And 3. In spreading before God the wickednesses of great Sinners, admire his infinite Power, that can not only stop the worst of men in, but turn them from their course of opposing God by their Rebellions. We are not so to mourn for, as to despair of the Conversion of the worst. They are as much within the Converting reach, as the Destructive reach of Gods hand. Say, 1. This great Sinner whose Impieties I bewail, can easily by thy irresistible Grace, which no hard heart can reject, (as was Saul) be made not only of a Wolf, a Sheep, but even a Shepherd too. I censure his way, but I dare not determine his end. Thou hast made white Paper of as black and filthy dunghill rags. What cannot the infinite Power of God accomplish for the Conversion of the greatest Sinner? I now bewail him Lord, but thou canst also make him more to bewail himself, and make him as zealous in setting up, as now he is in destroying thy People. It should more comfort thee that thou sinnest not with them, than trouble thee that thou sufferest from them. God can make strait timber of a crooked piece. God can take his Garden out of Satan's Waste. Oh! how glorious would pardoning Grace and converting Power appear in causing such a change!
