A fourth Character or appearance of a new Creature, 1is this, he is one that sinneth not, one that doth not commit sin, so saith the Text, 1 Joh. 3.6. Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not; and ver. 9. Whosoever is born of God▪ doth not commit sin; This assertion is a touch-stone of the holy Ghosts making, therefore it must needs be both necessary and safe for a Christian to try himself by, and this I thi•k is such, as (if rightly understood) may afford much comfort, to a poor Child of God, when many other appearances of his new birth are hidden from him, though in the letter (I confess) it seems one of the unlikeliest Texts in Scripture so to do.
