4. This act, being Forinsical, is entered on record to stand irrevocable. We read of Books to be Opened in the Great Day, out of which men are to be Judged, Rev. 20.12. Now in these Books are Registered all acts that have formerly past; not only the Sins of men, but all the Transactions between God and them; and so all the pardons that have past. So that in that Judgment, though it be found that all were Sinners, and Condemned, yet the pardons that have been given o•t, are filed, and will there be produced. Now there is a double record, or two Books wherein the act is written.
