In-Text nor figs of thistles, so neither can thorns be gathered from grapes, nor thistles from figs; and as we cannot expect a clean thing from an unclean, so neither an unclean thing from a clean. It is a meere delusion to think that an holy heart can consist with a prophane life, nay to allude to Saint Johns expression, if any may say he love God, and walketh not before him, he is a lyar: Since his practise giveth the lye to his pros•ssion, and the dissonancie of his life proclaimeth a no to what he saith with his lips. And therefore let us all think we heare Christ speaking to us as he did to his Spouse, Let me see thy countenance, to wit in good works, so the Chaldoes Paraphrase, as well as heare thy voyce; and again, Set me as a seal upon thy heart, nor figs of thistles, so neither can thorns be gathered from grapes, nor thistles from figs; and as we cannot expect a clean thing from an unclean, so neither an unclean thing from a clean. It is a mere delusion to think that an holy heart can consist with a profane life, nay to allude to Saint Johns expression, if any may say he love God, and walks not before him, he is a liar: Since his practise gives the lie to his pros•ssion, and the dissonancy of his life proclaims a no to what he Says with his lips.
