Galatians 3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written… 1. It is a general curse. It extends itself to all things. Many things may reach the body that cannot reach the soul. 2. It is a growing curse. Every sinner is treasuring up unto himself wrath against the day of wrath. 3. It is real wrath. The cursings of men are but verbal curses, but the curse that is due for sin is not a verbal curse, but a real curse. 4. It is a righteous curse. We know that God is righteous in pouring out the vials of His wrath upon sinners. 5. It is an unavoidable curse. None can run sway from it. 6. It is an intolerable curse. As there is no avoiding from it, so there is no abiding of it. 7. It is an effectual curse. It doth its business where it comes; that which it is sent to do it doth always. 8. It is eternal wrath. (Philip Henry.)
