Sin, and sin only makes man abominable, and filthy in the sight of God; nothing can defile the soul but sin; though a man be clothed with filthy garments, though his skin be over-run with filthy sores; though he lye in a stinking Channel, yet the Lord will not say, he is abominable or filthy, in these respects: for even in such a state, or at such a time, Christ may have taken him in his arms and kissed him with the kisses of his lips. But though he go clothed in Scarlet, though he lye in a bed of Ivory, and is perfumed with all the spices of Arabia, yet sin makes him filthy and abominable in the eye of the Lord.
