2. Integrity: 1which is an universal subjection to every part of Gods will. The heavenly spirits follow the Lamb whether soever he goeth. In all places they attend upon their Lord, and ⟨p. 90⟩always behold his face, 2to know what his will is that they may do it. They are therefore by a kind of excellency said to do his commandments, 3hearkening to the voice of his Word. Never was there any stop or stay in any that ever entered into heaven at any thing that God willed to be done. This integrity also did David desire, where he said, Oh that my ways were directed to keep thy Statutes! 4then shall I not be ashamed when I have respect to ALL thy commandments: 5yea this did God himself earnestly desire for his people.
