Other mens debts are answered diverse ways: some answer them simply as redeemers, some as sureties. He that answers them as a surety, must pay the1 same sum of money that the debtor oweth. Now Christ is not only our Mediator, but our surety, Heb. 7. 22. and hence the mediation ⟨p. 281⟩of Christ is called a propitiation. Rom. 3. 25. 1 Joh. 2. 2. and the surety is of debt and justice to make full satisfaction, because he hath voluntarily promised it, and God the Father did in justice exact it. Rom. 3. 24, 25. and 8. 32.
