it

that Inuit

and
therefore
when I
fet
my
felf before the
Lord
,
I
confider
that
I have
t
o
deal
with
him
in
a
Covenant of grace
:
Suppotie
I find
and
feel
fuch and
fuck
corruptions
and
weakneffes
in
me
;
Is:
it
not poflible
that my
eftate
is
happy
by
the
Covenant

?
Collet

Why
do I
determine
of
my
everlafting
condition
?
Have
I to
deal
with God
in
the Covenant
of grace,
and cannot thefe
imperfe&ions
Rand
with
it?
Why
do
I make
fuch
conclufions
that my
ftate
is
naught ,
becaufe
of
the
ftirrings
of
fuch
and fuch
corruptions?
The doubts
and fears
of
moft
Chriftians
arife
from hence,
becaufe
they
have
not
a
clear
underftanding
of
the difference between the Covenant
of
grace and the
Co-
venant
of
works
;
there
is
noshing
in
the
world
would
fo
fatisfie
the
Conkiences of
men and
women,
fo
ac
a clear
un-
dertanding
of
the Covenant
of
grace
and
the
Covenant of
works
:
Many people
cry
out
of
the
Preachers,
that they
dif-
quiet
and
trouble the hearts
of
people by
their Preaching
the truth
is, no
Preachers
occafion
fo much the
trouble and
perplexity
of Confciences
,
as
thofe
that preach
Motility
and meerly
the
way
of
duty ,
and never
come
to
make
them
fee
clearly the
difference
between
the
Covenant
of
grace
and
the Covenant
of
works
;
and
I
appeal
unto you
,
why
are they who
moft quiet
and fettle
your Conici°nces,
and
fatisfie
your fpirits
;
Are they not
thofe
Preachers that
open the
difference between the
Covenant
of
grace
and
the
Covenant
of
works
?
Certainly thole Preachers
that
fhetL
you
what
the Covenant
of
grace
is,
are
the only
men
that
quiet
and fatisfie
Confcience
;
and
'cis
a
truth,
that nothing
can do
it
but that
:
You
that are
Chril'ians
,
how
fhould
you
then
labour to get a
further
