*The parts of this instruction of the Church, are Doctrine and exhortation: both comprehended, Rom. 12. 7, 8. Doctrine, by laying forth the Truth, and confuting ⟨p. 360⟩of contrary errors; that so the purity of faith may always remain sound and uncorrupt in the Church. Exhortation, which sharpeneth the Word, and setteth an edge upon it, by applying the same, and making use of it, as the necessity of the people requireth. And these two aptly answer to the two parts of the soul of man; his mind or understanding, and his will and affections. Both which by this means God provideth for.
