Two treatises tending to awaken secure sinners viz., 1. The terror of the day…

when God is against you, whose side would you have us be of? we must be either against God or you; and can you think that we should be for any one against our Maker and Redeemer? we must either condemn the Sentence of Jesus Christ or condemn you: and is not there more reason to condemn you than him? Can we have any Mercy on you, when he that made you will not save you, and he that formed you will ⟨p. 22⟩show you no Mercy? Isa. 27. 11. yea when he that died for you will condemn you, shall we be more merciful than God? But alas! if we should be so foolish and unjust, what good would it do you? If we would be False-witnesses and partial Judges, it would not save you; we are not justified if we absolve our selves, 1 Cor. 4. 4. how unable then shall we be against God's Sentence to justify you? If all the World should say you were holy and penitent, when God knows you were unholy and impenitent, it will do you no good. You pray every Day that his Will may be done, and it will be done: It will be done upon you, because it was not done by you. What would you have us say, if God ask us, Did you tell this Sinner of the need of Christ, of the Glory of the World to come, and the Vanity of this? Should we lie and say we did not? What should we say if he ask us, Did not you tell them the Misery of their natural State, and what would become of them if they were not made new? Would you have us lie to God, and say we did not? Why if we did not, your Blood will be required at our hands, Ezek. 33. 6. and 3. 18. and would you have us bring your Blood upon our own Heads by a •ie? yea, and to do you no good, when we know that Lies will not prevail with God? No, no, Sinners; we must unavoidably testify to the Confusion of your Faces; if God ask us, we must bear Witness against you and say, Lord, we did what we could according to our weak Abilities to reclaim them: indeed our own Thoughts of everlasting Things were so low, and our Hearts so dull, that we must confess we did not follow them so close, nor speak so earnestly as we should have done: we did not cry so loud, or lift up our Voice as a Trumpet to awaken them (
