Well, but is the Spirit of God able to quicken thee, and to teach thee, and to enable thee? he stands especially engaged, 'tis his immediate work to prevail upon the heart, Go to the Spirit, and beg of him, that he would lead thee to the Father, and to Christ, that thou mayst have fellowship with the Father and the Son.
Alas, I cannot go unto the Spirit, I have so long resisted him, so often grieved him, with what face can I go? I am unworthy of his guidance.
Well, but Jesus Christ stands engaged; and never speak of Merit, that day thou speakest of Christ. Go to Christ, and beg that he would send his Spirit into thy heart. Jesus Christ is thy Kinsman, he knows how to pity thee; and the Spirit of Grace is at his dispose. Oh then go to Christ.

Alas, I cannot go to Christ, I have no ability to go, nor so much as a will to move towards him. I cannot go to Christ.
