And then Tenthly, I have out-bid all temptations, whatsoever 1good, pleasure, delights, honour they could expect in following any thing else, I showed them that they might have it, and much more in my self; there was nothing they could have in following after any of their ⟨p. 63⟩false worship […] creature they would have any good in, I made it appear that they might have as much in my Self, I out bid all temptations for the encouraging of them in my ways, that is in the full course of Scripture, we find the Lord propounding himself to his people as a lovely object, on purpose to draw their hearts away from all other things that might seem to be lovely, that he might have the whole soul to himself.
