Therefore since all these things will be destroyed like this, what kind of people ought you to be in holy living and godliness,
Behold this horrible judgment of God before you: it should bridle your wantonness and comfort you, that you are found watching and ready to meet Him at His coming. The certainty of dissolution ought to compel all Christians to pursue universal holiness with utmost care and diligence.
AI summary
Since all things shall dissolve by fire, heaven, earth, and all upon them, what manner of persons ought you to be? Not like the scoffers who put away that evil day, but like men with loins girt and lights burning, waiting for your Lord; continually exercising grace, watching, praying, guarding against intemperance and worldly lust.
AI summary
If heaven and earth shall be so wonderfully changed and a new world made, how holy must you be to live in it? Heaven is a holy place with holy company and employments; you must be qualified for it before admission. Begin that life of holiness on earth now, for without present meetness for heaven, you shall never be admitted into it.
