Inference 3.

* 1.1If Christ died to reconcile us to God, give diligence to clear up to your own souls your interest in this reconciliation. If Christ thought it worth his blood to purchase it, it's worth your care and pains to clear it. And what can better evidence it than your consci∣entious tenderness of sin, lest you make new breaches. Ah, if re∣conciled you will say as Ezra. 9.14. And now our God, seeing thou hast given us such a deliverance as this; should we again break thy Commandments? If reconciled to God, his friends will be your friends, and his enemies your enemies. If God be your friend you will be diligent to please him, Iohn 15.10, 14. He that makes not peace with God is an enemy to his own soul. And he that is at peace but takes no pains to clear it, is an enemy to his own comfort. But I must pass from this to the third End of Christs death.
