Let, first, a few preparatory Assertions, make our Thoughts ready to take in a Right Notion of this Illustrious Benefit▪ The Forgiveness of our Sins.
It is to be Asserted, That we are […] Sinners against the Law of God, & have brought horrible Ruins on our selves by our Sins. We have this Assertion, in Ro. 3.23. All have sinned, and come short of the Glory of God. We have by our Sins, Forfeited all the Blessings, which the Law of God promised unto the Keepers of that Law; yea, we have by our Sins Incurred all those Wants and Woes, & Plagues, ⟨image ?⟩which the Law has denounced unto them that keep it not.

Again; It is to be Asserted, That the Chosen of God, cannot be Rescued, as He has purposed, out of their Horrible Ruins, except the Law of God be Answered. We have this Assertion, in Heb. 1.13. Thou canst not Look upon Iniquity. God by His most wise Law, hath secured the Interests of His Glory; and He is a Judge, that will by no means have the Equity, and the Verity, of His Law, Impeached.
