II. All the Promises of the Covenant of Grace shall be made good to all those that sincerely love the Lord Jesus. These Promises are many, great, precious, and all su•e to the Lovers of Christ. God in the Covenant hath promised he will be your God; and all that is contained in that Promise is unspeakable; for it is more, than that he will be your Friend, your Father, or bountiful Benefactor; or however, more is contained in these explicatory words than I am able to explain, Heb. 8.10. God hath promised the pardon of sins, Heb. 8.12. That he will justify us, Ezek. 36.25. and take away the old Heart, and give a new one, the hard and stony Heart, and give a soft and fleshy (which shall not be a fleshly) Heart, ver. 26. to give his holy Spirit, to help, to quicken, to guide, to comfort you, ver. 27. To give persevering Grace. Jer. 32.40. And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good, but I will put my fear in their hearts, that they shall not depart from me. If God neither turn away from his sincere People, nor they from God, their Perseverance is sure, that neither shall be, is secured by the Promise of God. Now these Promises concern the Lovers of God and Christ, and to them ⟨p. 201⟩shall be performed. Neh. 1.5. O Lord God of Heaven, the great and terrible God, that keepeth Covenant and Mercy for them that love him, and observe his Commandments. The same words in Dan. 9.4. there are promises to them that love God and Christ, and there are promises for the performance of those promises to such. Deut. 7.9. Know therefore that the Lord thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him, and keep his commandments. He did, he doth, but how long will he do so? To a thousand Generations. But what will he do to them that do hate him? What? Read and Tremble, ye that are haters of God and Christ. Ver. 10. And repayeth them that hate him, to their face, to destroy them. He will not be slack, to him that hateth him, he will repay him to his face.
