Of How Much Sorer Punishment? Trampling Christ Under Foot.

The Narrated Puritan

Some things are required for the guilt of this sin- 1. That it be known unto the sinner, both in point of right and fact, to be such a sin as whereunto the penalty of death without dispensation was annexed. 2. That therefore the sense of God in the law be suggested unto the soul in and by the ordinary means of it. 3. That the resolution of continuing in it, and the perpetration of it, doth prevail against all convictions and fear of punishment. 4. That motives unto the contrary, with reluctancies of conscience, be stifled or overcome.
