no liars nor covetous persons? and are not the most civil and morally honest of you all that are out of Christ, guilty of many heart-sins, yea and lip-sins, and some gross slips in your life, which conscience doth sometimes twinge you for? Are not you guilty of impenitency and hardness of heart, and unbelief, and want of love to God, and his Son, and neglect of your own salvation? Let me tell you all that have not yet repented, that unless ye repent, and that speedily, ye shall all perish certainly, and ye shall be miserable ⟨p. 47⟩everlastingly. Repent of your sins, mourn for sin, and turn from sin, or else you will weep for sin hereafter to no purpose, and burn for sin for ever. Loath sin, and leave sin, or else Christ will disdain you at the last day, and sentence you to depart from him into everlasting fire. Confess sin, and forsake sin, or else you will find no mercy here, nor end, or the least assuagement of misery in the other world. Drunkards, repent of your sins, you have felt (after your revellings, and excessive carousings) your heads ache, and have vomited up your drink sometimes, O that you could now feel your hearts ache, and that you would vomit up your sin by repentance. Swearers, repent of your sins; you have taken Gods Name in vain, yea even torn it in pieces by your oaths, O that you would hallow Gods Name in confessing your sin, and that you would rend and tear your hearts with sorrow for the affronts you have by your oaths offered to the highest Majesty. Adulterers and unclean persons, repent of your sins; you have tasted sweetness in your •oul sins, O labour to taste bitterness in grief for your sins, that you may not feel the bitterness of hell torments, which without repentance will certainly be your portion. Unrighteous persons, liars, covetous persons, repent, or you will not escape Gods righteous judgements. Sabbath-breakers, get your hearts broken for your sins, or else God will break you to pieces with his Iron Rod. Profane persons, and all ye that have sinned more grossly, repent, and humble your selves before the Lord the more deeply: The most crimson and scarlet •ins may be washed away; those who imbrued their hands in the blood of Christ were forgiven upon repentance; and there may be hope ⟨p. 48⟩of remission for the worst of you if you repent.
