1. He is one with Christ in affection; Christ is formed there, he loves what Christ loves, and hates what Christ hates; Christ loves righteousness, and hates iniquity; all iniquity, Heb. 1.9. and so doth he that is joined, united and married to the Lord, and so become a new Creature, He loves righteousness and hates iniquity, as truly, though not so strongly, as Christ doth, as the Language of such an one declares, Psalm 119. verse 127, 128.

2. He is one with Christ in action; Christ is formed there▪ he walks by the same Rule, he obeys the same Law that Christ doth (to wit) the Will of the Father; the rule of Christ's action was the Will of his Father. I (saith he) came down from Heaven, not to do mine own Will, but the Will of him that sent me, Joh. 6.38. I seek not mine own Will, but the Will of the Father which hath sent me. Joh. 5.30. My meat is to do the Will of him that sent me, and finish his Work Joh. 4.34
