Seventhly, Get this Principle rooted in you,
That it is the delight of Christ to give poor sinners an interest in himself.
That it is the delight of Christ to give poore sinners an interest in himselfe.
He is not only able to do it, but 'tis his delight to do it. Christs soul is in nothing more; witness his leaving his 1fathers bosom, witness his laying down his Crown, witness those many sufferings and deaths that he went through in this world: Witness those Gospel acclamations, Mark 16. 16. Revel. 22. 17. Witness those persuasive exhortations, and gracious impetrations and entreaties, Ezek. 33. 11. Mat. 11. 28. 2 Cor. 5. 20. Witness Divine Injunctions, and Comminations, 1 John 5. 23. Mat. 11. 21. Witness those pathetical lamentations, Mat. 23. 37.
