And this is a truth, which many now a days have need to be admonished of, not only Papists, but also Protestants, who make profession of the Name and Faith of Christ, but ⟨p. 395⟩yet notwithstanding, they so behave themselves as if they thought an-outside show of Religion were sufficient, and as if they did not look for Judgment to come, they are so void of care to walk worthy of that Holy profession, giving themselves up against their Conscience to all uncleanness with greediness, whereby they both greatly provoke the wrath of 1God, and put themselves in dreadful danger of the loss of Eternal Salvation. Against such Men as run on into open wickedness, without measure or remorse, we may by better consequence draw this inference.
