They call the Saint frequently and earnestly, not only to mourn for their Sins before the Lord; but to pray for the pardon or remission of them in the blood of Christ.
They give us a far different account of saving Faith, and do not place it in a persuasion more or less of Christ's love to us, or a manifestation in our Consciences of the actual remission of our Sins before we had a being; but in our receiving Christ as the Gospel offers him, for righteousness and life.
They frequently call the People of God to the examination and trial of their Interest in Christ by marks and signs; and accordingly furnish them with variety of such marks from the divers parts or branches of Sanctification in themselves.
They earnestly, and every-where, press Believers to strictness and constancy in the duties of Religion, as the way wherein God would have them to walk. They infer Duties from Privileges; and therefore the Antinomian Dialect is a wild note, which the generality of serious Christians do easily distinguish from the Scripture-stile and Language.
