Ezekiel36:25

25 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean : from all your filthiness and from all your Idols will I cleanse you.

He alludes to the sprinklings under the Law, perhaps to that Num. 19.9. which was for purification of sin; and 19, 20. verses. So God will purifie them from their guilt.

Some think it may refer to Baptismal water, if so, 'tis to the blood of Christ, signified by it, and this, say best Expositors, is here intended, and this is the blood of sprinkling Heb. 12.24.

When Sin is remitted, the Person is indeed clean, both in account of God and Christ.

Tho' they have been many of all sorts, and among all ranks of men, yet multitude of sins shall not hinder me from pardoning.

That notorious great Abomination, your multiply'd Idolatry, I will pardon that also that ye may be clean. Thus Remission of Sin is promised.
