Grace and Peace to the wife and^onfcioliable
Reader.
Have laboured in this Dialogue Co explictce the
mcricorious price ofour Redemption, J iHlificac
ion and Adoption, and to dear it from fome
common Errors, hoping that 0Lh.;rs who are
better learned, will take occt(ioa by this Dislogue
to do tt r ore thoroughly.
I Sod variety •f opinions touching the point
of Chrifts fatisfadion for our K^dt mption , and JdliHcatioo
iiaaieiy,Mhat it wasthat he diu or fuffefd to (atisfle Godswfith
for our Redemption and JudiHcaticn.

Some hold that Ch rill did fati&He
Gods Juflice for our Reidemption
from the curfc of the Law, by bearing the faid curfe for '
•s: and they fticknot to affirm it in thefe terms: The curfe ot the
taw: The wrach ofGod: The torments of Hell: The pains of the
Damned: The fccond Death, &c.
2. Ochers will not indure fuch harOi terms , as fome of tbcfe
are, and yet they atHrm that Chiill did fuflPer the wrath of God for
OurRedcmption, namely, fo much of it as was equivalent to the
puniQiment of the (ins of the Elcd : See Mr. Jmcp^ upon Chrifts
fufferings^^.jj.
3. Others do affirm that Chrift did not fuffcr that kind of wrath
which the damned do fuffcr, but chat kind of wrath only which the
Eled do futifer in this life; but yet in a far greater meafurc , and
thus \Ar. ^infvforth did at lad explain his apprcheniions in a letter
to my fclf (having bad two or three turns in writing,not long be-
.{ibre his death.)
Such /arring there is among Divines, about the kind of fuflfc rings
which they fay Chrift bare for our Redemption.
4. Others difagree about the part of Chrifts human nature, that
did bear the wrath ofGod for our Redemption :
for fome affirme
that Chrift fuAered the wrath of God lo his foul only, and not in
his body:
t -..
t. Others a^im that he fuflcrcd the wrath of God in his
A 2
body.
