A32058 | will you take the members of Christ, and make them members of an harlot? |
A32041 | 4 Wherein the grievousnesse, and mischievousnesse of this sinne consisteth? |
A32041 | Are there any Christians of this minde? |
A32041 | But how shall I know whether I am but a pretender to the things of Iesus Christ? |
A32041 | But what are the things of Iesus Christ? |
A32041 | But why are these things called their own? |
A32041 | Is it not because all men seek their own and not the things of Jesus Christ? |
A32041 | Is it not because all men seek their own, and not the thin ● s of Jesus Christ? |
A32041 | Is it not because all men seek their own, and not the things of Jesus Christ? |

A32041 | Q Did these Primitive Christians not at all seek the things of Christ? |
A32041 | So much cousenage and false dealing in our commerce one with another, in a word, what is the cause of all our miseries both in Church and State? |
A32041 | That Jesus Christ sought not his owne things, he left Heaven for us, and shall not we neglect Earth for him? |
A32041 | The fourth and last question is, wherein the grievousnesse and mischievousnesse of this sinfull self- seeking consisteth? |
A32041 | The truth is, if the Church and the true Religion be destroyed, to what purpose is it for a godly man to live? |
A32041 | Their own, 〈 ◊ 〉? |

A32041 | Whether all selfe- seeking be contradictory to Christ- seeking? |
A32041 | Whether all selfe- seeking, be diametrically opposite to Christ seeking? |
A32041 | how may I glorifie my selfe, by glorifying of thee? |
A32041 | marrying a Wife in comparison of being married to Jesus Christ? |
A32041 | or was it not rather that thereby he might be revenged of the Pope, who would not allow of his Divorce from his first Wife? |
A32041 | that so many silence themselves, and suffer Religion to be almost lost, and yet dare not appeare for it? |
A32041 | under pretence of being Peters successor, and of having ● eters keyes, and chaire? |
A32041 | was it out of love to the true Religion? |
A32041 | what is the reason that there is so much oppression and injustice in places of judicature? |
A32041 | whether I am one who makes use of Religion to serve mine owne interest? |

A31997 | or hath hee spoken, and shall hee not make it good? |
A31997 | what wouldest thou have mee to do? |
A31927 | & c. But suppose the nation should not repent, what good will my personall repentance do to the nation or to my self? |
A31927 | & c. Get thee up, saith God to Ioshua, why lyest thou on the ground? |
A31927 | & c. Was the Lord Iesus Christ broken for me, and shall not my heart be broken for my sins against him? |
A31927 | 18, 19. that brought Apostles why they could not goe to heaven? |
A31927 | A repenting Parliament; a repenting Army; and a repenting people; what miracles might not they do? |
A31927 | And God he cals, How long O England? |
A31927 | And do not some of these now begin to grieve, that they have grieved so much for their sinnes? |
A31927 | And if any of these two peradventures should happen? |
A31927 | And that God is never displeased with his people though they fall into adultery, or any other sin: no, not with a Fatherly displeasure? |
A31927 | And that God never chastiseth his people for any sinne: no, not with a Fatherly chastisement? |
A31927 | And that an unbeleeving and an impenitent sinner is as actually pardoned in Gods sight of all his sinnes, as he is if he beleeves and repents? |
A31927 | And that which is yet more sad, Are there not some that preach against humiliation? |
A31927 | And what can we give to God to satisfie him, but that which he hath first given to us? |
A31927 | And yet notwithstanding all this, where shall we finde a penitent sinner? |
A31927 | Are there not some that tell us, that Repentance is a legall Grace? |
A31927 | Are you not as covetous? |
A31927 | Are you not as proud as ever? |
A31927 | Are you not as vain in your fashions? |
A31927 | Behold( saith the Lord) I do now begin to pull down what I have built, and to destroy what I have planted, and seekest thou great things for thy self? |
A31927 | But I suppose it is a question with none, That if the man go to hell for want of repentance, what shall then become of the Parliament man? |
A31927 | Can the Lord hear you repent? |
A31927 | Can the children of the Bridegroom mourn when the Bridegroom is with them? |
A31927 | Consider whether this be equal: Would you have God give you a good return of your prayers, and will not you give God a good return of his Word? |
A31927 | Do you Noble- men, you Gentlemen, you Common people, do you repent? |
A31927 | Doth not, God many times remove the judgement of the Sword, or of the Plague,& c. from a Nation when that Nation doth not repent? |
A31927 | Examine seriously and let conscience speak: Hast thou the childe of repentance formed in thee with every limb in truth; though not in perfection? |
A31927 | Fifthly, What can a poor creature contribute to satisfie an infinite God? |
A31927 | For if afflictions be satisfactions to Gods vengeance, and part of the temporal curse due to sin, where is the comfort of affliction? |
A31927 | Hath not God many times removed the Plague from the City of London, when London hath not repented of her iniquities? |
A31927 | I appeal to your consciences: Is it fit that God should cease fighting against us by the Sword, before we cease fighting against him by our sins? |
A31927 | I beseech you tell me, what sin have you left since these wars began? |
A31927 | I hearkened and heard, but they spake not aright: no man repented him of his wickednesse, saying, What have I done? |
A31927 | If any man sin against the Law, he hath the Gospel to fly unto; but if he sin against the Gospel, what shall he then fly unto? |
A31927 | Is there any man that doth not repent? |
A31927 | Is this a time to seek your own ends? |
A31927 | It is a question with some( though with me it is no question) Whether a wicked man can be a good Parliament man? |
A31927 | It is an easie matter to finde a sinner, but where shall we finde a penitent sinner even in these daies? |
A31927 | Now do you think God will regard your prayers this day, if you do not repent this day? |
A31927 | Oh Parliament of England? |
A31927 | Say not, To morrow I will go to such a city,& c. for what is your life, is it not even a vapour? |
A31927 | Some will say, What is that Repentance which is the unum necessarium for England, and which is The great Commandment of God for England? |
A31927 | This you command us; Now I beseech you tell me, Do you do so your selves? |
A31927 | We are as farre from the end, as we were in the beginning: and what is the reason? |
A31927 | We cry out, How long, Lord? |
A31927 | We must forsake sinne not for worldly respects, or self- ends, but we must say with Ioseph, How can I commit this thing and sinne against my God? |
A31927 | What sinne have you left since you took your Covenant, and swore to reform your lives? |
A31927 | When wilt thou have mercy upon England? |
A31927 | When wilt thou sheath up the Sword? |
A31927 | Why should ye be stricken any more? |
A31927 | Will you secure us, that God will heal the Nation if it repents? |
A31927 | Would you have the plaister taken away before the wound be cured? |
A31927 | and that tell us, that humiliation is but a back- door to heaven, and a back- door to Christ? |
A31927 | as vild in your courses as ever? |
A31927 | how long will it be before you be washed from your Uncleannesses? |
A31927 | how long? |
A31927 | when will it once be? |
A31927 | when will you repent of all those sinnes you command the Kingdom to repent of? |
A31927 | when will you turn to me? |
A31927 | when will you turn unto me with all your heart? |
A31927 | where is your mourning? |
A31927 | ye will revolt more and more& c, That is, Why should I be so mercifull unto you, as to punish you? |
A31927 | — Or those eighteen upon whom the Tower of Siloe fell, and slew them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Ierusalem? |
A78979 | & c. So say I: Is this a time to trouble England with New Opinions? |
A78979 | 12. how quickly would these wars( through Gods blessing) be at end? |
A78979 | And are not we at this time in great extremity? |
A78979 | And is not this the practise of our times? |
A78979 | And shall not we agree together to save three Kingdomes? |
A78979 | And shall we not weep bitterly before the Lord this day for these sinnes? |
A78979 | And though these Lawes were afterwards repealed ▪ yet how often have we Apostatized from God since that time? |
A78979 | And what shal we say to the desolate and bleeding condition of England, and Ireland, at this present? |
A78979 | And who would not willingly sacrifice up his life to the fire to see King and Parliament throughly agreed? |
A78979 | And why are Christians divided if Christ were not divided? |
A78979 | Are we not brought very low by our sinnes, and by our divisions the fruit of our sinnes? |
A78979 | But who now shall roll away this great stone from the doore of the Sepulchre? |
A78979 | Can Christian eares endure such language? |
A78979 | Doe not men boast of their adulteries, and yet escape unpunished? |
A78979 | For he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seene, how can he love God whom he hath not seene? |
A78979 | For who will venture into a ship that is tossed with contrary waves, and ready to sinke? |
A78979 | Hast thou faith? |
A78979 | He that did his neighbour the wrong thrust him away, saying, Who made thee a Ruler and a Judge over us? |
A78979 | Heaven it selfe, it is nothing but tranquillitas pacis; what is God, but the God of peace? |
A78979 | If Divisions be so destructive to Kingdomes, Cities, and Families? |
A78979 | If London were as a City at unity within it selfe, what could destroy it? |
A78979 | If Satan be divided against Satan( saith Christ) how can his Kngdome stand? |
A78979 | If one God, and one Lord, and one body,& c. Shall not his children be one? |
A78979 | Is Christ divided? |
A78979 | Is if not a sad thing to see the Members rent and torne one from the other? |
A78979 | Is not the Kingdome the Magistrates House and Family? |
A78979 | Is this a time to receive money? |
A78979 | Let God himselfe take care to vindicate himselfe from injuries committed against God? |
A78979 | Shall Christian Magistrates take up the Maxime of Tiberius, Deorum iniurias Diis curae esse? |
A78979 | Shall Iudas conspire with the Pharisees and Sadduces to betray Christ? |
A78979 | Shall Paul and Barnabas divide one from another? |
A78979 | Shall the Cheap- side Crosse be taken down( wherein you have done well;) and shall your Cheapside iniquities, your Cheapside adulteries yet remaine? |
A78979 | Shall the Lions, Bearee, Tygers, Wolves, Lambes and Sheepe,& c. that were shut up in the Arke, agree together while they were in the Arke? |
A78979 | Shall we agree well in heaven, and shall we not agree together upon earth? |
A78979 | So say I; Is England a perishing, and is this a time to trouble it with unnecessary disputations? |
A78979 | Tell me I beseech you, Shall it be lawfull for Magistrates to punish those that destroy mens bodies, but not those that destroy mens soules? |
A78979 | That in the New Testament Kings shall be our nursing Fathers, and Queenes our nursing Mothers? |
A78979 | The common people were astonished and said; Is this the sonne of David? |
A78979 | To see a Holy, Safe, and well- grounded Peace made? |
A78979 | Was his garment kept whole, and shall his body be rent and torne in pieces? |
A78979 | Was not a bone of Christ broken upon the Crosse, and shall all his members breake in pieces now he is in heaven? |
A78979 | We live in the sadest dayes that ever England saw, and yet what aboundance of pride is there in apparell? |
A78979 | What coldnesse and formality in Gods worship? |
A78979 | What deadnesse of heart? |
A78979 | What is that, that keeps the fabrick of Heaven from dissolving into pieces, but the Vnitie and the agreement of the discordant Elements? |
A78979 | What keeps the body of a man in health, but the just proportion and harmonie of every part? |
A78979 | What keeps this great fabrick here from falling, but the Vnion and conjunction of the parts of it? |
A78979 | What unthankfulnesse? |
A78979 | and shall the Disciples of Christ fall out amongst themselves? |
A78979 | and what is Christ, but the Prince of Peace? |
A78979 | that, that Head, that should be like a head of gold, is now, through ill counsell, made a head of iron, to crush its own body in pieces? |
A78979 | what lustfull fashions, even in these bloody dayes? |
A78979 | what securitie in sinne, even whilest the Ship of the Kingdome is sinking? |
A32016 | ( saith he) shall such a man as I feare?) |
A32016 | 10. Who hath despised the day of small things? |
A32016 | Am I such a one as this is? |
A32016 | And God demands of Ezekiel: Can these drie bones live? |
A32016 | And as the Apostles severally asked Christ, Master, is it I? |
