The sacred Anchor.
Titus 2.•3. Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God, and our Saviour Jesus Christ.
A Christians happiness is in reversion, it is yet behind; a Saint in in this life is aeternitatis candidatus, a candidate and expectant of heaven; he hath little in hand, but much in hope; so saith the Text, Looking for that blessed hope, &c.
There is enough to make us breathe after that hope▪ if we look either Intra, or Extra.
