his (c) 2 Tim. 1.10 Psa 111.9 outward Ministry then afterwards (d) 2 Cor. 1.22 Eph. 1.13 reveals seals and assures it to mens soules by his Spirit Fourthly In respect of the ends of the Covenant for first and chiefly God aims at his own and at his Son his glory and next at the happinesse and salvation of his people and in these senses it may be called an ordered or well-ordered Covenant Fourthly It is a (e) 2 Sam. 23.5 sure and firm Covenant yea (f) Esa 55.3 Act. 13.34 all and every of the mercies thereof are sure and therefore called the sure mercies of David or of the beloved as the originall signifies yea as the proverb is As sure as a Rocke for it s builded and founded upon that (g) Esa 26.4 marg rocke of ages Jesus Christ This Covenant of God is like yea far more certaine then the Lawes of the Medes and Persians which were unchangeable and unalterable Marke how (h) Ps 89.34 God speakes My Covenant saith he will I not breake nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips Obj. This Promise was made unto David who was a strong beleever and a man after Gods own bea rt but is it so sure to every ordinary beleever as it was to him A. Yes sure marke the words of the Apostle Rom. 4.16 Ro. 4.16 Therefore it is of faith that it might be by grace to the end that the promise might be sure to all the seed As well Gentiles as Jewes as well the weake as the strong seed of Abraham as well the sinfulest as the holiest of his seed Obj. Oh but David was a very zealous religious and upright man and not such a great sinner as I am A. 1. Beleeve this that thou art as neere and as deere to God as David was even as Joseph and Benjamin the youngest sons were as (a) Gen. 37.3 4 -44.29 greatly yea more beloved by Jacob then Reuben the eldest and thou Gospell beleever art one of beautifull Rachels children I mean the Church of the New Testament Christ takes the first and cheifest care of his lambs or those that are weak Joh. 21.15 This is to be understood of the visible Church and David was but a sonne of bleer-eyed Leah the Church of the Jewes and did not Christ (b) Mat. 11.11 say That he that was least in the Kingdome of heaven or in the Church of the new Testament was greater then John the Baptist 2. If thou art a greater sinner then David then thou art deerer to Christ then David for hee paide more for thee then for him As (c) Gen. 29 30. Jacob loved Rachel more than Leah because he obeyed suffered indured most for her And as the Prodigalls father (d) Lu. 15.13 23 24 30 32. rejoyced most in his lost and dead son though hee had spent his own and his fathers substance with Harlots even so thou who art the greatest sinner and didst cost Christ most art sure become dearest to him An excellent example there is for this in (a) Jer. 31.20 Jeremy Is Ephraim my deare son is he a pleasant child Or it may be read thus Ephraim my dear son he is a pleasant child for since I spake against him I do earnestly remember him still therefore my bowells sound for him and what followes I will surely have mercy upon him saith the Lord Marke here how deare and delightfull affections are joyned with tender and mercifull compassions set forth in sweet working soule-ravishing and heart-melting expressions And all to a people that had committed Idolatry against the Lord yea and but little before God spake these words unto them they had (b) Hos 5.13 departed and revolted from the Lord to put confidence in man yea they were guilty at this time and did lye under many (c) Hos 4 17-5.3.-6.8.-11.12-12.14.-13.12 great fins as Idolatry backsliding unbeleife luke-warmenesse and for God to speak at such a time to such a people in such a manner what to call an Idolater his son a Back-slider his dear sonne a diffident distrustfull unbeleever his pleasant childe oh let such a love be admired such mercy publickly proclaimed such expressions for ever recorded and remembred such a Covenant embraced and hugged and such carriage and kindnesse constantly thought on and minded and ought not such a Lord and Father to be dearly daily and sincerely loved and affected and to be chearfully duly and dutifully obeyed and honoured and his words and will stedfastly and firmely beleeved and observed for ever Obj. But here we finde Ephraims repentance v. 18. as well as his sinne were it so with me I should not doubt of Gods promise