resolved to pursue effectually the compassing of this so great a blessing of getting thy soul in a pardoned estate Do but weigh with me the matchless blessedness of such a condition and methinks thy heart should not but be taken with it 1. The first is Peace with God Jesus Christ having made Peace Rom. 5.1 Col. 1.20 2. Consider Pardoned souls become the dear Children of God see Eph. 1.5 c. Having predestinated us unto the Adoption of Children by Jesus Christ unto himself according to the good pleasure of his Will to the praise of the glory of his Grace wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved in whom we have Redemption through his blood the forgiveness of sins c. The glorious grace of Adoption comes in upon the forgiveness of sins therefore Chap. 5.1 the Apostle further hints this so blessed a priviledge Be ye followers of God as dear Children and Gal. 4.5 the Apostle gives it out as the great and blessed fruit of Redemption that we might receive the Adoption of Sons Oh! to be translated from being amongst the children of wrath to be numbered among the dear Children of God to come under the protection care tender love of God as a Father What soul would not be restless till he attain unto it 3. Pardoned souls have access to God Eph. 2.18 12. In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him Heb. 4.16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need This is the blessedness of pardoned souls they have free access to God as a Child to a Father to speak and plead with the Lord As soon as ever they come before the Lord they are admitted into his presence and God's eye and ear is towards them and they have their requests either in kind or a better thing given to them This is another inestimable good of blessed pardoned souls 4. As they are Gods dear Children and have free access to him so when once he hath freely and fully pardoned them he loves them with an infinite unmixt unchangeable Love Behold what manner of love is this c. 1 John 3.1 The Lord doth freely let out love full love to his pardoned ones as if they had never sinned because he never looks upon them out of Christ when God takes a poor sinner to himself he doth not barely and meerly pardon him and save him from wrath and no more as earthly Princes pardon many whom they love not but God sets his Love upon them as it can never enter into his heart to hate them He that loveth me saith Christ shall be loved of my Father Joh. 14.21 And if God afflict them 't is to make them better more like unto himself to bestow more grace upon them Heb. 12.10 and Gods Love to his blessed children is like himself infinite unmixt everlasting This is another infinite blessing of pardoned souls to be thus loved by their God 5. Pardoned souls are brought into a justified state from which they shall never fall Thus runs the tenour of the new Covenant the bottom of all this blessedness I will remember their sins no more Heb. 8.12 No more Words of a sweet and blessed sound to whom they are spoken by the Holy Ghost that when poor souls that have come to Jesus Christ in a Gospel way for pardon and have pleaded and taken hold of promises of grace for that end and yet sometimes unbelief is stirring Oh! will not God one time or other call back to remembrance all my former iniquities and charge them upon me No saith the Lord it shall never enter into my heart I will remember them No More Blessed words and blest condition indeed Ah! who would be without it 6. Pardoned souls shall be kept in the hand of the Lord in all their ways 1 Pet. 1.5 His Love Fear Laws Power Spirit shall be in their hearts that they shall not fall from him Jer. 82.40 And I will make an everlasting Covenant with them that I will not turn away from them to do them good but I will put my fear in their hearts that they shall not depart from me He preserveth the souls of his Saints he keepeth the feet of his Saints Psal 97.10 1 Sam. 2.9 for their good Rom. 1.28 And if they fall the Lord humbles them heals them takes them up again puts new strength into them and his kindness must not depart from them c. 7. Pardoned souls are Gods Heirs Gal. 4.7 Rom. 8.15 c. Heirs of God through Christ and joynt-heirs with Christ Heirs of all his Promises of an incorruptible inheritance that never fadeth away reserved in Heaven for them 1 Pet. 1.9 Though the Lord give them no inheritance of earthly possessions yet they are his special Heirs of the heavenly inheritance Not the poorest believer in the world but may say with a heart full of blessed and humble rejoycing Though I am worthless in my self and am so accounted in the world yet through infinite grace I am one of the richest Heirs in the world a Co-heir with Christ of an exeeeding eternal weight of glory Vse 1. If such and more than is or can be named be the blessedness of pardoned souls Ah! what poor secure sinner that must also be everlastingly damned without it would miss of it Say sinner instead of being cursed hated damned and that for ever for as is mercy and love to pardoned ones so is to such as miss of it for ever I say instead of that which any heart