2. The Holy Spirit is expressly called the Seal with which every true Believer is sealed: Also after that ye believed ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of Promise. Which is the Earnest of our Inheritance, ⟨p. 119⟩1until the Redemption of the purchased Possession, unto the praise of his Glory. And again he saith, Grieve not the holy Spirit, by which you 2are sealed unto the Day of Redemption. Whosoever hath the Spirit of Christ in them, or hath received the saving Graces thereof, are Christ's Sheep, they have his Mark; these he will own, and say, (where e•er he find this Seal) this Man and this Woman is mine. And on the other hand; Now if any Man hath not the Spirit 3of Christ, he is none of his; he is none of his Sheep, he hath no special Interest in him. Remember the Spirit of Christ, true Grace, Faith, Love Humility, &c. is the Ear-mark of Christ's Sheep.
