8. Ponum est ex causis integris; malum ex partiali: Any defe•t maketh sin, but good must have entire causes. Adams sin causeth Original sin in all, ex privatione causationis boni: But if Adam had not sinned, every sin of their own would have made his Children unrighteous.
9. Christ having suffered in the common nature of man so far did it in their stead, and if you will needs so call it, so far represented fallen mankind, as that if they will personally receive him by faith, in the New Covenant, they shall not perish for Adams sin (or their own) (supposing that the parent is the accepter for the Infant) none perish for Original sin alone, without the addition of neglected and refused grace and remedy.
10. It is not only the Spiritual off-spring that Christ was a second Adam to, but partly to all mankind: For by a resurrection (though not to glory) all men are made alive by Christ, Joh. 5.22, 23, 29. 1 Cor. 15. And all have a general conditional reconciliation and pardon, 2 Cor. 5.19, 20. Joh. 3.16. So that actual Justification resulteth to no man from Christs mere representation of him, but from his free donation by the New Covenant.