A32016 | And this Mercy did so melt his heart, that he cryes out, What is thy servant, that thou shouldest looke upon such a dead Dog as I am? |
A32016 | And where should we goe for a broken heart, but to the heart- maker? |
A32016 | And yet notwithstanding are there not many of us that sinne in the midst of mercies? |
A32016 | Be astonished O ye Heavens at this, and be horribly afraid, be ye ve ● … y desolate, saith the Lord; Why? |
A32016 | But doth not God indent and Covenant with a Nation, upon its repentance, to shew mercy, how then is Gods mercy free? |
A32016 | But he was above all feare( shall such a man as I fly? |
A32016 | Hath he not made thee, and established thee? |
A32016 | Have I abused these mercies? |
A32016 | Have I sinned with these mercies? |
A32016 | How angry was Christ with Peter, because he would not suffer him to wash his feete? |
A32016 | How many mountaines of opposition have melted before you, as mountaines of snow before the Sun? |
A32016 | How often hath God appeared in the mount these two last yeares, as if he had resolved to take up his dwelling there? |
A32016 | I have done many great workes among you, for which of these doe you stone me? |
A32016 | If Gods mercies be so rare here in the valley of teares, what are they in the mountaine of joy? |
A32016 | If thou art converted, blesse God for free grace: For who made thee to differ from another? |
A32016 | Is not he the God that hath multiplyed mercies upon us? |
A32016 | Is not he thy father that bought thee? |
A32016 | May I not say to you as Moses to the Israelites; Doe ye thus requite the Lord, O ye foolish people and unwise? |
A32016 | May not Christ say to you as he did to the Jewes? |
A32016 | May not a man that hath two debtors equally indebted to him, spare the one and not the other, as he pleaseth? |
A32016 | May we not give praise and thankes to the Parliament that hath taken such indefatigable paines for our good? |
A32016 | Neither say they, Where is the Lord that brought us up out of the land of Aegypt? |
A32016 | None so patient and mercifull as God, but yet when he begins to strike, and his anger is kindled, how unexpressible is his fury? |
A32016 | Now as the Wiseman saith, Who knowes what a day may bring forth? |
A32016 | Say as Nabal did( but in a better sense) shal I take my health which God hath given me, to sin against my God with it? |
A32016 | Shall I take the wit that God hath given me, to plot against God and his cause with it? |
A32016 | So m ● … t we aske our hearts, Am not I the man that ought to be ashamed, and ● … nfoundid for my sins against mercies? |
A32016 | So must we say, Num ego talis? |
A32016 | That are like the Horse and Mule that have no understanding? |
A32016 | This sin is so great, that the Apostle cries out, Shall I take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an Harlot? |
A32016 | Thou, for whom I have done so much: Wherefore hast thou despised the Commandement of the Lord? |
A32016 | What a mercy is it to be out of hell? |
A32016 | What excuse shall we bring? |
A32016 | What shall we say after this, O our God? |
A32016 | What shall we say? |
A32016 | What shift shall we plead? |
A32016 | What so blunt as iron? |
A32016 | What so calme as the Sea? |
A32016 | What would Germany give, if they had these mercies? |
A32016 | What would Ireland doe for God, if they had these mercies? |
A32016 | When David was used unkindly by Nabal, upon whom he had bestowed many courtesies, how did this unkindnesse provoke David to anger? |
A32016 | Wherefore hast thou despised the Commandement of the Lord to doe evill in his sight? |
A32016 | Who art thou, O great mountaine, before Zerubbabel? |
A32016 | Who can tell if God will turne, and repent,& c.? |
A32016 | Who knowes but that God may reare us up a glorious Church? |
A32016 | Who knows what a mercy such a day as this may bring forth? |
A32016 | Who knows what a rare successe this day may have throughout all England? |
A32016 | and Moses himselfe spake unadvisedly with his lips, when he said, Shall we bring water out of this Rocke,& c? |
A32016 | and if thou didst receive it; why dost thou glory as if thou hadst not received it? |
A32016 | and is this the manner of man O Lord God? |
A32016 | and what hast thou which thou hast n ● … t received? |
A32016 | but when it is sh ● … rpned, what more sharpe? |
A32016 | but yet when a storme comes, what so tempestuous? |
A32016 | can God make a way through the hoasts of the Phi ● … istines? |
A32016 | that remaine irreformable in a yeare of Reformation, that not onely hate to be reformed, but hate the very Reformation it selfe? |
A32016 | that sinne under mercies, even under mercies? |
A32016 | what is the matter? |
A32016 | will they fortifie themselves? |
A32016 | will they make an end in a day? |
A32016 | will they revive the stones, out of the heapes of the rubbish which are bu ● … nt? |
A32016 | wouldst thou not be angry with us, till thou hadst consumed us, so that there should be no remnant nor escaping? |
A78965 | 1, 2, 3,& c. Is not unity the happinesse of heaven? |
A78965 | 14. Who knoweth whether God hath not raised you up to be Mayor, to be Sheriffs, Aldermen, and Common Councell men for such a time as this is? |
A78965 | Aequissime judex, judica quod aequum est, judica meum esse qui tuus esse noluit post renunciationem; Vt quid invasit pannos meos? |
A78965 | And as for Jesus Christ who is the Angell of the covenant: are there not some amongst us that un- god Jesus Christ? |
A78965 | And do not we deal so with the Covenant? |
A78965 | And if families be not reformed, how will your worshippers be pure? |
A78965 | And is not the godly Mininistery as much persecuted by the tongues of some that would be accounted godly, as heretofore by the Bishops hands? |
A78965 | And is this to keep Covenant with God? |
A78965 | And shall not God be avenged of such a Nation as this? |
A78965 | And shall not God be avenged of such a nation as this? |
A78965 | And the Lord shall separate him,& c. And when the nations shall say, Wherefore hath the Lord done thus unto this land? |
A78965 | And what can you not do? |
A78965 | Are there not many amongst us that scorn it and speak reproachfully of it? |
A78965 | Are there not many that walk professedly contrary to this clause of the Covenant? |
A78965 | Are there not some that deal hypocritically in the Covenant? |
A78965 | Are there not some that put corrupt glosses upon it, and deale falsely in the Covenant? |
A78965 | Are there not thousands that have sworne to be Christs servants, and yet are in their lives the Vassals of sin and Satan? |
A78965 | Are we not Covenant- breakers? |
A78965 | Are we not like unto little children, that while they are whipping will promise any thing, but when the whipping is over will perform nothing? |
A78965 | Are we not to buy the truth and sell it not? |
A78965 | But how few are there that imitate David in this thing? |
A78965 | But some will say, How shall I doe to get up my heart to this high pitch that I may be a Covenant- keeper? |
A78965 | But what bosome sin, what beloved sin, as dear to thee as thy dear wife and children, hast thou left for Gods sake since thou tookest this Oath? |
A78965 | But where is this Family- reformation? |
A78965 | But where is this thorough Reformation, this thorough amendment of life? |
A78965 | But where shall we finde a mourner in England for his own abominations, and for the abominations that are committed in the midst of us? |
A78965 | But who makes conscience of this part of the Oath? |
A78965 | Did not Christ come into the world to bear Witnesse to the truth? |
A78965 | Did not grace and truth come by Iesus Christ? |
A78965 | Do we not make the times perilous by our falsifying of our oath and covenant with God? |
A78965 | First, for the Lords Supper; How often have we spilt the bloud of Christ by our unworthy approaches to his Table? |
A78965 | How comes it then to passe that this part of the Covenant is so much forgotten? |
A78965 | How dear and precious were Gods people one to another,& c. But now how are our Fasting- dayes sleighted and vilified? |
A78965 | How hard a matter is it to obtain power to keep the blood of Christ from being profaned by ignorant and scandalous Communicants? |
A78965 | How is it that men bend their tongues like bowes for lies, but they are not valiant for the truth upon earth? |
A78965 | How is it then that truth is fallen in the streets, and equity can not enter? |
A78965 | I have made a Covenant with mine eyes, why then should I thinke upon a maid? |
A78965 | Is every man that sins against the Covenant to be accounted a Covenant- breaker, and a perjured, sacrilegious person? |
A78965 | Is it not a good& pleasant thing for brethren to dwell together in unity? |
A78965 | Is it not the happinesse of a City to be at unity within it self? |
A78965 | Is not Christ the way, the truth, and the life? |
A78965 | Is not the Holy Bible by some rather wrested then read? |
A78965 | Is not truth more precious then gold, and more to be prized then Rubies? |
A78965 | Judge him to be mine, who refused to be thine even after he had renounced me in his Baptisme; What had he to doe to wear my Livery? |
A78965 | Our enemies say, What doe these feeble Presbyterians meane? |
A78965 | Promissa haec tuasunt, Domine;& quis falli timet cum promittit ipsa veritas? |
A78965 | Quid apud eum lascivia, incontinentia,& c. quibus ipse renunciaverit? |
A78965 | Quid intemperantia, quid gula, quid fastus, quid caetera mea? |
A78965 | That are very indifferent which side prevaile, so they may have their trading again? |
A78965 | The question I put to you is this: How often have you broke covenant with God? |
A78965 | The sinners of Sion are afraid: who shall dwell with everlasting burnings? |
A78965 | Was not unity one of the chief parts of Christs prayer unto his Father when he was here upon earth? |
A78965 | We speak and contend much for a Church- reformation; but how can there be a Church- reformation, unlesse there be first a Family- reformation? |
A78965 | What Noblemans, what Aldermans, what Merchants family is more reformed since the Covenant, then before? |
A78965 | What had he to doe with gluttony, drunkennesse, pride, wantonnesse, incontinencie; and the rest of my ware? |
A78965 | What meaneth the heat of this great anger? |
A78965 | What sin hast thou left, or in what one thing hast thou bin reformed since thou tookest this Covenant? |
A78965 | What though the Church- worship be pure, yet if the worshippers be impure, God will not accept of the worship? |
A78965 | Who can abide in the fiercenesse of his anger? |
A78965 | Who can stand before his indignation? |
A78965 | Who can stand? |
A78965 | and can we think that God will be easily intreated to sheath up his bloody sword, and to cease shedding our blood? |
A78965 | and is it not fit and equall that God should un- church us, and un- people us? |
A78965 | how are the people of God divided one from another, railing upon( in stead of loving) one another? |
A78965 | how beautifull were the feet of them that brought the Gospell of peace unto you? |
A78965 | how comes it to passe that thou art so much sleighted and contemned? |
A78965 | how is it that truth faileth, and he that departeth from evill maketh himself a prey? |
A78965 | that take it meerly to serve their own turns, to save their credits, or to save their estates, or to hide their malignancy? |
A78965 | where is the man that hath made restitution of his ill gotten goods since he took this Covenant? |
A78965 | will they fortifie themselves? |
A78965 | will they make an end in a day? |
A78965 | will they revive the stones out of the heaps of the rubbish which are burnt? |
A78965 | woe is me, who can dwell with everlasting burnings? |
A31952 | & c. Wherefore is there a price in the hand of a fool? |
A31952 | ( saith the Apostle) it is God that justifieth, who is he t ● at condemneth? |
A31952 | * Who shall lay any thing, to the charge of Gods elect? |
A31952 | A new heart will I give you, saith the Lord, and what follows? |
A31952 | And hath he not then Union with Christ? |
A31952 | And must not that needs be a special work of the Spirit of G ● d in man, which strongly argues the special Love of God towards man? |
A31952 | And, how may I discern whether I have a new heart, yea, or nay? |
A31952 | Art thou then a sufferer; Consider whether thou sufferest as a Christian, yea, or nay? |
A31952 | As if he had said, How shall we that are dead to the guilt of sinne, take pleasure in the filth of sinne, or wallow in any sinne with delight? |
A31952 | But here the great question will be, How shall I do this? |
A31952 | But how shall I do that? |
A31952 | But how shall I know, whether Gods chastisements be sanctified ● o me, or not? |
A31952 | But how shall I know, whether my love to man be sound, and such as demonstrates the holy Spirits saving habitation in me, or not? |
A31952 | But how shall that appeare? |
A31952 | But if this be not the meaning of this Scripture, what then is the meaning of it? |
A31952 | But what Spirit was the Lord Iesus Christ of? |
