concerne the bodies of men that are conditionall As (t) Psal 39.9 There is no want to them that feare the Lord. And (v) 1 Tim. 4.8 Godlinesse hath the promise of the life that now is Now there bee none but those that feare God and are godly that can lay claim to these promises Object But when I see my selfe so vile and nought and my heart so sinfull how can I have that confidence in Gods promises Answ It is not any thing that you can finde in your selfe that is or ought to be the ground of your faith and hope but you must say as the Prophet said Though my (w) Ps 31.10 strength faileth because of mine iniquity and though my (x) Ps 40.12 flesh and my heart and my (y) Ps 143.7 spirit faileth (z) Psal 119 81. yet I will hope in thy word Learne in this case to (a) Ro. 4.18 hope or beleeve as Abraham did against hope and as (b) Heb. 11.11 Sarah that considered not the deadnesse of her owne wembe but rested upon the word of promise And say as Mary (c) Luk. 1.38 said Be it unto me according to thy word For (d) Ioh. 20.29 blessed are they that have not seene and yet have beleeved Object But God hath long promised and I have a long time waited and expected and yet he performes not his promise Ans Though some count God slackin performing his promises yet he is sure and his promises (e) Confirmed by Gods oath Heb. 6.17 certaine and (f) Psal 77.8 never faile Therefore the children of Abraham should be like their Father and wait patiently that they might obtaine the promise as it s (g) Heb. 11.15 said of him After he had patiently endured he obtained the promise Thus having shewed how the Promises are applied I come now to shew how they are divided Q. How are the Promises divided A. Severall wayes Either 1 Absolute or Conditionall 2 Evangelicall or Legall 3 Generall or Particular 4 Reall or Personall 5 Common or Speciall 6 Principall or lesse principall 7 Direct or by consequence 8 Spirituall temporall or eternall or promises for the life that now is or that which is to come 9 Informing or Assuring Q. How shall I find the Promises readily and according to my occasions A. Here followeth a vary ready way for I have set them downe Alphabetically or according to the Letters beginning with A but note foure things further 1 That I doe forbeare to put downe the words of the Promises because you may search in Gods own Book for them 2 I doe not begin with spirituall promises and then temporall and eternall but in regard this is onely for the finding of them I have put them downe rather Alphabetically and in a Concordantial way 3 I have put the informing Promises or such Promises as doe give light but doe not runne absolutely upon the left side of the Page under the words Informing Promises and the absolute Promises upon the right side of the Page under the words Assuring Promises I was willing also to make a third Columne or part in the Page to shew how the Saints did apply those Promises but the narrownesse and littlenesse of the Leafe would not beare that 4 Where there are double Promises as Promises made of such a grace and then to such a grace therein I begin with the first and put the word Of in the margent on the left hand and then the word To following which you will quickly and easily discerne And herein also I thought to begin with absolute Promises and those made with sinners at first and then with conditionall Promises made to Saints but this I thought would be a more dark and doubtfull way An Alphabeticall and easie way to finde both Informing and Assuring Promises as they concerne mens severall states and conditions A Acceptance That God doth and will accept of the persons and performances of his people Informing Promises Eph. 1.6 Job 42 2.

