Thirdly, Divine promises shall be made good to returning souls, to repenting souls, to believing ⟨p. 352⟩souls, 1be they young or old, 2 Chron. 30.9. The Lord your God is gracious and merciful, and will not turn away his face from you, if you return unto him, Joel 2.13. And rent your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the Lord your God: for he is gracious and merciful; slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil, Isa. 55.7. Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts, and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him, and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon: or he will multiply to pardon. More of this you may see by reading the Scriptures in the margin; all sorts of sin shall be pardoned, to all sorts of believing and repenting sinners.
