Quest. 4.
Is there no duty in Religion so full of difficulty and self•denyal, but I desire to comply with it: and is all the holy and good will of God acceptable to my soul, though I cannot rise up with like readiness to the performance of all duties? according to that pattern, Psal. 119. 6.
Quest. 5.
Am I sincerely resolved to Follow Christ and holiness at all seasons, however the aspects of the times may be upon Religion? or do I bear my self so warily, and covertly as to shun all hazards for Religion: having a secret reserve in my heart, to launch out no farther than I may return with safety; contrary to the practice and re•olution of upright souls? Psal. 116▪ 3. Psal. 44. 18, 19. Rev. 22. 11
