In-Text Should we not think that Father cruel, and void of natural Affection, who would not spare his own Son, no not his Beloved and only Son, no not when 'twas in his choice, and his power to spare him? yet when Abraham, being commanded, was ready to Sacrifice his Isaac, 'twas not his Cruelty, but his obedience, and that was the fruit of such a Faith as did work by love. I mean a love of his God, and not at all of his Isaac, whom (in that case ) he was to prosecute with a comparative Detestation. And in like manner when the Father of our Lord Iesus Christ could not so wisely shew his Mercy for all aeternity upon us, as for a time by shewing none upon the Lord Iesus Christ; it was the highest and best expression, not of his Cruelty, but of his Love. For he could never have spared us, his adopted Sons, if he had spared that Son, who was his only-Begotten. Nor could it be Cruelty even to Him, not to be spared by his Father, Should we not think that Father cruel, and void of natural Affection, who would not spare his own Son, no not his beloved and only Son, no not when 'twas in his choice, and his power to spare him? yet when Abraham, being commanded, was ready to Sacrifice his Isaac, 'twas not his Cruelty, but his Obedience, and that was the fruit of such a Faith as did work by love.
