And then lastly, In the same day thy Heart opens by Faith to Christ, all the treasures of Christ are unlocked and opened to thee. In the same hour God turns the key of Regeneration to open thy Soul, the key of Free-grace is also turned to open unto thee the unsearchable riches of Christ: then the righteousness of Christ becomes thine to Justify thee, the wisdom of Christ to guide thee, the holiness of Christ to sanctify thee; in a word, he is that day, made of God unto thee, wisdom and righteousness, Sanctification and redemption, 1 Cor. 1. 30. All is yours, for you are Christs, and Christ is Gods, 1 Cor. 3. ult. And thus I have shown you some of those great things God doth for those Souls that will but do this one thing for him, Viz. open their Hearts to receive Christ upon the tenders and terms of the Gospel.
