IT is one of the greatest and noblest Questions in our Controverted Divinity, What are the immediate Effects of Christs Death? He that can rightly Answer this, is a Divine indeed; and by help of this, may expedite most other Controversies about Redemption, and Justification. In a word; The Effects of Redemption undertaken, could not be upon a Subject not yet existent, and so no Subject, though it might be for them. None but Adam and Eve were then Existent: Yet as soon as we do Exist, we receive benefit from it. The suspending of the rigorous execution of the Sentence of the Law, is the most observable immediate Effect of the Death of Christ; which suspension is some kind of Deliverance from it. Thus far Mr Baxter. Thess. 9. Explicat. pag. 67.
