281. A Minister living near to a Philosopher, did often persuade him to become a Christian; Oh but said the Philosopher, if I turn Christian, I must or may lose all for Christ: to whom, and to which the Minister replied, if you lose any thing for Christ, he will repay it an hundred fold: I but said the Philosopher, will you be bound for Christ, that if he do not pay me, you will? Yes, that I will said the Minister: So the Philosopher became a Christian, and the Minister entered into bond, and became a surety for the Surety of the Covenant. When this new-Christian-Philosopher was on his sick and death-bed, he held this bond in his hand, and sent for the Minister, to whom he gave up the bond, saying, Christ hath paid all, there's nothing for you to pay, take your ⟨p. 215⟩bond. Surely though a man should be a loser for Christ, he shall be no loser by Christ, he will make amends for all, Matthew 19.21.
