All our pieces of Gold are but current to the grave; none of them will pass in the future world. Therefore as merchants when they travel make over their monies here, to receive them by bills of exchange in another country; let us do good with our goods while we live, that when we die, by a blessed bill of exchange, we may receive them again in the Kingdom of Heaven (Luke 16:9). To part with what we cannot keep, that we may get that which we cannot lose, is a good bargain. Wealth can do us no good, unless it help us towards heaven.
—Thomas Adams
