He used his wonted speech, repeated so oft in t•• Gospel: He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. Not th•• it is in our strength to hear and obey God. For God pr• pareth our ears, and with his grace frameth and draw• our hearts. And let them to whom the grace of God is g ted, beware least through their negligence, vanity, and lig nes they lose it not. Let them show such diligence, as G in his word requireth and prescribeth. They that do th have ears to hear. He saith therefore, take ye heed to wh God now speaketh, and whose hearts now he stireth a moveth, that you lose not this grace through your neglig be diligent, attentive, and circumspect, stirring up in yo selves the gift of God.
