Inference 1.
1Did Christ die to sanctify his people, how deep then is the pollution of sin, that nothing but the blood of Christ can cleanse it! All the tears of a penitent sinner, should he shed as many as there have fallen drops of rain since the Creation to this day, cannot wash away one sin. The everlasting burnings in Hell, cannot purify the flaming conscience from the least sin. O guess at the wound by the largeness and length of this Tent that follows the mortal weapon sin.
