Sin is the cause of Gods Wrath and Vengeance, both of that which is felt here and shall eternally be felt and undergone hereafter; the word (as the learned note) which is translated Wrath, comes from a Root [Greek or Hebrew] that signifies heat, or to be hot, and hence 'tis compared to fire; an angry Man we say is a fiery Man, a Man that hath much fire or fury in him; the Wrath of man is hot, but the Wrath of God is much hotter: Because there is Wrath, beware. Sirs, there is Wrath in the Heart of 1God against Sinners, there his anger is kindled; there is ⟨p. 42⟩Wrath also in his Decree, and in his Threatenings, his Wrath continues on all Unbelievers: He that believeth not, the Wrath of God abideth upon him. Tho' many of them do not feel it, they 2have not the sense of it, but shall have one day; yet there are some that God lets out his Wrath upon to such a degree here, that they do feel it, and cry out under the sense and horror thereof in a fearful manner.
