Sincere Love to God is an obediential Love,§9 it makes a man Cordially obey the Will of God, rather then any thing in the world besides. This is evident by the Language of Christ, gIf a man love me, (saith Christ, to wit, sincerely) he will keep my words. He that hath my Commandments, and keepeth them, He it is that loveth me, ibid. v. 21. And by the Language of his beloved Disciple, hThis is Love, that we walk after his Commandments. The great Character of sincere Love to God, set by Christ and his beloved Disciple, is obedience, to wit, Cordial obedience to all the revealed will of God; and hence it is evident▪ That sincere Love to God is an obediential Love.
