IV. Against his Honour. God will so show his love to the Sinner, as withal to show his hatred to Sin. Therefore, he that names the name of Jesus must depart from Iniquity, 2 Tim. 2.19. and deny all Ungodliness: And he that hath hope of Life by Christ, must purify himself, as he is pure, 1 John 3 3. Titus 2.12. otherwise Christ would be thought a favourer of Sin. The Lord Jesus would have all the World to know, tho' he pardon sin, he will not protect it. If holy David shall say, Depart from me all ye workers of Iniquity, Psalm 6.8. and shall shut the Doors against them, Psalm 101.7. shall not such much more expect it from Christ's Holiness? would it be for his Honour, to have the Dogs to the Table, or to lodge the Swine with his Children, or to have Abraham's Bosom to be a Nest of Vipers?
