Take heed, if the proclamation of mercy, call thee not in: if thou stand out as a Rebel, and come not in, but go on still: then justice lays hold on thee: Gods wrath shall smoke against thee. As we see in Prov. 1. I will laugh at your destruction, speaking of those that would not come in, Chidas, it is in Isaiah. 27. 11. He that formed them and made them will have no mercy on them, nor show them favour. He will have no delight in them. They are Ignorant sots, and will not labour to know God, and his will, to do, and obey it: he that made them will have no delight in them, and he that formed them will reject them. It is a pitiful thing, when God that made them, and formed them in their mothers womb; whose creatures they are, shall have no delight in them, when he that made them, his heart shall not pity them Ezek. 18. 18. he that goes on in a course of sin presumptuously, and doth not repent, Gods eye shall not pity him, he that made him will have no delight in him.
