“Some talk of it as an unreasonable thing to fright persons to Heaven, but I think it is a reasonable thing to endeavor to fright persons away from Hell. They stand at its brink, and are ready to fall into it, and are senseless of their danger. Is it not a reasonable thing to fright a person out of a house on fire? That tis God’s manner to make men sensible of their misery and unworthiness before He appears in His mercy and love to them.”
