Some abuse the similitude of a Head and Members; whereas Natural Head and Members make one Natural Body; but so do not Christ and Believers: And a Political Head and Members are distinct persons, and one is not guiltless, righteous, wise or good, because the other is so. But of this more before, and elsewhere. Some here abuse the similitude of Christs being the second Adam, which you here (though not to this Error) insist upon. And then they feign us, 1. To have bee• otherwise in Adam than we were; 2. And his sin to be otherwise imputed to us than it was; And 3. The similitude to extend further than it doth.
