§ I Cor. XV. 3. II I Cor. vi. 20. The Work of Redemption. . 309 in conflict with another statement, namely, that we are saved by grace. The former has reference to the immediate cause ; the latter to the source and primary cause of the benefit. If we ask the Apostle as to the connection between the propitiatory death of the Lord and the justification of the sinner, he replies that the righteousness in which alone the sinner can glory is an imputed righteousness, that of the righteous and holy C...hrist. By virtue of the law of an innermost communion of life, all which is ours becomes His, and all which is His becomes ours. He is treated as personal sin,* in order that sinners in Him may be regarded and treated as righteous. He bears on the cross the curse of the law, in order that He may redeem us therefrom.f Paul, then, doubtless conceives of the Lord g;s dying on behalf of (virep), and at the same time instead of {e.g., avTikvrpov), but of whom ? In general he mentions " ungodly ones,"J without any restriction assures that God wills the salvation of all men, and glories in Christ as the Mediator — a word which is found only with Paul, and in the Epistle to the Hebrews — between God and men.§ But especially is it Christians who know that One has died for them all, in consequence of which they now all live.|| There is no contradiction between the one statement and the other, if we simply observe a just distinction between the purport and the fruit of the Lord's propitiatory death.
