Doctrine. The doctrine is, that there is a conveyance of all spiritual grace, from Christ, to all those that believe in him, I doubt not, but every man would be content, if he had a fair estate, to see his evidences, and every woman that matcheth with a man, would see what she might hold her self to; what if the man dye? and what if his means decay, what will he estate her in? now see your dowry, and the point is this, that there is a conveyance of all spiritual grace from Christ to all faithful believers in the world; well then, you see the point; we will add a little by way of confirmation, and you shall see the consent of the Scriptures, how they agree together herein, and ⟨p. 64⟩we will add somewhat also by way of explication, to unfold the nature thereof, that we may see what these invaluable treasures are: for the proof of the point, one or two places will be sufficient to cast the case; Ephes. 1.3. there Paul blesseth God in Jesus Christ, that hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ; so that there are blessings of three sorts, all blessings, all spiritual blessings, all spiritual blessings in heavenly places, and all given freely, but it is in Christ, he is the conduit that conveyeth this, and wherein the streams of life and grace flow amain, to make glad the city of God, to make glad the Saints of God, and the souls of those that believe in him; hence (it is remarkable Jude 2.) it is called, Common salvation by Christ; and so Christ is said to be a common Saviour consequently, not common to all the world, that every beast may browse upon him, and sin, and have a Saviour to save him, but he is common to all the faithful, common to all believers: that look as it is in a common or forrest, every dweller, and every inhabitant upon the common hath a share therein, no man can challenge any part of the common peculiar to himself, and say, This part is mine, and no man shall put any cattle here but I, but the common is every mans that dwells thereupon, and the poorest man may put on his cattle without control, and drive his cattle whither he list, on to the best part thereof, and improve it to his best benefit, without contradiction:
