Sixthly, If Jesus Christ should allow, that they should Once think, that are coming to him, that he will cast them out: Then he must allow them to think, that he will be unfaithful to his Office of Priest-hood: For, as by the first part of it, he paid Price for, and Ransomed Souls; so by the Second Part thereof, he continually maketh Intercession to God for them that come, Heb. 7. 25. But he cannot allow us to question his Faithful Execution of his Priest-hood: Therefore, he cannot allow us Once to think, that the Coming-Sinner shall be cast out.
