1 Pet. 2. 24. Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the Tree: And how did he bare our sins, but by bearing the punishment due for them? He was wounded for our transgressions, &c. Isa. 53. 5. And wherefore did he bear the punishment of our sins, but that he might give satisfaction unto God's justice?
Rom. 3. 25. Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation, through faith in his blood, &c. so 1 Job. 1. 2. Christ was set forth to be a propitiation or propitiatory sacrifice, which doth plainly imply that God was angry with sinners, and that Christ by the propitiatory sacrifice of himself, did appease God's anger, by giving satisfaction here by unto his Justice. And therefore also Christ is called an offering and sacrifice. Eph. 5. 2. As Christ hath loved us, and given himself for us an offering unto God for a sweet smelling savour, and Heb. 9. 22. He appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself, &c. How could Christ put away sin by this sacrifice, if this sacrifice were not for satisfaction?
