A man then is a Son as he is begotten and born of God to himself, and a servant as he is gifted for work in the house of his Father: And though it is truth, the servant may be a Son, yet he is not a Son, because he is a servant. Nor doth it follow, that because all Sons may be servants, that therefore all servants are Sons; no, all the servants of God are not Sons; and therefore when time shall come, he that is only a servant here, shall certainly be put out of the house, even out of that house himself did help to build.
