If God remembered this mercy, of calling them out of Egypt so many years before as an aggravation of their sin, ⟨p. 15⟩how much more may the Lord make that an aggravation of our sin that called us of late out of that Egypt that we 1were in? Many ways I might show you that we were under a great, if not a greater bondage than the Israelites were under in Egypt. And there hath been as out stretched an arm (though not so obvious to sense) in calling of us out, as in calling of them out of Egypt; now let not this be an aggravation of our sin, the sound of our cries under the yoke of our bondage is not yet out of our ears, and the very sores of our shoulders through their yokes are not yet throughly healed, and therefore if we now before the sound be out of our ears and our sores be healed, yet grow to be wanton, foolish, vain proud, cruel, oppressing one another, and abusing of our liberty, Oh! our sin must needs be accounted exceeding great before God.
If God remembred this mercy, of calling them out of Egypt so many years before as an aggravation of their sin, ⟨p. 15⟩how much more may the Lord make that an aggravation of our sin that called us of late out of that Egypt that we 1were in? Many waies I might shew you that we were under a great, if not a greater bondage than the Israelites were under in Egypt. And there hath been as out stretched an arm (though not so obvious to sence) in calling of us out, as in calling of them out of Egypt; now let not this be an aggravation of our sin, the sound of our cries under the yoke of our bondage is not yet out of our ears, and the very sores of our shoulders through their yokes are not yet throughly healed, and therefore if we now before the sound be out of our ears and our sores be healed, yet grow to be wanton, foolish, vain proud, cruel, oppressing one another, and abusing of our liberty, Oh! our sin must needs be accounted exceeding great before God.
