1. That there are no spiritual distinguishing fruits of Redemption ascribed to those false Teachers, but only common gifts of light and knowledge which Christ hath purchased for many for whom he did not make his Soul a Ransom.
2. That else the Redemption of any by the blood of Christ, cannot be a peculiar aggravation of the sins of any, because they say, he died for all: and yet this buying of the false Teachers is held out as an aggravation of their sin in particular.
Ans. 1. It is here merely begged and never was yet proved, that Christ hath purchased common gifts of light and knowledge for men without making his Soul a Ransom, i. e. his Life a satisfaction for them, and that all that he satisfied for have distinguishing fruits of Redemption. It is easier to take these as certainties than to prove them so.
