Gods redeeming mercies, are great aggravations of our sin. When Obs. 1 God delivers, and we attribute it to any thing in us, o• that we have done, is mighty provoking to God, because it takes away his glory in delivering.
Gods reedeeming mercies, are great aggravations of our sin. When Obs. 1 God delivers, and we attribute it to any thing in us, o• that we have done, is mighty provoking to God, because it takes away his glory in delivering.
When God delivers a people or person from danger, and they now Obs. 2, think to sin by this means more freely against him, is a lying against God. As they, in Jer. 7.10. said they were delivered for to do all these abominations. Or as that wicked King,1 being delivered in a storm, said it was to this end, That he might root out all the Lutherans. So, are there not many so vile who being delivered in a sickness, or from any great danger, think it is, that they might sin more freely: which is a most horrible wickedness, and lying against the Lord.
