If God at any time give us hearts to keep Covenant with him, it is Obs. 7 more than is in us; we have not that power of our selves, therefore bless God for this mercy.
Men may go on in multitudes of services and yet be Covenant Obs. 8 breakers. 'Tis possible for a man to have committed the sin against the holy Ghost, and yet be a professor of Christ and and the Gospel; therefore we had need look to our hearts.
Many times in those things which we seem to be most Religious in, Obs. 9 there we may be false and Covenant breakers.
