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.

First▪ because God hath said we shall not, Heb. 10. 25. See that ye refuse not him that speaketh, for if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth (that was Moses), much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from Heaven.
2. Because he hath not only said, they shall not, but also hath bound it with an oath, saying, So I sware in my wrath, they shall not enter into my rest, Heb. 3. 11. To whom did he swear that they should not enter into his rest? Answer, To them that believed not, So we see, they could not enter in, because of unbelief, verse 18, 19.
