And let us aigue ourselves into this as our duty, by consider - ing how dearly our Lord Jesus has pur - chased our day of grace and opportunity of salvation: how many have been damned and lost forever, by their not improving this talent of time: how dreadful the con - demnation of such will be, who choose dark - ness rather than light; how unreasonable it is, to be so careful of the body, and so regard - less of the soul; how strange it is, that we should not do that for our eternal advantage, which worldlings do for a htde temporal gain; and, lastly, how uncertain we are of Uie continuance of our time and season ofgrace.
