Gods People are dear to God. They are his Spouse, his Children, his Members, purchased with the price of his blood; his inheritance, his Portion, all his comings-in. Those he dyed for, shed his blood for, one drop whereof is worth a thousand Worlds. And therefore those whom he was content to shed his blood for, certainly he doth more esteem than all the World besides.
