Besides, there were some sins that men may be guilty of whom God will not utterly reject, for which there was no Sacrifice appointed in the Law of Moses: as was the ⟨p. 85⟩case with David, Psal. 51. v. 16. which makes it undeniable that there was some other way of Atonement besides them and beyond them, as our Apostle declares, Acts 13. v. 38, 39. Thirdly, The Scripture expressly rejects all the Sacrifices of the Law, when they are trusted in for any such End and Purpose, which sufficiently demonstrates that they were never appointed thereunto. See Psal. 40 v. 6, 7, 8. Psal. 50. v. 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13. Isa. 1. v. 11, 12, 13. Chap. 66. v. 3. Amos. 5.21, 22. Micah 6. v. 6, 7, 8. and other places innumerable.
