3 Walking gets ground, its motus progressivus, standing still rids no ground, but walking doth; so a Christian, he goes about Christian duties, not only voluntarily and continually, but he grows up therein from time to time; so that this sense of the Doctrine is thus much; To lead a Christian course, voluntarily, continually, and increasingly, is a sign of fellowship with God; now that such as thus walk have undoubted fellowship with God, appears, Ephes, 5.8. Ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord, walk therefore as children of light, that is, children of God, for God is light, those that walk in truth and not in error and heresy, and in holy ways, they are children of God, Psalm 1.1, 2. the Law of God is the way of holiness and truth, and if he that walks in the way be blessed, then he hath fellowship with God (for in his fellowship stands all blessedness, Psal. 119.1, 2.)
