By Puritans,1 then I mean only such, as JESUS CHRIST his own mouth stileth so, John 13.10. and 15.3. The same word is used here, but in a more blessed sense, that Eusebius hath to describe equivocally, the cursed Sect of the Novatians. You are all pure, or clean, saith CHRIST, by the word which I have spoken unto you; I mean then only CHRIST [Greek or Hebrew], whom the powerful work of the Word hath regenerated, and possessed with purity of heart,2 holiness of affections, and unspottedness of life, to whom he promiseth blessedness, Matth. 5.8.
