That perfect men are highly esteemed by God.
He prizes them greatly, he delighteth in them, They that honour me, I will honour, saith God; not only will I not cast them away, or abhor them, but I will honour them. God esteems and prizes them, though the world disesteem and reject them. There is many a soul which the world tramples under their feet, as the mire in the streets, which at that time God lays in his bosom. Christ embraceth some in his arms, whom the world, yea, whom their brethren hate, and smite with their tongues (Isa. 66.5.) Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my Names sake, said, Let the Lord be glorified (Not only the wicked world may do this, but brethren, even those that are brethren indeed in the main, may possibly hate a perfect man, and cast him out) your brethren that hated you, and cast you out for my Names sake; but the Lord at that time loved them, as it follows, But he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed.

There is many a soul which the world tramples under their feet, as the mire in the streets, which at that time God laies in his bosom. Christ imbraceth some in his arms, whom the world, yea, whom their brethren hate, and smite with their tongues (Isa. 66.5.) Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my Names sake, said, Let the Lord be glorified (Not only the wicked world may doe this, but brethren, even those that are brethren indeed in the main, may possibly hate a perfect man, and cast him out) your brethren that hated you, and cast you out for my Names sake; but the Lord at that time loved them, as it follows, But he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed.
