It was to that other life. "He that loseth his life for my sake shall BY EDWARD HICKS. 187 find it." Here is the life that Lazarus lost, and hence the divine life arose in him, and he was brought into a state of comfort and consolation, in Abraham's bosom. But the death which the rich man experienced, was en- tirely different : « He that findeth his life shall lose it." He lost the light and life of God in the soul, and was brought into a state of hardness, pride, and pre- sumption ; a state of... fulness, in which he needed not a physician ; " for they that be whole need not a physi- cian, but they that are sick;" an.d again, "I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance." Some have applied this to outward riches; but I con- ceive that this falls very far short of the measure and sense of this testimony, to make this outward and carnal appli- cation. It is a description of the Pharisaical state, a state of fulness and richness. But with this great difference. This rich man was full of himself ; and all who are in a Pharisaical state are full of themselves.
