DISCOURSE. SECT. III.
It makes Ministers unable to afford true comfort to the tempted; and this it doth, because it 1. Takes from them all solid grounds of comfort. 2. Leaves them only weak and insufficient grounds.
It makes Ministers unable to afford true comfort to the tempted; and this it doth, because it 1. Takes from them all solid grounds of comfort. 2. Leaves them only weake and insufficient grounds.
1. It bereaves them of the solid grounds of comfort; which are these. 1. The universality of Gods love. 2. Of Christs death. 3. And of the covenant of grace. That Minister which doth explain and apply these three things soundly, and wisely to him that is tempted in this kind, doth that which is abundantly enough for the relieving and releasing of him from his temptation, and he that doth not apply these, leaves him as he found him in the midst of his temptation still, whatsoever may be said to the contrary in the hear of disputation.
