- 1Obs. 4.
Fifthly, Promises deferred, though they are to be looked 1upon as certain as ever they were, Yet the Saints of God have need of renewing of Promises, even those that have most faith. God renews the same Promise to him that was made; before God had promised to Abraham to make his seed great, but the truth is, that the Promise though it be as certain as before, yet it had been a long time and there was little come of it.
