1. The Necessity that lies upon us, being all guilty before ⟨p. 4⟩God, to seek after our Justification, and the Pardon of our Sins by Christ. That it may sink the deeper into your minds, I shall do it in this Scheme or Method: First, a reasonable Nature implies a Conscience, a Conscience implies a Law; a Law implies a Sanction; a Sanction implies a Judge, and a Judgment-day, (when all shall be called to account for breaking the Law) and this Judgment-day infers a Condemnation upon all Mankind unavoidably, unless the Lord will compromise the matter, and find out some way in the Chancery of the Gospel, wherein we may be relieved. This way God hath found out in Christ, and being brought about by such a mysterious Contrivance, we ought to be deeply and thankfully apprehensive of it, and humbly and broken-heartedly to quit the one Covenant, and accept of the Grace provided for us in the other.
