Perfect men are Gods portion, the lot of his inheritance, his ⟨p. 123⟩revenue comes in, he hath his in-comes of glory, by them. A man will not despise his own glory, he will not reject his own inheritance.
Further, They who are perfect come to him in his Son; and he hath pawned his truth for it (Joh. 6.37.) He that cometh to me, I will in no wise cast out: As if he had said, this thing is furthest from my heart of any thing in the world. God calls after many who go away from him, but he casts away none who come to him. None come to him till he draws them, therefore he will not drive them away who come.

Again, Perfect men have the Spirit of God, God cannot cast away, or stop his ears at the voice of his own Spirit. They have the earnest of his Spirit; if God should go about to put them off, or lay them aside, they will show God those tokens and pledges of his love, the earnest he hath given them to assure their hearts.
