A30158hast thou received the Spirit of Adoption?
A30158how much hypocrisie, if before others?
A30158is this to serve God?
A30158when for the Doctrine of God there is imposed( that is more than taught) the Traditions of men?
A30143After this, that other doubt did come with strength upon me, But how if the day of grace should be past and gone?
A30143At another time I remember I was again ● uch under the Question, Whether the blood of ● hrist was sufficient to save my Soul?
A30143At which I was as if I had been raised out of a grave, and cryed out again, Lord, how couldst thou find out such a word as this?
A30143But yet all the things of God were kept out of my sight, and still the tempter followed me with, But whith ● r must you go when you die?
A30143Have you forgot the Close, the Milk- house, the Stable, the Barn, and the like, where God did visit your Soul?
A30143Have you never a Hill Mizar to remember?
A30143How lovely now was every one in my eyes, that I thought to be converted men and women?
A30143I was no soo ● er fixed upon this resolution, But that Word dropt upon me, Doth Job serve God for no ● ight?
A30143If God be for us, who can be against us?
A30143Man knows the beginning of sin( said Spira) but who bounds the issue''s thereof?
A30143Now I remember that one day as I was walking into the Country, I was much in the thoughts of this, But how if the day of grace be past?
A30143O Lord, thought I, what if I should not indeed?
A30143The rebellious?
A30143Then breaking out in the bitterness of my Soul, I said with a grievous sigh, How can God comfort such a wretch as I?
A30143Then did that Scripture seize upon my Soul, He is of one mind, and who can turn him?
A30143Therefore this wou ● ● still stick with me, How can you tell you are ● lected?
A30143and what if you should not?
A30143and whether the holy Scriptures were not rather a Fable and cunning Story, then the holy and pure Word of God?
A30143are these the tokens of a blessed man?
A30143but how can you tell you have Faith?
A30143but is it true?
A30143hath not the least Creature that hath life, more of God in it than these?
A30143how if you have over- stood the time of mercy?
A30143how then?
A30143is he a go ● lie man that vvill serve God for nothing ra ● her then give out?
A30143is his mercy clean gone for ever?
A30143is it so much to be a Fiddle?
A30143must it needs be the great transgression?
A30143or have thy sins, and go to Hell?
A30143there is but three or four, and can not God miss them, and save me for all them?
A30143thought I, what sorrow art thou like to have for thy portion in this world?
A30143thought ●, is this the sign of an upright Sou ●, to desire to serve God when all is taken from him?
A30143wh ● re will you be found in ● nother world?
A30143what evidence have you for heaven and glo ● y, and an inheritance a ● ong them that are sanctified?
A30143what will become of you?
A30143will you preach this?
A30197A new Covenant, and why not then a new resting- day to the Church?
A30197And in that he saith, There remains a Rest, referring to that of David, What is it, if it signifies not, that the other Rests remain not?
A30197And shall we not imitate our Lord, nor the Church that was immediately acted by him in this, and the Churches their fellows?
A30197And what day so fit as the Lords day for this?
A30197And why can they not as well keep the other Sabbaths, as the Sabbaths of Months, of Years, and the Jubilee?
A30197But how could be either the one or the other, if the Seventh ▪ day- Sabbath was taught men by the Light of Nature, which is the moral Law?
A30197But if indeed the first day of the week be the new Christian Sabbath, why is there no more spoken of its iustitution in the Testament of Christ?
A30197But is there yet another reason why this holy duty should, in special as it is, be commanded to be performed on the first day of the week?
A30197But what day is this?
A30197But what day?
A30197But what kind of being had the Seventh- day- sabbath, and other Jewish Rites and Ceremonies, that by Christs Resurrection was taken away?
A30197But why must he be imposed upon?
A30197But why the Seventh day?
A30197But why, I say, is this day, on which our Lord rose from the dead, Nominated as it is?
A30197I say, why are things thus left with us?
A30197If they say, they retain the day, but change their manner of observation thereof; I ask, Who has commanded them so to do?
A30197Now if he means their ordinary Sabbaths, or that called the Seventh- day- sabbath, why doth he joyn the Winter thereto?
A30197Now if it be asked, What Promise is intailed to our First- day- sabbath?
A30197Now, saith the Text, when he bringeth him thus into the world, he requireth that worship be done unto HIM: When?
A30197Or whether that day, as a Sabbath, was afterwards by the Apostles imposed upon the Churches of the Gentiles?
A30197Take but the shadow thereof away: Or what shadow now is left in it since its institution as to Divine Service is taken long since from it?
A30197That which we read is this; Hast thou eaten of the tree whereof I commanded thee, that thou shouldest not eat?
A30197The Law is not of Faith, why then should Grace be by Christians expected by observation of the Law?
A30197Upon the first day: what, or which first day of this, or that, of the third or fourth week of the month?
A30197What can be more plain?
A30197What can be more plain?
A30197What is it then?
A30197What is it then?
A30197What is it?
A30197What shall be done to them that curse this day, and would not that the Stars should give their light thereon?
A30197What then shall we say, when we see a first Practice turned into holy Custom?
A30197Where are the Tables of Stone and this Law as therein contained?
A30197Where do we find the Churches to gather together thereon?
A30197Where is the Scripture that saith that this Lord of the Sabbath commanded his Church, from that time, to do any part of Church- service thereon?
A30197Whether the Seventh day- Sabbath did not fall, as such, with the rest of the Jewish Rites and Ceremonies?
A30197Whether the Seventh- day- Sabbath is Of, or made known to man by the Law and Light of Nature?
A30197Why was it not sufficient to say he rose again; or, be rose again the third day?
A30197and his Name not be, but of a common regard on that day?
A30197and shall we not take that notice thereof as to follow the Lord Jesus and the Churches herein?
A30197did he finish HIS work thereon?
A30197has he chosen that day?
A30197or why must the old Sabbath be joyned to this new Ministration?
A30197ought not I also to set this day apart to sing the songs of my Redemption in?
A30197why was their name, for all that, blotted out, and this day onely kept alive in the Churches?
A30213And are not these pleasant sights?
A30213Ay, but Lord, what wilt thou do to quench their thirst?
A30213But how much more now?
A30213But how?
A30213But of what?
A30213But to slight Grace, to do dispite to the Spirit of Grace, to prefer our own works to the derogating from Grace; what is it, but to contemn God?
A30213But what are they?
A30213But what is Ancle deep, to that which followeth after?
A30213But whence must this come?
A30213But who understands this, who believes it?
A30213But why?
A30213Can these teach him to manage his knowledge well?
A30213Can''st thou live always,( and no where else but) in the water?
A30213Do you count them pure with the wicked balances?
A30213Fifthly, Doth this Water of Life run like a River?
A30213For wherein can Grace or Love more appear, than in his laying down his Life for us?
A30213How much more abominable and filthy is man, which drinketh iniquity like water?
A30213How shall we escape, if we neglect so great Salvation?
A30213How shall we escape, if we turn away from him, that speaketh from Heaven?
A30213I say what less than a River could do it?
A30213If the Father, or the Son, or the Holy- Ghost are gracious, if they were not all gracious, what would it profit?
A30213If the wrath of a King, is as Messengers of Death: If the wrath of the King is as the roaring of a Lion: what is the wrath of God?
A30213If thou ask, where that dwelling is?
A30213Is Grace thy proper Element?
A30213Is the Doctrine offered unto thee so?
A30213Now it may be asked, What is the Throne of Grace?
A30213Sinner, Sick- sinner, what sayest thou to this?
A30213Sixthly, But what is all this to the dead World?
A30213They talk of the Philosophers Stone, and how, if one had it?
A30213Thorow what righteousness?
A30213Thou art in a strait, wilt thou fly before Moses, or with David fall into the hands of the Lord?
A30213Was it not therefore well worth the seeing?
A30213Well, what shall be done for this man?
A30213Were all the World gracious, if God were not gracious, what was man the better?
A30213Who is it that would not have the benefit of Grace, of a Throne of Grace?
A30213Why?
A30213Will they not rather put him upon all tricks, evasions, irreligious consequences and conclusions, such as will serve to cherish Sin?
A30213but can it turn all things into Grace?
A30213but to accept of Grace, specially when''t is free Grace, Grace that reigns, Grace from the Throne; how sweet is it?
A30213but who is it that can live by Grace?
A30213can it make all things work together for good?
A30213can''st thou live in the Water?
A30213has not this River pleasant streams?
A30213how can that be, since they are hurtful?
A30213how hot will that make Wrath?
A30213is not this excellent Water?
A30213like a broad, full, and deep River?
A30213or is it muddy and mixed with the Doctrines of men?
A30213to contemn him when he is on the Throne, when he is on the Throne of his Glory?
A30213to them that love to be dead?
A30213what are a thousand such short Comparisons to the unsearchable Love of Christ?
A30213what less than a River, could quench the thirst of more than Six hundred thousand men, besides women and children?
A30213who would not but be a subject to it?
A30213who would not but worship before it?
A30213will his God humour him, and answer his desires?
A30213wilt thou go to Hell for Sin, or to Life by Grace?
A30213wouldest thou wade, wouldst thou swim?
A30136& c. What then?
A30136And that if they had light therein, they would as willingly do it as you?
A30136And what communion hath light with darkness?
A30136And what concord hath Christ with Belial?
A30136Are we stronger then he?
A30136Are ye not Carnall, Carnall, Carnall?
A30136As many as walk, according to this rule; What rule?
A30136Be not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: For what fellowship hath righteousness, with unrighteousness?
A30136Behold saith he, this self same thing that ye sorrowed after a Godly sort; what carefulness it wrought in you?
A30136Brethren, saith he, be ye followers together with me, and mark them that walk so; Mark them; For what?
A30136But I say what can the Church do more to the sinner or open prophane?
A30136But by what rule then would you gather persons into Church- communion?
A30136But can you commit your Soul to their Ministry, and joyne with them in Prayer; and yet not count them meet for other Gospel p ● iviledges?
A30136But doubtless when these contentions were among the Corinthians?
A30136But how if they yet retain some Antichristian principles?
A30136But saith the open prophane; Why can not we be reckoned Saints also?
A30136But what should we do with such kind of Saints?
A30136But why should he be rebuked, that said he was for Christ?
A30136But why then did he thus abhor them?
A30136But why then were they not circumcised?
A30136Canst thou by searching find out God; canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection?
A30136Civil commerce you will have with the worst, and what more have you with these?
A30136Did not Solomon King of Israel sin by these things?
A30136For if it be the initiating ordinance, it entereth them into the Church: What Church?
A30136For take away the confession of Faith and holyness; and what can distinguish a Christian from a Turk?
A30136Hath a Nation changed their Gods which yet are no Gods?
A30136He erreth in a circumstance, thou errest in a substance; who must bear these errors?
A30136Hearken how delightfully Paul handleth the point?
A30136I would know by what Scripture you do it?
A30136Into what particular Church was Lydia baptized by Paul, or those first converts at Philippi?
A30136It is God that justifyeth: Who is he that condemneth?
A30136Must these for this be cast out of the Church?
A30136Or what agreement hath the temple of God with Idols?
A30136Or what part hath he that believeth with an infidell?
A30136Some of the things of God that are excellent have not been approved by some of the Saints: What then?
A30136The Subject I should have Preached upon, even then when the Constable came, was, Dost thou believe on the Son of God?
A30136Though he yet stand a member of that sinfull number, and profess himself one of them?
A30136Travellers, that are of the same countrey, love, and take pleasure one in another, when they meet in a strange Land, why?
A30136Upon whom must these reproaches fall?
A30136Well but let me ask you one word farther: Do you believe, that of very conscience, they can not consent, as you, to that of Water baptism?
A30136What infirmityes?
A30136What said God unto him?
A30136What shall I say?
A30136What shall I say?
A30136When those you read of in the fourth of Ezra, attempted to joyn in Temple work with the children of the captivity; what said the children of Judah?
A30136While one saith I am of Paul, and another I am of Apollo; are you not carnall?
A30136Who art thou that judgest another mans servant?
A30136Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God''s eiect?
A30136Who then is Paul?
A30136Why blameless?
A30136Why then should he judge me for that I can not give thanks with him for his?
A30136Why?
A30136Will a man leave the Snow of Lebanon, that cometh from the rock of the field?
A30136Will any say we can not believe that God hath received any but such as are Baptized?
A30136and who is Apollo?
A30136or shall the cold flowing waters, that come from another place be forsaken?
A30136what clearing of your selves?
A30136yea what fear?
A30136yea what vehement desire, yea what zeal, yea what revenge?
A30137A type in what?
A30137Again, what is man that he should be clean?
A30137And are you able thus to imitate him?
A30137And though he did so many Miracles among them, yet they believed him not: But what should they believe?
A30137And will God indeed dwell with Men on the Earth, faith Solomon?
A30137And would you be doing this?
A30137Any thing but truth; But I would know how sincerely Righteous they were that were Justified without Works?
A30137As to the Second Head ▪ What need is there, that the Righteousness of Christ should be Imputed, where men are Righteous first?
A30137Believing what?
A30137Besides, the threatning being pressed with an HOW shall we escape?
A30137But doth not a man bring forth fruit unto God, that walketh orderly according to the ten Commandments?
A30137But hath he no better thoughts of his own good deeds, which are by the Law?
A30137But how are we by this Man forgiven this?
A30137But how then must Jesus Christ, first save us from the Filth?
A30137But might they not be healed by humbling themselves?
A30137But now I would inquire; Had Israel done the Commandment, if they had eaten the Passover Raw; or Boiled in Water?
A30137But shall I speak the truth for you?
A30137But what Blessedness doth follow, the Imputation of the Righteousness of Christ, to one that is yet Ungodly?
A30137But what Righteousness have you of your own, to which you so dearly are Wedded, that it may not be let go, for the sake of Christ?
A30137But what Salvation?
A30137But what be these certain Circumstances?
A30137But what be these other Precepts?
A30137But what if they that were Stung, could not, because of the swelling of their face, look up to the Brazen Serpent?
A30137But what is it to believe that he is Messias, or Christ?
A30137But what is it to turn( from the Law) to the Lord?
A30137But what is the Spirit of the World?
A30137But what is 〈 ◊ 〉 to believe in Christ?
A30137But what saith the Apostle?
A30137But what things are they?
A30137But would you be imitating of, or accompishing such a Righteousness?
A30137Did I say before that the God of Glory is desirous to be seen of us?
A30137For, while a Man remains faithless and ignorant of the Gospel, to what doth his obedient temper of mind incline?
A30137Have I been so long time with you, saith Christ, and hast thou not known me Philip?
A30137He hath made Peace by the Blood of his Cross: so then, Faith in the first place seeketh Peace: But why Peace First?
A30137He that is Ungodly hath a want of Righteousness, even of the inward Righteousness of Works: But what must become of him?
A30137Here now is a Man an Hungred; what must he feed upon?
A30137How shall we escape if we neglect so great Salvation?
A30137How then, if God should cast you into Turky, where Mahomet Reigns as Lord?
A30137How then?
A30137I know not; But thus I Read, We shall be like him: Why?
A30137I marvel what injury the Lord Jesus hath done this man, that he should have such indifferent thought of coming to God by him?
A30137Miracles and Signs are for them that believe not: Why for them?
A30137Now it is not the Nature of Faith; I mean, of Justifying Faith; to have any thing for an Object; from which fetcheth Peace with God?
A30137Now this righteousness, the Apostle casteth away, as was shewed before; not having mine own righteousness,( saith he) which is of the law; why?
A30137Observe; I am commanded to believe, but what should I believe?
A30137Or, what if a Man should act now as a Son, rather then simply as a Creature indued with a Principle of Reason?
A30137Ought not Christ to have suffered?
A30137Such as are self- evident or evident of themselves; to what?
A30137Tell me, I say, by this Text, whether is here intended the Sins of all that shall be saved?
A30137The Jews came round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to doubt?
A30137The forgiveness of Sins: But what is meant by forgiveness?
A30137This onely would I learn of you; Received you the Spirit by the works of the Law, or by the hearing of Faith?
A30137To the Romans, I beseech you therefore, saith he, by the Mercies of God;( What Mercies?
A30137Was the Serpent then lifted up for them that were good and Godly?
A30137What know you not, that an Essential of the Righteousness he accomplished for Sinners when he was in the World?
A30137What will thy Gallant, Generous mind do here?
A30137When Philip under a mistake, thought of seeing God some other way, then in and by this Lord Jesus Christ; What is the Answer?
A30137Where now is the sound and healthful complexion of Soul?
A30137Who they are that hold, our Happiness in Heaven, shall come by a meer fixing our Eyes upon the Divine Perfections?
A30137Why Salvation?
A30137Why do they believe in Christ?
A30137Why?
A30137Why?
A30137Why?
A30137and what to have faith in his Blood?
A30137hath the Ministration of God no Glory?
A30137or he that is born of a Woman, that he should be holy?
A30137or how sincerely Righteous they were, whom God Justified, as Ungodly?
A30137or how?
A30137or if they had offered that Offering; that was to be burnt as a Sin Offering, otherwise then it was commanded?
A30137or what should be the object of my Faith in the matter of my justification with God?
A30137to what value will an imputative Righteousness amount?
A30137where?
A30137wherefore?
A3020913. but what''s a tenth: what''s one in ten?
A3020914. what saist thou?
A3020918, 19. canst thou answer this question sinner?
A30209Are there few that be saved?
A30209But is not Christ the gate or entrance into this heavenly place?
A30209But mark, there shall be an handful; what''s an handful when compared with the whole heap, or what''s an handful out of the rest of the world?
A30209But some may say, how will they seek to enter in?
A30209But what do you mean by these three questions?
A30209But will this plea do?
A30209But you will say, how should we try our graces?
A30209But you will say, what is it to strive lawfully?
A30209Can thine heart endure, or can thy hands be strong in the day that I shall deal with thee saith the Lord?
A30209Esau, did dispise his birth- right, saying, what good will this birth- right do me?
A30209First, What doth this word strive, import?
A30209God forbid that we should have been such sinners, but Lord, give an instance; when was it, or where?
A30209Hark again, the sweet morsels of sins will then be fled, and gone, and the bitter burning fruits of them only left, what saist thou now sinner?
A30209How do they shew themselves to be true under the first of these?
A30209How do they shew themselves to be true under the second?
A30209How do they shew themselves to be true under the third?
A30209How doest thou finde them in outward trials?
A30209How should we strive?
A30209I come now to the third question, namely but why should we strive?
A30209I have set thee for a tower and a fortress among my people, that thou maiest know and try their way, what follows?
A30209I say again, how will they strive for this?
A30209If Judgment begins at the house of God, what will the end of them be that obey not the Gospel of God?
A30209If these poor creatures were in the world again, would they sin as they did before?
A30209Methinks this word heaven, and this eternal life, what is there again either in heaven or earth like them to provoke a man to strive?
A30209O poor professor, what wilt thou do at this day, at the day of thy trial& judgement?
A30209Oh when men are sick of sin, and afraid of damning, what a text is that, where this word saved is ● ound?
A30209Peter asks thee another question, to witt, If the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly, and sinners appear?
A30209Poor sinner awake, eternity is coming,& his son, they are both coming to judge the world, awake; art yet asleep?
A30209Secondly, the second question, is how should we strive?
A30209Shall I come to particulars with thee?
A30209This is Peters question, canst thou answer it, sinner?
A30209We reade in the book of the Revelations, of the holy citie, and that it had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve Angels, but what did they do there?
A30209What doth this word, strive, import?
A30209When the prophet speaks of the saved under this metaphor of gleaning, how doth he amplify the matter?
A30209Why should we strive?
A30209and so, consequently, say unto God, depart from us, for we desire, not the knowledg of thy ways, or what''s the Almighty that we should serve him?
A30209and there are many in the world of his mind to this day: tush( say they,) they talk of being born again, what good shall a man get by that?
A30209and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?
A30209and yet all this is included in this word, saved, and in the answer to that question, are there few that be saved?
A30209can ● t thou drink hell fire?
A30209cover thy self thou canst not, go for a Christian thou canst not, stand against the Judge thou canst not; what wilt thou do?
A30209do not I fill heaven and earth, saith the- Lord?
A30209for it will little profit thee to think of the blessed kingdom of heaven, if thou wantest a birthright to give thee inheritance there?
A30209how art thou cut down to the ground that didst weaken the nations?
A30209how doest thou find thy self under the most high enjoyment of grace in this world?
A30209is this he that separated from us, but how is he fallen with us into the same eternal damnation with us?
A30209or wilt thou be desperate and venture all?
A30209or wilt thou take time to do it?
A30209stand among the wicked thou then wilt not dare to do; where wilt thou appear sinner?
A30209to be saved from sin, from hell, from the wrath of God, from eternal damnation, what is like it?
A30209what a disappointment is here?
A30209what a disappointments here?
A30209what is like it?
A30209what wilt thou do?
A30209what''s the gleanings to the whole crop?
A30209what, is like being saved?
A30209why then I had as good never seek: who told thee so?
A30209will the wrath of God be a pleasant dish to thy ta ● t?
A30209wilt thou answer this question now?
A30209would they neglect salvation as they did before?
A30209would you have us run into temptation to try if they be ● ound or rotten?
A30209yea, I say again, if judgement must begin at them, will it not make thee think, what shall become of me?
A30209yea, what a word of worth and goodness and blessedness is it to him that lies continually upon the wrath of a guilty conscience?
A30201AND now, behold, when Jacob had been told That there was Corn in Egypt to be sold, He said unto his Sons, Why stand ye thus?
A30201And he said, How long Would it have been, e''er you had understood This thing had you not with my Heifer plow''d?
A30201And if your Brethren only you salute, What more than they do ye?

A30201And of what Nation?
A30201And to distressed Jonah, said the Lord, Dost thou well to be angry for the Gourd?
A30201And when unto her Mother- in- Law she came, Art thou, said she, my Daughter, come again?
A30201And where hast thou been working?
A30201And why dost thou take notice of the Mote That''s in thy Brother''s Eye, but dost not note The Beam that''s in thine own?

A30201Blessed are they that do make Peace: For why?
A30201Brethren what profit is''t if a Man saith That he hath Faith, and hath not Works; can Faith Save him?
A30201But Naomi replied, Wherefore will ye, My Daughters, thus resolve to go with me?
A30201But with the Voice of my Thanksgiving, I Will offer Sacrifice to thee on high, And pay my Vows which I have vow''d each one, For why?
A30201Can Olives, Brethren, on a Fig- tree grow, Or Figs on Vines?
A30201Cast Devils out, done Wonders in the same?
A30201Do Men either Pluck Grapes of Thorns, or Figs of Thistles gather?
A30201Do not Publicans the same?
A30201Do not the rich Men o''er you tyrannize, And hale you to their Courts; that worthy Name By which you''re call''d, do not they blaspheme?
A30201Do ye think that the Scripture saith in vai ● The Spirit that lusts to hate doth in you reign?
