And you shall see it plain, one place for two: In Isa. 43. Verse 23, 24, 25. —Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with money, nor hast thou made me drink with the fat of thy Sacrifices: But thou hast made me serve with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thy iniquities— I, I, am he, that putteth away thy iniquities, for my own names sake, and will not remember thy sins. Would a man have expected this? this showeth freeness, when not only no deservings, (as it is v. 23. and former part of v. 24. Thou hast not, &c. but contrary deservings; Thou hast wearied me with thine iniquities. Oh infinite, oh freest mercy. God is merciful only because he will be merciful.
