Looking unto Jesus a view of the everlasting gospel, or, the souls eying of…

4. There is in it not only a true, but a copious, and full satisfaction; Christ's death and blood is superabundant to our sins; The grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant 1. Tim. 1.14. [Greek or Hebrew] it was over-full, redundant, more than enough. Many an humble soul is apt enough to complain, Oh if I had not been so great a sinner, if I had not committed such and such transgressions, there might have been hope; This is to undervalue Christ's redemption, this is to think there is more in sin to damn, than in Christ's sufferings to save; whereas all thy Sins to Christ are but as a little cloud to the glorious Sun; yea, all the Sins of all the men in the world, are but to Christs merits as a drop to the Ocean. I speak not this to encourage the presumptuous sinner; for alas, he hath no part in this satisfaction; but to comfort the humble sinner, who is loaden with the sense of his Sins; what though they were a burden greater than he can bear? yet they are not a burden greater than Christ can bear; there is in Christ's blood an infinite treasure, able to sanctify thee, and all the World, there is in Christs death a ransom, a counterprice sufficient to redeem all the sinners, that ever were, or ever shall be; the price is of that nature, that it is not diminished, though it be extended to never so many; as the Sun hath fullness of light to enlighten all the world; and if the blind do not see by it, it is no any scarcity of light in the Sun, but by reason of his own indisposition; so if all men are not acquitted by Christ's death, it's not because that was insufficient, as if it had not virtue enough to reach them as well as others, but because they by their unbelief do reject this remedy. Oh what large room hath saith to expatiate in! sit down, and dive, and dive, yet thou canst not come to the bottom of Christ's blood; but as the Prophet Ezekiel saw still more and greater abominations, so mayest thou in the sufferings of Christ observe more and more fullness. ⟨p. 385⟩See what a notable opposition the Apostle makes, Rom. 5.15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21. between the first and second Adam; proving at large that Christ doth super-abound in the fruits of his grace, above the first Adam in the fruits of his sin; he calls it grace, and the abundance of grace, and this abundance of grace reigneth to life;
