1So if you regard what belongeth to them, what is in them, the inheritance they shall have, or what cometh from a christian, that is, Brother of Christ, he is an excellent person, more excellent then his Neighbour: there is no man in the world, never so great, but is a base person in comparison of a christian. What will all be ere long? if a man be not in Christ, these things will add to our vexation. It will be a misery to have had happiness, the greater will be the misery, when they must be parted withal. And therefore raise your hearts to consider of the excellent condition of a christian, when he is once the Brother of Christ.
