As we have greater opportunity of knowledge, and the promise of the assistance of the divine Spirit; as we have the most excellent precepts, and the most endearing motives imaginable; what account shall we render to God if we despise this day of grace, which is the last state of things? There will be no other gospel, no greater mediator than our Lord Jesus Christ, no other Saviour: things are come to a maturity; the gospel-church is the kingdom of heaven. Now we are to work while it is day, and to seek an everlasting interest in this kingdom: for if we neglect this administration of grace, no other will be afforded us.
Joseph Stennett — Joseph Stennett, The Works of the Late Reverend and Learned Mr. Joseph Stennett, Vol. I, Containing Fifteen Sermons Never Before Publish'd (London, 1731), Sermon X, on Matt. xi. 11, 12, p. 325
