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.

What then doth the Lord do, when he thus bestoweth Faith on him? For Christs sake (his Death procuring the Gift, not moving the Will of the Giver) he creates ⟨p. 78⟩Faith in him, by the way and means suited to such a work. Eph. 1. 18, 19. Chap. 2. 1, &c.

If then this be done for Christs sake, then is Christ made ours, before we believe. Else, Why is Faith given him at this instant for Christs sake, and not to another, for whom also he died?
