This Testament is called a Testament in blood, because the Testament and Will of a man is confirmed, when the man is dead: ⟨p. 25⟩so Christ confirmed his Testament by his death. Moses saith, that life is in the blood: so the blood of Christ is the life of this Testament. 1If Christs blood had not been shed, this Testament made unto us had been unprofitable, as the Testament of a Father is unto his Son, if the Father should not die but live: therefore the Apostle saith, without shedding of blood, there is no remission of 2sins. Therefore the Testament or Covenant of the remission of our sins, is called the Testament in blood: the blood of Christ is the Seal of the Testament, which we have to show unto God, for the remission of our sins, and the two Sacraments are a Seal of that blood, to witness that it was shed.