but what is plagued with hardness would melt and tremble at to become a dear child of God and have free access to God be loved of God for ever justified no sin for ever remembred against thee every thing befall thee for good and be an Heir of God and be even as blessed as God can make thee and that for ever Ah! where 's the sinner that would be without this Who would slight that word of the Lord that would teach you and lead you to this blessedness Who would despise or neglect the day of grace now while within the reach of it who would run a dreadful hazard of being given up of God if you thus trifle with Gospel-salvation Ah! the good Lord pity you that do thus you are fit to be mourned over had we hearts to do it with tears of blood Yet once more Awake awake you careless ones before your bodies drop into the grave and souls into hell Oh! do not do not take pleasure in soul-murder do not put off the one only main necessary work and leave it undone till it may be impossible to have it done Tell me in good earnest canst thou well be without the pardon of thy sins here and for ever Soul thou may'st well enough be without much Land and much Money and many great friends and yet be well exceeding well contented nay better if

rather do a thing himself than be beholding to another therefore upon Conviction of guilt he sets himself to make up the breach to satisfie God by some attonement or other that his own heart can contrive his sorrowing and repenting he hopes may pacifie God or some new sacrifice of more performances or being better for the time to come Thus the heart works secretly and upon his own account God letting forth some mercy as he thinks where he fails he hopes to make up any breach that sin hath made between God and his soul and thus he is still upon the Old Covenant under the law 3. A Sinner is more apt to keep to the Law than go to Christ from a secret pride of heart he would not be found at a total loss with God to be wholly undone and unable to do any thing towards his own peace and salvation A soul naturally had rather part with all sin and have his nature made perfectly holy than be quite undone in himself and come to have all his righteousness in another in Jesus Christ And here it is that most souls stick in the coming off their own bottoms to be justified in Jesus Christ In a word Man had rather do any thing than come a poor destitute sinner to Jesus Christ for all 4. Because 't is not suitable to the Light of natural reason that a soul should satisfie God or become righteous any other way than by his own endeavour to be righteous in another is of Divine Revelation which till a Soul hath he cannot let go the principle of self-justification The next thing to be considered will be this if all men are under the Law and the curse of it under the guilt of the whole law without all excuse before God under an impossibility of attaining righteousness or acceptance with God by the best keeping of the Law and yet a natural and strong aptitude to rest upon the law and that a soul may reform and take up be strict in obedience and yet still be under the law how then may a soul know whether in the way of his Obedience he be yet under the Law and not under Grace Some Discoveries I shall lay down at present resolving a fuller discussion of this And by the way know and consider that though thou art under the the profession of the Name of Jesus Christ and pretendest Salvation by him yet practically and really thou may'st be still under the Law 1. If thou hast never been convinc'd of this close evil in thy heart of resting on thy praying and repenting and endeavouring to keep the Law as well as thou canst I say if the Spirit of the Lord hath not convinced thee of it and of the great danger of it and so humbled thee and brought thee off it thou art certainly under the Law as yet 2. If thou dost not watch against this evil and dost not find a great difficulty not to rest upon a performance of any duty to God thou dost then certainly rest upon it 3. If thou art well satisfied that thou art kept from outward gross sins and the sin of thy 〈◊〉 is not thy greatest burthen mourning under the weight of it then thou must know that thou art yet under the law 4. If thou thinkest God will accept of the will for the deed if thou dost as well as thou canst in every duty so as to accept thee thereby as if it had been done perfectly this also bespeaks thee under the Law 5. If thou canst not experience how the Lord by the light and working of his word and spirit hath brought thee off thy legal foundation thou wast building upon and shew'd thee that such things as thou didst account gain became but loss unto thee for Jesus Christ Phil. 3.7 6. If thou art not troubled about the Hypocrisie of thy heart and not abased for it even in thy best performances then thou art yet upon the bottom of the Law and restest in it 7. If thou art not mostly troubled about believing and dost not find it the most difficult work of thy soul if no complaint to God of an unbelieving heart then thou art indeed a Hypocrite and under the Law 8. If thou art not