The third office of Faith, is having put us into Christ, and Justified us by him, to give us together with Him all other things, which is the conviction that the Apostle makes, Rom. 8. 32. If He have given us Christ, how shall He not with Him freely also give us all things? These All Things, are of two sorts. First, All graces: Secondly, All secular good things. Saint Peter puts them together, and shows how they run from Christ to us, through Faith as the pipe; His divine Power hath given unto us all things that pertain to Life and Godliness, and that through the knowledge (that is, the Faith) of him that hath called us to glory and virtue. 2. Pet. 1. 3.
