In a deep sleep!',

Back to John Flavel's "The Method of Grace"

---

The Christ-less and unregenerate world are in a deep 
sleep! A spirit of slumber and security is fallen upon 
them, though they lie immediately exposed to eternal 
wrath, ready to drop into hell every moment! 

A man fast asleep in a house on fire, and while the 
consuming flames are round about him, having his 
imagination sporting itself in some pleasant dream, 
is a very accurate picture of the unregenerate soul.