A30201Dost thou Do well, said God, to be so angry now?
A30201Doth not her Sister''s Beauty hers exceed, Though young?
A30201FRom whence come Wars and Fights, come they not hence, Ev''n from th''inordinate concupiscence That in your Members prompts to variance?
A30201For what is your Reward, if you love them That love you?
A30201For what''s the Life of Man?
A30201Have ye not read Of Job, how patiently he suffered?
A30201Have ye not seen in him what 〈 ◊ 〉 God''s end, How he doth pity and great love extend?
A30201He said, I am: Manoah said, Now let thy Words be true: How shall we use the Child, what must we do?
A30201I am Joseph your own Brother; And doth my Father live?

A30201Is any Fountain of so strange a nature, At once to send forth sweet and bitter water?
A30201Is he in Health, or doth he cease to be?
A30201Manoah then arose, and went his way, And when he came, he said, Art thou the Man That spakest to my Wife?
A30201Or if he ask a Fish, will he bestow A Serpent?
A30201Or what Man is there of you, if his Son Shall ask him Bread, will he give him a Stone?
A30201Return again, my Daughters, go your way, For I''m too Old to marry: Should I say I''ve Hope?
A30201Should I this Night conceive a Son?
A30201THen Naomi said, Shall I not, my Daughter, Seek Rest for thee, that thou do well hereafter?
A30201Take no thought therefore, saying, What shall we eat, Or drink, or where shall we our Raiment get?
A30201Then Isr''el said, why were you so unkind To say you had a Brother left behind?
A30201Then he enquired if they all were well, And said, When you were here I heard you tell Of an old Man your Father, how does he?
A30201Then said she, How canst thou pretend to love me, When thus thy Doing towards me disprove thee?
A30201Then said the Men of Judah for what reason Are you come up against us at this season?
A30201Then said they, we intreat thee let us know, For whose cause we this evil undergo, Whence comest thou?
A30201Then unto her, her Mother- in- Law did say, In what Field hast thou been to glean to day?
A30201Then were the Men exceedingly afraid; And, wherefore hast thou done this thing?
A30201There is but one Law- giver That''s able to destroy and to deliver; Who then art thou that dost condemn thy Neighbour?
A30201To whom they said, Why hath my Lord such thought?
A30201What Country- man art thou?
A30201What Evil hath effected This melancholy Frame, what is''t that causes These marks of Discontentment in your Faces?
A30201What is thine Occupation?
A30201What more strong Than is a Lion?
A30201What shall we do unto thee then they said, That so the raging of the Sea be stay''d?
A30201Wherefore is it that thou Hast done this thing, to bring this Evil now, Upon us, let us know it?
A30201Whereto the Man of God made this Reply, Why askest thou, since''t is a Mystery?
A30201Which of you can By taking thought add to his height one span?
A30201Who knows if God will yet be pleas''d to spare, And turn away the Evil that we fear?
A30201Would either of you stay till he is grown?
A30201Would you so long without an Husband live?
A30201Ye are the Salt o''th''Earth; but wherewith must The Salt be season''d when the savour''s lost?
A30201You that live in Adult''ry, know not ye The friendship of the World is enmity With God?
A30201at Midnight, as he turn''d him round, He was afraid, for at his Feet he found A Woman lay: Who art thou?
A30201the People were surpriz''d, and cried What is this Naomi?
A3020032, 33, 34. as if he had said, Do you profess Christianity?
A302006, 7. Who can stand before his indignation?
A30200A Resurrection, of what?
A30200Ah Lord, what a condition will the Christless Soul be in at this day?
A30200And again, if thou Lord, shouldest mark iniquity, O Lord, who shall stand?
A30200And do these struglings against these things, arise from pure love to the Lord Jesus, or from some legall terrours and conviction for sin?
A30200And how sayst thou?
A30200And when did we see thee an hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister to thee?
A30200And why shall he that doth most for God in this World, injoy most of him in that which is to come?
A30200As who should say; wherefore do I deny my self of those mercies and priviledges, that the men of this World injoy?
A30200Body do they come?
A30200But can any imagine, that he there, should strike at that flesh that hangeth on our bone?
A30200But what should I thus discourse of the degrees of the Torments of the damned Souls in Hell?
A30200But, O methinks, with what careful hearts will ▪ the damned now begin to look for their names in this Book?
A30200Can any hide himself in secret places, that I should not see him?
A30200Death quaketh, and destruction falleth down dead at our feet: What then can stand before us?
A30200Do not I fill Heaven and Earth, saith the Lord?
A30200Do you not know, that the Resurrection of the Body, and glory to follow, is the very quintessence of the Gospel of Jesus Christ?
A30200First of all, men the most miserable, because we let go present injoyments of those that will never come if the dea ● rise not?
A30200For as truly as thou sayest of thy fruitless Tree, cut it down, why doth it cumbet the ground?
A30200He that chasteneth the Heathen, shall not he correct?
A30200He that formed the Eye, shall not he see?
A30200He that planted the Ear, shall not he hear?
A30200He that teacheth man knowledge, shall not he know?
A30200He will reckon them up so fast, and so fully, that thou wilt cry Lord, When did I do this?
A30200How I say, will every Creature flie, run, strive, and struggle, to escape the danger it is sensible of?
A30200How will every one of these things afflict the damned Soul?
A30200If Judgement begin at the House of God, what will the end of them be, that obey not the Gospel of God?
A30200If a sense of some sin( for who sees all?
A30200If the dead rise not, what shall I be the better for all my trouble that here I met with for the Gospel of Christ?
A30200In the faith of what?
A30200Is any thing to hard for the Lord?
A30200Lord, who knoweth the power of thine anger?
A30200Now I say, when this part of the Book of Life shall be opened, what can be found in it, of the good deeds, and Heaven- born actions of wicked men?
A30200O poor hearts, how loath?
A30200O what Thunderings and Lightnings, what Earthquakes and Tempests, will there be in every damned Soul, at the opening of this Book?
A30200Sirs, ye are Brethren, why do ye wrong one another?
A30200That they should lie and rot in their graves eternally?
A30200Then cometh the end faith Paul, when he shall have delivered up the Kingdom to God the Father: But when shall that be?
A30200Thou tell est my wonderings, and puttest my tears into thy Bottle, are they not in thy Book?
A30200To this end, I say, how was the Shunamites Son raised from the dead?
A30200Touching the Book of my Remembrance, who can contradict it?
A30200Understand, O ye bruitish among the People, and ye fools, when will ye be wise?
A30200Wast thou one of them, that didst sigh, and afflict thy self for the abominations of the times?
A30200Well then, tell me sinner, if Christ shou ● d now come to judge the World, canst thou abide the tryal of the Book of Life?
A30200What acts of self- denyal, hast thou done for the name of the Lord Jesus, among the Sons of men?
A30200What hast thou done man, for God, in this World?
A30200What, know you not that your Body is the Temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you?
A30200When saw we thee a hungry, and fed thee?
A30200When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in?
A30200When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee not in?
A30200Where is the promise of his coming?
A30200Who can abide the fierceness of his anger?
A30200Who can eat fire, drink fire, and ly down in the midst of flames of fire?
A30200With righteousness shall be judge the World, and the People with Equity, shall not the Judge of all the Earth do right?
A30200and do you question the Resurrection of the Body?
A30200and how shall be he be convinced of eternall Judgement, if you perswade him, that when he is dead, he shall not at all arise?
A30200and if the Righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and sinner appear?
A30200and that Christ hath marked, and Recorded for such a one?
A30200and that also against which the spirit lusteth?
A30200and when did I do the other?
A30200behold, he comes as a Refiners fire, and as Full ● rs Soap, shalt thou indeed abide the melting and washing of this day?
A30200hath he said it, and shall he not bring it to passe?
A30200how dreadful is it?
A30200how loath are they to partake of the fruit of their ungodly doings?
A30200how unwillingly do they turn away from Christ?
A30200how will they die and languish in their Souls?
A30200how will they faint?
A30200or a thirst, and gave thee drink?
A30200or naked, and cloathed thee not?
A30200or naked, and cloathed thee?
A30200or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
A30200or when saw we thee thirsty, and gave thee no drink?
A30200or when wast thou sick, or in prison, and we did not minister unto thee?
A30200so truly doth thy Voyce cause Heaven to Eccho again upon thy head: Cut him down, why doth he cumber the ground?
A30200that is, when he is committing wickedness, saith the Lord, Do not I fill Heaven and Earth, saith the Lord?
A30200was not I in all places to behold, to see, and to observe thee in all thy ways?
A30200why do not I also, as well as they, shun persecution for the Cross of Christ?
A30167A wounded Spirit who can bear?
A30167And I, saith he, if I be lifted up from the Earth, will draw all men unto me: but what was it to be lifted up from the Earth?
A30167And can an Holy and Just God require that we give thanks to him in his Name, if it was not effectually done for us by him?
A30167Because Christ is our Pattern, is he not our Passeover?
A30167Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me?
A30167Besides, what arguments so prevailing, as such as are purely Gospel?
A30167But how doth that appear?
A30167But how should I prove the Goodness of mine own Righteousness, by the Death and Blood of Christ?
A30167But how was Jesus Christ made of God to be sin for us?
A30167But might not Christ die for our Sins, but he needs must bear their Guilt or Burden?
A30167But some may say, What need of the Righteousness of one that is naturally God?
A30167But what a disappointment would these waiting Believers have, should all their expectations be rewarded with a Fable?
A30167But what did he do with our Sins?
A30167But what saith the Apostle?
A30167But what then are Sinners the better for the Death and Blood of Christ?
A30167But what?
A30167But wherein lyeth the depth of this Wisdom of God in our Salvation, if Man''s Right- hand can save him?
A30167But why could they not learn that Song?
A30167But why not possible now to be helden of death?
A30167But would God have given the World such an account of his Sufferings, that by one Offering he did perfect for ever them that are sanctified?
A30167But, I say, what cause would there be to ask in his Name more than in the Name of some other?
A30167By him therefore; wherefore?
A30167Can thine Heart endure, or can thine Hands be strong?
A30167Christ must die, or Man be damned: where is now any room for the Righteousness of Men?
A30167Hath he indeed born all my Sins, and spilt his Blood for my Redemption?
A30167He must do the Work by dying: Ought not Christ to have suffered?
A30167He sanctified us with his Blood, but why should the Father have thanks for this?
A30167He that believeth not, but what should he believe?
A30167If David called him Lord, how is he then his Son?
A30167If our Sins be upon us, and we pine away in them, how can we THEN live?
A30167Must the Son of God himself come down from Heaven?
A30167My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
A30167No: What then?
A30167No: shall he stay from Christ till his Heart is better?
A30167No: shall he trust to his duties?
A30167Now what is the Signification of this Name, but SAVIOUR?
A30167Now when Jesus was born, it''s said, Where is he that is born King of the Jews?
A30167Perhaps the Word Satisfaction will hardly be found in the Bible; and where is it said in so many words, God is dissatisfied with our Sins?
A30167Secondly, What it is to come to be a Saviour?
A30167Secondly, What was it for Jesus to be of Davids Seed?
A30167Secondly, What was it for Jesus to come into the World?
A30167Sinners, you have Souls, can you behold a Crucified Christ and not Bleed, and not Mourn, and not fall in Love with him?
A30167The END of the Law, what is the End of the Law, but perfect and sinless Obedience?
A30167The Peace of God, of that we have spoken before; but how should this rule in our Hearts?
A30167Then gathered the Chief- Priests and Pharisees a Counsel, and said, what do we?
A30167These kill the Heart, for who can bear up under the guilt of Sin?
A30167We may not go in our own names, because we are Sinners; not in the Name of one another, because all are Sinners; but why not in the Name of an Angel?
A30167What doth the Law require?
A30167What follows now?
A30167What greater argument to holiness, than to be made the Members of the Body, of the Flesh, and of the Bones of Jesus Christ?
A30167What greater argument to holiness, than to have our Soul, our Body, our Life hid, and secured with Christ in God?
A30167What is his Name, and what is his Sons Name, if thou canst tell?
A30167What meant he by turning Adam out of Paradise, by drowning the Old World, by burning up Sodom with Fire and Brimstone from Heaven?
A30167When the Apostle had taken such a view of himself as to put himself into a maze, with an out- cry also, who shall deliver me?
A30167While Jacob was afraid of Esau, how heavily did he drive, even towards the Promised Land?
A30167Why, what had Jonathan done?
A30167Ye Hypocrites, ye can discern the Face of the Skie, and of the Earth, but how is it that ye do not discern this Time?
A30167and why may we not go to Christ in the Name of the Father, as well as to the Father in the Name of Christ?
A30167art thou also of Galilee?
A30167can not all the Angels do it?
A30167can not an Angel do it?
A30167can not man by any means redeem his Brother, nor give to God a Ransom for him?
A30167can not one Sinner save another?
A30167how should he contain hopes of life?
A30167or can there be no Salvation?
A30167or, because we should in these things follow his Steps, died he not for our Sins?
A30167why in his Name, if his undertakings for us are not well- pleasing to God?
A3019844 p. Printed for G.L., London:[ 1674?]
A30198Also that he may deny to give them that Grace that would preserve them from sin, without being guilty of their Damnation?
A30198Also whether Reprobation be the cause of Condemnation?
A30198Also whether Reprobation be the cause of Condemnation?
A30198And doth he not make his Pots according to his pleasure?
A30198And how could the People believe and embrace it?
A30198And how could we have seen it to purpose, had not God left some to themselves?
A30198And is not his Will the only Rule of his Mercy?
A30198And may he not, without he give offence to thee, lay hold by electing Love and Mercy on whom himself pleaseth?
A30198Are all the Elect, the Seed, the Saved, the Vessels of Mercy, the Chosen and Peculiar?
A30198Are not some( yea the most) the Children of the Flesh, the Rest, the Lost, the Vessels of Wrath, of Dishonour, and the Children of Perdition?
A30198As touching the beauty and goodness that was in the Object unto which they were allured; What was it?
A30198But I say, suppose it should be granted, is it because Reprobation made him uncapable, or Sin?
A30198But how is this similitude pertinent?
A30198But how then is he clear from having a hand in the death of him that perisheth?
A30198But might not God have kept Adam from inclining, if he would?
A30198But still the Question is, Whether God by this his determination doth not lay a necessity on the Creature to sin?
A30198But was not Adam unexpectedly suprized?
A30198By Rest here, must needs be understood those not Elect, because set one in opposition to the other; and if not Elect, what then but Reprobate?
A30198Can the Ethiopian change his skin?
A30198Did not God know best what was best to do them good?
A30198Do you not know that he is far more above us, then we are above our Horse or Mule that is without understanding?
A30198Do you not know that he may refuse to Elect who he will, without abusing of them?
A30198First, Is it not reasonable that man should believe God in the profer of the Gospel, and Life by it?
A30198Further, What harm doth God to any Reprobate, by not Electing of him?
A30198Had he notice before- hand, and warning of the danger?
A30198Hath he spoken, and shall he not bring it to pass?
A30198Have they not the means of Grace?
A30198Hold, saith the Apostle; stay a little here; first remember this, Is it meet to say unto God, what doest thou?
A30198How is the Word buried under the Clods of their Hearts for months, yea years together?
A30198How much more then is he merciful and gracious, even in but mentioning terms of Reconciliation?
A30198If God, when man had broke the Law, had yet with all severity kept the World to the utmost condition of it, had he then been unjust?
A30198If not, how do they differ?
A30198If not, how do they differ?
A30198If they differ, where lieth the difference?
A30198If thou say, Because God hath not chosen them, as well as chosen others: I answer, Nay but O man; who art thou that repliest against God?
A30198Is he therefore the Author of your perishing, or his eternal Reprobation either?
A30198Is it because the Grace that he receiveth differeth from the Grace that the Elect are saved by?
A30198Is the fault in God, if any perish?
A30198Is there unrighteousness with God?
A30198Is thine eye evil, because mine is good?
A30198May I not do what I will with mine own, saith he?
A30198Must thy Reason, nay, thy Lust, be the Ruler, Orderer, and Disposer of his Grace?
A30198Or what falshood doth it command thee to receive for truth?
A30198Or who will say unto him, What doest thou?
A30198Secondly, With how many Oaths, Declarations, Attestations, and Proclamations, is it avouched, confirmed and established?
A30198Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?
A30198Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?
A30198The Question then is, Whether the Elect and Reprobate receive a differing Grace?
A30198Thirdly, And why should not credence be given to that Gospel that is confirmed by Blood, the Blood of the Son of God himself?
A30198Touching his working with some, how invisible is it to those in whose Souls it is yet begun?
A30198V. Of the Unchangableness of Eternal Reprobation?
A30198WHy then is the Gospel offered them?
A30198Was it better then God?
A30198Was not every tittle of the Law reasonable, both in the first and second Table?
A30198Well, but if this in truth be thus, how then comes it to pass that some ● eceive it and live for ever?
A30198What more certain?
A30198What reason hath he that is left in this case to quarrel against his Maker?
A30198What shall we say then?
A30198What shall we say then?
A30198What then should be the reason?
A30198What then?
A30198What then?
A30198What unreasonable thing doth the Gospel bid thee credit?
A30198What?
A30198Whether any under eternal Reprobation have just cause to quarrel with God for not Electing of them?
A30198Whether any under eternal Reprobation have just cause to quarrel with God for not Electing of them?
A30198Whether eternal Reprobation in its self, or in its Doctrine, be in very deed an hindrance to any man in seeking the salvation of his Soul?
A30198Whether eternal Reprobation in its self, or in its Doctrine, be in very deed an hindrance to any man in seeking the salvation of his Soul?
A30198Whether in the nature, or in the degree, or in the management thereof?
A30198Whether to be Reprobated, be the same with being appointed before- hand unto eternal Condemnation?
A30198Whether to be Reprobated, be the same with being appointed before- hand unto eternal Condemnation?
A30198Who could have thought that Sin would have opposed that which is just, but especially Mercy and Grace, had we not seen it with our eyes?
A30198Who hath directed the Spirit of the Lord, or who hath been his Counsellour?
A30198Why do you not understand my speech?
A30198Yea, was it better then the Tree of Life?
A30198had he injured man at all?
A30208( saith the Apostle) or by the hearing of Faith?
A302081. the Apostle advancing the Lord Jesus, brings in this question, To which of the Angels said he at any time, thou art my Sonne?
A3020813, 14. he shall take of mine; what is that?
A3020813.?
A302082, Notes for div A30208-e9020* If works would do it, what need as there of Faith?
A3020825 But you will say, is there a man made mention of here?
A302083, 4, 5, 6, and 7. verses, the words are these, And they( viz the Disciples) said among themselves, Who shall roll away the stone?
A3020838. and you shall see it was Jesus of Nazareth; would you know who that was?
A30208Again, see Peters testimony of this sonne of Mary; When Jesus asked his Disciples, Whom say ye that I am?
A30208Ah friends put a red hot oven, and stubble together, and what work will the ● e be?
A30208And Jesus said to them, Why are ye troubled, and why do thoughts arise in your hearts?
A30208And can you prove it by the Scriptures?
A30208And first, Thou thinkest that thou art a Christian; thou shouldst be sorry else; well, but when did God shew thee that thou wert no Christian?
A30208And if you ask, how is it possible that this should be done?
A30208And indeed, who are the men that at this day are so deluded by the Quakers, and other pernicious Doctrines?
A30208And is that all?
A30208And is that all?
A30208And what shall he doe when he comes?
A30208And where is this man, that was borne of the virgin, that we may come to the father by him?
A30208Are ye so foolish, having begun in the spirit, are ye made perfect by the flesh?
A30208Art thou born again?
A30208Art thou born again?
A30208Art thou born again?
A30208Art thou born again?
A30208Art thou borne againe?
A30208Art thou borne againe?
A30208Art thou borne againe?
A30208But are you sure it is the same that we look for?
A30208But did this man rise again from the dead, that very man, with that very body wherwith he was crucified?
A30208But do not the Scriptures make mention of a Christ within?
A30208But do you think this is certain?
A30208But doe y ● u speak seriously, and in good earnest?
A30208But he said, Why are ye troubled, and why doe thoughts arise in your hearts?
A30208But how are we justified by this Mans obedience?
A30208But how shall I know that I am born again?
A30208But how shall we know when he is come?
A30208But how( may some say) doth the Divell make his de ● usions take place in the he ● rts of poore creatures?
A30208But how?
A30208But if it be changed, then how can it be the same?
A30208But shall be not lose his body before he come again?
A30208But shall we be sure of it?
A30208But what Jesus?
A30208But what is this doctrine?
A30208But when?
A30208But where should we find him?
A30208But why was he true God and true man?
A30208But ye will say, who are those ignorant persons, that shall find no favour at that day?
A30208But you will say, Doth not the Scripture say that it is the spirit of Christ that doth make manifest or convince of sin?
A30208But you will say, What, will not the Lord have mercy on ignorant soules?
A30208But you will say, Who shall stand when he appears?
A30208But you will say, doth not the Scripture make mention of a Christ within?
A30208But you will say, might they not be deceived?
A30208But you will say, what lyes are those, that the Divell beguileth poor souls with all?
A30208Do you not see that the Scepter is departed from Judah?
A30208Do you not see that those things that are spoken of as forerunners of my comming, are accompli ● hed?
A30208Do you think your eyes dazle?
A30208Doe they say that that blood of his which was shed without the gates of Jerusalem doth not wash away sin, yea all sin from him that believes?
A30208Doe you not see the time that Daniel spake of is accompli ● ● ed also?
A30208Doth your heart faile you?
A30208Hath that Christ that was with God the father before the world was, no other body but his Church?
A30208How did this Christ bring in redemption for man?
A30208How doe men come by this righteousnesse and everlasting life?
A30208How therefore, is the knowledge of the true Christ to be attained unto, that we may be saved by him?
A30208How?
A30208I, but when didst thou see thy self a lost creature for want of faith in the son of Mary?
A30208If the children of God shall scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
A30208Is it by something that is done within them, or by something done without them?
A30208Is it not the least in thy thoughts?
A30208Is that very man, with that very body, within you, yea, or no?
A30208Look unto me, and be ye saved all the ends of the earth: Why, who art thou?
A30208Might not their eyes da ● le, and they might think they did see such a thing, when indeed there was no such matter?
A30208Nay, dost thou know what original sin means?
A30208Now seeing the comming of the Lord Jesus Christ is so nigh, even at the doors, what doth this speak to all sorts of people( under heaven) but this?
A30208Now that he ascended, what is it but that he descended first into the lower parts of the earth?
A30208Q. Doe you believe it?
A30208Then I ask you further, whither that body in which he did bear our sins,( which is also called his own body) was, or is the Church of God, yea, or no?
A30208Then I ask, why did the man Christ Jesus hang upon the Cross on mount Calvary without the gates of Jerusalem, for the sins of his people?
A30208Then again I ask you, what that was in which he did bear the sins of his children?
