Leg. 9. That I would leave with you, is this, Let not a day pass over your head, without calling the whole man to an exact account. Well, where have you been acting to day, Hands? what have you done for God to day, Tongue? what have you spoke for God to day? This will be an advantage many ways unto you: but I can only touch on these Legacies.

Leg. 10. Labour mightily for a healing spirit. This Legacy I would leave with you as matter of great concernment. Labour mightily for a healing spirit: away with all discriminating names what-ever, that may hinder the applying of Balm to heal our wounds: labour for a healing spirit; discord and division becomes no Christian. For Wolves to worry the Lambs, is no wonder: but for one Lamb to worry another, this is unnatural and monstrous. God hath made his wrath to smoke against us for the divisions and heart-burnings that have been amongst us. Labour for an oneness in love and affection with every one that is one with Christ, let their forms be what they will: that which wins most upon Christs heart, should win most upon ours; and that is his own grace and holiness. The question should be, What of the Father? What of the Son? What of the Spirit shines in this or that person? and accordingly let your love and your affection run out: this is the tenth Legacy.
