III. I feel and see the Scripture verified, which describeth all the temptations of Satan, and the secret War within us between the spirit and the flesh.
IV. And I feel and see the Scripture fulfilled, which promiseth a blessing on Gods Word, and his Ordinances.
V. And I feel and see the Scripture fulfilled, which describeth the renewing work of the Holy Ghost, and the spiritual difference of the sanctified from all others. This is not only in my self, but in others (O how many hundred holy persons have I known) the witness of Christs Truth and Power; and as Joshua's and Caleb's bunch of Grapes, to assure me of the land of Promise, and Gods Truth, which I see fulfilled in them. Can I doubt of holiness when I feel it, and see it in the effects?
