(2.) In the dispensations of th• Blessings of the Covenant. Now, (Gal. 6.16.) To as many as walk according to this Rule, Peace be on them, and Mercy, and on the Israel of God. There are many Infirmities and Frailties, but ⟨p. 423⟩God passeth them by when there is Sincerity. Our Faith is weak, and mingled with Doubtings; our Love to God clogged with much inordinate Self-love, our Obedience often interrupted; Too much deadness and coldness in holy Things, yet these do not cast us out of the favour of God, nor make void our Interest in the Covenant, where the Heart for the main is set to serve him, and please him. Mal. 3.17. I will spare them, as a Man spareth his own Son that •erveth him.
