09-The Glories of the New Covenant

In this closing chapter, I gather together some Collier gems
which either do not seem to fit the earlier chapters and yet
are too good to go unnoticed, or else, even though I have
used them elsewhere, they are so rich that they must appear
here.
In his The Exaltation of Christ in the Days of the Gospel,
1647, Collier highlighted the truth that in the new covenant
God promises to keep his elect, to preserve them from finally
falling away:
It is a part of the covenant of grace [that is, the new
covenant] on God’s part to keep [believers] from falling: ‘I
will put my fear into their hearts, and they shall not depart
away from me’ (Jer. 32:40).
