He that cometh unto me, I will in no wise cast out. Joh. 6. ver. 37. Come unto me all ye that labour, and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Mat. 11.28. Be of good cheer, thy sins are forgiven thee. I will never leave thee nor forsake thee, (for) I have loved thee with an everlasting love. Jer. 31.3. I lay down my life for my sheep; I lay down my life, that they might have life. I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee. 2 Cor. 6.2. Though their sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be as crimson, they shall be as wool. For I have blotted out as a thick cloud thy transgressions, and as a cloud ⟨p. 175⟩thy sins; return unto me, for I have redeemed thee, Isa. 44.22.
