3. How Sinners are saved by Jesus Christ. And of these in order.
First, What kind of Saviour is Jesus Christ? I answer, 1. The LORD Jesus Christ is an Almighty Saviour. As there is none other, Act. 4.12. so there needs none other Saviour. None can pull a Soul out of Christ's hand, Joh. 10.27--30. Christ is [[Greek or Hebrew]] God-Man, Emmanuel, God with us, Matth. 1.23. Jehovah our Righteousness, Jer. 23.6. The Mighty God, Isa. 9.6. The Almighty, Rev. 1.8. The true God, and Eternal Life, 1 Joh. 5.20. There is no Saviour, but God, Isa. 43.3, 11. I even I am Jehovah, ⟨p. 5⟩and beside me there is no Saviour. And Jude v. 25. To the only wise God our Saviour, be Glory, and Majesty, Dominion and Power, both now and ever. Amen. It is absolutely necessary unto Salvation to know and believe, That the LORD Jesus Christ is very God, as well as very Man. So the Virgin Mary believed, when she said, My Spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour, Luk. 1.46, 47. And so did all the holy Apostles and Saints believe and confess, Rom. 9.5
