Author Description

Excerpt from Thy Poor Brother: Letters to a Friend on Helping the Poor He that hath mercy on the poor, happy is he; and It is more blessed to give than to receive. Some of these promises of compensation, appear so lavishly rich, that were the terms of the agree ment between man and man, we might be inclined to suspect bribery; but our God is a rich rewarder of those, who walk in His ways and keep His commandments.
