Reasons three Because he finds that   1 The presence of other evils will not hinder him in his spiritual estate 615 2 The presence of sin alone poysons all good things to him 616 3 The removal of this would set open the flood-gates of mercy 617 Uses two hence   1 See the reason why most men prize not Salvation because never broken-hearted ibid 2 Reproof to   1 Secure sinners 618 2 〈◊〉 Professors ibid. DOCT. 17. True Contrition is accompanied with Confession of sin when God calls thereunto 619 For Explication three things   1 When a sinner is called to Confession 619 1 Publick sins must be publickly confessed 621 2 Private sins to the persons wronged 624 3 Secret sins 625 1 If a man hath confessed them to God and he hath pardoned he need not should not confess them to men 626 2 If the Lord deny pardon and power then he calls him to confess unto man 628 3 In case restitution cannot otherwise be made he must confess to man 629 2 When is Confession serious and hearty 630 1 When it is free that is when a man is   1 Easie to be convinced ibid. 2 Ready to acknowledg 633 3 And takes the evil to himself 636 2 When it is full and that in regard of ibid. 1 Relating sins as they are 638 2 The opposition of the heart against them 639 3 When it leaves the sinner base in his own eyes 640 4 When he intends to take advantage against himself and his sin by it ibid. 3 How doth Contrition bring in this Confession 641 It causeth a man   1 To see the danger of sin ibid. 2 To feel the bitterness of it 643 3 To be ashamed of himself and sin 645 Uses four hence   1 Instruction See the reason of sinful turnings and windings to hide sin 646 2 Reproof to such as think it weakness and baseness thus to confess a mans sins 647 3 Tryal whether a man hath been brought to this frame of spirit thus to confess sin when called thereunto 650 It discovers the falsness of four sorts   1 Such as out of hardness of heart and custom are without all sence of sin 651 2 Such as instead of bearing the shame of their sins cast shame upon the Truth that discovers sin 652 3 Such as seek for shameful hidings to cover sin 653 4 Such as repent of their Confessions 654 How to know we are content to take shame for sin by a right Confession of it 655 1 He opposeth not the Truth that discovers his sin and shame ibid. 2 He is not offended with the man that is the Instrument 656 3 He is not disquieted in the bearing of it 636 4 He will not chuse unlawful means to be rid of it 665 4 Exhortation to attend the duty of Confession when thou art called thereunto ibid.

DOCT. 18. The soul that is pierced for sin is carried with a restless dislike against it and separation from it 670 Branch 1. Detestation or hatred of sin Concerning which for Explication two things 672 1 What is the Nature of this hatred of sin here in Contrition discovered in six Conclusions 673 1 As Adam and all his departed from God so Christ brings back all his to God in a contrary way 673 2 There is nothing in the soul can turn it from sin 674 3 This first aversion from sin is not wrought by any habit of Grace put into the soul. ibid. Reasons two Because   1 Gracious habits cannot act before they have being in the soul as the subject of them 675 2 The soul in its natural estate is uncapable of receiving the habit of Grace ibid. 4 Yet the Spirit puts forth its power upon the soul to turn it from sin to God ibid. 5 Christ as the Head of the Covenant takes away the Commission that sin and Satan had to hold the soul. 676 6 The soul in the Nature of it being forced to find sin bitter is loosened from it and so becomes subject to the power of the Spirit turning of it from sin to God 677 2 How this hatred may be discerned 680 1 It is attended with a continual fear of the deadly infection of sin ibid. 2 It seeks the destruction of sin Hence 684 1 He opposeth sin most in himself ibid. 1 He doth what he can against it 685 2 He seeks help from God in Christ. 686 2 He seeks the removal of it in others where-ever he finds it 688 3 It admits no terms of agreement 689 Reasons three Because   1 Without this there is no room for faith 690 2 Without this no expectation of Salvation from Christ. ibid. 3 Sin is the only enemy of the Soul 691 Uses two hence 1 Humiliation that there are so few in the world that know what this hatred against sin means ibid. 2 Tryal discovering such as never had this hatred against sin wrought were never contrite As ibid. 1 Careless fearless Professors 693 2 Neuters in Religion 696 3 Lazy Hypocrites 697 4 Treacherous Hypocrites 698 Branch 2. Sequestration from sin   Which discovers it self in two things   1 No allurements can entice 700 2 Nor miseries force the soul to former sins ibid. Uses two hence   1 Instruction See the reason of all revolts and backslidings want of this separation 701 2 Exhortation to seek to the Lord that he would work this in us ibid.
