The application of redemption

As sometimes Moses to Israel, Deut. 30. 17, 18. But if thine heart turn away that thou wilt not hear, I denounce unto thee this day, thou shalt surely perish; and if any man when he hears these words, shall bless himself in his heart, saying, I shall have peace though I ad drunkenness to thirst, the wrath of the Lord will smoke against that man, and he will cut him off, &c. This Charge and awful Command of Conscience makes the soul shy of stirring out unto such ungodly courses, makes the corruptions skulk in as it were, so that they dare not show their heads: this is the roaring of the Lyon, that makes all tremble and¹ be at a stand, the direful warnings and threatenings §3that Conscience sets up and gives in, out of the Authority and sovereignty of the Truth, which is dreadful in presenting the displeasure of the Lord; so that the sinner withdraws himself from such courses, companies, practises, unto which he was addicted, and had formerly bestowed himself.
