When God stirs up Himself, and begins to cry and roar, it is that He may bring forth deliverance for His people.
Man naturally is earth-like, a heavy and lumpish piece, being taken out of the Earth, and the offspring of red Earth.
Death is like a venomous serpent, that hath a cruel and tormenting Sting, and this Sting is Sin.
The Word of God is prepared by the Almighty, a fit means to break in pieces the stony, and rocky hearts of sinners.
If a man would come to God, which is happiness, his chief end, the Way if Jesus Christ: “no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” Here man is the subject, God or happiness the end, Christ the Way.
