Yea, and the least sin, when God sets it on, will do all this.
4. Look upon sin in Adam; and there see the greatness of it. That one sin of Adam, hath brought All the Miseries, Sickness, Death, &c. upon All his Posterity since that time.
It hath been the Damnation of thousands of millions of men; and still it runs on. Gods justice is still unsatisfied; if it were, there would be a stop: We should Dye no more, Be sick no more, &c.
Oh! Here you may see sin; sin in its Extensiveness.
5. Look upon sin in Christ: See there what Humblings, what Breakings, what Woundings, what Piercings, what Wrath it brought upon Christ himself. It was that, which mingled that Bitter Cup, with such woeful ingredients; which, had we but fipt of it, when it was so tempered, would have laid our souls under more wrath, than All the damned in Hell do suffer. Christ did Bear Pure Justice for sin.
