It is not enough for us to think that we by our sins have deserved the wrath of God, and so to flee to Christ and to his righteousness, that our unrighteousness may be done away through him. Neither is it enough for us to set ourselves to the course of holiness and sanctification, and to the doing of these particular duties that we owe every one of us to another, in that relation wherein we stand; but there is more reqmred of us than all this, Because when we set ourselves to the doing of these duties, then incontinent there will arise enemies against us to assault us: and therefore it may be said furthermore, it is required of you that ye would set yourselves to fight against these enemies, and that ye would be strong in the Lord for that end.
