Resolved, That I Will Live So, As

Temples Have Their Images; And We See What Influence They Have Always Had Over A Great Part Of Mankind. But, In Truth, The Ideas And Images In Men's Minds Are The Invisible Powers That Constantly Govern Them; And To These They All Pay Universally A Ready Submission.

Godliness Is More Easily Feigned In Words Than In Actions

God Is The Highest Good Of The Reasonable Creature. The Enjoyment Of Him Is Our Proper; And Is The Only Happiness With Which Our Souls Can Be Satisfied. To Go To Heaven, Fully To Enjoy God, Is Infinitely Better Than The Most Pleasant Accommodations Here. Better Than Fathers And Mothers, Husbands, Wives, Or Children, Or The Company Of Any, Or All Earthly Friends. These Are But Shadows; But The Enjoyment Of God Is The Substance. These Are But Scattered Beams; But God Is The Sun. These Are But Streams; But God Is The Fountain. These Are But Drops, But God Is The Ocean.

A True And Faithful Christian Does Not Make Holy Living An Accidental Thing. It Is His Great Concern. As The Business Of The Soldier Is To Fight, So The Business Of The Christian Is To Be Like Christ.

Resolved, Never To Do Anything Out Of Revenge.
