First, What Life is in Jesus Christ?
1. There is Justifying Life in Christ. Man, by Sin, is Dead in Law; and Christ only can deliver him by his Righteousness, and Blood, from this Death, into a State of Life: For God sent his Son into the World, That we might Live through him, 1 Joh. 4. 9. That is, through the Righteousness which▪ he should accomplish, and the Death that he should dye.
2. There is Eternal Life in Christ: Life that's endless; Life for ever, and ever. He hath given us Eternal Life; and this Life is in his Son, 1 Joh. 5.
Now, Justification, and Eternal Salvation, being both in Christ, and no where else to be had for Men, Who would not come to Jesus Christ?