in Ps 94.5 breake him in pieces Ob. Yet for all this the Covenant of grace may be broken if not on Gods part yet on mans part for it is said plainely that the Israelites brake the everlasting Covenant Esa 24.6 A. By the Covenant here is meant the (e) 2 King 18.12 Law or ten Commandements which the Israelites brake as it is in the (f) Heb. 8.9 Hebrewes They continued not in my Covenant and I regarded them not saith the Lord. Ob. But did not the Lord make this Covenant with the people of the Jewes and yet for their unbeleefe they are cast out and broken of these sixteene hundred yeares A. You are to consider the Jewes (g) Rom. .2 28 29. Gal. 2.15 with Rev. 2.9 two wayes either carnall and spirituall or Jewes onely by name nature and profession or else Jewes indeed viz. the faithfull and sincere hearted people of God or for the elect Jews that are yet to be called As for the first sort of them God did never make the Covenant of grace with them neither were they ever in or under the saving part and promises thereof And as for the faithfull he never brake promise with them and for the elect Jewes that are yet to be called God will remember the Covenant made with their Fathers and will (h) Esa 59.20 Ro. 11 27 28. performe it unto them their children Ob. But how could those carnall Jewes be cast out of the Covenant if they were never in A. It s usuall in Scripture language to speake of persons not as indeed they are but as they seem to be as in Exod. 32.33 God threatens to blot their names out of the booke of life whereas indeed they were (i) Rev. 20.15 never in the booke of life unlesse by the booke of life you understand the (k) Ps 69 2â— booke of naturall life or of the (l) Deu. 29.20 life of communion with the people of God as that Scripture is to be understood but they were rather written in the (m) Jer. 17.13 Earth then in Heaven So (n) Joh. 15.2 branches are said to be in Christ when they are not really but (o) v. 6. seemingly so In this sense those carnall Jewes and carnall beleevers may be said to bee in Covenant with God and in no other sense for were they really and indeed in Covenant with him they could never bee cast out nor the Covenant broken with them For the whole word of God is very (p) Ps 9 3 5. 19.7 111.7 sure and all his promises very (q) 2 Cor. 1.20 certaine grounded upon the (r) 2 Tim. 1.19 unchangeable purpose and (s) Heb. 6.17 counsel of God so that he being altogether wise (t) Joh. 21.17 knowes how to performe and (u) Gen. 17.1 Isa 43 13. al-sufficient is able to performe (w) 1 Thes 5.24 faithfull and must performe (x) ps 145.8 gracious and mercifull and therefore will and cannot chuse but performe Nay since God hath never (y) 1 kin 8.56 Iosh 21.45 and 23.14 failed nor brok promise surely he will not do it Fiftly It is a peaceable Covenant or a (a) Is 54.10 Eze. 37.26 Covenant of peace for when God enters into this Covenant with men it is a signe hee is at (b) Ez. 16 60 61 62 63. peace with them and pacified towards them (c) Eph. 2.13 14. through Jesus Christ Also then the Lord (d) Is 57.19 speakes peace to their soules and (e) Is 33.17 Rom. 4.17 sets up peace in their consciences so that they walke with God in peace as the (f) Mal. 2.6 expression is concerning Levi and are (g) luk 1.79 led into the way of peace and their (h) Phil 4.7 Rom. 8.6 Isa 26.3 hearts and mindes are kept by that peace so that it may bee said that the children of the Covenant have (i) Is 54.13 great peace with (k) Ro. 5.1 God with the (l) Ez 34.25 Hos 2.18 Iob. 5.23 24. creatures in (m) Is 66.12 Psa 29.11 life and (n) Ps 37.37 Ier. 34.5 death Obj. But there bee many that are doubtlesse in Covenant with God and yet have neither spirituall nor worldly peace neither peace within nor peace without neither peace living nor peace dying so that it may be said of them as the expression is that they know not the way of peace and they hear rather a voice of trembling and of feare then of peace A. 1. It is true as (o) Eccl. 3.8 Solomon saith in another case that there is a time of war and a time of peace and doubtlesse many a deare and precious soule that is in Covenant and favour with God may for a time want-inward peace and till the Lord himselfe (p) Ps 85.8 speakes peace and (q) Is 45.7 makes peace the soul cannot enjoy it yet mark how graciously the Lord speaks (r) Is 27.5 Let him take hold on my strength and hee shall make peace with me and I (s) Is 57.19 create the fruit of the lips peace peace to him that is a farre off and to him that is neare c. It may be the fault of many soules to refuse to receive peace as the (t) Ps 77.2 Prophet refused to be comforted or else to ground it upon their sense and feeling and when that is gone their peace is lost whereas inward and soule-peace comes through (u) Rom 5.1 15.13 beleeving Seeing then God is the Authour and Giver of peace Christ the Prince and promiser of peace the Spirit the worker and sealer of peace and the Gospel the word and ground of peace and the Ministers the Heraulds and Messengers of peace such beleevers as want peace of conscience should strive to have the peace of God to (w) Col. 3.15 rule in their hearts and to beleeve that God will (x) Ps 29.11 Isa 26 12 blesse them with peace and to take heed if God do speake peace to them that they returne not againe to the folly of unbeleife y Ps 85.8 2. For outward peace or peace with the creatures God gives that often to his Saints according to his (z) Is 66.12 Hag 2.9 promise and when they want it yet they have peace in (a) Ioh 16.27 Christ And God so orders and sanctifies their troubles to them that they do receive no (b) Is 11.9 hurt but much (c) 2 Cor 7 4 Rom 5 3 benefit thereby Sixtly It is a holy Covenant Dan. 11.28 30. Luke 1.72 Psal 105.42 Quest Why is it called a holy Covenant A. 1. In respect of the Authour of it The most holy God who is proclaimed by the Seraphims i. e. the Angells (d) Is 6 3 Rev 4 9. it is in two Greek copies nine times holy thrice together holy holy holy And this Covenant God did (e) Ps 60 6. speake in his holinesse and (f) ps 89

Luke 1.69 Esa 22.22 23 24. 24 Some Promises doe belong unto Christ and the godly as Psal 91.11 12 13 16.

Zach. 1.16 Mat. 9.13 Joel 2.32 with Rom. 10.13 Mar. 10.30 30 Sometimes spirituall deductions and inferences drawn from naturall reasons are noted for Promises as Matth. 7.11 Luke 18.6 7 8. and 2.28 31 Some Promises may be applied both to Jewes and Gentiles as Esa 19.23.24 25. and 25.7 and 32.1 2 3 4 5.

