Reply. 1 To what End I mention that place of the Apostle was before declared: 2 By the Death of Christ we are immediately delivered from Death with that Immediation which is proper to the Efficiency of Causes, which produce their Effects by the way of Moral procurement: that is certainly, without the Intervention of any other Cause of the like kind: And, 3 Absolutely, no Condition being interposed between the Cause and the Effect, Christs Death, and our total Deliverance, but such as is part of our Deliverance, and solely procured by that Death: Though that Death of Christ be not considered as alone, that is separated from his Obedience, Resurrection, and Intercession, when the Work of Redemption is assigned to it in the Scripture.