A30208Then said they all, Art thou the Sonne of God?
A30208Then what doth this speak to the Lords own people?
A30208Then what will become of all the prophane, ignorant, scoffers, self- righteous, proud, bastard- professors in the world?
A30208Then what will become of all those that creep into the society of God people without a wedding garment on?
A30208Then what will become of all those that mock at the second coming of the Man Christ, as do the Ranters, Quakere, Drunkards, and the like?
A30208Therefore judge nothing before the time; what time is that?
A30208Well, but is there no way to come to the father of mercies but by this man that was borne of the virgin?
A30208What Scripture can be plainer spoken then this?
A30208What Scripture have you to prove, that Christ is, or was crucified within you, dead within you, risen within you,& ascended within you?
A30208What doth he there?
A30208What is the Church of God redeemed by, from the curse of the law?
A30208What is this faith that doth thus justifie the sinner?
A30208What time is this th ● ● Jesus speaks of?
A30208What was that?
A30208Who hath told it from ancient times?
A30208Who is he?
A30208Why did he rise againe from the dead with that very body?
A30208Why do you doubt of it?
A30208Why where is he then?
A30208You will say, Are these graves spoken of here, the graves that are made in the earth?
A30208and dost thou not rejoyce in secret that thou art the same that thou ever wert?
A30208and in the light of the spirit of Christ see that thou wert under the wrath of God because of original sin?
A30208and when did the spirit of Christ convince thee of sin, because thou didst not believe in him?
A30208have not ● the Lord?
A30208if the very looks of God be so terrible, what will his blows be, think you?
A30208is there no way to come to God but by the faith of Him?
A30208or how doth the ignorance discover it selfe?
A30208or the Gospel, which is the word of faith preached by us?
A30208to judge the world?
A30208what, doe you thinke that I am a spirit?
A30208when didst thou see that?
A30208why, it will be said unto them, Friends, how came you hither?
A30208why, when the Lord comes; what will he do?
A30118Also when he comes to speak to Saints, how doth he make himself vile before them?
A30118And Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?
A30118And if there is so much in the Pride of his Countenance, what is there think you, in the Pride of his Heart?
A30118And now he begins to Tremble: Adam, where art thou?
A30118And so with Paul, who tremblingly said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?
A30118And what delight, what content, what pleasure can God take in such men?
A30118And what follows?
A30118And what was the Conclusion?
A30118And why must he make his Arrows sharp, and all that the Heart may with this Sword and these Arrows, he shot, wounded, and made to bleed?
A30118Are any of your Children ill?
A30118But I say, What an amazing thing is this?
A30118But I say, what''s the Reason some so prize what others so despise, since they both stand in need of the same Grace, and Mercy of God in Christ?
A30118But could that heal it, could he not taste, truly taste, or rightly relish this Forgiveness?
A30118But do these People know what they do?
A30118But does the Carnal World covet this, this Spirit, and the blessed Graces of it?
A30118But how came he to be affected with this?
A30118But how doth he take that away, but by a severe Chastising of his Soul for it, until he has made him weary of it?
A30118But now, how shall this man be Reclaimed from this Sin?
A30118But what is this Iniquity?
A30118But what necessity is there, that the Heart must be broken?
A30118But what should a Christian do, when God has broke his heart, to keep it tender?
A30118But what was Paul, but a broken Hearted and a contrite Sinner?
A30118But what''s all this to one that neither sees his Sickness, that sees nothing of a Wound?
A30118But what''s the matter?
A30118But which is the way to make one that is Wild, or a Mad man, Sober?
A30118But why so?
A30118But, Do the Broken in Heart believe this?
A30118But, do they believe, that thus it is with them?
A30118But, do you think, that these People did ever feel the Power and Majesty of the Word of God, to break their Hearts?
A30118But, how now?
A30118But, would he believe it?
A30118Can not a Man be Saved unless his Heart be broken?
A30118Do not I fill Heaven and Earth saith the Lord?
A30118Hath the Lord as great delight in burnt- Offerings and Sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord?
A30118He is indeed the Great Deliverer: But what''s a Deliverer to them that never saw themselves in Bondage, as was said before?
A30118Here is nought but open War, acts of Hostility, and shameful Rebellion on the Sinners side; and what delight can God take in that?
A30118Here therefore is suitableness, Can two walk together, saith God, except they are agreed?
A30118How am I surrounded with Fear?
A30118How many beholds are here?
A30118How many strugling fits, had Israel with God in the Wilderness?
A30118How many times are some men put in mind of DEATH, by Sickness upon themselves, by Graves, by the Death of others?
A30118How many times are they put in mind of HELL, by reading the Word, by lashes of Conscience; and by some, that go roaring in Despair out of this World?
A30118How many times are they put in mind of the Day of Judgment?
A30118How many times did they declare, that there they feared him not?
A30118How many times hast thou had Heaven and Salvation offer''d to thee freely, wouldst thou but break thy league with this great enemy of God?
A30118How sayst thou Sinner?
A30118How shall he be brought, wrought, and made to be out of Love with it?
A30118Is not my Word ▪ says God, like a Fire, and like ● Hammer, that breaketh the Ro ● ● in pieces?
A30118Is not this a Truth?
A30118Let me speak unto thee, Is it a time to take Pleasure, and to Recreate thy self in any thing, before thou hast Mourned and been Sorry for thy Sins?
A30118Must this Fool be made Wise?
A30118Now, what shall God do to save these Men?
A30118O God, said Heman, I have cryed Day and Night to thee: But when?
A30118O say they, my Sins, my Sins, my Soul, my Soul: How am I loaden with Guilt?
A30118Of God, do I say?
A30118Or what Profit shall I have, if I keep his Commandments?
A30118Say they, If our Iniquities be upon us, and we pine away in them, how can we then live?
A30118Secondly, Is this a truth?
A30118She told the No: VVhat, said I, is your Husband amiss, or do you go back in the VVorld?
A30118Sinner, Hast thou obtained a broken Heart?
A30118Solomon says, The Word of a King is as the Roaring of a Lyon; and if so, what is the Word of God?
A30118Sword upon his Thigh?
A30118That the man that truly comes to God in order thereto, has had his Heart broken?
A30118The Broken Hearted desireth Gods Company, when wilt thou come unto me, saith he?
A30118There be many, says the Psalmist, speak after this sort: But what says the distressed man?
A30118Think therefore with thy self thus, What was it that at first did wound my heart?
A30118Thus saith the Lord, Heaven is my Throne, and the Earth is my Footstool, where is the house that ye build me, or where is the place of my rest?
A30118Time was indeed, he could hector, even hector it with God himself, saying, What''s the Almighty, that we should serve him?
A30118What Humility, what Self- abasing Thoughts, doth a Broken Heart produce?
A30118What can a Man do to procure Christ, to procure Faith or Love?
A30118What care they for God?
A30118What care they for his Word?
A30118What now must be done?
A30118What shall I do?
A30118What''s Man, that thou art mindful of him?
A30118When David danced before the Ark of God also, how did he discover his Nakedness to the disliking of his Wife?
A30118Where doth it lay its Head, but in their Laps?
A30118Wherefore a self- righteous man, is but a painted Satan, or a Devil in fine Cloathes; but thinks he so of himself?
A30118Wherein is he to be accounted of?
A30118Whether goes the Child, when it catcheth harm, but to its Father, to its Mother?
A30118Who knows what will become of the Ark of God?
A30118Who smells the ● tink of Sin?
A30118Why is the Conversion of the Soul compared to the grafting of a Tree if that may be done without cutting?
A30118Why so?
A30118Yea, why is he commanded to let it be so, if the People would bow and fall kindly under him, and heartily implore his Grace without it?
A30118are we better than they?
A30118has God bestowed a Contrite Spirit upon thee?
A30118that is, he is so; Is he a pleasant Child?
A30153A man that nameth the name of Christ, and that departeth not from iniquity; to whom may he be compared?
A30153A son honoureth his Father, and a servant his Master: If then I be a Father, where is mine honour?
A30153A work, did I say?
A30153And again, Am I a Sea, or a Whale, that thou settest a watch over me?
A30153And he that is altogether a stranger to these things, how dwelleth the Love of God in him?
A30153And how can a man that went last time out of his Closet to be nought, have the face to come thither again?
A30153And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another mans, who will commit unto you that which is your own?
A30153And is hope, that this day is approaching, a reviving cordial to thee?
A30153And what need was there of any of this, if Paul could, as he would, have departed from iniquity?
A30153And what says John in his first Epistle, and first Chapter?
A30153And why call ye me Lord, Lord, saith he, and do not the things which I say?
A30153And why, follow the apish fashions of the world; hath the God o ● wisdom set them on foot among us?
A30153And wilt thou pursue the dry stubble?
A30153Are not, now adays, the bulk of professors like those that strive at a Gnat and swallow a Camel?
A30153Art thou a professor?
A30153Ask thy heart, what evil dost thou see in sin?
A30153Besides, What greater contempt can be cast upon Christ than by such wordy Professors is cast upon him?
A30153But I ask, how came nature to be so weak, but through sin?
A30153But do you think it is because of the first?
A30153But how little of this is found among men?
A30153But is there therefore no need at all of good Works, because a Man is justified before God without them?
A30153But perhaps some may ask me, what iniquity they must depart from, that religiously name the name of Christ?
A30153But say one, would you have us singular?
A30153But thou wilt say unto me, Why do men profess the name of Christ, that love not to depart from iniquity?
A30153But what man in the world can do this, whose heart is not seasoned with the love of God, and the love of Christ?
A30153But what shall I do, I can not depart therefrom as I should?
A30153But what sinners are these?
A30153But what unbecoming language is this for the Children of the same Father, members of the same body, and heirs of the same glory to be accustomed to?
A30153But what''s the reason?
A30153But whither doth he draw them?
A30153But why?
A30153Can repentance be where godly sorrow is not?
A30153Dost thou profess the name of Christ, and dost thou pretend to be a man departing from iniquity?
A30153Dost thou profess the name of Christ, and dost thou pretend to be a man departing from iniquity?
A30153Dost thou religiously name the name of Christ?
A30153For a man to be content with this kind of Faith, and to look to go to Salvation by it: what to God is a greater provocation?
A30153For how can the servant of this my Lord, talk with this my Lord?
A30153For, What iniquity is, who knows not?
A30153How is iniquity in thine eye, when severed from the guilt and punishment that attends it?
A30153How look thy duties in thine eyes, I mean thy duties which thou doest in the service of God?
A30153How much hast thou be ● n grieved to see others break Gods Law, and to find temptations in thy self to do it?
A30153How sick art thou of sin?
A30153I ask again, wherein dost thou think, the blessedness of Heaven consists?
A30153I have said it, nay a thousand times, and yet it offereth it self and its deceits to me again, what would you have me do?
A30153I say wouldest thou go to Heaven, because''t is a place that''s Holy, or because''t is a place remote from the pains of Hell?
A30153I say, what wilt thou say to this?
A30153I say, where is the honour they should put upon them?
A30153If the salt has lost its savour, wherewith shall it be salted?
A30153Is it b ● cause they think themselves u ● worthy of their holy fellowship?
A30153Is it because thou wouldest be saved from Hell, or because thou wouldest be freed from sin?
A30153Is it not common now adays for Parents to be brought into bondage, and servitude by their children?
A30153Is the Truth?
A30153Mark a Just man, a Righteous man, his righ ● eous soul,& c. But how obtained he this char ● cter?
A30153Moreover, I would ask with what face thou canst look the Lord Jesus in the face, whose name thou hast profaned by thine iniquity?
A30153Now some may say, But what shall we do to depart from iniq ● ity?
A30153Now this is a daring thing: I know their lies, saith he: and shall he no ● recompence for this?
A30153O wretched man that I am,& c. What complaints, what confessions, what bewailings of weakness is here?
A30153Or art thou like the Ostrich, whom God hath deprived of wisdom and has hardned her heart against her Young?
A30153Samson withstood his Dulilah for a while, but she got the mastery of him at the last; why so?
A30153That it cleaves to the best, who knows not?
A30153That it is disgraceful to profession, who knows not?
A30153The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life: but what is the fruit of the wicked?
A30153To be short, what says Paul in the seventh to the Romans?
A30153To speak nothing of the first Table, where is he that hath his love manifested by the second?
A30153To what end should such be comprehended in this exhortation of his?
A30153What Nation is there so great, who hath God so nigh unto them as his people have, and as he is in all things that we call upon him for?
A30153What agreement then hath the temple of God with Idols?
A30153What better melody can be heard?
A30153What better words can come from man?
A30153What is the cause?
A30153What man would count himself beloved of his Wife, that knows she hath a bosom for another?
A30153What meaneth the heat of this great anger?
A30153What means dost thou use to mortifie thy sins?
A30153What shall I say?
A30153What then?
A30153Where is Paul that would not eat meat while the world standeth, lest he made his brother offend?
A30153Where is the man that is zealous of moral holiness?
A30153Where is the man that walketh with his Cross upon his shoulder?
A30153Where shall the fruits of repentance be found?
A30153Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean?
A30153Whom dost thou pass in beauty, saith God?
A30153Why wouldest thou go to heaven?
A30153Wilt thou break a leaf driven to and fro?
A30153Yea, couldest thou be willing even now to partake of the means that would help thee to ● hat means, that can cure thee of this disease?
A30153Yea, do not professors teach the wicked ones to be wicked?
A30153Yea, they shall suck the poyson of Asps, and the Vipers tongue shall slay them, notwithstanding all their profession?
A30153Yea, where is that rich man that( to his power) durst say as Job does, as is recorded in those Chapters quoted in the Margent?
A30153and if I be a Master, where is my fear?
A30153and says another would you have u ● make our selves ridiculous?
A30153and therefore that it ought to be departed from, who knows not?
A30153is it Covetousness?
A30153is it as sepeparate from these, beauteous, or illfavoured?
A30153is it fleshly lust?
A30153is it in the holiness that is there; or in the freedom that is there from Hell?
A30153of the professors that are wicked?
A30153or art thou through the ignorance that is in thee as unacquainted with these things?
A30153or can repentance be where the fruits of repentance are not?
A30153or can that be called a justifying Faith that has not for its Fruit, good Works?
A30153or is it because the Devil and wicked men( the inventors of these vain toyes) have out- witted the law of God?
A30153saith the Lord of Hosts, unto you, O Priests, that despise my name?
A30153shall that knowledg of him I say be counted such, as only causes the Soul to behold hold but moveth it not to good Works?
A30153to their aged and worn- out P ● rents?
A30153what says James in the third Chapter of his Epistle?
A30153where are they that feed the hungry, and cloath the naked, and send portions to them, for whom nothing is prepared?
A30153wherein art thou bettered by the profession, than the wicked?
A30153wherewith shall the salt be salted?
A30153who speaks to their aged Parents with that due regard to that relalation, to their age, to their worn- out condition, as becomes them?
A30153will it please thee when thou shalt see that thou hast brought forth Children to the murderer?
A30203& c. appear with gladness against thee at the terrible day?
A3020326. saith he, Nevertheless they were disobedient for all thy goodness towards them, and rebelled against thee,( but how?)
A302036. that is comparable to the pleasures, profits, and glory of this World?
A30203Again, If they hear not Moses, and the Prophets,& c. As if he had said, Thou would''st have me send one from the Dead unto them, what needs that?
A30203All they, that is, that are in hell shall say, Art thou become weak as we?
A30203Amaziah having sinned against the Lord, he sends to him a Prophet to reprove him: But Amaziah sayes, ● orbear, wherefore shouldst thou be smitten?
A30203And did they make them welcome?
A30203And do you think the Lord will sit still( as I may say) and let thy Tongue run as it lists, and yet never bring you to an account for the same?
A30203And must we be all alone?
A30203And why so?
A30203And why?
A30203Art thou become like unto us?
A30203Art thou such an one as regards not these things?
A30203Art thou troubled with cross Children, cross Relations, cross Neighbours?
A30203As first, Dost thou delight to sin against plain commands?
A30203As if he should say, What need have they that one should be sent to them from the dead?
A30203Besides, was the Gospel so freely, so frequently, so fully tendered to thee, and yet hast thou rejected all these Things?
A30203But for all this, how thick, and by heaps, do these wretches walk up and down our streets?
A30203But now, when didst thou feel the power of this first part of the Scripture, the Law, so mighty as to strike thee dead?
A30203But why is it said, Let him dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue?
A30203But ye ungodly fathers, how are your ungodly children, roaring now in hell?
A30203But you will say, How doth the Law kill and strike dead the poor Creature?
A30203But you will say, What needs all this ado, and why is all this time and pains spent in speaking to this, that is surely believed already?
A30203Canst thou read this, O thou wicked sinner, and yet go in sin?
A30203Canst thou think of this, and defer Repentance one hour longer?
A30203Consider thus with thy self; Would I be glad to have all, every one of my sins to come in against me to inflame the justice of God against me?
A30203Cry, why so?
A30203Did we not found an Alarum in thine Ears, by the Trumpet of God''s Word day after day?
A30203Did we not run, ride, labour, and strive abundantly( if it might have been) for the good of thy Soul,( though now a damned Soul?
A30203Did we not tell thee of these Things?
A30203Did we not tell thee sin would damn thy Soul?
A30203Did we not tell thee, that without Conversion, there was no Salvation?
A30203Did we not venture our Goods, our Names, our Lives?
A30203Didst thou never hear of the intollerable Roarings of the Damned Ones that are therein?
A30203Do but mark the words, All Scripture is profitable: All, take it where you will, and in what place you will; All is profitable, for what?
A30203Doest thou believe the Scripture to be the word of God?
A30203Dost thou believe the Scriptures to be the word of God?
A30203Dost thou examine thy self whether thou be in the Faith or no, having a command in Scripture so to do?
A30203Dost thou give diligence to make thy Calling and Election sure, because God commandeth it in Scripture?
A30203Dost thou not hear them say, Send one from the dead to prevent my father, my brother, and my fathers house from coming into this place of torment?
A30203Examine again Dost thou labour after those qualifications that the Scriptures do describe a child of God by?
A30203Examine, dost thou stand in awe of sinning against God, because he hath in the Scriptures commanded thee to abstain from it?
A30203For had ye believed Moses( saith he) ye would have believed me?
A30203From what?
A30203Hark, dost thou not hear the bitter Cryes of them that are but newly gone before?
A30203Hast thou valued sin at a higher rate than thy soul?
A30203Have they not Moses and the Prophets?
A30203He that was in darkness, or he that was in light?
A30203He that was in everlasting joy, or he that was in everlasting torments?
A30203How long ye simple ones, will you love simplicity?
A30203How long?
A30203How loth wilt thou be, to be thrust away from the Gates of Heaven, and how loth wilt thou be to be deprived of the Mercy of God?
A30203How many Souls do you think Balaam, with his deceit, will have to answer for?
A30203How many Souls have they been the means of destroying, by their Ignorance, and corrupt Doctrine?
A30203How many blows and wounds doth it cause?
A30203How many poor Souls hath Bonner to answer for think you?
A30203How many times doth it( as James saith) curse man?
A30203How many, Mahomet?
A30203How many, the Pharisees, That hired the Souldiers to say the Disciples stole away Jesus?
A30203How oft didst thou read the sweet counsels and admonitions of the Gospel, to accept of the grace of God?
A30203How often didst thou hear us tell thee of these Things?
A30203How often didst thou read the promises, yea, the free promises of the common salvation?
A30203How rightly hath God met with thee?
A30203How shall we escape if we neglect so great Salvation?
A30203How so?
A30203How willingly wilt thou set foot forward towards the Lake of Fire?
A30203How willingly would''st thou hang on them, and not let them go?
A30203How would we have laboured to have closed in with it?
A30203I remember he alledged many a Scripture, but those I valued not; the Scriptures, thought I, what are they?
A30203I ● there hope?
A30203If you say, No: What means your sowr carriage to the People of God?
A30203Lazarus, Who was he?
A30203Men and brethren, what shall we do to be saved?
A30203Mother, can not you do me some good?
A30203Nay, I do not like of that answer; Hear Moses and the Prophets?
A30203No, But mocked the Messengers of God, and despised his words: And was that all?
A30203O Father, can not you help me?
A30203O Lord Jesus, what a Load didst thou carry?
A30203O how righteously doth his Sentence pass upon thee?
A30203O how will the Drunkard cry, for leading their Neighbours into drunkenness?
A30203O therefore, will not this aggravate thy torment?
A30203Oh how unwilling wilt thou be, to let thy Father go to Heaven without thee, thy Mother or Friends,& c. go to Heaven without thee?
A30203One would have thought that this had been a small request, a small courtesie, one drop of water, what is that?
A30203Or how is it with thy soul?
A30203Secondly, Dost thou slight and scorn the counsels contained in Scriptures, and continue in so doing?
A30203Shall I content my self with a Heaven, that will last no longer than my life ▪ time?
A30203Shall not then these mournfull groans pierce thy flinty heart?
A30203Soul consider, is it not miserable to lose Heaven for 20, 30, or 40 Years sinning against God?
A30203The Record, you will say, what is that?
A30203The promises that are in the Gospel, Oh, how do they comfort them?
A30203The tongue, how much mischief will it stir up 〈 ◊ 〉 a very little time?
A30203There was a certain rich man,& c. But why are the ungodly held forth under the notion of a rich man?
A30203Think thus with thy self; What ▪ shall I lose a long Heaven for short pleasure?
A30203Think you ▪ that they upon whom the ● ● ower of Siloe fell, were sinn ● rs above others?
A30203To whom did he swear that they should not enter into his rest?
A30203Was thy Soul worth so much, and didst thou so little regard it?
A30203Wast thou not told of Hell- fire, those intollerable flames?
A30203Were the Thunder- Claps of the Law so terrible, and didst thou so slight them?
A30203What good will all my companions, fellow jesters, jeerers, lyars, drunkards, and all my wantons do me?
A30203What good will my profits do me?
A30203What sayest thou sinner, will not this perswade thine heart, nor make thee bethink thy self?
A30203What, shall I lose Heaven for this World?
A30203What, shall I regard Lazarus?
A30203What, shall I so far dishonour my fair sumptuous and gay house, with such a scabbed creep- hedg as he?
A30203Why do you look on them, as if you would eat them up?
A30203Why?
A30203Will it not be glorious for thee to be in glory with them, while others are in unu ● terable torments?
A30203Will it not be glorious to enter then with the Angels and Saints into that glorious Kingdome?
A30203Will my sins do me good then?
A30203Wilt thou be like that simple one named in the 7. of Proverbs, That will be drawn to the slaughter by the cord of a silly lust?
A30203Wilt thou be like the Bird that hasteth to the snare of the Fowler?
A30203Wilt thou be like the silly flie, that is not quiet, unless she be either intangled in the spiders web, or burned in the Candle?
A30203Wilt thou stop thine ears, and shut thy eyes?
A30203Would I be glad to have all, and every one of the Ten Commandements, to discharge themselves against my soul?
