1We have whatsoever we have, by virtue of the Covenant: for what could we look for from God but in Covenant, wherein he hath bound himself? now since the fall, this Covenant is called, the Covenant of grace: That now, if we believe ⟨p. 283⟩in Christ, we shall not perish, but have life and salvation: in all the parts of it, it is of Gods free grace and good pleasure. What is the foundation of the covenant?2 Christ, Christ is of free grace, God so loved the world, that he gave his only Sonne. There is nothing freer then gift, Christ is a gift, the greatest gift, he came freely from God, he gave him to death for us all, Rom. 8.
