Sincere Love to God is a sin-abating affection; §21This I gather from the prophetical prediction of Jesus Christ,1 concerning these times, Because iniquity shall abound, 2the love of many shall wax cold; hence it is evident, That the abounding of iniquity, springs from the total want or decay of love; if love did abound, iniquity could not abound, it would abate the force of it; love is therefore called a breast-plate.
