3. In Justifying us. Hath he freed me from the damning Nature of sin? and shall I delight in the defiling nature of sin? hath he freed me from the guilt of sin? and shall I love the filth of sin? Hath he done so much to wash me? and shall I be filthy still? Hath he suffered so much to purify me? and shall I delight in uncleanness still? Hath he made me a Member of Christ? and shall I be a filthy Member of so holy a Body? Hath he made me a Branch? and shall I be a polluted-Branch of so holy a Stock? Hath he lifted up the light of his Countenance on me? and shall I ever countenance sin? hath he smiled on me? and shall I ever smile upon sin?
