An Humble Affectionate And Earnest Address To The Clergy

By William Law

Address 33: And what is well to be noted, everyone, however high in human literature

And what is well to be noted, everyone, however high in human literature, is but this very natural man, and can only have the goodness of a carnal secular religion, till as empty of all, as a new born child, the Spirit of God gets a full birth in him, and becomes the inspirer and doer of all that he wills, does, and aims at, in his whole course of religion.
