Shall God enter this complaint against thee? Why dost thou put him off? Why dost thou stop thine ear? Canst thou defend thyself? When thou art called to an account for thy neglects of so great salvation, what canst thou answer? or doest thou think thou shalt escape the judgment? Heb. ii. 3. No more such Christs! There will be no more such Christs, sinner! Oh, put not the day, the day of grace, away from thee! if it be once gone, it will never come again, sinner. But what is it that has got thy heart, and that keeps it from thy Saviour? "Who in the heaven can be compared unto the Lord? who among the sons of the mighty can be likened unto the Lord?" Psl. lxxxix. 6. Hast thou, thinkest thou, found anything so good as Jesus Christ? Is there any among thy sins, thy companions, and foolish delights, that like Christ can help thee in the day of thy distress? Behold, the greatness of thy sins cannot hinder; let not the stubbornness of thy heart hinder thee, sinner. Object. But I am ashamed. Answ. Oh! Do not be ashamed to be saved, sinner. Object. But my old companions will mock me. Answ. Oh! Do not be mocked out of eternal life, sinner. Thy stubbornness affects, afflicts the heart of thy Saviour. Carest |
