I will give them one heart and one way, that they may fear me for ever, and will put my fear into their hearts, that they shall not, or may not depart from me, (i.e.) I will deal so above measure graciously and bountifully with them, as well in matters relating to their Spiritual condition, as in things concerning their outward condition, that, if they be not prodigiously refractory, stubborn, and unthankful. I will overcome their evils with my Goodness, & will cause them to own me for their God, and will reduce them, as one man, to a loving and loyal frame and temper of heart, that they shall willingly with a free and full purpose of heart fear and serve me for ever. Sect: 55.
