A graine of musterd-seede Quotes

“Christian, show yourself to be a member of Christ and a servant of God, not only in the general calling of a Christian, but also in the particular calling in which you are placed. It is not enough for a magistrate to be a Christian man, but he must also be a Christian magistrate. It is not enough for a master of a family to be a Christian man or a Christian in the church, but he must also be a Christian in his family and in the trade which he follows daily. Not everyone who is a common hearer of the Word and a frequenter of the Lord’s Table is therefore a good Christian, unless his conversation in his private house and in his private affairs and dealings be suitable. There is a man to be seen what he is.”
