If Christ be the Saviour, then what what is like to become of Christless Sinners, yea what will become of their Souls forever? They cannot be said, their is no hope for it. Eph. 2.12 Ye were without Christ and without Hope. As for Christless sinners▪ their is no hope that they should be saved, if they Die in a Christless state. Those that were out of the Ark, when the flood came all perished, the Lord knows how many Millions of them; probably many Millions, and they Perished every soul of them. There was not a man out of th• Ark but Died. Only those in the Ark, those few, Noah and his Family were saved. So the case is here. Alas there are but few in the world that are in the Ark, that are in Christ, and those few shall be saved. But the ⟨p. 89⟩greatest part of men are out of the Ark, out of Christ, and they are certain to Perish, so Living, and so Dying.
