If we exhibit to view the divine law, in its strictness and spirituality, we are to remember Christ, ‘as the end of the law for righteousness.’ If we denounce its dreadful ‘curses against every one that continues not in all things written in the book of the law to do them;’ ’tis that ‘the law, as a schoolmaster, may bring them to Christ, that they may be justified by faith.’ If we treat of gospel-promises, and gospel-blessings, we must consider them as purchased by the blood, and distributed by the bounty and grace of Christ. If we discourse upon divine faith, Christ must be considered as ‘the author and finisher,’ as well as the ‘direct object of it.’ If we treat of repentance, ’tis ‘Christ exalted at the right hand of God,’ that must give it, and the remission of sins; and Christ crucified, and viewed by faith, that must be the first spring of it.
