Fourthly, §4Though there be a communication of the Fullness of Christ unto all Believers: yet 'tis according to their necessities, and wants. The lace (you know) 'tis laid upon the seam; upon the seam there lies the lace: lace ⟨p. 33⟩indeed, may be laid upon the whole cloth; but ordinarily, your silken-lace, your silver-lace, your golden-lace; 'tis laid upon the seam. Now the Lord Jesus Christ, He knows all the seams of your life, all the seams of your life: there He lays His Golden-Lace on. Mark therefore, what are the seams of thy life, and see if Christ hath not laid on something there. pa Take but these Four Considerations together, and there is a sufficient Answer to that Objection.