A30203Wouldest thou be glad to be kept out of heaven with a back well cloathed, and a belly well filled with the dainties of this world?
A30203Wouldest thou be glad to have all thy good things in thy life time, to have thy heaven to last no longer then while thou dost live in this world?
A30203Wouldest thou be willing to be deprived of eternal happiness and felicity?
A30203Yea, did we not even kill our selves, with our earnest intreatings of thee to consider of thine Estate, and by Christ to escape this dreadful day?
A30203Yet did we not tell thee, that God, out of his love to sinners, sent Christ to die for them, that they might( by coming to him) be saved?
A30203You will say, what is that?
A30203[ 10], 199 p. Printed for F. Smith..., London:[ 1666?]
A30203and several filthy blind Priests?
A30203and what good will my vanities do, when death sayes he will have no nay?
A30203and wilt thou not regard?
A30203and ye scorners delight in scorning, and ye fools hate knowledg?
A30203but thou wouldst not, thou regardest it not, thou didst slight all?
A30203have they not Moses and the Prophets?
A30203have they not had my Ministers and Servants sent unto them, and coming as from me?
A30203how comfortable to those that believe them?
A30203how didst thou discover thy Love to Man in thy thus suffering?
A30203how would I affect his Doctrine, and close in with it?
A30203how would I square my life thereby?
A30203sc ● ubbed, beggarly Lazarus?
A30203shall I buy the pleasures of this world at so dear a rate, as to lose my soul for the obtaining of that?
A30203such a promise, and such a promise, O how sweet is it?
A30203than God, Christ, Angels, Saints, and Communion with them in Eternal Blessedness and Glory?
A30203that some body would stop them from coming, lest they also come into this place of Torment, and be damned as I am: How will it torment me?
A30203that you did but believe this, that you did but consider this, and say within your selves, What, shall I be contented with my portion in this World?
A30203what place in Hell will be hot enough for thee to have thy Soul put into, if thou shalt persist, or go on still to adde Iniquity to Iniquity?
A30203what, seek for the living among the dead?
A30203whither shall I go when I die?
A30203who would not be in the rich mans state?
A30203will these help to turn the hand of God from inflicting his fierce anger upon me?
A30203will they be able to help me when I come to fetch my last breath?
A30203will they help to ease the pains of hell?
A30203▪ T is true, I do love my sins, my lusts, and pleasures; but what good will they do me at the day of death, and of judgement?
A30202& c. And what incouragement has a man to suffer for Christ, whose heart can not believe, and whose Soul he can not commit to God to keep it?)
A30202( This is the victory, even your Faith: and who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth?
A3020219.8,& c.) And what a good nights lodging had Jacob, when he fled from the face of his Brother Esau?
A30202?
A30202A Creator, what is it that a Creator can not do?
A30202A faithful Creator; what is it that one that is faithful will not do?
A30202A faithful man will encourage one much, how much more should the faithfulness of God encourage us?
A30202A good cause, what is that?
A30202A life regulated by a moral Law, what hurt is in that?
A30202A word to wrap up the Text with, that is as full of good, as the Sun is of light, what can be fi ● ter spoken?
A30202And if ye be followers of that which is good, who will harm you?
A30202And is all this no good?
A30202And this is that which Peter intends when he saith, And if ye be followers of that which is good, who will harm you?
A30202As, who should say, my Brethren, are you troubled and persecuted for your Faith?
A30202Besides, Oppression makes a wise man mad; and when a man is mad, what evils will he not do?
A30202But I say, where is thy love to thine enemy?
A30202But he answereth, what mean ye to weep and to break my heart?
A30202But hold, stay, wherefore?
A30202But how came the Apostle by this confidence of his well- being, and of his share in another world?
A30202But how can that be, since no affliction for the present seems joyous?
A30202But if I fly, some will blame me: what must I do now?
A30202But may we not flie in a time of persecution?
A30202But what is committing of the Soul to God?
A30202But whence came this, but from an inward feeling by faith of the love of God, and of Christ, which passeth knowledge?
A30202But why could it not be that they should perish other where?
A30202But why not meddle with Cain, since he was a murderer?
A30202But why rejoyce in this?
A30202Can no good thing come to us out of this?
A30202Canst thou, after a due examination of thy self, say that as to these things thou art innocent, and clear?
A30202Do you suffer?
A30202Doth not God by these things( oft- times) call our sins to remembrance, and provoke us to amendment of life?
A30202Faith in Christ: what harm can that do?
A30202For, First, Is it better that thou receive judgment in this World, or that thou stay for it to be condemned with the ungodly in the next?
A30202Fourthly, What conviction of thy goodness can the actions that flow from such a spirit, give unto observers?
A30202Gaal mocked at Abimelech, and said, Who is Abimelech, that we should serve him?
A30202Hast thou escaped?
A30202Hast thou for the sake of thy faith, and profession thereof, lost thy part in the World?
A30202Hast thou lost thy Friend for the sake of thy profession?
A30202Hast thou made it thy business to give unto God the things that are Gods, and unto Caesar, the things that are his, according as God has commanded?
A30202Hast thou taken delight in being defrauded and beguiled?
A30202Have it?
A30202Have they lost a good frame of heart?
A30202Have they lost their peace with the World?
A30202Have they lost their spiritual defence, do they lie too open to their spiritual foes?
A30202Have we not talked of what he did at the red Sea, and in the land of Ham many years ago, and have we forgot him now?
A30202He was God, a Creator, then; and is he not God now?
A30202Hence such a time is rightly said to be a time to try us, or to find out what we are, and is there no good in this?
A30202How can he be a victor over himself, that is led up and down by the nose, by his own passions?
A30202How is it, dost thou shew most mercy to thy Dog, or to thine enemy?
A30202How was the bloudy Spirit of Saul trod down, when David met him at the mouth of the Cave, and also at the hill Hach ● lah?
A30202How was the hostile Spirit of Esau trod down of God; when he came out to meet his poor naked brother, with no less than four hundred armed men?
A30202I believe that Christ will save me; what hurt is this to my Neighbour?
A30202I love Christ because he will save me; what hurt is this to any?
A30202I say, was it not worth being in the Furnace, and in the Den, to see such things as these?
A30202I will for this worship Christ as he has bid me; what hurt is this to any body?
A30202I, saith he, even I am he that comforteth you; who art thou that thou shouldest be afraid of a man that shall die?
A30202If the counsel of Gamaliel was good when given to the enemies of Gods people, why not fit to be given to Christians themselves?
A30202If ye be buffeted for your faults, for what Gods word calls faults, What thank have you( from God, or good men) tho''you take it patiently?
A30202Is he that is led away with divers lusts, a victor?
A30202Is not such a day, the day that bends us, humbleth us, and that makes us bow before God, for our faults committed in our prosperity?
A30202Is there nothing of God, of his Wisdom and Power and goodness to be seen in Thunder, and Lightning, in Hailstones?
A30202Is thy body to be disfigured, dismembred, starved, hanged or burned for the faith and profession of the Gospel?
A30202Is thy life at stake, is that like to go for thy profession, for thy harmless profession of the Gospel?
A30202Noah and Lot, who so holy as they, in the day of their affliction?
A30202Noah and Lot, who so idle as they in the day of their prosperity?
A30202Now ne ● ● ● sity walks about the streets, crying, who is on the Lords side?
A30202O that saying of God to them of old,( Why cryest thou for thine affliction?
A30202Or shall it come to save us?
A30202Pilate''s question what is truth?
A30202Rejoycing in Spirit for the hope of the life to come, by Christ, who will that harm?
A30202Secondly, Are things thus ordered?
A30202Secondly, Is it so?
A30202Shall God display his glory before us, under the character, and Title of a Creator?
A30202Shall Iron break the northern Iron, and the Steel?
A30202Shall Saints then, like slaves, be afraid of their God the Creator, of their own God, when he renteth the heavens, and comes down?
A30202Shall we deserve correction?
A30202So then, what is the Ax, that it should boast it self against him that heweth therewith?
A30202The Smith, what is he?
A30202The thing formed may not say to him that formed it, why hast thou made me thus?
A30202The waster, what''s that?
A30202Thinkest thou not, who readest these lines, that all of these who had before committed their Soul to God to keep, were the fittest folk to die?
A30202Was the Lord displeased against the rivers?
A30202We know God, and he is our God, our own God, of whom, or of what should we be afraid?
A30202Were there no enemies but in Jerusalem?
A30202What is intended by, Let him commit the keeping of his soul to God, but that the sufferer should indeed leave that great care with him?
A30202What now?
A30202What sin is it that a child of God is not liable to commit( excepting that which is the sin unpardonable)?
A30202What will men say, if you shrink and whinch, and take your sufferings unquietly: but that if you your selves were uppermost, you would persecute also?
A30202What?
A30202What?
A30202When a man thinks he has only to prepare for an assault by footmen, how shall he contend with horses?
A30202When the earth was his Couch, the Stone his pillow, the Heavens his canopy, and the shades of the night his Curtains?
A30202Where is Repentance, Reformation, and amendment of life amongst us?
A30202Wherefore has he given us grace, is it that we should live by sence?
A30202Wherefore has he sometimes visited us, is it that our hearts might be estranged from him, and that we still should love the World?
A30202Wherefore he now begins to fall out again, for as yet the enmity is not removed?
A30202Wherefore saith he thus?
A30202Wherefore say thus to thy Soul, thou that art like to suffer for righteousness, How is it with the most inward parts of my Soul, what is there?
A30202Wherefore then should we complain?
A30202Wherefore, Thirdly, Is it for righteousness sake that thou sufferest?
A30202Whither canst thou go?
A30202Whither wilt thou go?
A30202Who art thou, that thou shouldest be afraid of a man that shall die, and of the Son of man that shall be made as grass?
A30202Who can reach them, touch them, destroy them, but the Creator?
A30202Who could have hoped that Israel should have returned again from the land, from the hand, and from under the Tyranny of the King of Babylon?
A30202Why do I haunt, and frequent places; and ordinances appointed for worship?
A30202Why do I hear?
A30202Why do I pray?
A30202Why do I read?
A30202Why then should we think th ● t our innocent lives will exempt us from sufferings, or that troubles shall do us such harm?
A30202Yea, do we not grow worse and worse?
A30202and are we afraid of our God?
A30202and be quiet; and shall we take no notice of this?
A30202and doth he take charge of them as a Creator?
A30202and is goodness seen in thy seeking the life, or the damage of thy enemy?
A30202and shall we yet fear man?
A30202and that we might hope for good things to come out of such providences, that to sence, look as if themselves would eat up and devour all?
A30202and what if he is thus come down to fetch us to himself?
A30202and will he not be as good to us, as to them that have gone before us?
A30202and yet doth it yield no good unto us?
A30202are Gods people a suffering people?
A30202are you in affliction for your profession?
A30202do they want a right frame of spirit?
A30202dost thou desire to be with them?
A30202for, as thou actest not ought, but thy waspishness can be seen?
A30202have they no more peace with this World?
A30202how then can we be offended at things by which we reap so much good, and at things that God makes so profitable for us?
A30202if he be not able to keep it in his hand, and from the power of him that seeks the soul to destroy it?
A30202in Storms, and darkness and tempests?
A30202is God the God unto whom they that suffer according to his will, are to commit the keeping of their Souls, the Creator?
A30202is he that is a servant to corruption, a victor?
A30202is it because I love holiness?
A30202is the whole World set against thee for thy love to God, to Christ, his cause, and righteousness?
A30202laugh: art thou taken?
A30202or can we be without such holy appointments of God?
A30202or if he looks no further than to horses, what will he do at the swellings of Jordan?
A30202or that thou should''st receive it at the hand of God, when the day shall come that every man, shall have praise of him for their doings?
A30202or the Saw, that it should magnifie it self against him that shaketh it?
A30202shall he do this to us, when we are under a suffering condition, and that on purpose that we might commit our Souls to him in well doing?
A30202to thy Swine, or to the poor?
A30202was thine anger against the rivers?
A30202was thy wrath against the Sea, that thou didst ride upon thy horses, and thy chariots of salvation?
A30202were there no good men but at Jerusalem?
A30202what designs, desires, and teachings out are there?
A30202what, if we must go now to Heaven?
A30202when thine anger has put thee upon being unquiet, where is thy long- suffering?
A30202where also is thy sweet, meek and gentle spirit?
A30202where is thy Joy, under the Cross?
A30202where is thy peace?
A30202whose hungry belly hast thou fed?
A30202whose naked body hast thou clothed?
A30202would promote righteousness; because I love to see godliness shew it self in others, and because I would feel more of the power of it in my self?
A30202wouldest thou fit upon their place of ease?
A301381, 2. it must have place here or no where: why are those things called first Principles, if not first to be believed, and practised?
A301385. or to put them to shame before all that see your acts?
A30138Again, This is that which he seeketh for among the Corinthians; If the dead rise not at all, saith he, why then were you baptized for the dead?
A30138And all the rest they baptized, were they not left free to joyn themselves for their convenience, and Edification?
A30138And did ever God send an Ordinance to be a Pest and Plague to his People?
A30138And doth not the Lord as well require, the sign of Baptism now, as of Cirumcision then?
A30138And now I ask, What was the reason that God continued his Presence with this Church notwithstanding this transgression?
A30138And why is MY Rank so mean, that the most gracious and godly among you, may not duly and soberly consider of what I have said?
A30138And why may not I give it the Name of a Shew; when you call it a symbole, and compare it to a Gentleman''s Livery?
A30138And, are there no publick Christians, or publick Christian- Meetings, but them of your way?
A30138Are not my words verbatim these?
A30138Are not you commanded to keep out of the Church all that are not circumcised?
A30138As to the Query, What reason is there, why the Lord should suffer any of his Ordinances to be lost?
A30138B. C. of a Christian, and the beginning of Christianity, Milk for Babes, if it be no matter whether Baptism be practised or no?
A30138Because they are not baptized; have they not Jesus Christ?
A30138Besides, To what particular Church was the Epistle to the Hebrews wrote?
A30138Besides, the Proposition is universal, why then should you be the chief intended?
A30138But I say, why did John call them Vipers?
A30138But I would ask these men, If the Word of God came out from them?
A30138But are there not with you, even with you sins against the Lord your God?
A30138But are these words of Faith, or do the Scriptures only help you to seeming Imports, and me- hap- soes for your practice?
A30138But doth that install it in that place and dignity, that was never intended for it?
A30138But good Sir, are you now for unwritten verities?
A30138But good Sir, why so short- winded?
A30138But how came Diotrephes so lately into our parts?
A30138But how will you prove that there was a Church, a rightly constituted Church at Rome, besides that in Aquila''s house?
A30138But must not they use, and enjoy what they know, because they know not all?
A30138But say you, We have now found an Advocate for Sin against GOD, in the breach of one of HIS holy Commands?
A30138But say you, Wherein lies the force of this man''s Argument against Baptism as to its place, worth, and continuance?
A30138But say you, Who taught you to divide betwixt Christ and his Precepts, that you word it at such a rate?
A30138But suppose they were all Baptized, because they had light therein, what then?
A30138But what acts of disobedience do we indulge them in?
A30138But what if a man want Light in his Duty to the Poor?
A30138But what if a man want Light in the Supper?
A30138But what is there in my Proposition, that men, considerate, can be offended at?
A30138But what need I grant you that which can not be proved?
A30138But what was the Spirit of Diotrephes?
A30138But what, if when he hath used it, he still continueth dark about it; what will you advise him now?
A30138But what?
A30138But what?
A30138But where are they here forbidden to teach them other Truths, before they be baptized?
A30138But why can you indulge the Baptists in many acts of disobedience?
A30138But why did you not Answer these parts of my Argument?
A30138But why did you not shew me my evil in thus calling it, when opposed to the Substance, and the thing signified?
A30138But why do YOU throw out FAITH?
A30138But why not consult with others, is Wisdom to die with you?
A30138But why so much offended at this?
A30138But why would they take from us the Holy Scriptures?
A30138But will any object; they can not believe that God receiveth the unbaptized Saints?
A30138But you ask me, If outward and bodily Conformity be become a crime?
A30138But you ask, Is my peace maintained in a way of disobedience?
A30138But you bid me tell you, What I mean by Spirit- Baptism?
A30138But you descant; Is Baptism none of the Laws of Christ?
A30138But you object, Must our Love to the unbaptized indulge them in an act of disobedience?
A30138But, I say, wherein is the Proposition offensive?
A30138But, Sir, Are none but those of your way the publick Christians?
A30138But, Sir, who have I pleaded for, in the denyal of any one Ordinance of God?
A30138By which Professors seem widingly led, though against so many plain Commands and Examples, written as with a Sun- beam, that he that runs may read?
A30138Can not we love their Persons, Parts, Graces, but we must love their Sins?
A30138Can you build and leave out a stone in the Foundation?
A30138Consent and nothing else?
A30138Do you allow their Sprinkling?
A30138Do you allow their signing with the Cross?
A30138Do you more to the open Prophane, yea, to all Wizards and Witches in the Land?
A30138Doth this prove that Baptism is essential to Church- Communion?
A30138First, By whom?
A30138For he asketh me very devoutly, Whether any unbaptized Persons were concerned in these Epistles?
A30138For if he did not heed who himself had baptized, much less did he heed who were baptized by others?
A30138Further, I make a question upon three Scriptures, Whether all the Saints, even in the Primitive times, were baptized with Water?
A30138Further, Suppose I should grant this groundless Notion, Were not the Jews in Old Testament times to enter the Church by Circumcision?
A30138Hath not God chosen the foolish, the weak, the base, yea and even things that are not, to bring to nought things that are?
A30138Hath not man''s wisdom interposed to darken this part of God''s Counsel?
A30138Have I such an Argument in all my little Book?
A30138How comes contesting for Water- baptism to be so much against you?
A30138I say again, Should any so conclude hence, would not all Experience prove him void of Truth?
A30138If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil; but if well, why smitest thou me?
A30138If it be good, and godly, why may it not be accepted?
A30138If it be said Water- baptism is not there intended, let them shew me how many Baptisms there are besides Water- baptism?
A30138If it be, why is it not imbraced?
A30138If you bid him wait, do you not encourage him to live in sin, as much as I do?
A30138Is Christ divided?
A30138Is it an Inward one?
A30138Is it not a wicked thing to make bars to Communion, where God hath made none?
A30138Is it the Substance, is it the thing signified?
A30138Is not that the very entring- Ordinance?
A30138Is not this the Carpenter?
A30138Is there more Precepts or Precedents for the Supper, than Baptism?
A30138Is there no Precept for this Practice, that it must be thus despised?
A30138Is this the way of your retaliation?
A30138It is a Command?
A30138May he not shew to, or conceal from this, or another of his Servants, which of his Truths he pleaseth?
A30138May you indeed receive Persons into the Church unprepared for the Lord''s- Supper; yea, unprepared for that, with other solemn Appointments?
A30138Must God be called to an account by you, why he giveth more Light about the Supper, than Baptism?
A30138Must we go to Hell, and be damned for want of Faith in Water- baptism?
A30138My last Argument, you say is this; The World may wonder at your carriage to those Unbaptized Persons, in keeping them out of Communion?
A30138NOTHING else but Consent?
A30138Need I reade you a Lecture?
A30138Neither is Baptism any thing?
A30138Now I will add, But what if he that can give a shilling, giveth nothing?
A30138Or are you afraid lest the Truth should invade your quarters?
A30138Or do you count all that your selves have no hand in, done to your disparagement?
A30138Or must they neglect the weightier matters, because they want Mint, and Annise, and Commin?
A30138Or, are these such as may better be broken, than for want of light to forbear Baptism with Water?
A30138Or, are you become so high in your own phantasies, that none have, or are to have but private means of Grace?
A30138Or, must their Graces be increased by none but private means?
A30138Or, must we now be afraid to say Christ is better than Water- baptism?
A30138Or, ought none but them that are baptized to have the publick means of Grace?
A30138Or, whether Christ hath not given his whole Word to every one that believeth, whether they be baptized, or in, or out of Church- Fellowship?
A30138Or, whether every Saint in some sort, hath not the keyes of the Kingdom of Heaven, which are the Scriptures and their Power?
A30138Secondly, By whom, and to what, he that is weak in the Faith, is to be received?
A30138Secondly, To what?
A30138Should not the multitude of words be answered?
A30138Should thy lyes make men hold their peace?
A30138Suppose all, if all these Churches were baptized, what then?
A30138That this must be so urged for their excuse: Hath God been more sparing in making out his mind in the one, rather than the other?
A30138That very few will inquire after it, or submit to it?
A30138The Bread which we break, is it not the Communion of the Body of Christ?
A30138The Cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the Communion of the Blood of Christ?
A30138The United are all the Faithful, in one Body; into whom?
A30138The second part of the Enquiry is, to what he that is weak in the Faith is to be received?
A30138To instance no more, although I could instance many, are not they the words of our Lord?
A30138Was it not because they had that richer and better thing, the Lord Jesus Christ?
A30138Was it not the art of the false Apostles of old to say thus?
A30138Was that a New- Testament- Church, or no?
A30138Was you awake now?
A30138What Doctrine did it preach to you?
A30138What a kind of a YOU am I?
A30138What a many private things have we now brought out to publick view?
A30138What if I did?
A30138What is Christ''s Doctrine, Paul''s Doctrine, Scripture- Doctrine, but the Truth couched under the words that are spoken?
A30138What is here in chief asserted, but the Doctrine only which Water- baptism preacheth?
A30138What is it?
A30138What say you to John of Leyden?
A30138What say you to breaking of Bread, which the Devil, by abusing, made an Engine in the hand of Papists to burn, starve, hang- and- draw thousands?
A30138What say you to the Church all a- long the Revelation quite through the Reign of Antichrist?
A30138What say you to the Church in the Wilderness?
A30138What say you to, This is my Body?
A30138What was said of Eating, or the contrary, may as to this be said of Water- baptism; Neither if I be baptized, am I the better?
A30138What work did he make by the abuse of the Ordinance of Water- Baptism?
A30138What would you have done, had I in the least, either in matter or manner, though but seemingly miscarried among you?
A30138What?
A30138What?
A30138What?
A30138What?
A30138Whether it be that of Water, or no?
A30138Who said it?
A30138Why did John reject the Pharisees that would have been baptized?
A30138Why did you only cavil at words?
A30138Why then do you despise my rank, my state, and quality in the World?
A30138Why then were you baptized?
A30138Why, Sir, did you not Answer these things?
A30138Yea, and for all those that you thus received, are you not commanded to cast them out again, to cut them off from among this people?
A30138Yea, or for their neglect of it either?
A30138You add, Is it a Persons Light that giveth being to a Precept?
A30138You ask again, Suppose men plead want of Light in other Commands?
A30138You might have stopped at[ and nothing else] you need not in particular have rejected Faith: your first Error was bad enough, what?
A30138Your thirteenth Argument is, If Obedience must discover the truth of a man''s Faith to others, why must Baptism be shut out?
