His Priesthood consisteth of two partes: Satisfaction, ⟨image 30⟩and intercession.
Satisfaction, is that, whereby Christ is a full propitiation to his Father, for the elect. Job. 33.23. If there be a messenger with him, or an interpreter, one of a thousand to declare unto man his righteousness, then will he have mercy upon him, and will say, deliver him, that he go not down into the pit, for I have found a Reconciliation. Rom. 3.24. And are justified freely by his grace, through the Redemption that is in Christ Jesus, 25. whom God hath set forth to be a reconciliation through faith in his blood. 1. Joh. 2.2. He is a propitiation for our sins.
