He is th«r Loirl Jesus Christ. hanng Kaithis to Micro in Him. Evils be shunned, because they a™ of the devj' and Irorn the devil. Good Works to br done, because they are of God and from God, and they cuirht to be done by man as of himself, but with thft bcliet tint thev arc from the Lord, operating in him by him. Ihcrcarc two things which constitute the essence of God—love and wisdom. And there are thru" which constitute the essence of His love to love others out of Himself; to desire to be one with them ; and to makethem happy from Himse.r, Ihe same three constitute the cssence of His wisdom j because love and wisdom in God make one, ami love wills these things, and wisdom accomplishes them.

Ihe word ol God is Divine truth clothcd in human language, and adapted to the varied status ol the human heart, that thus a man may know (joU. and learn to know and do His will. V.l f .y« continue in My word, then are )*e My dweiptes indeed." John viii. 31. "Therefore a 1 things whatsoever ye would that men should do unto jou: do ye even so unto them ; for this is the law and the prophets. Matt. vii. 8. The Ten Commandments point out what evils arc to be shunned in order that men may attain eternal life. ; " I hat it is not so difficult to lire the life of [ heaven as if commonly believed is evident frorv, f this—that when anything presents itself that one , knows to be insincere and unjust, to which his mind is disposed, he need not only think that it ought not to be done because it is contrary t® »• the Divine commands. If a man accustoms himj self so to think, and from custom derives the habit, he is then by degrees conjoined to heaven ; » and in so far as lie is conjoined to heaven, the l higher degrees of his mind arc openedand in so i for as these arc opened he sees what is insincere «md unjust; and in so far as he sees these evils they can be shaken off, tor it impossible that any I evil can be shaken off until it be seen. This is a p state into which a man may enter from freedom ; for who is not capable from freedom of thinking ' in this manner ; But when he has made a begin--3 mng all goods are wrought in him by the Lord, l anu He causes him not only to soft evils, but al--5 sonot to will them, and finally to become averse r i" 0 , lc,n * Ibis is meant by the Lord's words. 4My yoke is easy and My burden is light. I xi. 30 Hut it should be known that the j difficulty of so thinking, and likewise of resisting* evils, increases in proportion as a man from tho will commits evils, for in so far he becomes 1 accustomed to them, until at length he docs not ( see them, and afterwards loves tbem, and from p the delight of love excuses them, and by all kinds , of fallacies confirms them, and declares that they are allowable and good.
