Doctrine. 2 There is a possibility revealed of God for a man to know whether he be called of God, or not; it is attainable for a man to know whether he be in the state of grace, or remain still in his natural condition. This doctrine is enforced from the precept here given, Luke 10.20.1 Rejoice that your names are written in heaven: now there is no ground of rejoicing, but for that whereof we may attain a certain knowledge, 2 Pet. 1.10.2 Give diligence to make your calling and election sure, 1 John 3.10. In this are the children of God known.
