8. To all those for whom Christ hath obtained eternal redemption, he doth certainly; and effectually apply, and communicate the same; making intercession for them, uniting them to himself by his spirit,a revealing unto them, in and by the word, the mystery of salvation; perswading them to believe, and obey;b governing their hearts by his word and spirit, andc overcoming all their enemies by his Almighty power, and wisdom; in such manner, and wayes as are most consonant to his wonderful, andd unsearchable dispensation; and all of free, and absolute Grace, without any condition foreseen in them, to procure it.e
