The Spirit works in this 1order for the most part; First of all, the Spirit doth together with the Word (which is the instrument, and the Chariot wherein it is carried) convince us ⟨p. 118⟩of the ill that is in us, and the misery attending on us for the same. It convinceth us of sin, and the fearful estate we are in by that, and abaseth us thereupon, therefore it is called the Spirit of bondage, because it makes a man tremble and quake, till he see his peace made up in Christ.
