The price hath been paid; the ransom is complete; the satisfaction full and ample. God hath purchased the Church with his own blood: and now, they, who sometime were far off, are made nigh by the blood of Christ. And, having died, He hath opened that deep, clear, costly, and over-flowing fountain, in which sinners wash their robes by faith, and where those robes are made white, in the blood of the Lamb. Come to Him, I beseech you all, on whose consciences lie the load and burden of sin. Are the desires of your souls to God? Do you long for his holiness, complain of your imperfections, and struggle against your corruptions? Come then, and plead the atonement. That salvation, which you could never have wrought out, He, for you, hath alone accomplished.
