1. By the Obedience of the life of Christ, I intend the universal §. 5 Conformity of the Lord Jesus Christ, as he was, or is in his being Mediator, to the whole will of God; and his complete actual fulfilling of the whole of every Law of God, or doing of all, that God in them required. He might have been perfectly holy by obedience to the Law of Creation, the Moral Law, as the Angels were: neither could any more as a man walking with God 1be required of him. But he submitted himself also to every Law or Ordinance that was introduced upon the occasion of sin, which on his own account He could not be subject to; it becoming him to fulfil ALL RIGHTEOUSNESS; Math. 3. 15. as he spake in reference to a newly instituted Ceremony.
