A44538	what''s that which sounds thus in my Ear?
A44538	— Father, thy Will be done, Forsak''st thou, Why thine only Son?
A44521	A temporal Prince will not suffer himself to to be baffled thus, and canst thou imagine that a jealous God will connive at it?
A44521	All other Creatures betimes prosecute the end for which they are created, and wilt thou alone forget the end for which thou camest into the world?
A44521	And have you no ambition to live as long as Angels live?
A44521	And shall so noble a Creature be undone for want of a little care?
A44521	And while God is not in all their thoughts, how should they fear, how should they stand in awe, how should they be restrained from doing ill?
A44521	And will ye refuse so great a Mercy, and a Pearl of that inestimable value?
A44521	Are you so low- spirited that you have no desire to live eternally?
A44521	Art thou afraid of remembring thy Creator, when everlasting Treasures depend upon the choice?
A44521	But doth any wise man therefore judge that Prisons are not for the common good, or that they are needless in a Common- wealth?
A44521	But what do we talk of another life?
A44521	Can God see thee thus refractory, and forbear preparing his Arrows upon the Bow against thee?
A44521	Can the eyes of men make thee afraid, and is the revenging Eye of God no disswasive from thy wickedness?
A44521	Canst thou imagine that a God bent so much upon thy good, would prescribe any thing prejudicial to thy interest?

A44521	Do''st thou know what Salvation means?
A44521	Do''st thou make nothing of his Promises, and Threatnings, and think to go unpunished?
A44521	Doth he take care of thy Soul and Body with all his strength, and shall such a crawling Worm refuse to offer him that which is found and whole?
A44521	Fancy you hear him say, O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn your glory into shame, how long will ye love Vanity and seek after leasing?
A44521	Go and offer it to thy Governour, and see whether he will accept of such weak endeavours?
A44521	Hast thou any spark of Reason left, and dost not thou blush at these doings?
A44521	Hath not that need of nourishment, as well as thy corruptible Flesh?
A44521	Hath thy God deserved so little at thy hand, that thou canst serve him so?
A44521	How can we look upon the Sun, and not behold him by whose order he shines, and warms this Nether- world?
A44521	How can we view the Moon and Stars, and not see him that calls them all by their names?
A44521	How many years have I spent in the world without any serious thoughts of the great mystery of Godliness?
A44521	How should he know them when they have lost the Character of his Sheep, the mark whereby the Flock must be distinguished, which is to hear his Voice?

A44521	I never knew you?
A44521	If thou allowest God to be a greater Prince than thy King, will he sit silent dost thou think while thou tramplest his Authority under thy feet?
A44521	If thou wouldest not cheat thy Body in this manner, what hurt hath thy Soul done thee that thou wilt wrong it thus?
A44521	In death there is no remembrance of thee, and who will give thee thanks in the Grave?
A44521	Is being happy for ever nothing?
A44521	Is it any advantage to him when thou workest in his Vineyard?
A44521	Is it not thy profit he seeks?
A44521	Is it so light a thing that thou needest deliberate, whether thou shalt prepare for it?
A44521	Is it the Mercy that ever was Mankind, and dost not thou think it worth accepting upon any terms?
A44521	Is this the return thou makest him for the thousand Mercies he bestows upon thee?
A44521	It''s true, God is merciful, but art thou a fit Object of Mercy, that despisest the riches of his goodness?
A44521	Mightest not thou as well say, that thou wilt forbear wholesom Food some years, and eat and drink hereafter?
A44521	Must thy Body feed, and thy Soul be starved?
A44521	Nay, art thou so fond of weak services, that thou wouldest expect none from thy Servant but when his strength fails him?
A44521	Need he court his Servant to do his work, who hath Flames enough to force him to it?
A44521	Onely of his Death it may be said as David said of a far greater man: Did the Lad die as a fool dieth?

A44521	Shall thy shallow brain pretend to know better than he who made thy frame, or considers and ponders things in the Ballance of his eternal Wisdom?
A44521	Thy Soul stands in need of the love of God, as much as thy Body doth of meat and drink; That''s her food as much as Bread is of the ignobler part?
A44521	To this, St. Ephrem: Art thou asham''d to be seen by men, and dost thou not blush to venture upon this villany in the sight of God?
A44521	Was it purchased by the Bloud of God, and shalt thou think any thing too dear for it?
A44521	What a contempt dost thou put upon God in valuing that so little which he prizes at the highest rate?
A44521	What insolence, what rudeness is this?
A44521	What man is he that desires life, and loves many days, that he may see good?
A44521	What mighty purchase doth he get by thy remembring of him?
