Exceeding SinfulneJ of Sin. 79 C tainly, when God (hall enlighten the Confcience, and bring thefe things withpower to their Souls, then Sinners will ftand amazed and wonder they faw not this before : There things be fo clear, that its a wonder I was fo blind, that I hadnot eyes to fee thefe before, and yet who laies there things to heart ? And thus we havedone with this Fir't thing in the Explanation, the wrongSin doth to God in his Nature, working againrc, and ftriking at God, and in his Relations, &c. Now there are, I con- fers, thole things I molt aimed at in this work behind, therefore I will wind up in a word or two, in fomeÇorallaries, and confegsrences, to be drawn fromhence : Only thus much, when I have told you Sin is a greater evil than Afitti- on ; yea, a greater evil than all the torments of Hell, as I faid in thebeginning. Thenyou may fee by what I have laid, how this.Truth refults out of thereConfecluences, becaule it wrongs. God, and God is fo infinitely good. If anie man be aii&ed, or perifh inHell eternally, it is but the goodof a Creature, and the comfort of a Creaturecrofl'ed inthis, but in Sin there is thecrofi.ng of the goodof an infinite God, and of his glory; and there is more good in Gods glory, than in all thePeace andComfort of all Creatures in the world : and if fo, then cer- tainly there mud be more evil inSin that is cross to Gods glory, than in all pains and torments that are but only crois to the Peace and Corn- fortsthat are in theCreature: I fay, Hence fol- loweth thefe Corollaries.
