Prop. LVI. When we say that Christ did Die for men conditionally, as to his Death it self, and the satisfaction to Justice immediately thence flowing; we cannot intend it, or truly say so: Nor yet as to the granting of his Universal Conditional pardon: For Christ absolutely procured all these. But we mean it only in regard of Actual Remission, Justification and Salvation. The Covenant or Promise is indeed Conditional; that is, there are conditions required on our part to the fulfilling of it, that we may have right to the Benefit: But no conditions for the granting of it; ⟨p. 65⟩much less for Christs Actual Dying and Satisfying.
Prop. LVII. Though it be disputable whether God have any Decretive will de eventu, properly Conditional, yet is it beyond all doubt that he hath a Conditional will de Debito, and Conditional Laws; and it being to God as Legislator that Christ made Satisfaction, and it being by Law that the Dueness of Justification and Salvation is conveyed to believers, and the Dueness of Punishment to Unbelievers, therefore it is very proper to say, that Christ by his Death hath purchased Salvation for all Men Conditionally.
Prop. LVIII. Yea, it is undoubted that the very Decretive Will of God de Eventu applicationis is Conditional in this sense; that Faith and Repentance are Decreed by God to be Conditions of Justification and Salvation, but not conditions of Gods act of Decreeing (Twice saith that in this Sense no man denieth Gods will to be conditional, Vid. Consid. of Sin. Dort. and Arles, &c. Page 61. And against Cotton Page 74.)
