The APPLICATION.
Use 1. We may hence learn what to judge of the Heathen, who have not heard of Christ. I shall not dispute whether any of them may be saved or not; yet this I can say, that their Damnation will be more tolerable than of many others. Those that sinned without the Law, shall have more favourable Judgment than those that sinned under the Law; and those that detained only natural Truth in unrighteousness, as the Heathen,1 shall fare better than those that so detained Truth supernatural.
