(1.) Our not watching for the Coming of the Lord. Some can live merrily and quietly in a careless unprepared estate; but do these men consider what it is to meet with their Redeemer, before they have gotten any benefit by his Blood? We cannot draw nigh to him with any Comfort, till we feel the Benefit of his Death, Heb. 10.22. His business is to present his People faultless to God, Jude 24. These men do not consider what 'tis to meet with the Judge, 1 Pet. 4.5. There is no Plea but Innocency and Pardon in Christ, Rom. 8.1. 1 Joh. 3.8.

These do not consider what it is to meet the Bridegroom when their filthy Garments are yet on.
