The Answer is, He may give it as well as deny it,¹ and that's Argument enough to sustain our hopes, and to quicken our endeavours, put it then to the adventure: Thus the Prophet Joel pressed the Israelites to […] to God for the removal of a Judgement, and ⟨p. 239⟩the Pardon of their Sins, upon this very possibility, Rent your hearts and not your garments, and turn unto the Lord, who knows if he will return and leave a blessing behind him, Joel, 2. 13, 14. Thus the […] Ninevites provoke themselves to importune the God of heaven for the with-holding of the destruction threatened, Let us cry mightily unto God, who can tell, if he will turn and repent: Jonah, 3. 8, 9.
