Our Saviour, he is our Advocate, undertakes our cause; pleads for us, and prevails: gives in so full satisfaction unto divine Justice, that neither sin, nor world, nor Satan, can be heard against us. These sins have been committed, these dishonours done, these evils practised, says Satan, and the world can witness, and their own consciences. Yea says divine Justice: Their Advocate hath been here, hath plainly and truly related all these; they are not new, and hath fully answered and satisfied to the utmost that can be exacted. Rom. 8.34. Here is the ground of the Apostles Triumph: Who is he that condemneth? it is Christ that died, nay makes Intercession for us. So that there is neither condemnation nor accusation that can get any hearing against them, ⟨p. 16⟩for they are all before discovered▪ and answered: the Lord Christ hath intelligence of their intendments, and disappoints them wholly.
