Thy sins are great: his Mercy is greater. Thy sins are many: His Mercies are more. Thy sins have abounded: His Mercy superabounds. As thou hast been plentiful in sinning; so he is in Mercy for pardoning sin, Isa. 1.18. Though your sins were as crimson, they shall be made white as Snow: though as red as Scarlet, they shall be as Wool, Isa. 55.7. Let him return to the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God: for he will multiply pardons.

Though thy sins have weakened the Law, and made that unable ⟨p. 170⟩to save thee, or do thee good, Rom. 8 3. yet they have not weakened Christ and Grace. — Christ is able to save to the utmost, even to the utmost of your sins, the utmost of your doubts and fears.
