The poor ignorant world miss of heaven, because the god of this
world hath blinded their eyes, that they can neither see the evil
and damnable state they are in at present, nor the way to get out of
it; neither do they see the beauty of Jesus Christ, nor how willing
he is to save poor sinners. 2 Cor. 4: 2, 3.

The poor ignorant world miss of heaven, because they defer coming to
Christ until the time of God's patience and grace is over. Some
indeed are resolved never to come; but some again say, "We will come
hereafter;" and so it comes to pass, that because God called and
they did not hear, so "they shall cry and I will not hear," saith
the Lord. Zech. 7: 11-13.

The poor ignorant world miss of heaven, because they have false
apprehensions of God's mercy. They say in their hearts, "We shall
have peace, though we walk in the imagination of our heart." Deut.
29: 19-21.

The poor ignorant world miss of heaven, because they make light of
the gospel that offers mercy to them freely, and because they lean
upon their own good meanings and thinkings and doings. Matt. 22:
1-5; Rom. 9: 30, 31.

The poor carnal world miss of heaven, because by unbelief, which
reigns in them, they are kept for ever from being clothed with
Christ's righteousness, and from washing in his blood, without which
there is no remission of sin nor justification.

Blush, sinner, blush! Ah, that thou hadst grace to blush.
