So I should have said of the former virtues commended in the three fore-named Brethren, of being friends to the righteous, not so much for righteousness sake as for other commendable parts, we see in them, or for the hope we may have to be advantaged by them. This will not approve a man to be a true Christian, but to love a righteous man in the name of a righteous, an Abraham because he is an Abraham, servant to the most high God, this is a due sign of one sanctified.
