By the name of this ransom, which we are said to have in Christ, 1we mean that full and accomplished redemption: in as much as it containeth not only remission of sins in this life, but also in the life to come after this, a perfect deliverance from all ill, and from the bondage of all corruption: so that there is no ransom, which we have not in Christ our most perfect redeemer, who as he is made unto us by God our wisdom, righteousness, & sanctification, so also our redemption.
