The reproof of Nathans Ministry did so prevail on Davids heart, that David said, I have sinned and have done very foolishly. 1Could you go home after every Sermon you hear, when ever you hear your sins reproved, and pursue that reproof, and bless God that the Word hath checked you, that the Word hath met you, that the Word hath found you out as an enemy; could you go home and pursue a Ministerial reproof with confession, your hearts would then be in good plight to confess sin unto God.
