Now in this application of the blood of Christ there are two acts, — an act of God, and an act of ours : both these are absolutely necessary to our enjoving the blessings purchased by the blood of Christ. Particularly, 1. God sprinkles this blood upon ns, — This is by an act of imputation, a foundation for which was laid in the substitution of Christ in our room and stead. The Lord therefore is said to lay on him the iniquities of us all, Isa. Liii. 6. And the Apostle says, ihat lie his own sel...f bare our sins in his oivn body on the tree, I Pet. Ii. 24. And again, 2 Cor. V. 21. He hath made him to be sin for us. He sufiered and died as a sinner, though he was not actually so. He bore the punishment which the sins of his people deserved; and this opens a way for God's dealing with us according to the infinite virtue and merit of the Redeemer's sacrifice, or for imputing his righteousness to us. Upon the whole, when Christ was obeying the law, and suffering its penalty, (lod considered Christ as the representa- tive of his people; and therefore in his own time, in a perfect consistency with his justice, and by an act of his grace, he imputes this righteousness to us, or makes it ours, so as eft'ec- tually to answer all the ends and purposes for wliich it was appointed.