A. It is very true after the Lord had so bemoaned and pittied Ephraim and made such gracious promises to him he did repent but you do not find Ephraim repenting first See the chapter throghout but God though offended hee comes and bewailes Ephraims condition and so by his loving speeches and lovely behaviour winnes and workes Ephraim to acknowledge his sinne and shame as Ephraim himselfe confesses After that I was turned I repented and after that I was instructed I smote upon my thigh Marke here Ephraims worke is an after worke like Peters weeping after Christ had graciously looked upon him Ob. Oh but Ephraim and Peter had faith before but I finde my unbeliefe soigreat that I feare it will so provoke God as to make him with-hold from me what he promiseth in his Covenant A. 1. Doe you thinke that your (a) Rom. 3.3 unbeliefe can make or shall make the faith of God i.e. the (b) So the word 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 is taken Mat. 23.23 Tit. 2.10 fidelity or (c) Gal. 1 23-3.2 word of God of none effect No sure God (d) Mal. 3.6 gives this reason why hee doth not breake his Covenant and utterly destroy and consume men For I saith God change not therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed But Secondly I tell you and charge you from God to beleeve it that though you find your self unbeleeving yet you are not to question the truth and accomplishment of Gods promises for they are sure and not grounded upon your faith but upon his owne grace and his Son his merits and therefore saith the (a) 2 Tim. 3.12 Apostle though we beleeve not yet be remaineth faithfull he cannot deny himself Thirdly You may be mistaken in your selfe and thinke you doe not beleeve when you doe beleeve and herein you may erre upon one hand as the carnall man doth on the other for he thinks he doth beleeve when he doth not beleeve and you thinke you doe not beleeve when you do beleeve As a Cheater would put off his brasse for gold so an honest man may suspect his owne gold to be brasse therefore doe not say I have no faith because I have feare for there may be not onely true

the Covenant of grace requires but (n) Mat. 11.29 easie duties and performances but the Covenant of workes requires irksome toylsome and chargeable duties and performances Obj. Doe you call plucking out the right eye cutting off the right hand denying our selves taking up the crosse daily c. but easie duties A. 1. As Solomon (o) Pro. 14.6 1 Iob. 5.3 saith To him that bath understanding knowledge is easie so to them that are spirituall the Commandements of God are (p) Ro 7.22 easie and not grievous For it is somewhat (q) Cor. 5.14 11.8 naturall to a regenerate man to obey God as it is to a wife or a childe to obey the husband or father 2. The duties commanded in the Covenant of grace are easie to beleevers because Christ performes them in and for them As the Apostle (r) Gal. 2.20 said It is Christ that liveth in me (s) Phil. 4.13 Againe saith he I can doe all things through Christ that strengtheneth me The weight lyes more heavy upon the shoulders of Christ then upon mens shoulders Christus jubet juvat litera jubetur spiritu donatur as the care of providing for the family is more upon the father then upon the children and the husbandman is as much and more concerned in the fruitfulnesse of his field then his servant though the servant works also Q. But doth not the Covenant of grace also threaten Beleevers that are under it if they be disobedient and commit sin A. Yea sure there bee threatnings that doe belong to the Covenant of grace or the Gospel and these threatnings concerne those Beleevers that are under it but yet they are not such threatnings as are the threatnings of the Law viz. threatnings of damnation Q. What then are those threatnings of the Covenant of grace that concerne beleevers A. God (t) Psa 89.31 32. 