Universal redemption of mankind, by the Lord Jesus Christ stated and cleared by the…

By what hath been said it may appear that Faith is not the proper effect of satisfaction as satisfaction, nor is it any near or inseparable effect of satisfaction as it is meritorious. God did not give Christ Faith for his bloodshed in exchange; the thing that God was to give the Son for his satisfaction, was Dominion and Rule of the Redeemed Creature, and power therein to use what means he saw fit for the bringing in of Souls to himself, even to send forth so much of his word and Spirit as he pleased; both the Father and Son resolving from Eternity to prevail infallibly with all the Elect. But never did Christ desire at his Fathers hands, that all whom he satisfied for, should be infallibly and irresistibly brought to believe; nor did God ever grant or promise any such thing. Jesus Christ as a Ransom dyed for all, and as Rector per Leges, or Legislator he hath conveyed the Fruits of his death to all; that is, those Fruits which it appertained to him as Legislator to convey, which is right to what his New Law or Covenant doth promise. But those Mercies which he gives as ⟨p. 426⟩Dominus Absolutus, arbitrarily besides or above his engagement, he neither gives nor ever intended to give to all that he dyed for; no nor to all his Elect doth he give all those fruits of his death, nor for ought I know to any in the same degree; for these are but remotely the Fruits of Christ's death, and not constant nor inseparable Fruits. Peruse the foresaid Table of the Fruits of Christs death, and it will show you which the mercies be that Christ gives by Law, and which arbitrarily, as besides his engagement.
