But besides all this, God's Providential dealings may teach them some things of another Nature, even concerning God's mercy, and their own Recovery. As particularly.
1. That God doth not deal with Mankind in general, or themselves in particular according to their desert. This they may find by his patience, and the multitude of mercies that they enjoy.
2. Nay, that he dealeth with them so much contrary to their desert, as to give them abundance of precious mercies through all their lives, when they had deserved the greatest misery.
3. That therefore God hath found out some sufficient means, grounds or terms on which he both may and doth actually dispense with the rigour of exact Justice.
4. That therefore their case is not utterly desperate, and remediless.
