5 The next Work of the Spirit is to convince the soul of Christs willingness to receive all poor Sinners, sensible of their sins, who will come unto him, and cast themselves and the burden of their sins upon him, by affecting them with a serious apprehension of the ⟨p. 65⟩manifold gracious invitations of Christ unto poor Sinners,1 as that in Isaiah, H•, every one that thirsteth come ye to the waters, he that hath no money, i. e. no goodness nor righteousness of his own, let him come; and that fore-mentioned place, Mat. 11. 28. Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Examine thy self therefore whether thou hast been thoroughly convinced of Christs willingness to receive all poor Sinners that will come unto him, and cast the burden of their sins upon him.
