Ans. Here thou Jesuite art pleading again for a Christ farre off thee, according as thy father doth at Rome, That Christ that dyed at Jerusalem did not satisfie for thee who art an enemy to him, and doth not abide in his Doctrine, but acts con∣trary to his Commands, and art under the wo, which he cryed against them that were in the same stops where thou art, and from that wo thou shalt never fly; The death of the man Christ Jesus which suffered at Jerusalem we own and witnesse; the same Christ that suffered at Jerusalem we witnesse made manifest, and the one God and the one Mediator we witnesse and know; betwixt God and man, the Man Christ Jesus, according to the Scripture: And here thou lyar art made manifest to all thy Congregation to be a lyar, who said amongst them, that we denyed that Christ that died at Jerusalem, so let them all be witnesses of thy lyes, & let thy mouth be stopt thou lyer, who art for the lake; and whereas thou queries whether the justice of God be not satisfied for the sins of the Elect, here let* 1.1 shame strike thee in the face, that ever thou should take upon thee to speak to any people, and knowes not the Scripture; where dost thou read in all the Scripture, that God doth require satisfaction for the sins of the Elect, or laid any thing to their charge, let all people try thee here by the Scripture, and see whether thou be not a blind ignorant Sott, who doth not know what the justice of God requires, neither from sinner nor from Saint, Isa. 42. 1. Isa. 65. 9. 22. Luk. 18. 7. Rom. 8. 33.
