1. In respect of Convictions of Sin: Evangelical Illuminations ¹of the Spirit, discover to the Soul its fearful State; not only that Sin is of a hateful Nature, but that he is condemned as a Person dead in Law, and trembles at the sight and sense thereof, not knowing but that the Sentence may be suddenly executed upon him: They were pricked in the Heart, and cried out, Men and Brethren, ²what shall we do? It was their Sin that made them cry out. But pray observe, that the sight and sense of Sin never breaks the Heart throughly and kindly, till the Soul sees the pardoning Grace of God in Christ. Show a Condemned Malefactor a Pardon from his Prince, (that was hardened before under the Sense of the Severity of the Law) O then he is melted and wounded, Goodness and Mercy overcomes him; so it is with a poor Sinner, when he sees God's Love and Grace in Christ; or a bleeding Christ, who has born the Punishment due to him for his Offences: then he is kindly broken, and mourns that ever he grieved or offended God; They shall look unto him whom they have pierced, and shall ³mourn: It was Jesus that you have crucified, the Lord of Life and Glory, whom God hath made both Lord and Christ.
