    Question 14

    THE SECOND PART, OF MANS DELIVERIE

    1. Is there any creature able in heauen or in earth, which is only a creature, to satisfie for vs?

      None. For first, God will not punish that sin in any other creature, which man hath committed. And further, neither can that which is nothing but a creature, sustaine the wrath of god against sinne, and deliuer others from it. ; ;
