Heard Him Often Say that Holiness and Happiness were the Same
I heard him often say that holiness and happiness were the same, and he quoted a mighty place of scripture?All her ways are pleasantness and her paths are peace. But he delighted in giving the reason of scripture, and therefore said, That holiness and wisdom in effect were one: for no man could be wise that knew excellent things without doing them. Now to do their is holiness and to do them wisdom. No man therefore can be further miserable than he severeth from the ways of holiness and wisdom.
