The sinners last sentence to eternal punishment, for sins of omission

1. These Sinners who are guilty of these gross Commissions, are guilty of Omissions also: They have the weight of both sorts of sins to press them to Hell. A man may be guilty of Omissions, as not to believe, not to pray, not to examine his own Soul, &c. and yet be free from gross Commissions; he may be no Liar, no Thief, no Oppressor, no Murderer, no Adulterer, at least in regard of the outward acts which I intend here: But a man cannot live in gross Commissions, but he must also live in Omissions; the Oppressor must omit to relieve the poor. He that destroys life, must neglect ⟨p. 199⟩to save it. Besides, they who live in such Commissions must omit Faith and Repentance, which are inconsistent with them; they must neglect daily to call on God, for prayer would make them leave such sinning; but indeed such sinning makes them leave of (though possibly they did sometimes begin to seek God in a formal way,) praying. Those in the 5. of James, who oppressed the Labourers, who condemned and killed the just, (gross Commissions) had their Riches corrupted, and Garments moth-eaten, i. e. were guilty of Omissions, would rather their wealth should waste with rust, and their Raiments with moths, than bestow any on the Poor. Those in the 4. of Hos. 1, 2. who were guilty of Swearing and Lying, and Killing, and Stealing, and Adultery, omitted Truth, and Mercy, and the Knowledge of God.
