(Secondly,) He hath sent thee a Patent for heaven, this hath Christ given you that are believers: he hath made over to you in his Gospel a firm conveyance of heaven. So that I may say a believer hath as true a right to heaven as Christ can make him; yea as Christ hath himself. You are they that have endured in my temptations, and I appoint unto you a Kingdom as my Father hath appointed me, &c. Now believers, can you tell the worth of this token? can you cast up the worth of endless glory? can you tell what God and heaven is worth? then you may tell me what this token is worth; never was there such a token sent as this is?

(Thirdly,) He hath sent thee the golden chain of the Jewels and bracelets of thy graces. As when the servant of Abraham, went to take Rebeckah for wife to Isaac he gave her bracelets, &c. So hath Christ to you: he hath given you the chain of all the graces. These are the Jewels he hath adorned you with. Dost thou find any faith, love, &c. in thee? though ⟨p. 211⟩it be like a grain of Mustard-seed, and like a spark on the hearth? O bless the Lord Christ upon the bended knees of thy soul, that he hath given thee this. He hath done more for thee in this, than he hath done for all the world beside. O how thankful should you be, that have received such a token from him? Christian, when ever thou dost feel the operation of the spirit of Christ within thee, let this mind thee of the love of him that hath sent thee all this.
