they shall never perish and chap. 17. 2. as thou hast given him power over all flesh that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him This is the fathers will in the covenant and Christ accepts it it is his will too and so Christ comes into the world about the work and establisheth this covenant for the elect that they might be brought into it and have their share in it in his times And this is the truth we are upon That Christ hath established this covenant for his elect and doth manifest it to them in his times in the work of faith and now the covenant is said to be made with them for two Reasons 1 Because now they give consent to it and resign up themselves to the Lord in what he hath done for them and believe the grace and the covenant of grace now there is their acceptation of what Christ hath done and justifying him in the work together with their resignation of themselves up to him as their head and Lord in this blessed and holy covenant 2 They come now to claim a right in the covenant which before they could not do though God and Christ had a speciall right in them yet they could claim no right by covenant in the father and the son before or without believing and this is Christs work to work faith in all his elect He is the author and finisher of it I come now to the fifth particular namely the way by which Christ hath established this covenant and that is by his blood Oh friends in this undertaking of Jesus Christ for poor sinners this covenant must be by blood there must of necessity be the death of the Testator Hence it is called a Covenant that is by blood Zach. 9. 11. And the blood of Christ is called the blood of the covenant Heb. 10. 29. And Christ saith This is the Cup of the New Testament in my blood Luke 22. 20. And you will finde that the blood of Christ viz. Christ crucified his body and blood broken and shed hath its place in the whole work justification and remission of sins must be by the blood of Christ reconciliation and peace must be through his blood purging of the conscience must be by blood redemption must be by his blood Mediatorship Purchase of the Kingdom all by blood therefore it is called the blood of the everlasting covenant Heb. 13. 20. And by the shedding of his blood hath he established this covenant Oh learn hence to prize Christ crucified more have a high esteem of the blood of Christ and tremble in the thoughts of such horrid principles as tend to the trampling under foot the blood of the covenant counting ing it an unholy thing But 6th To proceed to the reasons or grounds why Christ hath taken away the first and established the second covenant Reason 1. That the Scripture might be fullfilled the many Promises of God in Scripture to this purpose to establish the new and make the first old as hath been already proved And this you will find to be the great end of Jesus Christ in his coming and work to fulfil Scripture So this covenant must be established by blood to fulfil Scripture Zach. 9. 11. See Acts 3. 19 21. The covenant made to Abraham that in his seed all nations should be blessed could not have been fulfilled if Christ had not established it Hence it is that Christ suffered himself to be betrayed and apprehended in order to his passion and would not make resistance Matth. 26. 52 53 54. How then shall the Scripture be fulfilled that thus it must be He makes the fulfilling of the Scriptures the ground of his yielding himself into the hands of sinful men Reason 2. Christ hath done this that so Gods special love might be made manifest unto the sons of men and that his grace even the blessing of the Gospel might come forth to us Gentiles through the establishment of this covenant In thy seed shall all the Nations be blessed Oh then let not us Gentiles argue out this covenant for assuredly there is no blessing to the Nations by that of the Law but by this of grace therefore let us learn to prize this special grace of this everlasting covenant of Gods special and everlasting love in his dear Son Reason 3. That salvation might be sure to all the seed therefore must this sure and unchangeable covenant be established for eternal salvation was not sure to any in the old covenant but in this covenant it is sure Rom. 4. 16. Therefore it is of faith that it might be by grace to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed c. Therefore it is that this covenant is called the sure mercies of David Isa 55. 3. This is the onely sure covenant here is grace and the truth of grace John 1. 