Stimulator. Or, The case of a soul walking in darkness awfully & suitably considered. An essay, to awaken people out of the lethargy which disposes them to continue in a dark uncertainty about their future state, in the world, which is not seen, but is eternal. : [Four lines of Scripture texts]

Soul, Here are Symptoms, that thou hast the Life of GOD begun in thee But if thou dost indeed feel thy self Living to GOD, thou mayst argue from it, Now I see that the Sentence of Death passed on me for my Sin, is taken off, & my Sin is all forgiven. Go on, & argue at this rate; The Life of GOD thus begun in me, will never Die: No Death can Ever Extinguish it!

I will add one thing more. Christian, Dost thou feel the Blood of thy JESUS running warm in the Veins of thy Soul? That is to say: Does thy Soul close with the Intentions on which the Blood of thy SAVIOUR has been shed for His people, to Purify for Himself a Peculiar People? Does thy Soul wish & long & groan for it, that the Spirit of thy SAVIOUR, would make thee Like unto Him, and bring thee to Hate Wickedness & Love Righteousness ⟨p. 44⟩and always do the Things that please the FATHER? Dost thou Die to Creatures, and as this Death goes on, is a CHRIST more endeared unto thee; nothing but a CHRIST left Alive unto thee? Now tis no longer to be questioned, Thou art most certainly one of those whom thy SAVIOUR has Died for. The Blood of thy SAVIOUR has been most certainly Sprinkled upon thee. The Holy of Holies is open for thee.
