The apostle in his first Epistle to Timothy: “But if any take not care of his own, and especially of those of his own household, he denies the faith, and is worse than an infidel.”[4535] Of this same thing in Isaiah: “If thou shalt see the naked, clothe him; and despise not those who are of the household of thine own seed.”[4536] Of which members of the household it is said in the Gospel: “If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much rather them of his household!”[4537]
In the first to Timothy: “Against an elder receive not an accusation.”[4538]
In the first Epistle of Paul to Timothy: “Rebuke them that sin in the presence of all, that others also may be afraid.”[4539]
To Titus: “A man that is an heretic, after one rebuke avoid; knowing that one of such sort is perverted, and sinneth, and is by his own self condemned.”[4540] Of this same thing in the Epistle of John: “They went out from among us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would doubtless have remained with us.”[4541] Also in the second to Timothy: “Their word doth creep as a canker.”[4542]
In the Epistle of John: “If our heart blame us not, we have confidence towards God; and whatever we ask, we shall receive from Him.”[4543] Also in the Gospel according to Matthew: “Blessed are they of a pure heart, for they shall see God.”[4544] Also in the twenty-third Psalm: “Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in His holy place? The innocent in hands and of a pure heart.”[4545]
