Thomas Watson


"It is a vain thing for me, says the sinner, to set upon repentance; my sins are of that magnitude that there is no hope for me"..."Our sins are mountains, and how shall these ever be cast into the sea? Where unbelief represents sin in its bloody colours and God in his judge's robes, the soul would sooner fly from him than to him. This is dangerous. Other sins need mercy, but despair rejects mercy"..."Why should we entertain such hard thoughts of God? He has bowels of love to repenting sinners (Joel 2:13)"..."God's anger is not so hot but mercy can cool it, nor so sharp but mercy can sweeten it. God counts his mercy his glory (Exod. 33:18-19)
