3. Continue in thy Vigour, and Painfulness, and Diligence. Young Ministers that are sound and sincere before God, are usually warm and diligent in the first years of their Ministry; and many do decline afterwards, and become more cold and remiss. This Exhortation is a check thereunto: Continue in them.
The Second thing in the words, is the double Advantage proposed to encourage Ministers to this hard Duty.
(1.) Thou shalt save thy self. Thy own Salvation shall be promoted and secured thereby.
How becoming is it for a Minister to mind his own Salvation? and to mind it so heartily as to be animated from the hopes of it, unto the greater diligence in his Ministry.
