§. 76.
Mr. Bl. TO wind up all, though there be some difference in the way between me and my learned friend, yet there is little in the thing it self. Mr. Baxter says that the Proposition to which God sealeth, runs thus, If thou believe, I do pardon thee and will save thee. The soul must assume the Minor. But I believe; from whence the Conclusion will follow, I shall be pardoned and saved. And I infer, the Major being sealed, the Conclusion that rightly issues out of it, having its strength from it, is sealed likewise; sealed to him that can make good that Assumption, But I Believe, and upon these terms that he be a believer.
