Let us labour to purge our selves by mortification more & more,1 he that hath this hope purgeth himself. 1And let us endure Gods purging of us, and justify Gods purging of us by afflictions; ⟨p. 120⟩and think that God hath this aim; certainly this is to make me more heavenly minded, to raise my affections up. I will therefore bear the anger of God, I have deserved it, and he hath holy ends in it to make me partaker of his righteousness. Let us purge our selves by grace, and endure the course that God takes to purge us by daily crosses; for God aims by it to wean us more and more from the world.
