USE. I. Learn hence what impenitent sinners may expect to find at Gods hand. When Christ himself •uffered, he advised to such an improvement of it, Luk. 23. 31. If it be done thus in a green tree, what ⟨p. 368⟩shall be done in the dry. And see, 1 Pet. 4. 17. If his Children, whom God loves with a fathers love may be entertained with such Providences, and that although they have humbled themselves, sought mercy, and obtained pardon, hard hearted and obstinate Sinners, who will not seek God, nor fall down before him, but go on in their Transgressions, may well expect him to fall upon them in his greatest fury, and destroy them for ever from his presence. If Sin be so odious to him, that he will testify against it in those to whom he is reconciled in Christ, they that sin with an high hand, and have no Redeemer to appear for them, must look to drink up the dregs of the Cup of his indignation: and let every Unregenerate Sinner be suitably affected with it, and be afraid of this holy God.
