2. As to the sufficiency of his Satisfaction, or expiatory Sacrifice, or of whatsoever he was to do as satisfier of Justice: and so I confess he is a perfect Saviour. And do not all the opposers confess that Christs Death was sufficient for All men? and all till a few of late do confess that Christ died for all men quoad sufficientiam ⟨p. 414⟩pretii: And if it be sufficient for all men, even for those that perish, then he is quoad satisfactionis vel pretii sufficientiam a perfect Saviour to all men: For they perish not through any Imperfection or Insufficiency in Christs Satisfaction or Sacrifice.
3. Or else it is in regard of the Application of his benefits, and conveyance of the fruits of his Death, that he is said to be [a perfect Saviour to all that he died for.]
