Q. 1. Who is the Author of saving Repentance?
A. The Spirit of God is the Author of it; the Heart by Nature is so hard, that none but the Spirit can break it, Ezek. 36.26, 27. A new heart also will I give, and a new spirit will I put within you; and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
