If subordinated to religion, and pursued for God, we repeat it, that the pleasures of sense may be possessed, and the duties of every station discharged : nay more, we declare that no man can be reli- gious without endeavouring to fulfil the tlu- ties of his calling, whether they be com- mercial or military, philosophical or reli- gious. But the evil incident to these things consists in making them the great end of life ; in suffering them to draw away our hearts from God, or to occupy that pla...ce in our affections which is due to God alone* It is in this view that we are to be under- stood as denominating the pursuit of these things '^evil, *" and we doubt not but that the consciences of all, attest the truth of our statement, and accede fully to that apostolic, that incontrovertible position, that to '* love and serve the creature more than the Crea- tor'' is idolatry.
We have digressed a little, for the pur- pose of being more clearly understood. Let us now return to our observation; that the 189 creature, which is suffered to rival God in our affections, whatever it may be, is only ^' a broken cistern.
