Ch10 notes:
-Understanding justification is the key to the enjoyment of assurance
-Obedience provides evidence that bolsters faith, but "faith cannot be forced into us by our efforts to be obedient; it arises only from larger and clearer views of Christ"
-If we wish to give the saints unwavering assurance, we must give them a deeper view of the unwavering Christ to whom they belong and to whom they have been united

Ch9 notes:
-Rome/Council of Trent/Bellarmine hate assurance: "if assurance of salvation is a reality, then the necessity of the extended sacramental process leading to final justification [as taught by Rome] becomes null and void"
-Faith says "Christ is able to save;" assurance says, "I am someone who has been saved through faith in Christ."
-Marrow on assurance didn't contradict WCF, as the Scottish Kirk alleged
