1. If ever thou wouldest get down the dominion of sin, thou ⟨p. 168⟩must look up to God and Christ, they are able to disannul the covenant with sin, and to subdue iniquities, Rom. 8. 2. the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death, look as it must be a Rich mercy which pardons, so it must be a mighty power which conquers sin, why? but what is it to the Lord to command thy heart home to himself, to cast down the high imaginations and strong holds? As Jehoshaphat spake against those strong armies, we know not what to do: yet our eyes are upon thee; soe in the sense of thy natural vileness and sinful dominion, O Lord I am bound, I am in bondage, I am dead in sins, Lord I am unable to escape, but thou art able to deliver, O deliver my soul for thy mercies sake, and subdue mine iniquities, and show forth thy power, &c: who shall deliver me, I thank God through Jesus Christ, Rom. 7. 24, 25.
