4 The next Work of the Spirit, is to convince the soul of the perfection of Christs Righteousness, and of the All-sufficiency of his Sacrifice; that his righteousness is a most perfect and exact righteousness; that his sacrifice upon the Cross was a full satisfaction to Gods Justice, for the sins of all the Elect, it being the sacrifice of the Son of God, even of him that was God, as well as Man; which indeed added an infinite value to all which Christ did, and suffered for mans Redemption, in which respect the redemption wrought by Christ is called plenteous redemption; 1enough and enough for all the sins of his people, how many or how heinous soever they were. Now, examine whether thou hast found this work of the Spirit upon thy soul, so that thou art convinced thoroughly, as of thine own unrighteousness, so of the perfection of Christs righteousness, and of the all-sufficiency of his Sacrifice, which far exceedeth the merits of thy sins.
