Under the Gospel-dispensation, as under the Legal, a shedding of blood was appointed in order to remission; and this blood was no other than that of Christ himself; which, as the Priest of his Church, he offered to God, and thus made an atonement for us, and procured that absolution from the guilt of sin, without which we could not have been justified, or accepted and treated as righteous persons. And hence it is that we are said to be "justified through the redemption that is in Jesus Christ." But this redemption was not procured by us, or provided at our expence. It was the result of the pure love of God; who, compassionating our misery, himself provided the means of our deliverance.
