It gives the law, not only to his words and actions, but to his very thoughts and purposes ; so that...
Sivu xvi - mouth, and faid, Of a truth I perceive, " that God is no refpecter of perfons : but " in every nation, he that feareth him, " and worketh righteoufnefs, is accepted
Sivu 28 - Anabaptist, whether he wears a surplice or wears none, whether he hears organs or hears none, whether he kneels at the communion or for conscience' sake stands or sits, — he hath the life of religion in him, and that life acts in him and will conform his soul to the image of his Saviour, and walk along with him to eternity, notwithstanding his practice or non-practice of these indifferents.
