(v. 24, 25. Whereas 'twas very fit for Him, who was one of the Principal of the Scribes, (v. 18.) to leave a notable Example of Sincerity and Courage, and of Daringness to die for the Laws of God. (v. 28. and 31. Thus there are very many things, which though lawfull to us as Christians, are yet unseemly for us as Men; and do dishonour our Vocation, even then when they do not defile our Conscience. For how many Trades are there, very lawfull in themselves, which yet by us of the Clergy cannot lawfully be driven? And therefore Abstinence from These is to be reckon'd as a Duty, at least to our Quality, and our Rank, if not precisely to our Religion. Abstain we therefore (as much as may be) from all that carries any appearance, or shew of Evil; |
