John iii. 16, 17.
For God so loved the world, that be gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him, ſhould not periſh, but have everlaſting life.
The Lord's love and care to us has declared itſelf many ways, and eſpecially in this point, that this privy conference with Nicodemas, ſpoken at this time for our conſolation, it hath pleaſed the Lord to put it up in regiſter, that it may be the conſolation of many; and ſuppofe it was privy, and in the night, yet it hath pleaſed the Holy Ghoſt to bear record of it, that all believers, to the end of the world, may have their conſlation in it.
Now, in theſe verſes read, is,
I. The fountain of our ſalvation, The L ve of God.
II. There is the means whereby he has uttered it, which is, by the ſending of his Son to be humbled and glorified.
III. The means to get Chrift, that is, by faith only.
