God is content to return to thee, thou art turned from God, and God in ⟨p. 110⟩the ways of his Administrations is turned away from thee; but mark the Promise, in Jer. 8. 4, 5. Thus saith the 1Lord, Shall they fall, and not arise? shall he turn away, and not return? by then is this people of Jerusalem slidden back by a perpetual back-sliding? they hold fast deceit, they refuse to return.

Shall he turn away] Some interpret this of God: The Lord is not so turned back, but he is ready to return; Oh! why should•• thou backslide with a perpetual back-sliding?
