3. Use God's Means; Zech. 13.1. In that Day there shall be a Fountain opened to the House of David, and to the Inhabitants of Jerusalem for Sin and for Uncleanness. Rev. 7.14. These are they which come out of great Tribulation, which have washed their Robes, and made them white in the Blood of the Lamb. The Church knoweth no other Laver, and the Effect of it you receive in the Ordinances.

4. Keep your selves clean by a constant Watchfulness. James 1.27. Pure Religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, to visit the Fatherless and Widows in their Affliction, and to keep your selves unspotted from the World. The World is a dirty Place, you will soil your Garments, therefore you must avoid all Appearance of Evil; hate the Garment spotted with the Flesh. We cannot keep at too great a Distance from Sin; a bold Use of our Liberty showeth the Heart hankereth after Sin, as a Raven hovereth within the Sent of the Carrion.