17. The Law was given by Moses but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ Reason 4. Because it was the great design of God so to do viz. the sending of Jesus Christ into the world to effect this work the taking away of the old and establishing of the new covenant If this had not been done there had been nothing in order to the accomplishing of Gods design in the great and good work of salvation done The design of God in sending Christ was that men through him might be saved he came into the world to save sinners and there could be no salvation but in this covenant so that had not Christ done this work he had not been the Christ for he must answer Gods design for he came to do his wil. And this was one great part of his will the establishing of this free powerful holy rich and everlasting covenant of grace and glory I come now to Application I shall pass by that of information let the doctrine and proof thereof serve for information of the judgement in this matter But Use 1. Here it is a strong ground of consolation for all true believers Jesus Christ hath taken away the first the old and established the second the new covenant of grace and peace Here lyeth the grace the love the peace the glory all blessedness in this covenant and it is sure to all the seed and God hath made it to the end it might be sure that the comers thereunto might have strong consolation Heb. 16 17 18. This is a covenant in which it is impossible for God to lie He hath covenanted and sworn to it that we might have strong consolation therein Oh therefore my beloved friends you I mean that are interested in this sure everlasting covenant let it be your work to be much in the meditation and consideration of the grace the love the glory of this covenant All true believers may truly say with the Apostle Gal. 4. 31. So then brethren we are not children of the bond-woman but of the free Not of the covenant from Mount Sinai which gendreth to

that from Mount Sinai as hath been already minded though differing in terms being both conditional viz. life promised on terms of doing Or secondly as it was renewed to Abraham in Circumcision Or Thirdly as it was given forth more at large from Mount Sinai to the body of Israel 2. And more especially in the matter of the old Govenant as it was conditional in the first second and third place It was conditional a Covenant of works with Promises to it on condition of being performed But the Covenant of the Gospel was absolute without condition on Gods part so that notwithstanding the terms or words might be the same yet it being absolute and without condition it differs in the very matter as for Instance suppose a man condition with a servant and promise him reward for his service and require the service he conditioned for but gives nothing to enable him to the performance of it not having promised but every way enables his son for service and then requires it of him This quite changes the matter of the Covenant the first saith do this and live the second gives life first and then saith do John 11. 26. He that liveth and believeth shall never die The first saith Make you a new heart and a new spirit for why will ye die Oh house of Israel Ezek. 18. 31. The second saith I will take away the heart of stone and I will give you a heart of flesh and I will put my spirit in you and cause you to walk in my statutes c. Ezek. 36. 26 27. This is the distinct language of the new Covenant from the old I will write my law in their heart and I will put my fear in them that they shall not depart away from me And in thy seed shall all the Nations of the earth be blessed In a word that was a Covenant that might be broken that was broken This is a Covenant that cannot nor shall not be broken This is the first difference in the matter of them The first commands to do but gives no power The second gives power in and with the command John 5. 25. The dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God and live c. Hence it is that the first is called a voice of words Heb. 12. 19. The second is the power of God unto salvation Rom. 5. 16. The second difference between the two covenants was in the manner of administring and this difference lieth especially in these two things 1. In the manner of the giving 2. In the manner of the execution The first was given not onely as hath been minded with condition but also with a great deal of fear and dread Sounding of Trumpets burning of fire Blackness and Darkness and Tempest which made the people to tremble Exod. 19. 16. So dreadful was the giving of this covenant that Moses the mediator thereof said at the sight of it I exceedingly fear and quake Heb. 12. 21. thereby to present its nature a dreadful covenant hence it s called Deut. 33. 2. a fierie Law or a law of fire But the new covenant from Mount Sion was and is administred in all sweetness and love It preacheth forth grace and peace there is never a word of dread and darkness in it but to those that reject it Hence it is so ordinarily called the Gospel That is Glad tidings or good tidings of good things Tidings of Peace and Rcconciliation tidings of Pardon and Remission of sins in a word tidings of Grace and Glory this is the manner of the ministry of the new covenant 2 In the manner of execution and that in its power 1. the Law as hath been minded commanded obedience while it continued but gave no power to obey but this in its ministration begets life love and obedience it accomplisheth the birth from above it begets to a lively hope c. for it is the ministration of the Spirit There is never a soul actually in this covenant but by the virtue of it self Hence it is that persons come not visibly into it by natural generation as into