- 1The promises do belong to all who are in Covenant with God.
The very nature and constitution of the Covenant do evince this, which is a very cluster of promises, I will be merciful to your transgressions, I will cleanse you from all your Idols, and from all your uncleannesses, I will put my Spirit within you, I will bless you, I will do you good, I will hear you, and deliver you; He will give grace and glory, and no good thing will he with-hold from them that walk uprightly; In hope of eternal life which God hath promised unto them that love him, &c.