A31952 | But what is it to be in Christ? |
A31952 | But what is it to suffer as a Christian? |
A31952 | But what is that poverty of spirit, which Christ pronounceth blessed, and on which he entailes the kingdome of Heaven? |
A31952 | But what is that( may some say) what is a new Creature? |
A31952 | But what is this Evangelicall contrition? |
A31952 | But what is this Obedience you speake of? |
A31952 | But what is this grace of Repentance? |
A31952 | But where then is assurance to be found? |
A31952 | But you will say, How shall I do this? |
A31952 | But you will say, How shall I know, whether my heart be washed from wickedness, or not? |
A31952 | But you will say, What is a new heart? |
A31952 | By what Law? |
A31952 | Divine joy, What? |
A31952 | Divine patience, What? |
A31952 | Go ye and teach all Nations, saith Christ to his Apostles, What should they teach them? |
A31952 | HOw may I come to be truly, and infallibly assured of my salvation? |
A31952 | Hearts broken with Evangelical sorrow are very pliable to the will of the Lord above all other, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? |
A31952 | How may I discern, whether my Obedience be sincere and cordiall Obedience, yea, or nay? |
A31952 | How may it be defined? |
A31952 | How may it be defined? |
A31952 | How may it be described? |
A31952 | How shall I go to work to attain this precious jewel of assurance which you speak of? |
A31952 | How shall I then know, whether God chastise me in love or in displeasure? |
A31952 | How shall I try the testimony that I have, whether it be of God or no? |
A31952 | How shall we that are dead to sinne, live any longer therein? |
A31952 | I am unprofitable to God and man: When saw I thee a stranger, and took thee in? |
A31952 | Is Ephraim my deare sonne, is he a pleasant Child? |
A31952 | Israel was a fruit- bearing vine, yet but an empty vine; how comes this to passe? |
A31952 | Lord, when saw we thee an hungred? |
A31952 | O wretched man that I am, Who shall deliver me( and when shall I be delivered) from the body of this death? |
A31952 | Secondly, Whether thy Chastisiments are sanctified to thee, or not? |
A31952 | Shall the thing formed, say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus? |
A31952 | Shall we receive good at the hand of God? |
A31952 | So say thou to the Lord, respecting that land above, of which Canaan was a type, Lord, God, whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it? |
A31952 | The third thing premised is; Who they are to whom Chastisements and scourgings are pledges of Divine love? |
A31952 | Their heart was not right with God, that is, their hearts were not sincere and upright: but how doth that appeare? |
A31952 | Then again, say as he, What seest thou? |
A31952 | To get assurance of this, thou must diligently examine thy self, whether thou hast the Spirit of Christ, or not? |
A31952 | We all naturally dote upon works, and say, as the young man in the Gospel, that came to Christ, What shall I do that I may inherit eternall life? |
A31952 | We know, we are confident, saith he of himself, and other Believers; and what follows? |
A31952 | What doth the Lord require herein on our part? |
A31952 | What form is he of( said he) What sawest ● hou? |
A31952 | What is this faith you speak of, and how may it be discerned from a Temporary faith? |
A31952 | What light? |
A31952 | What seest thou O my soul in thy self? |
A31952 | What shall we do, that we might work the Works of God? |
A31952 | Where is boasting then? |
A31952 | Whose image dost thou beare, Christ''s or Satans? |
A31952 | Wouldest thou then know, whether thy Repentance be Repentance unto Life, or no? |
A31952 | affected darknesse or afflicting darknesse? |
A31952 | and did minister unto thee? |
A31952 | and how may I discern, whether I have it or no? |
A31952 | and shall we not receive evill? |
A31952 | and where is the place thereof, seeing it is hid from the eyes ● f the most, and kept close from many of Gods Iewels? |
A31952 | and whether thou sufferest according to the will of Christ? |
A31952 | how much better is thy Love, then Wine? |
A31952 | if nothing but darknesse? |
A31952 | intimates How can ye believe( saith he) which seek honour one of a another? |
A31952 | of works? |
A31952 | or a stranger? |
A31952 | or athirst? |
A31952 | or in prison? |
A31952 | or naked, and cloathed thee? |
A31952 | or naked? |
A31952 | or sick? |
A31952 | or when may a man be said to suffer as a Christian? |
A31952 | so do thou ask thy soul, What form art thou of, O my soul? |
A31952 | viz, that I have Union with Christ, how shall I be ascertained of this? |
A31952 | what darknesse is it? |
A31952 | what darknesse? |
A31952 | what may I do to increase my assurance, and better my evidence? |
A31952 | whether it be such as truly demonstrates the holy Spirits saving habitation in thy soul, and the truth of thy faith, yea, or nay? |
A31952 | whether thou sufferest for the will of Christ? |
A52055 | 14. hath this saying, An Epis ● opatus inter ordines Ecclesiastic ● s ponendus sit, inter Theologos& Canonistas non convenit? |
A52055 | And are not the French, Scottish, and Belgick Churches worthy to be counted Christian Congregations? |
A52055 | And besides it is said, that Titus was Ordained the first Bishop,& c. And who was the second? |
A52055 | And how will it be proved that this Angel if he had a superiority, had any more then a superiority of Order, or of Gifts and Parts? |
A52055 | And if not; How comes it to bee subscribed, the first to Timothy, which hath relation to a second? |
A52055 | And is it not, as it is novv asserted, become an Idoll, and like the Brazen Serpent to be ground to povvder? |
A52055 | And is it so, doth not this Ius divinum argue a Necessitie, but only a Iustifiablenesse of this calling? |
A52055 | And what shall we think of England, when it was an Heptarchy? |
A52055 | And why not then the seven Angels in those Epistles? |
A52055 | And why then should one Presbyter be over another? |
A52055 | Are not Anicetus, Pius, Hyginus, Telesphorus, Sixtus, whom the Papists call Bishops, and the Popes predecessors, termed by Eusebius Presbyters? |
A52055 | Are the reformed Churches of France, Scotland, Netherlands, of that Judgement? |
A52055 | As for the names, are not the same names given unto both in Sacred Writ? |
A52055 | But have our Bishops indeed beene so carefull, painfull, conscionable, in managing their Charges? |
A52055 | But if we should now demand of them, what they meane by the Church of England? |
A52055 | But novv since Episcopacy comes to be challenged as a Divine Ordinance, hovv shall vve be responsible to those Texts? |

A52055 | Doth not Irenaeus use the name of Bishops and Presbyters 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, in a promiscuous sense? |
A52055 | First, if he ask what are the bounds of this Church? |
A52055 | Here wee demand, whether Paul when hee writ the first Epistle to Timothy, was assured he should live to write a second, which was written long after? |
A52055 | If what Baptism? |

A52055 | If what meanes of Salvation? |
A52055 | If what ● u ● harist? |
A52055 | In the deposing of this King vvho more forvvard, then the Bishop of Hereford? |
A52055 | In which Epistle is it said that this Angel had sole power of Ordination and Jurisdiction? |
A52055 | Is it to edifie the Church by Word and Sacrament? |
A52055 | Misliked Persons? |
A52055 | Obey them that have the Rule over you? |
A52055 | Or if the Bounds of a Kingdome must constitute the Limits and Bounds of a Church, why are not ● ngland, Scotland, and Ireland, all one Church? |
A52055 | Should a Bishop give a Laike a Licence to preach, or to ordain, doth that Licence make him a Minister, or a Bishop? |
A52055 | Sure all will say, no: why? |

A52055 | The intolerable pride, extortion, bribery, luxury of Wolsey Archbishop of York who can be ignorant of? |
A52055 | Thinks any, that this is my opinion, and not the opinion of the Scripture, that a Bishop and an Elder is the same? |
A52055 | Thirdly, he saith this Government hath continued without any interruption: What doth he meane, at Rome? |
A52055 | Though this Remonstrant braves it in his multiplied Queries What are the bounds of this Church? |
A52055 | Was there ever such a second Bishop? |
A52055 | We read in Scripture, of the Churches of Iudea, and the Churches of Galatia: and why not the Churches of England? |
A52055 | We would gladly know, whether these were not, as it were, Lay- Eelders? |
A52055 | What? |
A52055 | Where it is said, that this Angel was a superior degree or order of Ministery above Presbyters? |
A52055 | Whether Episcopacie be not made a place of Dignity, rather then Duty, and desired onely for the great revenues of the place? |
A52055 | Whether that assertion, No Bishop, No King; and no Ceremonie, no Bishop; be not very prejudiciall to Kingly Authority? |
A52055 | Whether the advancing of Episcopacie into Ius Divinum, doth not make it a thing simply unlavvfull to submit to that Government? |
A52055 | Whether the great Apostasie of the Church of Rome hath not been, in swerving from the Discipline of Christ, as well as from the doctrine? |
A52055 | Whether there be any difference in the point of Episcopacy betweene Ius Divinum and Ius Apostolicum? |
A52055 | Why should the free liberty of using or not using a Liturgy, breed more confusion then the free liberty of reading or not reading Homilies? |
A52055 | Why? |
A52055 | Will our Bishops indeed stand to this? |
A52055 | and are there none bu Zealous, Religious Prelates in the Kingdom? |
A52055 | and do not our Bishops challenge power to proceed Ex Officio, and make Elders their own Accusers? |
A52055 | and do not our Bishops challenge power to reject and eject the most sound and Orthodox of our Ministers, for refusing the use of a Ceremony? |
A52055 | and do not our Bishops challenge that power? |
A52055 | and onely they? |
A52055 | and who knowes not that amongst these this Government hath met not onely with verbal but reall contradiction? |
A52055 | and why not offending persons? |
A52055 | are there none upon whom the guilt of that may meritoriously be charged, which others have convincingly and meritoriously opposed? |
A52055 | are there not some that have spent their spirits in the opposition of Christ, as others have in the opposition of Antichrist? |

A52055 | must this be of necessity to Salvation? |
A52055 | must this th ● n be an Article of our Creed, the corner stone of our Religion? |
A52055 | nor is the want of it a want of any thing of Essence, but onely of perfection? |

A31893 | Why do people rush upon Sacraments without preparation, rush upon Sermons, rush upon Prayer, rush upon holy Duties? |
A31893 | Wo unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the Lord, and their works are in the dark, and they say who seeth us, and who knoweth us? |
A31893 | You must consider what interest you have in Christ crucified? |
A31893 | You must meditate in what relation you stand towards God, whether you stand in a Covenant- relation to God or no? |
A31893 | You must meditate of the Life of Christ, and examine, whether thy life be answerable to his life? |
A31893 | You must meditate of your spiritual wants and necessities; what grace dost thou want that thou maist get supplied? |

A46373 | 9. and afterward at Antioch, Act, 13? |
A46373 | Adde further, that Ministers are called Gods Mouth, and how shall a man take upon him to be Gods mouth who is not sent from God? |
A46373 | After this he puts this Question, Anne cessante ordinaria vocatione? |
A46373 | And although the Apostle out of the sense of the weightiness of it, cried out, Who is sufficient for these things? |
A46373 | And are not you preparing your selves and others to help on this slaughter? |
A46373 | And do the Apostles live for ever? |
A46373 | And how shall they preach except they be sent? |
A46373 | And if our Ministry be Antichristian, how is their conversion Christian? |
A46373 | And if so, Then we ask further what is meant by the Elders? |
A46373 | And if there be a power by Scripture in the people to Ordain Ministers, why was Titus sent to Creete to Ordain Elders? |
A46373 | And may not any man that is gifted preach, though he be not Ordained? |
A46373 | And may therefore all exercise regall jurisdiction amongst men? |
A46373 | And they say, just as Corah and his Company, You take too much upon you, yee sons of Levi ▪ Are not all the people of God holy? |

A46373 | But how can this be, when the Apostle Paul himself tels us, that he was an Apostle, not of men, neither by men, but by Iesus Christ immediatly? |
A46373 | But how long was it that the Church of Christ was governed by the common Councel of Presbyters without a Bishop set over them? |
A46373 | But how was Paul sure that he should live to write a second? |
A46373 | But how will it be proved ▪ may some say, That these Chorepiscopi were onely Presbyters and not Bishops? |
