Now, if this man should say, What do you tell me of sanctification, or I know not whether I am sanctified or no, or I look not to sanctification, I mind not holiness, I regard not the fruits of the Spirit; will not the holy Spirit, ⟨p. 381⟩will not an enlightened conscience, will not a faithful Minister, will not an experienced Christian reply, Then certainly thou art not elected, thou art not justified, for it is a truth as clear as the Sun, a truth that will admit of no dispute, viz. ¹That none are eternally elected and freely justified, but they are sanctified; and that they that are not sanctified, are not justified. Mark, there is a close connection of sanctification with justification in the promises of the Covenant; sanctification and justification go hand in hand, they come forth like twins out of the womb of free-grace; as you may see in these remarkable Scriptures, Jer. 33.8.² I will cleanse them from all their iniquity whereby they have sinned against me, and I will pardon all their iniquities whereby they have sinned, and whereby they have transgressed against me; Here you see them both expressed together in the same deed, I will cleanse them from all their iniquity; there is our sanctification promised. And I will pardon all their iniquities; there is justification promised, So Mich. 7.19. He will subdue our iniquities, and thou wilt c•st all their sins into the depths of the Sea. Here you find justification and sanctification again in the promise. He will subdue our iniquities; This is sanctifying. And he will cast all their sins into the depths of the Sea; This is justifying. Heb. 8.10. I will put my Laws into their minds, and write them in their hearts (there is the promise of sanctification) V•r. 12. And I will be merciful to their unrighteousness and their sins, and their iniquities will I remember no more; (There is the promise of justification.
