From 1 Tim. 1. 15.1 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, (saith Paul) That Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners: And so say I too; it is worthy all acceptation, that Christ should come from the bosom of his Father, who was infinitely glorious and happy, that he should come into the world to save me, me a sinner, me the chief of sinners; me, that if saved, I do verily believe, there is none in heaven, nor any that ever shall come thither, that hath or ⟨p. 244⟩will have the cause to magnify and adore free grace, as I shall have. And herein doth God commend his love towards me—For if when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life, Rom. 5. 10.
