And let us learn, my Brethren, to be more and more 1in the ways of God, as Apostates are more and more in the ways of sin, Oh that it were so with us in the ways of God, let's not content ourselves to do a little for God, but still more and more, as David in Psal 71. 14. I will yet praise thee more and more, I will add to thy praise, so the words are in the Hebrew: Lord, some praise thou hast had in the world, Oh that I could live to ad any thing to it, I will praise thee more and more.
And let us learn, my Brethren, to be more and more 1in the waies of God, as Apostates are more and more in the waies of sin, Oh that it were so with us in the waies of God, let's not content ourselves to do a little for God, but still more and more, as David in Psal 71. 14. I will yet praise thee more and more, I will add to thy praise, so the words are in the Hebrew: Lord, some praise thou hast had in the world, Oh that I could live to ad any thing to it, I will praise thee more and more.

They have sinned in Baal, and died, and now they sin more and more. Gross Idolatry hath grown upon men by fair pretences, upon plausible Principles.
