How Christ is made ours; or by what means this or that man, hath that benefit by him, us to stand just before God now, and in the day of judgement.
1. I believe,1 we being sinful Creatures in our selves, that no good thing done by us, can procure of God the imputation of the righteousness of Jesus Christ. But that the imputation thereof, is an act of grace, a free gift without our deserving. Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Jesus Christ. He called us, and saved us, with an holy calling; Not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus. Rom. 3.24. chap. 5.17. 2 Tim. 1 9.
