And hence, If you have Wronged another man in what you have done, you must Vigorously Endeavour all possible RESTITUTION. Restitution, a Thing too little Understood, too little Exhorted, too little Practised; Restitution, without which there can be no Right Repentance.
And hence, If you have Wrong'd another man in what you have done, you must Vigorously Endeavour all possible RESTITUTION. Restitution, a Thing too little Understood, too little Exhorted, too little Practised; Restitution, without which there can be no Right Repentance.
This is the Repentance, which is found in every True Believer; It must be found in every one that would be Saved.
III. And, Holiness, Holiness; A Patient Continuance in Well-doing. There is no Life in the Faith, which is not Productive of an Holy Life; Tis not a Faith, which will bring to Everlasting Life. If the Grace to Believe on the Lord JESUS CHRIST, be infused into the Soul, the Habit of every other Grace is at the same Instant infused. I will show you ⟨p. 19⟩the Motto on the Golden Gates of the Holy City; Heb. 12.14 Without Holiness no man shall see the Lord. An Holy Life, a Life pressing after Universal and Perpetual Conformity to the Rules of Holiness; This, This is the Royal Path leading to Salvation; Yea, tis no little Part of our Salvation.
