§. 13. Christ himself came into the World to recover sinful Man by Holiness †to God, and disdained not to be a means of Man's Sanctification, and to make this the notable operation of his Holy Spirit on us.
§. 14. Whatsoever Law Men are under, before Christ or since, Jew or Gentile, Works or Grace, no man can be saved and happy without Holiness; that is, unless they be devoted in Obedience ⟨p. 206⟩and Love to GOD and Goodness.
§. 15. No man can be damned that is holy, while such; nor can God hate and make miserable those that truly love him and his governing Will.
