2. That there is a Covenant which God makes betwixt himself and believers: 1So you have it often expressed in Scripture, Gen. 17. 2. I will make my Covenant betwixt me and thee, verse 7. I will establish my Covenant betwixt me and thee, and thy seed after thee in their generations after thee, to be good unto thee, and to thy seed after thee. Deut. 4. 23. Take heed unto your selves lest you forget the Covenant of the Lord your God, which he made with you. 2 Sam. 23. 5. He hath made with me an everlasting Covenant, ordered in all things and sure. Psal. 50. 5. Gather my Saints together unto me, those that have made a Covenant with me by Sacrifice. Jer. 31. 31. Behold, the days come (saith the Lord) I will make a new Covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah, which is repeated by the Apostle, Heb. 8. 8. all which places do manifestly prove that there is a Covenant betwixt God and Believers.
