First, that though they be weak, if 1their spirits be right, if of the right kind, they shall certainly hold out. That which Christ said for the comfort of the Church of Philadelphia, Revel. 3. 8, they may apply for theirs; Thou hast a little strength, saith Christ, and hast kept my Word, and hast not denied my Name.
