I hope if we prove that God doth it, none dare say it is unjust. If he be not Just he is not God. And that God doth it I prove thus.
1. Those that God Hateth, and are Children of Wrath, and without Hope, and without God in the World, and Strangers to the Covenant of Promises, and Aliens to the Common-Wealth of Israel, &c. are certainly obliged to punishment: But such many have been and still are, for whom Christ Died, Ergo &c. God hateth all the workers of Iniquity, and they are all by Nature Children of Wrath, &c. But many that Christ Died for, are before Regeneration workers of Iniquity, Ergo, &c.
2. All that are under the Curse of the Law are obliged to punishment. But many that Christ Died for, were under the Curse of the ⟨p. 399⟩Law since his Death, undertaken (when his satisfaction was in force) yea since his actual suffering; Ergo. &c. Many Scriptures show both that we were under the Curse of the Law when Christ actually suffered, and that all the Elect are under it still as well as others, till their conversion. I am loth to trouble the Reader in heaping up Testimonies.
