God wills that His justice be satisfied, therefore must we make full satisfaction to the same, either by ourselves or by another.

Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing. Matth. 5, 26.

Ezek. 18, 4. 2 Thess. 1, 6. Luk. 16, 2. Rom. 8, 34.

By no means: on the contrary, we daily increase our guilt.
