Conviatores, fellows in a journey, and thus we have CHRISTS company.h Whilst they walked and talked, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them. They that will walk to Christ, shall have Christ walk with them. He is the Truth, the ⟨p. 76⟩Way, and the Life: they that faithfully seek viam vitae, the way of life, shall find vitam viae, the life of the way. The Papists have great Pilgrimages to Shrines, Christ doth not travel with them: he hath no fellowship with them, that gives his honour to blocks and stones. Let my soul on the holy feet of faith and obedience, travel toward Jerusalem; then Christ will say, Vade mecum, thou shalt have my company. The good Christian cannot in any Country travel alone, he is sure of the fellowship of his Saviour.
