§. 60. Whether the Sacraments seal the conditional Promise absolutely? or the conclusion conditionally, when only one of the Premises is of Divine Revelation? And whether this conclusion be de fide, I am Justified and shall be saved.

§. 60.
R. B. I Need not transcribe these words, being of another, and not spoke to me. But I will pass my conjecture to his questions. 1. I conjecture that the Querist by Evading, meant Owning and Justifying the fact, and so evading the blame. 2. To the second I conjecture the Querist had been lately conversant ⟨p. 116⟩in Mr. Blake's book, and so it was in his memory: and whether he knew what those whom you mention do hold I cannot tell. 3. To the third; If by Sacramental sealing, you mean Conditional sealing, I conjecture his conceit might be this, that as the Promise may be conditionally tendered to Infidels, Murderers, or any other so might the Seal, if it were but Conditional as the Promise. As we may say to the worst; If thou wil believe, thou shalt be saved; so might we conditionally seal salvation to him. But I take this to be a great mistake.
