vtterly ouerthroweth our free Iusti∣fication by Christs righteousnesse, performed by himselfe, and impu∣ted vnto vs, as done by our selues. For if Adams sinne is passed ouer * 1.1 vnto vs, his posteritie, by imitation onely, then also doth it follow that wee haue no other profit by this righteousnesse of Christ performed by him for vs, then that he is set be∣fore vs for an example to follow: for in what sort wee are made partakers of Adams transgression to our con∣demnation, in the same sort we are made partakers of Christs righte∣ousnesse to our Iustification. And so againe in what sort we are made par∣takers of Christs righteousnesse to our Iustification: in the same sort wee are made partakers of Adams transgression to our condemnation. And therefore as we being in Christ as our head and roote, are iustified by the communication of his righ∣teousnesse (it being imputed to vs as done by our selues) because that in

him and by him, by reason of our vnion with him we haue fulfilled the Law, and satisfied Gods iustice. So wee being come of Adam as the roote of all mankinde, originally are guiltie of his transgression, because that in him and by him, by reason of our vnion vvith him see haue all sinned.
