Christ's certain and sudden appearance to judgment

2. The love of God will heighten their love to him; to be loved by such an excellent Person, and with such a superlative love, O how will this inflame their hearts with love unto him? when they take a review of the past expressions of his love, and find the love of God in many things, which they did not mind, when they were in the World and when they see a thousand fold more love i• those things which they did take notice of, but with low apprehensions, and dull affections, how will it raise their hearts? when their apprehensions of his love shall be raised; they will admire electing love so free towards them without any prevision of merit in them; they will admire his love in sending his Son to redeem them, and sending his spirit to convert them; his love in pardoning their sins, i• adopting them to be his Children; now they admire his love sometimes, Behold! what manner […] love is this, that we should •e called the Children […] God! I Joh. 3. 1. Then they will admire it te• thousand times more; they will see Gods love i• all his fatherly provisions, protections, yea in hi• chastisements, and corrections, and all his providences working for their good; but O what lov• will they see in his special distinguishing mercies beyond what now they apprehend; and Gods pa•• love will have a present and deep impression upon their hearts; further they will see the treasures […] his love open, the heart of God opened, and th• glory which in Heaven he will confer upon them, […] ⟨p. 165⟩which they shall never be deprived; & what a demonstration of Gods love will this be unto them. Moreover then they shall have no doubtings of his love, which here do damp affections, they shall know assuredly that he hath loved them, doth love them, and will love them unchangeably, and eternally; and withal they shall have a full sense of his love upon their hearts, which will make such an impression, as to raise their hearts to an unconceivable height of love.
