It is shown to consist in grace; and then the grace of Christ is exhibited under three divisions:— his personal grace, iii.–vi.; and under this branch are two long digressions, designed to unfold the glory and loveliness of Christ; — purchased grace, vii.–x.; in which the mediatorial work of Christ is fully considered, in reference to our acceptance with God, vii., viii.; sanctification, ix.; and the privileges of the covenant, x.; — and grace as communicated by the Spirit, and conspicuous in the fruits of personal holiness. This last division is illustrated under sanctification, as contained under the head of purchased grace.
