1. If you be without the knowledge of Christ, and yet sit down contented in your ignorance, neither desiring, nor labouring after the knowledge of him, then I may safely say, that for the present thou art without Jesus Christ, if you are like those spoken of in 2 Pet. 3. 5. For this they 1are willingly ignorant of, that by the word of ⟨p. 40⟩God, the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water, and in the water: or like those in Job 2. 14. that say unto God; 2Depart from us; for we desire not the knowledge of thy ways: if you are such as these, I can safely pronounce you to be Christless men.
