Tenthly, The Lord commands his people not to suffer sin to reign in them, Rom. 6.12. Let not sin reign in your mortal body. And he has promised and engaged himself, that sin shall not reign in them, Rom. 6.14. Sin shall not have dominion over you. Jer. 33.8. And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity. Ezek. 36.25. Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean from all your filthiness; and from all your Idols will I cleanse you. Mich. 7.19. He will subdue our iniquities. But,
Eleventhly, He has commanded his people to loath their sins, and to loath themselves for their sins, Psal. 97.10. Ye that love the Lord hate evil. Rom. 12.9. Abhor that which is evil. And the Lord has promised and engaged himself to give them such a frame of spirit, Ezek. 36.13. Then shall ye remember your own evil ways, and your doings that were not good, and shall loath your selves in your own sight for your iniquities, and for your abominations. Ezek. 6.9. And they that escape of you shall remember me among the Nations whither they shall be carried captives, because I am broken with their whorish heart, which hath departed from me, and with their eyes which go a whoring after their Idols, and they shall loath themselves for the evils which they have committed in all their abominations.
