2. Have it you under his Hand? Is it a Peace upon Scripture terms? of Faith? Rom. 5. 1. Therefore being justified by Faith, we have Peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Repentance, Luke 24. 47. That Repentance and Remission of Sins should be preached in his Name among all Nations, &c. And the Exercise of Holiness: Then have you God's word to show for it. But if it be not a Peace consistent with Scripture-Rules; nay you are afraid of the Word, Joh. 3. 20. You are loth to be tried, 'tis a naughty Heart.

3. Have it you under his Seal? 2 Cor. 1. 22. Who hath also sealed us, and given us the earnest of the Spirit in our Hearts: Have you the Impress of God upon you, God's Seal, his Image? Doth the Spirit of Promise assure your Hearts before God, that you can live in the Strength of this Comfort, and go about Duties cheerfully? Then 'tis God's Pardon, otherwise 'tis but your own Absolution which is worth nothing.
