Synopsis

"It would be difficult to mention any single work in which the glorious plan of man's redemption is more fully and clearly exhibited, than in Dr. Bates' Harmony Of The Divine Attributes. The writer recollects with pleasure and gratitude, that when he was first led to attend with interest to theological subjects, this work fell into his hands, and was read with profit and delight; and now, after the lapse of forty years, he has again perused it with unmingled approbation; and he can scarcely conceive of any better method of exhibiting the doctrines of the gospel, than that which is here pursued." - Archibald Alexander

XlV. The Justice of God in Redemption. U. The completeness of Christ ssatisfaction proved from the causes and effects of it. The causes are the quality of his person and degrees of his sufferings.

XV. Practical I nfere7ices. I. In the death of Christ there is the clearest discovery of the evil of sin. II. The strictness of divine justice is most visible in it. III. The consideration of the ends of Christ sdeath takes off the scandal of the cross, and changes the offence into admiration. IV. The satisfaction of justice by Christ ssufferings affords the strongest assurance that God is ready to pardon sinners. V. The absolute necessity of complying with the terms of the gospel for justification. There are but two ways of appearing before the supreme Judge; either in innocence, or by the righteousness of Christ. The causes why men reject Christ are, a legal temper that is natural to them, and the predominant love of sin. The unavoidable misery of all that will not submit to our Saviour. -- 235 CHAP. XYL The Holiness of God in Redemptimi.-O i all the divine perfections, holiness is peculiarly admirable. The honour of it is secured in our redemption. I. In the bitter sufferings of Christ, God declared himself unappeasable to sin, though appeasable to sinners. II. The privileges purchased by Christ, are conveyed
