8. Adam was the Father of all mankind, from whom they spring, but he did not so represent the Persons of all that were to spring of him, as if his obedience without their own would have justified any of them at age. If Adam had not sinned, Cain should have been condemned if he sinned; and so others.
9. The first Law being broken, man was made uncapable of either part of Justification by it; either as one that sinned not, or as one that was not by it to be condemned. And so it was no more to him a Promise or Covenant of Life; the Condition being now become impossible, and so no condition; and the threatening becoming as a Sentence.

10. This Law neither gave, mentioned or owned any Surety, Substitute, or Mediator.
