5. I will add but one work more of the Spirit on your behalf, which is this, 1He works all your works in you, and for you: Consider your works, either of faith or obedience; your works of faith in reference to the promises of God; and your work of obedience in reference to the precepts of God; although you are the persons who do believe the one, and obey the other, yet it is the Spirit of Christ which is the cause, and the powerful principle of those in you. He it is who doth make your hearts to believe, and who doth cause you to walk in his Statutes, and do them, Ezek. 36. 27.
