Now the Lord Jesus being thus entered into Heaven as our Forerunner, gives us manifold security of our entrance thither also, in the appointed season. This he assures us of, Joh. 14. 3, 19. For (1) He passed through all the Storms of Trials, Temptations, Persecutions, and Death it self, that we are exposed unto; and yet is landed safely in Eternal Glory. His Anchor was Trust and Hope in all his Storms, chap. 2. 13. Isa. 50. 7, 8, 9. And it was tried to the utmost, Psal. 22. 8, 9, 10. It preserved him in them all, and will be no less Faithful unto the whole Church. As he hath thus gone before us, he is able to succour us, and hath given us in himself a Pledge of success. (2) He is now where our Hope is fixed, namely, within the Veil, where he takes care of it and will preserve it unto the end.
