what crying sins are to be seen amongst us Have we not sins of the greatest magnitude who have mercies of the highest nature Are not our sins worse than Sodoms when our mercies are abundantly more than that enjoyed Sins in England are greater than sins in other Nations that have not partaken of such signal favours as we We wonder God bears with Antichristian Rome with forreign Idolaters Alas their sins are not of that nature that ours are Our sins it may be are minoris infamiae of lesser infamy but majoris reatus of greater guilt than theirs Our sins are double and the more our mercies increase the more abundant aggravations belong to our sins Are we not sinners above all that have favours beyond any Our sins that are small in abstracto considered abstractly are great in concreto considering the circumstances of them If small sins will not startle us here are great sins then to amaze us Oh let our sins that we have committed be more before us that so the sense of their greatness may prevent our proceeding in them 2. Hence see what need we have of great Repentance an ordinary sorrow will not answer our extraordinary sins Gravissima peccata gravissimis lamentis indigent Greatest provocations call for greatest lamentations Oh what tears and lamentations can be great enough for our horrid sins What sighs can be deep enough for a Nation so deeply involved in sin Should not our mourning be as in the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the Valley of Megiddon every family apart every person apart Should not Ninive be our president Should not our England become a Bokim and our Island be overflown with tears Oh what floods of tears is there need of to wash away our abominable pollutions Oh what wailing and weeping should be in a Nation living and wallowing in such iniquities Aut poenitendum vel pereundum Repentance onely can prevent our ruine Repentance onely can make justice to retreat Repentance onely can deliver us now delivered But where shall we finde it Where are the weeping eyes the mourning hearts Oh that repentance might appear among us lest judgments appear against us Oh that we could lay our selves down at the feet of mercy by humiliation that we may not be laid down in a dreadful desolation by the hands of justice Oh that a hearty repentance might prevent our hastening ruine Oh that we might lie in breathing sweats of Godly sorrow that we may not lie sweltring in our blood Our sins reach up to Heaven let our sorrow reach to heart Oh that each part of unfeigned repentance might be really acted by us Let us make a strict inquiry into our fins commune with our hearts let us go the Circuit of our hearts and lives and see the abominable sins to be condemned there Let us read the Book of Conscience and see what sins we there stand indicted for As Letters wrote with the juice of Oranges are not to be read but by the fire Thus some have their sins written and will not read them now but shall at last read them by the fire of Hell Lam. 3.40 Let us search and try our ways Oh we are senseless of our sins but aeger non sentiens periculosius laborat a senseless sick man is most in danger Oh open your eyes then and see what disorders in heart what wickedness in life refuse not a sight of thy sins now one day God will set them before thy eyes Disown not the Charges that are against thee without reason Let us no longer sew Fig-leaves on our sins The impartial Judge of Heaven and Earth knows our crimes Let us therefore return and say Father I have sinned Thus did those Lam. 5.16 Wo be to us we have sinned David yeilded the case to Nathan I am the man maist thou not justly say I am the man that have been nothing the better for deliverance I am the man or woman have gone on in Pride Sensuality without repentance reformation Defend not thy sins by excuses but own them be convinced without further demur and condemn thy self as a guilty malefactor Then let us pour out our tears and open the Flood-gates of Godly sorrow and if we would escape let us be like those Ezek. 7.16 Who were like Doves in the Valleys mourning every one for their own iniquity Oh that our proud hearts might yeild to this work Our dry eyes be filled with tears Let us fill Gods bottle with our tears What is weeping good for but to testifie our sorrow for sin it cannot recover a dying friend it may a dying Nation it cannot stop the course of death it may the coming of judgments Open then the windows of Heaven and break up the deeps and let us make us a hearty weeping as may prevent the heavy judgments our great sins are calling for Then let us make a holy resolution in the strength of the Almighty to cease from our sins Say as holy Iob Job 34.32 If I have done evil I will do it no more With holy indignation reject thy former villanies Oh let our souls be raised to a deserved hatred of these great iniquities and let nothing content us but the utter ruine of our ruining sins Let us not be dismai'd at the difficulty attending that blessed work 'T is hard to destroy sin but will it not be harder to be damned for it If it be hard to bear the launching of those ranker'd wounds what will it be to bear the smart of the envenomed arrows of divine justice for ever Know also thou may'st do all things through Christ that strengthens thee then carry thy sins with the solemnity of penitential tears to their eternal funeral And unless this reformaon shall attend thy repentance thou repentest with an absurd contradiction Optima poenitentia est nova vita The best repentance is a new life This is the repentance our hainous sins require and all this is to be done in a more than ordinary way because of the greatness of our sins 3. If sins after deliverance are so great hence see how near judgments may be unto us because the measure of our iniquities will be so suddenly ●illed The patience of H●aven will soon be worn out with these daring provocations As we are heaping up Sin the Almighty is heaping up Wrath and the greater sins the sooner the treasures of wrath will be full The more fuel we bring the sooner the fire will be kindled to consume us The Lord in his mercy is waiting to be gracious backward to judgment but such iniquities will soon waste his patience and provoke his wrath We read Gen. 15.16 that the Lord delayed punishment because the iniquity of the Amorites was not yet full The measure of sin and wrath are often filling many years and according as sins are aggravated judgments approach faster or slower Thus Ioel 3.13 God calls for Sickles to be put in because the harvest was ripe the pressës were full and the fats did overflow
