Although Repentance be not to be rested in, as any satisfaction for sin, or any cause of the pardon thereof, which is the act of Gods free grace in Christ; yet is it of such necessity to all sinners, that none may expect pardon without it.
As every man is bound to make private confession of his sins to God, praying for the pardon thereof; upon which, and the forsaking of them, he shall finde mercy: so, he that scandalizeth his Brother, or the Church of Christ, ought to be willing by a private or publique confession, and sorrow for his sin, to declare his repentance to those that are offended, who are thereupon to be reconciled to him, and in love to receive him.
