SERMON IV.
HEB. VI.18. —We might have a strong Consolation, &c.
Use 2. TO press you to look after this strong Consolation. O! be not contented until you have the Fruit of God's Oath, that you may be able to live up to the Provision and Preparation he hath made for your Comfort in the Covenant. It is a Condescension that God will give us his Oath, and this is the Fruit of it, that we might have strong Consolation, to see our Names in God's Book, and our Heaven in Christ's Possession.
