3 We hereby enter actually into a League with God, God takes the Soul into an everlasting Covenant of Peace, and the Soul also takes God to be his God in the same Everlasting Covenant, as you have heard, which Covenant all the Powers of Hell and Darkness can never ⟨p. 288⟩break or violate, the Peace and Union with Christ in this Covenant, is indissoluble; The Covenant of my Peace shall not be removed, saith the Lord: Tho we may sin, yet God will blot them all out, Sin, nor Satan, nor the World, nor Life,1 nor Death, neither any thing else can separate us from the Love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord;2 their Sins and Iniquities I will remember no more: All the Attributes of God are for us, and no Accusation of Satan, can provoke God against us, so as to become our Enemy: True, Sin or Satan may spoil the sensible Peace and Comfort of our Souls, but they cannot spoil our Peace with God, or break our Union.
