Some of the greatest miseries that Mortals have met with here in this World, have been inflicted upon them by the hand of Man, (whose power is but little, and oft-times restrained and mitigated by the Lord) as in the case of the poor Martyrs: But in Hell the pain and punishment the of damned will be from the immediate hand of Almighty God, whose power is Infinite; nay, and it shall be according to his glorious Power, or the greatness of his Power; Who knows the power of thine anger? When ¹infinite power is exerted in punishing the offending Sinner, who can conceive of that? what are the Lashes of a small Whip, to that with Scorpions? or the strokes of a Child, to the blows of a Giant? but alas, this will not reach it, because the Strokes of Gods Wrath are incomprehensible; in Hell he lets out the perfection of his Wrath, as in Heaven the perfection of his Love, &c. The Sorrows and Miseries we endure here from the hand of God, may by Repentance, by Cries and Tears, through Christs Blood be taken off; God hath promised to ease such who fly unto him (and look up to his Son) of their burden, as he did those that were stung with fiery Serpents in the Wilderness, who looked up to the brazen Serpent; but no Tears, no Cries, no Repentance, will do in Hell, there's no Gospel preached, no means of Grace afforded, no Christ held forth.

When ¹infinite power is exerted in punishing the offending Sinner, who can conceive of that? what are the Lashes of a small Whip, to that with Scorpions? or the stroaks of a Child, to the blows of a Giant? but alas, this will not reach it, because the Stroaks of Gods Wrath are incomprehensible; in Hell he lets out the perfection of his Wrath, as in Heaven the perfection of his Love, &c. The Sorrows and Miseries we endure here from the hand of God, may by Repentance, by Cryes and Tears, through Christs Blood be taken off; God hath promised to ease such who fly unto him (and look up to his Son) of their burthen, as he did those that were stung with fiery Serpents in the Wilderness, who looked up to the brazen Serpent; but no Tears, no Cries, no Repentance, will do in Hell, there's no Gospel preached, no means of Grace afforded, no Christ held forth.
