Of the death of Christ, the price he paid, and the purchase he made. Or, the satisfaction, and merit of the death of Christ cleared, the universality of redemption thereby oppugned: and the doctrine concerning these things formerly delivered in a treatise against universal redemption vindicated from the exceptions, and objections of Mr Baxter. / By J. Owen, minister of the gospel.Of the death of Christ, the price he paid, and the purchase he made.

This is (to return) my First Answer, to the forementioned Objection, with the Reasons of it, whereunto Mr B. excepteth, as followeth.
1 Pardon implieth Christs Death as a Cause; but ⟨p. 23⟩I would he had showed the Scripture that makes Pardon so large a thing, as to comprise the whole Dispensation of Grace; or that maketh Christs death to be a part of it, or comprised in it. 2 If such a word were in the Scripture, will he not confess it to be Figurative, and not proper, and so not fit for this Dispute. 3 Else when he saith, That Christs Death procured our Pardon, he meaneth that it procured it self.

So he.