the old but by regeneration and the work of the holy spirit Believe it friends this is a great Gospel truth that whosoever cannot set seal unto it will one day know that they are strangers to it notwithstanding the great cheats and deceits that are in the world about this matter Some carrying on the covenant in way of generation and others suppose they come to it of their own will both will find it first or last that they are no further then the first covenant that of Nature and short of that of Grace 2. That executed the curse wrath and vengeance on the Transgressors of it but this mercy and forgiveness healing of back-slidings the voice of the first was Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things that are written in the Book of the Law to do them But the voice of the second is if they sin I will be merciful to their unrighteousness and remember their sins no more If any man sin we have an Advocate with the Father Jesus Christ the Righteous and if we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins c. This is a covenant in which justice and faithfulness is ingaged to forgive the sins of those that are in it In a word that covenant in its administration brought first to duty and from thence some few even a remnant were brought to Christ This brings first to Christ and Grace and then to duty 3. They differ in the righteousness The righteousness of that covenant was a righteousness of works to be done by them If you observe and do these things this shall be your righteousness Deut. 6. 25. No longer work no longer righteous the righteousness of the law speaketh on this wise The man that doth them shall even live in them Rom. 10. 5. But the righteousness of this covenant is the righteousness of faith even the righteousness of Jesus Christ which comes on all that believe this is the name by which he shall be called The Lord our righteousness Jer. 23. 6. and in him shall all the seed of Israel be justified and shall glory Isa 45. 25. For by him viz. Jesus Christ all that believe are justified from all things from which they could not be justified by the law of Moses Acts 13. 39. Note believers in this covenant are justified from that which the Law of Moses could not justifie from What is that from sin the law could not justifie from sin That could curse and condemn for sin but could not justifie from sin but this covenant justifieth from sin because the blood of this covenant taketh away sin and that out of the conscience as well as out of the conversation so that in a word as the righteousness of that covenant was a righteousness of works and so was their own righteousness so saith the Apostle Phil. 3. 9. Not having mine

faith As God by it works faith so he supporteth and powerfully effecteth the work of salvation by the exercise imploying or working of the same faith for faith is of a working nature it worketh by love Gal. 5. 6. Therefore as it is your duty so let it be your work to live by faith and remember that word Heb. 3. 12. Take heed brethren lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God And that word Rom. 11. 20. Because of unbelief they were broken off thou standest by faith be not high minded but fear Remember thy duty as well as Gods Covenant and be faithful A second new Covenant duty is to live the life of love and that to God to his name to his word to his ordinances to his people and to all men enemies as well as friends this is the duty of the new Covenant And this faith and love where it is in truth worketh over the soul to a universal obedience to the whole will of Christ in the new covenant it saith Amen to eve y part thereof it dares not entertain thoughts of taking one part and leave another no that is carnal and too low for a new covenant spirited Christian It dares not change the ordinances of the everlasting covenant no nor trample the blood thereof underfoot But I forbear in this place because you will finde a more exact stating of the duties of the covenant in the end of this Treatise to which I refer you I shall close up the point in hand in answering two weighty Queries Q. 1. What should be the Causes or Reasons that God should adde a conditional ministry and several conditional Promises with positive duties to an absolute Covenant Answ 1. That therein he might hold forth as in the one the riches of his grace and absoluteness of his purpose concerning the salvation of his people so in the other he keeps up his authority as a father and the authority of Christ as our Lord and king That although the new covenant on Gods part be absolute yet had he not stated conditions on mans part his authority over his people must have fallen and they left without duty to God as a Father or to Christ as their Lord and King Joh. 5. 22 23. Mat. 7. 21. Luke 6. 