1. That forgiveness of sin may be had after Baptism. That although we sin after that solemn stipulation, yet God will not divorce us, or cast us (as it were) out of the Ark into the deluge. There have been some of old, as the Novatians, 1and Anabaptists of late, who have maintained, There is no hope of pardon to those that after their Baptism do foully sin; for there they suppose is given the plenary Remission; but this is false and uncomfortable: for we have the incestuous person after his repentance received into favour again. How desperate had Peters condition been, if this had been true? And when our Saviour bids us Forgive our brother seventy times seven, we may not think there is more love in the creature, then in the Creator, and Gods kindness beyond that of a mans, is most emphatically described, Jer. 3.1. Where God promiseth a reconciliation to his people, though they played the adulteress with him.
