Thirdly, If Christ be no Prophet to teach us: He will be no Judge to acquit us. John 12. 48. He which rejecteth me, and receiveth ⟨p. 51⟩not my words, hath one that judgeth him; the words that I have spoken, the same shall judge us in the last day. And then like the wise Merchant, let us cast up our account, what it will profit us? If by denying to hear the voice of our Prophet Jesus, we gain the world, and in the mean season loose our precious souls. Knowing the Son of man shortly will come to judge the world: And then they which be ashamed of him, and his words, in this sinful and adulterous generation, of them will the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father▪ with all his holy Angels, Mark 8. 38.
