Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Charge Delivered to the Clergy of the Diocese of Salisbury
Our first, therefore, and chief enquiry regards our hidden life, whether this be indeed with Christ, and whether it be continually so more and more, as we advance in our trial. But this examination is to be made by each man for himself. The outward and visible marks and tokens of his ministry, though ordinarily they will in some measure correspond with the inward character, are yet no certain indications of its state: for the exercise of mere gifts may be made by God useful to others, though it is only when they are sanctified, and so made graces, that they can be truly blessed to ourselves.
