Matthew11:22
Verse 22. It shall be more tolerable] Men are therefore theIdeò deteriores sumus quia [illegible: 1 word] esse [illegible: 2 words]. [illegible: 1 word]. worse, because they ought to be better: and shall be deeper in hell, because heaven was offered unto them, but they would not. Ingentia beneficia, flagitia, supplicia, say the Centurists. Good turns aggravate unkindnesses: and mens offences are increased by their obligations. If Turks and Tartars shall be damned, debauched Christians shall be double-damned: because, though they defie not, yet they deny the Lord that bought them; whilest by their unchristian conversation they tell the world, that either there is no such thing as Christ, or if there be, yet that he is but a weak Christ, and that there is no such power in his death, or efficacy in his resurrection to sanctifie those that belong unto him.
