Him that knew not sin, he made sin for us, that we through him might be made the righteousness of God Also in his Epistle to the Colossians he saith, It pleased the father that in Christ all fullness should dwell, and by him to reconcile all things unto him self, having set at peace through the blood of his cross by him, both things in earth and things in heaven. These I suppose, are testimonies sufficiently evident, to prove that upon Christ are laid our sins, with the curse or condemnation due unto our offences, and that Christ by his blood hath cleansed our sins, and by his death hath vanquished death, and the devil the author of death, and taken away the punishment due unto us.1
