A Body of Practical Divinity

If God be Infinite, filling Heaven and Earth, see what a full Portion the Saints have, they have him for their Portion who is Infinite. His Fullness is an Infinite Fullness; and he is infinitely sweet as well as infinitely full: If a Conduit be filled with Wine, here is a sweet Fullness, but still it is Finite; but God's is a sweet Fullness, and it is an Infinite. He is infinitely full of Beauty, of Love, his Riches are called unsearchable, Eph. 3.8. because they are Infinite. Stretch your Thoughts as much as you can, there's that in God exceeds, it is an Infinite Fullness. He is said to do abundantly for us, above all that we can ask, Ephes. 3.20. What cannot an ambitious Spirit ask? he can ask Crowns and Kingdoms, Millions of Worlds; but God can give more then we can ask, because he is Infinite, nay, or think: We can think, what if all the Dust were turned to Silver, if every Flower were a Ruby, every Sand in the Sea a Diamond: yet God can give more then we can think, because he is Infinite! O how rich are they who have the Infinite God for their Portion! Well might David say, The Lord is the portion of my inheritance, the lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places, and I have a goodly heritage, Ps. 16.5. We may go with the Bee from Flower to Flower, but we shall never have full Satisfaction till we come to the Infinite God. Jacob said, I have enough, in Hebrew, Li col, I have all, Gen. 33.11. because he had the Infinite God for his Portion. God being an Infinite Fullness, there is no fear of Want for any of the Heirs of Heaven, though there be Millions of Saints and Angels which have a share in God's Riches, yet he hath enough for them all, because he is Infinite. Though a thousand Men behold the Sun, there is Light enough in the Sun for them all. Put never so many Buckets into the Sea, there's Water enough in the Sea to fill them. Though an innumerable Company of Saints and Angels are to be filled out of God's Fullness, yet God being Infinite, he hath abundantly enough to satisfy them. God hath Land enough to give to all his Heirs, there can be no want in that which is Infinite.

If God be Infinite, filling Heaven and Earth, see what a full Portion the Saints have, they have him for their Portion who is Infinite. His Fulness is an Infinite Fulness; and he is infinitely sweet as well as infinitely full: If a Conduit be fill'd with Wine, here is a sweet Fulness, but still it is Finite; but God's is a sweet Fulness, and it is an Infinite. He is infinitely full of Beauty, of Love, his Riches are call'd unsearchable,
