One Hundred And Ninety Sermons Vol 3 Of 3

Excerpt from One Hundred and Ninety Sermons, Vol. 3 of 3: On the Hundred and Nineteenth Psalm Verse 124. - Deal with thy servant according to thy mercy and teach me thy statutes. In this verse, we have two requests, the one general, the other partien lar; wherein he would have the Lord exercise his mercy to him, Show thy mercy to me, in teaching me thy law.' The one respects the privilege part of religion, the other the duty part. The one concerns time past, or the pardon of sin already committed, Deal with thy servant according to thy mercy; the other, prevention of sin for the time to come, That I may perform my duty for the future, teach me thy statutes. Mercy is the ground of his request; teaching God's law, the matter of it. He would have this gift bestowed on him freely.
