Note, [1.] Those that follow Christ shall feast with him, they shall fare as he fares, so he has bespoken for them ( ch. xii. 26 ): Where I am, there shall my servant be also. [2.] Love to Christ is testified by a love to those that are his, for his sake; our goodness extendeth not to him, but to the saints.
