K any will not work, neither shall he eat, is a fundamental principle in the divine economy. The only cure vouchsafed for the evils of the Ml, is found in the active pursuit of those noble ends which God originally set up as the goal and admiration of the human mind. The sure guaranty of wealthy increase lies in the consecration of ourselves and all our substance to the Lord. " All that we can have," says Swinnock, " we have it on this condition, to lay it down unto the honor of our Mas- ter, f...rom whose bounty we received it" A sluggard who attempts to live ffratts in the world, and especially isuch a nuisance in the church, is a useless cipher among men, a burden to the earth, and a loathsome excres- cence on the healthy growth of society, sucking otherwise pro- ductive aliment from the resources of the general good, but yielding in return neither fruit nor ornament On the other hand, the industrious and upright man, however obscure may be his origin, and lowly his pursuit, finds the best prosperity, the most enduring wealth, and the lofHest dignity and p^wer.
