The godly man is a praying man: -- The true fearers of God will practice family prayer -- The sincere servants of God will make conscience of secret prayer -- Baptised persons are under sacred and awful obligation to the Lord -- The Lord's Supper is an ordinance which believers are under an indispensible obligation to observe -- It is the property of a sincere godly man, not to sit with vain persons -- Sleeping at sermons is a great and a dangerous evil.
