Can any man add any thing to Gods holiness?
Can any man adde any thing to Gods holinesse?
No, we cannot add any holiness unto God, or take away from him: but that as God is holy in his properties and actions, and also in his ordinances both in Church and Common-wealth; so we desire it may be, and that not only in our selves, but also in all men, that they may be acknowledged and reputed as they are worthy in themselves to be reputed and accounted.

What is considered of the words together?
VVhat is considered of the words together?
That it is a singular benefit of God to be admitted to the sanctifying of his name, and as it were to set the crown upon his head, and to hold it there; especially seeing he is able himself alone to do it: and when he would use other thereunto, he hath so many Legions of Angels to do it; yea, that can raise up stones to do it.
