10. That we must trust in God only, and in Him we must glory.

In Jeremiah: “Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the strong man glory in his strength, nor let the rich man glory in his riches; but let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understands and knows that I am the Lord, who do mercy, and judgment, and righteousness upon the earth, because in them is my pleasure, saith the Lord.”^42324232    Jer. ix. 23, 24. Of the same thing in the fifty-fourth Psalm: “In the Lord have I hoped; I will not fear what man can do unto me.”^42334233    Ps. lvi. 11. Also in the same place:  “To none but God alone is my soul subjected.”^42344234    Ps. lxii. 1. Also in the cxviith Psalm: “I will not fear what man can do unto me; the Lord is my helper.”^42354235    Ps. cxviii. 6. Also in the same place:  “It is good to trust in the Lord rather than to trust in man; it is good to hope in the Lord rather than to hope in princes.”^42364236    Ps. cxviii. 8. Of this same thing in Daniel: “But Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego answered and said to king Nebuchadnezzar, O king, there is no need to answer thee concerning this word. For God, whom we serve, is able to deliver us from the furnace of burning fire; and He will deliver us from thine hand, O king. And if not, be it known unto thee that we serve not thy gods, and we adore not the golden image which thou hast set up.”^42374237    Dan. iii. 16–18. Likewise in Jeremiah:  “Cursed is the man who hath hope in man; and blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, and his hope shall be in God.”^42384238    Jer. xvii. 5–7.  Concerning this same thing in Deuteronomy: “Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and Him only shalt thou serve.”^42394239    Deut. vi. 13.  Of this same thing to the Romans: “And they worshipped and served the creature, forsaking the Creator. Wherefore also God gave them up to ignominious passions.”^42404240    Rom. i. 25, 26. Of this thing also in John: “Greater is He who is in you than he who is in this world.”^42414241    1 John iv. 4.
