SERMON XX.
TITUS II.14. —That he might redeem us from all Iniquity, &c.
I Come to handle the second Encouragement, namely, that which is taken from the Merit of Christ's Death: And therein, (1.) Here is Christ's Act, he gave himself for us, to be an Expiatory Sacrifice and Ransom for Souls. (2.) I come to the second Branch, and that is Christ's Aim, He gave himself: but why? To redeem us from all Iniquity, &c. Here is the Privative and Positive Part of this Deliverance; first Redemption, then Sanctification.

The Privative Part we must first take notice of, and that is Redemption, a Phrase which the Apostle useth here to enforce us to a Denial of Ungodliness and worldly Lusts.
