Quest. What's the danger of a death-bed Repentance? SERMON IX.
Luke XXIII. 42. And he said unto Jesus, Lord remember me when thou comest into thy Kingdom.
WE have in this little History of the two thieves crucified with our Lord Jesus, a great instance both of Man's wickedness, and of Divine grace.
I. Of Man's wickedness in both these thieves, who had spent all their time in sin, even to the last hour of their lives; but especially in the impenitent thief, whom neither Bonds, nor Trial, nor Condemnation had humbled or mollified, or brought to repentance; but being still under the power of an hardened heart, we find him at the last gasp railing on a Saviour instead of believing in him, and belching out his blasphemies in the very mouth of Hell, vers. 39. If thou be Christ save thy self and us.
