He that believeth not on the Son, the Wrath of God abideth on him. He who believes not in the Blood of the Lamb, must feel the Wrath of the Lamb. The Gentiles that believe not in Christ, will be as well damned as the Jews who blaspheme him. And if Unbelief be so fearful and damnable a Sin, shall we not be afraid to live in it?