A30138Your twelfth Argument is, Why should Professors have more Light in breaking of Bread, than Baptism?
A30138and Paul examine them that were?
A30138and how would such an interpretation, foolishly charge the Lord, as if he took care ONLY of those within, but not LIKE care of those without?
A30138and is there not like reason for it?
A30138and say, Did I ever find Baptism a Pest or Plague to Churches?
A30138and should a man full of talk be justified?
A30138and then to Father these their doings upon God, when yet he hath not commanded it, neither in the New Testament nor the Old?
A30138and when thou mockest, shall no man make thee an answer?
A30138are not the poor Saints now in this City?
A30138are not they concerned in these instructions?
A30138are not they part of the Scriptures of Truth?
A30138are they all ESAU''S indeed?
A30138both those of Peter, and the first of John?
A30138but may it not be as strongly supposed, that the Presence and Blessing of the Lord Jesus, with his Ministers, is laid upon the same ground also?
A30138for legal grounds, though not expressed?
A30138in the fifth verse, in one Lord Jesus Christ; by what?
A30138neither if I be not, am I the worse?
A30138not so much as a respect to the matter or end?
A30138or if it came to them only?
A30138or is not the Church by these words at all directed how to carry it to those that were not yet in fellowship?
A30138or the Epistle of James?
A30138what did Baptism teach you?
A30138whether only unto mutual affection, as some affirm, as if he were in Church- Fellowship before, that were weak in the Faith?
A30138why could not you make the same work with the other Scriptures, as you did with these?
A30138would you have men to receive it with such Consciences?
A30121''T is an Honour for the Poor to stand up for the Great and Mighty: But what Honour is it for the Great to plead for t ● e base?
A3012113. the Lord, a Man of War, But how can this be done by him?
A3012116.7, 12. why should I look for ther Dealing at the Hand of God?
A3012150.7, 8, 9. Who is he that condemneth me?
A301216.1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. have the Verdict of the Lord God go out from the Throne against thee?
A30121A Word spoke in season, how good is it?
A30121Again, I ask, hast thou considered what Truth, as to Matter of Fact, there is in the things whereof thou standest accused?
A30121Again, hast thou found a Failure in all others that might have been entertained to plead thy Cause?
A30121Also hast thou considered the Cunning, the Malice, and Diligence of thine Adversary with the Greatness of the Loss thou art like to sustain?
A30121And if these be Acts that bespeak a Condescension, what will you count of Christ''s standing up as an Advocate to plead the Cause of his People?
A30121And is there not a great deal in it?
A30121And now what can this Accuser say?
A30121And the same I say of his Advocates Office, what''s an Advocate without the Exercise of his Office?
A30121And to put a Question upon thy Objection: What''s a Sacrifice, without a Priest; and what''s a Priest, without a Sacrifice?
A30121And what can Satan say against this Plea?
A30121And what need of an Advocates Office to be exercised, if Christ ● s Sacrifice and Priest, by God, was thought sufficient?
A30121And what shall this Man do?
A30121And what will not Love suffer?
A30121And who can now object against the Deliverance of the Child of God?
A30121And why doth not he concern himself with them, but because he is not interested in them?
A30121And why not quarrel with, and accuse the Justice of God as unrighteous for consenting to the Salvation of Sinners?
A30121And will not this, when they know it yield them Comfort?
A30121Art thou also willing that he should decide the Matter?
A30121Art thou begotten of God by his Word?
A30121As who should say, my Brethren are you tempted, are you accused, have you sinned, has Satan prevailed against you?
A30121Behold the Angels cover their Faces when they speak of his Glory: How then shall not Satan bend before him?
A30121Believe, that''s true; but how now must he conceive in his mind of Christ, for the encouraging of him so to do?
A30121Besides, if Men be made righteous, they are so, and if by a Righteousness which the Law commendeth, how can Fault be found with them by the Law?
A30121Besides, if the Promise, and God''s Grace without Christ''s Blood would have saved us, wherefore then did Christ die?
A30121Besides, to assert the contrary, what doth it but lessen Sin, and make the Advocateship of Jesus Christ superfluous?
A30121But I can not pray, says one, therefore how should I persevere?
A30121But I say what is this to them that are not admitted to a Privilege in the Advocates Office of Christ?
A30121But can any imagine that Christ will pray for them as Priest, for whom he will not plead as Advocate?
A30121But could he not deliver him, or did the Lord fors ● ke him?
A30121But doth not Christ as Advocate plead for his Elect, tho not called as yet?
A30121But fourthly, wouldest thou know whether Jesus Christ is thine Advocate; whether he has taken in hand to plead thy Cause?
A30121But how long, Prophet, wilt thou wait?
A30121But never let such a wicked though ● pass through thy Heart, saying, This Evil i ● of the Lord; why should I wait upon the Lord an ● longer?
A30121But shall Christ take our Cause in Hand, and shall we doubt of good Success?
A30121But shall the Will of Heaven stoop to the Will of Hell?
A30121But suppose that at his Return he should find his own Cattel in that Pound; would he now carry it toward them as he did unto the other?
A30121But was David in a strict Sense without Fault in all things else?
A30121But what is he?
A30121But what is it to wait upon him according to his Counsel?
A30121But what should we now do if 〈 ◊ 〉 had not an Advocate?
A30121But what will he do with him as he is an Advocate: Will he urge that he will plead against us?
A30121But what will not Love do?
A30121But when I have asked them, why so concerned for a thing of so little Esteem?
A30121But when I heard it, Lord, thought I, if this be true, what shall I do, and what will become of all this People; yea and of this Preacher too?
A30121But who is this that can do this?
A30121But who shall pay the Advocate his Fee?
A30121But who shall pay the Advocate his Fee?
A30121But, Secondly, Wouldest thou know whether Jesus Christ is thine Advocate?
A30121But, Thirdly, Hast thou Jesus Christ for thine Advocate?
A30121Can he contradict our Advocate?
A30121Can he excuse himself?
A30121Can he over- stand the Charge, the Accusation, the Sentence, and Condemnation?
A30121Can he prove that Christ has no Interest in the Saints Inheritance?
A30121Can he prove that we are at Age, or that our several Parts of the Heavenly House, is already delivered into our own Hands and is in our own Power?
A30121Can there be a miss of the Loss of such an one?
A30121Can''st thou in Faith, say, Father, Father, to God?
A30121Christ''s Will, is the Will of Heaven, the Will of God; shall not Christ then prevail?
A30121Christian Man, dost thou hear?
A30121Eighthly, But what is all this to you that are ● ot concerned in this Privilege?
A30121Esau himself was loth to do this, and shall Christians be disingenious?
A30121First, Since then the Children have Christ for their Advocate; art thou a Child?
A30121First, Wouldest thou know whether Christ is thine Advocate or no?
A30121For it will be objected by some; But can he fetch me off, tho I have done as David, as Solomon, as Peter, or the like?
A30121For why might not that God who gave the Law his Being and his Sanction, dispose as he pleases, of the Righteousness which it commendeth?
A30121Fourthly, Is it so, is Jesus Christ the Saviour also become our Advocate?
A30121Hast thou also considered the Justness of the Judge?
A30121Hast thou been with him, and prayed him to plead thy Cause, and cryed unto him to undertake for thee?
A30121Hast thou desired him to plead thy Cause?
A30121Hast thou entertained him?
A30121Hast thou in thee the Spirit of Adoption?
A30121Hast thou seen thy state to be desperate, if the Lord Jesus doth not undertake to plead thy Cause?
A30121Hath God cast away his People?
A30121He also expecteth this at our Hands, saying, who will rise up for me against the evil Doers?
A30121He is not ashamed of us, tho now in Heaven, why should we be ashamed of him before this Adulterous and sinful Generation?
A30121He is unwearied in his pleading for us, why should we faint and be dismayed while we plead for him?
A30121He pleads for us against fallen Angels, why should we not plead for him against sinful Vanities?
A30121He pleads for us before the Holy Angels, why should not we plead for him befor ● Princes?
A30121He pleads for us though our Cause i ● bad, why should not we plead for him since his Cause is good?
A30121He pleads for us to save our Souls, why should not we plead for him, to sanctifie his Name?
A30121Hence it follows that Christ will be ashamed of some, but why not ashamed of others?
A30121How didst thou plead for David?
A30121How low, how little, how vile and base in our own Eyes should we be?
A30121How shall we that are dead to sin live any longer therein?
A30121I answer, Hast thou well considered the Nature of the Crime wherewith thou standest charged at the Bar of God?
A30121I answer, art thou sensible that thou hast an Action commenced against thee in that high Court of Justice that is above?
A30121I ask, Hast thou entertain''d him so to be?
A30121I say art thou sensible of this?
A30121I say hast thou Revealed thy Cause unto him?
A30121I say hast thou entertained Jesus Christ for thy Lawyer to plead thy Cause?
A30121I say what Benefit have we thereby?
A30121I say who told thee so?
A30121I will, saith Christ; I will, saith Satan: But whose Will shall stand?
A30121I, but these are but say- soes, how shall this be proved?
A30121If the Saints were not capable of committing of Sin, what need would they have of an Advocate?
A30121If there be twenty places, where there are Assizes kept in this Land, yet if I have offended no Law, what need have I of an Advocate?
A30121If thou sayst, yea; then I ask who told thee that thou standest accused for Transgression before the Judgment- Seat of God?
A30121Is Christ Jesus the Lord mine Advocate with the Father?
A30121Is Jesus Christ an Advocate with the Father for us?
A30121Is he qualified for my Business?
A30121Is it Jesus Christ, says the knowing Soul, then he shall be mine Advocate?
A30121Is it likely that those should have the Lord Jesus for their Advocate to plead their Cause, who despise and reject his Person, his Word and Ways?
A30121Is not Christ an Advocate for his Elect, uncalled?
A30121It is God that justifieth, who is he that condemneth?
A30121My Brethren, is it not reasonable that we should stand up for him in this World?
A30121Now if Christ, as an Advocate, pleadeth a Propitiation with God, for whose Conviction doth he plead it?
A30121Now what doth Christ plead, and what is the Ground of his Plea?
A30121Now where lieth the Fault?
A30121Now, what''s the Result but that the Advocate goes down, as well as we, we to Hell, and he in Esteem?
A30121O but I am but one, and a very sorry one too: And what''s one, specially such an one as I am?
A30121O but will he not be weary?
A30121Or can God repute him so, and yet be Holy and Just?
A30121Or can the Merits of the Lord Jesus reach, according to the Law of Heaven, a Man in this Condition?
A30121Or that he will speak for them, to God for whom he will not plead against the Devil?
A30121Or the Will of Christ to the Will of Satan?
A30121Or the Will of Righteousness to the Will of Sin?
A30121Or those either who a ● e so far off from Sense of and Shame for Sin, that it is the only thing they hug and embrace?
A30121Or wouldst thou know if thou hast?
A30121Saith Satan, Why that will I. Ay saith he, but who can do it and prevail?
A30121Satan often saith of us, When we have sinned, as Abishai said of Shimei after he had cursed David, Shall not this Man die for this?
A30121Saying, most mighty Law, what Command of thine have I not fulfilled?
A30121Secondly, but what is it for Jesus to be an Advocate for these?
A30121Seest thou here how Saints of old were wo nt to do?
A30121Seventhly, Is it so?
A30121Shall he that speaks in Righteousness give place, and he who has nothing but Envy and Deceit be admitted to stand his Ground?
A30121Shall not the Judge of all the Earth do right?
A30121Shall we do evil that good may come?
A30121Shall we sin because we are not under the Law, but under Grace?
A30121Shall we sin, because we are forgiven?
A30121She also that is thine Enemy shall see it, and Shame shall cover her that said unto thee, where is thy God?
A30121Sixthly, Doth Jesus Christ stand up to plead for us and that of his meer Grace and Love?
A30121Some make their Sighs, their Tears, their Prayers, and their Reformations, their Advocates; Hast thou tryed these, and found them wanting?
A30121Suppose so many Cattel in such a Pound, and one goes by, whose they are not; doth he concern himself?
A30121The Children indeed have the Advantage of an Advocate, but what is this to them that have none to plead their Cause?
A30121The first is this, Do ye thus requite the Lord, O foolish People and unwise?
A30121Then I ask again hast thou committed thy Cause to him?
A30121Then: I ask again, hast thou Revealed thy Cause unto him?
A30121There is Grace, the Promise, the Blood of Christ, can not these save, except Christ be Advocate?
A30121Thirdly, Is Christ Jesus not only a Priest of, and a King over, but an Advocate for his People?
A30121This is but reasonable: For if Christ stands up to plead for us, why should not we stand up to plead for him?
A30121This wicked World doth sentence us for our good Deeds, but how then would they sentence us for our bad ones?
A30121Thou talkest of ● aving of him, but then whither wilt thou 〈 ◊ 〉?
A30121Thou wilt say unto me, How should I know that I have done so?
A30121What a Lover of Mankind art thou, and how gracious is our Lord Jesus, in his thu ● managing matters for us?
A30121What a Mind had he to try a Fall with Peter?
A30121What evil hath he done?
A30121What sayst thou poor Heart to this?
A30121What sayst thou, Soul?
A30121What shall he do now?
A30121What then should the Sinner( if he could come there) do at this Bar to plead?
A30121What things?
A30121What will not Love bear with?
A30121What''s Man,( sorry Man) that thou art mindful of him, or that thou shouldest so be?
A30121What''s his Name?
A30121What''s the Promise, without God''s Grace, and what''s that Grace without a Promise to bestow it on us?
A30121When I go to Prayer, instead of praying my Mouth is stopt: What would you have me do?
A30121When shall Jesus Christ our Lord be honoured by us as he ough ●?
A30121Wherefore I ask again, hast thou been with him?
A30121Wherefore, when Satan accuseth them before God?
A30121Who is mine Adversary?
A30121Who shall lay any thing to the Charge of God''s Elect?
A30121Who will stand up for me against the Workers of Iniquity?
A30121Who?
A30121Why he would say, I have yet with my Father in store for my Brethren: Wherefore then seekest thou to stop his hand?
A30121Why so?
A30121Will he plead against thee with his great Power?
A30121Yea is it not meet that to every ● ne they should confess what sorry ones ● hey are?
A30121Yea, is it not Reason that in all things we should study his Exaltation here since he in all things contrives our Honour, and Glory in Heaven?
A30121You will say, how should I know that?
A30121and O God, why hast thou cast us off forever?
A30121and hast thou tryed him half so long?
A30121and how quickly did he break the Neck of Judas?
A30121and if this gentle check will not do, then read the other, Shall we say, let us do evil that good may come?
A30121and so keep us out of Heaven?
A30121hath the holy Ghost, hath the World, or hath thy Conscience?
A30121how can it be that Satan should have a sufficient Ground for his Charge, tho he should have Matter of Fact, sufficient Matter of Fact, that is Sin?
A30121how many doth he accuse and soon get out from God, against them, a Licence to destroy them?
A30121or shall we not much matter what manner of Lives we live, because we are set free from the Law of Sin and Death?
A30121this dastardly Heart of ours, when shall it be more subdued, and trodden underfoot of Faith?
A30121what Demand of thine have I not fully answered?
A30121when shall Christ ride Lord, and King, and Advocate upon the Faith of his People as he should?
A30121where is that jot, or tittle of the Law that is able to object against my Doings, for want of Satisfaction?
A30160A certain Man had a fruitless Figg- Tree planted in his Vineyard; but by whom was it planted there?
A30160Above, you read, that the Scribes and Pharisees said to his Disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with Publicans and Sinners?
A30160An ● what did you reply, saith the Tempted?
A30160And has these desires put thy Soul to the flight?
A30160And he turned to the Woman, and said unto Simon, Seest thou this Woman?
A30160And so I may say, what think you of ten thousand more besides?
A30160And what if God will cross his Book and blot out the hand- writing that is against thee, and not let thee know it as yet?
A30160And what if thou waitest upon God all thy days?
A30160And what matter can be found in the Soul for Humility to work by so well, as by a sight that I have been and am an abominable Sinner?
A30160And what then?
A30160And what, did you d ● spair?
A30160And why to shew by these, the exceeding Riches of his Grace to the Ages to come thorow Christ Jesus?
A30160And would I, as was said afore, be throughly saved, to wit, from the filth, as from the guilt?
A30160And, I say, as I said before, in whom is it like so to shine, as in the Souls of great sinners?
A30160Answer, Art thou returning to God?
A30160Art not thou a Murderer, a Thief, a Harlot, a Witch, a sinner of the greatest size, and dost thou look for mercy now?
A30160Art thou crossed, disappointed and waylaid, and overthrown in all thy foolish ways and doings?
A30160Art thou followed with affliction, and dost thou hear God''s angry voice in thy afflictions?
A30160Art thou indeed weary of the service of th ● old Master the Devil, Sin and the World?
A30160Art thou jogged, and shaken, and molested at the hearing of the Word?
A30160Art thou visited in the Night seasons with dreams about thy state, and that thou art in danger of being lost?
A30160Ay, that''s well for you Paul; but what advantage have we thereby?
A30160Because Christ died for men, shall I therefore Spit in his Face?
A30160But I am a Reprobate?
A30160But I have not only a base Heart, but I have lived a debauched Life?
A30160But I say, what is this to him, that would fain be saved by Christ?
A30160But I say, why all these, thus named?
A30160But I was one of them that bare false Witness against him: Is there Grace for me?
A30160But I was one of them that in his extremity said, Give him Gall and Vinegar to drink, why may not I expect the same when anguish and guilt is upon me?
A30160But I was one of them that plotted to take away his Life: May I be saved by him?
A30160But Paul, what moved thee thus to do?
A30160But how shall I give thee up, Ephraim?
A30160But if this be the sin unpardonable, why is it called the sin against the Holy Ghost, and not rather the sin against the Son of God?
A30160But my Heart continually frets against the Lord?
A30160But my grey Head is found in the way of wickedness?
A30160But suppose a man should deny his God, or his Christ, or relinquish a good Profession, and be under the real guilt thereof?
A30160But was there not something of moment in this Clause of the Commission?
A30160But what Grace is this?
A30160But what did he speak to them?
A30160But what is it that has got thy Heart, and that keeps it from thy Saviour?
A30160But what was Paul, and the Ephesian- Sinners?
A30160But what was Paul?
A30160But what was the reason thereof?
A30160But when he shall see the Thief that was saved on the Cross, stand by, as clothed with beauteous Glory, what further can he be able to object?
A30160But where do you find that ever the Lord did thus rowl in his Bowels for, and after any Self- righteous man?
A30160But who are these?
A30160But who believes that this was Gods design in shewing Mercy of old?
A30160But why did he do all this?
A30160But why did the Devil stir up her to cry so?
A30160But why did these do thus?
A30160But why doth the Devil do thus?
A30160But why speaks he so particularly?
A30160But why speedily?
A30160But will it not, think you, strangely put to silence all such thonghts, and words, and reasonings of the Ungodly before the Barr of God?
A30160But, I say, Why so unconcerned?
A30160But, I say, how can these Scriptures be fulfilled, if he that would indeed be saved as before, has sinned the sin unpardonable?
A30160Can the Floods drown it?
A30160Can the Waters quench it?
A30160Canst thou defend thy self?
A30160Canst thou hear this, and not be concerned?
A30160Canst thou not so much as once soberly think of thy dyi ● g hour?
A30160Carest thou not for this?
A30160Consider, I say, has he made a hedge, and a Wall to stop thee?
A30160Could he not, think you, have stooped from the Cross to the Ground, and have laid hold on some honester man if he would?
A30160Cruel as the Grave?
A30160Do I love Christ, his Father, his Saints, his Word and Ways?
A30160Do I see salvation is no where but in Christ?
A30160Does thy hand and heart tremble?
A30160Dost fly to him that is a Saviour from the wrath to come, for life?
A30160Dost thou think that Christ will foul his fingers with thee?
A30160Doth he then command that his Mercy should be offered in the first place to the biggest Sinners?
A30160Doth it look like what hath any Coherence with Reason or Mercy, for a man to abuse his Friend?
A30160Eighthly, Would Jesus Christ have Mercy offered in the first place to the biggest Sinners?
A30160Eleventhly, Would Jesus Christ have Mercy offered in the first place to the biggest Sinners?
A30160FIrst, Would Jesus Christ have Mercy offered in the first place to the biggest sinners?
A30160Fifthly, Would Jesus Christ have Mercy offered in the first place to the biggest sinners?
A30160First, Dost thou see thy sins?
A30160For what will sting like this?
A30160For why are these things thus recorded, but to shew to Sinners what he can do, to the praise and glory of his grace?
A30160Fourthly, Would Jesus Christ have Mercy offered in the first place to the biggest sinners?
A30160Glorified God] How is that?
A30160Has he crossed th ● e in all thou pu ● test thy hand- unto?
A30160Hast no Judgmemt?
A30160Hast no Soul?
A30160Hast no affliction but what is bruitish?
A30160Hast thou Heart- shaken apprehensions when deep sleep''s upon thee, of Hell, Death, and Judgment to come?
A30160Hast thou any inticing touches of the word of God upon thy mind?
A30160Hast thou no Conscience?
A30160Hast thou not Reason?
A30160Hast thou through desires betaken thy self to thy heels?
A30160Hast thou, thinkest thou, found any thing so good as Jesus Christ?
A30160Hath it not a most vehement flame?
A30160Having so often sold thy self to me to work wickedness, wilt thou forsake me now?
A30160How canst thou find in thy heart to set thy self against Grace, against such Grace as offereth Mercy to thee?
A30160How shall I deliver thee Israel?
A30160How shall I give thee up, Ephraim?
A30160How shall I make thee as Admah?
A30160How shall I set thee 〈 ◊ 〉 Zeboim?
A30160I am under the force of it, and this is my continual cry, What shall I render to the Lord for all the Benefits which he has bestow ● d upon me?
A30160I mean the reason from God?
A30160I say therefore to thee that art thus, And w ● y Despair?
A30160I say, what excuse can they make for themselves, when they shall be asked why they did not in the day of S ● lvation come to Christ to be saved?
A30160If we do take occasion to do so, that we may drop, and be yet distilling some good Doctrine upon their Souls?
A30160Is it below thee?
A30160Is it fit to say unto God, Thou art hard- hearted?
A30160Is it not pity, had it otherwise been the Will of God that ever thou wast made a M ● n, for that thou settest so little by thy Soul?
A30160Is it not strong as Death?
A30160Is not He ● ven worth thy affection?
A30160Is not Love of the greatest force to oblige?
A30160Is not here incouragement for those that think, for wicked Hearts and Lives, they have not their fellows in the World?
A30160Is not this an incouragement to the biggest sinners to make their Application to Christ for Mercy?
A30160Is there any among thy Sins, thy Companions, and foolish Delights, that like Christ, can help thee in the day of thy distress?
