DOCT. VIII. That God doth so rule and govern the mindes and wills of the godly, that even in the conflict of temptations and the flesh he suffereth them not al∣together to fall away from him.
YEt still this we hold, that as many as are truely ingrafted into Christ, they have their mindes and wills en∣dued already with the holy Spirit, and that for Christ his sake they are by God so ruled, governed, and sustained, that although he suffers them to be weakened sundry wayes, and by divers tentations, yet he never suffers themb 1.1 totally and finally to fall away sinking under their tenta∣tions, and so at length perish ever∣lastingly.
