If people say, "We do no harm to any body," and therefore our souls shall not perish, it is not the fact which is here alleged: the fact is quite the other way. If God should say, which however he does not, Whosoever can prove that he has done no injury to his fellow-creatures, he shall have everlasting life, there is not a man in the whole world who could get to heaven upon these terms: and such as are most confident that they could, are wont to be at least as far off as any. Let every man consult his own conscience honestly, and he will see this for himself: he will find that he has a great deal of harm which he has done to answer for.
