4. Faith Stablisheth the heart against the Fear of Hell. Faith ⟨p. 130⟩knows who was in pretium, as well as in premium, and beholds Christ not only in Premium, to entitle us to Heaven; but in pretium, as the price of our Redemption, to free us from Hell. As by his Active Obedience he answered Gods commanding and remunerative Justice: So by his Passive Obedience he answered Gods condemning and vindictive Justice, freeing us from that wrath and misery, which otherwise we should unavoidably have fallen into.

5. Faith doth establish the heart against the Fear of Judgement.— There shall be no condemnation to such as are in Christ Jesus; such as are Believers. The Judge is our Advocate, our Saviour; He, to whom we are to answer, hath answered for us: He, to whom we are to give satisfaction, hath satisfied for us: He is our Redeemer, who hath laid down his life for us. Faith knows Christ will be All, in All to the soul, not only in life to preserve it, but in death to comfort, and in Judgement to absolve thee, and save thee.
