21. Rejecting the Gospel

Rejecting the Gospel

Bring me here a Hottentot, or a man from Kamschatka, a wild savage who has never listened to the Word. That man may have been guilty of every sin in the catalogue of guilt except one; but that one I am sure he has not committed. He has not committed the sin of rejecting the gospel when it was preached to him. But you, when you hear the gospel, have an opportunity of committing a fresh sin; and if you have rejected it, you have added a fresh iniquity to all those others that hang about your neck.
