(wisd. Oh! How deplorable that so many profess Christ with the lips, but yet'by their works deny both him and his doctrine, whence, in the eyes of God, they are not better than the manifest scorner of his word; although comforting themselves, and being comforted by their u'nl' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