46. Therefore it is conditional as to them that they might know their duty and have conscience of it And it is absolute on Gods part that so they might look to him and be comforted and live by faith in the stabillity and unchangeableness that is in the Father and the Son So that by this means the Saints are kept clear and conscientious of and to their duties in the covenant and comforted in looking up to the Lord from whence their strength comes 2 Because persons must be judged by the duties of the Covenant on mans part and condemned too for transgression of the conditions and duties of the covenant The absoluteness of Gods covenant shall not be the rule of judging Though that be the ground of all true happiness to the Saints yet the Saints themselves must be judged in the great day of the Lord and the conditions and duties of the Covenant shall be the rule by which they shall be judged See 2 Cor. 5. 10. Mat. 25. 34 35 36. we must not onely all appear before the judgement seat there to give an account but we must expect to give an account according to the things done in the body c. and the Lords own people many of them are like to have such an account to give as in which they may must suffer loss 1 Cor. 3. 12 13 14 15. and the eternal judgement of the wicked will be for the transgression of the rules conditions and duties of the covenant I mean such as have come under the sound of the doctrine of the covenant Mark 16. 15 16. Rom. 2. 7 8 9 10. So that by this means all the world shall stand guilty before God at that day Sutable to the preaching forth of the grace of the Gospel Whether in the works of creation and the daily good the world enjoys upon that account or the communications of God through the law or in the plain ministration of the Gospel And true believers shall then be acquitted and eternally pardoned by the grace of the covenant for then shall be the perfect and compleat administration of the grace of the covenant and in this manner and at this time it shall make the comers thereunto perfect Isay 33. 24. Heb. 8. 12. Then the inhabitant shall not say I am sick for the People that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity 3 That the Saints being justified and eternally saved by the grace of the covenant might have the reward of the kingdom promised dispensed to them sutable to their faithfulness in the performance of the conditions and duties of the covenant for thus it shall be Let none through ignorance account it Popish but keep clear in this That justification and a state of salvation is clear by the blood of the covenant our interest and claimed by faith and hope which faith if true is the faith of the operation of God Col. 2. 12. That is of the work of God but the reward so much spoken of shall be given sutable to the work either active in doing or Passive in suffering else what means those Scriptures Luke 19 17 18 19. with 1 Tim. 6. 17 18 19. 2 Cor. 4. 17 18. and the condemnation of the wicked shall be given to them sutable to the nature of their sin against Christ c. Luke 12. 47 48. Thus hath God stated conditions and duties in an absolute covenant that his own name and honour as a Father and Christs authority as a head and Lord might be preserved that he might be just and righteous when he judgeth and condemneth Fourthly That the persons who through faith come to profess an interest in this covenant might be manifest by their performance of the duties of the covenant The truth of faith in Christ and love to him is manifest by obedience to him and the people that have no heart to the duties of the covenant may justly suspect themselves to have no share in the grace in that Covenant Joh. 14. 15. If you love me keep my commandements ver 24. He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings c. 5 That believers might be kept humble and heedful Rom. 11. 20. Thou standest by faith be not high minded but fear Ver. 21. Take heed lest he spare not thee Heb. 4. 1. Let us therefore fear lest a promise being left us of entering into his rest any of you should seem to come short of it God would that his peoples confidence and watchfulness should go hand in hand till they are fully possest of the promised rest Psal 2. 11. Serve the Lord with fear rejoyce with trembling Saints must rejoyce and yet tremble

justifying sanctifying preserving comforting and glorifying grace Grace and glory and no good thing will be withheld from his People 4 I come now to the fourth particular proposed to wit the place where Jesus Christ mediates for his people and that is in heaven whither he ascended when he was taken up Act. 1. 10 11. A truth of special concernment for Saints to be established in for lose the place and lose the person and work and all at once A great cheat of the adversary at this day that perswades poor People of such a heaven and Christ within them as to deny and gain-say Christ and heaven above and pretend a supposition that if Christ be personally in heaven and by his Spirit in his people it must necessarily make two Christs But this is a truth and it concerns all true believers that expect salvation by Jesus Christ to believe and know That according to the Scriptures Jesus Christ is in heaven at the right hand of God in the work of mediatorship Angels and Principalities and Powers being made subject to him 1 Pet. 3. ●2 Heb. 4. 14. Seeing then that we have a great high Priest who is passed into the beavens Jesus the Son of God c. chap. 9. 