Zach. 2.12 and 8.3 4 5 6 7 8 12 13. 33 Some Promises are made by some men unto other men as Ier. 38.24 34 Sometimes generall Promises are applied in particular as 1 Kings 8.37.40 with 2 Chron. 20.8.10 35 Sometimes the same Promises that is particular in one place is made generall in another place as 2 Sam. 7.14 with Psal 89.29 32. 36 Sometimes one and the same Promise is applied in severall cases as 1 Cor. 10.26 and 28. and Iosh 1.5 compared with Heb 13.5 that Promise which was made to Ioshua against feare is applied to the Hebrews against covetousnesse 37 God doth oftentimes repeat and renew the same Promises See Gen 12.3 and 22.18 and 26.4 and 28.14 38. Some Promises are onely typicall Promises if I may so call them or Promises made through the Type yet with the relation to the Antitype as to accept of mens offerings for to make atonement for them and their sins Lev. 1.4 Num. 15.25 26 28. 39 Some Promises are made by God unto particular men as Exod. 3.12 Deut. 31.23 Ioel 1 5 6 7.

Yes but most of them are spirituall promises which you shall find gathered together underseveral heads in answer to the last question Q. Why doth the Lord make and performe his promises A. 1 For his owne glory which is the highest and chiefest end of all his actions Esa 60.21 John 14.13 2 Cor. 1.20 2 For his owne names sake viz. * Christ is the maine cause of making performing all the promises and also the substance of them all called the Covenant it self Esa 42.6 and 49.8 Christ or his gracious Attributes Esa 43.25 and 48.9.11 Ezek. 39.25 Also because of his owne Sovereignty Exod. 19.5 Rev. 17.14 as particularly his love and loving kindnesse Esa 43.4 Luke 6.35 his zeale 2 King 19.31 his faithfulnesse 1 Thess 5.24 3 Because they are adopted and married to him 1 Sam. 12.22 Jer. 31.9 and 3.14 Exod. 20.24 4 To incourage and comfort his people Deut. 10.8 Luke 21.17 18.

Rom. 11.28 Gen. 21.13 7 Sometimes God is pleased to give this as a reason that his people do and performe somewhat which hee counts worthinesse in them though indeed none can plead worthinesse Iosh 6.17 1 King 21.29 Ier. 39.18 Rev. 3.4 8 God is pleased to take occasion from their very sinnes to make and performe some promises to his people See Gen. 8.21 Esa 57.18 19. Hos 2.13 14. Q. How are the promises to be applied and to be made use of A. First Vnderstandingly as the Apostle exhorted the Ephesians not to be unwise but understanding what the will of the Lord is Eph. 5.17 Many may say of the promises as Iob said I uttered that I understood not things too wonderfull for me which I knew not Job 42.3 The Disciples of Christ (a) Mar. 9.32 Luk. 18.32 were and doubtlesse beleevers still are very ignorant in understanding the promises therfore that you may apply the promises understandingly consider these ensuing particulars 1 Consider in what estate or condition you judge your selfe to be in whether a sinner and unbeleever or a Saint and beleever If you judge your self to be a sinner then you must apply your selfe to those promises that are suitable to sinners As that Christ dyed for the ungodly and for sinners And that Christ came into the world to save sinners Ro. 5.6 8. Object But my case is this that I do not know whether I am an unbeleever or a beleever Ans If it be so with you then you must either put it to the worst and suppose your self to be an unbeliever and so begin the world again as the Proverb is I mean go as a sinner to seek out Christ in some suitable promise as I mentioned before or else you must looke to those promises made for assurance and there is your most proper legacy and through that door you must expect the Lord to come out to you 2 You are to consider whether you come to the promises as one that hath no conditions or as one that hath conditions If you finde no conditions in you then you must not goe to a conditionall promise but if you finde the conditions in you then are you to addresse your selfe to those promises that are suitable for you and may relieve you therein Object I pray you cleare unto me what you meane by having the conditions in me Answ I meane thus that some soule may say I am hungry and thirsty after Christ and I am heavy and weary laden and I would lay my burden upon Jesus Christ Now such a soule hath the conditions and qualifications that are mentioned in some promises As blessed are they that hunger and thirst after righteousnesse for they shall be filled And the heavy and weary laden they shall finde rest to their soules Matth. 5.6 and 11.28 29. Object But what if I have not those conditions in me as to feel my selfe hungry thirsty and heavy laden Answ If you finde not these or such conditions in you then you are not to apply your selfe to those promises that are made to such as have those conditions in them But you are to seek out for other and more suitable promises which are absolute and without condition Object Are there any promises absolute and without condition Answ Yes I have shewed this before in one of the Rules concerning the Promises But to instance in a few there is a promise of justification (b) Es 43.25 I am be saith God that blotteth out thy transgressions for my owne names sake So also in another place (c) Ez. 36.25 I will sprinkle clean water upon you and you shall be cleane So there is a promise of pouring out of the Spirit God promiseth to (d) Joel 2.28 poure it out upon all flesh Many more I might instance in as of giving a (e) Ez. 36.26 new heart and taking the stony heart out of their flesh 3 Understand this that in many of the Promises men are considered passively or such as can doe nothing till God doth work in them As that in John And they shall be taught of God (f) Joh. 6.45 Say you in this case as David (g) Ps 119.49 said Remember thy word unto thy servant in which thou hast caused me to hope 4 Consider in applying and using the promises that where God hath not excluded men they ought not to exclude themselves lest they sinne as much in refusing grace as others do in abusing it 5 In the application of the Promises look not onely upon the words but upon him that
