- Description:
- Sermon written by Reverend Henry Newton on the nature of sin. Newton declares that all men indulge in sin and asks the question 'is it profitable?' He describes certain sins as being unprofitable even in this world due to laws against them. He also describes some sins as increasing to one's estate but never one's happiness nor contentment. He then describes how sin is shameful, making man a slave to lust and passions. And, finally, he describes how none of this compares to the fact that sin is destructive to one's soul and will lead one to miss out on eternal life.
