But hear now what Christ speaks to thee. This is the language of his death and wounds, fear not sin. Have I been so long with thee and dost thou not know me, Philip? so saith he to thy soul, what! been here so long with me, and conversed with me so long, and dost thou ⟨p. 234⟩not know me yet? are thy sins infinite, and are not my mercies infinite? are thy sins great, and am not I God above all, equal with the father? O look unto me, and rest in the fullness of my satisfaction: I am thy surety. All thy debts be upon me: all thy wants are upon me, what if thou hast nothing to pay? I have enough for me and thee. I am the Scape-goat that have carried away thy sin into a land of forgetfulness, I have slain the enmity of sin upon the cross, and have reconciled you to my Father. Here is redemption, full redemption, plentiful redemption, behold, my blood speaketh peace to you. Wilt thou not believe the voice of my death and blood to thee? thus Christ's death can speak sufficiently to all that thy sins can say' against thee.
