Puritan Wisdom

On I Peter 4:3 --

"Where God bestoweth means of Salvation, he expects fruit answerable; While a place lies wide and common like a Heath, there can be nothing expected but Bryars and Thorns; but if it be paled in, and digged and planted, then may fruit be expected therefrom: when a people want the means, especially the Gospel, what can be lookt for at their hands having it, their life and conversation must be answerable."

-- John Rogers 528.
