Semnons, the actual profit we get from, is when we deal seriously with God about what we have heard, i. 18.

Servant of God or Christ, diiierent applications of the term in scripture, v. 10 ; any kind of subserviency to God's will and secret counsels, or instrumentality in the execution of his decrees ; so Cyrus and Nebuchadnezzar, ib. ; noteth a pious care to perform God's revealed will ; so christian masters are said to have God for their master, ih. ; designation to any public office for God's glory, as magistrates. Old Testament priests. New Testament ministers, ib. ; especially the pro- phets and apostles, ib. ; Christ himself, because of his office of mediator, ib.

INDEX, 327

Servant of God is one that dedicates himself to God's use, vi. 405 ; and liveth under a sense and consciousness of his dedication, ib. ; to tkeux only the word of God is established, 406 ; notwithstanding weaknesses and failures, is for the main swayed by the fear of God, 407. Sei'vants of Christ now have present maintenance, afterwards they shall have their wages, i. 113.

God's best, should carry it thankfully all their days, viii. 276 ; and humbly, 277.

God's, some are in a peculiar manner, viii. 285 ; by voluntary choice, and not merely by necessity of nature, 286 ; de facto, and not only de jure, ib. ; really and indeed by self-dedication, and not only by visible profession and baptismal engagement, ib. ; some are, by general relation, and others by way of special attendance, 287 ; those who are may plead it when they want any mercy, temporal or spiritual, 288 ; not a plea contrary to grace, ib. ; nor contrary to humility, ib. ; speaketh comfort, ib. ; persuasives to become, 289 ; directions, 292 ; characteristics of, 293.

Of God, who may be said to be, xv. 463 ; how far a blessing cometh on the posterity of, 465 ; reasons, 468 ; how this can be reconciled with experience, 469 ; to whom the promise is most eminently fulfilled, ib. ; advice to jDarents, 470 ; advice to children, 471. Service, what is included under, i. 315 ; of God, must be suitable to his nature and attributes, 322.

Of God consists in adoration, affiance, thankfulness, obedience, i. 451.

Of God, the meanest, more honourable than any sinful dignity, iii. 443.

Of Christ, the highest honour, v. 11 ; implies resignation and consecra- tion to the will of Christ, ib. ; walking as the Master pleaseth, 12 ; teaches ministers that they must be diligent in the Lord's work, since they are servants, and must give account, 13 ; the people must give their persons all honour, and hear their doctrine with meekness and patience, ib.

Of God after conversion should be as earnest as of sin before, xi. 328 ; though a service, yet is more pleasant, more honourable, more profit- able than any other work, 329 ; should be as earnest on the part of the converted as that of sin is on the part of the unconverted, 331 ; in reason and strict justice it might be required to be more so, ib. ; care and solicitude to do the work, 332 ; industry and diligence, 333 ; promptness and readiness of mind, ib. ; resolution and self-denial, ib. ; thorough-going, ib. ; progress, 334.
