Sin Unremembered
Lamentations 1:9
Her filthiness is in her skirts; she remembers not her last end; therefore she came down wonderfully: she had no comforter. O LORD…


1. They that be hardened in sin by despising destruction, do grow to forget those things which continual experience and the light of reason daily call to remembrance.

(1) The daily custom of things, without grace to esteem them aright, breedeth contempt of them in our corrupt nature.

(2) Satan blindeth the children of disobedience, lest they should rightly regard good things and profit by them.

2. The forgetfulness of the reward of sin throweth men headlong into iniquity; but the remembrance of it stayeth us from many evils (Amos 6:3; Psalm 16:8).

(J. Udall.)
