LAM. 5.16. Woe unto us that we have sinned.
I Declared unto you heretofore what we are to consider in the state of a natural man, a man that is not new fashioned, new moulded, a man that is not cut off from his own stock, a man that is not ingrafted into Christ, he is the son of sin, he is the son of death. First I showed you his sinfulness, and now Secondly I shall show you his accursedness, that which follows necessarily upon sin unrepented of. I declared before what the nature of sin is: And now I come to show what the dreadful effects of sin are, the cause, the consequence that follows upon sin, and that is woe and misery, Woe unto us that we have sinned. A woe is a short word, but there lieth much in it.
