seeing he that entreateth for us loved us so entirely that he dyed for us, and will undoubtedly be most earnest in soliciting our suite, and he who is entreated so heartily affecteth us that he spared not to give unto us his only begotten and dearly beloved son, that by his death he might purchase for us everlasting life, let us shake of all doubting and go boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need. as the Apostle exhorteth us Heb. 4.16. For our good high priest is able perfectly to save them who come unto God by him, 1seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. as it is Heb. 7.25.
