the_o eternal_a damnation_n of_o all_o mankind_n therefore_o he_o subjoin_v 2._o as_o our_o sin_n be_v make_v infinite_a by_o their_o be_v commit_v against_o the_o infinite_a majesty_n of_o god_n so_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o the_o lord_n christ_n for_o we_o by_o his_o death_n and_o other_o punishment_n be_v also_o infinite_a on_o the_o account_n of_o god_n greatness_n to_o which_o that_o satisfaction_n be_v make_v p._n 662._o that_o be_v the_o punishment_n of_o the_o lord_n christ_n be_v infinite_a because_o he_o offer_v it_o to_o a_o infinite_a god_n he_o add_v in_o the_o same_o

equivalent_a to_o the_o infinite_a punishment_n due_a to_o we_o for_o though_o the_o true_a god_n can_v neither_o die_v nor_o suffer_v yet_o he_o who_o be_v true_a god_n do_v both_o suffer_v and_o die_v p._n 663._o and_o because_o he_o understand_v not_o the_o true_a state_n of_o the_o question_n and_o difference_n between_o the_o unitarian_n and_o the_o church_n concern_v the_o satisfaction_n by_o our_o saviour_n he_o have_v object_v to_o we_o a_o great_a number_n of_o text_n which_o be_v no_o way_n contrary_a to_o our_o doctrine_n he_o tell_v we_o from_o holy_a scripture_n that_o the_o

all_o that_o he_o make_v his_o soul_n a_o offer_n for_o sin_n that_o he_o be_v deliver_v for_o our_o offence_n that_o he_o bear_v our_o sin_n in_o his_o own_o body_n on_o the_o tree_n or_o cross_n to_o these_o he_o add_v rom._n 3.24_o be_v justify_v free_o by_o his_o grace_n through_o the_o redemption_n which_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n who_o god_n have_v set_v forth_o to_o be_v a_o

