If thou canst find in thy heart, that thou dost love God sincerely; although thou couldst never love him, but that he loved thee first. Joh. 21.17. And he said unto him the third time, Simon son of Jonah, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things, thou knowest that I love thee. 1 Joh. 4.19. We love him because he first loved us. Rom. 5.5. And hope maketh not ashamed, because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by ⟨p. 386⟩the holy Ghost, which is given unto us.
