SECT. III.
Observations on Rom. v. 6,—10. and Eph. ii. 3. with the Context, and Rom. vii.
Another Passage of this Apostle in the same Epistle to the Romans, which shows that all that are made Partakers of the Benefits of Christ's Redemption, are in their first State wicked and desperately wicked, is that, ⟨p. 221⟩Chap. v. 6,—10. For when we were yet […] Strength, in due Time Christ died for the Ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous Man will one die; yet […] for a good Man, some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his Love towards us, in that while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us. Much more than, being now justified by his Blood, we shall be saved from Wrath through him. For if while we were Enemies, we were reconciled to God through the Death of his Sin? much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his Life.
