In the Christian Church He hath given us means to be better to-day than yesterday, and to-morrow than to-day. That grace which God offers us in the Church does not only fill that capacity which we have; but gives us a greater capacity than we had: and it is an abuse of God's grace not to improve it, or not to procure such further grace as that present grace makes us capable of.
John Donne: Sermons.
