2 It bringeth great assurance of our effectual calling, and spiritual union with Christ, yea even of our eternal election, and salvation. Forh God having chosen us that we should be holy, they that indeed are holy, may be sure they are chosen of God, and borne of God. To this purpose saithi Saint John, If ye know that he is Righteous, ye know that every one which doth Righteousness, is borne of him. Being sure of these, how can we be mortally wounded?
