First, 1Because the Elect as […] as others, fell in the first Adam; and by virtue of the fall they were brought under Condemnation; Therefore as by the Offence of one, Judgment came upon all Men to Condemnation; even so &c. not one Soul of all his Posterity escaped; the Sentence, Judgment, and Condemnation past not upon Adam for his first Sin as a single Person, but as he was a common Head, a public Person, or the Representative of all Mankind that proceed from his loins: that Sentence that past upon Adam unto Condemnation, as he was a public Person, passed upon all Men in him, even the Elect as well as others; but the Sentence ⟨p. 13⟩passed upon Adam unto Condemnation as he was a public Person; therefore that Sentence passed upon all Men in him, even upon the Elect as well as others.
