To preach the doctrine of repentance to men, that they may obtain remission of sins. But it seems more natural, To teach people that the only way by which they can attain salvation, is not by any righteousness of their own, but by obtaining the free pardon and remission of their sins by Christ and his righteousness, Psa_32:1, which is in short to preach the gospel, which is the power of Godto salvation to every one that believeth. For therein is therighteousness of God revealed from faith to faith, Rom_1:16,17.
