If all manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven to men, then this as well as others. Matth. 12.31. We are not with Theophilact to understand that place of the certainty of pardon: much less with Origen of the desert of it: nor yet with Jansenius of the facility of it, but rather of the possibility of forgiveness. It shall be so to some, it may be so to you: even those whose wicked hands had crucified Christ, receive remission by that blood they shed. Act. 2.23, 38. compared.
