These Things are greatly confirmed by the Scripture Doctrine of Sacrifices. 'Tis abundantly plain, by both old and new Testament, that they were Types of Christ's Death, and were for Sin, and supposed Sin in those for whom they were offered. The Apostle supposes, that in Order to any having the Benefit of the eternal Inheritance ⟨p. 291⟩by Christ, there must of Necessity be the Death of the Testator; and gives that Reason for it, that without shedding of Blood there is no Remission. Heb. ix. 15, &c. And Christ Himself, in representing the Benefit of his Blood, in the Institution of the Lord's Supper, under the Notion of the Blood of a Testament, calls it the Blood of the New Testament, shed for the Remission of Sins, Matth. xxvi. 28.—But according to the Scheme of our Author, many have the eternal Inheritance by the Death of the Testator, who never had any Need of Remission.
