Quest. 3 But how may it appear, that others are not in this state of life? that a wicked man is not in the state of life? that a wicked man is a dead man, spiritually dead? that the godly, and the godly only, are made partakers of this spiritual life, and that others are not?
Answ. Our Lord and Saviour Christ does speak expressly, Ye will ⟨p. 9⟩not come to me, that ye may have life. 1But look into the 3. Chapter of John, and the 36. verse, and ye shall find these words. He that believeth on the Son, hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son, shall not see life. Shall not see life; (mark those words) he shall not come within the view, or sight of life, or of the good things of life. He does not barely say, He shall not live: No, but he shall not see life, he shall not see the good things of life. So that plainly then, He that believeth not, is a dead man, spiritually a dead man, and lives not this spiritual life.