A44521	What should men do who have lost much time, but husband the remainder to the best advantage?
A44521	What time would''st thou set apart for this necessary work?
A44521	What vanity, or what frenzy rather hath possessed thy mind, that thou talkest of being serious hereafter?
A44521	Who redeem''d you?
A44521	Who sanctifies you?
A44521	Who should know it so well what time is fittest for this work as the all- wise God?
A44521	Why Sirs?
A44521	Why should he shew mercy to a person that thinks his mercy a buthen, and his kindness troublesome?
A44521	Why the strict observance of these two Lessons is particularly necessary in the days of our youth?
A44521	Why?
A44521	Wilt thou deal so basely with him who hath acted so generously for thy good?
A44521	Wilt thou give that to God, which Man would scorn, and thy self do''st not care for?
A44521	Wilt thou make Bargains with him, as Pharaoh did with the Children of Israel, and limit him how much he shall take at thy hands?
A44521	You may laugh at these Terrours now, but when they come to pass, what wise man would be under your circumstances?
A44521	Youth( thus pleads the Age) must have its swing; and what should the sprightly Lad do, but follow his Amours and Vanities?
A44521	and if it were no sin, can any thing be more contrary to good manners?
A44521	and shall he after all be scorned and under- valued for his pains?
A44521	is Vengeance asleep, or is his Justice, do''st thou think, sunk into a fatal slumber?
A44521	the age of infirmity, of sickness, or of dotage?
A44521	wilt thou be worse than other Creatures?
A44535	?
A44535	And are you sure Madam, that the peace and satisfaction, you found in that Church was not delusion?
A44535	And are you sure the Men you have lately believed have not deceived you, as you fancy we have done?
A44535	And can you consent to so great a Sacriledge?
A44535	And do you blame Us for not being so impudent as the Church of ROME?
A44535	And how unlike the Worship of the true GOD is that Veneration you express to the Images and Pictures of Saints, and to Relicks?
A44535	And is this the Worship, Madam, which Christ and his Apostles have injoyned the World?
A44535	And pray Madam, wherein have you bettered your self in going over to the Roman Church?
A44535	And when you receive the Sacrament but in one kind, contrary to Christs command, do not you Sin and allow of the Sin of that Church you are in?
A44535	Are not you afraid of doing things, that do so nearly border upon robbing God of his honour and glory?
A44535	Are the words is and is transubstantiated all one?
A44535	Ay, but we believe it to be GOD; why, Madam, doth your belief, that such a thing is God, or Christ, excuse you from Idolatry?
A44535	But suppose the word is in these words, This is my body, must be understood literally, how doth this make for transubstantiation?
A44535	But where shall we find him?
A44535	Can they annull what God would have Established, and continue to the Worlds end?
A44535	Did they see the Christian Religion like to be swallowed up by darkness and Ignorance, and was it not time to rouze the slumbering world?
A44535	Did you change it without reason and without ground?
A44535	Did you want strictness of Life in our Church?
A44535	Did you want that which the Apostles and the Primitive Christians never wanted?
A44535	Do you think, we do not understand the Scriptures, and Fathers, and Antiquity, as well as they?
A44535	Hath the Church of ROME another Gospel to teach, you than we did instruct you in?
A44535	How can Men dispense with an express Law of God?
A44535	How can you answer it to GOD, that you did not improve your reason more?
A44535	How dare you act thus against your Reason and Conscience?
A44535	I am perswaded you did never tast it, nor see it, nor feel it, nor Smell it, and how do you know it?
A44535	If GOD be a GOD jealous of his Glory, how can he like and approve of such doings?
A44535	If that Church be infallible why do not their own Divines agree in Interpretation of Scripture?
A44535	If you say, that you could not judge of Arguments having never been bred a Schollar, I would but ask you how you durst change your Religion then?
A44535	Is it because we will not believe a Purgatory fire, which cleanseth little, but peoples Purses of their money?
A44535	Is it because we will not deceive the People of the Cup in the Blessed Sacrament, which Christ intended as a mighty comfort to them?
A44535	Is it because we will not receive things which the Church of Rome hath since added to the Catholick Faith?
A44535	Is not your disobedience to Christs Command a Sin, or can you imagine that you are more obliged to Obey men than Christ himself?
A44535	Is the Spirit divided?
A44535	Madam, AND are you indeed got into the onely Catholick Church?
A44535	Madam, who so blind as those that will not see?
A44535	Or doth not he exert his power upon all occasions?
A44535	Or is he not alwaies the same?
