4thly. Take heed, there are some who tell you, Christ has fully satisfied for the Breach of the Law of the first Covenant, for the Sins of the whole World; so that all Men are cured of that Sickness, and delivered from that Curse, and put into a Capacity to be saved, if they will but exercise the Power of their own Will and Abilities; and that Men have power to believe and be regenerated, that sit under the preaching of the Gospel; and if they answer and discharge their part in Salvation, Christ's Death will become effectual to them, it being but on this Condition that Christ Jesus died to save Men, provided they answer those Terms the Gospel offers: Whereas it's evident, that Christ is not the End of the Law, as touching Righteousness to any Man, but only to such as believe, (I speak of the Adult); and the Gospel is not our Sickness, but our Cure; that condemns not, but as the healing Remedy is rejected, and the Curse of the Law abides upon all Unbelievers. And it is also as evident, that Man by Nature is dead in Sin, and must by an almighty and irresistible Power be quickened; which is done by the infusion of a Principle of Divine Life. Faith is God's Gift, and not the Condition of the Covenant of Grace; it is a Branch, or part of that Grace promised therein, upon the Condition of Christ's Satisfaction, not the Condition to be performed by the Creature, which procures the Blessings purchased; therefore no Condition then in order and connection in the Promises, that God will enable all his Elect to perform, by bestowing that Blessing upon them freely by his own Grace. The whole of our Salvation is by Christ; It is by Faith, that it might be by Grace, to the end the Promise might be sure to all the Seed; and all boasting might be excluded. 1And 'tis not an uncertain Salvation, that depends upon the doubtful and depraved Will of Man; but it is well ordered in all ⟨p. 95⟩things, and sure, by the infinite Grace, Wisdom, and Power of God. Nor did Christ die only for our Good who are saved, but in our stead also; so that Eternal Life comes to us in a way of Justice and Righteousness, as well as in a way of Mercy and Goodness. God was not rendered only reconcilable by the Death of his Son, which the Creature is to make effectual on his part, but he is absolutely reconciled: For if when we were Enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son;
