For (that which was impossible to the Law, ⟨p. 523⟩inasmuch as it was weak because of the flesh) God sending his own Son in the similitude of sinful flesh, for sin, condemned sin in the flesh, that the righteousness of the Law might be fulfilled in us, which walk not after the flesh, but after the spirit. 1He made him to be sin for us, which knew no sin, that we should be made the righteousness of God in him.
For (that which was impossible to the Law, ⟨p. 523⟩inasmuch as it was weake because of the flesh) God sending his owne Sonne in the similitude of sinfull flesh, for sinne, condemned sinne in the flesh, that the righteousnesse of the Law might be fulfilled in us, which walk not after the flesh, but after the spirit. 1He made him to be sin for us, which knew no sin, that we should be made the righteousnesse of God in him.
And this fulfilling of the types of the Law, and the paying of that punishment which we did owe, is that very abrogating of the Law, whereof we have spoken. §33. Christ fulfilleth the Law in us by his Spirit, reforming us by him unto the image of God, that we also may in this life begin internal and external obedience, which the Law requireth of us, and may perform the same whole and entire in the life to come.
