4. It may be said to be Good, because of the powerful Effects it hath on Mens Souls, where it comes not in Word only. The ¹Word of God is quick and powerful, sharper than any two-edged Sword. It makes the Dead to live, infusing through the Spirit, Life, and regenerating Grace into the Hearts of Sinners; it searcheth and purges out all Corruption; by the means of it young and old come to have their Hearts and Ways cleansed: Now ye are clean through the Word which I have spoken unto you.²
