Then if we shall speak of the true service of God,¹ we may reduce into four points, all that which he requireth in the same, according to the declaration which he hath made in his holy Scriptures. The first is, that man put all his whole trust in him alone, awaiting for all his salvation of him alone, through Jesus Christ. The second, that he call upon him in all his necessities, for all things as well corporal as spiritual, according to the rule which he himself gave unto him. The third is, that he render graces & thanks to him for all the benefits that he hath received, & that he doth daily receive of him. The fourth, that he yield himself obedient unto him, in all things that he shall command him, as well in respect of his own person, as in respect of his neighbour.
