Saint Paul told the Jews at Antiochia, Seeing 1you put the word from you, and judge your selves unworthy of everlasting life▪ lo, we turn to the Gentiles, you shall be left in your filthiness.

Now what shall be done to these hard hearted & blind builders of the spiritual Jericho? Christ telleth us, it shall be easier in that day for them 1of Sodom, then for that city, which will not receive the Disciples. And again, Except ye 2believe that I am he, you shall die in your sins. The end of such is worse then the beginning. Al those plagues, & utter destruction came upon Jerusalem, because she knew not the time of her visitation, even the day of Gods mercy, as they were foretold by the Prophet Jeremiah, Behold, that which I have built will 3I destroy, & that which I have planted will I pluck up, even this whole land. So doth god plague one sin with another, & letteth them which are filthy grow in filthiness, because of the hardness of their hart which can not repent: whereby they heap unto themselves vengeance against the day of the Lords wrath: such are not worthy to see Jerusalem: therefore are they left to perish in Jericho.
