3. Their ability to do good Works, is not at all of themselves, but wholly from the Spirit of Christ; and that they may be enabled thereunto, besides the Graces they have already received, there is necessary ana actual influence of the same Holy Spirit, to work in them to will, and to do of his good Pleasure; yet are they not hereupon to grow Negligent, as if they were not bound to perform any Duty, unless upon a special Motion of the Spirit, but they ought to be diligent inb stirring up the Grace of God that is in them.c
