King Solomon left some Books in writing, wherein is seen some part of his wisdom; and Christ our king, 1hath left unto us his most sacred word, as it were a taste of his wisdom, sufficient matter for our salvation, this is that heavenly food, Mat. 4. 4. whereby our souls are fed unto eternal life, let us therefore labour for that heavenly food: and as the Israelites were careful to gather Manna to sustain their bodies, so let us be as careful to hear the word to feed our souls. The people in the 2time of Christ, John 6. 24. took great pains to follow Christ both by land and sea, and many now adays (I confess) are very forward to follow his faithful Ministers, but as they followed Christ so fast to fill their bellies, so these frequent Sermons for fashion to serve the time.
