1 That the Will of God is not moved to any thing thereby, nor changed into any other Respect towards those for whom Christ died, then what it had before; This was formerly proved, and must again be touched on. But,
2 The Death of Christ purposed, and accounted effectual (as before) God can agreeable to his infinite Justice, Wisdom, Truth, and appointment, make out unto sinners ⟨p. 51⟩for whom Christ died, or was to die, all those good things, which he before purposed, and Willed by such means to them: those things being purchased, and procured, and all hinderances of bestowing them, being removed, by that Satisfaction, and Merit, which by free Compact, he Agreed, and Consented should be in that Death of Christ.
