Love to Christ, necessary to escape the curse at his coming

If you be not in Christ, can you bring forth any Fruit pleasing unto God? Joh. 15.4. — As the branch cannot bear fruit of it self, except it abide in the vine, no more can ye, except ye abide in me: And if you bring forth no fruit, shall you not be cast into the fire? Joh. 15.6. If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered, and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burnt: And are you such as shall be cast into the fire, and flames of Hell, and are you not in a cursed, dangerous, and miserable Condition? Can a bad Tree bring forth good Fruit? and if it do not, is it not for the fire? Mat. 3.10. And now also the axe is laid to the root of the trees; therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit, is hewen down, and cast into the ⟨p. 46⟩fire. Hath not the rain of heavenly Doctrine dropped upon you, and yet do you bring forth any thing but Briars and Thorns, when you have no love to Christ? and are you not then rejected, and your end to be burned? and is then the Curse far from you? Heb. 6.7. The earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God; 8. But that which beareth thorns and briars, is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing, whose end is to be burned: and when you come to that end, will you not then acknowledge your selves to be Anathema?
