THESIS XXXII.
IF there be any particular sins against the new Covenant, which are not also against the old; or if any sins be considerable in any of their respects, as against the Gospel only, then Christs death was not to satisfy for any such sins so considered: For where no death is threatened, there none is explicitly due, nor should be executed; and where it is not so due to the sinner, nor should have been executed on him, there it could not be required of Christ, nor executed on him: But the Gospel threateneth not death to any sin, but final unbelief and rebellion, (and for that Christ never dyed, as I shall show anon,) therefore Christ died not for any sin as against the Gospel, nor suffered that which is no where threatened.
