1 That in worshipping of God, there is a drawing nigh unto Him.
1 That in worshiping of God, there is a drawing nigh unto Him.
2 That when we do draw nigh to God, we should take heed to our selves that we sanctify Gods Name.
2 That when we do draw nigh to God, we should take heed to our selves that we sanctifie Gods Name.
3 If we do not sanctify Gods Name in our drawings nigh to Him, then certainly God will sanctify his own Name upon us.
3 If we do not sanctifie Gods Name in our drawings nigh to Him, then certainly God will sanctifie his own Name upon us.
These are the Three Points that I intend to handle; And especially the second to handle largely among you. I confess upon another occasion in one Sermon I have spoke out of these words, but now I intend not only in general, to show you how you should sanctify Gods Name in Worship, but likewise in the particular Acts of Worship: As sanctifying His Name in Prayer, in Receiving the Sacrament, in hearing the Word; in the several chief parts of the Worship of God, how his Name should be sanctified: For in all these you do draw night to God. And for that end I have pitched my thoughts upon this Scripture. But before I come to these Three great Points, that are the principal Points in the words read unto you; I shall take up divers other Notes of observation that lie up and down as it were scattered, that are of great use, and will help us further to make use of this Scripture in the other points that I shall come to afterward, and handle more largely.
