public_a to_o his_o glory_n his_o glory_n it_o be_v to_o pass_v by_o transgression_n it_o be_v a_o great_a glory_n to_o pass_v by_o many_o transgression_n if_o it_o be_v his_o peculiar_a glory_n to_o

that_o be_v as_o much_o as_o for_o his_o mercy_n for_o god_n promise_n be_v promise_n of_o mercy_n so_o all_o agree_v in_o this_o for_o my_o name_n sake_n it_o be_v a_o name_n of_o mercy_n for_o my_o

satisfaction_n peter_n can_v not_o go_v in_o that_o name_n our_o bless_a saviour_n have_v teach_v we_o therefore_o so_o to_o pray_v forgive_v we_o our_o trespass_n he_o teach_v we_o not_o to_o pray_v as_o the_o servant_n in_o the_o gospel_n have_v patience_n with_o i_o and_o i_o will_v pay_v thou_o all_o lord_n be_v favourable_a a_o little_a long_o lend_v i_o a_o little_a life_n and_o i_o will_v

full_a soul_n look_v to_o god_n in_o no_o creature_n be_v capable_a of_o merit_n therefore_o let_v man_n never_o trouble_v themselves_o with_o the_o discussion_n of_o that_o it_o be_v so_o repugnant_a that_o the_o angel_n though_o they_o never_o sin_v can_v merit_v they_o do_v but_o their_o duty_n adam_n in_o integrity_n can_v not_o merit_v if_o innocency_n can_v merit_v sin_n can_v if_o the_o

