Come, & Welcome, TO JESUS CHRIST. › The Second Use; a Use of Examination.
Modern spelling is a reading aid: the words are the author’s, only the spelling is modernized. Original shows the page as printed, with the transcription marks.
WE come now to a Use of Examination. Sinner, Thou hast heard of the Necessity of Coming to Christ; also, Of the Willingness of Christ, to Receive the Coming-Soul: Together, with the Benefit, that They by him shall have, that indeed come to Him. Put thy self now upon this Serious Enquiry; Am I, indeed, come to Jesus Christ?
Motives, plenty, I might here urge, to prevail with thee to a Conscientious Performance of this Duty: As,
1. Thou art in Sin, in the Flesh, in Death, in the Snare of the Devil, and under the Curse of the Law; if thou art not coming to Jesus Christ.
2. There is no way to be delivered from these, but by coming to Jesus Christ.
3. If thou comest, Jesus Christ will Receive thee, and will in no wise cast thee out.
