First, God loves to give hopes of mercy to sinners upon their 1repentance; God loves to draw the hearts of wretched, vile sinners, by giving them hopes of mercy upon their repentance; so you have it in 1 Sam. 12. 21, 22. there they confessed their sin, and their special sin, in asking a King above all; but saith Samuel, Though you have sinned, yet do not depart from the Lord, Yet there is hope in Israel concerning this thing, as in Ezra, 10. God sees that if there be not hope, men will grow desperate in their wickedness; Jer. 2. 25. They said there was no hope, and therefore they would go on still. Oh! it's good for sinners to see there may be hope.
