3. The revelation of the Gospel unto sinners made in divers times, and by sundry parts, with the addition of Promises and Precepts for the obedience required therein, as to the Nations and persons to whom it is granted, is meerly of the Soveraign will and good pleasure of God, not being annexed by vertue of any promise to the due improvement of mens natural abilities, by vertue of common light received without it, which none ever did make, or can so do: And therefore in all ages the Preaching of the Gospel hath been granted unto Persons and Nations, as to the extent or straitning of it, in great variety, according to the Counsel of the Will of God.
