Christ's certain and sudden appearance to judgment

12. Come forth ye Liars; you who have taught and accustomed your selves to this sin; who have not only reported lies, but also made them; whose words have been feigned and deceitful; Did you not know, that God who made you, and to whom you owed all subjection and obedience, was a God of truth, and that he required truth? that every man should speak truth to his neighbour? that he abb•rred lying lips? that he threatened to punish liars with the second death, and give them their portion in the lake of fire? and had you no fear of God, no fear of future judgment to restrain you? might you not as easily have spoken truth, as uttered falsehood? would not you hereby have gained more credit in the world? would not you have ⟨p. 104⟩been more fit for society? would not you have had more peace in your consciences? did you excuse faults by your lies? but was it not a greater aggravation of them? if you hid them by lies, from men, could you hide them from God, who searched your heart? did you show kindness to any by your lies? and did you not injure your selves a thousand fold more? did you harm others by your lies so much as your selves? Did you not know that the Devil was the father of lies, and liars? and were you so desirous to be like him? were you so forward to do him service? Take them Devils, bind them hand and foot.
