And they are such as do in-noble the Soul. No man hath to do with God in any way, but he is in-nobled by it. — Moses face shone, when he had been conversing with God. God doth shed ⟨p. 98⟩Glory upon all those, who have to do with him. None have to do with a glorious God, but are made glorious. None with an Holy God, but are made holy. If you have to do with him in Prayer, or any of his Ordinances, he sends you still better away.

4. Faith doth entitle us unto a Soul-in-nobling Inheritance: unto Heaven, unto Glory. It makes us not only Sons of God, but Heirs. Every Son is an Heir, nay, and a Joint-Heir with Christ, unto that eternal inheritance of Glory. Rom. 8.17. Hence the Apostle, 1 Joh. 3.2. — Now we are the Sons of God: but it doth not yet appear what we shall be, but we know when he shall appear, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. — Then when Christ who is our life shall appear, we shall also appear with him in Glory, Col. 3.4.
