2. From what evils he saveth or delivereth.
HE delivereth us from all evils both of crime, and pain, most fully and perfectly. From the evil of crime, for so the Angel testifieth. He shall save his people from their sins. The blood of Jesus Christ cleanseth us from all sin; that is, that it may not be imputed unto us,1 and that it may not reign in us, but be abolished, and so we at length leave off to sin. Wherefore also he delivereth us from all pain, and punishment. For the cause being taken away which is sin, the effect is taken away, which is punishment.2 Now then there is no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus. I give unto them eternal life. This salvation then, which this our Saviour Jesus Christ bringeth us, is righteousness and life everlasting. Seventy weeks, are determined to finish the wickedness, and to seal up the sins, and to reconcile the iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness. 3He is made unto us wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption.
HE delivereth us from all evils both of crime, and paine, most fully and perfectly. From the evill of crime, for so the Angel testifieth. Hee shall save his people from their sinnes. The bloud of Jesus Christ cleanseth us from all sinne; that is, that it may not be imputed unto us,1 and that it may not raigne in us, but be abolished, and so we at length leave off to sin. Wherefore also he delivereth us from all paine, and punishment. For the cause being taken away which is sinne, the effect is taken away, which is punishment.
