Now what Parity, what Proportion betweene our workes which are but temporall and finite, and the reward which is eternall and infinite: The Naturall Phylosopher, and any one that is not a mere naturall, will tell vs that Finiti ad Infinitum nulla est proportio, there is no proportion betweene that which is finite and that which is infinite. Therefore our choicest fruits, our best workes being defectiue in euery one of these fiue particulars which ought necessarily to concurre for the making of them meritorious, it is strange there should liue in this great light of the Gospell any that dare attempt such a worke of darkenesse as to stampe mans workes with the Character of Merit. Sure I am in the Word of God we cannot so much as finde the Word Merit Indeed God doth very frequently in the Sacred Scripture promise a reward to the godly, |
