1 For Saints not to love, is to live in a contradiction to Scripture; the Apostle is continually beating upon this string of love, as if it made the sweetest music in Religion, Rom. 13. 8. Col. 3. 14. 1 Pet. 1. 22. 1 Joh. 3. 11. 1 John 4. 21. This Commandment we have from him, that he who loveth God, love his Brother also: not to love, is to walk Antipodes to the word; can he be a good Physician, who goes against the rules of Physic? ⟨p. 204⟩can he be a good Christian, who goes against the rules of Religion?
