What Pollution and Filth is so fixed and abiding, that all the Nitre and Fuller's Soap in the World cannot wash it off, nor the hottest Fire purify, purge it out, or consume it? But such an Uncleanness and Pollution is Sin, that all the Water in the mighty Ocean cannot wash it out; nay, could a Man bathe himself in b•inish Tears of godly Contrition,1 it will not cleanse, or take away the Filth of his Transgression. Tho thou wash thee with Nitre, and take unto thee much Soap; yet thy Iniquity is marked before me, saith the Lord. All the Fire of Hell cannot burn it out; Hell-Fire shall never (as saith Mr. Caryl) consume this Filth; those who are not purged in this Life, shall never be purged in the next. The Wicked shall ever be in punitive Flames, but shall not find (as Papists dream) any purgative Flames; the Fire and Brimstone of Hell shall never fetch this Uncleanness out of the Damned.
