A. It is to be fully without doubting, resolved of Gods mercie towards me in Christ Jesus.
Proofs. That some have attained to such a lively faith, Rom. 4.20, 21. Abraham did not doubt of the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in the faith, and gave glory to God being fully assured that he which had promised was able to do it, Rom. 8 38, & 39. Saint Paul saith, I am persuaded that neither death nor life, &c. shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Jesus Christ our Lord.
