Reas. 2. From the perfection of Christ's Obedience. His active obedience was perfect, He did fulfil all that the Law required to be done, Mat. 3. 15. He never did transgress the Law in any one particular. Though he lived in this world for the space of Thirty years and upwards, yet he never did commit the least sin, in Thought, Word, or Deed. Such an High-Priest became us, who is holy, harmless, separate from sinners. And as to that singular Law of a Redeemer, he did yield perfect Obedience thereunto. Hence was his passive Obedience. It was not the moral Law but that special Law of a Redeemer which required that Christ should become subject unto Death. And thus was He Obedient to the very utmost extent ⟨p. 124⟩of this Law. Phil. 2. 7.
