Psalms69:5
1. God's knowledge of sin is an inducement to repent.
(a) Because it is foolish to endeavour to hide any sin from him.
(b) Because it is impossible to confess all our sin to him.
2. It is an encouragement to hope for pardon.
(a) Because, in the full knowledge of sin, he has declared himself to be merciful and ready to forgive.
(b) Because he has made provision for pardon, not according to our knowledge of sin, but his own.
Verses 8-9.
1. A grievous trial.
2. An honourable reason for it: for Christ's sake.
3. Consoling supports under it.