A46373 | But if a Master of a Family may instruct his own Family, why may he not preach in the publique Congregation? |
A46373 | But if these were two of the seventy Elders, why doth Ioshua desire Moses to forbid them? |
A46373 | But what then is the meaning of Moses prayer, Would God that all the Lords People were Prophets, and that the Lord would put his Spirit upon them? |
A46373 | But why did not they go unto the Tabernacle as the rest did? |
A46373 | But why then do you your selves suffer men whom you call Probationers and Expectants for the Ministry, to preach without Ordination? |
A46373 | But would you then have every man bound to keep constantly to the Minister under whom he lives? |
A46373 | By what Authority do you these things? |
A46373 | Christ makes answer by demanding another question, The Baptisme of Iohn, was it from heaven or of men? |
A46373 | Could they answer as Christ? |
A46373 | Do not most of your Arguments symbolize with the Romanists as if they were arrows shot out of their quiver? |
A46373 | Do you cry out Antichrist, Antichrist, and yet crucifie Christ again in his members? |
A46373 | Do you not hereby wound all the Reformed Churches, darkning the beauty, and obstructing the progresse of Reformation? |
A46373 | Doth God do thus to those that run and are not sent? |
A46373 | Doth not this opinion greatly endanger the souls of others? |
A46373 | Enviest thou, for my sake? |
A46373 | Every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head? |
A46373 | For what are we the better that there is a Ministery by Divine institution, if our Ministry be of man, and not of God? |
A46373 | For what juncture of r ● ● son would be in this? |
A46373 | Had we that same ingenuity we should return the same answer in the sense of our spirituall disability; How can we except some man guide us? |
A46373 | Hast thou considered their work of faith, labour of love, patience of hope? |
A46373 | Hath not the Lord greatly testified from Heaven against this Tenent in his spirituall Judgements upon many the great promoters of it? |
A46373 | Have not they preached and pressed to the conscience the practical points of Christianity? |
A46373 | How can glory be given to God in the Church throughout all ages, if there should be an age in which the Church should be utterly lost? |
A46373 | How can the Sacrament be continued in the Church till Christ come, if there were so many hundred years in which there was no true Ministery? |
A46373 | How harsh and unpleasant is such an expression? |
A46373 | How is it that ye are not afraid to speak evil of the servants of the Lord, set up by his Spirit for the defence of the Gospel? |
A46373 | How little hath been the Progresse of the Protestant Religion ever since? |
A46373 | How may we distinguish between an immediate Call from God, and the imposture of men that say they are so called when they are not? |
A46373 | How may we distinguish between an immediate Call from God; and the imposture of fanatick men that say they are so called, and are not? |
A46373 | How shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? |
A46373 | How shall they hear without a preacher? |
A46373 | How shall they preach except they be sent? |
A46373 | I am against them saith the Lord: a fearfull commination; If God be against them who shall be with them? |
A46373 | If a Minister made by a Bishop be a lawfull Minister, why then did you in your late covenant abjure Episcopacy with all its dependencies? |
A46373 | If all were the eye, where were the hands and feet? |
A46373 | If any demand, how shall we know when Christ spake to them as Apostles? |
A46373 | If it alwaies remained firm, what need a new Ordination? |
A46373 | If thou hast not, why wilt thou speak evil of things and persons thou knowst not? |
A46373 | If your principles about an universall liberty be true, why are you so untrue to your own principles? |
A46373 | In brief, shall an exact scrutiny passe upon such as are to feed the bodies of poor men, and not upon such as feed the souls? |
A46373 | In the same Epistle he saith,( a) Reverence the Bishop as ye ● do Christ, at the holy Apostles have commanded; But where is this commanded? |
A46373 | In times of former trouble, How did Professors live sincerely, love fervently, pray, and fast, and mourn together? |
A46373 | Is Sa ● ● necessary? |
A46373 | Is any sick among you? |
A46373 | Is it not meant the Church of Hierusalem, to which place they are said to come? |
A46373 | Is it not the great work of Antichrist to destroy our Ministers, to smite the Shepherd that the Flock may be scattered? |
A46373 | Is not this opinion the sad abuse of the great liberty now enjoyed? |
A46373 | Is not this to offer manifest violence to the Scriptures? |
A46373 | Is not this to partake of Antichrists sin? |
A46373 | Man, who made me a Iudge or divider over you? |
A46373 | May all be Magistrates? |
A46373 | May not private men preach as well as they? |
A46373 | Might not the people say, What need Paul leave Titus to do that which we can do our selves? |
A46373 | Now is there not a reall distinction( as well as nominall) betwixt the Flock and Pastor, the Sheep and the Shepherd? |
A46373 | Now then we demand, If the people have no Office- power belonging to them, how can they by Election make an Officer? |
A46373 | Now to perform any authoritative act without authority, what is it other then to usurp authority? |
A46373 | Now we demand, who were these Elders? |
A46373 | Now why are all these qualifications required? |
A46373 | Now with whom did Paul spend his three years? |
A46373 | Of what Church? |
A46373 | Or why may not a Justice of Peace send Warrants out of his own County? |
A46373 | Or why might not Vzziah as well offer Incense in the Temple as pray in his own Family? |
A46373 | Otherwise to what purpose are they inhibited? |
A46373 | Secondly, All are made Priests unto God, but are all made Prophets? |
A46373 | Shall Souldiers have no pay because when they are lawfully called forth they offer themselves freely to serve the publike? |
A46373 | Shew us your warrant out of the Word? |
A46373 | THat when Hierome saith, Quid facit Episcopus quod non facit Presbyter except ● Ordinatione? |
A46373 | Tell us by what authority doest thou these things, or who gave thee this authority? |
A46373 | The Apostle doth not say, How shall they preach except they be gifted( though this be true) but how shall they preach except they be sent? |
A46373 | The Apostle useth a four- fold gradation, How shall they call upon him in whom they have not believed? |
A46373 | The Saints are to be united( and what tears are sufficient to lament our present Divisions?) |
A46373 | These holy Ministers were the precious members of Christ, and will you make them as much as is in you the members of an harlot? |
A46373 | They are called Teachers, and doth not the holy Ghost evidently distinguish betwixt them that do instruct and those that are instructed? |
A46373 | This is confuted by the next words in the Text, How shall they preach except they be sent? |
A46373 | This is in it self a truth of clearest evidence: What needs a peculiar Officer to be set apart to a common work? |
A46373 | This promise can not be confined to the persons of Apostles; for where are the Prophets and Evangelists? |
A46373 | To what purpose did Paul and Barnabas go from place to place to ordain Elders? |
A46373 | To what purpose then is Imposition of hands used, if the extraordinary gifts of the holy Ghost be not conveighed thereby? |
A46373 | Was Valentinus Gentilis therefore a friend and Martyr to God the Father, because he died as an enemy to God the Son? |
A46373 | Was it not the peculiar priviledge of the Apostles, Evangelists,& c. to have their Commission extended to all Churches? |
A46373 | We demand what is meant by the Church? |
A46373 | We demand, by whom shall these be baptized? |
A46373 | We demand, who was the Bishop of Ephesus that Paul sent for? |
A46373 | What are we the better that there is a Ministry from Christ, if our Ministry be from Antichrist? |
A46373 | What is meant by the word Office? |
A46373 | What is meant by the word Presbytery? |
A46373 | What part hath the Ruling Elder in Ordination? |
A46373 | Where is the necessity laid upon them( as the Apostle speaks of himself) that they preach the Gospel? |
A46373 | Whether a company of Believers associated together may ordain without Ministers? |
A46373 | Whether are we to expect any immediate Call in these daies? |
A46373 | Whether may one Preaching Presbyter lay on hands without the assistance of other Ministers? |
A46373 | Whether the Call of the first Reformers of Religion from the Errours of Popery, was an immediate Call or no? |
A46373 | Whether this Presbytery was a Presbytery of Bishops, or of single Presbyters? |
A46373 | Whether this Presbytery were Congregational or Classical? |
A46373 | Who art thou that givest thy mouth to evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit? |
A46373 | Who planteth a Vineyard and doth not eat thereof? |
A46373 | Who then is Paul, and who Apollo, but Ministers by whom ye believe? |
A46373 | Why are your professed principles so uneven, and you so contradictory to your own principles? |
A46373 | Why did they not spare their journey, and send to the people to make their own Ministers by Election? |
A46373 | Why should you strengthen the hands of sinners? |
A46373 | Why then do they not celebrate them? |
A46373 | Why was Titus left in Crete to appoint Elders in every City? |
A46373 | Will any sober Christian believe that these were members of the Roman Harlot? |
A46373 | Would not all these injunctions about such an Office be superfluous, if such an Office were not by Divine Institution? |
A46373 | and after many arguments, why doth the Apostle make that appeal? |
A46373 | and also when he was an Apostle( as Calvin saith) long before this time? |
A46373 | and hath not the Lord set a visible seal to their Ministry in the souls of thousands? |
A46373 | and herein do not you gratifie the common Adversary, and strengthen their hands? |
A46373 | and instead of upholding of Episcopacy is not this sufficient to render it odious and contemptible to all sober and Godly and Moderate Christians? |
A46373 | and may not this rise from the spirit of delusion which worketh strongly in the Children of disobedience? |
A46373 | and when to them as Christians? |
A46373 | and why did Paul leave Titus in Crete to ordain Elders in every City? |
A46373 | and why must he be so carefull to see them first fit, in case his laying on of hands would fit them? |
A46373 | if they finde not acceptance with God, all that approbati ● n and applause which they finde from men, what will it profit? |
A46373 | nisi quia Episcopi& Presbyteri unae Ordinatio est? |
A46373 | or was there ever a second? |
A46373 | was not that extraordinary? |
A46373 | were these also Bishops of Hierusalem? |
A46373 | when to them as Ministers? |
A46373 | where our Saviour Christ refuseth to meddle with dividing Inheritances, because he was no Judge; Man, who made me a Iudge? |
A46373 | who ● nows not it would not? |
A46373 | why did the Apostles visit the Churches they had planted, to Ordain Elders in every Church? |
A46373 | why then may they not preach? |
A46373 | will this answer consist with our Brethrens judgment? |
A49258 | 11 34. Who hath known the mind of the Lord? |
A49258 | A second Queee is this, Whether may one that is an elect man, fall away from his election, and come to be a damned man, or no? |
A49258 | An elect vessel? |
A49258 | And Christ said unto them, when I sent you without purse, and without scripe, and shooes, lacked you any thing? |
A49258 | And O what c ● mfort is this? |
A49258 | And are not the gifts and calling of God without repentance? |
A49258 | And being asked, why? |
A49258 | And here then, beloved, doth this word fall upon any man before God this day? |
A49258 | And how was it? |
A49258 | And if any are apt to be deceived about this matter, have not you great cause to be diligent, lest you are deceived also? |
A49258 | And if so, what is the reason that Calling in my Text is put before Election? |
A49258 | And then Thirdly, How may he come to get the assurance of his effectual calling? |
A49258 | And was this only a fit of desertion, or was it a continued act? |
A49258 | And wha ●''s ● he end of all this? |
A49258 | And what course doth he take? |
A49258 | And what was the effect of hearing John preach? |
A49258 | And what wil follow? |
A49258 | And what''s the reason? |
A49258 | And what''s the reason? |
A49258 | And where can there be a better pattern for you to resemble, or a better Coppy for you to write by? |
A49258 | And who are they? |
A49258 | And who were they that should do so? |
A49258 | And why was this? |
A49258 | Are not there pardoning mercies, where condemnation is deserved? |
A49258 | Are you effectually called? |
A49258 | As namely, First, whether this election be universal, or no? |
A49258 | As often in Scripture, Circumcision put for Circumcised; and so here; Election put for elected, The elected have obtained it: what did they obtaine? |
