Chapter 12: Of Adoption
_______ All those that are justified, God vouchsafed, in and for the sake
of his only Son Jesus Christ, to make partakers of the grace of adoption,
by which they are taken into the number, and enjoy the liberties and privileges
of the children of God, have his name put upon them, receive the spirit
of adoption, have access to the throne of grace with boldness, are enabled
to cry Abba, Father, are pitied, protected, provided for, and chastened
by him as by a Father, yet never cast off, but sealed to the day of redemption,
and inherit the promises as heirs of everlasting salvation.
