We are as a city set upon a hill, in the open view of all the earth. \u2026 We profess ourselves to be a people in covenant with God, and therefore \u2026 the Lord our God \u2026 will cry shame upon us if we walk contrary to the covenant which we have promised to walk in. If we open the mouths of men against our profession, by reason of the scandalousness of our lives, we (of all men) shall have the greater sin.167<\/p>\n
Let us study so to walk that this may be our excellency and dignity among the nations of the world among which we live; that they may be constrained to say of us, only this people is wise, and a holy and blessed people; that all that see us may see and know that the name of the Lord is called upon us; and that we are the seed which the Lord hath blessed.
