I Pass By That It

Incredulity Is Not Wisdom, But The Worst Kind Of Folly. It Is Folly, Because It Causes Ignorance And Mistake, With All The Consequents Of These; And It Is Very Bad, As Being Accompanied With Disingenuity, Obstinacy, Rudeness, Uncharitableness, And The Like Bad Dispositions; From Which Credulity Itself, The Other Extreme Sort Of Folly, Is Exempt.

It Is A Fair Adornment Of A Man And A Great Convenience Both To Himself And To All Those With Whom He Converses And Deals, To Act Uprightly, Uniformly, And Consistently. The Practice Of Piety Frees A Man From Interior Distraction And From Irresolution In His Mind, From Duplicity Or Inconstancy In His Character, And From Confusion In His Proceedings, And Consequently Securing For Others Freedom From Deception And Disappointment In Their Transactions With Him.

That In Affairs Of Very Considerable Importance Men Should Deal With One Another With Satisfaction Of Mind, And Mutual Confidence, They Must Receive Competent Assurances Concerning The Integrity, Fidelity, And Constancy Each Of Other.

In Defiance Of All The Tortue, Of All The Might, Of All The Malice Of The World, The Liberal Man Will Ever Be Rich; For God's Providence Is His Estate, God's Wisdom And Power Are His Defence, God's Love And Favor Are His Reward, And God's Word Is His Security.

Slander Is A Complication, A Comprisal And Sum Of All Wickedness.
