Sect. 10. 9. Should I prove, that Christ is our King, and Ruleth and Judgeth by his own Law, and hath not made us Lawless, and all Judgment on Rule is now committed to him, and that the very Law of Nature, is now his Law; and also the Law of Supernatural Revelation, called by Paul, the Law o• Christ, the Law of Faith and of Gr••• ; and by James, the Law of Liberty; the whole scope of the Gospel, s•veth me that labour.

Sect. 11. 10. Should I prove, that Christ in •sse objectivo, as the Object of Faith, is the very specifying form of that Faith it self; and so, that to be Justified by the Object as such, and not by that Faith it self, is a notorious putid Contradiction; or should I stand to prove that Faith it self, is said by Paul, to be Imputed for Righteousness in mere subordination to the meritorious Sacrifice and Righteousness of Christ, and in conjunction with Free Pardon and Adoption purchased by Christ; how needless a work is this made by the Text?
