The Third Use is, of Exhortation, that seeing such a conversation is so much, and with such speciality called for, and yet so little seriously endeavoured by most; let me turn over to you the Apostle• exhortation to the Philippians: if ye would know how to behave at home and abroad, in the duties of Worship, and in the duties of your particular callings, stations and relations, even in all Commanded Duties; then, Only let your Conversation be, as it becomes the Gospel of Christ: And beware of doing any thing that is unbecoming the Gospel: or that may give ground to speak any ill of it; beware of letting the precious Promises lie by you unimproved; but study to be like them: O study Holiness in all manner of Conversation; which is, not only and simply to be Holy or to have Holiness, but a Holiness influenced by the Gospel-promises in Christ, believingly improved, as the Apostle exhorts, 2 Cor. 7.1.
