3. Take heed of being a worldly Christian: Oh! this is the David, that hath slain his ten thousands. A worldly heart will be bought and sold upon every turn to serve the Devils turn. Come to a worldly heart, and but promise him thirty pieces of silver, he will betray his Saviour. The Temptations ⟨image 94⟩of the world are great upon us, at this time, you that are Husbands, and Parents, know it; the world is a great temptation; but if we be overcome by the world, and the world not overcome by us, we shall never be able to overcome any one Temptation that is offered to us. Therefore that's an admirable support, In the world you shall have Tribulation, but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world: I have overcome the world for you; and likewise I have overcome the world in you. Oh Lord! if thou wilt but overcome the love and fear of the world, if thou wilt but arm us against the smiles of the world, then come what will, we shall stand steadfast.
