The doctrine of the covenant of redemption. Wherein is laid the foundation of all…

3. Hence also Jesus Christ hath Promised to send his Spirit into the hearts of his people, to dwell in them, to teach ⟨p. 149⟩them, to keep them by his Power, and that through Faith to Salvation. When Jesus Christ left this earth as to his bodily presence, he then gave his Spirit to be the Guardian of his People, that they might not be left Orphans: and it is he who hath undertaken to do all that in them and for them which they need: to keep their weak Grace alive; to prevent its being quenched by the many waters of Temptation that would otherwise swallow it up, and utterly extinguish it in them: and this is a Fruit also of the Covenant of Redemption. And hence it comes to pass, that though Adam in his integrity, lost all his stock by the prevalency of a Temptation, that was too hard for him, yet a believer in the hand of the Spirit of God, notwithstanding all the frailties that attend upon him, shall never lose his little stock, but both keep and increase it.
