Nay, such a Grace, as doth throw a man out of himself: empties a man of himself, and casts him upon another. It is such a Grace, as makes the Soul all in another; nothing in it self: Rich in another, poor in it self; found in another, lost in it self: Saved by another, damned by it self. — I live (saith Paul) yet not I, but Christ in me. I live by the Faith of the Son of God, or Faith in the Son of God, Gal. 2.20.

It is such a Grace as makes a man stand upon another's bottom: live by another's life: Rich by another's riches: clothed by another's Apparel: fed by another's meat. A poor beggarly grace in it self. And therefore God chose this.
