1So he doth things to make his power known, to show his power, and to declare his name through the earth, Rom. 9. 17, 22. So it was said, that by the works of creation, [Greek or Hebrew], that which may be known of God is made manifest, Rom. 1. 19, 20. And what is that? even the natural essential Properties of his Being; his Eternal Power and Godhead. To this Head are referred all those Promises of God that he would glorify himself, and the prayers of his Saints that he would do so. And the Attestations given unto it in the Scripture that he hath done so. He hath made known his Wisdom, Holiness, Power, Goodness, Self-sufficiency, and the like perfections of his nature.
