3. In our works we give glory to God: and so first by glorifying his Son: by acknowledging and praising and honouring of Jesus Christ; and submitting our selves to his ordinances, John 11. 4. and so also when we honour them that fear God and bear his Image: secondly, when men abound in good works and the fruits of righteousness, and grow in grace and knowledge, and so make the Image of God more and more evident, suffering themselves to be so framed by the doctrine of the Gospel, as to be changed from glory to glory by the power of the Word, 2. Cor. 3. 18. Phil. 10. 11. 2. Pet. 3. 18. & 4. 11. Revel. 1. 6. thirdly, when men worship God in the beauty of holiness, not only putting on their best clothes, when they come to serve God, but clothing themselves with their best devotions, and affections, and reverence, and humble adoration, 1. Chron. 16. 28, 29. fourthly, when men submit themselves unto God, and let him do with them whatsoever he will: they that ascribe dominion to him, ascribe glory to him, 1. Peter 5. 10. 11. Lastly, when men do all that they do to the glory of God, studying how God may be acknowledged or praised for all they do, being in all things some way to the praise of his glory, 1. Cor. 10. 31. Ephes. 1. 12. 14.