need_n of_o receive_v we_o merciful_o favourable_o receive_v we_o to_o thy_o grace_n in_o that_o i_o show_v you_o the_o reason_n why_o it_o be_v annex_v to_o the_o former_a part_n as_o a_o clause_n of_o illustration_n show_v thyself_o gracious_a by_o pardon_v our_o sin_n as_o a_o clause_n of_o inducement_n we_o entreat_v thou_o for_o the_o goodness_n of_o thy_o grace_n and_o mercy_n to_o show_v thyself_o so_o in_o pardon_v our_o sin_n we_o come_v to_o god_n for_o grace_n in_o the_o name_n of_o grace_n and_o for_o mercy_n in_o the_o name_n of_o mercy_n three_o as_o a_o clause_n that_o make_v up_o a_o perfect_a ennumeration_n of_o all_o want_n that_o be_v comprise_v under_o these_o two_o head_n take_v away_o iniquity_n and_o receive_v we_o gracious_o thus_o sarr_o i_o go_v that_o that_o remain_v in_o the_o second_o part_n be_v only_o the_o order_n of_o these_o two_o particular_n for_o there_o be_v some_o reason_n why_o the_o prophet_n set_v they_o in_o this_o order_n why_o not_o first_o receive_v we_o gracious_o and_o then_o take_v away_o iniquity_n for_o all_o other_o blessing_n be_v originate_v in_o the_o love_n and_o favour_n of_o god_n it_o be_v from_o his_o love_n and_o grace_n that_o he_o grant_v pardon_n to_o we_o of_o our_o transgression_n there_o be_v no_o pardon_n of_o sin_n where_o there_o be_v not_o grace_n and_o favour_n and_o love_n therefore_o the_o psalmist_n psal_n 85._o he_o set_v they_o in_o another_o order_n o_o lord_n thou_o have_v be_v gracious_a to_o the_o land_n and_o then_o follow_v in_o verse_n 2._o thou_o have_v forgive_v the_o iniquity_n of_o thy_o people_n first_o god_n be_v gracious_a and_o then_o he_o forgive_v iniquity_n the_o pardon_n of_o sin_n must_v flow_v from_o his_o grace_n and_o favour_n it_o be_v true_a the_o love_n of_o god_n must_v of_o necessity_n go_v before_o in_o the_o order_n of_o nature_n all_o the_o effect_n of_o his_o love_n and_o favour_n whatsoever_o the_o cause_n must_v be_v before_o the_o effect_n and_o the_o fountain_n before_o the_o stream_n in_o nature_n but_o yet_o the_o scripture_n use_v some_o difference_n of_o set_v down_o these_o particular_n for_o sometime_o it_o set_v the_o one_o before_o and_o sometime_o the_o other_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o they_o be_v mutual_o enfold_v and_o so_o close_o knit_v that_o one_o can_v be_v without_o the_o other_o there_o be_v no_o great_a demonstration_n of_o god_n grace_n and_o favour_n than_o the_o pardon_n of_o sin_n if_o there_o be_v grace_n and_o favour_n there_o will_v be_v forgiveness_n where_o there_o be_v forgiveness_n there_o be_v a_o evident_a testimony_n that_o god_n have_v show_v the_o riches_n of_o his_o grace_n therefore_o though_o the_o prophet_n set_v it_o here_o in_o another_o order_n than_o sometime_o it_o be_v in_o scripture_n there_o be_v good_a reason_n for_o it_o beside_o that_o there_o may_v be_v three_o thing_n say_v for_o the_o justification_n of_o this_o order_n there_o be_v three_o reason_n of_o it_o either_o as_o they_o contain_v in_o they_o a_o petition_n for_o the_o enlargement_n of_o the_o continuance_n of_o grace_n or_o for_o the_o enlargement_n of_o the_o evidence_n and_o demonstration_n of_o grace_n or_o a_o petition_n for_o the_o enlargement_n of_o the_o communication_n of_o his_o grace_n to_o they_o in_o all_o these_o 3._o sense_n the_o order_n be_v every_o way_n justifiable_a first_o in_o put_v these_o two_o together_o there_o be_v a_o petition_n for_o the_o inlargment_n of_o the_o continuance_n of_o god_n grace_n take_v away_o iniquity_n and_o receive_v we_o gracious_o in_o these_o two_o he_o pray_v for_o the_o give_v of_o grace_n and_o the_o duration_n and_o perpetuation_n of_o it_o so_o the_o order_n be_v thus_o grace_n can_v be_v continue_v till_o it_o be_v bestow_v and_o give_v in_o the_o first_o word_n he_o pray_v for_o the_o give_v of_o it_o that_o god_n will_v receive_v they_o to_o a_o state_n of_o reconciliation_n in_o the_o second_o that_o he_o will_v continue_v they_o and_o keep_v they_o in_o that_o estate_n show_v thyself_o first_o gracious_a in_o pardon_v our_o sin_n and_o show_v thyself_o again_o gracious_a in_o keep_v we_o from_o commit_v sin_n what_o profit_v it_o though_o our_o former_a sin_n be_v pardon_v if_o we_o continue_v in_o they_o therefore_o the_o prophet_n teach_v they_o to_o beg_v not_o only_o for_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n but_o for_o strengthen_v of_o grace_n to_o continue_v in_o it_o to_o show_v that_o apenitent_a faithful_a soul_n stand_v in_o need_n of_o god_n after_o his_o sin_n be_v pardon_v we_o have_v not_o do_v with_o god_n when_o our_o sin_n be_v pardon_v we_o need_v a_o further_a enlargement_n of_o grace_n to_o keep_v we_o in_o that_o estate_n lest_o we_o relapse_n therefore_o the_o believe_v soul_n make_v up_o his_o prayer_n of_o these_o two_o lord_n thou_o have_v be_v gracious_a and_o i_o rely_v upon_o thou_o for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v that_o thou_o will_v still_o the_o point_n be_v this_o that_o the_o faithful_a soul_n after_o it_o have_v have_v a_o taste_n of_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n in_o the_o pardon_n of_o sin_n it_o rest_v not_o there_o but_o go_v on_o still_o to_o beg_v more_o grace_n a_o great_a enlargement_n of_o favour_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v so_o in_o the_o order_n of_o our_o desire_n grace_n be_v of_o a_o ravish_a nature_n when_o it_o possess_v the_o heart_n it_o inflame_v it_o even_o in_o heaven_n where_o grace_n be_v full_a there_o be_v a_o appetite_n of_o complacency_n for_o desire_n of_o the_o continuance_n of_o that_o grace_n and_o favour_n though_o there_o can_v be_v a_o desire_n of_o more_o where_o the_o vessel_n be_v full_a but_o in_o earth_n where_o grace_n be_v pour_v in_o by_o drop_n there_o be_v a_o appetite_n of_o desire_n because_o there_o be_v want_v continual_o and_o we_o never_o have_v grace_n but_o that_o we_o see_v we_o want_v more_o than_o a_o man_n love_v grace_v more_o when_o god_n power_v in_o more_o and_o he_o think_v he_o want_v more_o it_o be_v the_o order_n in_o god_n proceed_v he_o lay_v this_o method_n he_o give_v his_o spirit_n for_o this_o purpose_n not_o only_o to_o cleanse_v we_o from_o sin_n but_o to_o strengthen_v we_o for_o new_a obedience_n not_o only_o to_o seal_v to_o we_o our_o reconciliation_n for_o the_o present_a but_o to_o keep_v we_o for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v and_o both_o these_o be_v the_o free_a gift_n and_o work_v of_o god_n spirit_n it_o be_v his_o spirit_n that_o seal_v to_o we_o pardon_n and_o it_o be_v his_o spirit_n that_o strengthen_v we_o that_o we_o may_v
