15. But the exaltation of Christ, although it be an essentiall part of his mediation, yet it doth not pertaine to his merit, or satisfaction.
16. This satisfaction as touching the substance of the thing was perfect, in rigour of justice: yet it presupposeth grace, whereby Christ was called to perform this work, and whereby it being performed, it was accepted in our name and for our good: Lastly, whereby that is performed by covenant rewarding which was required in this Satisfaction, John 3. 16. So God loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, Rom. 3. 24. We are justified freely by his grace, through the redemption made in Jesus Christ, and 5. 15. The grace of God, and gift by grace, which is of that one man Jesus Christ.
