And tho the Jews had, by the Mosaick and Prophetick Dispensations, sufficient Notices of another Life; yet Life and Immortality were never so brought to Light before, as by the Gospel of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. But Christians are deliver’d from this Fear of Death, by this great and fundamental Truth of the Gospel, viz. their being redeem’d from the Guilt of Sin, which alone makes Death really terrible; For the Sting of Death is Sin, and the Strength of Sin is the Law; but Thanks be to God who hath given us the Victory, thro our Lord Jesus Christ, over Sin, and consequently over Death; especially by the Promise of a glorious Resurrection, when Death shall be swallow’d up in an endless Life.
