Objection. How shall our Saviour CHRIST be the salvation of all men, seeing he was not man at all times, for how can his blood deliver a man, when it was not shed?
Obiection. How shall our Sauiour CHRIST be the saluation of all men, seeing hee was not man at all times, for how can his bloud deliuer a man, when it was not shedde?
Answer. His blood shed in due time hath such power and strength, because it is not the blood of man, but of ⟨p. 52⟩God & therefore it reacheth to all the times before, it is not only belonging to them, that come after, but to Adam and the Fathers, and therefore it is said that the death of our Saviour CHRIST reacheth to the1 former sins.
