THE BUCKLER Of a BELIEVER.
ROM. 8. Verse 34. Who shall Condemn? It is Christ that is dead, yea rather which is risen again, who is also at the right hand of God, and maketh request also for us.
IN this most sweet and comfortable Scripture, I mean the eighth Chapter, our blessed Apostle Saint Paul shows at large, the happy and safe estate of every true believer that hath his part in Christ; where he proves at large that there is nothing can hinder and dis-annul that estate, but that he must enjoy it according to his faith, showing withal that if any thing could hinder it, it must come either ⟨p. 144⟩from sin, or from the cross, the punishment of sin. Now he shows this and proves it strongly against all the enemies of Salvation, that neither sin nor the cross can do it, and therefore not any thing.
