Sermons preached

1. Of Information. It informs us,

1. Of the vain Hopes of the Carnal, and such as yet live in their Sins; for at present they have no Interest in him, and so living and dying will find him rather a Judge than a Saviour, for the greatest part of their Work is undone. We must be saved from the Guilt and Power of Sin, and the latter is the proper Sign of our Recovery. We are justified in the Name of the Lord Jesus, and sanctified also in the Spirit of our God. Christ did not purchase our Salvation by piece-meal, nor can we receive it by piece-meal, a whole Saviour we must have, or no Saviour. She was the true Mother, that pleaded against the dividing of the Infant. They are true Christians, I am sure, who would have Christ undivided, who would have him Wisdom, and Righteousness, ⟨p. 61⟩and Sanctification, and Redemption; for if you take him in one respect, and neglect him in another, especially the chief thing you should make use of him for, you do not take him at all. Therefore the Carnal, that live in their Sins, are at present excluded from all Claim to Christ.
