[1 Pet. 1.20, 21. Who [which Christ] verily was fore-ordained before the foundation of ⟨p. 79⟩the World, but was manifest in these last times for you, who by [through] him [Christ] do believe in God that raised him up from the Dead, and gave him Glory, that your Faith and Hope might be in God. These Persons in the Scriptures are set forth, sometimes only by believing, as Gal. 3.22. The Scripture hath concluded all under Sin, that the Promise by Faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe. Sometimes by believing in the Father, as in Joh. 5.24. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my Word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting Life, and shall not come into condemnation, but is passed from Death unto Life. Sometimes by believing in Christ, as in Joh. 6.47. Verily, verily I say unto you, He that believeth on me bath Everlasting Life.
