Excerpt from Discourses on Several Subjects, Vol. 2 The works of every man proceed fiom his faith; and such as his faith is such will his life be. If he believe that his happiness 18 to proceed from the riches, honours, or pleasures of the world, it will be the endeavour of his life to obtain them. If his faith be in the world to come, and he should believe that the favour of God is that alone which can give him peace of conscience in this world, and happiness in the next, his life will be according to his faith; it will be passed in obedience to God, that he may obtain his favour. Works, then, are the fruit of faith, the ef feets which it produceth, and cannot be necessary for the information of God, who knoweth the state of our hearts without them, and will accept us as our heart is towards him. But they are necessary for us and tor the world. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
