A. True, the Saints cannot partake of Gods very Essence; (an Error of Montanus and the Familists.) The Riches of the Deity are too great to be received in specie. But the Saints shall have all in God that may be for their Comfort, they shall partake so much of Gods Likenessl, his Lovem, his Influence and the Irradiations of his Gloryn, as doth astonish and fill the Vessels of Mercy that they run over with Joy.
Quest. 3. How God comes to be his Peoples Reward?
Answ. Through Jesus Christ; his Blood being Sanguis Dei, the blood of God, Act. 20.28. hath merited this glorious Reward for them. Though in respect of Free Grace, this Reward is a Donative, yet in respect of Christs Blood it is a Purchase.
