4. In a word, if you have received Christ, you have fallen out with sin, subjected pleasures, profits and honours to him; and you have received h•s Spirit, and this hath made you new, and maintains the way within you against the flesh, &c. If this be not thy case, Oh that thou knewest what a case thou art in! For then, 1. What the better art thou for all his blood shed as yet, if thou wert this day to dye? What would Christs blood do to the cleansing and saving of thy soul? 2. How canst thou look thy sins in the face, and think on what thou hast done, and art! How canst thou look inward into thy defiled heart, and not tremble, when thou hast no more shelter from the wrath of God? 3. How canst thou look God in the face who is a hater of sin? How canst thou read his Attributes, think on his threatenings? 4. How canst thou think to have any Duty accepted, and Prayer heard, or rewarded, &c. 5. How canst thou think on the Day of Judgment, on the time when thou must receive thy final sentence, if thou hast not received Christ? Oh what a thing is a Christless heart! &c.