humbled to God for the sinful mixtures of thy duties the deadness distraction of them and so seest thy acceptance cannot be in them but in Jesus Christ then thou restest in them 9. If thou dost not give up thy self to the leadings of the Spirit and doest not find that in the main of thy course thou art led by the Spirit then thou art under the Law Gal. 3.18 But if ye are led by the spirit ye are not under the Law 10. If thou art not troubled about thy inward growth in mortification of all sin and more holy Communion with God then thou art also under the Law One under the Law that is somewhat strict and conscientious may grow in the bulk of outward Duties but not in inward Holiness 11. If thy care be not to live in the sense of thy Justification by grace through Jesus Christ and to preserve the light and peace of a justified state which thou hast been called to by grace then thou livest in self-justification 12. If thy great care be not if thou findest it not thy greatest difficulty to be kept a poor empty creature in thy self and live in the fulness of Christ if self-fulness self-exaltation be not the great evils thou watchest against at least in some measure thou art sensible of the roots of them then thou art yet under all I have been proving the law guilt and a curse and all thy duties and doings as I have shew'd abhorred of God Examine thy heart by these particulars over and over and if by these thou canst not make out that thou hast been through rich grace brought off from thy own foundation upon the law and so come with much difficulty to the Gospel-grace and righteousness by Jesus Christ and that if thou hadst been let alone in peace in thy former state thou hadst been certainly damned sure thou art then as yet void of any interest in the Gospel saving righteousness thy pretended faith and hope and duties and works and conscience all 's in vain Now the soul that hath the blessed experience of all these and can say I have through infinite mercy been brought off my own foundation and I have found the difficulty of it I find my heart apt to settle upon my own performances and 't is that I would watch against and I can experience the sin of my Nature the greatest burthen and cry out of it daily before the Lord the Hypocrisie of my heart is an abhorring to me I do find believing the hardest work of my soul I do mourn under the sinful mixture of my duties I do give up my self to the spirits leadings I am troubled about my inward growth and humbled for the shortness of it I would learn more and
Reasons of the Design of the Blessed God in this may be gathered from the Scriptures The Free-grace of God is the Fountain of all in any sinners salvation 1. Because There is nothing in the Creature that may move God to save him Nothing at all all we know or do could not move God to mercy Deut. 7.7 8. The Lord did not set his love upon you because you were more in number than any people but because he freely loved you c. Not for your sake do I do this c. Ezek. 36.32 2. As God saw nothing in him so the sinner is able to bring nothing to God to draw out mercy of his own therefore saith the Lord Isa 55.1 let him come without his price As the sinner lost all his good so he can procure none anew to bring to God that may in the least move the heart of God to give out more to him 3. If it were not all of Grace then the Creature would have occasion of boasting but the Lord in infinite wisdom so laid the Project of a sinners Salvation that no Creature should have the least ground of boasting So the Apostle having given out the Doctrine of Grace in this Scripture we are upon draws this conclusion ver 27. Where is boasting then It is excluded c. So in the 1 Cor. 1.29 the Holy Ghost lays down this as the main scope of God in the Gospel That No flesh should glory in his presence Therefore Salvation is all of Grace of Free-grace 4. If it were not so The glory of God would not be so great in the Salvation of a sinner 'T is now so laid that all might be to the praise of the glory of his Grace Ephes 1.6 It being the highest piece of glory that the Wise and Blessed God did ever design unto himself that his free rich abundant infinite grace might be made known in the Salvation of a Sinner That he might make known the riches of his glory on the Vessels of Mercy which he had afore prepared unto glory Rom. 9.23 Vse 1. If God's Free-grace be the Fountain of all in a poor Sinners Salvation then let it establish our judgments in this Doctrine Therefore God had no respect to any fore-sight of Faith or Works in the Creature God had no respect to the freeness of his Will for he knew he had none God had no respect to any conditions to be wrought in us but all he did and doth was from absolute Independing Grace Nothing moved him but his own Free-grace The same Free-grace that pardons gives and works all in us all from the same Fountain 2. If all be of Free-grace then there is no meritorious procuring Cause in us that moves the Lord to mercy Now the contrary is naturally rooted in our hearts poor Souls are most apt to conceive that if they can grieve for their