of this discourse Let the Account of what has been done in its publick Hospitals only this last Year serve as a short but sufficient Evidence whereby to judge with how little reason we are tax'd with a decay of Charity amongst us A True report c. Such was the Effect of the last Years Piety And how much of all this has been wholly Established since the Reformation what vast additions have been made to what was indeed begun before how faithfully these great Trusts have been and are still administred and kept up not withstanding the mighty losses they have sustain'd and the other frequent misfortunes under which they have fallen is well known to most of you in this Assembly Could I to all this Add the summ of what in such a doubtful and discouraging Year as this according to common Estimate has been has nevertheless been expended within this One City in more private Acts of Mercy What liberality has been shown in Collections twice made for our Exiled Brethren after two before gather'd for our Neighbours of the French Churches on the same occasion Not to mention all other Occurrences from which no Day scarce any Hour is exempted We should then have enough not only to silence but to shame the Cavils of our Enemies and to engage us to bless God who has in some measure opened our Hearts to the Cries of the Poor and not suffer'd them in vain to call upon us But yet since this is the Reproach they would now endeavour to tix upon us let us be as ready by our Practice to confute this as we have been with good success by our Arguments to answer all their other Objections against us Let us shew them that tho' our Religion will neither allow us to boast of our Good Works to Men nor to pretend to Merit by them of God yet it teaches us to he no less nay in truth to be much more studious than themselves in the performance of them And the more to engage us to this Care let us often represent to our selves the Great Motive which St. Paul has here set before us to stir us up to a free and ready Discharge of this Great Duty Let us consider that the Time is coming when we must give a strict account of our selves and of all the Abilities and Opportunities that we have had of Doing Good and what Vse we have made of them That the Enquiry then will not so much be what our Opinions or Persuasions were in such or such controverted Points of Christianity To what Church we have belong'd or How well we have determined the many Questions that so fatally distract and divide mens minds in matters of Religion But rather How well we have lived How charitable we have been to those who have differ'd from us and in particular How kind and bountiful to the Poor and Needy This is what our Saviour assures us in the Great Account which he has left us of the day of Judgment And with which as being the noblest Argument that ever was or could have been invented for the enforcing of this duty and a short Summary of all that I have here been laying before you to excite you to it I shall conclude this whole Discourse When the Son of Man shall come in his Glory and all the Holy Angels with him then shall he sit upon the Throne of his Glory And before him shall be gathered all Nations and he shall separate them One from Another as a Shepherd divideth his Sheep from the Goats And he shall set the Sheep on his right-hand and the Goats on his left Then shall be say unto them on his right-hand Come ye Blessed of my Father inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foudation of the World FOR I was an Hungred and ye gave me Meat I was Thirsty and ye gave me Drink I was a Stranger and ye took me in Naked and ye cloathed me I was Sick and ye visited me I was in Prison and ye came unto me Then shall the Righteous answer him saying LORD when saw we thee an Hungred and fed thee or Thirsty and gave thee Drink When saw we thee a Stranger and took thee in or Naked and cloathed thee Or when saw we thee Sick or in Prison and came unto thee And the King shall answer and say unto them Verily I say unto you inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my Brethren ye have done it unto me Then shall he also say unto them on the Left-hand Depart from me ye Cursed into everlasting Fire prepared for the Devil and his Angels FOR I was an Hungred and ye gave me no Meat I was Thirsty and ye gave me no Drink I was a Stranger and ye took me not in Naked and ye cloathed me not Sick and in Prison and ye visited me not Then shall they also answer him saying LORD when saw we thee an Hungred or a-thirst or a Stranger or Naked or Sick or in Prison and did not minister unto thee Then shall he answer them saying Verily I say unto you inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these ye did it not to me And these shall go away into Everlasting Punishment but the Righteous into Life Eternal FINIS BOOKS publish'd by the Reverend Dr. Wake And Printed for Ric.
