By this time the Heart and Corruption are almost pulled asunder; therefore the last Cord is this, The Lord by the hand of his Almighty Spirit […] pluck it quite asunder, that the Will of the sinner may never solder again with his Corruption, nor suit any […] with them: Its the same power that raised Christ from the dead, Eph. 1. 19. Its the same power that raiseth the dead to life, Joh. 5. 25. The dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and those that do hear shall live. Yea, the Lord is said to Create lips to speak Peace, Isa. 57. 19. He puts forth a creating power, when he will lead and heal the sinner. The Lord Christ commands sin as sometimes Satan, Come out of him thou unclean spirit, and trouble him no more: That which all the Disciples did not, could not, Christ did there in the possession bodily, so here spiritually.
