I shall draw up the Sum of this Argument: If such are the certain 1Fruits and Effects of Christ's Death; (1.) If it hath appeased the Wrath of God for all that are in him: (2.) If it hath made their Peace, and for ever reconciled them unto God: (3.) If the Holy Spirit is purchased, and procured as the Effects of his Death for them, by which they are renewed, quickened and helped to mortify Sin; and is to them an Earnest, a Witness, and Seal of Everlasting Life, and shall abide with them for ever: (4.)

If all that believe in him are sanctified, as the Effects of his Death, and shall be perfected for ever: (6.) If Pardon of Sin is an Effect also of Christ's Death, and all Believers have and shall have their Sins forgiven for ever, or remembered no more: (7.) If they are adopted Sons and Daughters to God, as the Effect of ⟨p. 266⟩Christ's Death: (8.)
