I further tell them, this Name or Appellation [Christ] refers to our Lord as Mediator, or as he is God and Man: But the second Person was not God and Man when the World was made, or when the Law was given on Mount Sinai. Tho the second Person, or Christ as God, created the World, and with the Father and Holy Ghost is that one God that gave the Law; yet Christ the Anointed, or as Mediator, God in our Nature, actually existed not till the fullness of time was come.
