2dly. By his Intercession. He is able to save to the uttermost all that come to God by him, for he ever lives to make Intercession for them. God pardons Sin as a Sovereign upon the Throne: his Authority is preserved entire without any Condescension of his Person; therefore the Blood of Christ shed on the Cross, is pleaded in Heaven to reconcile God to us: he satisfied Justice, and solicits Mercy: his Blood speaks still, and its Voice is as powerful as ever. The Prevalency of his Intercession depends upon the Dignity of his Sacrifice; the Dearness of his Person to the Father, does also assure us of his favourable Audience. He declared on Earth, I know thou always hearest me.

3dly. The Gospel sets forth his Willingness to save us. Faith has an Aspect upon Christ as able and willing to save: for Power without a Will to save is unprofitable, ⟨p. 311⟩and the Will without Power is fruitless and ineffectual. For the begetting of Faith we are to consider the Proposal and Offer of Grace in the Gospel, and the Promise of it.
