Those whom God has predestinated unto Life, he is pleased in his appointed, and accepted time, effectually to call by his Word and Spirit, out of that state of Sin, and Death, which they are by Nature, to Grace and Salvation⁠1 by Jesus Christ; enlightening their Minds, spiritually, and savingly, to⁠2 understand the things of God; taking away their⁠3 Heart of Stone, and giving unto them an Heart of Flesh; renewing their Wills, and by his Almighty Power, determining them⁠4 to that which is good, and effectually drawing them to Jesus Christ; yet so as they come⁠5 most freely, being made willing by his Grace.⁠6