A44535	These must certainly be the reasons, why we can not now passe with the Church of ROME for members of the Catholick Church?
A44535	View the Stream of the Gospel, and search whether there be any thing like these Doctrines in it?
A44535	What can be our interest in deceiving you?
A44535	What have you your reason for, but to judge what is agreeable to the Word of GOD, and what is not?
A44535	What was it Madam, that you wanted in our Church to carry you to Heaven?
A44535	Who is it that God hath imparted this Honour to?
A44535	Why, Madam, did any of our Ministers deny you absolution, when you could assure them that your Repentance was sincere?
A44535	You confess you dare not live in any one Sin; But how dare you live in this Sin?
A44535	and if you are not able to Weigh the strength of Arguments, how can you be sure that you are in the true Church at this time?
A44535	and what have we done, that we must not be counted a Catholick Church?
A44535	because the Priests of that Church do tell you so?
A44535	can there be any thing more contrary to it than their denying the Cup to the Laity?
A44535	did you ever ask absolution, and were you refused?
A44535	do we not stand up at it to express our readiness to defend it?
A44535	may be you wanted a Voice from heaven to confirm the promise of the Gospel, but have you since heard such a Voice from heaven in the Church of ROME?
A44535	must they never reform when they have done amiss?
A44535	our''s that keeps to the truly antient Catholick Faith, or their''s that hath added things contrary to Scripture and reason and antiquity?
A44535	should you believe a Stone to be GOD, and adore it, might not you justly be charged with Idolatry?
A44535	what if it should not be God, as you have all the demonstration that sense or reason can give you, that it is not changed into another substance?
A44535	what if it should remain as very a Wafer, as it was before consecration?
A44535	what monstrous Idolatry would this be?
A44535	what?
A44535	when the House is on fire, would you have no body awake to alarm the Neighbours to look to themselves?
A44535	who should prescribe the way how God is to be worshipped, but God himself?
A44535	why will you make your reason a Slave to your Priests magisterial Sentences?
A44536	?
A44536	And are you sure Madam, that the peace and satisfaction, you found in that Church was not delusion?
A44536	And are you sure the Men you have lately believed have not deceived you, as you fancy we have done?

A44517	And O Jerusalem, wilt not thou be clean, When shall it once be?
A44517	And dost thou verily believe that this is the way to Eternal Life?
A44517	And is this all that is to be observed upon this occasion?
A44517	And what is to be done with Self- Examination?
A44517	And what must thy Thoughts be, and what frame must thy heart be in when thou comest to the Holy Table of the Lord?
A44517	Behold I am healed at this time from mine Infirmity, and shall not his Praise be continually in my mouth?
A44517	But how should a creature find out the end of that which is infinite?
A44517	But is it possible, dost thou think, for any Man to obey, and live up to these Precepts?
A44517	But is there nothing else to be done by way of preparation for this Blessed Sacrament?
A44517	But what do I talk of desires of a single Heart?
A44517	But what if thou hast not obeyed these Precepts of the Gospel, is there any remedy, or hopes to recover the favour of God?
A44517	But what will this knowledge profit me, if my practice be not sutable, or my Belief strong, and firm, and vigorous?
A44517	Can you reflect upon his Doctrine, and attempt such villanies?
A44517	Can you refuse your Cordial?
A44517	Can you remember how he taught you in the Temple, even to astonishment, and venture on such proceedings?
A44517	Can you think of his miracles, and do so?
A44517	Canst not thou get a livelyhood, except thou art rich and greedy after the glories of the World?
A44517	Consc In what manner must thou ask advice of faithful Ministers of the Gospel?
A44517	Do I believe this and am I afraid of the worlds frowns?
A44517	Do I believe this and am I ashamed of the severities, thou callest me to?
A44517	Do I believe this, and shall not my Soul make thee her highest, and her chiefest good?
A44517	Do ye dispute the thing?
A44517	Do ye question whether ye shall do it or no?
A44517	Doest thou think that howling with them at last will give thee any comfort?
A44517	Hast thou a Soul, that''s in a possibility of being either eternally Happy, or eternally Miserable?
A44517	Hath the Cross of Christ so little power with me?
A44517	How ill art thou rewarded for thy kindness?
A44517	How is Consideration, and Thinking to be managed?
A44517	How is he alter''d?
A44517	How must these Sacraments be used, in order to thy present and everlasting Comfort?
A44517	I am but Dust and Ashes, and will God vouchsafe a Gracious look, to so mean an object?
A44517	I can give no reason why I have offended thee, except it be thy Goodness and Patience; and could fair Weather make me angry?
