A86549	Salvation from sinne by Jesus Christ: or, The doctrine of sanctification (which is the greater part of our salvation) founded upon Christ, who is both the meritorious, and and efficient cause of sanctifying grace, purchasing it for, working & perfecting it in his people. Applied (as it was specially intended) for the better information of our judgements, and quickning of our affections in holiness, wherein our everlasting our everlasting happiness chiefly consisteth. / Preached in the weekly lecture at Evesham in the county of Worcester, by George Hopkins, M.A. minister of the Gospel there.; Salvation from sinne by Jesus Christ	Hopkins, George, 1620-1666.	1655 (1655)	Wing H2743; Thomason E1608_1; ESTC R208454	135,124	325

either_o all_o our_o old_a professor_n or_o these_o new_a one_o be_v much_o mistake_v but_o you_o will_v say_v these_o be_v time_n of_o great_a light_n and_o many_o of_o our_o young_a professor_n now_o see_v that_o that_o our_o ancient_a professor_n understand_v not_o in_o former_a time_n answ_n these_o be_v time_n wherein_o professor_n be_v more_o light_a than_o former_o but_o whether_o
