The riches of grace displayed in the offer and tender of salvation to poor sinners. Wherein is set out, the gracious behaviour of Christ, standing at the door and knocking for entrance. The dutiful behaviour of sinners in hearing Christs voice and opening to him. And the comfortable event upon them both. / By Obadiah Sedgwick. B.D. and late minister of the Gospel in Covent-Garden.
London: printed by T.R. & E.M. for Adoniram Byfield, 1657

Now you may look on God and say, Thou art my portion. Now you may go to God and say, Thou art my Father: Now you may behold the love of God, and say, this is my treasure; and the Covenant of God, and say, this is my store-house; and the providence of God, and say, this is my Shield: Now you may look on Christ, and say, This is my Redeemer, he is mine, and I am his: He lives in me, and I live in him; He dwells with me, and I dwell with him; He sups with me, and I feed on him; His blood is my refuge, and my heart is his Mansion; He doth graciously traffic in my heart by his Spirit, and I can as freely traffic with heaven by his intercession.
