By Satisfaction I understand, the whole obedience of Christ unto the very death, which is both active and passive, by which we are justified; Heb. 10.10. Phil. 2.8. that righteousness of Christ (wrought in his satisfaction) is imputed, which satisfies the Law and divine Justice, Gal. 4.1, 2, 3, 4. which is both active and passive: the very reason why the Law requires perfect obedience of us, which we cannot possibly bring before God; is, that we might seek for it in Christ, that fulfilled all righteousness: and therefore he is called the end of the Law for righteousness, Rom. 10.3, 4. And it is strange that any should deny Justification by Christs active obedience, upon this ⟨p. 259⟩ground; viz. because that by the works of the Law (which satisfy the Law) shall no sinner be justified; and yet withal, say that we are justified by that which satisfies the Law.
