Lastly, Is sin the Greatest Evil in the world? Oh then! let us, Above all things in the world, labour to get our selves rid of sin: Get a pardon of sin. Say with David—Oh! Take away the iniquity of thy servant.
What will the enjoyment of all other goods profit thee, if thy sins be not pardoned? what profit had Dives of his wealth? Saul of his Kingdom? &c.
It is a thing greatly to be lamented to see, How active and serious men are, about removing of other evils on them, and the purchasing and procuring of other goods; but yet how slight, how superficial they are about getting Pardon of sin.
Thy Person is under the Guilt of Sin. Thou standest a Condemned man and woman—Damnatus antequam Natus. And God hath given thee time, and that time is not a time of Reprieval only; but is a time, that God hath afforded thee to get a pardon in.
