Justification and Sanctification: Gods forgiving, and our forgoing, are equally as large one as the other. As God justifies from the guilt of all sin; so he sanctifies from the Corruption of all Sin.
Grace in God forgives all Sin. And,
Grace in us makes us forgo all Sin: where sin is forgiven, there sin is forsaken.
3. A Third sort, are they, Who seek a pardon of Sin, without sense of Sin; who seek forgiveness of Sin, without remorse for sin: Men, who are never troubled with any sense, with any compunction of heart for sin.
Would you not take it for a dallying with you; if one had greatly offended you, and should come to desire you your forgiveness, without any sense or remorse of it? What do you think God will do?
