3. Christ by his obedience, and death, did fully discharge the debt of all those that are justified; and did by the sacrifice of himself, in the blood of his cross, undergoing in their stead, the penalty due unto them: make a proper, real and full satisfaction to Gods justice in their behalf: yet in asmuch as he was given by the Father for them, and his Obedience and Satisfaction accepted in their stead, and botha freely, not for any thing in them; their Justification is only of Free Grace, that both the exact justice and rich Grace of God, might beb glorified in the Justification of sinners.c
