For the fear of the Lord is the Beginning of Wisdom, (Prov. 1. 7.) Nay (as Solomon goes on in the fourteenth Chapter, v. 27.) The fear of the Lord is a Fountain of Life; the attainment of which is the end of Wisdom. And thence 'tis set by our Apostle as the highest accomplishment of a Christian, To perfect holiness in the Fear of God, (2 Cor. 7. 1.)
