Likewise in the third place, the Spirit assures us of the same privileges that issue from grace: Christ is a Son, the Spirit tells us we are ⟨p. 43⟩sons, Christ is an heir, the Spirit tells us we are heirs with Christ; Christ is the King of Heaven, and Earth, the Spirit tells us that we are Kings, that his riches are ours, thus we have grace for grace, both favour and grace in us, and privileges issuing from grace, we have all as they are in Christ. Even as in the first Adam we receive of his emptiness, curse for curse, ill for ill, for his blindness and rebellion we are answerable, we are borne as he was after his fall, so in the second Adam by his Spirit, we receive grace for grace.
