Again, When man is showed his uprightness as to his state, which is his life of justification; then he must also be showed his uprightness as to his way or course of life in sanctification, or holiness of conversation. The interpreter must not only bring man to Christ, but must tell him how he ought to walk in Christ. Man being set right, ought to go right, or (as 'tis said, Psal: 50.23.) To order his conversation aright. Mans uprightness in walking and working is an inseparable fruit of his uprightness in Being.