A44517	IS it not fit, O my Soul thou shouldest pause a little on thy Redeemers death, before thou goest to remember it with the Congregation?
A44517	If they are unreasonable, why shouldst thou lose thy Wits, and thy Salvation for their sakes?
A44517	In that vast Abysse, the head of this great River lies; but who shall dive into it?
A44517	Is it not possible to live in the World, and to keep thy self unspotted from it?
A44517	Is it possible you can demur upon it?
A44517	Is it possible you can stand out?
A44517	Is it possible your Hearts do not turn within you?
A44517	Is it possible, I can be so perfidious as to break with God?
A44517	Is this the Face admired by Angels, and dreaded by Divels?
A44517	Is this the Face that Abraham long''d to behold, and the Patriarchs were ambitious to have a view of?
A44517	Is this the Face that was once the desire of all Nations?
A44517	Is this the Face that was the perfection of Beauty?
A44517	Is this the Face which so many Prophets and Righteous Men have desired to see?
A44517	Is this the effect of my late Vow?
A44517	Is this to stand to the Covenant, I lately made with God?
A44517	Love desires the presence of its delightful object, and can any thing be more present then thou art?
A44517	O God what dost thou see in me?
A44517	O ye besotted Jews, what makes you run so fast to kill the Lord of Life?
A44517	Praise is comely for the Upright; the poor Cripple did so when he was Healed, and have not I far greater reason to do so?
A44517	Reigning?
A44517	Salvation?
A44517	Shall I come before him with Burnt- offerings, with Calves of a year old?
A44517	Shall I refuse to come when thou callest in this still voice?
A44517	Shall it not restrain me from such a sin as this?
A44517	Shall this word fright me away?
A44517	Shouldst not thou Cry?
A44517	Shouldst not thou Think?
A44517	The Lord is my Light and my Salvation, whom shall I fear?
A44517	The Lord is the strength of my Life, of whom shall I be afraid?
A44517	There is a prize put in thy hand; Why shouldst thou slight it, and lament thy contempt for ever?
A44517	There is no dallying in a thing of this consequence; and if other men will poison themselves, why shouldst thou?
A44517	They did not think that Heaven was to be gained at a cheaper rate, and why should I?
A44517	Thou art strangely bountiful, who would not love thee?
A44517	Thou hast promised it, and shall not I hope for it?
A44517	Thou hast said, Ask, and ye shall have, Seek, and ye shall find, Knock, and it shall be open''d to you; Who would not Hope after this?
A44517	Thy Apostles follow''d Thee, why should not I?
A44517	To see thee cast a favourable look on such a monster as I am, Who can forbear falling in love with so much clemency?
A44517	Was ever Goodness like this?
A44517	What Notions must thou entertain about these Sacraments?
A44517	What Precepts are those, thou art bound to obey in order to be saved?
A44517	What apprehensions must thou have of God, and Spiritual things?
A44517	What are the Rules to be observed in humbling the Soul with Fasting?
A44517	What are those means, whereby this Holy Obedience may be attained?
A44517	What can be difficult, where thou art both the guide, and the encourager?
A44517	What could be the reason?
A44517	What do I hear?
A44517	What dost thou mean by diligent hearing and reading of the word of God?
A44517	What haste dost thou make to dye?
A44517	What if thy Soul be capable of obeying, and disobeying God, doth that make it either Happy, or Miserable?
A44517	What is that Creature that thou bowest thus low to?
A44517	What is that mighty Love of God, that challenges such gratitude?
A44517	What is the nature of Prayer, and earnest begging for Grace and assistance of Gods Spirit?
A44517	What must thou then do to be saved?
A44517	What shall I do?
A44517	What shall I say unto thee, O thou great preserver of Men?
A44517	When God makes use of his own Blood to purify thee, O my Soul, Wilt thou wallow still in thy Dung, and Nastiness?
A44517	Where is thy sting?
A44517	Where shall I find out the spring of this mighty stream?
A44517	Where shall I find the beginning of it?
A44517	Wherein doth the Conscientious use of the Holy Sacraments consist?
A44517	Whether must they have fled for refuge, if thou hadst not given thy self a Sacrifice?
A44517	Who can hear this?
A44517	Who can search into the recesses of Eternity?
A44517	Who was ever confounded that trusted in thee?
A44517	Who was ever despised, that in good earnest called upon thee?
A44517	Who was ever forsaken that hoped in thee?
A44517	Why art thou cast down, O my Soul, and why art thou disquieted within me?
A44517	Why art thou obliged to do all this in order to Salvation?
A44517	Why art thou so loth to come to it?
A44517	Why dost not thou set about it?
