Dost thou not see in the Scriptures many examples of Gods severity upon the abuse of his patience? What became of Sodom and Gomorrah when God waited in the days of Lot? Are they not suffering the vengeance of eternal fire? Jude v. 7. What became of the Jews upon whom Christ waited, calling upon them, and crying to them to return and reform? is not wrath come upon them to the utmost? 1 Thess. 2.16. Are not these like the Mast of a ship sunk in the sands, standing up to warn thee to avoid their course, least thou split eternally? Have not these the same inscription on them with Sennacherib's tomb, Look on me and learn to be godly? Do not the Sodomites seem to say, Look on us and learn to be godly? Do not thy Atheistical neighbours in hell, that thought they had had time enough before them, and futured their repentance cry, O look on us and learn to be godly, and that with speed! Friend, take example by others, least thou be made an example to others, To day after so long a time, thou wilt hear his voice, harden not thy heart, Heb. 4.7.
