Gospel reconciliation, or, Christ's trumpet of peace to the world

The Fourth thing from thence is this. That if it be in Christ, then as it is sure; so it is full. Indeed were it in any other way that God did reveal Reconciliation to us then in Christ, we might be afraid that there were something in the heart of God against it, that the heart of God did not fully close with us, & to be fully Reconciled with us: but when we hear what God hath done to Reconcile us to himself; what a price he hath paid for it, what cost he hath been at to accomplish it, and that his own Son hath undertaken to bring us and the Father together, and so to make up this Reconciliation; then we may conclude it a full, and perfect Reconciliation. Jesus Christ would never undertake such a work, but he would Complete it, and he hath Completed it; and therefore when you hear this word of the Gospel that we are Reconciled to God in Christ, we may conclude, that the work is a full, and a complete work, because it is done in him. That is another Consequence.
