Humbled and broken-hearted penitent, receive consolation from this history! The same God who forgave Manasseh is ready to forgive thee. Approach him with faith and penitence, and though "thy sins be as crimson," thou shalt obtain the pardon of them all. They are not greater than the atonement that is provided; they do not more loudly demand thy perdition, than the blood of Christ demands thy salvation, if thou flee to it. If all the sins committed since the creation of the world were united in thee, yet if this blood were sprinkled upon thy conscience, it should obtain for thee salvation.
