Theological Theses · §1109 · Louis Le Blanc de Beaulieu

Redeemed from curse; made God’s righteousness in him

Christ became a curse; God made him sin that we become God’s righteousness in him.

He is our wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, redemption; one obedience constitutes many just.

Latin

XVIII. Eodem quoque spectat quod dicit idem Apostolus Christum nos redemisse ab execratione legis, dum factus est pro nobis ipse execratio: Gal. 3. Deum fecisse peccatum eum qui non noverat peccatum, ut nos efficeremur justitia Dei in ipso: 2 Cor. 5. 21. Christum a Deo nobis factum fuisse sapientiam, justitiam, sanctificationem & redemptionem: 1 Cor. 1. 30. Et sicut per unius hominis inobedientiam peccatores constituti sunt multi, ita per unius obedientiam multos esse constituendos justos: Rom. 5. 19.

About this text

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.
