Of several sorts of fear of God in the heart of the Children of men.
There is, I say, several sorts, or kinds of fear in the hearts of the Sons men, I mean besides that fear of God that is intended in the text, and that accompanieth Eternal Life.
I shall hear make mention of three of them.
1. There is a fear of God that flows, even from the light of nature.
2. There is a fear of God that flows from some of his dispensations to men which yet are neither universal, nor saving.
