IV. Concerning the Inward Mani∣festation
of Christ.
WE believe, That God dwelleth with the
Contrite and Humble in Spirit; for he
said, he will dwell in them, and walk in them;
and that Christ standeth at the Door and knock∣eth,
if any Man hear his Voice, and open the
Door, he will come into him, and sup with
him. And therefore ought we to examine our
selves, and prove our own selves, knowing
how that Christ is in us, unless we be Re∣probates;
for this is the Riches of the Glory
of the Mystery which God would make known
among (or rather in) the Gentiles, Christ with∣in
the hope of Glory.