A49258 | Be you diligent( saith the Apostle) for what? |
A49258 | Beloved, look over the world, how industrious will your companions be to draw you to sin, to draw you to the Alehouse, to draw you to profanenesse? |
A49258 | Beloved, what''s the reason you do not keep assurance? |
A49258 | But now, how can it be said, We must make our calling and election sure? |
A49258 | But then they object, how can this be? |
A49258 | But upon what uncertainties do they venture the salvation of their precious and immortal souls? |
A49258 | But what is this ● o the denying of assurance, that m ● n can not be assured of their Election? |
A49258 | But what''s the limitation? |
A49258 | But you will say, was this common? |
A49258 | Call to minde ancient dayes, did not God shew thee his face? |
A49258 | Didst thou gain thy assurance in dayes past by humbling thy soul often before God? |
A49258 | Didst thou gain thy comforts in dayes past by walking closely with thy God? |
A49258 | Do the comforts you pretend to have, and the assurance you pretend to enjoy, make you more to pursue holinesse? |
A49258 | Dost thou belong to Gods Election? |
A49258 | Doth not the Foundation of God stand sure as the Apostle saith? |
A49258 | Doth this lift up Paul? |
A49258 | Ephraim shall say, what have I any more to do with Idols? |
A49258 | First, Whether may a wicked man, a man as yet not called, be able to resist and keep off his own cal? |
A49258 | First, when, or at what time doth God give to his people most and strongest assurance of their effectuall calling? |
A49258 | First, whether election be universal, or no? |
A49258 | Fourthly, It may be they are sorrowful, but how is it? |
A49258 | Give diligence: In what? |
A49258 | Give diligence: to what? |
A49258 | God gave them up to strong delusions, to believe lies, that all might be damned, that believe not the truth? |
A49258 | God make such a world of men as he hath done, and save but a few of these? |
A49258 | Had not you therefore need of comfort, because you are exposed to more temptations from the Devil? |
A49258 | Hast thou fallen from thy God, and never thinkest of a returning? |
A49258 | Hast thou left a course of strictnesse, and fallen into a course of prophanesse and loosnesse? |
A49258 | Hath not God ch ● sed the poor of this world to be rich in faith? |
A49258 | Have not I chosen twelve, and one of them is a Devil? |
A49258 | Have not you therefore need of diligence, seeing you have lost so much in so little time, which by all your diligence you wil never fully recover? |
A49258 | Have you indignation against your past persecution, and evils? |
A49258 | He hath given thee a seale in thy own brest, that heaven shall make amends for all; and wilt thou be angry? |
A49258 | Here is his assurance: what then? |
A49258 | Here was a people, that assen bl ● d together at the Ordinances of God; but what was their end? |
A49258 | How can a man be sure of that which was done in Gods councel before we had a being? |
A49258 | How can you make out upon Scripture- grounds, that you shall goe to heaven? |
A49258 | How long, ye simple ones, will you lov ● simplicity,& c? |
A49258 | How should this be known? |
A49258 | How then must we make our Election sure, when all the Decrees of God stand sure? |
A49258 | I c ● me not, s ● ith Christ, to call the righteous,& c. Mark, who are they? |
A49258 | I came not to call the righteous; but whom? |
A49258 | If God will do it by a Chapter read, when not by a Sermon preached, who can resist God? |
A49258 | If from stones God can raise up children unto Abraham, why can not God do it by the Word also? |
A49258 | If ye love them that love you, what reward have you? |
A49258 | If you lend a man money, wil you thank and reward him to pay you your own? |
A49258 | In case your hearing be a selfish hearing: As now, many men may hear the word with delight: why? |
A49258 | In the discussion of this Doctrine, I begin with the first, What election is? |
A49258 | Is it so then that Assurance is attainable in this life? |
A49258 | Is it so, that in all matters of soul concernment we should put forth a great deal of diligence? |
A49258 | Is not the mercy of God more then sin in the creature? |
A49258 | Is not there free grace where there is guilt? |
A49258 | Is that blame- worthy, to cry up Christ? |
A49258 | It is said of Heman, 14, 15, 16. verses Lord, why hast thou cas ● ● ff my soule? |
A49258 | It is spoken there of the man that was healed by Jesus Christ; the blind Son, that had his eyes opened by Jesus Christ: What say his Parents? |
A49258 | It''s said there, that the Spirit of the Lord was upon Christ, what to do? |
A49258 | John came to you in the way of righteousnesse, and y ● ● believed him not;( that is, they were not called by his Ministry) what then? |
A49258 | Labour to strengthen your comforts, and reason thus, Why should I not beleeve in Christ? |
A49258 | Lastly, Why is Calling here set before Election, when in order of time Election is before Calling? |
A49258 | Let no man say, I will ascend up to heaven to fetch Christ thence, but what saith the word? |
A49258 | Lord, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon me; what then? |
A49258 | Many shall strive to enter, but shal not be able, Luke 13 Had not you therefore need to take heed? |
A49258 | Mark how indefatigable they would be; they would take so great a journey to damn a poor soul? |
A49258 | Nigh, what to do? |
A49258 | Now for what are you called? |
A49258 | Now is it true, that in all matters of soul Concernment, you must put forth a great deal of diligence? |
A49258 | Now mark; Whether of these twain will the father accept? |
A49258 | Now think upon this in your practice, and consider, What way did I gain my comforts in yeares past? |
A49258 | Now upon what ground doth the Apostle presse this compassion? |
A49258 | Now were you sensible of this misery? |
A49258 | Now what could be more vile then these? |
A49258 | Now what is their censure? |
A49258 | Now what shall a man doe to come to God in full assurance? |
A49258 | Now what will God do with a soul thus tossed with a Temptation? |
A49258 | Now what''s the reason of all this, that God should thus blast their callings and their comforts to them? |
A49258 | Now when men are fighting for their lives, what care, and what labour, and what diligence do they put forth to save themselves? |
A49258 | Now why doth Job complain thus? |
A49258 | Now why was it he did so? |
A49258 | Now( O Beloved) hath ever God done thus with your souls? |
A49258 | Now, O Beloved, to how many do I speak this day, with whom God hath never taken this Method, since they were born into the world? |
A49258 | Now, how could they rejoyce, unlesse they knew this? |
A49258 | Now, if a carnal man had been to answer this, what would he have said? |
A49258 | Now, if you ask, wherein was Herods failing? |
A49258 | Now, is this true, that election is not universal; but that some men are elected, and others reprobated? |
A49258 | Now, say they, if it were not possible for a man elected to fall, and fall finally, to what end is this caution of the Apostle? |
A49258 | Now, when Christ saith, Have I not chosen you twelve? |
A49258 | Now, who are meant here by the children of the kingdome? |
A49258 | Now, you would ask what the meaning of all this is? |
A49258 | O now, run to the ensuring Office: what''s that? |
A49258 | Offer the lame and the blind to the Governour, will he accept of it? |
A49258 | Oh Inhabitants of Lebanon, how gracious wilt thou be when thy pangs come upon thee? |
A49258 | Preaching is the more noble work, and must be highest in our thoughts, yet if God will go out in an unusual way, who can control him? |
A49258 | Secondly, If a man may be assured, then what is the reason many a godly man is not assured of his effectual calling? |
A49258 | Secondly, What temptations doth the Devil suggest, to keep a wicked man from entertaining and embracing the cal of Jesus Christ? |
A49258 | Secondly, they go yet further, There is another poor soul brought home to Jesus Christ, and what saith he? |
A49258 | Secondly, whether a man that is once elected by God to salvation, may come to be damned, yea, or no? |
A49258 | Shall all men be saved? |
A49258 | Shall wicked men put forth both hands to sin, and wilt not thou put a finger to holiness, put a hand to the waies of God? |
A49258 | So that though you are never so diligent, this diligence is not meritorious at all: Why? |
A49258 | The man that is condemned, he hangs down his head; but the man that comes pardoned from the bar, with what a cheerful countenance will that man come? |
A49258 | The three first cases touching wicked men are these: First, Whether a wicked man be able to resist his own call? |
A49258 | There are three Reasons why this should be? |
A49258 | There are three cases more touching godly men: As First, Whether may a man that is effectually called, be any way assured that he is so? |
A49258 | There were some lying Prophetesses that did preach, but what did they doe? |
A49258 | Therefore Fourthly, When, or at what time doth God fill the souls of his people most with the assurance of their effectual calling? |
A49258 | Therefore seeing we are not privy to Gods decree and councel, how can it be said, that we may know and be assured of our Eternal Election? |
A49258 | They will reason themselves into unbeliefe, and say, Lord, why should I beleeve? |
A49258 | Thirdly, Seeing Christians must put forth diligence in making their calling sure; therefore now whereabouts must this diligence of ours be conversant? |
A49258 | Thirdly, Would you restore your wonted comforts? |
A49258 | Thirdly, whether God, in electing a man to life and glory, doth it out of any foresight of faith, or any other grace he sees in man? |
A49258 | Thirdly, whether doth God elect any man to life and salvation upon foresight of his faith or good works? |
A49258 | This therefore is the quere, whether this doctrine of election doth administer any ground for such a cavil as this to be in the minds of men? |
A49258 | Though you have troubles in the world, yet you have joy in me, and peace in me; and therefore why should you be offended? |
A49258 | Thus a wicked man, he may disgorge and vomit up his sins, and leave his sins, but why? |
A49258 | Thy God hath commanded thy strength: What then? |
A49258 | Wanted you any thing? |
A49258 | We desire you, saith the Apostle, every one of you to shew the same diligence: to what? |
A49258 | What a change was here in Moab? |
A49258 | What a change was here? |
A49258 | What are the Characters or discoveries, whereby my soul may be assured that I a ● eff ● ctually called by Jesus Christ? |
A49258 | What benummednesse, and what sluggishnesse of spirit do most men lie under? |
A49258 | What care do men take, and what diligence do they give to make sure their lands, and goods, and worldly estates? |
A49258 | What diligence will an Adulterer use to watch for a Harlot in the twilight, in the evening tide? |
A49258 | What doth David do, when he prayes for assurance? |
A49258 | What evidence can you give of your effectual calling? |
A49258 | What evil have they deserved of you, that you should neglect them so much? |
A49258 | What follows? |
A49258 | What if God do not pierce your heart, as he did those 3000 in the Acts, if he kindly open thy heart like Lidia''s without noise? |
A49258 | What if he come to you in a calm, when he comes to others in a Tempest, if God come to me to you in a more peaceable and peaceable and quiet way? |
A49258 | What pains will a Drunkard take to sit all day and all night at his pots? |
A49258 | What then? |
A49258 | What to doe? |
A49258 | What''s that? |
A49258 | What''s the reason a man was an Adulterer before, and is not so n ● w? |
A49258 | What''s the reason? |
A49258 | What, rejoyce to see them a sad people? |
A49258 | What? |
A49258 | What? |
A49258 | When Christ called a companie of men there to come to him, what excuse have they? |
A49258 | When she had assurance her sins were pardoned, what saith Christ? |
A49258 | Wherefore? |
A49258 | Wherein did he fail? |
A49258 | Whether may a man that is elected fall away, and afterward perish? |
A49258 | Who shal gainsay it? |
A49258 | Why Beloved, have you ever seen this? |
A49258 | Why art thou troubled O my soule, and why art thou cast down within me? |
A49258 | Why gaddest thou so much to change thy way? |
A49258 | Why how much more should you ensure this great and precious Jewel of Effectual Calling, that so much concerns your immortal souls? |
A49258 | Why may I not repent to day? |
A49258 | Why should men so account of them? |
A49258 | Why( Beloved) shall a Usurer in all his wayes be so secure, and so heedful in all his disbursments, that he could say, It is good to be sure? |
A49258 | Why( O Beloved) shal the Divel use diligence to damn thy soul, and wilt thou use none to save it? |
A49258 | Why, how should this condemn that great sluggishnesse and idlenesse of mens spirits, that they do so little in the matters of soul concernments? |
