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

Prop. LV. All that conditional Pardon with the means of Grace, and common Mercies which the Non-elect do actually receive in time, were purposed for them before time, and intended to them as Fruits of Christs Death; and so far even in regard of his Purpose de eventu applicationis, Christ may be said to Die for them, (besides the foresaid satisfaction:) For God being Rector per Leges deals with men on Law terms, and gives Mercies, and Executes Justice only according to his Laws.
