[ 637] True Repentance will not admit of any sin.

I Came,* 1.1 saies Nehemiah, to Jerusalem, and understood of the evil that Eliashib had done for Tobiah, in preparing for him a Chamber in the Courts of the house of God, and it gr••eved me sore: but he rests not there, but goes further; Therefore I cast forth all the houshold-stuffe of Tobiah out of the Chamber.* 1.2 What should Tobiah do with a Chamber there? therefore he not only outs Tobiah but out goes all his stuffe too; Thus doth Repentance, when it considers all the evil, that Satan and corruption have done, that they have taken Chambers in the heart, that should be the house of God, it is grieved sore, and thereupon it outs Satan and all his stuffe, neither he, nor any of his Retinew shall be housed there any longer, not any one sin shall find the least entertainment.