A30160Is there not every where in God''s Books sl ● t contradiction to this, in multitudes of Promises, of Invitations, of Examples, and the like?
A30160Is there room for me?
A30160Is thy Conscience awakened and convinced then, that thou art at present in a perishing state, and that thou hast need to cry to God for M ● rcy?
A30160It has oft- times come into my mind, to ask, by what means it is, That the Gospel Profession should be so Taunted with Loose and Carnal Gospellers?
A30160Ninthly, Would Jesus Christ have Mercy offered in the first place to the biggest Sinners?
A30160No affection for the God that made thee?
A30160Now I say, If there be room for the first sort, for those of the biggest size; certainly there is room for the lesser size?
A30160Now since Christ Jesus is willing to save the Vilest, why should they not by Name be somewhat acquainted with it, and bid come to him under that Name?
A30160Now since this is so, what can the Condemned at the Judgement say for themselves, why Sentence of Death should not be passed upon them?
A30160Now what does Mary?
A30160Now why should we lay hands cross on this Text, that is, choose good Victuals, and love the sweet Wine better than the Salvation of the poor Publican?
A30160Or doest thou think thou shalt escape the Judgment?
A30160Or dost think thou mayest lose thy S ● ul, and save thy self?
A30160Or how shall a man be able to give to others a satisfactory account of his unseigned subjection to the Gospel, that yet abides in his impenitency?
A30160Sec ● ndly, With respect to thy desires, what are they?
A30160Secondly, Art thou weary of them?
A30160Secondly, Would Jesus Christ have Mercy offered in the first place to the biggest Sinners, to the Jerusalem sinners?
A30160Sermon being done, up she gets, and away she goes, and withal, enquired where this Jesus the Preacher dined that day?
A30160Seventhly, Would Jesus Christ have Mercy offered in the first place to the biggest Sinners?
A30160Shall Christ weep to see thy Soul going on to destruction, and wilt thou sport thy self in That way?
A30160Shall God enter this Complaint against thee?
A30160Shall he therefore conclude he is gone for ever?
A30160Shall not this lay Obli ● ation upon me?
A30160Shall they fall, saith he, and not arise?
A30160Shall they turn away, and not return?
A30160Should a Man ask me how he should know that he loveth the Children of God?
A30160Some, as I said, that Revolt, are shot dead upon the place, and for them, who can help them?
A30160Tell me therefore which of them will love him most?
A30160Tengthly, Would Jesus Christ have Mercy offered in the first place to the biggest Sinners?
A30160Thirdly, Wouldst thou with all thy heart be saved by Jesus Christ?
A30160Thou horrible Wretch, dost not know, that thou hast sinned thy self beyond the reach of Grace, and dost think to find Mercy now?
A30160Thou scrupulous fool, where canst thou find that God was ever false to his Promise, or that he ever deceived the Soul that ventured it self upon him?
A30160Was not this a strange act, and a display of unthought- of grace?
A30160Were there none but Thieves there, or were the rest of that company out of his reach?
A30160What Man or Angel could have thought that the Jerusalem- sinners had been yet on this side of an impossibity of enjoying Life and Mercy?
A30160What Spirit possesseth thee, and holds thee back from a sincere closure with ● hy Saviour?
A30160What gro ● nd now is here for Despair?
A30160What ground then to despair?
A30160What if God will be silent to thee, is that ground of despair?
A30160What kind of Preacher is he, said she?
A30160What more can be objected?
A30160What saist thou?
A30160What think you of the first Man, by whose sins there are millions now in Hell?
A30160What will become of me, think you?
A30160What, my true Servant( quoth he) my old Servant, wilt thou forsake me now?
A30160What, none for his loving Son that has shewed his love, and dyed for thee?
A30160When God made me sigh, they would harken, and enquiringly say, What''s the matter with John?
A30160When the Jayler cried out, Sirs, What must I do to be saved?
A30160When thou art called to an account for thy neglects of so great Salvation, what canst thou answer?
A30160Where is he that is thus under pangs of love for the Grace bestowed upon him by Jesus Christ?
A30160Wherefore is it said, Begin at Jerusalem, if the Jerusalem sinner is not to have the benefit of it?
A30160Wherefore, at present, lay the thoughts of thy Election by, and ask thy self these questions; Do I see my lost condition?
A30160Whether wilt thou go?
A30160Who among the Sons of the Mighty can be likened unto the Lord?
A30160Who in the Heavens can be compared unto the Lord?
A30160Why betook not I my self to the holy Word of God?
A30160Why did I judge of his ability to save me by the voice of my shallow reason, and the voice of a guilty Conscience?
A30160Why did I not humbly cast my Soul at his bless ● d foot stool for Mercy?
A30160Why dost thou put him off?
A30160Why not familiar with sinners provided we hate their spots and blemishes, and seek that they may be healed of them?
A30160Why not fellowly with our Carnal Neighbours?
A30160Why not go to the poor Man''s House, and give him a Penny, and a Scripture to think upon?
A30160Why should Satan molest those whose ways he knows will bring them to him?
A30160Why should not Devils and Damned Souls d ● spair?
A30160Why so?
A30160Why, there is Faith, and Wild Fai ● h; and Wild Faith is this Presumption?
A30160Wny sittest thou still?
A30160Would I share in this salvation by Faith of him?
A30160Wouldst thou be saved from guilt, and filth too?
A30160Wouldst thou be saved with a thorow salvation?
A30160Wouldst thou be saved?
A30160Wouldst thou be the servant of thy Saviour?
A30160Yea, why should not Man despair of getting to Heaven by his own abilities?
A30160Yëa, why did he say, Begin at Jerusalem?
A30160and hotter than the Coals of Juniper?
A30160arise; why standest thou still?
A30160but who when called, was there in the World, in whom Grace shone so bright as in him?
A30160for me?
A30160if at any time any of them are mentioned, how seemingly coldly doth the Record of Scripture present them to us?
A30160or how?
A30160or of, whether thy sinful life will drive thee then?
A30160what, none at all?
A30160which is strongest, think''st thou, God or thee?
A30160why did not I give glory to the Redeeming Blood of Jesus?
A30160why dost thou stop thine ear?
A30160why have we not a Catalogue of some Holy men that were so in their own eyes, and in the judgment of the World?
A30214''T is an Honour for the Poor to stand up for the Great and Mighty: But what Honour is it for the Great to plead for the base?
A3021416.7, 12. why should I look for other Dealing at the Hand of God?
A3021450.7, 8, 9. Who is he that condemneth me?
A302146.1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. have the Verdict of the Lord God go out from the Throne against thee?
A30214A Word spoke in season, how good is it?
A30214Again, I ask, hast thou considered what Truth, as to Matter of Fact, there is in the things whereof thou standest accused?
A30214Again, hast thou found a Failure in all others that might have been entertained to plead thy Cause?
A30214Also hast thou considered the Cunning, the Malice, and Diligence of thine Adversary with the Greatness of the Loss thou art like to sustain?
A30214And if these be Acts that bespeak a Condescension, what will you count of Christ''s standing up as an Advocate to plead the Cause of his People?
A30214And is there not a great deal in it?
A30214And now what can this Accuser say?
A30214And the same I say of his Advocates Office, what''s an Advocate without the Exercise of his Office?
A30214And to put a Question upon thy Objection: What''s a Sacrifice, without a Priest; and what''s a Priest, without a Sacrifice?
A30214And what can Satan say against this Plea?
A30214And what need of an Advocates Office to be exercised, if Christ as Sacrifice and Priest, by God, was thought sufficient?
A30214And what shall this Man do?
A30214And what then?
A30214And what will not Love suffer?
A30214And who can now object against the Deliverance of the Child of God?
A30214And why doth not he concern himself with them, but because he is not interested in them?
A30214And why not quarrel with, and accuse the Justice of God as unrighteous for consenting to the Salvation of Sinners?
A30214And will not this, when they know it yield them Comfort?
A30214Art thou also willing that he should decide the Matter?
A30214Art thou begotten of God by his Word?
A30214As who should say, my Brethren are you tempted, are you accused, have you sinned, has Satan prevailed against you?
A30214Behold the Angels cover their Faces when they speak of his Glory: How then shall not Satan bend before him?
A30214Believe, that''s true; but how now must he conceive in his mind of Christ, for the encouraging of him so to do?
A30214Besides, If Men be made righteous, they are so, and if by a Righteousness which the Law commendeth, how can Fault be found with them by the Law?
A30214Besides, if the Promise, and God''s Grace without Christ''s Blood would have saved us, wherefore then did Christ die?
A30214Besides, to assert 〈 ◊ 〉 contrary, what doth it but lessen Sin, and make the Advocateship of Jesus Christ superfluous?
A30214But I can not pray, says one, therefore how should I persevere?
A30214But I say what is this to them that are not admitted to a Privilege in the Advocates Office of Christ?
A30214But can any imagine that Christ will pray for them as Priest, for whom he will not plead as Advocate?
A30214But could he not deliver him, or did the Lord fors ● ke him?
A30214But doth not Christ as Advocate plead for his Elect, tho not called as yet?
A30214But fourthly, wouldest thou know whether Jesus Christ is thine Advocate; whether he has taken in hand to plead thy Cause?
A30214But how can this be done by him?
A30214But how long, Prophet, wilt thou wait?
A30214But never let such a wicked thought pass through thy Heart, saying, This Evil is of the Lord; why should I wait upon the Lord any longer?
A30214But shall Christ take our Cause in Hand, and shall we doubt of good Success?
A30214But shall the Will of Heaven stoop to the Will of Hell?
A30214But suppose that at his Return he should find his own Cattel in that Pound; would he now carry it toward them as he did unto the other?
A30214But was David in a strict Sense without Fault in all things else?
A30214But what is he?
A30214But what is it to wait upon him according to his Counsel?
A30214But what should we now do if we had not an Advocate?
A30214But what will he do with him as he is an Advocate: Will he urge that he will plead against us?
A30214But what will not Love do?
A30214But when I have asked them, why so concerned for a thing of so little Esteem?
A30214But when I heard it, Lord, thought I, if this be true, what shall I do, and what will become of all this People; yea and of this Preacher too?
A30214But who is this ● hat can do this?
A30214But who shall pay the Advocate his 〈 ◊ 〉?
A30214But, Secondly, Wouldest thou know whether Jesus Christ is thine Advocate?
A30214But, Thirdly, Hast thou Jesus Christ for thine Advocate?
A30214Can he contradict our Advocate?
A30214Can he excuse himself?
A30214Can he over- stand the Charge, the Accusation, the Sentence, and Condemnation?
A30214Can he prove that Christ has no Interest in the Saints Inheritance?
A30214Can he prove that we are at Age, or that our several Parts of the Heavenly House, is already delivered into our own Hands and is in our own Power?
A30214Can there be a miss of the Loss of such an one?
A30214Can''st thou in Faith, say, Father, Father, to God?
A30214Christ''s Will, is the Will of Heaven, the Will of God; shall not Christ then prevail?
A30214Christian Man, dost thou hear?
A30214Eighthly, But what is all this to you that are ● ot concerned in this Privilege?
A30214Esau himself was loth to do this, and shall Christians be disingenious?
A30214First, Since then the Children have Christ for their Advocate; art thou a Child?
A30214First, Wouldest thou know whether Christ is thine Advocate or no?
A30214For it will be objected by some; But can he fetch me off, tho I have done as David, as Solomon, as Peter, or the like?
A30214For why might not that God who gave the Law his Being and his Sanction, dispose as he pleases, of the Righteousness which it commendeth?
A30214Fourthly, Is it so, is Jesus Christ the Saviour also become our Advocate?
A30214Hast thou also considered the Justness of the Judge?
A30214Hast thou been with him, and prayed him to plead thy Cause, and cryed unto him to undertake for thee?
A30214Hast thou desired him to plead thy Cause?
A30214Hast thou entertained him?
A30214Hast thou in thee the Spirit of Adoption?
A30214Hast thou seen thy state to be desperate, if the Lord Jesus doth not undertake to plead thy Cause?
A30214Hath God cast away his People?
A30214He also expecteth this at our Hands, saying, who will rise up for me against the evil Doers?
A30214He is not ashamed of us, tho now in Heaven, why should we be ashamed of him before this Adulterous and sinful Generation?
A30214He is unwearied in his pleading for us, why should we faint and be dismayed while we plead for him?
A30214He pleads for us against fallen Angels, why should we not plead for him against sinful Vanities?
A30214He pleads for us before the Holy Angels, why should not we plead for him before Princes?
A30214He pleads for us though our Cause is bad, why should not we plead for him since his Cause is good?
A30214He pleads for us to save our Souls, why should not we plead for him, to sanctifie his Name?
A30214He standeth up to plead for us in the most Holy Place, tho we are vile: And why should we not stand up for him in this vile World, since he is holy?
A30214Hence it follows that Christ will be ashamed of some, but why not ashamed of othe ● s?
A30214How didst thou plead for David?
A30214How low, how little, how vile and base in our own Eyes should we be?
A30214How shall I know that?
A30214How shall we that are dead to sin live any longer therein?
A30214I answer, Hast thou well considered the Nature of the Crime wherewith thou standest charged at the Bar of God?
A30214I answer, art thou sensible that thou hast an Action commenced against thee in that high Court of Justice that is above?
A30214I ask, Hast thou entertain''d him so to be?
A30214I say art thou sensible of this?
A30214I say hast thou Revealed thy Cause unto him?
A30214I say hast thou entertained Jesus Christ for thy Lawyer to plead thy Cause?
A30214I say what Benefit have we thereby?
A30214I say who told thee so?
A30214I will, saith Christ; I will, saith Satan: But whose Will shall stand?
A30214I, but these are but sayso ● s, how shall this be proved?
A30214If the Saints were not capable of committing of Sin, what need would they have of an Advocate?
A30214If there be twenty places, where there are Assizes kept in this Land, yet if I have offended no Law, what need have I of an Advocate?
A30214If thou sayst, yea; then I ask who told thee that thou standest accused for Transgression before the Judgment- Seat of God?
A30214Is Christ Jesus the Lord mine Advocate with the Father?
A30214Is Jesus Christ an Advocate with the Father for us?
A30214Is he qualified for my Business?
A30214Is it Jesus Christ, says the knowing Soul, then he shall be mine Advocate?
A30214Is it likely that those should have the Lord Jesus for their Advocate to plead their Cause, who despise and reject his Person, his Word and Ways?
A30214Is not Christ an Advocate for his Elect, uncalled?
A30214It is God that justifieth, who is he that condemneth?
A30214Mine Eyes have seen vileness in the best of my doings, what then, think you, must God needs see in them?
A30214My Brethren, is it not reasonable that we should stand up for him in this World?
A30214Now if Christ, as an Advocate, pleadeth a Propitiation with God, for whose Conviction doth he plead it?
A30214Now what doth Christ plead, and what is the Ground of his Plea?
A30214Now where lieth the Fault?
A30214Now, what''s the Result but that the Advocate goes down, as well as we, we to Hell, and he in Esteem?
A30214O but I am but one, and a very sorry one too: And what''s one, specially such an one as I am?
A30214O but will he not be weary?
A30214Or can God repute him so, and yet be Holy and Just?
A30214Or can the Merits of the Lord Jesus reach, according to the Law of Heaven, a Man in this Condition?
A30214Or that he will speak for them, to God for whom he will not plead against the Devil?
A30214Or the Will of Christ to the Will of Satan?
A30214Or the Will of Righteousness to the Will of Sin?
A30214Or those either who are so far off from Sense of and Shame f ● r Sin, that it is the only thing they hug and embrace?
A30214Or wou ● dst thou know if thou h ● ● ● ▪ Then I ask again hast thou committed thy Cause to him?
A30214Saith Satan, Why that will I. Ay saith he, but who can do it and prevail?
A30214Satan often saith of us, When we have sinned, as Abishai said of Shimei after he had cursed David, Shall not this Man die for this?
A30214Saying, most mighty Law, what Command of thine have I not fulfilled?
A30214Secondly, but what is it for Jesus to be an Advocate for these?
A30214Seest thou here how Saints of old were wo nt to do?
A30214Seventhly, Is it so?
A30214Shall he that speaks in Righteousness give place, and he who has nothing but Envy and Deceit be admitted to stand his Ground?
A30214Shall not the Judge of all the Earth do right?
A30214Shall we do evil 〈 ◊ 〉 good may come?
A30214Shall we sin 〈 ◊ 〉 cause we are not under the Law, but under Grace?
A30214Shall we sin, because we are forgiven?
A30214She also that is thine Enemy shall see it, and Shame shall cover her that said unto thee, where is thy God?
A30214Sixthly, Doth Jesus Christ stand up to plead for us and that of his meer Grace and Love?
A30214Some make their Sighs, their Tears, their Prayers, and their Reformations, their Advocates; Hast thou tryed these, and found them wanting?
A30214Suppose so many Cattel in such a Pound, and one goes by, whose they are not; doth he concern himself?
A30214The Children indeed have the Advantage of an Advocate, but what is this to them that have none to plead their Cause?
A30214The first is this, Do ye thus require the Lord, O foolish People and unwise?
A30214Then: I ask again, hast thou Revealed thy Cause unto him?
A30214There is Grace, the Promise, the Blood of Christ, can not these save, except Christ be Advocate?
A30214Thirdly, Is Christ Jesus not only a Priest of, and a King over, but an Advocate for his People?
A30214This is but reasonable: For if Christ stands up to plead for us, why should not we stand up to plead for him?
A30214This wicked World doth sentence us for our good Deeds, but how then would they sentence us for our bad ones?
A30214Thou talkest of leaving of him, but then whither wilt thou go?
A30214Thou wilt say unto me, How should I know that I have done so?
A30214What a Lover of Mankind art thou, and how gracious is our Lord Jesus, in his thus managing matters for us?
A30214What a Mind had he to try a Fall with Peter?
A30214What evil hath he done?
A30214What is it thus to wait?
A30214What need all these Offices, or nice Distinctions?
A30214What sayst thou poor Heart to this?
A30214What sayst thou, Soul?
A30214What shall he do now?
A30214What then should the Sinner( if he could come there) do at this Bar to plead?
A30214What things?
A30214What will not Love bear with?
A30214What''s Man,( sorry Man) that thou art mindful of him, or that thou shouldest so be?
A30214What''s his Name?
A30214What''s the Promise, without God''s Grace, and what''s that Grace without a Promise to bestow it on us?
A30214When I go to Prayer, instead of praying my Mouth is stopt: What would you have me do?
A30214When shall Jesus Christ our Lord be honoured by us as he ough ●?
A30214Wherefore ● ask again, hast thou been with him?
A30214Wherefore, when Satan accuseth them before God?
A30214Who is mine Adversary?
A30214Who shall lay any thing to the Charge of God''s Elect?
A30214Who will stand up for me against the Workers of Iniquity?
A30214Who?
A30214Why he would say, I have yet with my Father in store for my Brethren: Wherefore then seekest thou to stop his hand?
A30214Why so?
A30214Will he plead against thee with his great Power?
A30214Yea is it not meet that to every one they should confess what sorry ones they are?
A30214Yea, is it not Reason that in all things we should study his Exaltation here since he in all things contrives our Honour, and Glory in Heaven?
A30214You will say, how should I know that?
A30214and O God, why hast thou cast us off forever?
A30214and hast thou tryed him half so long?
A30214and how quickly did he break the Neck of Judas?

A30211yea and to do it more and more?
A30211yea what like to be taught in the way that thou shalt chuse?
A30211yea, and some are not afraid to say they are not changed nor desire so to be: can these fear God?
A30211yea, what shall we say of such, that are the inventors and promoters of wickedness as of oaths beastly talke, or the like?
A30211you may say, what Judgments?
A30150''T is said elsewhere, m For what is a Man advantaged if he shall gain the whole World and lose H ● MSELF?
A30150A sick Body is a Burthen to the Soul, and a wounded Spirit is a Burthen to the Body: A wounded Spirit who ● an bear?
A30150Again, Fifthly, Is it so?
A30150All therefore that he that has lost himself can do, is to sit down by the Loss; Do I say he can do this?
A30150And are you stronger than he?
A30150And indeed, The Soul that doth thus by practice m( though with his mouth( as who doth not?)
A30150And is there not all the reason in the World for this?
A30150And must you needs be upon the extreams, must you mind this World to the damning of your Souls, or will you not mind your calling at all?
A30150And now what would a Man give in exchange for his Soul?
A30150And since the incredulous World will not belie?
A30150And they all with( k) one consent began to make excuse; Excuse, for what?
A30150And to make this a little plainer unto you, I suppose it will be readily granted that Men do lose their Souls, but now how doth God lose it?
A30150And what is ● at Soul that he hath put into it?
A30150And what saith the words before the Text but the same; For what shall it profit a Man, if he shall gain the whole World, and lose his own Soul?
A30150And what then?
A30150And where, when h ● speaketh of them, doth he express a communion tha ● they have with him, by the similitude of 〈 ◊ 〉 Love?
A30150Ask the awakened Man, or the Man that is under the Convictions of the Law, If he doth not feel?
A30150Besides, who knows of all the ways by which the Almighty will inflict his just revenges upon the Souls of damned Sinners?
A30150But I say, What is Man, without this Soul, or s wherein lieth his preeminence over a Beast?
A30150But I say, Would they not change places?
A30150But doth not their thus living, abiding, and retaining a Being( or what you will call it) demonstrate the greatness and might of the Soul?
A30150But how came this to be so?
A30150But how?
A30150But may one not be equally ingaged for both?
A30150But that saith the sinful Soul to this?
A30150But the most of Men do that which you forbid, and why may not we?
A30150But thirdly, Is it so?
A30150But what a famous thing there ● fore is the Soul?
A30150But what has God prepared this Vessel for, and what has he put into it?
A30150But what is this to the casting away the Soul?
A30150But what was the cause of their making this excuse?
A30150But where hadst thou that heart that gives entertainment to these thoughts, these heavenly thoughts?
A30150But who doth he personate, if he says, T ● is an House for the Soul: for the Body is part of h ● that says, Our House?
A30150But who put the thoughts of the Excellencies of the things that are Eternal?
A30150But who told thee that thy Soul was such an excellent thing, as by thy practice thou declarest thou believest it to be?
A30150But will riches profit in the da ● of Wrath; yea are they not hurtful in the day 〈 ◊ 〉 Grace?
A30150But would he have done this for inconsiderable things?
A30150But would you have us sit still and do nothing?
A30150But would you not have us mind our worldly concerns?
A30150But, Fourthly, Is it so?
A30150But, brave Soul, pray tell me what the things are that discourage thee, and that weaken thy strength in the way?
A30150But, but few comparatively will be concerned with this use, for where is he that doth this?
A30150Can the Body bear, y hath it ears?
A30150Can the Body see?
A30150Cast them out of my presence: Well but whither must they go?
A30150Dead How?
A30150Dost thou understand me, sinful Soul?
A30150For how can it otherw ● ● ● ● be, since there is holiness and justice in God?
