Quest. 1. WHAT doth perfect Blessedness suppose and imply?
A. It supposes the total Freedom of Believers from all the moral evil of Sin. Eph. 5.27. That he might present you to himself a glorious Church, not having spot nor wrinkle, or any such thing, but that it should be holy, and without blemish. And from all the penal evils of suffering. Rev. 21.4. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes, and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain, for the former things are passed away.
Q. 2 What else is implied in perfect Blessedness?
