1. Unto the FATHER. The Accomplishment of that Promise is peculiarly referred to him. John chap. 6. v. 45. It is written in the Prophets, and they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore who hath heard & learned of the FATHER, cometh unto me. This Teaching whereby we are translated from death unto life, brought unto Christ, unto a participation of Life and Love in him, it is of, and from the Father: him we hear, of him we 1learn, by him are we brought unto Union and Communion with the Lord Jesus. This is his drawing us, his begetting us a new of his own Will, by his own spirit. And in which work he employs the Ministers of the Gospel; Acts, 26. 18.
