It is our duty, being recovered from sickness, to confess and make known the goodness of God and our sinfulness to those that are about us.
It is our duty, being recovered from sickness, to confess and make knowne the goodness of God and our sinfulness to those that are about us.
There is a three-fold confession; First of faith, that we believe what God hath revealed and promised to do for us. Secondly, of praise, that we thankfully acknowledge what God hath done for us according to his promise. Thirdly, of repentance, that we are heartily sorrowful for and bewail, what we have done against the command of God. We should be ashamed to sin before men, but let us not be ashamed to confess our sinfulness, and (in some cases) our special sins before men. Though we neither impose nor extort particular confessions from men (as the Papists do) yet it is good for men who have been under the afflicting hand of God, and have had great experience of his mercy in raising them ⟨p. 446⟩up, to declare what God hath done both for soul and body, that others may be bettered by their experiences.
