Come unto me says he, all ye that labor, and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. And him that cometh to me, I will in no wise cast out. The promise you see, is to all that go to Christ; he declares he will not cast them out, therefore he will receive them graciously, and love them freely. It is not the number, nor the greatness of sins that stand between Christ and the sinner, but the love of sin, and want of reliance upon him. You are now confessing and forsaking, therefore you shall find mercy. Pardon belongs to you, though you have been guilty of all manner of sin, and even of blasphemy.