24. Christ is entred into heaven it self now to appear in the presence of God for us Rom. 8. 33 34. It is God that justifieth c. It is Christ that died yea rather that is risen again who is at the right hand of God who also maketh intercession for us Thus you see its clear from the word of truth which I believe above all the fancies of men on earth That Jesus Christ is in heaven at the right hand of God in the great work of mediatorship He is said to be ascended up far above all heavens Ephes 4. 10. that is above all the known heavens that are seen with the eye or understood in their motions by skill and Art of natural wise men called therefore the third heaven 2 Cor. 12. 2. but I shall conclude this with Heb. 8. 1. We have such an high Priest who is sate on the right hand of the Throne of the majesty in the heavens And there it is he mediates and thither let the Saints look and there let their hearts and affections be Col. 3. 1. 2. 5 I shall pass to the fifth particular proposed viz. the manner how Jesus Christ performs this work of mediatorship and that is 1 By his bloud as he was a sacrifice 2 Vocally by word as he is a Priest and Son 3 Faithfully and tenderly 4 Powerfully and prevailingly 5 Particularly and distinctly for all Saints for all wants 6 Constantly to the end 1 Christ mediates with his bloud as he was a sacrifice for when he was on earth he offered up himself a sacrifice for the sin of sinners He then performed the Priestly work in offering himself but having offered up himself a sacrifice he is gone into heaven and makes good that sacrifice there The high Priest was a type of this in entring into the holy place and that not without bloud Christ is entred with his own bloud into heaven it self there to appear in the presence of God for us Heb. 9. 23. 24. And by his blood he mediates that is clear by the words immediately following my Text. Heb. 12. 24. And to Jesus the Mediator of the New Covenant and to the blood of sprinkling that speaketh better things then that of Abel The blood of Christ pleads for the Lords people it was shed for them and therefore it pleads for them better things then that of Abel Abels blood cried for venvengeance but the blood of Christ crieth for mercy for poor sinners for the giving down the good things of the Covenant for which it was shed 2. He mediates vocally in behalf of his people He prayes for them as a son as a high priest that is the son of God consecrated for evermore And that Christ doth so will appear 1. From scripture 2. From reasons grounded upon Scripture 1. From Scripture the words of Christ are full and plain in this matter John 14. 16. I will pray the Father and he shall give you another comforter c. Here is Christs promise at his departure that he will pray c. And this is further clear chap. 16. 7. If I go not away the comforter will not come but if I go I will send him c. that is I will pray the Father and he shall send him Obj. Christ saith chap. 16. 26. And I say not unto you that I will pray the Father for you c. by this it seems that Christ will not pray vocally for his people in heaven Answ This being rightly understood no whit derogates from the truth in hand or the former promise of Christ that he would pray the Father for his people when he came to heaven but rather confirms the truth thereof it being usual in the holy Scriptures that when any thing of special concernment follows that which goes before is exprest with a not not to deny the thing but to confirm the truth and excellency of that which in that saying is most especially intended and yet that which is brought in with a not is as fully true as the other Instances are John 6. 27. Labour not for the meat that perisheth but for that meat which endureth to eternal life Doth Christ in this place forbid labour for the meat which perisheth no doubtless for it was given as a law afterwards that such as would not work should not eat and idleness is forbidden in all therefore that we are to understand is Labor not onely or chiefly for the meat which perisheth So 1 Cor. 1. 17. Paul saith I was not sent to baptize but to preach the Gospel that is not onely or chief●ly sent to baptize 1 Tim. 2. 14. Adam was not deceived but the woman being deceived was in the transgression Was not Adam deceived yea doubtless and in other places it is laid all upon him death came in by him but Adam sinned not alone nor was first in the transgression now the Apostle speaks of women and applieth the womans sin to women and saith Adam was not deceived Women should know that not onely Adam sinned but the woman sinned and was first in the transgression too so that these instances may serve to clear up our understanding of the words of Christ I say not that I will pray for you that is I say not onely that I will pray for you but as a farther ground of strong consolation The Father himself loveth you by which I am sure to prevail in what I pray for and this is evident for he had promised it before 2. I shall prove this from reasons grounded on the Scriptures Reason 1. From his praying for them when he was in this world in some sence more remote from the Father and less exercised in the work of mediation gives us strong and undoubted grounds to

