Do you wonder that no one tenders you the affection which you do not merit, since you prefer your money to everything else? "What therefore do you persuade me to?

And when the Son of God comes with tenders of a spiritual and eternal happiness and glory, He finds not faith in man to believe it; but, as the poor man would not believe that any one man had such a sum as a hundred pounds it was so far above what he possessed so no man will hardly now believe that there is such a happiness as once he had, much less as Christ hath now procured.
