§. 81. Of Exhorting one another.
ANo•…•…her kind of means to uphold Christians in their holy profession is thus set down, but exhorting one another.
This conjunction of opposition, a 1.1but, is here used by reason of the difference betwixt the former means and this: and that in two things especially.
...
1. That is set down negatively, because it consisteth in avoyding an evill; which is, for saking their assembling together.
This affirmatively, for it incites to duty.
2. That respecteth men themselves, that they forsake not their assembling together. This concerns others, as well as themselves, namely, that they exhort one another.
The main duty of exhorting is expressed in b 1.2 a Greek compound, whereof see Chap. 3. v. 13. §. 143. And it is set down in a participle, to shew that it tend•…•… to
the same end whereunto the former negative caution tended: for they are both participles of the same tense, number, and person: and shew that Christians must be carefull, both in avoiding occasions of revolt: and also in using meanes for persevering to the end.
The object of this duty, one another, further sheweth that Christians must have an especiall care both of themselves and of others also: for both our selves and also o∣thers are comprised under this word, one another.
Indeed the word translated one an other, is not in the Greek, but necessarily under∣stood* 1.3 and fetcht out of the former verse, where it is thus expressed, Let us consider one another.
Of Christians care both of themselves and others, See Chap, 3. v. 12. §. 123. 124.