his_o book_n with_o twice_o imprecate_v on_o himself_o a_o curse_n if_o he_o shall_v ever_o write_v or_o teach_v other_o way_n than_o he_o have_v teach_v his_o reader_n in_o this_o present_a book_n i_o will_v take_v a_o short_a view_n of_o all_o that_o he_o have_v say_v he_o say_v first_o the_o infinite_a justice_n of_o god_n require_v that_o every_o sinner_n nay_o that_o every_o transgression_n be_v punish_v and_o that_o when_o god_n pardon_v and_o save_v sinner_n this_o be_v a_o act_n of_o his_o justice_n to_o which_o justice_n a_o full_a satisfaction_n have_v be_v pay_v by_o the_o lord_n christ_n god_n can_v be_v just_o other_o way_n than_o by_o pardon_v and_o save_v we_o and_o if_o god_n can_v pardon_v without_o a_o satisfaction_n to_o his_o justice_n why_o be_v not_o the_o devil_n forgive_v this_o be_v argue_v like_o a_o novice_n in_o these_o question_n the_o more_o learned_a of_o his_o own_o party_n know_v that_o the_o cause_n be_v lose_v if_o in_o the_o question_n of_o the_o satisfaction_n almighty_a god_n be_v not_o consider_v as_o a_o governor_n who_o indeed_o can_v forgive_v the_o offender_n but_o for_o prudential_n reason_n he_o will_v not_o forgive_v without_o a_o satisfaction_n to_o his_o honour_n and_o justice_n our_o author_n stand_v in_o it_o that_o god_n can_v forgive_v any_o offender_n or_o offence_n without_o satisfaction_n by_o the_o offender_n himself_o or_o another_o in_o his_o stead_n why_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o the_o king_n and_o proprietor_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n can_v forgive_v he_o answer_v it_o be_v contrary_a to_o his_o justice_n but_o be_v it_o contrary_a to_o justice_n to_o show_v mercy_n or_o to_o remit_v of_o my_o own_o right_n and_o due_n be_o i_o unjust_a if_o i_o do_v not_o exact_v the_o whole_a of_o what_o be_v due_a to_o i_o i_o may_v certain_o do_v what_o i_o will_v with_o my_o own_o else_o it_o be_v not_o true_o and_o whole_o my_o own_o he_o that_o can_v forgive_v neither_o can_v he_o give_v for_o forgiveness_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o give_v my_o right_n to_o debt_n or_o punishment_n to_o the_o person_n who_o be_v indebt_v or_o have_v offend_v i_o it_o be_v contrary_a he_o say_v to_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n to_o forgive_v either_o the_o transgression_n or_o the_o transgressor_n but_o if_o it_o be_v contrary_a to_o justice_n it_o be_v essential_o and_o moral_o evil_a i_o ask_v therefore_o how_o can_v god_n command_v we_o to_o forgive_v to_o one_o another_o our_o transgression_n and_o offence_n can_v god_n command_v we_o what_o be_v moral_o and_o essential_o evil_a or_o what_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o eternal_a law_n of_o justice_n by_o which_o he_o himself_o be_v oblige_v o_o marvellous_a scheme_n of_o justice_n it_o be_v contrary_a they_o say_v to_o justice_n to_o pardon_v without_o a_o full_a satisfaction_n but_o not_o contrary_a to_o justice_n to_o lay_v my_o gild_n and_o the_o punishment_n due_a to_o it_o on_o a_o person_n whole_o innocent_a and_o perfect_o righteous_a it_o be_v unjust_a to_o forgive_v the_o real_a offender_n or_o to_o abate_v of_o the_o punishment_n due_a to_o he_o but_o not_o unjust_a to_o substitute_v a_o well-deserving_a person_n to_o the_o punishment_n that_o belong_v to_o the_o other_o in_o a_o word_n to_o show_v mercy_n by_o pardon_v offence_n be_v unjustice_n but_o to_o misplace_v punishment_n be_v none_o at_o all_o but_o worthy_a of_o the_o holiness_n and_o of_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n but_o he_o faith_n if_o god_n can_v forgive_v without_o a_o equivalent_a or_o satisfaction_n to_o his_o justice_n by_o the_o offender_n or_o another_o for_o he_o why_o be_v not_o the_o devil_n forgive_v and_o i_o ask_v see_v a_o infinite_a satisfaction_n have_v be_v make_v in_o the_o opinion_n of_o our_o author_n and_o his_o party_n for_o sinner_n why_o be_v not_o the_o devil_n comprehend_v in_o it_o the_o same_o infinite_a satisfaction_n which_o our_o opposer_n teach_v be_v abundant_o enough_o for_o the_o fall_v angel_n as_o well_o as_o for_o man_n let_v they_o tell_v we_o how_o so_o much_o precious_a merit_n come_v to_o be_v lose_v this_o question_n can_v never_o be_v answer_v on_o the_o hypothesis_n of_o our_o opposer_n but_o on_o the_o unitarian_n hypothesis_n there_o be_v no_o difficulty_n at_o all_o in_o the_o case_n of_o the_o fall_v angel_n for_o we_o answer_v they_o be_v not_o forgive_v because_o they_o repent_v not_o nor_o amend_v almighty_a god_n as_o king_n and_o proprietor_n of_o all_o person_n and_o thing_n can_v forgive_v any_o offence_n or_o all_o offence_n even_o without_o repentance_n or_o amendment_n nor_o be_v it_o contrary_a to_o his_o justice_n so_o to_o do_v but_o it_o be_v inconsistent_a with_o his_o wisdom_n because_o to_o forgive_v without_o repentance_n or_o amendment_n be_v to_o encourage_v sin_n and_o disorder_n in_o the_o world_n it_o be_v also_o contrary_a to_o the_o holiness_n of_o god_n that_o the_o incorrigible_a and_o impenitent_a shall_v escape_v unpunished_a our_o opposer_n mistake_v too_o in_o think_v that_o it_o be_v the_o justice_n of_o god_n by_o which_o he_o be_v prompt_v to_o punish_v sinner_n it_o be_v his_o holiness_n and_o wisdom_n justice_n have_v no_o other_o share_n or_o interest_n in_o punishment_n but_o only_o to_o see_v that_o punishment_n be_v not_o misplace_v and_o that_o it_o do_v not_o exceed_v the_o offence_n as_o to_o his_o tale_n about_o the_o mad_a old_a king_n and_o his_o foolish_a son_n it_o be_v perfect_o ridiculous_a he_o have_v imagine_v a_o king_n that_o promise_v to_o pardon_v his_o rebel_n if_o any_o other_o will_v be_v so_o kind_a as_o to_o suffer_v for_o they_o it_o be_v a_o mad_a proposition_n in_o the_o high_a degree_n unreasonable_a and_o unjust_a because_o if_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o their_o offence_n shall_v be_v punish_v justice_n and_o reason_n require_v that_o the_o offender_n themselves_o and_o not_o a_o innocent_a person_n or_o person_n shall_v suffer_v well_o but_o as_o mad_a as_o the_o old_a king_n be_v his_o son_n be_v as_o foolish_a for_o our_o author_n assure_v we_o the_o son_n offer_v to_o save_v the_o rebel_n by_o die_v in_o their_o stead_n nor_o do_v the_o
