For we have through faith only a feeling of Gods favour towards us, and a good conscience. If ye live after the flesh, ye shall die. I put thee in remembrance, 1that thou stir up the gift of God which is in thee, by the putting on of my hands. §52That by good works we may show forth and grace our life, profession, and calling: I pray you, that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called. §63That we may escape temporal and eternal punishments: Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit, is cut down and cast into the fire. If ye live according to the flesh, ye shall die. Thou with rebukes doest chasten man for sin. §74That we may obtain at Gods hands corporal and spiritual rewards: which, according to the promise, accompany good works. Godliness is profitable unto all things, &c. For except God would have the hope of rewards, and the fear of punishments, to be motive causes unto good works, he would not use them in admonitions, promises, and comminations.
