Hebrews8:12

12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousnesses , and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more .

This For states the cause of all the former Acts promised in the Gospel-Covenant, as Regenerating, Illuminating, Adopting, and God's gracious removing all Sins that might hinder the communication of these, and all other Good to his Covenanted-ones, God in and by the Administration of this Covenant, ratified by his Blood, propitiating him, will of his free Mercy pardon, blot out, and take away, chap. 2.17. and thereby free them from the Guilt, Power, and Punishment of their original and actual unrighteousness, implying his reconciliation to, and free acceptance of their persons in Jesus Christ, on whose account it is he dealeth so graciously with them in all things, 1 Iohn 4.9. Isa. 55.7, 8, 9.

All the breaches of God's Law by Commissions or Omissions, whatever they may be for number or for aggravation; he will always through Christ save his Covenanted-ones from them all, Matth. 1.21. Rom. 3.21, to 27. All of these shall not only be for the present blo[illegible: 2 letters]ed out▪ but his Mercy will be so great and certain through Christ, that he will neither punish them for them, nor charge them to them, he will abundantly pardon, and for ever take them away, so as if they be sought for, they shall not be found, chap. 10.3, 14. Isa. 43.25. Micah 7.18, 19. And when he forgets their Sins, he will have their Persons in everlasting remembrance, Psal. 112.6.
