As many as received him, to them he gave Power to become the Sons of God. ¹O what duty lies upon us in this respect; If I be your Father, where is mine Honour? and if ye call on the Father, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear. God looks for more honour, fear, reverence, duty, and obedience from a Son than from the Rabble of the World: if thou art Gods Son, thy sins more ⟨p. 55⟩offend God then the sins of all the reprobates in the world; why alas, thy sins are not mere transgressions of the Law, but committed against the mercy, bounty, and goodness of God vouchsafed unto thee; thy sins have a world of unthankfulness joined with them, and therefore how should God but visit?² you only have I known of all the Families of the Earth, therefore will I visit you for all your Iniquities. O think of this, you that are Gods Sons; and conform to Christ, for he was an Obedient Son.
