The Eight Demonstration.
IN the next place; That Jesus Christ by what he hath done, hath paid full price to God for Sinners, and obtained Eternal Redemption for them, is evident; Because we are exhorted to wait for, and to expect the full and glorious Enjoyment of that Eternal Redemption, at the second Coming of the Lord from Heaven: Let your loins be girded about, and your Lights burning, and you your selves like unto men that wait for their Lord, that when he cometh and knocketh, ye may open unto him immediately, Luk. 12. 35, 36.
Jesus Christ hath obtained by his Blood Eternal Redemption for us, and hath taken it up now in the Heavens▪ is (as I have showed) preparing for us there Everlasting Mansions of rest; and then he will come again for us.
