1 John3:17
17 But whoso hath this worlds good, and seeth his brother hath need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from nim how dwelleth the love of God in him?
I. e. If the Love of God in us should make us lay down our Lives for the Brethren, and we be not willing in their Necessity and our own Ability, to relieve them, how plain is the Case, that it is not in us?
