(1.) And first we thankfully acknowledge the Lord Jesus Christ to be the Surety of the New Testament, Heb. 7. 22. and that as such, all the Guilt and Punishment of our Sins, was laid upon him, Isa. 53. 5, 6. That is, God imputed, and he bare it in our room and stead. God the Father, as Supreme Law-giver, and Judge of all, upon the Transgression of the Law, admitted the Sponsion or Suretyship of Christ, to answer for the sins of men, Heb. 10. 5, 6, 7. And for this very end he was made under the Law, Gal. 4. 4, 5. And that Christ voluntarily took it upon him to answer as our Surety, whatsoever the Law could lay to our charge; whence it became just and righteous that he should suffer.

(2.) We say, That God by laying upon, or imputing the Guilt of our Sins to Christ, thereby our Sins became legally his; as the Debt is legally the Sureties Debt, tho he never borrowed one farthing of it: Thus God laid, and Christ took our Sins upon him, tho in him was no sin,