A49258 | Why? |
A49258 | Why? |
A49258 | Wives be subject unto your husbands, what then? |
A49258 | Wot ye not ●, saith Christ, I was about my fathers business? |
A49258 | Wretched man that I am, who shall deliver me from this body of death? |
A49258 | Yet what saith God? |
A49258 | You say we must make it sure, therefore what is the nature of it? |
A49258 | and may not I much more say to you, It is good to be sure of Heaven? |
A49258 | and why hast thou hid thy face from me? |
A49258 | but the Publicans and Harlots believed: what then? |
A49258 | can a man therefore put forth his own strength? |
A49258 | did I gain my comforts by godly sorrow, and by lamenting after God, and by mourning over those abominable failings in my practice? |
A49258 | did he love Paul because a godly man? |
A49258 | did not God bear thee in the palmes of his hands? |
A49258 | did not God give thee many a smile of his countenance, and many a pledge of his love, even by affliction it selfe? |
A49258 | did not God set many a seal upon thy heart, that thy comforts were true, thy evidence clear, and thy ends sincere towards God? |
A49258 | did you ever see that misery that sin brought upon you? |
A49258 | have you seen sin to be exceeding sinful? |
A49258 | may be you look upon sin with a transient and general view but do you look upon sin so as to see more evil in sin then ever you saw before? |
A49258 | or in what Channel must our diligence run, that we might be sure of our effectual calling? |
A49258 | or who hath been his Counsellour? |
A49258 | some are blamed that should say, I am of Paul, and I of Apollo, and I of Christ; Why, are men blamed for saying they are for Christ? |
A49258 | the one being so dismal, the other so beautiful? |
A49258 | to make the Word read a means in his own hands to effect it? |
A49258 | upon 3000 at once, Men and Brethren, what shall we do to be saved? |
A49258 | when Ananias doubted whether Paul was truly call''d or no, and Jesus Christ would convince Ananias that he was truly call''d: what means doth he use? |
A49258 | whether this doctrine will favour this desperate conclusion, yea, or no? |
A49258 | why should I take hold of a promise, that am so unholy and so unmortified a creature? |
A49258 | why should the people forget their sorrows, and forget their pains? |
A61453 | 14 ▪ Here then if we demand, Why the Kingdom of the Son of Man is called An everlasting Kingdome? |
A61453 | 20? |
A61453 | 21? |
A61453 | 27. Who are they that are the People of the Saints of the most High? |
A61453 | 8. are one and the same? |
A61453 | 8. therefore he is none of the Four great Empires mentioned in the Chapter going ● … efore? |
A61453 | According to this Rule, how can Iunius apply the Number of the Beast to the Canon- Law? |
A61453 | According to this ground, what certainty of Interpretation is here to be had? |
A61453 | Again, how can Ptolomaeus Philopater be one of the Ten Kings of the Seleucian line? |
A61453 | All the Question is concerning the Assumption, Whether the Graecian ended as the Third Metal- Kingdom at the destruction of the Seleucian? |
A61453 | All the world did agree together to worship the Beast, and to receive his Mark; and was this no impeachment to the Kingdom of Christ? |
A61453 | And are not the words of Daniel much to the same purpose? |
A61453 | And at this day( saith he) how many are there in the Papacy, that heap upon Kings whatsoever Right or Power they can possible? |
A61453 | And did he not Reign as a Seleucian King? |
A61453 | And doth he not speak of the scattering of the Holy People, and of the continuance of their dispersion to the time of the end? |
A61453 | And doth not Daniel do the same? |
A61453 | And hath not the Bishop of Rome for 1000 years, put himself in the place of Christ, as the Head and Law- giver to the Church of Christ? |
A61453 | And he doth shew the irrationality of that practice: For why( saith he) should men be uncovered? |
A61453 | And how can they receive the Name, but they must receive the Number, seeing it is styled, The Number of the Name? |
A61453 | And how contrary is this to all colour and shew of truth? |
A61453 | And in what times may not the like spirit of pride be in some men, when they are put into place of Rule? |
A61453 | And is there any thing there spoken, to prove the bipartite State of the Fourth Kingdom? |
A61453 | And may not all things be rightly applied to the Romans when they came to have supreme Dominion in the Land of Promise? |
A61453 | And particularly, Shall the Lord Jesus give serious warning to his Church and People? |
A61453 | And shall we then say, That the Four periods of time in Daniel''s Image, is a Scholastical and nice speculation? |
A61453 | And so the great question was to me, how the Name or Universal Headship of the Beast should be 666? |
A61453 | And the Christians under the Emperors of Constantinople, by the Indictions? |
A61453 | And then he concludes, Quis non vidit illas omni aevo suo necessariò contemporare? |
A61453 | And therefore where there is no division into pieces, what need is there of mingling to make an Union? |
A61453 | And though in the dayes of Queen Mary, the Critical Question was, What say you to the Sacrament of the Altar? |
A61453 | And what is the Mark of the Name, but the profession of Subjection to that Power or Headship? |
A61453 | And what is the reason of all this? |
A61453 | And when all this is done, shall we say, That the Four changes of time, in the Image of the Metal- Kingdoms, are but a curious speculation? |
A61453 | And when all this is done, shall we say, That the Jews suffered nothing from the Romans during the times of their Free- state? |
A61453 | And who can tell when these things shall come to be more clearly known to the Consciences of them which have been formerly seduced? |
A61453 | Are they not the Ten Kings, signified by the Ten Horns? |
A61453 | Bu ● … to what Beast shall we resemble( in its right constitution) the Davidical Kingdome it self? |
A61453 | But can there be the like Reason given, why the Antichristian Church is so frequent in the Number 25? |
A61453 | But first of all, how was Iulian a taker away of the daily Sacrifice? |
A61453 | But for my part, I conceive here are two Questions to be answered; Whether that King were rightly and truly a Head of the Church at all? |
A61453 | But here an Objection may be made concerning the present Heresies which are now in the Land, What should be done to the suppression of these? |
A61453 | But here is a hard question to be decided by the way: How can the Beast be said to be the eighth King, and yet one of the seven Heads? |
A61453 | But here it may be Objected, How could Augustus tax Iudea, when it was under the Power of Herod the King? |
A61453 | But how can Antichrist assume such a Name to himself, that is only peculiarly known in the Schools? |
A61453 | But how could those gross Heresies be so called? |
A61453 | But how few of us are sensible of their hard condition? |
A61453 | But how is it proved, That the Kingdom is divided only into Two parts, and that the diverse Kingdoms are only two and no more? |
A61453 | But how is it proved, That the Kingdom was divided into Two parts only, and no more? |
A61453 | But how is this verified in the Fourth Kingdom? |
A61453 | But how shall we do this, if we our selves do not understand what this sin is, and what judgment the Lord will bring upon them for these things? |
A61453 | But if you ask, What certainty there is of this Interpretation? |
A61453 | But in what part of the times of the New Testament, must these things be fulfilled? |
A61453 | But now a little to draw nearer to the Point: When was it that the Whore did begin to ride the Beast, and where shall we set the date of her Dominion? |
A61453 | But now do they prove this from the text? |
A61453 | But our Question is, Whether did the Kingdom of Christ begin as the Fifth Monarchy, as a Mountain that did fill the Earth? |
A61453 | But our question is, concerning the times of the Great Whore; when was it that she did begin to ride the Beast? |
A61453 | But the Question here is, Whether did he enter into the Possession of that Kingdom, yea or no? |
A61453 | But the great Question is in specie, What latter times are here intended? |
A61453 | But the great Question is, Whether it be his mind at all times to e ● … ert and put forth his Power? |
A61453 | But then the great 〈 ◊ 〉 was, 〈 ◊ 〉 what time I should 〈 ◊ 〉 to Number? |
A61453 | But to what end? |
A61453 | But we for our parts may not onely say, Quam multi in Papatu? |
A61453 | But what are the means that the Lord hath sanctified, to the introducing of this glory? |
A61453 | But what of all this? |
A61453 | But what of all this? |
A61453 | But what part of Love is it, to signifie it in that manner, that they can not possibly understand what he meaneth? |
A61453 | But what sin is there in the frequent use of such a Number? |
A61453 | But what warrant have we to proceed in this method? |
A61453 | But who shall assure us, what is certainly meant by each Trumpet? |
A61453 | But you will say, Which are the three Kingdoms that the little Horn did subdue? |
A61453 | By this Arrogancy what else is portended, but that the time of Antichrist is now at hand? |
A61453 | Do not we decypher the years of the Lord in our common way of writing by figures in brief, as well as by words in their full delinearion? |
A61453 | Do they only make the Kingdom of Christ? |
A61453 | Doth he not Number 1290 dayes, the time of the dispersion, from the destruction of Ierusalem? |
A61453 | Doth he not say, Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the 1335 dayes, to the glorious Restauration of that Church and Nation? |
A61453 | FOr the carrying on of our matter, we need not imbark in that great Question, Whether the Roman be the Fourth Metal- Kingdom? |
A61453 | Farther, What is the way of Computing? |
A61453 | First, How doth this distinguish the Monarchies after the Scripture- difference? |
A61453 | First, Who these wise- men were? |
A61453 | For how could it be possible, that a Government to come might be discoverable by a Number, and that Number not extant? |
A61453 | For how doth a State sin, when they use such a particular Number as this? |
A61453 | For how shall a man that hath wisdome, by the Number finde out the Name, if the Number were no way discoverable in those times? |
A61453 | For in it self, what good or what evil is in that Number? |
A61453 | For is it not clear by the Stories, That all doth depend upon the Authority of the Romane See? |
A61453 | For the bounds of his Spiritual Kingdom were much enlarged by their travel ▪ But what is this to the purpose? |
A61453 | For these words are immediately added: If a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care for the Church of God? |
A61453 | For what is Mahometism, but the waster and destroyer of the Christian Faith? |
A61453 | For what is the Name, but the Power and Universal Headship? |
A61453 | For what is the profession of a Roman Catholick? |
A61453 | For what knowledge had the people that lived in the days of Iohn, and in the ages immediately following, of the account by the year of the Lord? |
A61453 | For what man of Truth will call that a Revelation, which is no Revelation at all? |
A61453 | For, Where should Christ be Born, but in Iudea? |
A61453 | For, what shall be the Ten Horns, or the Ten Kings? |
A61453 | For, where doth Daniel in his Exposition make mention of any such bipartite State? |
A61453 | Here I demand, Did not the Lord God Omnipotent Reign before? |
A61453 | Here I demand, How could the Idols speak vanity? |
A61453 | Here I demand, What hath the Evangelist to do with the times of the Romans, being a Government so alien to the affairs of the Church? |
A61453 | Here I demand, What is meant by him that readeth? |
A61453 | Here I demand, Whose Dominion is it that they shall take away? |
A61453 | Here I demand, Why is this Star called 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, his Star? |
A61453 | Here I demand, what is meant by 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, by that Kingdom of God, and Power of Christ? |
A61453 | Here then, when it is said, Thou hast a few Names; shall we understand this to be meant of Grammatical Names? |
A61453 | Here two Questions are to be demanded: The first is, What is meant by the guests that did lie in the high- ways and the hedges? |
A61453 | Here two questions are to be demanded, First, what did he mean when he saith, That time shall be no more? |
A61453 | Here we may demand the reason, why these words are extended to Children and Servants? |
A61453 | How can he make it appear, that this Law hath been in force all the times of that Kingdome? |
A61453 | How can he so effectually bring home the lost Sons of men to Christ, when he himself never had a true feeling of his lost condition? |
A61453 | How can the smoke of their burning ascend for ever and ever, for the superstitious use of the Number 25, the square- root of 666? |
