The Canons of Dordrecht
The Second Main Point of Doctrine: Christ’s Death and Human Redemption Through It
Article 4: Reasons for This Infinite Value
This death is of such great value and worth for the reason that the person who suffered it is–as was necessary to be our Savior–not only a true and perfectly holy man, but also the only begotten Son of God, of the same eternal and infinite essence with the Father and the Holy Spirit. Another reason is that this death was accompanied by the experience of God’s anger and curse, which we by our sins had fully deserved.
