They are distinguished in their 1ends: for the children of God propose the glory of God, and level all their thoughts, speeches and actions, as if they were messengers sent to carry him presents of honour. Thus did David, when he 2said, All that is within me praise the Lord: as though himself had rather be without praise, than his master: but the children of the world set up their own glory for their mark; like Nebuchadnezzar 3which said, for the honour of my ⟨image 126⟩majesty. Therefore they speak, and look, and walk, as if they did say to their tongue, and eyes, and feet, and apparel, as Saul said to Samuel, Honour me before this 4people.
