Page 13 - Wherefore we acknowledge a dutiful necessity of doing well, but the meritorious dignity of doing well we utterly renounce. We see how far we are from the perfect righteousness of the law ; the little fruit which we have in holiness, it is, God knoweth, corrupt and unsound ; we put no confidence at all in it ; we challenge nothing in the world for it ; we dare not call God to reckoning, as if we had him in our debt books. Our continual suit to him is, and must be, to bear with our infirmities, and...
Page 155 - She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law Of kindness. Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and He praiseth her.
