John Flavel pressing us to duty (Works, vol. 5, pp. 591-592):

Examine yourselves, professors, search your hearts, commune with your reins, nothing more concerns you in all the world than this doth. O that you would be more in your closets, and oftener upon your knees! O that you would look into the Bible, then into your hearts, and then to God, saying with David, “Search me, O God, and know my heart; prove me and try my reins, and see if there be any way of iniquity in me!” Never did religion thrive in the world since men’s heads have been so over-heated with notions and controversies, and their hearts so sensibly cooled in their closet-work.​
