What voice was it then that he believed God hearkened unto? He hearkened to the voice of the Mediator, to the voice of Christ: He hearkened to the voice of his own free grace: He hearkened to the sounding of his own bowels: He hearkened to the motions and intercessions of his Spirit in me: to the motions and intercessions of his Son for me. It is not my voice that hath got the answer; ⟨p. 272⟩he alone that hath granted it of his good pleasure in Christ.
What voice was it then that he believ'd God hearken'd unto? He hearken'd to the voice of the Mediatour, to the voice of Christ: He hearken'd to the voice of his own free grace: He hearken'd to the sounding of his own bowels: He hearken'd to the motions and intercessions of his Spirit in me: to the motions and intercessions of his Sonne for me. It is not my voice that hath got the answer; ⟨p. 272⟩he alone that hath granted it of his good pleasure in Christ.
