Out of this fountain flow all the excellent blessings that believers either have, or hope for. Had it not been for this, there had been no such things in rerum natura as Justification, Adoption, Salvation, &c. peace with God, and hopes of glory, pardon of sin, and divine acceptation: These and all other our best mercies, had been but so many entia rationis, mere conceits. A man (as one saith) might have haply imagined such things as these, as he may golden Mountains, and Rivers of liquid gold, and rocks of Diamonds: but these things could never have had any real existence extramentem, had not Christ offered up himself a Sacrifice to God for us. It is the blood of Christ, who through the eternal spirit, offered up himself without spot to God, that purges the Conscience from dead works. Heb. 9.14. That is, from the sentence of condemnation ⟨p. 141⟩and death, as it is reflected by Conscience, for our works sake.
