IN these words five things.
1. A supposed Estate, in which we are all by nature, and that is an Estate of spiritual death. 2. A peaceable Recovery, or mention of another state, and estate of life. 3. A real Transition from this state of death to life, We are passed, &c. 4. An inseparable property of all the Regenerate Souls in the World; they do not hate, but love the brethren. 5. A comfortable Conclusion, that a Christian may make, from that property; he may know, he may be assured by this, that he is passed from death to life, because he loves the brethren: The Observation this, A Christian may know his real Conversion and Transition to Eternal life, by this Character among the rest, because he loves the brethren. This Proposition wa• slit into these two particulars. 1. That every Believer may have an assurance of his Transition from death to life. 2. The love of the brethren is one of the great eminent Symptoms of mans Regeneration.
1. A Christian may know his real Conversion, and Translation to eternal life. Such a great and real change is there wrought in every Believer at his Conversion; and this wrought by such a great Efficient and Infinite cause, the Spirit of God; and this cause, working by such real and powerful means, and instruments, the great Word of God; and this done, notwithstanding the great opposition that is made by a poor sinner against the Word: and when wrought, it hath such a real and grand effect upon a Believer, that 'tis impossible but a Believer must needs know this his Transition from death to life.