sins repent and reform this will sure move God to mercy and pardon A most dangerous snare from which a Soul after much conviction is hardly wrought off Now though God in the way of a sinners Salvation hath promised to give Repentance Act. 5.31 and a Spirit of mourning for sin Yet a poor soul must take heed that he make not this a procuring cause of Pardon Many a Soul sticks here before emptied of himself even of his very repenting and so come for grace and mercy upon the account of the Free-promise only How many a Sinner might have been saved if he would have been saved freely 3. If God hath so laid the Design to save a Sinner freely then how great how just is the Condemnation of guilty sinners that will not hasten in unto it how could the Lord have laid it more freely than he hath Oh that any sinner for ever condemned to Hell without it should withstand it Why sinner Shall the blessed God that might have much glory in condemning thee to all Eternity be willing to save thee freely and wilt thou not come and bow unto him and accept of it All the contempt of God in all his holy Commands is not like this to turn the back upon Free-Mercy Free-Salvation This will be the Worm that never dies to any of your Souls that shall not come into and rightly accept of Gospel-Salvation that you might have been saved freely have had grace remission of sins Jesus Christ the Spirit Eternal Life freely and yet turned your backs upon it But you may demand How is it that any sinner doth so What is it that causeth any Soul to forego Free-grace and Mercy when held out unto him that we may beware of such hinderances I will therefore shew you such Hinderances that keep Souls from accepting of God's Free-grace in Jesus Christ when held out unto them 1. Wilful Obstinacy Joh. 5.40 Ye will not come unto me that you might have life Ye will not such is the stubborness and rebellion of the heart of a sinner that he will not as we speak because he will not to such a height hath sin raised the heart of the rebellious children of men for every natural man till made sensible of unbelief thinks he hath power of himself though he hath not but his Rebellion lies in his Will I would have gathered you and you would not Mat. 33. last 2. A sinner doth not accept of Free-grace because he stands upon his self-justification he will not be perswaded he hath so much need of all Free-grace as the Gospel discovers as hath been shewed at large though he hath sinned yet also he hath obeyed and so he puts one against the other his obedience against his sin and so hopes to get that mercy he hath need of And upon this ground more sinners even that profess the Name of God do miss of Heaven than any other in the World 'T is not so easie a matter to submit to God's Free-grace alone as many do imagine Upon this Snare many of the Jewish Professors of Christ fell short as 't is clear from the Epistle to the Galathians and did frustrate the grace of God 3. A Sinner hath a secret thought of making God satisfaction by his sorrow and amendment and so makes void the Free-grace of God 'T is the easiest thing in the World to put up legal sorrow and amendment of life to God as that which may make God amends yea to make an attonement of every Duty which is the closest and most desperate evil of the heart So did the Jew by his sacrifices and obedience which caused the Lord to pronounce them That his soul loathed them Isa 1. 4. A Sinner doth not savingly close with free grace from secret pride of heart he would not be found so poor and helpless so unrighteous and ungracious as to be beholden to free mercy for all many persons will rather starve than beg than live upon another mans mercy 'T is so between a sinner and the Lord till God humble him he 'd rather venture Hell than come and
and thence concludeth ver 14. How much more shall the blood of Christ purge the Conscience c. A much more upon that above all the Sacrifices that were offered up to God which will appear 1. Because of the eternal Godhead of Christ's Person by which he offer'd up his blood unto his Father Heb. 9.14 Who through the eternal Spirit offered up himself without spot to God Which put an infinite value and efficacy upon the offering of his blood inasmuch as Jesus Christ was God as well as Man though he could only dye in his humane nature yet the efficacy of his Godhead had an influence upon the price of his dying which put an infinite worth upon it and so renders it full and perfect Redemption 2. The price of the blood of Jesus Christ did not only give a bare Satisfaction to the justice of God but it had an infinite Merit in it a redundancy of Merit whereby it deserved at the hands of God that Sinners that are interessed in it should have remission of Sins grace the love of God and glory to come spiritual blessings which the death of Christ purchased for the elect which being also by the free purpose and compact of God there must necessarily arise an infinite Merit in it 3. The All-sufficiency of the price of Christ's blood is evidenced by his Resurrection and Ascension into Glory implying that he wrought forth full and