To go to hell with so much of heaven, Oh what a hell is that! Heb. 10.26, 27. For if we sin wilfully, after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sin. But a certain fearful looking for of judg•ment, &c. 2 Pet 2.20, 21, 22. For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world, through the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them then the beginning; for it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, then after they have ⟨p. 67⟩known to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them, &c.
