Agreeable admonitions for old & young. Or, Aged piety honoured, and early piety quickened.…

The Great GOD, is a most Glorious God. He is, The God of Glory; the King of Glory. God the Father, is the Father of Glory. God the Son, is the Lord of Glory. God the Spirit, is the Spirit of Glory. His Excellencies are infinite. It is His Glory, to be JEHOVAH, of Himself, and for Himself alone; Eternally and Necessarily Self-existent, Independent, All-sufficient, Unchangeable; the First Cause and the Last End of all things. He is Glorious in Holiness, in Faithfulness, in Power, in Wisdom, in Goodness. There can be no Addition ⟨p. 38⟩to His Glory; Who can Add unto that which is Infinite? God was in Himself as Glorious, before He made the world, as after His making of it. And if the world were filled with Blasphemies against God, He would not yet be less Glorious than He is.

But the Glorious God is infinitely satisfied, in the Manifestations, the Operations, and the Exhibitions of His Glory. The First Being is admirably, Energetic. God from all Eternity, Beholding of Himself, there was Begotten an Image of Himself. This is the Son of God, the Brightness of His Glory, the Express Image of His Person. Infinite is the Satisfaction of God, from all Eternity, in beholding of His Glory, as it is Expressed in His Only Begotten Son; whose Triumph it is, I was set up from Everlasting, I was brought forth before the Mountains were settled; Then was I daily His Delight! And why did God, so satisfied from all ETERNITY, proceed unto the Works of Creation, and Providence, even unto all the Works of Time? This is, that He may take the satisfaction of Beholding His own Glory,
