Sighs from hell, or, The groans of a damned soul discovering from the 16th of Luke the lamentable state of the damned : and may fitly serve as a warning-word to sinners, both old and young, by faith in Jesus Christ, to avoid the same place of torment : with a discovery of the usefulness of the Scriptures as our safe conduct for avoiding the torments of hell / by John Bunyan.

Remember, that thou hadst thy good things, and Lazarus evil things.

These words do not onely hold forth the misery of the Wicked in this Life, but also great consolation to the Saints, where he saith, And Lazarus evil things; That is, Lazarus had his Evil Things in his Life-time, or when he was in the World.
From whence observe,
1. That the Life of the Saints, so long as they are in this World, is attended with many Evils or Afflictions, which may be discovered to be of divers Natures, as saith the Scripture. Many are the troubles of the Righteous, but the Lord delivereth him out of all.
