The holy ones are now called, their persons through the righteousness of Christ ⟨p. 210⟩acquitted by public proclamation, before God, Angels and men, their performances, duties, graces, services, sufferings, punctually related, to their glory, and infinitely rewarded in their perfect freedom from all evil, and eternal fruition of the chiefest good.
The holy ones are now called, their persons through the righteousness of Christ ⟨p. 210⟩acquitted by publike proclamation, before God, Angels and men, their performances, duties, graces, services, sufferings, punctually related, to their glory, and infinitely rewarded in their perfect freedom from all evil, and eternal fruition of the chiefest good.
Behold, how the unholy are with violence dragged to the bar, examined strictly by the covenant of works, have all their sins, secret, open, personal, relative, of nature, and practice, in thoughts, words, and deeds revealed publicly, and aggravated fully with all their crimson crying bloody circumstances; hark how pitifully they plead, what poor evidences they had for salvation; what sorry excuses for their Atheism and abominations; their conscience instead of a thousand witnesses accuseth them, the law casteth them, the Judge pronounceth against them a most severe sentence of condemnation; the devils feise on them for its speedy execution; Now what confusion and shame of face, what lamentation and sorrow of heart possesseth them? what doleful screechings? what bitter yellow•ngs are heard among them? Here is body cursing the soul for ⟨p. 211⟩being so ungodly a guide, and soul cursing the body for being so unready an instrument; and both cursing the time that ever they met together, and wishing (though in vain) that they might for ever be parted asunder.
