The way to true happiness in a serious treatise /

IV. The guilt of all thy sins lies like a mountain upon thee. Poor soul! Thou feelest it not, but this is that which seals thy misery upon thee. While unconverted, none of thy sins are blotted out: Act. 3. 19. they are all upon the score against thee. Regeneration and remission are never separated: the unsanctified are unquestionably unjustified, and unpardoned. 1 Cor. 6. 11. • Pet. 1. 2. Heb. 9. 14. Beloved, it's a fearful thing to be in debt, but above all in Gods debt: for there is no arrest so formidable as his, no prison so horrible as his. Look upon an enlightened ⟨p. 123⟩sinner, who feels the weight of his own guilt, and oh how frightful are his looks, how fearful are his complaints! His comforts are turned into wormwood, and his moisture into drought, and his sleep departeth from his eyes. He is a terror to himself and all that are about him, and is ready to envy the very stones that lie in the street, because they are senseless, and feel not his misery; and wishes he had been a dog, or a toad, or serpent rather than a man, because then death had put an end to his misery, whereas now it will be but the beginning of that which will know no ending.
