hirdly,
The
third falfe
ground that
others
apprehend
their
fins
are
pardoned
is
this,becaufe the
guilt
of
them
does
not
lie up-
on
their
Corfciences
;
they think
they
are not guilty
of
their
fins, and fay,
they
were committed
a
great
while
ago,
and
a
long
time
hath
paff, and
they heard
not
of
them
;
and
there-

they

they

Do
not
deceive
your
(elves
in
this, for
the
fins
that
you
have-
committed
twenty, forty, or
fixty years
ago,
though thou
never

fince, it
is
no
argument that they are
pardoned
;
for
they
may
be

In
the
day
when
I
vifit,
I
will
vifit
their
fin
opon
them
:
God
has
his
day,
and.perhaps
his
day
is
not
come to
vifit
;
and
therefore thou
thinkeft thou
art
difcharged,
becaufe
the day
of
Gods
Vi-
fitation
is
not come to
thee. And
Secondly, know
further
,
that
though thy
fins
were
committed
a
great
while fince,
yet
in regard of
Gods Eternity,
they are
to
him
as
if they
were
committed
this
morning
before
thou
cameft to
the
Affembly
;
although
you committed them
forty
or
fifty
years
ago
,
yet
to
God
they
are
but
as
a
fin
committed
yefterday;
it
may
be
you think
your
Confciences would
fly in
your
faces,
if
you
were drunk
yefternight,
and
fhould
come
to
the Sacrament
this
morning
;
and
certainly he
muff be a
defperate wretch
,
a
monffrous
notorious
villain,
that
fhould
dare to
come
to
the Sacrament
this
morning that
was
