Meditation 7. Again, from hence see what is the evil of sin, how great it is that hath made such a breach between God and my soul, that only such a way, and such a means must take away my sin; I must either have lain under the burden of my sin eternally, or Jesus Christ that's God and man must suffer so much for it; Oh, what Meditations are these to take up the hearts of men!

Meditation 8. Behold the infinite love of God to mankind, and the love of Jesus Christ, that rather than God would see the children of men to perish eternally, he would send his Son to take our nature upon him, and thus to suffer such dreadful things; herein God shows his love; it is not the love of God so much in giving you a good voyage, and prospering you outwardly in the world; But, so God loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son: And it pleased the father to break his Son, and to pour out his blood, here is the love of God and of Jesus Christ; Oh, what a powerful, mighty, drawing, efficacious Meditation should this be unto us!
