and in Isaiah, "Wash ye, make you clean, put away the evil of your doings from BEFORE MY EYES, cease to do evil:" and then, "though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool." i. 16, 18. 114. To what has been said above may be added, I. That christian charity is for every one to discharge his duty faithfully in his calling; for thus, if he shuns evils as sins, he daily does what is good, and is himself his own particular use in the common body; thus also the common good is provided for, and that of each individual in particular. II. That other works are not properly works of charity, but are either its signs, or benefits, or debts. FINIS. |
