Difference between good and bad Men.
I SEE the wicked have their heaven here, and their hell hereafter: and on the contrary, good men have their hell here, and their heaven hereafter. Dives had his good things in this life, and Lazarus evil: there Lazarus is comforted, and Dives tormented. I will not therefore envy the prosperity of the wicked, nor be offended in the affliction of the righteous, seeing the one is drawn in pomp to hell, while the other swims in tears to heaven. WHEN that man presented you with a cup of water, and you said, "Thank you, sir," you did not do wrong. You believe that to express gratitude is not amiss. God gives you many cups of water, and tables covered with food. The Bible orders you to say, "I thank thee."—Nelson.
