S. What would you ask of God, if he should say, Ask any one thing and thou shalt have it.
W. Christ, I think! but still I am afraid lest this should be from love unto my self, and not unto the Person of Christ.
S. An holy self-love you ought to have, and that is not inconsistent with predominant love to the person of Christ.
W. How may I know it is holy self-love (that God approveth of) that moves me to be willing to accept of Christ?
S. If you desire Christ to make you holy, as well as to make you happy, and to free you from the power and dominion, as well as from the punishment and damnation of your sin.
