I answer that Christ's Death is procurative of all Graces and particularly of Faith, so far as it is a Price; and it is a Price so far, as it was paid down by Christ and accepted by God for that purpose: for in a Price there must be both Sufficientia nuda consisting in the intrinsical value of the thing, and Sufficientia ordinata consisting in the intentional paying and receiving that thing as a Price. Now Christ's death was paid down by him and accepted by God as a Price with a double respect. As for all men it was paid and accepted as a Price, so far forth, as to procure for them a ground for their Faith, viz. that they might be saved on Gospel-terms. And as for the Elect it was further paid and accepted as a Price; so far as to procure the very Grace of Faith for them. Thus our Saviour Christ (who best knew both upon what Terms he paid down the price, and upon what Terms his Father received it) opens this mysterious Dispensation; I came down from heaven (saith he) not to do my own will but the will of him that sent me, Joh. 6. 38. and what was that? As to all men, 'twas that every one that seeth the Son and believeth on him may have everlasting life, Ver. 40. and as to the Elect, ⟨p. 300⟩'twas that all those should by faith come unto him, Ver. 37. and never be lost, Ver. 39. Christ then died for all men, not so far forth as to procure the Grace of Faith, but so far forth as to procure Salvation on Gospel-terms for them; therefore, albeit all do not believe, it follows not either that Christ did not at all die for them, or that he loseth part of his Purchase. Christ's Death is procurative of Faith, not in reference to all, but to the Elect.
