IN the first place upon all what hath been said of the willingness of God, and Christ to be reconciled unto sinners, that they thus do entreat sinners we are taught; First, to stand and admire at the infinite riches of the ••ace of God, and especially you who have felt this work of God effectually upon your Hearts; You who have found God wooing, and suing to your hearts: give God the glory of his Grace, and admire at it. It were mercy for the Lord once to offer upon any terms to be reconciled unto sinners, or to show them any favour. Merely to offer it, that is grace; that is to be admired, and that is more than God hath done to the Angels; he would not do so much to them: But now that God should, not only offer: but send to seek after thee; to cry after you again, and again; to be importunate with you, to entreat, and beseech, not only by his Ministers: but by this own spirit (for there is the work of that) the spirit of God comes and woos, and beseeches sinners to come in and be reconciled) Oh stand and admire at this forever: Let it take up your hearts to give glory to him and the rather if you consider these four things.
