Resolved, To Study The Scriptures So Steadily,

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.

Resolved, To Examine Carefully, And Constantly, What That One Thing In Me Is, Which Causes Me In The Least To Doubt The Love Of God; And To Direct All My Forces Against It.

Resolved, Never To Do Any Manner Of Thing, Whether In Soul Or Body, Less Or More, But What Tends To The Glory Of God; Nor Be, Nor Suffer It, If I Can Avoid It.

God Is Glorified Not Only By His Glory Being Seen, But By Its Being Rejoiced In.

Truth Is The Agreement Of Our Ideas With The Ideas Of God.
