In 1 Cor. 15. 55, 56, 57. Rom. 8. 37. Christ hath triumphed over sword, famine, death, and Devils, &c. and so have they through him also; over all these we are more then Conquerors, we are over and above Conquerors. Oh what a blessed thing is this! that weak Saints should share with Christ in his Conquests. The poor weak Soldier shares with his General, in all his noble and honourable Conquests: So does a poor weak Christian share with his Christ in all his noble and honourable Conquests.
