Q. Why is not a Christian so under the Law as a Covenant of life, so as if he breaks it by the least sin he shall die for it?
A. Because Jesus Christ hath kept it perfectly for him, Rom. 8. 3, 4. Rom. 5. 20, 21.
A. Because Iesus Christ hath kept it perfectly for him, Rom. 8. 3, 4. Rom. 5. 20, 21.
Q. Can any man keep the Law perfectly in this life?
A. No, for the unregenerate wanting the Spirit of Life, cannot perfect an act of life in obedience to it. The regenerate having the Spirit but in part, perform it only imperfectly, Rom. 8. 7. Rom 7. 21.
