2. God sanctifies himself on men, when he inflicts spiritual punishment upon men, &c. viz. security, blindness, hardness; when men do not walk suitably to the light of Ordinances, he takes away ⟨p. 132⟩either light or sight, either ordinances or men's eyes, that seeing they might not see, — &c.

3. God doth sanctify himself on men who profane his Ordinance, when he doth inflict eternal punishments upon men; this see in the 1 Cor. 11.29. He who eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself; that which for the present makes him obnoxious to damnation, and shall in the end fix him in flames, lay him in hell, if he do not repent; yea, and the deepest cellars in hell, are for them who have lived in a profanation of Ordinances. And this in brief shall suffice to tell you what is meant by God's sanctifying himself upon men.
