A Saint Indeed: OR The great work of a Christian, Opened and Pressed; from Prov. 4. 23. BEING A seasonable and proper expedient for the recovery of the much decayed Power of Godliness, among the Professors of these times.

By Iohn Flavell M. of the Gospel.

Unusquisque a deo constitutus est sui cordis tanquam castri custos & defensor, contra suos hostes: Si argo non implorato auxilio, non exspectato succursu, adeo ad primam obsidionis castrametationem castrum tradat hosti crimen admittit prodition is manifestum: quid igitur dicendum de traditione clavium, bujus castri, antequam obsidione prematur? clavis est cogitato, haec enim cor aperit; cogitationem velvere est clavem cordis ad apertionem ipsius torquere, ut tandem re seratur.

Ames. de Conscien. p. 154.
