God hath several sorts of saints which he exerciseth (as several members of the body or several vessels in an house) most to that end to which they are appointed, his Boanerges's and his Barnabas, his John and his Paul, every one in their own place according to the gift and grace received (yea the same saint is sometimes in the exercise of one grace, at another time in the exercise of another grace, sometime most in self-abasing, at other times rejoicing in Christ Jesus, sometime in hope at other times in fear.) Now it may be his zeal doth best for him, and thy moderation for thee; his cheerfulness best for him, and thy sadness best for thee: that which it may be is an occasion of sin to thee, is none to him, and that which would be an occasion of sin to him, is none to thee; judge not therefore another by thy self, nor think that every one must be cast ⟨p. 152⟩in thy mould.
God hath severall sorts of saints which he exerciseth (as severall members of the body or severall vessels in an house) most to that end to which they are appointed, his Beanerges's and his Barnabas, his Iohn and his Paul, every one in their owne place according to the gift and grace received (yea the same saint is sometimes in the exercise of one grace, at another time in the exercise of another grace, sometime most in selfe-abasing, at other times rejoycing in Christ Jesus, sometime in hope at other times in feare.) Now it may be his zeale doth best for him, and thy moderation for thee; his cheerfulnesse best for him, and thy sadnes best for thee: that which it may be is an occasion of sin to thee, is none to him, and that which would be an occasion of sin to him, is none to thee; judge not therefore another by thy selfe, nor thinke that every one must be cast ⟨p. 152⟩in thy mould.
