Animadvers.

I see not but that an imperfect Conformity to the Rule, may denominate a man righteous, though not perfectly righteous; as well as imperfect Qualifications (which you grant) may de∣nominate one holy, though not perfectly holy: These two [Qua∣lification] and [Conformity to the Rule,] being indeed the same. For what is the Qualification of the Soul, which makes it holy, but the Rectitude of it, and its Conformity to the Rule? which makes it righteous? And are not the wills of the Regenerate made comformable to the will of God, in some measure, and yet not in full measure? W•••• there not some Con∣formity to the Law in Paul, when he could say, I delight in the Law of God after the inward man? But was this a per∣fect Conformity when he was forced to say, But I see another Law in my members, &c. Rom. 7. 22, 23.
