I. WHEN MAY WE BE SAID TO HAVE BEEN WITH JESUS?

1. When we have been engaged in private devotion.

2. When we have been attending public worship.

3. When we have been partaking of the Holy Communion. There "we dwell in Christ, and He in us."

II. BY WHAT PROOFS SHOULD MEN TAKE KNOWLEDGE OF US THAT WE HAVE BEEN WITH JESUS?

1. By our humility.

2. By our zeal.

3. By our heavenly-mindedness.

4. By our holiness — hatred of sin, and determination to avoid it.

(R. Davies, M. A.)
