The divine order then is first pardon, then holiness; first peace with God, and then conformity to the image of that God with whom we have been brought to be at peace. For as likeness to God is produced by beholding His glory, and as we cannot look upon Him until we know that He has ceased to condemn us, and as we cannot trust Him until we know that He is gracious; so we cannot be transformed into His image until we have received pardon at His hands.
