THE FAMILY IN HEAVEN AND EARTH

"The whole family in heaven, and earth." The difference betwixt us

and them is, not that we are really two, but one body in Christ, in

divers places. True, we are below stairs, and they above; they in

their holiday, and we in our working-day clothes; they in harbor,

but we in the storm; they at rest, but we in the wilderness; they

singing, as crowned with joy, we crying, as crowned with thorns. But

we are all of one house, one family, and are all the children of one

Father.
