Inferences.

FRom hence we infer, That Grace is the principal Thing.

2. How unsavoury are all graceless Persons? The whole World lieth in Wicked∣ness. They are like putrified or stinking Carrion in a Common-Shore, (as the Greek Word there signifieth.)

3. This may stir up all ungodly Ones to look out and cry mightily for Grace, the excellent Nature of which is set forth under the Metaphor Light, Vol. 1.

4. Let all who profess themselves Christians, examine themselves throughly, whe∣ther they are salted with Grace, or not. Are you savoury Men and Women? What is your Communication, your Speech, your Conversation? &c.

5. Take heed you lose none of this Divine Salt; you will soon become unsavoury, if you have not Salt in your selves.

6. You that should season others, should have much Salt in your own Hearts and Lives. Ye are the Salt of the Earth.
