2. It is the fullest condition. Oh my Brethren! Saints living steadfastly on their foundation, are continually supplied by God, as the fountain doth continually issue out it self into the streams; I know it is best living upon a single God. How many thousands be there yet living in England, that can tell you, they never enjoyed more of God, than when they enjoyed least of the Creature. Some have professed to me, their Prison was to them as a Palace, that were troubled more with these things, than ever you were, and the God of Heaven grant you never may.

A man that stands steadfast, is like a man on a Rock, the waters come, they may dash themselves in pieces, but never shall be able to dash him in pieces, he is fixed on a Rock, and therefore stands. A man that stands steady to his Scriptural Principles, is like Sampson with his Locks about him, let all the Philistines come, what cares he, he is able to conquer them all.
