"^ Considering the period in which he wrote, and the fact that the Bible seems to have been almost his only text- book, his conclusions are remarkably consistent with those of modern students of sociology and comparative religion. The temptation is great to continue this line of exposition and quotation, but I must bring it to a close with one * Commentary Mss. , p. 90. 9* 100 SAMUELL GORTON or two additional passages further il- lustrative of the ethical quality of his thought. All virtue, he ...taught, even the goodness of God, consists wdiolly in the service of others. " The goodnesse of God's nature is such, " he says, '' that it cannot subsiste or bee without com- municating it selfe with another, other- wise his goodnesse should bee uselesse, which can not bee admitted for one moment of time, for there is an impossi- bility thereof; The naturall temporary or tipicall goodnesse of any creature is uselesse unlesse it bee communicated with another; God never made any creature in heaven or in earth simply for it selfe, but for the use of another; how infinitely more is this true of God, who hath made him selfe in Christ to bee the goodnesse of the world.
