The difference therefore betwixt the absolute, and the conditional promise, is this.
First, They differ in their terms. The absolute promises say, I will, and you shall: the other, I will, if you will; or do this, and thou shalt live; Jer. 31. 31, 32, 33. Ezek. 36. 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33. Heb. 8. 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12. Jer. 4. 1. Ezek. 18. 30, 31, 32. Mat. 19. 21.
Secondly, They differ in their way of Communicating of good things to men; the absolute ones Communicate things freely, only of Grace; the other, if there be that qualification in us, that the promise calls for, not else.
