Where God Commands us to Repent and Believe: to make our selves new hearts; to wash and cleanse our selves; to circumcise our hearts; He hath promised in his new Covenant to do what ⟨p. 72⟩he hath commanded; to give us Faith; to work Repentance in us; to make us new hearts; to circumcise the heart; to wash and cleanse us from our filthiness.
Where God Commands us to Repent and Beleeve: to make our selves new hearts; to wash and cleanse our selves; to circumcise our hearts; Hee hath promised in his new Covenant to do what ⟨p. 72⟩hee hath commanded; to give us Faith; to work Repentance in us; to make us new hearts; to circumcise the heart; to wash and cleanse us from our filthiness.
And Faith urging the Precepts of God, makes use of the Promises of God: sues out the Promise, and fetches strength from the Promise, to perform the Precept. — Lord, thou hast commanded me to make me a new heart: and thou hast promised to take this stony heart from me, and to give me an heart of Flesh. Lord, perform thy Promise to thy Servant, in which thou madest me put my trust. Thou commandest me to be Holy, and thou hast promised to make me holy: Thou art the Lord, that Sanctifies. Lord, make me Holy. — Da quod jubes, & jube quod vis: sic enim implebitur voluntas tua, & obedientia nostra: give what thou commandest, and command what thou wilt: and so both our obedience and thy Will shall be fulfilled.
