Thirdly, Wicked men in their prosperity and riches, what 1they get, they attribute to themselves. I am become rich, and I have found substance, I have got: They do not look up to God, indeed they dare not; those that get by a sinful way, they dare not acknowledge God in it: and this is the evil of getting any thing in a way of sin, that a man cannot come to God and say, Lord, I bless thee that thou ⟨p. 325⟩hast given me this; no, his Conscience would fly in his face▪ wicked men attribute all to themselves: This is a very wicked and vile thing, Deut. 6. 12. Beware, lest thou forget the Lord thy God, speaking of their having Houses, 2and Lands, Beware, lest thou forget the Lord thy God, and only look at thy self, & attribute all to thy self, that's the meaning.
