Christs eternal existence, and the dignity of his person asserted and proved in opposition…

1, His victory over sin: That he hath perfectly satisfied for sin, and appeased the wrath of God, who is willing to be reconciled with all those that come to the Faith and Obedience of the Gospel, which could not be if Christ had remained under the power of death, for the Apostle saith, 1 Cor. 15.17. If Christ had not risen ye are yet in your sins, that is, God is not pacified, there is no sufficient means of atonement or foundation laid for our Reconciliation with ⟨p. 155⟩him but his Resurrection declareth that he is fully satisfied with the ransom paid for sinners by Jesus Christ, for it was in effect the releasing of our Surety out of Prison, so it is said, Rom. 4.15. He was delivered for our offences, and raised up for our Justification: he dyed to expiate and do away sin, and his Resurrection showeth it was a sufficient Ransom, and therefore he can apply the virtue of it to us.
