Secondly, There is no promise in all the Scripture, that God will pardon a sin before mens repentance for sin: but there are many promises that God will pardon when they do repent, Prov. 23.14. Thou shalt beat him with the rod, and shalt deliver his soul from hell. Jer. 23.8. And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity whereby they have sinned against me, and I will pardon all their iniquities whereby they have sinned, and whereby they have transgressed against me. Many promises, that when men repent of sin they shall have sin pardoned: but there is never a promise that hath any show, that before a man repents he shall have pardon.

Thirdly, The Scripture doth lay them under a state of wrath and condemnation, till they believe and repent: unless ye repent ye shall all likewise perish. Luk. 13.5. I tell you, Nay: but except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. Ephes. 2.3
