THE GREAT EVIL and DANGER OF LITTLE SINS, FROM
St. MATTH. V. 19. Whosoever therefore shall break any one of these least Commandments, and shall teach Men so, he shall be called the least in the Kingdom of Heaven.
Amongst those many Points that our Saviour handles in this his Sermon on the Mount, 1one is the Stability and Permanency of the Moral Law; the Obligation of which, he affirms to be as perpetual as Heaven ⟨p. 42⟩and Earth, Verse 18. Verily, verily, I say unto you, till Heaven and Earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the Law, till all be fulfilled. This Assertion Christ lays down in opposition to the common and corrupt Doctrine of the Scribes and Pharisees, the Jewish Teachers; who, by their Traditions sought to make void the Law of God Now, says Christ, unless they can remove the Earth, and roll up the Heavens, and carry the World without the World, it is but a vain Attempt; for it is decreed in Heaven, That till Heaven and Earth pass, not a tittle of the Law shall fail; but all shall be fulfilled.
