VIII. The Gospel it self bin death the sentence of eternal damnation upon thee, Mark 16. 16. If thou continuest in thine impenitent and unconverted estate, know that the Gospel denounceth a much sorer condemnation, than ever would have been for the transgression only of the first Covenant. Is it not a dreadful case to have the Gospel it self fill its mouth with threats, and thunder, and damnation? To have the Lord to roar from Mount Zion against thee? Joel 3. 16. Hear the terror of the Lord. He that believeth not shall be damned; except ye repent ye shall all perish, Luke 13. 3. This is the condemnation that light is come into the world, and men love darkness rather than light, John 3. 19. He that believeth not, the wrath of God abideth on him, Joh. 3. 36. If the word spoken by Angels was ⟨p. 108⟩steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompense of reward, how shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation? Heb. 2. 2, 3. He that despised Moses's Law died without mercy: Of how much sorer punishment shall he be thought worthy, that hath trampled under foot the Son of God? Heb. 10. 28, 29.
