Mot. 4. He is willing to ſave you Rev. xxii. 17. 'And the Spirit and the bride ſay, Come, And let him that heareth ſay, Come. And let him that is athirſt, come: And whoſoever will, let him take the water of life freely.' The only thing wanting is your willingneſs to be ſaved, Jer. xiii. 27. 'Wo unto thee, O Jeruſalem, wilt thou be made clean? when ſhall it once be?' There is no fear of being rejected if ye come, John vi. 27. 'Him that cometh to me, I will in no wiſe caſt out.' He has taken on him the office of Saviour of the world, and he cannot refuſe the buſineſs of it.

Mot 5. Laſtly, Ye muſt either receive him as your Saviour from ſin and wrath, according to his commiſſion or ye will be, and be held refuſers of him for your Saviour, after his Father has nominated and commiſſioned him for that effect. Conſider how ye will anſwer that before the judgment ſeat,

Being convinced of your ſin and curſed ſtate, and deſiring to be ſaved from both believe Christ is your Saviour by his Father's appointment; and ſo wholly trust on him as a crucified Saviour. for his whole ſalvation on the ground of God's faithfulneſs in his word.
