HAPPY is the Man who forms his Principles and Temper upon this perfect Model the Blood of Chrift; who comes unto God in every Act of Worship by this Way, and who keeps his Eye in the whole Course of his Life upon this Guide. Great is his Peace and Comfort: he walks fteadily in the Path of all Truth and Virtue, and is fure of Glory, Honour and Immortality.

* Agreeably to this whole Defcription of drawing near to God by the Blood of Christ, we are, I conceive, to understand, asking in his Name; i. e. as his fincere Difciples and Followers, and in Dependence upon the Grace of God in him.

N examining the Scriptural Senfe of bearing Sin, and of Atonement, in the Treatise upon the Scripture-Doctrine of Atonement, every attentive Reader will fee the great Advantage I have gained by ufing, and could not otherwife have gained but by ufing, the Hebrew Concordance; which must be allowed to be the most authentic Interpreter of Scripture, not only of the Old, but also of the New Teftament: seeing both are wrote, as to the main things, in the fame Words and Phrases; those of the New Teftament being but the Words and Phrafes of the Old tranflated into Greek. For the Subject Matter, viz. the things pertaining to the Kingdom of God, are in both

That they, the Apoftles, had received, not the fpirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God, that they might know the things, that are freely given to us of God; all the Bleffings of his Covenant.

Which I reckon an Advantage peculiar to the facred Writings above all others in the World. 2. That to understand the Senfe of the Spirit in the New, it is effentially neceffary, that we understand it's Senfe in the Old Teftament. But the Senfe of the Spirit cannot be understood, unless we underftand the Language in which it is conveyed. For which Purpose the Hebrew
