From this Text thus explained, Doct. this Doctrine clearly resulteth. That whatsoever man hath not sincere love to the Lord Jesus Christ, is in a deplorable condition, and shall be accursed when the Lord comes. For his Sin is great, his Mind is blind, his Will perverse, his Heart is hard and carnal, his Affections corrupt, and base and vile, and his Soul and Body shall then be doomed down to blackness of darkness, to extremity, and eternity of misery, to pains and punishment, that no Tongue can express, no Heart conceive, no Pen can write, how great, how terrible, how intolerable it will be found to be.