is the onely son the beloved son and you know how far an onely beloved son may prevail with his Father and not onely so but he is our Father likewise my Father and your Father saith Christ and the Father himself loveth you and therefore there is no question of prevailing for every good thing 2. There is assured application of the pardon of sin Christs sacrifice did purchase pardon but as he liveth in heaven a Mediator he applieth pardon by the purchase I saith Christ have given my life and blood for this poor sinner and therefore oh Father let him have pardon he shall have remission of all his sins 1 John 1. 9. and 2. 12. Therefore let it be your work beloved friends whose hearts are approaching to him to be by faith applying pardon and remission to your selves dayly for I know that you dayly need it and what ever is good for you believe it shall be done for the Father loves you and is as willing to do for you as your Advocate is to ask nay as you your selves can be to receive therefore no doubt of receiving what is good for you Onely here lieth the case your Father and mediator sees that to be good sometimes which you cannot see to be so and that makes you to dislike and it may be sees that would hurt you which you are willing to have and so denies you of it 1 In a word for the improving of the consolation of this doctrine call to minde the former truths viz. 1 The persons for whom he mediates 2 For what he mediates 3 The advantages that come thereby And make application to your souls and see if it fill not your hearts with all joy and peace in believing c. 2 Remember that it is a high and glorious state you are come unto above that under the law above all hypocrites formalists or notionists that trample underfoot this precious state In a word above all people in the world there is no higher estate attainable in this world then to come to Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant and therefore Rejoyce in the Lord and again I say rejoyce and bless his name that hath brought you hither you are come to God to Christ to Angels to Saints to grace and shall come to glory 3 Improve this precious priviledge to the utmost come to God in the name of Jesus come with boldness to the throne of grace c. Let not thy imperfections and unworthiness keep thee back remember in all thy approches to God that Jesus the mediator is with him for thee and be even liveth to make intercession for thee be encouraged therefore to improve thy interest in this Mediator who will never fail thee nor forsake thee Object Oh! But may some poor souls say I am a sinner and am affraid and oft times to look up and am much discouraged by reason of the sinfull nature and the evil that doth attend me what may I do in this case Answ So much the more need man of a Mediator and so much the more need to be looking up and improving thy interest in heaven and know he is a Mediator for those that are sinners burthened with sin therefore let not that discourage thee from looking up to Jesus but rather look the more to him Object I know not oft times how to pray nor what to pray for as I ought Answ He knows what thy wants are and will pray for thee he is thy Mediator and he gives his spirit to intercede for thee with sighs and groans which cannot be uttered Rom. 8. 26. Therefore go to God in the name of Jesus be not discouraged but seek there and what ever you pray for let it be in the name of your Mediator In truth I do believe that the Lords people have failed much in this matter and to be much looking to God in our Mediator would be the way to prevail much with God John 16. 23. Whatsoever ye ask the Father in my name he will give it you And above all take heed that ye be not ensnared by the adversary to turn your back upon this blessed Mediator that is in heaven for his people This I may say is the last and the great snare of the devil at this day to destroy faith in this great truth of the Gospel and to prevail on poor creatures to turn their back on Christ Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant Tremble at this abomination be it under never so glorious a pretence And lastly let this be a word to invite and engage poor sinners to come in to Jesus to this Mediator to this covenant a high and glorious estate Oh let not any poor souls content themselves in any estate short of this short of Jesus the Mediator is nothing but death Consider what your souls need is and that he invites all burdened and heavy laden sinners to come to him Oh therefore away to Jesus there is love there is life there is pardon there is peace and in a word the perfection of all good but short of him there is nothing but wo and misery and death indignation and wrath tribulation and anguish on every soul that doth evil New Covenant Principles OF Gospel or New Covenant principles of Truth necessary to be known and believed by all the Saints for their being established and standing stable and sound in the Faith 1 Concerning God THat God is in his being Heb. 11. 6.
