To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
that we could look upon every unlawful action, and particularly every sin against conscience, as the seed of that worm which will gn-aw our souls in hell with intense pain, as part of that fuel which is kindling into a flame to torment our consciences forever, and that under the powerful influences of these representations of sin we might flee to the utmost distance from it with horror, and make our safe escape ! Reflect. II. If the punishments of hell, appointed by the blessed God, carry so mu...ch terror in them, ' how much mistaken are the sinful children of men in the ideas which they form of the great and blessed God ? This representa- tion of the vengeance of the Lord in hell may be of use to refute such mistaken opinions. Some have framed a God for themselves ; not such as dwells in the heavens, not such as he has described himself in his word; but their vain imagination has raised up an idol made of mere goodness and mercy, without holiness and justice. It is their own self-love which forms this idle and foolish image of the God that made them, because they do not like to think of falling under the terrors of his power.
