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.

That Remission, Grace, and Pardon which is in God for Sinners, is not opposed to Christs Merits and Satisfaction, but ours: He pardoneth all to us, but he spared not his only Son, he bated him not one farthing.

To this Mr B, thus expressing it, (But it is of Grace to us, though not to Christ) Answereth: Doth not that clearly intimate, That Christ was not in the Obligation? That the ⟨p. 24⟩Law doth threaten every man personally, or else it had been no favour to accept it of another.

It is marvellous to me,1 That a Learned man should voluntarily choose an Adversary to himself, and yet Consider the very leaves which he undertakes to Confute, with so much Contempt or Oscitancy, as to labour to prove against him, what he positively Asserts terminis terminantibus. That Christ was not in the Obligation, that he was put in as a Surety by his own Consent, God by his Sovereignty dispensing with the Law as to that, yet as a Creditor exacting of him the due Debt of the Law, is the main Intendment of the place Mr Baxter here Considereth.
