but beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. (1 Cor. 13. 5, 7.) I will not say it is the weakness or fault of Charity to be Credulous; But yet exposing its owners to many Risques, and Inconveniences, it stands in need of great Prudence to keep it safe. The Disciples therefore did very wisely, in being afraid and suspicious of Paul himself, till Barnabas gave him a Testimonial, that by his preaching boldly at Damascus, and by his disputing against the Graecians, he prov'd himself an unfeigned Convert: as if the repentance of an Enemy were never to be trusted untill 'tis try'd; nor any other Triall could be sufficient, but That of bringing forth fruits meet for repentance. |
