2. If God had such love to us as to send his Son to dye for us, when we had grievously offended him: he will now he is reconciled do what remains in order ⟨p. 84⟩to our salvation: when provocations lay in the way, yet he drove on this design of our salvation, therefore he will do it much more, now those provocations are removed: when he looked upon us as offenders he did much in order to our blessedness; therefore now he looks upon us as friends, he will not think much to effect what remains: if he was not willing that we should dye, when we were guilty sinners, he will not be willing that we should dye now our guilt is removed▪ when he was angry he spared no cost for our salvation▪ we may be sure then he will not now he is pacified▪ now there is no obstruction in the way of Gods love to hinder the course thereof: Justice is now satisfied […] Gods anger is done away by Christ: the sacrifice of Christ has pleased God, Eph. 5.2. Christ Jesus ha• wrought out full reconciliation for us, Col. 1.20. God anger is turned away through the mediation of Christ: God has satisfied himself to his own content for the wrongs that they have done him, so that there is no offence to lye as a Bar in the way of their Salvation.
