Let us look at all the offices and ordinances of Christ, as holding upon him the Head (as you heard before) that so we may have a more reverent esteem of them. Let us depend upon him for influence of life, and not depend upon means. Let us manifest in our conversation the spirit and life that we have received from such a Head as Christ is, that we may not be a dishonour to this our head.
