But what is righteousness?
But what is righteousnesse?
Righteousness is a very comprehensive word. The Philosopher tells us, it takes in all other virtues whatsoever, It is not a part of virtue, but all virtue.
Righteousnesse is a very comprehensive word. The Philosopher tels us, it takes in all other vertues whatsoever, It is not a part of vertue, but all vertue.
When righteousness is set as distinct from holiness and piety, then it is restrained to our dealings with men. Righteousness relates to men, and holiness to God, Luk. 1.75. Tit. 2.12. Gospel-grace teaches us to live soberly, in opposition to the intemperance of our bodies: righteously, in opposition to wrong in our actions, godly, in opposition to all impiety and profaneness of our minds.
