poflible, it did not feem expedient to the wifdom of God J for it is evident, from what has taken place in fa(fl:, that he might become a finful creature. But yet, his endowments were fuch as that he was every way fitted to anfwer the ends for which he was created. This, as we have feen, is the account the Scripture has given us of the matter. His bodily machine was cu- noufly fuited to be a fit inflrumcnt for his foul to ad by; and his foul was furnifhed with intel- leflual and moral faculties..., rendering him capable of attaining to an aclual refemblance of the Deity in knowledge, holinefs, and happinefs ; and of growing perpetually in this likenefs to the higheft degrees attainable by a creature of his order in the creation. The pofterity of Adam come into exiflence, not immediately^ but by the intervention of an eftahlijhed courfe of nature. And to this it is owing, that exiflence is handed to them in a lefs ferfe5f ftate than that in which it was communi- cated to the one man, Adam.
