5. 1Take heed of any thing that may darken your evidences, or damp your comforts: a small drop of ink or dirt falling upon an Evidence, may make it illegible, or darken it: people make nothing of small sins, but small sins do not the least hurt to the soul; if it were no more than this, small sins will raise up a jealousy between God and the soul; great sins will destroy peace, little sins will disturb it; the least hair casts its shadow; and a barley corn laid upon the light of the eye, will hinder the sight of the Sun as well as a mountain: abstain from all appearance of evil, if you desire God should be a God of peace to you, 1 Thess. 5.22. cum 23.
