So that you see, where there is strong Faith, there is strong Obedience. A strong Faith will follow God fully in every way. In losing ways, as well as in gaining ways: In suffering ways, as well as in doing ways: In discountenanced ways, as well as in such as the World doth countenance: In strait ways, as well as in broad ways: in rugged ways, as well as in plain smooth ways: In difficult, as well as in easy ways.
