1. If you have received Christ, you have received the great Reconciler that binds up the broken hearted, quiets those that tremble under the threatenings of God, for fear he should forsake and cast them off for ever.

2. If thou hast received Christ, thou hast received a perfect enmity to ⟨image 42⟩all sin, that will never let thee rest in sin, but be persuading thee from it, and conflicting in thee against sin in thy soul: If thou hast received Christ, thou hast not received a friend for sin, that will plead for, or give thee leave to commit sin; but one, that though he bear with thee in thy weakness, yet abominates thy sin. If thou hast received a Lord and Master to rule, to be consented and subjected to him, and to be ruled by none but in subordination to him, who will break those in pieces that refuse his Government: Obedience, and not verbal profession, is the thing he requires. Hast thou entertained Christ to be the Master of thy words, thoughts, and deeds, whose Government thou livest under, more than under any in the world?