perfect Redemption by his Death therefore he is said to rise again for our Justification Rom. 4. last and to be justified in the spirit 1 Tim. 3. last that is God by raising him from the dead justified him in the attonement he had made by his Death and that he did chearfully accept of satisfaction by it 4. The Blood of Christ procures boldness of access to God therefore there is an infinite worth in the price of it Heb. 10.19 Having therefore Brethren Boldness to enter into the Holiest by the blood of Jesus which boldness doth arise from the full satisfaction that is made to Divine Justice in as much as God upon the Acceptance of it hath nothing to charge upon the Sinner himself no quarrel against him having charged his sins upon Christ and therefore the poor sinner may come with an humble boldness into the Presence of God and this is that which puts boldness into the Conscience of a Believer when he appears before God 5. From the Experience of it the soulest Sinners that have come unto it have been washed from their sins by it as 1 Cor. 6.11 Idolaters Adulterers Sodomites Drunkards Revilers have been washed and justified and sanctified by it The blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth from all sin 1 John 1.7 6. It cleanseth and perfects them for ever therefore called eternal Redemption once for all and for ever Heb. 10.10 19. For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified once justified and for ever Now from this Satisfaction Merit All-sufficiency of the Sacrifice of the blood of Jesus to cleanse a sinner to commend him to God how safely may a sinner venture his Soul upon it which is the first act of Faith A poor sinner when under conviction and the terror of the Lord hath taken hold of him lies trembling before the Lord whether God will let out Justice or Mercy upon him he is ready to give glory to the justice of the Lord if he reject him for ever But now if a poor soul get a sight of the blood of Christ how it deals with the justice of God what full and all-sufficient Satisfaction it hath made to God for the sins of such as plead it to him how God more delights in it than in the condemning of the sinner what a stay is this to the wavering doubtful spirit of a poor sinner when he can come to see justice to have its due and so God can freely let out Remission to a poor Soul upon the very first Act of a poor sinners closing with it though not presently evidenced in his Conscience Oh sinner venture the Issue of all upon this price of the Blood of Jesus thou may'st see thou hast the greatest reason in the world to do so thou wilt never come to have a safe bottom for thy Soul till thou comest thus to deal with the justice of God as fully satisfied by the blood of Jesus Christ thou wilt still be off and on about Free-Mercy till thou come to fix here and be in some good measure established in it Be daily in exercising thy Soul in such ventures and castings upon it and the Spirit will at last witness Peace and Reconciliation to thy Conscience In a word Sinners you that have had no stay to your spirits for the forgiveness of your sins but a blind hope of Mercy look up look up to the justice of God and see this way of access to God for you by the blood of Jesus Oh! let not any prophane sinner trample it under foot cast it back upon the blessed face of God say not in thy heart Let God take the blood of his Son to himself I 'le not be washed from my Sins I 'le not be sanctified I 'le rest as I am Desperate Sinner of how much sorer punishment shalt thou be thought worthy than any Sinner under Heaven who rejectest the only worthy price of a Sinners Salvation Know the great God will let out all his justice upon thee to the utmost and Oceans of his Wrath shall fall upon thee if thou thus abuse the blood of his Son a greater guilt than all thy Ungodliness thou hast hitherto been wallowing in from thy youth up Oh! come thou despiser and cast thy soul under the droppings of this blood and it shall cleanse thee though thy soul were as black as Hell Zach. 13.1 And thou poor formal out-side Professor who never didst feel the vertue healing life and warmth of the blood of Christ upon thy heart Oh rest not in good thoughts of it only but come believingly to it as thou hast been exhorted Say and that with thy heart Now Lord I would know the power and efficacy of this Redemption upon my poor soul Wash me Lord wash me I renounce all but the blood of this Christ as to making way to God for me Oh! let it pacifie my Conscience and purge my Conscience and I shall be clean If the Spirit of the Lord shall work thy heart to come as a guilty helpless unholy sinner in thy self to this blood of Jesus and make thy approaches to God daily and argue for Grace and Remission upon it and purging thy Soul these inestimable blessings will be the issue of it which I will but name to thee 1. Thou shalt certainly find forgiveness of thy sins In whom we have Redemption through his blood the forgiveness of our sins Ephes 1.7 God will remember them no more against thee and thou shalt have peace with thy God for ever 2. God will let forth
