Summary

Description
English: The cover page of William Pynchon's banned book, The Meritorious Price of Our Redemption, the first banned book in the New World. His controversial views at the time were condensed into the paragraph below the book's title, as follows:

The Meritorious Price of Redemption, Justification, &c., Clearing from Some common Errors; And proving: 1. That Christ did not suffer for us those unutterable torments of God’s wrath, that commonly are called Hell-torments, to redeem our souls from them. 2. That Christ did not bear our sins by Gods imputation, and therefore he did not bear the curse of the Law for them. 3. That Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of Law (not by suffering the said curse for us, but) by a satisfactory price of atonement; viz. by paying or performing unto his Father that invaluable precious thing of his Mediatorial obedience, whereof his Mediatorial Sacrifice of atonement was the master-piece. 4. A sinners righteousness or justification is explained, and cleared from some common errors.
