Planelogia, a succinct and seasonable discourse of the occasions, causes, nature, rise, growth, and remedies of mental errors written some months since, and now made public, both for the healing and prevention of the sins and calamities which have broken in this way upon the churches of Christ, to the great scandal of religion, hardening of the wicked, and obstruction of Reformation : whereunto are subjoined by way of appendix : I.

Error VI.
That God is not angry with the Elect, nor doth he smite them for their Sins; and to say that he doth so, is an injurious reflection upon the Justice of God, who hath ⟨p. 366⟩received full satisfaction for all their Sins from the hand of Christ.
That God is not angry with the Elect, nor doth he smite them for their Sins; and to say that he doth so, is an injurious reflection upon the Iustice of God, who hath ⟨p. 366⟩received full satisfaction for all their Sins from the hand of Christ.
There are several Mistakes and Errors in these Assertions; and I suppose our Antinomians were led into them, (1.) By their abhorrence of the Popish Doctrine, which errs more dangerously in the other extreme: for they wickedly assert our Sufferings to be satisfactory for our Sins, which is the ground of Popish Penances, and voluntary Self-castigations. (2.) From a groundless apprehension, That God's Corrections of us for our Sins, are inconsistent with the fullness of Christ's satisfaction for them. Christ having paid all our Debts, and dissolved our Obligations to all punishment, it cannot consist with the Justice of God to lay any Rod upon us for our Sins after Christ hath born all that our Sins deserved.
