Secondly, We must behold Jesus Christ by an eye of Faith, or believe in him, venture our Souls upon him; Thus it is to behold him.
1. To believe there is no Salvation, but by and through' Jesus Christ alone;1 Neither is there Salvation in any other; for there is no other Name given under Heaven, whereby we must be saved. No other Saviour for Soul or Body, for Pardon or Peace.

2. To believe, tho' there is no Salvation in any other, or in nothing else; yet that there is Salvation ⟨p. 82⟩in Christ, for all that come unto him, or savingly believe in him;1 Whosoever believeth in him, shall not perish but have everlasting Life. And indeed, to this end is Christ lifted up (as a Ladder, the top of which reaches to Heaven: As the Brazen Serpent was lifted up,) that the vilest Sinners who behold him by an eye of Faith might be saved.
