cbrifis Fu!Fiefs' receivedby all saints. the Spirit ofthe Lord is upon me, (not inme) therefore the Spirit ofthe Lord isuponme, becaufe the Lord hath anoin- ted me to preachgood tydings unto the meek. So that you fee now, that anointing that falls upon the head of Chrift, it falls not upon Him for Himfelf, barely, but that it may run downupon all His members. That is a fecond Propofition. Thirdly, Asthere is an infinite treafury of grace, and holinefs inChrift : which He hath not received for Him- felf, but for others : So in the third place,) there is an in- finite propenfion, and willingnefs in Jefus Chrift to com- municate this grace unto the childrenofmen.
