Oh that those who profess themselves to be the Servants of God, that they would especially endeavour to hold forth Gods Holiness you that are near to God, you that hope you are Gods Children, and make profession of his Name, labour you to hold forth the glory of his Holiness above all things, in your holy lives and conversations: for God stands upon this, To have his Name to be Sanctified, I will be Sanctified saith God, and I will be Glorified, so he doth interpret the glory of his Name by being Sanctified. As if God should say, That's the glory that I look for, That my Name may be extolled as Holy: And therefore the very first Petition that Christ teaches us to pray in the Lord Prayer, it is, Hallowed be thy Name, which is all one with this, Sanctified be thy Name; Oh let the Name of God appear to be holy in the World: that's another Note, that these two are joined together, I'll be Sanctified in those that draw nigh me, and I will be Glorified before the people.

Again observe, That it is the part of true friendship, to help friends in their distresses, and seek to comfort them from the Word.
