11. Let us consider, What in sin is a Debt. And
- 1What in sin is a debt.What in sin is a d•bt.
2. Why sins are called Debts.
In sin there is the obliquity and dissonancy from the Law of God; and this is not called a Debt, for we do not owe this to God, but the contrary, obedience and holiness. In sin there is a guilt and obligation unto eternal punishment, and this is properly a Debt; but yet in this Petition we must not limit it to the latter respect only, but include both the deformity and demerit of sin, that God would forgive both. What it is in sin that ⟨p. 105⟩doth denominate a sinner, will in time be discussed.
