14. Now it was written on tables of stone, because
it was written in a type, but the tables were first broken and cast out
of the hands of Moses, because the Jews fell away from the works of the
prophet. And fitly were the tables broken, not the writing
erased. And do you see that your table be not broken, that your
mind and soul be not
divided. Is Christ divided?
He is not divided, but is one with the Father; and let no one separate
you from Him. If your faith fails, the table of your heart is
broken. The coherence of your soul is lessened if you do not
believe the unity of Godhead in the Trinity. Your faith is
written, and your sin is written, as Jeremiah said: “Thy
sin, O Judah, is written with a pen of iron and the point of a
diamond. And it is written,” he says, “on thy breast
and on thy heart.” Jer. xvii. 1. The sin,
therefore, is there where grace is, but the sin is written with a pen,
grace is denoted by the Spirit.
