Verse 7
Galatians 6:7. Be not deceived;— The Apostle here, with great propriety and force, exposes the evasions that some would make use of to excuse themselves from acts of liberality; by which, however they might impose on others, they would egregiously deceive themselves, as every circumstance lies open to an all seeing God, and they assuredly should reap according as they sowed; (a metaphor which he employs elsewhere to excite to liberality, 2 Corinthians 9:6.) the thought whereof must silence every vain pretence that may be brought against so plain a duty, and is most admirably suited to regulate and heighten the proportion, as well as to enforce the practice of it.
Be the first to react on this!
