One Hundred and Ninety Sermons on Psalm 119

Where sin is not allowed, there is a threefold comfort. 1. Justification. 1 Joh. 1. 7. But if we walk in the light as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. It is an evidence that giveth us the comfort. He hath failings, but they are blotted out for Christs sake. 2. It is an evidence of sanctification that a work of grace hath passed upon us, 2 Cor. 1. 12. For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to you ward. Heb. 13. 18. We trust that we have a good conscience, willing in all things to live honestly. An universal purpose, and an unfeigned respect, hath the full room of an evidence. 3. A pledge of glory to ensue, Rom. 5. 5. And hope maketh not ashamed, because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.
