Answ. Goodness in God may be considered under a twofold Consideration.
1I. The Perfection and Excellency of the Being of God, I mean his Essential Goodness, this cannot be imparted to Creatures.
- 1What a good God is, opened.
II. His Communicative Goodness, or that which God hath wrought out, laid up, and which he lets forth to Believers;1 O how great is thy Goodness which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee? Which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the Children of Men—The Earth is full of the Goodness of the Lord: 2I will make all my Goodness pass before thee, 3&c. My Excellency, or my Glory. This is that which we call the declarative Goodness of God.
