3. Much of Religion is transacted in the Mind. A Christian is always serving God; his Second Table Duties are First Table Duties. As carnal Men go about Heavenly things with a carnal Mind; so the Christian goeth about Carnal things with an Heavenly Mind.
4. God would be sure to have a Portion of time; therefore the Lord's Day was appointed. Isa. 58.13. If thou turn away thy Foot from the Sabbath, from doing thy Pleasure on my Holy Day, and call the Sabbath a Delight, the Holy of the Lord, Honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own Ways, nor finding thine own Pleasure, nor speaking thine own Words, &c. That it may be dear to us in the Flesh, and in the Lord, when we have God's Command, and the Laws of the Land too.
