By Christ’s purchasing redemption, two things are intended: his satisfaction and his merit; the one pays our debt, and so satisfies; the other procures our title, and so merits. The satisfaction of Christ is to free us from misery; the merit of Christ is to purchase happiness for us.
JONATHAN EDWARDS

Happiness Misery Ourselves Purchase Satisfaction

JONATHAN EDWARDS

Beautiful Creature Degree Delight God True
