thou_o a_o jewe_n and_o more_o blasphemouse_n than_o a_o devil_n think_v thou_o that_o christ_n redeem_v we_o who_o can_v not_o save_v himself_o if_o he_o suffer_v hell_n he_o be_v damn_v because_o

have_v suffer_v death_n of_o body_n 12._o sect._n 12._o yea_o that_o death_n say_v he_o will_v only_o have_v redeem_v our_o body_n but_o not_o our_o soul_n and_o so_o to_o make_v christ_n a_o

also_o show_v the_o power_n of_o christ_n who_n not_o only_o by_o death_n overcome_v death_n but_o by_o suffer_a hell_n pain_n overcome_v hell_n also_o and_o by_o take_v the_o pain_n which_o we_o deserve_v acquit_v we_o of_o the_o same_o thus_o he_o shroud_v his_o impiety_n and_o blasphemy_n under_o the_o show_v of_o piety_n and_o zeal_n of_o christ_n honour_n and_o when_o he_o blasphemethe_v most_o of_o all_o he_o will_v seem_v to_o honour_n christ_n with_o the_o title_n of_o a_o complete_a redeemer_n and_o to_o commend_v his_o charity_n and_o power_n but_o to_o the_o first_o i_o answer_v that_o christ_n by_o his_o death_n and_o passion_n pay_v a_o sufficient_a price_n and_o ransom_n both_o for_o soul_n and_o body_n 5._o eph_n 5._o and_o therefore_o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o in_o

earth_n 1._o ●_o pet._n 1._o to_o who_o saint_n peter_n subscribe_v avouch_v that_o we_o be_v redeem_v not_o with_o gold_n nor_o silver_n but_o with_o the_o preciouse_a blood_n of_o the_o immaculate_a lamb_n and_o never_o shall_v john_n caluin_n find_v either_o scripture_n or_o father_n that_o say_v that_o christ_n suffer_v the_o pain_n of_o hell_n for_o our_o redemption_n but_o rather_o he_o shall_v find_v that_o they_o attribute_v our_o redemption_n to_o the_o passion_n and_o pang_n of_o death_n of_o christ_n body_n and_o therefore_o if_o caluin_n will_v stand_v to_o it_o that_o christ_n passion_n be_v only_o able_a to_o ransom_n our_o body_n but_o not_o our_o soul_n he_o detract_v from_o the_o dignity_n of_o christ_n death_n and_o see_v that_o the_o scripture_n and_o father_n acknowledge_v no_o other_o price_n to_o have_v be_v offer_v for_o we_o then_o christ_n death_n and_o passion_n if_o that_o be_v deficient_a then_o according_a to_o caluin_n christ_n be_v no_o complete_a redeemer_n but_o he_o press_v we_o with_o a_o argument_n which_o he_o count_v insoluble_a supra_fw-la supra_fw-la for_o say_v he_o he_o that_o satisfi_v for_o another_o must_v pay_v the_o debt_n which_o he_o owe_v and_o sustain_v the_o pain_n which_o he_o deserve_v and_o therefore_o because_o we_o deserve_v the_o pain_n of_o hell_n and_o be_v to_o suffer_v they_o both_o in_o soul_n &_o body_n it_o be_v necessary_a that_o christ_n in_o soul_n shall_v suffer_v the_o pain_n of_o hell_n else_o have_v he_o beme_fw-mi but_o half_a a_o redeemer_n but_o by_o this_o argument_n christ_n shall_v have_v endure_v in_o hell_n perpetual_a torment_n and_o so_o shall_v never_o have_v redeem_v we_o because_o he_o shall_v himself_o have_v be_v a_o perpetual_a prisoner_n for_o if_o christ_n must_v needs_o suffer_v the_o self_n same_o pain_n which_o we_o deserve_v then_o must_v he_o according_a to_o caluins_n rule_n have_v endure_v a_o perpetual_a hell_n because_o that_o be_v the_o punishment_n prepare_v for_o we_o and_o see_v that_o eternal_a punishment_n never_o come_v to_o a_o end_n christ_n shall_v never_o have_v pay_v the_o ransom_n due_v for_o sin_n and_o so_o we_o shall_v never_o have_v be_v redeem_v wherefore_o i_o say_v that_o christ_n passion_n to_o the_o sufferance_n of_o which_o both_o christ_n body_n and_o soul_n concur_v for_o the_o body_n by_o itself_o alone_o can_v not_o suffer_v pain_n be_v a_o sufficient_a ransom_n to_o redeem_v both_o our_o soul_n and_o our_o body_n from_o hell_n and_o damnation_n and_o therefore_o to_o that_o only_a and_o not_o to_o the_o pain_n of_o hell_n the_o scripture_n &_o father_n do_v attribute_v our_o redemption_n chap._n see_v the_o three_o book_n &_o third_n chap._n and_o this_o as_o i_o have_v prove_v already_o be_v

a_o thousand_o world_n yea_o the_o deville_n &_o damn_a also_o nether_a must_v caluin_n be_v so_o rigorous_a as_o to_o think_v that_o no_o satisfaction_n can_v be_v sufficient_a unless_o it_o be_v of_o the_o same_o kind_n with_o the_o debt_n which_o be_v to_o be_v pay_v or_o the_o harm_n which_o be_v to_o be_v repair_v for_o if_o one_o of_o caluins_n brotherhood_n have_v cut_v of_o the_o arm_n of_o another_o brother_n will_v not_o a_o piece_n of_o money_n have_v make_v satisfaction_n for_o the_o maim_n or_o will_v caluin_n have_v exact_v arm_n for_o arm_n and_o if_o one_o have_v owght_v
