Q. 11. What is the Third Inference from God's Goodness?
A. That Christians should imitate God in his Goodness, in charity to our Enemies. Matt. 5.44, 45. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you, that ye may be the children of your father which is in heaven.
Q. 12. What is the Last Inference from God's Goodness?
A. That Christians have great encouragement to go to God for pardon in case of sin. Psalm 130.4. But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared; and for refuge of dangers. Nahum 1.7. The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; he knoweth them that trust in him.
