Sermon 6: Quest. How a Child of God is to keep himself in the Love of God. SERMON VI.
Modern spelling is a reading aid: the words are the author’s, only the spelling is modernized. Original shows the page as printed, with the transcription marks.
The Love of God is either natural or voluntary, thus Divines distinguish, and that well.
11. The Natural Love of God is that wherewith God loves himself. That is, the reciprocal Love whereby the three Persons love each other.
This Essential Natural Love of God is therefore necessary. God cannot but love himself.
2. The Love of God is voluntary: thus he loves his Creatures with a general Love.
