Quest. 5. Are you careful and conscionable, humble and holy in your lives? If you neglect God in your ordinary conversations, and walk not with him on other days, you are unlike to meet him comfortably here. And if you are slight and careless in your ordinary duties, you will find here that God took notice of it.

Quest. 6. Do you faithfully endeavour to exercise Faith, Repentance, Love and all Sacramental Graces in the use of the ordinances? You come not to a mere receiving but to a Work Have your souls been adorned with the wedding garment? and do you come hither for a meeting with the Lord Jesus Christ? Do you see him by faith, and take all that is here Represented to you, as if you had seen the things themselves! Do you remember that your Lord is coming, and do you lift up your heads in the expectation of your Redemption, and do this in remembrance of him till he come? An idle loitering in Gods work is not the way to find the sweetness of it.
