For the third, the miseries of this life; we have victory in Christ; In him we are more they conquerors, as you have it in this Chapter: They can do us no harm, Nothing can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus. We have […] singular comforts in this Chapter against all the troubles than can be fall us; and this is one, that triumphs over all: All things shall work for the best, to them that love God. What should I speak of hurt, from any thing that ⟨p. 3⟩befalls us, when all shall work for the best, by the over-ruling of him that commands all, Vers. 28?

And for death it self, Neither life nor death shall be able to separate us from the love of God. And for damnation, which accompanies death, It is God that justifieth, who shall condemn? There is opposite comforts in Gods Book, nay, in this Epistle, and in this Chapter, against all that may any way trouble our peace. There is no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus, saith the Apostle; and then he goes on after, to show how by the help of the Spirit, all things work for the best, &c. In this very Verse likewise, you have this comfort set down, of our freedom by Christ from any thing that may hurt us. For the Law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus, hath made me free from the Law of sin and of death.
