Visible Grace
Acts 11:23
Who, when he came, and had seen the grace of God, was glad, and exhorted them all…


Provide things honest in the sight of all men. Not only be honest, but let your honesty be seen. "A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid." "Show forth the praises of Him who hath called you." As Bengel remarks in connection with our text: "A gem should not merely be a gem; it should be properly set in a ring, that its splendour may meet the eye."
