Excerpt from Sermons by Richard Price and Joseph Priestley
These words express one of the most important of all maxims. They tell us, that in the practice of virtue there is safety. Much higher praise may be bestowed upon it. We may fay that with it are connected peace, honour, dignity, the favour of God, happiness now, and eternal happiness hereafter: And we have reason enough to think this true. But whether true or not, it is at least true, that there is safety in it.
Christianity informs us, that good men will be raised from death to enjoy a glorious immortality, through that Saviour of the world who tailed death for every man. But let the evidence for this be supposed precarious and unfatisfactory. - Let it be reckoned uncertain whether a virtuous course will terminate in such infinite blessings under the divine government as christians are taught to expect.
