No condition of the Covenant with respect to its first sanction with Christ, 247. but hath an antecedent Condition with respect to the application of its benefits unto men, 248. Which is Faith, as organically considered, 249. The Opinions of Orthodox Divines in this Question cited, 250. That the Covenant is Conditional, proved from M. C's own Concessions, 256.

Thes. 5. That Rom. 11. 17. is a clear proof, that believing Parents, and their Seed, are ingrafted into the room of the Jews, who were broken off, 290, 291. Thes. 6. Suitably hereunto, when a Christian Church was constituted, the Children of such believing Parents were declared federally holy, 1 Cor. 7. 14.
