The greatness of the mercy, in having of the Scripture is manifested by the great advantages that the Elect of God receive thereby: viz. athat they might be brought to close with Christ by faith unfeigned, and be partakers of eternal life through him, that bad men might be made good, & that good men might be made sure of an eternal blessed state, in the life to come, whereby the Lord hath abundantly provided both for our happiness and our comfort: for our happiness that we may have eternal life:b for our comfort, that we may know we have eternal life. I cannot stay to view the context. I need not stay to explain the Text. The case of conscience to be treated of from this Scripture is this.
