And this is a main point indeed, that sinful people should charge themselves with all the evil that doth befall 1them, they destroy themselves, Oh! this it is that will be the aggravation of mens judgments another day, that they are the cause of all the evils they suffer. You may think to put it off to God and say, Oh how dreadful is Gods Justice! but God knows how to put off all upon your selves, and the destruction of sinners will appear to be from themselves, and God will clear it up to all the World, before Men and Angels, and will clear it up unto their Consciences: The damned in Hell shall not be able to speak against Gods Justice at all, but they shall be forced to charge themselves with all the evil that is upon them: Oh! it was through this wretched, and vile, wicked heart of mine, God was not wanting to me in any means of good, but I had a rebellious heart, and I have brought all this evil upon my self, I have destroyed my self. O Israel, thou hast destroyed thy self.
