Of Communion with God the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost

1. Jesus Christ in his undertaking of the work of our Reconciliation with God, for which cause he came into the world, and §. 11 the Accomplishment of it by his death, was constituted and considered as a Common public person, in the stead of them for whose Reconciliation to God He suffered. Hence He is the Mediator between God and Man, 1 Tim. 2. 5. that is, one who undertook to God for us, as the next words manifest, v. 6. and gave himself a Ransom for all: And the Surety of the new Covenant, Heb. 7. 22. undertaking for, and on the behalf of them with whom that Covenant was made; Hence he is said to be given for a Covenant to the people, Isa. 42. 6. and a leader, 49. 8. He was the second Adam, 1 Cor. 15. 45, 47. to all Ends and purposes of Righteousness to his spiritual seed; as the first Adam was of sin to his natural seed, Rom. 5. 15, 16, 17, 18, 19.
