Q. 3. How did Christ deliver us from this Misery?
A. First, By Price. Sec•udly, By Power. By Price. 1 Pet. 1.18, 19. Ye are not redeemed with silver and gold from your vain conversation, received by tradition from your fathers: but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish, and ⟨p. 47⟩without spot. By power. Col. 1.13. Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the Kingdom of his dear son.
Q. 4. When was the Redemption wrought by Christ?
A. It was decreed from Eternity; it was actually wrought on the Cross. Col. 1.20. And having made peace through the blood of his cross by him to reconcile all things unto him self, by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.
