Then Secondly, It is nothing for people to reform in Gods Worship, except they reform also in the duties of the Second Table, 1that's wonderful. The duties of the Second Table, Mercy and Judgment, Turn to thy God, and keep Mercy and Judgment. Many men and women that seem to be forward in duties of Instituted Worship, which is very good; we are to honour God, God is jealous in that business; but now, together with that, if we be not conscionable in the duties of the Second Table, of Mercy and Judgment too, it's nothing, all will vanish and come to nothing except thou livest righteously and mercifully with men also, as well as worship God; do not think to put off thy conscience with the duties of Worship, except thou doest keep Mercy and Judgment, that's more General.