A30150For so the Question implies, what shall a Man give in exchange for his Soul?
A30150For wha ● shall a Man give in exchange for his Soul?
A30150For what shall a Man give in exchange for his Soul?
A30150For what shall it profit a Man, if he shall get the whole World, and lose his own Soul?
A30150Guilt and Despair, what are they, who understands them unto perfection?
A30150Hath it eyes?
A30150He can not deliver his Soul, nor say, Is there not a lye in my Right- hand?
A30150Hear, did I say?
A30150House and Land, Trades and Honors, Places and Preferments, What are they to Salvation?
A30150I say, dost thou this, or dost thou hunt thine own Soul to destroy it?
A30150I will laugh at him ▪ I will mock at him ▪ But when Lord wilt thou laugh at, and mock at the impenitent?
A30150If all that desire to go to Heaven should come thither, verily they would make a Hell of Heaven; for I say, what would they do there?
A30150If it had been replyed, Stay till Harvest: He returns again, But I have no room where to bestow my Goods?
A30150In a Word who knows the Power of God''s Wrath, the Weigh ● of Sin, the Torments of Hell, and the Length 〈 ◊ 〉 Eternity?
A30150Is his Body dead?
A30150Is it so?
A30150Is it so?
A30150Is the Soul such an excellent thing, and is the Loss thereof so unspeakably great?
A30150Make not therefore these foolish Objections; but what saith the Word, how readest thou?
A30150Now consider what is best to be done, will you take up the Cross come after me and so preserve your Souls from perishing?
A30150Now had one said, Mind the good of thy Soul, Man; the Answer would have been ready, But where shall I bestow my Goods?
A30150Now the Soul is purchased by a Price that the Son, the wisdom of God thought fit to pay for the redemption thereof, what a thing then is the Soul?

A30150The first Observation or truth drawn from the words is cleared by the Text, what shall a Man give in exchange for his Soul?
A30150Their Poy ● ● n what is that?
A30150There is in the Text, an intimation of a sense of Torment; Or what shall a Man give in exchange for 〈 ◊ 〉 Soul?
A30150This I say, is a Character above all Angels, for as the Apostle said, To which of the An ● el ● said he, at any time, thou art my Son?
A30150This is plain, not only to sense, but by the natural scope of the words, What shall a Man give in exchange for his Soul?

A30150What a thing is this, that thy Soul and its welfare should be more in thy esteem than all those glories wherewith the Eyes of the World are dazled?

A30164Again, Was the man a good man?
A30164Also, what if she had laid wait round about him, to espie if he was not otherwise behind her back than he was before her face?
A30164And Sir, you, as all our Neighbours know, are a very observing man, pray therefore what do you think of them?
A30164And did he do it before he had need to do it?
A30164And did he do thus indeed?
A30164And did the old man give him money to set up with?
A30164And dost thou think, wast thou there now, that thou art able to wrestle with the judgment of God?
A30164And how did he carry it there?
A30164And how did his good wife take it, when she saw that he had no Amendment, but that he returned with the Dog to his vomit, to his old courses again?
A30164And how long I pray did they live thus together?
A30164And then he answers himself; Is not destruction to the wicked, and a strange punishment to the workers of iniquity?
A30164And then what doth he get thereby, but loss and dammage?
A30164And then, what profit hath he that laboureth for the wind?
A30164And was it so indeed, thought Mr. Badman; was my troubles, only the effects of my distemper, and because ill vapours got up into my brain?
A30164And what Concord hath Christ with Belial?

A30164And what was the other thing?
A30164And who can contradict him?
A30164And, in reason, how could it be otherwise?

A30164But did not Mr. Badman marry again quickly?
A30164But did not the neighbours take notice of this alteration that Mr. Badman had made?

A30164But pray Sir, what other sign have you, by which you can prove that Mr. Badman died in his sins, and so in a state of damnation?
A30164But pray if you can, shew me now by the Word, what sentence of God doth pass upon such men?
A30164But pray why do you ask me this question?
A30164But shew me something out of the Word against it, will you?
A30164But was he not afraid of the Judgments of God, that did fly about at that time?
A30164But what Judgments do you mean?
A30164But what do you mean by Mr. Badmans Breaking?
A30164But what of that?
A30164But what saith the Scripture?
A30164But what saith the Word of God?
A30164But what should be mean by that?
A30164But what was that other Villain addicted to, I mean, young Badmans third companion?
A30164But what was this Curse?
A30164But when did you give him such a rebuke?
A30164But why did not young Badman run away from this Master, as he ran away from the other?
A30164But why doe you put in those cautionary words?
A30164But why, good Sir, do you sigh so deeply?
A30164Did I call him before an Atheist?
A30164Did good men then goe to see him in his last sickness?
A30164Did he break his legg then?
A30164Did he often carry it thus to her?
A30164Did she talk thus openly?
A30164Did you then so well know his Life?
A30164For how can a man repent of that of which he hath neither sight nor sence?
A30164For of what should a man repent?
A30164For what good is there to the owners thereof, save the beholding of them with their eyes?
A30164For what portion is there( for that sin) from above, and what Inheritance of the Almighty from on high?
A30164GOOD morrow my good Neighbour, Mr. Attentive; whither are you walking so early this morning?
A30164Had he then such a good Trade, for all he was such a bad man?
A30164Hast thou found me, said Ahab, O mine enemy?
A30164Have you lost any of your Cattel, or what is the matter?
A30164He ran away, you say, but whither did he run?
A30164How came I into this way of dealing in which I have now miscarried?
A30164How do you mean?
A30164How long must this be my state?
A30164I believe so; but pray tell me, did any of her other children hearken to her words, so as to be bettered in their souls thereby?
A30164I have prayed often for my husband, that he might be converted, but there has been no answer of God in that matter; Are my prayers lost?
A30164I made a covenant with mine eyes, said Job, why should I think upon a Maid?
A30164I pray let me hear your Judgmen of Extortion, what it is, and when committed?
A30164I told her, I would have her go to her Master, and make him satisfaction: She said, she was afraid; I asked her why?
A30164I went into the Sanctuary of God: What place was that?
A30164If God would blow upon a man, who can help it?
A30164Is it because they would honour God?
A30164John, what have you done?
A30164Lastly, But what can be the end of those that are proud, in the decking of themselves after their antick manner?
A30164Let thy conscience speak, I say, is it not prepared for thee, thou being an ungodly man?
A30164Meaning, Who would be at the charge to have a Wife, that can have a Whore when he listeth?
A30164Now then shew me how they did prove he had none?
A30164Now you are speaking of the cause of pride, pray shew me yet further why pride is now so much in request?
A30164O what shall be given unto thee, thou deceitful tongue?
A30164Pray how did he break it?
A30164Pray how did she dye?
A30164Pray how was he in his death?
A30164Pray how was he when he drew near his end?
A30164Pray of what disease did Mr. Badman die, for now I percieve we are come up to his death?
A30164Pray tell me concerning the first, how he made away himself?
A30164Pray what were they?
A30164Professors, such perhaps there may be, and who, upon earth can help it?
A30164Reason will consider thus with himself; For what am I thus tormented?
A30164Reason will consider thus with himself; What have I lost more than present ease and quiet by my sins that I have committed?
A30164Rook is pronounced against him?
A30164Sayes Paul, They did not like to retain God in their knowledge; and what follows?
A30164Saying, How do you know them to be the Word of God?
A30164Sir, you seem to be greatly concerned at this, but what if I shall say more?
A30164Suppose that I be cheated my self with a brass half- Crown, must I therefore cheat another therewith?
A30164Tell me, when did you see an old drunkard converted?
A30164That was Extortion, was it not?
A30164That''s true, but what evil is that that he will not doe, that is left of God, as I believe Mr. Badman was?
A30164The Creditors asked what he would give?
A30164The way that he took, led him directly into this condition; for who can expect other things of one that follows such courses?
A30164The wicked is reserved to the day of destruction, they shall be brought forth to the day of wrath; who shall declare his way to his face?
A30164Therefore let him still humble himself before his God, because his hand is upon him, and say, What sin is this, for which this hand of God is upon me?
A30164Therefore, Wherefore?
A30164They also speak loftily: They set their mouth against the Heavens,& c. And they say, How doth God know, and is there knowledge in the most High?
A30164They did well to try now at last if they could save his soul from Hell: But pray how can you tell that he did not care for the company of such?
A30164They gather it indeed, and think to keep it too, but what says Solomon?
A30164They must not sell[ always] as dear, nor buy[ always] as cheap as they can: doe you not thereby intimate that a man may sometimes do so?
A30164This beginning was bad; but what shall I say?
A30164This was honest and plain: but what said Mr. Badman to her?
A30164Well but now we are upon it, pray shew me* the difference between Swearing and Cursing; for there is a difference, is there not?
A30164Well, Now suppose that a man, by an immediate hand of God is brought to a morsel of Bread, what must he do now?
A30164Well, and what did he think and do then?
A30164Well, but did Mr. Badman and his Master agree so well?
A30164Well, but it seems he did live to come out of his time, but what did he then?
A30164Well, but pray return again to Mr. Badman, how did he carry it to his wife, after he was married to her?
A30164Well, but what did he do when all was almost gone?
A30164Well, but what makes you think he is gone to Hell?
A30164Well, but what will you say to this question?
A30164Well, well; she should have gone more warily to work: what if she had acquainted some of her best, most knowing, and godly friends therewith?
A30164Well, you have told me what were Mr. Badmans thoughts( now, being sick) of his condition; pray tell me also what he then did when he was sick?
A30164What Judgment shall he make how God will deal with him, by beholding the lamb- like death of his companion?
A30164What are all these but such as Badman, and such as the young man but now mentioned?
A30164What do you find in the Word of God against such a practice, as this of Mr. Badmans is?
A30164What do you mean by need?
A30164What do you think that might be?
A30164What hath this man done now but lyed in the dispraising of his bargain?
A30164What if he had pinched a little, and gone to Journey- work for a time, that he might have known what a penny was, by his earning of it?
A30164What is it to Repent of sin?
A30164What is that?
A30164What kind of Oaths would she have?
A30164What other signe can you give me that Mr. Badman died without repentance?
A30164What other things follow upon the commission of this beastly sin?
A30164What shall I say?
A30164What shall his companion say to this?
A30164What should be the reason of that?
A30164What then doth he get thereby, that getteth by dishonest means?
A30164What then shall we do?
A30164What think you now of Mr. Badman?
A30164What would you have a man do that is in his Creditors debt, and can neither pay him what he owes him, nor go on in a trade any longer?
A30164What?
A30164Who hath babblings?
A30164Who hath contention?
A30164Who hath redness of the eyes?
A30164Who hath sorrow?
A30164Who hath woe?
A30164Who hath wounds without cause?
A30164Who, that sees an house on fire, will not give the Allarum to them that dwell therein?
A30164Who, that sees the Devils, as roaring Lyons continually devouring souls, will not make an Out- cry?
A30164Why I trow he was no High- way man, was he?
A30164Why did you not serve your own son so?
A30164Why do you think they consider that?
A30164Why then do the fallen Angels tremble there?
A30164Why was there more of them th ● n one?
A30164Why what other sins was he addicted to, I mean while he was but a Child?
A30164Why, did he take this counsel?
A30164Why?
A30164Why?
A30164Why?
A30164Will they not rather imitate Corah, Dathan, and Abiram''s friends, even rail at me for condemning him, as they did at Moses for doing execution?
A30164Would he not sometimes talk of his Wife, when she was dead?
A30164Would they not, I say, have concluded, that he was a righteous man?
A30164Wrath is cruel, and anger is outrageous, but who can stand before envy?
A30164You say he was proud: but will you shew me now some symptoms of one that is proud?
A30164You say well, for what fellowship hath he that believeth with an Infidel?
A30164and what communion hath light with darkness?
A30164and while they thus call themselves, they should be the veryest Rogues for all evil, sin, and villany imaginable, who could help it?
A30164and who shall repay him what he hath done?
A30164and who with him again but they?
A30164and why did he dispraise it, but of a covetous mind, to wrong and beguile the seller?
A30164are they forgotten?
A30164are they thrown over the barr?
A30164are you a weary of my relating of things?
A30164are you not sorry for what you have done?
A30164because they would adorn the Gospel?
A30164because they would beautifie Religion, and make sinners to fall in love with their own salvation?
A30164canst thou think, that God has given thee this, that thou mightest thereby make a prey of thy neighbour?
A30164did he die before he was born again?
A30164did he die in unbelief?
A30164doe they think that God can not be even with them?
A30164for I perceive that what you say of him now, hath reference to him, and to his actions, at the beginning of his sickness?
A30164had he faith and holiness?
A30164how do you know that these sayings are true?
A30164how long has it lasted?
A30164is it a way that my Parents brought me up in, put me Apprentice to, or that by providence I was first thrust into?
A30164is it for ought else than that for the which as you have perceived, I my self am concerned?
A30164of a wicked man dying in Despair?
A30164or did he dye with ● ase, quietly?
A30164or is it a way into which I have twisted my self, as not being contented with my first lot, that by God and my Parents I was cast into?
A30164or was his Calling so gainfull to him, as alwayes to keep his Purses belly full, though he was himself a great spender?
A30164or what part hath he that believeth with an Infidel?
A30164or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue?
A30164that thou mightest thereby goe beyond and beguile thy neighbour?
A30164was Death strong upon him?
A30164was he a lover and a Worshipper of God by Christ, according to his Word?
A30164what agreement?
A30164what communion can there be in such Marriages?]
A30164what concord?
A30164what if she had engaged a Godly Minister or two to have talked with Mr. Badman?
A30164when he saw, and knew, and could not but know, that shortly he must dye, and appear before the Judgment of God?
A30164who knows that is yet alive, what the torments of Hell are?
A30164who that sees the Land invaded, will not set the Beacons on a flame?
A30164why are they for going with their Bulls- foretops, with their naked shoulders, and Paps hanging out like a Cows bag?
A30164why he might, if he would, might he not?
A30164would such an one( thinkest thou) run again into the same course of life as before, and venture the damnation that for sin he had already been in?
A30164yea, what wilt thou then do, if Death and Hell shall come to visit thee, and thou in thy sins, and under the Curse of the Law?
A30164you speak mystically, do you not?
A3014114. Who among us can dwell with everlasting burnings, and with devouring fire?
A301413. and again, Israel that followeth after the Law of righteousness, hath not attained to the Law of righteousness: wherefore?
A301415 Have they righteousness?
A30141Again, For you are not under the Law; what is meant by this word[ LAW?]
A30141Again, are the people of God to behave themselves to the glory of God the Father?
A30141Again, when Esau threatned to slay his Brother, Rebecca sent him away saying, Why should I be deprived of you both in one day?
A30141Alas, alis, how will such professors as these are, fall before the Judgment- seat of Christ?
A30141And canst thou find in thy heart to labour to lay more sins upon his back?
A30141And doth it not also make thee the more earnestly to groan after the Lord Jesus?
A30141And how if I should not?
A30141And how sayest thou?
A30141And shall I count any thing too dear for him?
A30141And such a ready heart in him to give it to me?
A30141And what was that?
A30141And when it is committed?
A30141And when thou wast thinking to do such a thing, at such a time, did not I say, forbear, do not so?
A30141And why dost thou pass such a sad sentence of condemnation upon us?
A30141Are they enemies to thee, saith God, I will be even with them?
A30141Art thou Unrighteous in thy self, Christ is made of God thy Righteousness?
A30141As to save me sinful, me rebellious, me desperate, me, what then?
A30141But God who is rich in grace, with his great love, wherewith he loved us( when?
A30141But God who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us — that he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace: But which way?
A30141But Secondly, To the second thing, which is this, How far may such a one go?
A30141But Thirdly, The third thing touched in the question, was this; What may such a one receive of God, who is under the Curse of the Law?
A30141But alas I have nothing to carry with me, how then should I go?
A30141But alas, I am blind and can not see, what shall I do now?
A30141But alas, though I should never sin that Sin, yet I have other sins enough to Damn me?
A30141But could not we have been saved if Christ had not died?
A30141But did he indeed suffer the torments of hell?
A30141But hath not the Law promises as well as threatnings?
A30141But how doth God kill with this Law or Covenant?
A30141But how should I do?
A30141But how should I know whether Christ do so knock at my heart, as to be desirous to come in?
A30141But how?
A30141But is not this the way to make Christ to loath us?
A30141But secondly, consider, thou sayest all my strength is gone, and therefore how should I wait?
A30141But though I do wait, yet if I be not elected to eternal Life, what good will all my waiting do me?
A30141But what do you mean John?
A30141But what do you mean by these words, the Gld Covenant, as the Old Covenant?
A30141But what ground hast thou for this thy hope?
A30141But what ground hast thou to think that thou art under that blessed Covenant?
A30141But what promises in the Scripture do you find your hope built upon?
A30141But why did Christ offer himself in sacrifice?
A30141But why did God let him dye?
A30141But why did he spill his precious blood?
A30141But why did he suffer the pains of Hell?
A30141But why then is his death so slighted by some?
A30141But you will say, then, why did God give the Law, if we can not have salvation by following of it?
A30141But you will say: But who are those that are thus under the Law?
A30141But( you will say its like) how should this be made manifest, and appear?
A30141But, I am afraid the day of Grace is past, and if it should be so, what should I do then?
A30141But, saith the Soul, how if after I have received a Pardon I should commit Treason again?
A30141Can it be a Mercy for me to be troubled with my Corruptions?
A30141Can it be a Priviledge for me to be annoyed with Infirmities, and to have my best Duties infected with it?
A30141Can not he transform himself thus into an Angel of light?
A30141Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the Leopard his spots?
A30141Can''st thou read this and not feel this and not feel thy Conscience begin to throb and dagg?
A30141Canst thou hear of Christ, his bloody Sweat and Death, and not be taken with it, and not be grieved for it, and also converted by it?
A30141Canst thou hear that he suffered the pains, the fiery flames of Hell?
A30141Canst thou hear that the lead of thy sins did break the very heart of Christ, and spill his precious Blood?
A30141Canst thou hear this, and not have thy ears to tingle and burn on thy head?
A30141Canst thou now that readest or hearest these Lines, turn thy Back, and go on in thy Sins?
A30141Canst thou set so light of Heaven, of God, of Christ, and the Salvation of thy poor, yet precious Soul?
A30141Could he not have suffered without his so suffering?
A30141Didst thou ever burn any of thy Children in the Fire to Idols?
A30141Didst thou ever curse and swear, and deny Christ?
A30141Didst thou ever kill any Body?
A30141Didst thou ever use Enchantments and Conjuration?
A30141Do they slight thy groans, thy tears, thy blood thy death, thy resurrection and intercession, thy second coming again in heavenly glory?
A30141Do they slight thy merits?
A30141Do we through Faith, or preaching of the Gospel, make void the Law?
A30141Do you know what that wilful Sin is?
A30141Do you think that Ephraim would have looked after salvation, had not God first confounded him with the guilt of the sins of his youth?
A30141Doest thou find that there is but very little sanctifying Grace in thy Soul?
A30141Dost thou delight in them?
A30141Dost thou know what the unpardonable Sin( the Sin against the Holy Ghost) is?
A30141Dost thou see and find in thee Iniquity and Unrighteousness?
A30141Dost thou see in thee all manner of Wickedness?
A30141Dost thou see that thou art very much void of right Sanctification?
A30141Dost thou want Faith, then come for it to the Man Christ Jesus?
A30141Dost thou want Grace of any ● ort?
A30141Dost thou want Wisdom?
A30141Dost thou want a new Heart?
A30141Dost thou want strength against thy Lusts, against the Devils Temptations?
A30141Dost thou want strength to carry thee thorow afflictions of Body, and afflictions o ● Spirit, through Persecutions?
A30141Dost thou want the Spirit, then ask it of Jesus?
A30141Doth the Law command thee to do good, and nothing but good?
A30141Fifthly, dost thou at some time see some little Excellency in Christ?
A30141First, Consider, was it man that had offended?
A30141First, doth the Lord knock still at the door of thy Heart by his Word and Spirit?
A30141First, doth the Lord make thee sensible of thy miserable state, without an interest in Jesus Christ?
A30141First, is thy Heart hard?
A30141For Herod feared John( why?
A30141For know you not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the Kingdom of God?
A30141For the first, What this Covenant of Works is, and when it was given?
A30141Friend, if thou canst fit thy self, what need hast thou of Christ?
A30141God will smite thee, and punish thee for it, if thou doest do it?
A30141Hast thou been a Witch?
A30141Hast thou no Sins?
A30141Hath he overcome the Law, the Devil, and Hell?
A30141Hath his bleeding Wounds so much in them, as that the Fruits thereof should be the Salvation of my Soul?
A30141Have they faith?
A30141Have they hope?
A30141Have they pardon of sin?
A30141Have they strength to do the work of God in their generations?
A30141Have we comfort, or consolation?
A30141Have we the spirit, or the fruits thereof?
A30141Here is an argument of the Spirits own making, who can contradict it?
A30141How came they by their Faith?
A30141How can it possibly be?
A30141How can those that are accustomed to do evil, do that which is commanded in this particular?
A30141How canst thou deal so unkindly with such a sweet Lord Jesus?
A30141How did I deceive my self with giving of a little alms?
A30141How hast thou beguiled my poor soul?
A30141How hath my good words, good thinkings, good meanings( as the world calls them) deceived my ignorant soul?
A30141How if he had came, having taken a command from his Father to damn you, and to send you to the Devils in Hell?
A30141How many Oaths would it make you bite asunder?
A30141How much more shall your heavenly Father give the holy Spirit to them that ask him?
A30141I but when?
A30141I doubt I do not come as I should do; my Heart is naught and dead; and alas, then how should I come?
A30141If he is, then how doth it appear?
A30141If one should ask thee what ground thou hast to think thou shalt be saved; wouldst thou not say?
A30141If the first come in and say, why am I judged?
A30141If they fall away to renew them again unto Repentance: And why so?
A30141If thou wast whole, thou hadst no need of the Physician; doest thou therefore see thy self in such a sad Condition as this?
A30141In a word, are they converted?
A30141Indeed I thought my self a wise man once, but I see my self a very fool now: O how ignorant am I of the Gospel now?
A30141Is he satisfied now in the behalf of sinners by this mans thus suffering?
A30141Is it not for a man to sin willingly after enlightning?
A30141Is not this grace?
A30141Is not this true as I have said?
A30141Is there so much store in Christ?
A30141Is thy Heart slothful and idle?
A30141Lastly, Is there such Mercy as this?
A30141Lord, shall I honour thee most by believing thou canst pardon my Sins, or by believing thou canst not?
A30141My hope is grounded upon the promises, what else should it be grounded upon?
A30141Nay further, Have not we taught in thy Name?
A30141Nay, God favoured his Son no more, finding our sins upon him, then he would have favoured any of us: For, should we have died?
A30141Now it crieth out, How many promises have I broken?
