I shall therefore take one Argument from some of the testimonies before produced in the confirmation of this Sacred Truth, and proceed to remove the objections that are commonly banded against it.
If the Lord Christ according to the Will of the Father, and by his own counsel and choice, was substituted, and did substitute himself as the Mediator of the Covenant, in the room and in the stead of sinners that they might be saved, and therein bare ⟨p. 168⟩their sins, or the punishment due unto their sins, by undergoing the curse and penalty of the Law, and therein also according to the Will of God offered up himself for a propitiatory, expiatory Sacrifice to make Atonement for sin, and Reconciliation for sinners, that the Justice of God being appeased, and the Law fulfilled, they might go free, or be delivered from the wrath to come; and if therein also he paid a real satisfactory price for their Redemption; then he made satisfaction to God for sin. For these are the things that we intend by that expression, of satisfaction. But now all those things are openly, and fully witnessed unto in the Testimonies before produced; as may be observed by suiting some of them unto the several particulars here asserted.
