Of the third Mystery, It is by Christ's Sufferings:
3. Where ever sin is pardoned, Christ stands charged not only with the sin, but to suffer as much punishment for thy sin ⟨p. 14⟩as if thou wert eternally damned for them; it is not such a pardon, as that there is no punishment to be suffered, but whosoevers sins are pardoned, there is this agreement between God the Father and the Son, that his own Son shall suffer as much punishment, as if thou shouldst suffer eternally the wrath of God for thy sin, there is this done for thee; and surely that man is a blessed man for whom Christ is content to suffer so much as thy sins comes to, or else thou must have been eternally damned, this Religion and the Gospel teaches us, that we can never come to be pardoned by any other way.
