CHAPTER VII.

Sect. I.--_And as it has been universally to men, so it has been given

them sufficiently--Those who resist it, quench it--Those who attend to

it, are in the way of redemption._

Sect. II.--_This spirit then besides its office of a spiritual guide,

performs that of a Redeemer to men--Redemption outward and

inward--Inward effected by this spirit._

Sect. III.--_Inward redemption produces a new birth--and leads to

perfection--This inward redemption possible to all._

Sect. IV--_New birth and perfection more particularly explained-New

birth as real from "the spiritual seed of the kingdom" as that of plants

and vegetables from their seeds in the natural world--and goes on in the

same manner progressively to maturity._
