"The Epistles in the New Testament have all of them a particular reference to the condition and usages of the Christian world at the time they were written."
Time
"Happiness does not consist in self-love."
Happiness
"The object of self-love is expressed in the term self; and every appetite of sense, and every particular affection of the heart, are equally interested or disinterested, because the objects of them all are equally self or somewhat else."
Heart
"Self-love then does not constitute THIS or THAT to be our interest or good; but, our interest or good being constituted by nature and supposed, self-love only puts us upon obtaining and securing it."
Nature
"However, without considering this connection, there is no doubt but that more good than evil, more delight than sorrow, arises from compassion itself; there being so many things which balance the sorrow of it."
Balance
"God Almighty is, to be sure, unmoved by passion or appetite, unchanged by affection; but then it is to be added that He neither sees nor hears nor perceives things by any senses like ours; but in a manner infinitely more perfect."
God
"Pain and sorrow and misery have a right to our assistance: compassion puts us in mind of the debt, and that we owe it to ourselves as well as to the distressed."
Compassion
"Consequently it will often happen there will be a desire of particular objects, in cases where they cannot be obtained without manifest injury to others."
Desire
"For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another."
Being
"People might love themselves with the most entire and unbounded affection, and yet be extremely miserable."
Love
