Secondly, The assured believer may with comfort approach to God in all his Ordinances. 1. He can go to the Throne of Grace with humble boldness, crying Abba Father. 2. When he reads or hears the Word of God, every part is welcome to his soul. When the Promises are opened, he can say these belong to me; when threatenings are denounced, he can rejoice, because he is delivered from the misery threatened; when commands are urged by assurance, they are much facilitated; this is my Fathers command, I will do it, my Fathers will, I will obey it. 3. He can approach with joy to the Lords Supper, and sit there with great delight. He sees the wounds, the sufferings, the sorrows of Christ, and saith, all this was for me.
