Dialogu The like contradiction may be showed in sundry other Authors; Polanus divides the sufferings of Christ into outward and inward, and he applieth his sufferings of hell-torments to his inward soul sufferings only; See his Substance of Religion, pag. 141.144.

Answ. As you mistook Ursin, so you mistake Polanus, the same answer is to be repeated in the same case. Polanus in opposition to Bellarmine, and some other late Popish Writers, who teach, that Christ suffered not the wrath of God in his soul, propounds this question, v. Whether the alone passion and death of the body of Christ was sufficient punishment for us, and the satisfaction of an infinite price? and resolveth it negatively, proving the satisfactory passion of Christ to be both outward and inward of both body and soul, as is plain to the Reader, though (the nature of the dispute so requiring) he applieth himself principally to prove the soul-sufferings of Christ. You have not yet produced an Orthodox Author that saith Christ suffered the wrath of God in his soul only.
