From hence we infer this Doctrine.
The blessedness of the Saints in Heaven is everlasting. ⟨p. 85⟩Their presence with God is ever. Their vision is ever. Their fruition is ever. Their conformity to God is ever. We shall ever be with the Lord.
Quest. But why? What good have the Saints done to merit such an ever of bliss.
Answ. Nay Christians, if we go that way to work, we shall be sure to fall short of this ever. An Heaven proportionable to the Saints merit is not to be found, unless it be amongst their Antipodes in the Regions of darkness (if there be an heaven there:) The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.1