A61453 | How can this be applied to them? |
A61453 | How can this be proved from his words? |
A61453 | How can this be? |
A61453 | How could that be? |
A61453 | How few do mourn for the affliction of Ioseph? |
A61453 | How great a torment would it be for a man to assay to do that thing that were altogether impossible? |
A61453 | How long wilt thou not have mercy on Ierusalem, and the Cities of Iudah, against which thou hast indignation this three score and ten years? |
A61453 | How many in the Papacy? |
A61453 | I demand then, How did he compel them? |
A61453 | I pray was this man a good Head of Gods Church? |
A61453 | If Mahomet be the little Horn, who were the Saints of the most High whom he did wear cut? |
A61453 | If the Bishops were true Ministers, and did rightly ordain, why then did you preach them down as Antichristian? |
A61453 | If the Ten Horns be Ten Seleucian Kings, there will be Eleven Horns in all: and how can Ten Horns be the Character of the Beast? |
A61453 | If the ten Horns be ten Kings, and the little Horn be the tenth, why is it said, That only three of the former were plucked up by the roots? |
A61453 | If there be no performance of this, how can we accuse them of a sin, and we our selves be altogether ignorant what that sin is? |
A61453 | If there be no such Name or Headship, What should be the meaning of the Apostle, when he speaketh of the Incestuous Corinthian? |
A61453 | If therefore the Babylonians, Persians, Graecians, be all the People, how shall we make Four Monarchies of Three People? |
A61453 | If this be so, how doth Mr. Potter give a true Exposition of the Number? |
A61453 | If we take the Name for a Grammatical Name, what certainty can there be, and who can particularly define what the Name is? |
A61453 | In these words, why is God the Father called, The Ancient of days? |
A61453 | In this case then, must they who dissent be compelled to yield, or be censured as Rebels against the Laws of the State? |
A61453 | Is he not such a one that doth believe, receive, and profess the Universal Headship of the Bishop of Rome? |
A61453 | Is it Hebrew, Greek, or Latin? |
A61453 | Is it not clear, by the whole tenor and scope of the text, That he speaketh of the King of the North, or the Seleucian Kingdom? |
A61453 | Is it not directly and diametrally opposite to the Reign of the Beast? |
A61453 | Is it the Dominion of the Fourth Beast, Hornless and harmless? |
A61453 | Is not the New Ierusalem that City, of whom also it is foretold, that the Kings of the earth shall bring their glory to her? |
A61453 | Is the Bride the Lambs Wife altogether destitute of these Ornaments? |
A61453 | Let him now give his Answer, Why the Birth of Christ is recorded by the Evangelist to be in the times of the Oecumenical Tax of the Roman World? |
A61453 | Mr Broughton who affirmeth this to be a Fourth Monarchy, how can he make it good, That the Kingdom of Christ was set up in the times of the Seleucian? |
A61453 | Must the whole Narration of all the things there declared end at Antiochus his death? |
A61453 | Must we finde out a signification for all these? |
A61453 | Now I say, What must be done in this case? |
A61453 | Now for the Names of men, shall we understand Names consisting of Letters and syllables? |
A61453 | Now how is it possible that they could receive the Mark, but they must also receive the Name, sith it is called The Mark of the Name? |
A61453 | Now if a question be made, Why these years should begin from the 13 of Iosiah, who was a reformer of the Church? |
A61453 | Now if any shall ask, What proof, or what evidence I have to hold forth the truth of the thing? |
A61453 | Now if the question be put, How, and wherein were the Nations deceived? |
A61453 | Now if these be Eleven Kings lineally succeeding, why is the Beast called and set forth by the Character of Ten Horns? |
A61453 | Now if you apply this to singulars, How can men rationally be tormented day and night? |
A61453 | Now is not here a plain Antithesis, or Opposition betwixt the Ten Horns and the little Horn that came up after? |
A61453 | Now is not the calling upon the Name of the Lord, the calling upon God himself? |
A61453 | Now is this verified in the Nation of the Jews? |
A61453 | Now let us inquire after the time of the emersion, how the Church came out; and the time of the immersion, how she was brought into this darkness? |
A61453 | Now shall we think the knowledge of these things to be a nice Speculation? |
A61453 | Now take Alexander severally from his Successors, what four Heads, or what four Divisions were there in his Kingdom? |
A61453 | Now that the Church is called, The Temple of God, is clear from that of the Apostle, Know ye not that ye are the Temple of God? |
A61453 | Now then, I leave it to any to judge, Whether here is not the beginning of the Fourth Metal- Kingdom in Daniel''s Image? |
A61453 | Now then, doth not Daniel speak of the same things? |
A61453 | Now then, how doth he apply these Predictions? |
A61453 | Now they that hold the Ten Horns to be so many Kings in the Seleucian line, what Letter or Syllable is in the text to prove such a succession? |
A61453 | Now what is here meant by the Name written? |
A61453 | Now what is the Image of Daniel? |
A61453 | Now what peaceable coming is this, when he shall begin with the extirpation of Three Kings? |
A61453 | Now what saith Mr. Bedel to all this? |
A61453 | Now what was the Great City, which in the days of Iohn reigned over all earthly Kings, but the City of Rome? |
A61453 | Now where may we conceive these things are written, but in the Prophecie of Daniel? |
A61453 | Now whereas Dr Willet maketh the Question, How ten Kings may arise out of one Kingdom at one time? |
A61453 | Now why doth he exhort the Kings and Judges of the Earth to be wise, rather then other men? |
A61453 | Now why is it that Compulsion should be used towards these, rather then the other two kinde of guests? |
A61453 | Now, How can he be said to be the first King of the Graecians, seeing there were many Mighty Kings before him, in, and over that Nation? |
A61453 | Now, if you enquire, which Successor was that One from whom Antiochus Epiphanes did spring; Did he not arise out of the Seleucian Family? |
A61453 | Now, out of which of the Four Successors did he spring? |
A61453 | Now, what Congruity or colour of Reason is there, That the Roman Kingdom should be destroyed for the Blasphemies of Mahomet? |
A61453 | Now, what certainty is in all this? |
A61453 | Now, what is there among that Society of men, which is of more common use and publick view, than the Profession of a Roman Catholick? |
A61453 | Now, what part or parcel of the Graecian Empire did Iulius Caesar bring under the Power of the Romans? |
A61453 | Now, when did thi ● … come to pass? |
A61453 | Now, who can possibly believe this to be true, that readeth the three last Chapters of the Prophecie? |
A61453 | On the other side, for the 1000 years, I would gladly know of them that differ, Where they will seat this period of time? |
A61453 | Only here will lie the weight of the business, Whether the matter is one and the same in both Prophecies? |
A61453 | Or have they been only used as Instruments to the Dissolution of the Fourth Kingdom? |
A61453 | Or, Whether the Opinion of Junius and his followers be received? |
A61453 | Remember you ● … ot when I was with you, I told you these things? |
A61453 | Secondly, For the Circumstance of time, how long shall it be that men must worship the Beast and receive his Mark? |
A61453 | Secondly, For the Persons; who were they that Iason carried over to receive the Mark of the Beast in the Graecian Tyranny? |
A61453 | Secondly, To what Prophets doth he refer us, when he saith, As he hath spoken to his servants the Prophets? |
A61453 | Secondly, What part or parcel of the Nations about the Borders of the Church, did he bring under the Roman Obedience? |
A61453 | Secondly, Why should compulsion be used rather toward them, then to the two former kindes? |
A61453 | Secondly, Why was it Revealed to them by a Star? |
A61453 | Secondly, how can we apply the taking away of the daily Sacrifice to the times of Iulian? |
A61453 | Secondly, what is meant by the book that he must reade? |
A61453 | Shall we imagine, that he will not once mention that which is individually necessary, but altogether stand upon remoter points? |
A61453 | Shall we say, That they are only the People of the Jewes? |
A61453 | That being granted; the second, Whether he were a good one, yea or no? |
A61453 | The Christians in Aegy ● … t and Africa, by the Aera of Dioclesian? |
A61453 | The Question is this: Then said I, O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things? |
A61453 | The first is concerning the Compulsive Power of the Supreme Magistrate in matters of Religion, whether that be Antichristian yea or no? |
A61453 | The great Question is, Where we shall set the Ending of the Graecian Kingdom, as typed by the Third Beast, and the Brass- Metal? |
A61453 | The second is, Whether it be Antichristian, to maintain the future glory and splendor of the Church of Christ upon the Earth? |
A61453 | Therefore of necessity it must be either a Name common, or a Name proper to some State: But by what right may the Name of the Beast be called common? |
A61453 | Therefore they who will have Lateinos to be the Name of the Beast, how do they make this the individuall Character of the Beasts Subjects? |
A61453 | Therefore what did Phocas bestow upon the Roman Church? |
A61453 | Thirdly, Let us come to particulars: what Three Kings were they whom Antiochus did subdue? |
A61453 | This will not agree to the duration of Mahomet; for, what place of Scripture doth once mention such a thing? |
A61453 | To what end were they Revealed, if there be no use of the Revelation at all? |
A61453 | Was not his Original out of the Seleucian stock? |
A61453 | We are not to take the Name Alphabetically; For, to what end should he command men to receive such a Name as this? |
A61453 | We reade when our Saviour was born at Bethleem, that certain wise- men came from the East to Ierusalem, saying, Where is born the King of the Iews? |
A61453 | We yield that there is a division in the Feet and Toes of the Image: but how is it proved, That this is a division into Two parts only, and no more? |
A61453 | Well, be it so, still the Question is, which three of the former ten were they that the little Horn did eradicate? |
A61453 | Well, be it so; but how proveth he this Colledge to have been in all the times of the Beasts Kingdome? |
A61453 | Were not the Bodies, Lives, Goods, Cattel, of the Jews, and all that they had, at the Roman devotion? |
A61453 | Were they not totally destroyed some years before the Coming of Christ in the Flesh, by the means of the Romans? |
A61453 | What Equipage or Correspondence can there be between quid nominis,& quid rei? |
A61453 | What a kind of slaughter would this be? |
A61453 | What doth he mean by this, that the spirit of Antichrist was already in the world? |
A61453 | What else should be the meaning of that expression? |
A61453 | What good will Learning, Civility, Navigation, and other such things do, when the Church of God is under Persecution? |
A61453 | What have Parents and Masters to do with their sanctifying of the Sabbath? |
A61453 | What he would, he hath set up; what he would, he hath plucked down: And when all this is done, is he only a titular Head? |
A61453 | What if this be true in many particulars, as in those aforenamed? |
A61453 | What is meant by the Hail mingled with fire; by the Mountain burning with fire? |
A61453 | What is meant here, by the Beast that is not? |
A61453 | What is the cause of the Difference? |
A61453 | What is this cure, but the renovation of the same Sovereignty in the Popes, which was formerly lost in the Caesars? |
A61453 | What is this wound, but an intercision or cessation of all Roman Majesty in the world, at the rising of the Ten Kings? |
A61453 | What is this, but to make a Fable of the most important and comfortable Promises that be; to neglect the substance, and to catch at a shadow? |
A61453 | What must then be done in such a case as this? |
A61453 | What shall be the little Horn? |
A61453 | What shall we make of the Reign of Christ upon the Earth? |
A61453 | What then? |
A61453 | When a Usurpet is in the place of Government, is this no impeachment to the lawful power? |
A61453 | When a man hath no experience, how can he understand these things that are so largely spoken of in the Epistle to the Romans? |
A61453 | When he speaketh of the Beast with seven Heads and ten Horns, how doth he particularize and individuate the matter? |
A61453 | Wherefore else should they appropriate the Fourth Metal- Kingdom to him only? |
A61453 | Who can tell what a mean this may be of their undeceiving? |
A61453 | Who shall assure us, what is meant by these Types, seeing the Spirit doth not set down his meaning, as he doth in the Vision represented to Elias? |
