4 A fiducial Remembrance; that you may so remember Christ, as to trust in him, and rely upon him, and cast the care of your Souls upon him.

5 A silencing Remembrance; that you may so remember Christ, as to silence all the Clamours of an accusing devil, and an accusing Conscience, and every one that would lay any thing unto your Charge: When you remember Christs death, it will furnish you with suitable supplies to all Charges laid unto you. The Devil will accuse you of sins before and since Conversion, and you cannot deny them; but you may remember Christs death, & say, it is true, I did so, but Christ hath born mine iniquities in his Body upon the Cross: what now, O mine Enemy! he will tell you of your si•s of omission, of commission, and you cannot •eny them; but you may reply, Christ hath undergone the punishment that was due to me for them; what now, Oh mine Enemy: the Law of God will accuse and curse you for the breaches thereof that you have made, and you cannot deny them; but here you may remember Christ, and say, that he hah perfectly obeyed the Law, and satisfied for your breaking of the Law, and may be comforted: Your own Conscience will accuse you, but here you may remember Christ's Death, and Conscience is answered, and ightly quieted: Thus the remembrance of Christ's death will answer all charges, Rom 8.33, 34 And will you neglect it?
