And that Enquiry shall be thus Answered. It is a Looking to, and Trusting in, the Lord Jesus Christ, for Salvation.

A man mu•• see himself plunged into doleful circumstances of Sinfulness & Wretchedness, by his Fall from God, & see himself unable to help himself out of those doleful circumstances. A man must see God manifest in Flesh, and the Son of God become Incarnate, in our Lord Jesus Christ, and the Lord Jesus Christ become the only Mediator between God and man. A man must see the Lord Jesus Christ making Satisfaction for the Sins of His Chosen by His Obedience to the Death, and now Everliving to make Intercession for us, and able to Save unto the uttermost all that come to God by Him. A Sight of these things, & a Flight unto the Lord Jesus Christ upon what we see, This is Faith. Faith is an Addressing to, & a Depending on▪ ⟨p. 21⟩the Lord Jesus Christ, as the only One, that shall Recover us to Everlasting Happiness.

It saith, Psal 62.5, 6. My Soul, wait thou only upon God, for my Expectation is from Him, He only is my Salvation.
