Imputed obedience alone absolves and adopts
Christ’s donated, imputed obedience is the sole righteousness that absolves and adopts.
By it we escape due perdition and become heirs of eternal life.
Latin XIV. Illa vero Christi obedientia sic nobis donata atque imputata, ea sola justitia est propter quam & cujus merito a reatu peccatorum nostrorum absolvimur, & perditionem aeternam nobis debitam effugimus, adeoque ex filiis irae & perditionis, quales omnes per naturam sumus, in Dei filios & vitae aeternae haeredes adoptamur.

About this text Le Blanc wrote in the mid-seventeenth century as Reformed professor at the Academy of Sedan. This is not a patristic work.
Louis Le Blanc, a Reformed professor at Sedan, sets out theology in theses argued against Rome: Scripture, faith, grace, free choice, good works and the saints.
This volume holds the Theses on Theology I–XLIII and On Faith I–XXII, in eighteen sections.
Louis Le Blanc de Beaulieu (1614–1675) was minister and professor of theology at the Academy of Sedan, the Reformed school on France's eastern border. His Theses were disputed by students over many years and collected in a London folio (1675).
The Theological Theses range across the whole Reformed system — Scripture, God, predestination, grace, and justifying faith — in the crisp thesis-and-proof form of the seventeenth-century schools.
Date 1675 AD (Sedan theses; London collection)
No modern English.