A30141O grave, where is thy victory?
A30141O how should a poor Soul do this?
A30141O how would it make you strive to stop at that 〈 ◊ 〉 that now you drink down with delight?
A30141O then we should have you cry out, I must have Christ, what shall I do for Christ?
A30141Of my sinful Soul?
A30141Q ● ● st Do you think that I do mean that my righteousness will save me, without Christs?
A30141Saith the soul, Can not the Devil give one such comfort tro?
A30141Shall Christ come down from Heaven to Earth to declare this to sinners?
A30141Shall Christ covenant with God for the salvation of sinners?
A30141Shall Christ think nothing too dear for me?
A30141Shall I grieve him with my foolish Carriage?
A30141Shall I have my Sins, and lose my Soul?
A30141Shall I honour thee most by believing thou wilt pardon my Sins, or by believing thou wilt not?
A30141Shall I not now yield my Members as Instruments of Righteousness, seeing my end is everlasting Life?
A30141Shall I now be ashamed of the Cause, Wayes, People, or Saints of Jesus Christ?
A30141Shall I now love ever a Lust or Sin?
A30141Shall I slight his Counsel by following of my own Will?
A30141Shall I tell thee?
A30141Shall not I now be holy?
A30141Shall not I now study, strive, and lay out my self for him that hath laid out himself Soul and Body for me?
A30141Should we have been made a curse?
A30141Should we have undergone the pains or hell?
A30141Sinner, canst thou read that Jesus Christ was made an offering for sin, and yet go on in sin?
A30141So it is here, there is a promise made indeed, but to whom?
A30141So that, is is there righteousness in Christ?
A30141That I may know also whether the day of Grace be past with me or no?
A30141The principle( you will say) what do you mean by that?
A30141The second thing is, How are these brought into this everlasting Covenant of Grace?
A30141Then all those Virgins arose( the wise and the foolish) then, when?
A30141Thirdly, doth he sometimes give thee some secret persuasions( though not scarcely discernable) that thou mayest attain, and get an interest in him?
A30141This is much; but is God contented with this?
A30141Thus also thou may''st say, when Death assaulteth thee, O Death, where is thy sting?
A30141Turn to the strong hold, saith God, ye prisoners of hope, even to day do I declare that I will render double unto thee: Why so?
A30141Was he not fain to kill them to every thing below a Christ, that they were driven to their wits ends?
A30141Was not this the way that the Lord was fain to take to make them close in with Jesus Christ?
A30141What doest thou think that God, Christ, Prophets, and Scriptures, will all lie for thee?
A30141What hope therefore can I have?
A30141What say you, O you wounded sinners?
A30141What should I do then?
A30141What then?
A30141What, and come to Christ as a sinner?
A30141What, shall Christ become a drudge for you?
A30141When Justice it self is pleased with a man, and speaks on his side, instead of speaking against him, we may well cry out, Who shall condemn?
A30141Wherefore( saith he) as by one man sin entered into the World, and death by sin: and so death passed upon all men; mark that, but why?
A30141Which of these two Covenants art thou under, soul?
A30141Who compelled thee to swear?
A30141Who then can condemn?
A30141Who would not be in this Condition?
A30141Who would not be in this Glory?
A30141Who( now seeing all this is so effectually done) shall lay any thing, the least thing?
A30141Why Soul?
A30141Why so I pray you?
A30141Why, But Israel which followed after the Law of righteousness, have not attained to the Law of righteousness; how came that to pass?
A30141Why, What is it?
A30141Why, by the operation of the miracles that be did among them; for said they, When Christ cometh, will he do more miracles than this man hath done?
A30141Why, would you have us do nothing?
A30141Will they do me any good when Christ comes?
A30141Will you not hear the errand of Christ, although he telleth you tidings of peace and salvation?
A30141Worthy is the Lamb that was slain, to receive power and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing, And why so?
A30141Would not Heaven be better to me then my Sins?
A30141and canst thou find in thy heart, to add to his groans, by slighting of his sufferings?
A30141and doth all this stir up in thy Heart some breathings after him?
A30141and falsifie their words for thee?
A30141and hast not thou taught in our streets?
A30141and how many times have I resolved in vain?
A30141and not rather under the Covenant of Works, that strict, that soul- damning Covenant?
A30141and of the blessed experience of the Work of God on a Christians heart?
A30141and shall sinners covenant with Hell, Death, and the Devil, for the damnation of their souls?
A30141and shall sinners stop their ears against this good tidings?
A30141and so much cause to be Glad?
A30141and that naturally thou hast no share in him, no faith in him, no communion with him, no delight in him, or love in the least to him?
A30141and that with all thy soul, heart, and delight,( which the Law as a Covenant of Works called for) and can''st thou being Carnal do that?
A30141and what course should I take to be delivered from this sad and troublesome Condition?
A30141and will you be drudges for the Devil?
A30141are they such things as thou takest Pleasure in?
A30141but how shall I come by them?
A30141but how should I come?
A30141do you mean the Covenant of the Law, or the Covenant of the Gospel?
A30141doth not thy finding of this in thee, cause thee to flie from a depending on thy own doings?
A30141for Christ will not say unto men in that day, Come, which of you made a profession of me, and walked in Church- fellowship with my Saints?
A30141free grace, Lord, who desired thee to promise?
A30141had I ever in all my life time one sinful thought passed thorough my heart since I was born, yea or no?
A30141have I the right work of God on my soul?
A30141how beggarly and miserable are the sons of Adam?
A30141how hast thou deceived me?
A30141how miserably hath the Devil deceived some?
A30141how shall I come at Christ?
A30141how will God advance his Holiness?
A30141how will God advance his Justice?
A30141how will they be deceived?
A30141insomuch that they were forced to cry out, Whbat shall we do to be saved?
A30141is all right with my soul?
A30141is there so much ground of Comfort?
A30141saith the soul if a few sins are so terrible, and lay the soul under such wrath and torment, what did Christ undergo?
A30141such Priviledges as these?
A30141that is mine: Is there perfection in that righteousness?
A30141that is mine: did he bleed for sin?
A30141then such a question as this, Friend, how camest thou in hither, not having on thy wedding garment?
A30141to what may such a one attain?
A30141where will they leave their glory?
A30141whither may he arrive?
A30141whither will they fliethen?
A30141who would slight Convictions that are on their Souls, which tend so much for their good?
A30141why am I damned?
A30141with abstaining from some gross polutions?
A30141with walking in some ordinances, as to the outside of them?
A30141would not his dying only of a natural death have served the turn?
A30141would you have us make Christ such a drudge as to do all, while we sit idling still?
A30141would you not say, I did not think of Covenants or study the nature of them?
A30170Also, are we not now to walk by Faith?
A30170And could you at any time with ● … ase get off the guilt of sin, when by any of these wayes it came upon you?
A30170And did the Father reveal his Son to you?
A30170And did you ask ● … i m w ● … at man this was, and how you must be justifi ● … d by him?
A30170And did you do as you were bidden?
A30170And did you indeavour to mend?
A30170And did you presently fall under the power of this conviction?
A30170And did you think he spake true?
A30170And did you think your self well then?
A30170And do you think that the words of your Book are certainly true?
A30170And find thy felf a ● … ain without a charm?
A30170And how d ● … dyou you do then?
A30170And how then?
A30170And how was he revealed ● … nto you?
A30170And is not that a good li ● … e that is according to Gods Commandments?
A30170And is not this, said he, a shame?
A30170And what company shall we have there?
A30170And what did you do then?
A30170And what did you do then?
A30170And what is it that makes you so desirous to go to Mount Zion?
A30170And what said Faithful to you then?
A30170And what said the Neighbours to him?
A30170And what saw you else in the way?
A30170And what was the reason you did not?
A30170And what 〈 ◊ 〉 you say to him?
A30170And whereabout doth he dwell?
A30170Are we now almost got past the Inchanted ground?
A30170Are you a Married man?
A30170Are you going to the Heavenly Countrey?
A30170Art thou for something rare, and profitable?
A30170Art thou forgetful?
A30170Art thou offended?
A30170Ask him if ever he had Christ revealed to him from Heaven?
A30170Ask him, said the Interpreter?
A30170At that, Pliable began to be offended; and angerly said to his Fellow, Is this the happiness you have told me all this while o ● …?
A30170But I beheld in my Dream, that a Man came to him, whose name was Help, and asked him, W ● … at he did t ● … e?
A30170But I have let my self to another, even to the King of Princes, and how can I with fairness go back with thee?
A30170But all the way he went back, who can sufficiently set forth the sorrow of Christians heart?
A30170But canst thou not now repent and turn?
A30170But did none of them follow you, to perswade you to go back?
A30170But did not you see the House that stood there on the top of that Hil ● … on the side of which Moses met you?
A30170But did they take from him all that ever he had?
A30170But did you meet no body else in that Valley?
A30170But did you never give an ● … ccasion to men to call you by this name?
A30170But did you not come by the House of the Interpreter?
A30170But did you, said he, when you was at a stand, pluck out and read your note?
A30170But how camest thou in this condition?
A30170But how did it happen that you came out of your Countrey this way?
A30170But how do you think to get in at the Gate, for you may find some difficulty there?
A30170But how dost thou prove that?
A30170But how doth it happen that you come so late, the Sun is set?
A30170But how if this Path should lead us out of the way?
A30170But how is it that you came alone?
A30170But is it not a good heart that has good thoughts?
A30170But is it not a wonder they got not from him his Certificate, by which ● … e was to receive his admittance at the Coelestial gate?
A30170But pray tell me, did you meet no body 〈 ◊ 〉 the Valley of Humility?
A30170But said Christian, Is there no turnings nor windings by which a Stranger may loose the way?
A30170But what did she do to you?
A30170But what have you met with, said Christian?
A30170But what have you seen, said Christian?
A30170But what have you to shew at that Gate, that may cause that the Gate should be opened to you?
A30170But what is the second thing whereby you would prove a discovery of a work of grac: in the heart?
A30170But what was it that made you so fraid of this sight?
A30170But what was the cause of your carrying of it thus to the first workings of Gods blessed Spirit upon you?
A30170But when I was a little come to my self again, I asked him wherefore he served me so?
A30170But why did he not come through?
A30170But why did you not look for f the steps?
A30170But why should they be so set against him, since they also despise the way that he forsook?
A30170But why, or by what, art thou perswaded that thou hast left all for God and Heaven?
A30170But will it not be counted a Trespass, against the Lord of the City whither we are bound, thus to violate his revealed will?
A30170But you saw more then this, did you not?
A30170But, said Christian, Will your Practce stand a 〈 ◊ 〉 at Law?
A30170Can you remember by what means you find your anoyances at times, as if they were vanquished?
A30170Chr Indeed the Word saith, He hath blinded their eyes, lest they should see,& c. But now we are by our selves, what do you think of such men?
A30170Come Neighbour Christian, since there is none but us two here, tell me now further, what the things are, and how to be enjoyed, whither we are going?
A30170Come Neighbour Pliable, how do you do?
A30170Did not the Shepherds bid us beware of the flatterers?
A30170Did we not see from the delectable Mountains the Ga ● … of the City?
A30170Did you hear him tell his Dream?
A30170Did you hear not talk of Neighbour Pliable?
A30170Did you meet with no other as- sau ● … as you came?
A30170Did your Neighbours talk so?
A30170Did 〈 ◊ 〉 of them know of your coming?
A30170Do you mean, How came I at first to look after the good of my Soul?
A30170Do you not remember that one of the Shepherds bid us beware of the 〈 ◊ 〉 ground?
A30170Do you not think somtimes of the Countrey from whence you came?
A30170Do you not yet bear away with you some of the things that then you were conversant withal?
A30170Do you think that I am such a fool, as to think God can see no further then I?
A30170Do you think we shall not be received?
A30170Dost thou love picking meat?
A30170Faith: Do you know him then?
A30170For I am at the point to dye, said he, and what good will this Birth- right do me?
A30170For what did you bring your self into this condition?
A30170For who knows how, Better then he that taught us first to Plow, To guide our Mind and Pens for his Design?
A30170Friend, Whither away?
A30170From Fair- speech, s ● … d Christian; is there 〈 ◊ 〉 that be good live ther ● …?
A30170Had you no talk with him before you came out?
A30170Had you not thoughts of leaving off praying?
A30170Have they at no time, think you, convictions of sin, and so consequently fears that their state is dangerous?
A30170He asked moreover, If the Shepherds did not bid them beware of the Fla ● … terer?
A30170He asked them then, If they had not of them Shepherds a note of direction for the way?
A30170He asked them why?
A30170How came that about, since you was now Reformed?
A30170How came you to think at first of doing as you do now?
A30170How do they seek to stifle them?
A30170How doest thou believe?
A30170How doth the Fowler seek to catch his Game, By divers means, all which one can not name?
A30170How far is it thither?
A30170How far might they go on Pilgrimage in their day, since they notwithstanding were thus miserably cast away?
A30170How is it then that thou hast ran away from thy King?
A30170How lo ● … g d ● … d y ● … u 〈 ◊ 〉 in the City of Destruction, 〈 ◊ 〉 you set out ● … ter me on your Pilgrimage?
A30170How then shall I look him in the face at his coming?
A30170How will you describe right fear?
A30170I asked him further, How that mans righteousness could be of that efficacy, to justifie another before God?
A30170I asked him then, What was his work?
A30170I further asked him, What House he kept, and what other Servants he had?
A30170I have given him my faith, and sworn my Allegiance to him; how then can I go back from this, and not be hanged as a Traitor?
A30170I looked then, and saw a Man named Evangelist coming to him, and asked, W ● … erefore dost t ● … ou cry?
A30170In such a method too, and yet not miss Mine end, thy good?
A30170Inter: Why?
A30170Is it meet to think that a little child should handle Goliah as David did?
A30170Is the way safe, or dangerous?
A30170Is there in this place any relief for Pilgrims that are weary and faint in the way?
A30170Is this the way to the Coelestial City?
A30170It is this, Do you experience the first part of this description of it?
A30170It will not be said then, Did you believe?
A30170Know you not that it is written, That he that cometh not in by the door, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber?
A30170Look before thee; dost thou see this narrow way?
A30170Look, said Christian, did not I tell you so?
A30170May I not write in such a stile as this?
A30170May I speak a few words in my own defence?
A30170Met you with nothing else in that Valley?
A30170Must here the burden fall from off my back?
A30170Must here the strings that bound it to me, crack?
A30170Now as they came up to these places, behold the Gardener stood in the way; to whom the Pilgrims said, Whose goodly Vineyards and Gardens are these?
A30170One chanced mockingly, beholding the carriages of the men, to say unto them, What will ye buy?
A30170Or else be drownded in thy Contemplation?
A30170Or would''st thou in a moment laugh, and weep?
A30170Piety What moved you at first to betake yourself to a Pilgrims life?
A30170Plia: Well said; what things are they?
A30170Pray Sir, what ma ● … I call you?
A30170Pray did you know him?
A30170Pray what count you good thoughts, and a life according to Gods Commandments?
A30170Pray what is he?
A30170Pray who are your Kindred there, if a man may be so bold?
A30170Should I now be 〈 ◊ 〉 of his wavs and Servants, how can I expect the blessing?
A30170Sir, is it not time for me to go on my way now?
A30170So Christian asked him, From what parts he came?
A30170So when Ch ● … was stepping in, the other gave him a pull; Then ● … i d Christian, What means that?
A30170So when he was got in, the Man of the Gate asked him, Who directed him thither?
A30170Th ● … n with a grim and surly voice he bid them awake, and asked them whence they were?
A30170That''s not like, said the other; look, doth it not go along by the way side?
A30170The Man therefore Read it, and looking upon Evangelist very carefully; said, Whither must I fly?
A30170The Porter also asked whence he was, and whither he was going?
A30170The Shepherds then answered, Did you not see a little below these Mountains a Stile that led into a Meadow on the left hand of this way?
A30170The hearing of this is enough to ravish ones heart; but are these things to be enjoyed?
A30170The men then asked, What must we do in the holy place?
A30170Then Christian asked, What is the reason of the discontent of Passion?
A30170Then Christian called to Demas, saying, Is not the place dangerous?
A30170Then Christian said to him, Come away man, why do you stay so behind?
A30170Then Demas called again, saying, But will you not come over and see?
A30170Then Faithful stept forward again, and said to Talkative: Come, what chear?
A30170Then I asked him furth ● … r, How I must make my supp ● … ication to him?
A30170Then I asked him his name, and where he dwelt?
A30170Then I asked him, What I must do when I came?
A30170Then I asked, How long time he would have me live with him?
A30170Then I asked, If he had any children?
A30170Then I said, But how, Lord, must I consider of thee in my coming to thee, that my faith may be placed aright upon thee?
A30170Then did the Judge say to him, Hast thou any more to say?
A30170Then directing his Speech to Ignorance, he said, Come, how do you?
A30170Then he asked them, saying, Where did you lie the last night?
A30170Then said Christian to Hopeful his Fellow, Is it true which this man hath said?
A30170Then said Christian to the Interpreter, But is there no hopes for such a Man as this?
A30170Then said Christian to the Man, What art thou?
A30170Then said Christian to the Porter, Sir, What house is this?
A30170Then said Christian, May we go in thither?
A30170Then said Christian, What is thy name?
A30170Then said Christian, What meaneth this?
A30170Then said Christian, What means this?
A30170Then said Christian, What means this?
A30170Then said Christian, What means this?
A30170Then said Christian, What means this?
A30170Then said Christian, What means this?
A30170Then said Christian, What means this?
A30170Then said Christian, Why doth this Man thus tremble?
A30170Then said Christian, You make me afraid, but whither shall I fly to be safe?
A30170Then said Evangelist, Why not willing to die?
A30170Then said Evangelist, pointing with his finger over a very wide Field, Do you see yonder* Wicket- gate?
A30170Then said Hopeful to the Shepherds, I perceive that these had on them, even every one, a shew of Pilgrimage as we have now; had they not?
A30170Then said Hopeful, Where are we now?
A30170Then said Pliable, Ah, Neighhour Christian, where are you now?
A30170Then said the Interpreter to Christian, Hast thou considered all these things?
A30170Then said the Interpreter, Is there no hope but you must be kept in this Iron Cage of Despair?
A30170Then said the Man, Neighbours, Wheresore are you come?
A30170Then said the Shepherds one to another, Shall we shew these Pilgrims some wonders?
A30170Then said the other, Do you see yonder* shining light?
A30170Then said they, Have you none?
A30170Then the water stood in mine eyes, and I asked further, But Lord, may such a great sinner as I am, be indeed accepted of thee, and be saved by thee?
A30170Then they called Superstition, and bid him look upon the Prisoner; they also asked, What he could say for th ● … ir Lord the King against him?
A30170These men asked the ● … ilgrims whence they came?
A30170They are my fears of him too: But who can hinder that which will be?
A30170They was then asked, If they knew the Prisoner at the Bar?
A30170This is excellent; And what else?
A30170Thou hast already been unfaithful in thy service to him, and how dost thou t ● … ink to receive wages of him?
A30170Thou talkest like one upon whose head is the Shell to this very day: For what should he pawn them?
A30170To whom Christian said, Sirs, what''s the matter you run the wrong way?
A30170Tush, said Obstinate, away with your Book; will you go back with us, or no?
A30170Was that all that you saw at the House of the Interpreter?
A30170Well Ignorance, wilt thou yet foolish be, To flight good Counsel, ten times given thee?
A30170Well said; and what else?
A30170Well then, Did you not know about ten years ago, one Temporary in your parts, who was a forward man in Religion then?
A30170Well then, said Faithful, what is that one thing, that we shall at this time found our discourse upon?
A30170Well, and how did you answer him?
A30170Well, and how did you apply this to your self?
A30170Well, and what conclusion came the Old Man, and you to, at last?
A30170Well, but what art thou now?
A30170Well, if you will not, will you give me leave to do it?
A30170Wh ● … n I came to the foot of the Hill called Di ● … iculty, I met with a very aged Man, who asked me, What I was, and whither bound?
A30170What are good thoughts concerning God?
A30170What are the things you seek, since you leave all the World to find them?
A30170What be good thoughts respecting our selves?
A30170What can a man do in this case?
A30170What did you do then?
A30170What good motions?
A30170What if my Gold be wrapped up in Ore?
A30170What is the meaning of your Laughter?
A30170What is your name?
A30170What of that I tro?
A30170What shall we do to be rid of him?
A30170What thing so deserving, as to turn us out of the way?
A30170What things so pleasant?
A30170What things were they?
A30170What wast thou once?
A30170What would you have me to do?
A30170What, and did no more of them but you come out to escape the danger?
A30170What, shall we talk further with him?
A30170When Christ said, Do you know all th ● … se things?
A30170When does our thoughts of our selves agree with the Word of God?
A30170When he was come to the place where they were, He asked them whence they came?
A30170Whence come you, and whither are you bound?
A30170Where shall we begin?
A30170Whither are you going?
A30170Who could have thought that this path should have led us out of the way?
A30170Who told thee that thy heart and life agrees together?
A30170Who was that, that bid him forbear?
A30170Whose Son is he?
A30170Why art thou so tart my Brother?
A30170Why came you not in at the Gate which standeth at the beginning of the way?
A30170Why did not Little- faith pluck up a great heart?
A30170Why man?
A30170Why my Brother?
A30170Why, I tro you did not consent to her de ● … res?
A30170Why, are you weary of this discourse?
A30170Why, how dost 〈 ◊ 〉 think on this matter?
A30170Why, what did he say to you?
A30170Why, what diff ● … nce is there between crying out again ● … t and abhoring of sin?
A30170Why, what was it that brought your sins to mind again?
A30170Why?
A30170Why?
A30170Will a man give a penny to fill his belly with Hay?
A30170Would''st read thy self, and read thou know''st not what And yet know whether thou art blest or not, By reading the same lines?
A30170Would''st thou be in a Dream, and yet not sleep?
A30170Would''st thou be pleasant, yet be far from folly?
A30170Would''st thou divert thy self from Melancholly?
A30170Would''st thou read Riddles,& their Explanation?
A30170Wouldest thou loose thy self, and catch no harm?
A30170Wouldest thou see a Truth within a Fable?
A30170You see the ways the Fisher- man doth take To catch the Fish; what Engins doth he make?
A30170an ● … what would you have?
A30170and doth your life and conversation testifie the same?
A30170and how far go you this way?
A30170and may I lodge here to night?
A30170and so leave him to think of what he hath heard already; and then stop again for him afterwards, and see if by degrees we can do any good of him?
A30170and they told them; they also asked them, Where they had lodg''d, what 〈 ◊ 〉, and dangers, what comforts and pleasures they had met in the way?
A30170and what he would have?
A30170and what the wages that he would give?
A30170and what they did in his grounds?
A30170and what they did there?
A30170and whence he ca ● …?

A30170and whose be the sheep that feed upon them?
A30170and, By what means have you so persevered therein?
