But notwithstanding all this, we cannot say, (1.) That Christ became as completely sinful as we. Or (2.) That we are as completely righteous as Christ; and that over and above the Guilt and Punishment of Sin, (which we grant was laid upon Christ) Sin it self simply considered, or the very Transgression it self, became the Sin or Transgression of Christ; and consequently that we are as completely Righteous as Christ, and Christ as completely Sinful as we are.

1. We dare not say, That Sin simply considered, as the very Transgression of the Law it self, as well as the Guilt and Punishment, became the very Sin and Transgression of Christ: For two things ⟨p. 380⟩are distinctly to be considered and differenced, With respect to the Law, and unto Sin. As to the Law, we are to consider in it, 1. Its Preceptive part. 2. Its Sanction.
