Description

This is the third and final section of this manuscript. The full title of the material, derived from Hughes's sermons on Romans 7:25, is "The THIRD Estate of A Christian here below, wherein is discovered the devided condition of a Justified Soule betweene GOD and SIN With severall Characters that doe Cleerely distinguish a Gracious Soule from a wicked man." The tract quotes Romans 7:23 on the title page, but explicates Romans 7:25.
