Hereby it appeareth that Christ doth most righteously order the affairs of his Kingdom: In this respect he is styled a righteous Judge, 2 Tim. 4. 3. and a righteous ⟨p. 78⟩branch: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, The Lord our righteousness, Jer. 23. 5, 6. Justice and Judgement are the habitation of his Throne, Psa. 89. 14. His Laws and Statutes are all righteous, Psa. 19. 7. &c. His word, which in special is counted to be his Sceptre, teacheth all righteousness, maketh his subjects righteous, and leadeth them in that only right way which bringeth them to the Crown of righteousness; There is no true righteousness but that which is found in this Kingdom; The members of this Kingdom are the only true righteous men, all other are but righteous in show: The rewards which Christ giveth, and the judgements which he executeth are all righteous.
