16 too late: fly, without a moment’s delay. It is an inviolable ſanctuary. None ever periſhed that fled by faith to the compaſſionate, the divinely compaſſionate Redeemer.—His death ſhall be a full ſatisfaction for your iniquities. A ſenſe of his immenſely rich goodneſs ſhall win your affections; ſhall incline, (what all the threatenings of damnation could never effect) ſhall ſmooth your path, and expedite your progreſs to the regions of immortal honour and joy.

Having now, with great plainneſs of ſpeech, addreſſed my brethren in the miniſtry; having exhorted believers, cautioned the ſelf-righteous, and warned the wicked; let me commend the whole to your ſerious recollection, and to God’s gracious benediction.—And, O Lord moſt holy! O God moſt mighty! O holy and merciful Saviour! by thine agony and bloody ſweat—by thy Croſs and paſſion—let not the word now ſpoken be in vain in the Lord! Amen, and Amen.
