But Secondly,1 The Antinomian in that place pag. 129. doth fully answer himself, All chastisement (saith he) for sin, needful for the making perfect peace between God and his justified children, was laid upon him: very true, Therefore say we, though these chastisements be for sin, yet they are not upon the godly as upon Christ, they are not to satisfy Gods justice, to work a reconciliation, but only to humble them in themselves, and make them the better feel how much they are beholding to Christ who bore so much wrath for them.
