AS touching this word Satisfaction, which hath so long been retained in the Church of Christ, we must grant & believe undoubtedly, y• christ alone is the omnisufficient satisfaction for all our since unto God the father, by the sprinkling and effusion of his most precious blood 1which abideth & lasteth for ever so perfect, that he is able at all times to save them, that are sanctified with 2that one & omnisufficient oblation & Sacrifice of his most blessed body on the Altar of the Cross, and that not only from the fault, but also from the pain due and belonging unto the fault. Behold that ⟨image 40⟩lamb of God, saith S, John 3Baptist, which taketh away the sin of the world. S. John the Evangeliographe 4saith also: The blood of Jesus Christ Gods own Son, maketh us clean from all sin. Again, if any man sin, we have 5an advocate with God the father, Jesus Christ that righteous one, And he is the satisfaction for our since, not for our sins only, but also for all the whole world. By y• 6death of Christ are we reconciled to the father. Christ is our wisdom 7sanctification, righteousness & redemption. Christ is our peace. By the blood of Christ have we remission of our since. By Christ are all things reconciled to God, and 8by Christs blood are all things pacified & set at a stay both in heaven & in earth. Christ was broken for our since. Christ bare our since on his body upon the tree, ⟨image 40⟩by whose stripes we are made hole. 9Our since are forgiven us for Christs name. All the Prophets bear witness, that through the name of Christ, every one that believeth on him, shall receive remission of his sins. Thus see we that there 10is no satisfaction perfect & sufficient to God the father for our since, but only the death of Christ so that we may well say with the Apostle God forbid, that we should rejoice in 11any thing, but in the death of our LORD Jesus Christ. Who so ever repenteth him of his since from the very heart, & is sorry for them, lamenteth his misery, hungereth for strength to do the will of God, know ledgeth his offences, laboureth with all main to walk in a new life, needeth not to doubt, but y• Christ by his death hath abundantly satisfied to God the father for his since.
AS towchīg this word Satisfaccion, whiche hath so longe bene retayned in the Chyrche of Christ, we must gra unt & beleue vndoubtedly, y• christ alone is the omnisufficiēt satysfaccion for all oure synnes vnto God the father, by the sprynkelyng and effusiō of his moost precious bloud 1which abydeth & lasteth for euer so perfect, that he is able at all times to saue them, that are sanctified wt 2that one & omnisufficient oblaciō & Sacrifice of his moost blessed body on the Altare of the Crosse, and that not onlye from the faute, but also from the payne due and belon gynge vnto the faute. Behold that ⟨image 40⟩lambe of God, sayth S, Iohn Bap 3tist, which taketh awaye the synne of the worlde. S. Iohn the Euangeliographe 4sayth also: The bloud of Iesus Christ Gods owne sonne, makethe vs cleane from all synne. Agayne, yf any mā synne, we haue 5an aduocate wyth God the father, Iesus Christ that ryghteous one, And he is the satisfaccion for oure synnes, not for our sīnes only, but also for all the whole worlde. By y• 6death of Christe are we reconcyled to the father. Christ is our wisdom 7sanctificacion, ryghteousnes & redemcion. Christe is oure peace. By the bloud of Christ haue we remission of oure synnes. By Christ are all thynges recōcyled to God, and 8by Christes bloude are all thynges pacifyed & set at a stay both in heauen & in earth. Christe was broken for oure synnes. Christe bare oure synnes on his body vpon the tree, ⟨image 40⟩by whose stripes we are made hole. 9Oure synnes are forgyuen vs for Christes name. All the Prophetes beare wytnesse, that thorowe the name of Christ, euery one that bele ueth on him, shall receyue remissiō of his sines. Thus se we that there
