This Perseverance of the Saints, depends not upon their own Free Will, but upon the Immutability of the Decree of Election, flowing from the free and unchangeable Love of God the Father, upon the Efficacy of the Merit and Intercession of Jesus Christa and Union with him, theb Oath of God, the Abiding of his Spirit, and thec Seed of God within them, and the Nature of thed Covenant of Grace; from all which ariseth also the Certainty and Infallibility thereof.e
