Secondly; The other indispensable necessity the Sinner hath of such a Righteousness to his Justification, is, For the securing of his Appearance in the day of Judgment.
The great Apostle, who had as fair a show for a legal Justification, as any other in the world, protesteth he dares not think of appearing without this positive Righteousness in the last and dreadful Judgment; But, oh that I may be found in him, not having mine own Righteousness, which is of the Law: In Him, in Christ, not in my self: in his Mediatory Righteousness, not in mine own Personal Righteousnesses; away with them, they are but filthy Rags, rotten Clouts, dog's meat in comparison of Christ's Robes: Give me the Righteousness which is of God by Faith; of Gods Ordination, and of Faith's Application: That, that [the Righteousness of the Law fulfilled by Christ in my behalf]! and then the Law cannot say, black is mine eye; I fear it not: In that, if I appear not, I am undone for ever. Behold, here is the Sinner's necessity of such a Justification, Peace of Conscience, and Boldness in the day of Judgment.
