5. Nature willingly received honor and respect; but grace faithfully attributes all glory and honor to God.
6. Nature is afraid of being put to shame and despised; but grace is glad to suffer reproach for the Name of Jesus.
7. Nature loves idleness and bodily rest; but grace cannot be idle and willingly embraces labor.
