to look back, and see we have lived the Life of the Righteous, and have a well grounded hope, we shall die the death of the Righteous. Therefore if you would always keep a good Conscience, you must have a tender regard to the regulating your Lives according to Divine Rule. Thus you have considerable motives to engage you to a Regular Conversation.
The last thing in the Application, is an Use of CONSOLATION, and that in two or three brief partic ulars.
1. That tho' the Lives and Conversations of the Best, are not altogether free from Irregularities in this Life; yet God is pleased to accept of, and account them as blameless and perfect before him, in and through the blessed Mediator, the Lord Jesus Christ, who is our Advocate with the Father; and has undertaken to present Believers in him, and walkers with him, with out spot and wrinkle before the Father, by virtue of that atoning Righteousness, which covers all our im perfections.
2. That whatever imperfections, and irregularities cleave to the Saints while here, they are hastening to a State of Life above, where they shall be eternally free from the least stain of Sin, or inclination to err or go astray; yea, delivered from all possibility of sinning or suffering, or being tempted to sin. Here is joy unspeakable and full of Glory. The Lord bless what you have heard, to whose Name be Glory and Praise for ever. AMEN.
