8. Give unto the Lord glory due unto his name. However much of zealous
homage we may offer to him, we cannot give him more than his due. If we cannot
bring in the full revenue which he justly claims, at least let us not fail from
want of honest endeavor. Bring an offering, and come into his courts.
Atonement for sin having been made, it only remains to bring thank-offerings,
and let not these be forgotten. When assembling for public worship we should
make a point of bringing with us a contribution to his cause, according to that
ancient word, “None of you shall appear
before me empty.” The time will come when
from all ranks and all nations the Lord will receive gifts when they gather
together for his worship.