2 Sam. 7.14 saith concerning beleevers That if they breake his Statutes and keep not his Commandements he will visit their transgressions with a rod and their iniquities with stripes Ob. Doth the Lord then chastise his owne children for their sins A. 1. Though most commonly Gods indulgence u Num. 23 21. Exo. 34.6 affection and tendernesse to his children be so great that he passes by millions of failings in them without (w) Iam. 1.5 so much as upbraiding or reproving them much lesse correcting or chastising them And though at other times God does correct them but not (x) Iob 1.8 at all for their sinnes as he did Job but to (y) Joh. 9.3 glorifie himself and to make them (z) Heb. 12.10 partakers of his holinesse yet 2. Without doubt God doth sometimes chastise his children for their sinnes as he did the Corinthians for their unworthy and unholy partaking of the Lords Supper For the Apostle saith For this cause many are weake and sickly among you and many are fallen asleep So Christ threatned the Churches of (a) Rev. 2.16 Pergamus (b) v. 20.22 Thiatyra and (c) Chap. 3.16 Laodicea Ob. But what wayes and kindes doth the Lord use to chastise his children A. 1. Sometimes in their souls by (d) Psal 51.8 9.10 11. withdrawing or witholding the sweet presence and powerfull working of his gracious and free Spirit whereby their soules are filled with sorrow trouble and terrour insomuch that they oft cry out like the (e) Psal 77.9 Prophet Hath God forgotten to be gracious hath hee in anger shut up his tender mercies 2. Sometimes the Lord chastiseth his children in their bodies with (f) Psal 38.7 8. sicknesse and weaknesses as you heard before of the Corinthians 3. Sometimes the Lord chastises them in their children friends and estates as he did (g) 2 Sam. 12 14 15. David (h) 1 Sam. 3 12.4.13 Eli and others 4. Sometimes the children of God may be (i) 2 Thes 3.14 suspended and excommunicated out of the society of Saints cast out of the Church and delivered unto Satan as the (k) 1 Cor. 5.5 incestuous person was who notwithstanding doubtlesse was a (l) 2 Cor. 2.6 7 8. true beleever Ob. How doth it consist with Gods love that he should correct and chastise his children A. Oh consider that Gods chastisements are but fatherly Remembrances and speciall signes of his love As the Apostle saith Whom the Lord loveth he (m) Heb. 12.6 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 the Greek word signifies as wel instruction as correction so the Hebrew word musar signifies Prov. 3.12 chasteneth and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth The Lord corrects his owne children to shew his care of them and also because they are not to be * 1 Cor. 11.32 Jer. 30.11 condemned with the world therefore they should not set light by his correction as the (n) 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Heb. 12.5 phrase is God oftentimes leaves the wicked and ungodly (o) Iob 21.9 unpunished And it s one of the greatest judgements for God to give a man his full (p) Hos 4.17 Pro. 14.14 As Abraham its probable suffered Ishmael to persecute Isaac because Ishmael was to depart and Isaac to abide So doth God suffer the wicked to persecute his children God called Ephraim his deare son when he was under chastisement Ier. 31.28 scope in sinne and its a signe that God cares not for such a man that hee leaves uncorrected And in this God deales as men use to doe viz. to have a stricter eye and hand upon their children then upon strangers because they intend that their children shall abide in the house and enjoy a fathers portion but that strangers shall be cast out Ob. But how can God correct his children for their sinnes seeing Christ hath made satisfaction for them A. Be confident of this that God doth not chastise his children because he is unsatisfied for their sinnes or dissatisfied with their persons For he hath said that he hath found a ransome and that he is (q) Mat. 3.17 and 17.5 well-pleased in Christ and doth much delight in them through him and that their sinnes are not (r) Rom. 4.6 imputed unto them As a naturall father doth not scourge his children Saints should account it a great honour to have God lay his hands upon them As some formerly accounted it an honour to be killed by the hands of Hercules or Aeneas because hee is unreconciled to them or because that should make satisfaction for their faults but because that way may prove advantageous to his children for the time to come So saith the Apostle The Lord corrects his children that they may be partakers of his holinesse And the Prophet (s) Esa 27.9 saith By this shall the iniquity of Jacob be purged Q. Doth the Covenant of grace or the Gospel give any liberty to sinne or any incouragement for men to continue therein A. Oh no but it doth (t) Tit. 2.11 teach and should teach all men to deny all
