marriage supper of the Lamb, shall be furnished from the 

 contributions of every generation ; all that any man, in 

 any age, has been enabled to accomplish in works of 

 righteousness and faith, every spiritual battle won, every 

 convert made, shall IDC mingled in that vast store of 

 happiness, of which the glorified Church shall everlastingly 

 partake. * Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord ; 

 yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours ; 

 and their works do follow them.' They ( rest from their 

 labours,' in that, as soon as they come to land, they see a 

 * fire of coals there, and fish laid thereon and bread : '- 

 'their works do follow them,' in that they are there 

 bidden to bring of the fish which they have caught. Oh 

 that we may all so labour during life, that hereafter, when 

 judged, as we must be, by our works, there may be found, 

 not indeed what can never be, a claim to the happiness 

 of heaven, but an evidence of our having loved the Lord 

 Jesus in sincerity and truth. Amen."
