their_o iniquity_n and_o why_o because_o he_o remember_v they_o be_v but_o flesh_n and_o indeed_o one_o will_v wonder_v how_o the_o lord_n can_v forgive_v so_o obstinate_a a_o people_n that_o have_v

if_o we_o 9_o confess_v our_o sin_n he_o be_v faithful_a and_o just_a to_o forgive_v we_o this_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o all_o our_o comfort_n that_o he_o eye_v just_a and_o faithful_a for_o be_v

the_o lord_n descend_v a_o little_a low_o and_o help_v we_o out_o with_o a_o argument_n of_o his_o readiness_n to_o pardon_v from_o the_o consideration_n of_o what_o be_v in_o ourselves_o consider_v how_o you_o will_v deal_v with_o your_o child_n psal._n 103._o 13._o like_a as_o a_o father_n pity_v his_o 13_o child_n so_o the_o lord_n they_o that_o fear_v he_o if_o a_o child_n that_o be_v you_o offend_v you_o a_o hundred_o time_n yet_o if_o he_o come_v in_o and_o humble_a himself_o you_o will_v pardon_v he_o and_o will_v not_o god_n when_o his_o people_n humble_v themselves_o we_o use_v but_o such_o argument_n as_o god_n himself_o do_v and_o do_v but_o set_v he_o and_o your_o conscience_n together_o to_o reason_v the_o case_n but_o you_o will_v object_v again_o and_o say_v it_o be_v possible_a for_o a_o child_n so_o to_o offend_v as_o that_o a_o father_n will_v not_o nor_o can_v forgive_v he_o true_o but_o the_o psalmist_n meaning_n be_v not_o as_o if_o god_n will_v pardon_v no_o more_o than_o a_o earthly_a father_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a if_o you_o that_o be_v earthly_a father_n can_v do_v so_o much_o i_o that_o be_o a_o infinite_a lord_n god_n and_o not_o man_n can_v do_v much_o more_o who_o be_v omnipotent_a and_o can_v do_v whatsoever_o he_o will_v and_o show_v his_o omnipotency_n in_o pardon_v i_o compare_v with_o this_o isaiah_n 55._o 9_o my_o thought_n be_v not_o as_o your_o thought_n what_o though_o your_o sin_n be_v great_a and_o in_o their_o own_o thought_n unpardonable_a and_o you_o think_v they_o great_a than_o can_v be_v forgive_v but_o my_o

and_o my_o way_n above_o you_o in_o multiply_v to_o pardon_v though_o you_o can_v not_o forgive_v nay_o though_o you_o can_v think_v or_o imagine_v how_o such_o transgression_n shall_v be_v forgive_v yet_o i_o can_v forgive_v they_o a_o second_o sort_n of_o argument_n be_v take_v from_o the_o forgiveness_n mean_n and_o instrument_n by_o which_o forgiveness_n be_v convey_v we_o be_v come_v to_o jesus_n the_o mediator_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n and_o to_o the_o blood_n of_o sprinkle_v which_o speak_v better_a thing_n than_o the_o blood_n of_o abel_n hebrew_n 12._o 24._o he_o speak_v this_o as_o a_o encouragement_n to_o their_o faith_n and_o it_o be_v as_o if_o he_o 24._o have_v say_v consider_v how_o the_o blood_n of_o abel_n though_o but_o the_o blood_n of_o a_o poor_a man_n cry_v so_o loud_o that_o it_o come_v up_o to_o heaven_n that_o it_o bring_v down_o vengeance_n upon_o cain_n how_o loud_o then_o shall_v christ_n blood_n speak_v what_o be_v it_o able_a to_o procure_v for_o we_o which_o speak_v better_a thing_n that_o be_v for_o mercy_n which_o god_n be_v more_o ready_a to_o hear_v the_o cry_n for_o then_o for_o vengeance_n and_o this_o cry_n be_v not_o of_o the_o blood_n of_o a_o ordinary_a man_n as_o abel_n be_v but_o of_o the_o blood_n of_o his_o own_o son_n to_o which_o purpose_n compare_v with_o this_o that_o place_n heb._n 9_o 14._o how_o much_o more_o shall_v the_o 14._o blood_n of_o christ_n who_o through_o the_o eternal_a spirit_n offer_v up_o himself_o without_o spot_n to_o god_n purge_v your_o conscience_n from_o dead_a work_n as_o in_o the_o other_o place_n he_o compare_v it_o with_o abel_n blood_n so_o here_o with_o the_o blood_n of_o bull_n and_o goat_n which_o in_o the_o old_a law_n serve_v by_o god_n appointment_n for_o the_o outward_a purification_n of_o the_o flesh_n how_o much_o more_o how_o infinite_o transcendent_o more_o above_o our_o thought_n or_o imagination_n shall_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v able_a to_o purge_v your_o conscience_n we_o not_o able_a to_o conceive_v nor_o he_o to_o express_v he_o only_o say_v how_o much_o more_o etc._n etc._n and_o he_o back_v it_o with_o two_o reason_n which_o put_v together_o show_v the_o transcendency_n of_o that_o sufficiency_n in_o christ_n blood_n to_o cleanse_v we_o the_o first_o from_o the_o eternal_a spirit_n whereby_o he_o offer_v up_o himself_o it_o be_v not_o the_o blood_n or_o sacrifice_n of_o a_o mere_a man_n but_o of_o god_n which_o sacrifice_n be_v in_o itself_o without_o spot_n there_o be_v three_o objection_n we_o usual_o make_v against_o sin_n ourselves_o by_o reason_n of_o our_o sin_n 1._o that_o they_o be_v so_o many_o 2._o so_o great_a 3._o that_o they_o be_v reiterated_a and_o often_o fall_v into_o answer_v now_o the_o sprinkle_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n thus_o offer_v be_v sufficient_a to_o cleanse_v your_o conscience_n from_o and_o to_o take_v away_o all_o these_o ezek._n 36._o 25._o then_o will_v i_o 25._o sprinkle_v clean_a water_n upon_o you_o and_o you_o shall_v be_v clean_o from_o all_o your_o filthiness_n and_o from_o all_o your_o idol_n will_v i_o cleanse_v you_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n
