Adde (6.) fuch patfages, as mention the ActuaiAccomplishment & Ef- fect of Chrift's death , where it will yet more appear , that this was no meere may be , or Poflible thing , but that which was to have a certaine Being & Reality as to the perfons , for whom it was defigned ; Such as Heb. 1: 3. -- when he had by himfelf purged our firmer. Can their finnes be laid to be purged , who pine away in hell for ever , becaufe of their finnes ? could this be true , if no man bad been faved ? and yet , if it had been a mere poffible & may be Redemption , it might have corne to pafíe , that not one perfon should have beenactually faved.
