1. That there is no forgiveness without satisfaction made to the Justice of God; the Law stands out against every Sinner, and condemns him to die: and that Law was the Rule of Relative Justice between God and man, and cannot be baulked without violence offered to that Righteousness. It therefore is asserted, Heb. 9.22. Without blood there is no Remission, for, tho' God forgives the Sinner freely, in the application of it to the Subject, yet forgiveness must be first laid in for him, and that by a sufficient ⟨p. 35⟩price paid for him, or else there were no room for such an Application, as the case stands between God and man in the First Covenant; so that if there could have […] no satisfaction made, there could not have any forgiveness been conferred, but the Law must have unavoidably past into execution upon the guilty Creature.
