A Cabinet of Choice Jewels

Beschreibung

Being a plain discovery of, or, what men are worth for Eternity, and how it is likely to fare with them in the eternal world. Here is also a clear and large Discovery of the several rounds in Jacob's Ladder, that no hypocrite under Heaven can climb up to. Here are also such close, piercing, distinguishing and discovering evidences as will reach and suit those Christians who are highest in grace and spiritual enjoyments; and here are many evidences, which are suited to the capacities and experiences of the weakest Christians in Christ's school: And here Christians may see as in a mirror, what a sober use and improvement they ought to make of their evidences for Heaven; and how in the use of their gracious evidences they ought to live. First, upon the free grace of God. Secondly, upon the Mediatorial righteousness of Christ. Thirdly, upon the Covenant of Grace.
