Only Christ Suffer Under And Also Satisfy God’s Righteous Requirements

ONCE AGAIN FACEBOOK HAS RESTRICTED MY SHARING THIS POST FOR 5 DAYS. PLEASE SHARE TO YOUR SITE. THANKS.

Bishop William Beveridge (1638-1707) Distinguishes Between Suffering (Under God) And Satisfaction (Meeting God’s Righteous Requirements):

“MAN CAN SUFFER BUT CANNOT SATISFY; GOD CAN SATISFY BUT HE CANNOT SUFFER; CHRIST, BEING GOD AND MAN , CAN SUFFER AND SATISFY TOO; AND SO IS PERFECTLY FIT TO SUFFER FOR MAN, AND TO MAKE SATISFACTION UNTO GOD, TO RECONCILE GOD TO MAN AND MAN TO GOD.”
