[16], 82, [1] p.; 19 cm. (Facsimile Text Society. Series III: philosophy ; v. 2) A discourse on I. John ii. 3,4. And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his Commendments. He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his Commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. `Inke and Paper can never make us Christians, can never beget a new nature, a living principle in us; can never form Christ, or any true notions of spirituall things in our hearts. The Gospel, that new Law which Christ deliveered to the world, it is not merely a Letter without us, but a quickning Spirit within us.' (p. 5) -- `Nothing puts a stop and hinderance to the passage of Truth in the World, but the Carnality of our hearts, the Corruption of our lives. 'Tis not wrangling Disputes and Syllogisticall Reasonings, that are the mighty Pillars, that underprop Truth in the World; if we would but underset it with the Holinesse of our Hearts and Lives, it should never fail. Truth is a prevailing and conquering thing, and would quickly overcome the World, did not the Earthinesse of our Dispositions, and the Darknesse of our false hearts hinder it. Our Saviour Christ, bids the Blind man, wash off the Clay that was upon his eyes, in the Pool of Siloam, and then he should see clearly; intimating this to us, that it is the Earthinesse of mens Affections, that darkens the Eye of their understandings in Spirituall things.'