A61453 | Why are two Empires set forth under one figure? |
A61453 | Why had they any liberty given ▪ them to Afflict the Saints? |
A61453 | Why is it said, That the taxing was when Cyreneus was Governor of Syria, and not rather when Herod was King of the Iews? |
A61453 | Why is the most Tyrannical Prince left out of the Number? |
A61453 | Why should not the Christians that lived in Spain, finde out the Number by the Spanish Aera? |
A61453 | Will any man say That they were only the Saints of the Jewish Church? |
A61453 | You demand, saith he, if this man King Henry were a good Head of Gods Church? |
A61453 | You had your outward Calling from them, a ● … d can they give you that they never had themselves? |
A61453 | You will say then, VVhere shall we set the beginning of the Fourth Kingdom? |
A61453 | You will say then, What is the true meaning of Jacob''s Prophecie? |
A61453 | You will say, What wisdome is here intended? |
A61453 | You will say, Why is he then called, the Head of Gold, as much in sense as the first Babylonian King? |
A61453 | You will then say, What is meant by the Name, and the Number thereof? |
A61453 | and how do you prove the truth of this out of the Stories? |
A61453 | and how doth the Lord speak of such notable events that should befal Da ● … iel''s People in the last and utmost Rere- ward of time? |
A61453 | and is not then the litle Horn the Eleventh in the same succession? |
A61453 | and why should they bow their knee at the Name of Iesus, rather than at the Name of Christ, or at the Name of God the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost? |
A61453 | or were ye baptized in the Name of Paul? |
A61453 | shall we argue, as many do, That the Discovery of Antichrist will not be till the end of the world? |
A61453 | shall we say that it is a Name consisting of Letters and syllables? |
A61453 | the trusting in the Name of the Lord, the trusting upon the Lord himself? |
A61453 | was Paul crucified for you? |
A61453 | why is the hair of his head compared to the pure wooll? |
A61453 | ▪ How shall all these be attributed to the Roman Kingdom, if it End at the Coming of Christ? |
A31961 | & c. Fifthly, How canst thou think on the day of Judgement, on the time when thou must receive thy final sentence, if thou hast not received Christ? |
A31961 | & why so? |
A31961 | ''t is the mercy of God, it is not gone already: Are we in Captivity? |
A31961 | ( that is) invariably, irrevocably, once for all? |
A31961 | ( the question returns) that we may break the domonion of it? |
A31961 | ( whom he hated, though I love you) The Baptism of Iohn, whence was it? |
A31961 | 12, 13, 14. with the 27, 28, and 29. verses, How is Paul''s bonds a furtherance of the Gospel? |
A31961 | 12. Who art thou that art afraid of a man that shall die, or of the Son of man that shall be made as grass, and forgettest the Lord thy maker? |
A31961 | 2 By a figurative speech they are called a cloud,[ hav ● … a cloud of witnesses] why so? |
A31961 | 25. saith Nebuchadnezzar, Did not we cast three men bound, into the midst of the fire? |
A31961 | 3, 4. of any thing rather than of himself; he doth not say, Am I not rightly called Esau? |
A31961 | 5. of which we have often had experience, Your Fathers where are they? |
A31961 | A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity; But where shall we find such a friend? |
A31961 | Alas poor Cain, how many was there then in the world? |
A31961 | Alas, there is but a very little distance betwixt you and your Servants, and yet you expect they should please you; will you not therefore please God? |
A31961 | Am I the keeper of my yoak- fellow, children, servants, souls? |
A31961 | Am I then the Servant of Christ? |
A31961 | And are they not so still? |
A31961 | And did the Church of Laodicea lose the Candlestick, because of lukewarmness? |
A31961 | And hast thou received Christ as a man that was ready to be damned? |
A31961 | And have not we lost our first love to the Gospel, and to the Ordinances? |
A31961 | And how much smart and pain, while the fruit of their own folly is cured? |
A31961 | And in the mean time are ready to stand up and justifie themselves with the boldness of Cain, to say to God, Am I my brothers keeper? |
A31961 | And surely, it is well with them that have God for their portion: Is it not well with them that are happy? |
A31961 | And what can Sin do more than to take away God''s good Name? |
A31961 | And what is a Believer when his God is gone? |
A31961 | Are Pastors, nay the highest Officers that Jesus Christ hath, and doth own in his Church, but Brethren? |
A31961 | Are not the sins of Israel amongst us? |
A31961 | Are there not some of you, I only put the question, that begin to loath the Manna of your souls, and to look back towards Egypt again? |
A31961 | Are these the Professors, that are proud, stubborn, passionate, censorious, self- conceited, as contemptuous, and envious as any others? |
A31961 | Are we in danger of Idols? |
A31961 | Are we not said to concur with him? |
A31961 | Are you not like the Church of Laodicea, that are neither hot nor cold? |
A31961 | As I remember, in the Book of Martyrs the usual argument was, Why can not you worship the Idol? |
A31961 | As if the Apostle should say, do we need letters of commendation? |
A31961 | As one, that was under the frowns of God, in an estate of enmity, receives reconciliation? |
A31961 | As with a Sword in my Bones mine Enemies reproach me: while they say dayly unto me, Where is thy God? |
A31961 | Born of God, the Sons and Daughters of God? |
A31961 | Brethren, I could do very much for the love I bear to you but I dare not sin? |
A31961 | But do you not mistake? |
A31961 | But here it may be objected, Are not the unrighteous gathered by death as well as the righteous? |
A31961 | But here''s a great question to be answered, How dot ● … it appear that it is well with the righteous? |
A31961 | But how shall I know I have attained this confirming grace? |
A31961 | But how? |
A31961 | But it may be objected, Is all from God, and nothing from us? |
A31961 | But now what are the Reasons why God will not leave his people that thus desire to please him? |
A31961 | But now where are our old Elys, to sit watching and trembling for fear of the Ark? |

A31961 | Did the people of Israel, as here in the Text, lose the Ark, because they abhorred the offering of God? |
A31961 | Did you ever buy this truth? |

A31961 | Do but argue thus, You profess to be Believers; and is it not your duty to answer to this profession? |
A31961 | Do not the Books agree, the Book of thy Conscience, and the Book of my Omniscience? |
A31961 | Do we again begin to commend our selves, or need we, as some others, Epistles of commendation to you, or letters of commendation from you? |

A31961 | First, In thy infirmities: Dost thou love holiness when it is compassed about with sorrows, and troubles, and persecutions? |
A31961 | First, The Depositum, or thing laid up, which is a Treasure; and what is this Treasure, but the Gospel of Jesus Christ? |
A31961 | First, What a confounding word is this to all the wicked, that go on desperately in sin, that add drunkenness to thirst? |
A31961 | For the very truth is, we are never able to make out a good Title to any Gospel- truth, untill such time as we can say we have bought it: How? |
A31961 | For then, First, What the better art thou for all his blood shed as yet, if thou wert this day to dye? |
A31961 | For this cause we do not cease to pray for you: What was the thing the Apostle in this his constant Prayer did begg of God for them? |
A31961 | Fourthly, is this pleasing of God a duty of so great importance and benefit? |
A31961 | God is the righteous mans portion; and can God give a greater gift to us, than to give Himself to us? |
A31961 | God will call forth sinners by Name, and say, Stand forth, Hear thy charge, Let me see what thou canst answer to it? |
A31961 | God will not be tyed to his own rule: and, Who knoweth but God will deliver us? |
A31961 | God''s Being? |
A31961 | Guilty or not guilty? |
A31961 | H ● … you not lost your first love? |
A31961 | Hast thou entertained Christ to be the Master of thy words, thoughts, and deeds, whose Government thou livest under, more than under any in the world? |
A31961 | Hast thou not received Christ? |
A31961 | Hast thou received Christ, as if thou hadst received Heaven in him? |
A31961 | Hath God committed any thing to you? |
A31961 | Heaven is not taken but by storm: do you no see men zealous and very active for the Devil, and for their Lusts? |
A31961 | Holiness is a beautiful and glorious thing; It is the Angels glory, and shall we be ashamed of that which makes us like the Angels? |
A31961 | How came you by this belief? |
A31961 | How can we bring them, and build them up, that will not suffer the Foundation to be laid, the seed to be received? |
A31961 | How canst thou look inward into thy defiled heart, and not tremble, when thou hast no more shelter from the wrath of God? |
A31961 | How doth that appear? |
A31961 | How easily, and how frequently do temptations prevail? |
A31961 | How is it that the righteous perish? |
A31961 | How is it written? |
A31961 | How is it, that we that profess to be the Sons and Daughters of God, are lean and lank, not more improved? |
A31961 | How little care, that our conversations should honour the Gospel? |
A31961 | How long in healing? |
A31961 | How loth is a Minister of Christ to see precious souls, like so many jewels, cast over- board into the dead Sea of hell? |

A31961 | How many among us profess with the highest, but have little ground for their faith? |
A31961 | How many are there that sin manfully? |
A31961 | How many of the greatest part of those that we call Christians, in the world, are put like Sampson to grinde among the Philistims? |
A31961 | How many sinners have you about you, and how do you wrong and rob the ungodly of that Ordinance God hath appointed for their conversion and salvation? |
A31961 | How many times hath the Preacher been gladded to see such a one come to him, seemingly with a broken heart, seeming to set himself in the way of life? |
A31961 | How many years have some spent in duty, in hearing, prayer, gracious society, profession of Religion? |
A31961 | How much labour of the Ministry, mercies of God, pains and care of their own? |
A31961 | How often have we pluckt fruit from the forbidden tree? |
A31961 | How unlike are we at home, to what abroad? |
A31961 | How were you brought over to this Belief? |
A31961 | I but now, Why did the Father thus stand by Christ? |
A31961 | I chiefly aim at the Application: Doth sin bring Nations and Persons into external, internal, and eternal straits? |
A31961 | I have a Baptism to be baptized withall, and how am I straitned till it be accomplished? |
A31961 | I have bought the truth, that was my duty; and having bought it, I will never sell it, that is my duty too: Can we give such an account as this? |
A31961 | I opened the termes, What''s meant by faith? |
A31961 | I remember, what he speaks there concerning Amnon, How is it, that thou being the Kings Son, art lean from day to day? |
A31961 | I say buy it? |
A31961 | I, but what must we do that we may so repress it? |
A31961 | If I be a Father, where is my fear? |
A31961 | If I be a Master where is my Honour? |
A31961 | If I be a Saviour, where is your Confidence in me, Submission to my saving- work, Obedience to my healing Precepts? |
A31961 | If I be your Lord and Master, why do not you learn of me as your Master,& c? |
A31961 | If commanded of the Lord, why are you burdened with it? |
A31961 | If so be that it should be put to the Question; Friend, What is your Faith, what Belief are you of? |
A31961 | If the peoples growth in grace and knowledge be matter of joy to a faithful Pastour? |
A31961 | In one word, Earth, Heaven, and God and all shall be laid out to do them good; Is not this a great priviledge? |
A31961 | In the handling of this Question, How we are to judge and conceive of the holiness of places in the times of the Gospel? |
A31961 | Into what a strait did sin bring Sodom and Gomorrah? |
A31961 | Into what a strait did sin bring the old world? |
A31961 | Into what a strait did sin drive Spira? |
A31961 | Is it a Feaver? |
A31961 | Is it not a grief to a parent to see his child put out to a dry Nurse? |
A31961 | Is it not in this, that thou goest with us? |
A31961 | Is it the most important duty of all sincere professors, in the most shaking seasons, to stand stedfast in the Lord? |
A31961 | Is not destruction to the wicked a strange punishment to the workers of iniquity? |
A31961 | Is not the communion of Saints an Article in our Creed? |
A31961 | Is the case changed? |
A31961 | Is this so, ought the Pastors so to love their people? |
A31961 | Is this the difference? |
A31961 | Israel desires Moses to speak to them( and not God) why? |
A31961 | It is a truth that Jesus is the Christ, how came it to be yours? |
A31961 | It might be said, What is this to us? |
