Fulton Confession of Faith/Chapter XII

1. 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,^[1] by which they are taken into the number, and enjoy the liberties and privileges of children of God,^[2] have His name put on them,^[3] receive the spirit of adoption,^[4] have access to the throne of grace with boldness, are enabled to cry Abba, Father,^[5] are pitied,^[6] protected,^[7] provided for,^[8] and chastened by Him as by a Father,^[9] yet never cast off,^[10] but sealed to the day of redemption,^[11] and inherit the promises as heirs of everlasting salvation.^[12]
