Eighthly, He saith, pag. 36. That Christ by his Mediation hath obtained from the Father that he shall not Judge any man according to rigour, but as they are in or out of Christ; all deferring of Judgement from the wicked is in and for Christ, which otherwise the Justice of God would not allow. Then Christ did thus far make satisfaction to the Justice of God in the behalf of the wicked, and dye for them, that Judgement might be deferred from them: and thus far perform Acts of Mediation for the Savages, and Mahometans, and for them that never heard the Gospel, that by such Mediation he hath obtained of the Father that they ⟨p. 30⟩shall be Judged not according to rigour, but by the Gospel. Which intimateth that Christ hath taken away all their sins against the Law, so that all men shall now go upon a new score, and none shall be condemned or Judged by the Law, but by the Gospel only; for if Christ have not taken away their sins against the Law, the Justice of God will •udge them according to the rigour of the Law. Must not every jot of the Law be fulfilled? and is there not a necessity that every one underlie the cusre and rigour of the Law, o• el•e that the Mediator hath underlyed it for them.
