Q. 3. What then are the presupposed things which we pray not for?
A. 1. We pray not that God may be Good and Love it self, or a merciful God: for this is presupposed. 2. We pray not that he would send a Saviour into the World, to fulfil all Righteousness, and die for Sin, and that his Merit and Sacrifice may procure a Conditional Universal Pardon and Gift of Life, viz. to all that will repent and believe. For all this is done already.d
