Heaven upon earth in the serene tranquillity and calm composure, in the sweet peace…

The 3d Use is, For strong consolation to Believers in Christ, And it is threefold, 1. Under the rise of a challenge, when the Conscience pursues; because there is here a city of refuge to run unto, A Mediator for sinners, A shield, or targe to keep off such a Da•, and to quench or ward off the deadly wound of it: Let us make the supposition (and blest eternally be God, through Jesus Christ, its but a supposition) What if this had not been? How dreadful would the very apprehension of a challenge, let be of the vindictive wrath of God have been? 2dly. To the sinner that flees to this city, there is strong consolation in this respect, that he shall be made welcome; and therefore the Believer needs not scar to make use of Christ, nor to come to this blood of sprinkling; for he waits for employment, and its the more to the praise of his exquisite skill, the moe be cleansed and cured by him through the virtue thereof; ye may therefore come, and not only so, but, come with full assurance of faith of attaining whatever ye want, and would have. Come therefore Believers boldly to the throne of grace, that •e may find mercy, and obtain grace to help in time of need, as on this ground the Apostle exhorts, Heb. 4. 3ly. These that have fled to this City of refuge, may quiet themselves; they are at peace with God, and with their own Conscience, their peace is as sure as Gods Covenant that cannot be annulled, nor altered, is, And as Christs purchase is of worth and efficacy; if the covenant of grace be firm and sure, and if this blood of sprinkling be of value and efficacy, they have certainly solid grounds of peace and consolation: and therefore we exhort Believers in Christ on all occasions to flee to this city, to renew your applications by faith to Jesus Christ, and ⟨p. 371⟩after every defilement to be-sprinkle your Consciences with this blood; and then comfort your selves in it, and bless God, who allows such large and strong consolation on you, and the Mediator, who hath purchased it for you, by this his own most precious blood.
