As It Is With Spiritual Discoveries And Affections Given At First Conversion, So It Is In All Subsequent Illuminations And Affections Of That Kind; They Are All Transforming. There Is A Like Divine Power And Energy In Them As In The First Discoveries; They Still Reach The Bottom Of The Heart, And Affect And Alter The Very Nature Of The Soul, In Proportion To The Degree In Which They Are Given. And A Transformation Of Nature Is Continued And Carried On By Them To The End Of Life, Until It Is Brought To Perfection In Glory.

Christ Is Like A River In Another Respect. A River Is Continually Flowing, There Are Fresh Supplies Of Water Coming From The Fountain-head Continually, So That A Man May Live By It, And Be Supplied With Water All His Life. So Christ Is An Ever-flowing Fountain; He Is Continually Supplying His People, And The Fountain Is Not Spent. They Who Live Upon Christ, May Have Fresh Supplies From Him To All Eternity; They May Have An Increase Of Blessedness That Is New, And New Still, And Which Never Will Come To An End.

But To Will That They Should Be Is To Decree Them.
