1.1 All persecutors of his members. John 15. 18. If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before you; And it is exponed v. 20. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you. And whoever loves not the Brethren are not translated, 1 John 3. 14. and they who love them not hate them, 1 John 3. 14. compared with v. 15. how carnal lust and the love of glory from men hindereth influences of the Spirit to love Christ; See John 8. 42. If God were your father, ye would love me. 44. Ye are of your father the Devil, the lusts of your father [Greek or Hebrew] ye will do; he was a murderer from the beginning, v. 50. I seek not mine own glory. The strong love of Christ in the heart is a chamber and a house for the Spirit to act in.
