Excerpt from The Portrait of Saint Paul, or the True Model for Christians and Pastors: Translated From a French Manuscript
It should be laid down as an incontrovertible truth, that the same zeal which was manifested by St Paul, for the glory of god, and the same Charity, that be displayed, as an apostle, in the very extensive scene of his labours, a minister is called toe: ercise,as a pastor,in his parish, and a private person, father of afamily,in his own house. Nay, even every woman, in propor. Tion to her capacity, and as the other duties of her station per mit, should feel the same ardenr to promote the salvation of her children and domestics, as St. Paul once discovered to pro mote that of the ancient Jews and Gentiles. Observe in the harvest-field, how it fares with the labourers, when they are threatencd with an immtuous shower. All do not bind and bear the weighty sheaves. Every one is occupied according to their rank, their strength, their age, and their sex; and all are in action, even to the little gleaners. The true church resembles this field. The faithful of every rank, age, and sex. Have but one heart and one mind. According to their state, and the degree of their faith, all are animated to labour is the cause of god, and all are endeavouring to save either can. Munities, families, or individuals, from the wrath to come.
