Believers must pursue a holy life, and their conduct must be better than that of unbelievers. In his day, Jeremiah Burroughs was grieved to see that among professing Christians, a holy life was uncommon. Would his heart be similarly grieved if he were living today?
Burroughs judged the power of godliness to consist not in lofty speculation regarding theological minutia, but rather in a holy conversation, a holy conduct. He shows that to live a holy life, a Christian must first be acquainted with the root from which all holiness must spring. Unless we do all for and from Christ, our lusts will not be mortified, our duties will not be accepted, and our consciences will not be purified. We will not be strengthened against affliction; neither will we persevere. We must not be brought to glory in ourselves, but in Jesus Christ.
