2. The Gospel it self which is preached to you is a Testimony or Witness for God, for or against every one that hears it, John 12. 48. He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath ⟨p. 7⟩one that judgeth him; the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day. And this is the sense of Christs words, Matth. 24. 14. And this Gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the World, for a Witness to all Nations, and then shall the end come. Ah Lord, what a solemn record is here! Every Sermon you hear, yea, every reproof, persuasion and conviction is a Witness for God to cast and condemn every Soul in Judgement, that complies not obediently with the calls of the Gospel: So many Sermons, so many Witnesses.
