I wish they would consider that we say.
I wish they would consider that wee say.

Wee say there is a twofold Righteousnesse in Christ.
1. His essential and personal Righteousness, as God.
2. His Mediatory Righteousness, wrought as Mediator.
The first of these cannot be imputed to us; it is essential, but the latter of these (Justitia Mediatoria) his Mediatory Righteousness, or that Righteousness he wrought for us as Mediator, whereby he did subject himself to the Precepts, to the Penalties, Commands, and Curses; answering both Gods vindictive and rewarding Justice; This is communicated to us, and made ours, by virtue of which we stand recti in curia, justified in Gods sight, which is the first beauty Christ adorns his Church withal.
