Now Christians, where is your faith? O methinks your sails should be up. Methinks you should be triumphing, though you are here in the world. As Paul, Who is he that condemns? it is Christ that died. Why? what objections can be made? what can unbelief say, that cannot be answered here in the death of Christ? shall I muster up all its force, & tell you what the death of Christ doth speak to it? give me leave to touch upon some of them.
First, methinks I hear unbelief objecting from the terribleness of Gods threatenings. O says the soul, my heart melteth within me, while I hear the wrath of God threatened against sin, methinks I come lately from Mount Sinai, where I heard the Law given with the Trumpet, & a shout, and a curse pronounced upon all that kept not the words of this Law. O how can my soul bear up against all these curses?
