4. He is an Eternal God, without beginning or end of being, Psal. 80. 1. Great therefore is the folly of those men that prefer a little short pleasure before this eternal God, that like Esau sell away an everlasting inheritance for a little pottage, for a base lust and the pleasure of it.

5. He is an all-sufficient God, Genesis 17. 1. what lack you therefore, you that would fain have this GOD and the love of this God, but you are loath ⟨p. 19⟩to take the pains to find him, or to be at cost to purchase him with the loss of all? Hairs infinite, Eternal, present sweetness, goodness, grace, glory and mercy to be found in this GOD. Why post you from mountain to hill, why spend you your money, your thoughts, time, endeavours, on things that satisfy not? Here is thy resting place.
