Dialogu. It may be you think (as many others do) that Christ began to pay the price of our redemption from the very first beginning of his incarnation, for many affirm that he was conceived by the holy Ghost without any original sin, that so he might thereby justify us from our original sin, ⟨p. 205⟩which opinion I have confuted: but the open History of the Evangelists do speak nothing at all of his Mediatorial actions, till he was publicly installed into the office of the Mediator by Johns Baptism.
