Deuteronomy 30
SIBREFLECTIONS UPON CHAP. XXX. –In returning to the Lord, and resting in the sun must be saved. Our gracious God is always ready, not only to receive repenting prodigals, but to qualify them with faith and repentance. And is the happiness and honour that is to be found in fellowship with a recover God. The future return of the Jewish nation to the Lord shall be a desi and glorious season to them; and even to us Gentiles it will be as life the dead; we shall share and rejoice in their mercies. God’s manifestation is special love, and his renovation of our heart, shall qualify and induce us to all holy obedience. We shall run in the way of his commandments he shall enlarge our heart. But now let us consider how great a mercy it is that the laws and the gospel of Christ are set before us in so plain, affecting, and applicable a manner. And, since eternal life is so exhibited, so offered to, or urged upon us, God forbid that we should entail redoubled damnation on ourselves by a contemptuous rejection of it. Not Moses, but Jesus, sets before us life and good.—Let us see that we refuse not him that speaketh from heaven
