“Forsaking our own mercies.” How are they our own? Not ours in possession, for we are forsaking them, but they are our own mercies that we have a right to—mercies freely offered to us of God in Christ Jesus, in his blessed gospel. It is thus your own Christ that you neglect. He is in this sense your own in the free offer of God; your own Saviour, the Christ whom God is holding forth and giving in his gospel to you.
