14. And if you be indeed sprinkled with the blood of Jesus, then may you go away, and say; Now are all the blessings of the Covenant mine: The day that you are sprinkled with the blood of Jesus, you may say; now know I, that my sins are pardoned: Mercy is mine, and Pardon is mine, and Adoption is mine. As, when the Psalmist had a sight of God, he cried ⟨p. 404⟩out, and said: Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; So the day that you have this sight of God, in being sprinkled with the blood of Jesus, you may cry out and say: Not, Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; But, Pardon is mine, and Adoption is mine, and Heaven is mine, and God is mine for ever: Oh! Who would not labour to get his soul sprinkled now with the blood of sprinkling?
