Dialogu The truth is, I find much uncertainty amongst Divines what to affirm in this point, for first, some affirm that Christ suffered the wrath of God in his soul only. Secondly, Others affirm that he suffered the wrath of God as well in his body as in his soul, to redeem our bodies from Gods wrath as well as our souls.

Dialogu. Ursinus doth plainly deny that Christ suffered the pains of the damned in his body, in Catech. pa. 487. ⟨p. 107⟩Printed 1611. These pains (saith he) he suffered not in his body, for the sufferings of his body were only external, therefore (saith he) he suffered those pains in his soul; And yet in the same Catechism, pag. 487. he affirmeth, That Christ suffered the wrath of God both in his body and in his soul, to deliver our souls and bodies from eternal damnation.
