Use. And was it Sin he purged? this may teach us how hateful sin is, that put him thus to his Purge: Every sin is a nail, a thorn, a spear, and every sinner a Jew, a Judas, a Pilate: howsoever then we may seek to shift it on others, yet are we found the principal in this act our selves; you know it is not the Executioner that properly kills the man, sin only is the murderer, yea, our sins only are the crucifiers of the Lord of glory: yea, (if you will please to hear me) I will yet say more, our sins only did not crucify him, but do crucify him afresh, Heb. 6.6.¹ and herein how far do we exceed the cruelty of the Jews? then his body was passible and mortal, but now it is glorified and immortal; they knew not what they did,² for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory: but we know well enough what we do and say too: they buried Christ in the earth, and the third day he rose again from the dead; but we through sin so bury him in oblivion, that not once in three days, three weeks he ariseth, or shineth in our hearts; O shame of Christians to forget so great a mercy! O sin past shame to crucify afresh the Son of God! Think of it (beloved) sin is the death of Christ, and would you not hate him that kills your brother, your father, your Master, your King, your God? ⟨p. 190⟩beware then of sin, that does it all at a blow! and if you are tempted to it; suppose with your selves that you saw Christ Jesus coming towards you, wrapped in linens, bound with a kerchief, and crying after you in this ghastly manner: beware, take heed what you do, once have your sins most vilely murdered me, but now seeing my wounds are whole again, do not (I beseech you) rub and revive them with your multiplied sins; pity, pity me your Jesus, save me your Saviour, once have I dyed, and had not that one death been sufficient, I would have dyed a thousand deaths more to have saved your souls, why then do you sin again to renew my sufferings? O my Saviour, who will not leave to sin that but hears thy voice in the gardens? ³lo the companions hearken unto thy voice, cause me to hear it: it is I that have sinned, and if this be the fruit of it, let me rather be torn of beasts, be devoured of Worms, be violently pulled or haled with racks, then wittingly, or wilfully commit a sin.
