Hear O ye Drunkards, how long will ye be drunken? put away your wine. 1 Sam. 1. 14. Though you have rolled in the vomit of your sin, take the vomit of repentance, and heartily disgorge your beloved lusts, and the Lord will receive you. 2 Cor. 6. 17. Give up your selves unto Christ, to live soberly, righteously, and godly; embrace his righteousness; accept his government; and though you have been swine, he will wash you. Rev. 3. 6.
Hear O ye loose companions, whose delight is in vain and wicked society, to sport away your time in carnal mirth and jollity with them; come in at wisdoms call, and choose her, and her ways, and forsake the foolish, and you shall live. Prov. 9. 5, 6.
Hear O ye scorners, hear the word of the Lord. Though you have made a sport at godliness, and the professors thereof; though you have made a scorn of Christ, and of his ways; yet, even to you doth he call, to gather you under the wings of his mercy. Prov. 1. 22, 23. In a word, though you should be found among the worst of that black roll, 1 Cor. 6. 9, 10. yet, upon your through Conversion, you shall washed, be you shall be justified, you shall be sanctified, in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the spirit of our God, ver. 11.
