But now I make haste to the several particulars contained in ¹my Text, I pray God ⁱsaith the Apostle) your whole spirit, and soul, and body be preserved blameless. And what he there prays for, this Text rightly understood and applied may work in us, that is, gracious affections, gracious minds, gracious actions. In the first place, a change upon our corrupt and wicked affections. If ⟨p. 10⟩they be ashamed of all that they have done, saith the Lord. Secondly, a change upon our blind minds, Show them the form of the house, and the fashion thereof, &c. Thirdly, a change also upon our actions, That they may keep the whole form thereof, and all the Ordinances thereof and do them.
