3. We expect to be _made perfect in love_, in that love which _casts out_ all painful _fear_, and all desire, but that of glorifying him we love, and of loving and serving him more and more. We look for such an increase in the experimental knowledge and love of God our Saviour, as will enable us, always to _walk in the light, as he is in the light_. We believe the whole _mind_ will be in us _which was also in Christ Jesus_: that we shall love every man so as to be ready _to lay down our life for his sake_. So as by this love to be freed from anger and pride, and from every unkind affection. We expect to be _cleansed from all our idols, from all filthiness_ whether _of flesh or spirit_: to be _saved from all_ our _uncleannesses_, inward or outward, to be _purified as he is pure_. 4. We trust in his promise who cannot lie, that the time will surely come, when in every word and work we shall _do his_ blessed _will on earth as it is done in heaven_: when all our conversation shall be _seasoned with salt_, all meet to _minister grace to the hearers_: when _whether we eat or drink or whatever we do_, it shall be done _to the glory of God_: when all our words and deeds shall be _in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks unto God even the Father thro’ him_. 5. Now this is the grand device of Satan, to destroy the first work of God in the soul, or at least, to hinder its increase, by our expectation of that greater work. It is therefore my present design, first, to point out the several ways whereby he endeavours this: and, secondly, to observe how we may retort these fiery darts of the wicked one: how we may rise the higher by what he intends for an occasion of our falling.
