1Now, we will show that this blessed peace, in all the branches of it, is founded in Christ; Christ is the cause and the foundation of it: for though these words were spoken at the Incarnation of Christ, yet we refer them to the whole work of his Mediator-ship, in the state of his abasement, and his state of exaltation, our peace is wholly founded upon him: for he was borne, and became man, and became sin, that is, a Sacrifice for sin for us, he became a curse for us, to stablish a peace, and to satisfy Gods anger; and then he rose again, to show that he had fully satisfied God anger, and that peace was fully established: therefore the holy Ghost was sent after the Resurrection, as a testimony, ⟨p. 257⟩that God was appeased, and now in heaven, he is ever there as a Priest, to make Intercession for us: so that Christ is our peace, from his Incarnation to his death, from thence to his Resurrection and Ascension, and Intercession, all peace with God, with Angels, and with creatures is stablished in Christ ▪
