Gospel reconciliation, or, Christ's trumpet of peace to the world

Thus there was a most blessed union, and a wonderful delight between God and Man at first; but the truth is, this union was soon broken, and man in a small time, did come to be (next to the Devils) the most deadly enemy that God had, though there was a most blessed union between God and man at first; so that Adam could walk, and Converse with God, as he did for a while; yet Adam sins against God and turns a most desperate enemy against God; even he himself, and all his posterity; therefore you shall observe in the story where the fall of man is set forth; that as soon as Adam had sinned, the voice of God which he did but hear in the Garden, became terrible to him, and he presently seeks to hide himself; he was Conscious to himself that h• had made God his enemy and he looks upon God as his enemy, and so flies from him, as from his enemy; O what a change was here of mans condition! what a sad thing was this; that God who had no Creature in all the world to know him, and fear him, and serve him, and love him, and in whom he could delight, and have Communion, but only man, and that that man should presently turn rebel, and enemy unto God; such an enemy as God looks upon him, as one having a most opposite nature unto him; and man looks upon God as an enemy to him, and flies from him as from an enemy; so that God was fain as it were to call after him; Adam where art thou? This is the woeful fruit of sin, even of the first sin, of the fall of our first Parents; and since the world began, since that very time, this man, this Adam hath begotten none but enemies unto God; and if there be any truth in the word of God, this is certain, That there was never any Child of Adam but was born an ⟨p. 8⟩enemy unto God; the Scripture is as Clear in this, as in any thing; I might name abundance of texts for it, which for brevity sake I shall omit. Rom. 5.10. When we were enemies, we were Reconciled unto God: Certainly if any men in the world were not enemies unto God, they are those that are Reconciled afterward; but the Apostle speaks of himself and of all other Christians that are Reconciled unto God; he saith, that they were enemies unto him: this may be said of every man child in the world; that he is an enemy unto God; and such enemies are every one of us unto God naturally, as that there is an antipathy between our hearts and him; and the enmity of antipathy is the greatest;
