R. ABBOT.

Christ offered himselfe to God for the sacrifice and sa∣tisfaction of our sinnes, * 1.1 that by vertue of this satisfaction he might intreat pardon for vs, and we thereby also in his name might intreat pardon for our selues. Therefore we doe not say that praier for forgiuenesse of sinnes is the de∣nial of satisfaction, but we say that this praier being groun∣ded vpon a satisfaction made already in Christ is a denial of satisfaction to be made by vs. Our sinnes being satisfied for in Christ, remaine vpon our faithfull praier freely for his sake to be forgiuen vs. The forgiuenesse of sinnes is no∣ted in scripture to be a 1.2 the not imputing of them. If satisfacti∣on be required for sinne, it cannot be said not to be impu∣ted; and if it be not imputed, because b 1.3 it is as if it neuer had been, as Bernard saith there can no satisfaction be requi∣red for it. What a franticke dreame it is whereby they haue made praier for forgiuenesse of sinnes to be a satisfa∣ction for sinne, and that S. Austins words make nothing for their purpose, it hath beene c 1.4 before sufficiently declared, and is needlesse here to be repeated.
