You have heard much of late of the excellency of Christ, and his ability and readiness to save sinners. The terms on which pardon and life are to be obtained have been fairly proposed, and you have been most earnestly entreated to become reconciled to God.—Do you not heartily believe in, and love this almighty and most compassionate Saviour? Do you not ardently desire to be with him in Paradise after you leave this world? If you will, like the thief on the cross, cordially accept of Christ, you will obtain mercy, though it should be on this very day of execution. He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life, and though he should be called out of the world instantly, shall not fail of the possession of it.
