First, It confutes that Popish principle, which magnifies voluntary poverty. It is beside my purpose here, to insist upon the Juggle and the Cheat which there is commonly in this; (for under the Veil, and Cloak of pretended Mortification to the World, they not onely subsist by Idleness, but many times raise unseen Estates,) nor does it concern me now to lay open the absurd contradiction which there is in this, to some of their other receiv'd opinions; (as particularly, that outward grandeur and prosperity is a mark of the true Church ) but upon this occasion which the Text fairly gives, I would only intimate how false and unagreeable it is to the Scripture-account. |
