Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Secret Trials of the Christian Life
Eyes of men, and known to none but the soul and god. The reality of our religion can indeed be tested, in some measure, by its visible fruits. The good works of some are manifest even before the day of Divine reward and of final separation. Though we cannot be certain about the sincerity of a man's words, or the expression of a man's face, yet after watching these for many years we can feel almost sure that such a one is utterly purposed that his mouth should not offend, almost sure that such a one is, as his countenance declares, bent upon serious things, given to soberness and prayer and courtesy. Though we cannot accurately describe the inner self.