A44517	Why dost thou act so contrary to it, when every moment thou art in danger of death, and upon thy death, there depends Eternity?
A44517	Why should I be afraid of going astray?
A44517	Why should not I?
A44517	Why should the examples of thy careless neighbors move thee, when thou knowest there are but few that will be saved?
A44517	Why shouldst thou venture with them?
A44517	and wilt thou goe out of the common road of Love, and spread thy Garments over me, and offer me thy friendship?
A44517	neglect the Medicine that must recover you?
A44517	shall a little profit or pleasure tempt me to please the Divel, and wrong my immortal Soul?
A44517	slight the Remedy that must fetch you to life again?
A44517	that should attract thee, and make thee leave the highest Heavens to descend into an Abyss of Misery?
A44517	why should I become behind them?
A44517	why should I have a less esteem for thee than they had?
A44517	ye can not live without him, and what evil spirit doth possess you to kill and murther him?
A47513	''T is said, When your Children ask their Fathers in time to come, saying, What mean you by these Stones?
A47513	3 dly, Does not Charity oblige Guardians to do these things?
A47513	3, and 4. it is thus written, Know ye not that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ, were baptized into his Death?
A47513	And he said, What shall I Cry?
A47513	And how could Christians be Heirs according to the Promise, if their Children have no Right to it, as Abraham''s Children had?
A47513	And if you should constrain your Children to do what you do not your selves; what would it signifie?
A47513	And it shall be when thy Son asketh thee in time to come, saying, What is this?
A47513	And shall Women degenerate into such unnatural Barbarity towards their young, as is not to be met with amongst the most Savage Creatures?
A47513	And she said, who would have said unto Abraham, that Sarah should have given Children Suck?
A47513	And therefore, how careful ought you to be, in so considerable a part of your duty towards your Children?
A47513	And therefore, how much are they to be Condemned, who make no Conscience at all of doing any thing for the benefit of either their Souls or Bodies?
A47513	And will not you, who have the hopes of a glorious Resurrection, be comforted in the absence of your Children?
A47513	And will you still continue to be so cruel to your poor Children, as to draw them along with you to the bottomless Pit?
A47513	And yet do you not advise and entreat them, for their Souls Health and Safety, to come to the Holy Communion?
A47513	Are God''s Mercies and Favours to Mankind impaired, by Christ''s coming into the World?
A47513	Are their Souls so contemptible in your eyes, that you will let them perish for want of Admonition?
A47513	Are you therefore to be enraged and mad with anger against the Worms, or against the Winds?
A47513	But now he is dead, Wherefore should I fast?
A47513	But shall they escape who do such things?
A47513	Can I bring him again?
A47513	Cometh this blessedness upon the Circumcision onely, or upon the uncircumcision also?
A47513	Did Christ think them worth purchasing with his own Blood, and will ye let them lie without fence or wall, or cultivation?
A47513	Do not we our selves confess so much, and do not most Men acknowledge it when they come to dye?
A47513	Do you believe a future Account, and do not ye enquire, whether you discharge your Duty to your Children?
A47513	Do you not desire that their Sins may be blotted out, that they may be washed with the Blood of their Saviour?
A47513	Does not A Sense of Honour oblige Guardians to be careful of their Pupils, and true and faithful to them?
A47513	For, what is there more common, than to see those neglected and slighted, who have been very kind and serviceable?
A47513	Have not Parents received from God freely and undeservedly, all the good things they enjoy, and particularly their Children?
A47513	Have not ye read the Curse God pronounced against Eli for his negligence, and are not ye afraid of the same Judgment?
A47513	How careful was he both of her Soul and Body?
A47513	How confident in his Friends, Neighbours, and Acquaintance?
A47513	How easie would every Man be?
A47513	How far are most Parents from doing this?
A47513	How great Ingratitude is there in this?
A47513	How great a Blessing would it be to the Church, to have many such Persons of her Society?
A47513	How is it, that you will not understand your Interest?
A47513	How many basely betray their truest Friends and greatest Benefactors?
A47513	How many root up those, by whom themselves have been planted?
A47513	How many think it a disparagement, to be so much as thought to be beholden to others, tho''their Obligations be very great?
A47513	How much greater must their Pleasure be, upon whom God hath bestowed Children, when they see them growing in Grace as they grow in Years?
A47513	How much more careful ought you to be, lest the Souls of your Children should be over- run with vicious Qualities?
A47513	How needful therefore is it for Parents to make their Will in good time?
A47513	How safe and secure from hurt and danger?
A47513	How shall the Child learn Sobriety, where the Father is often drunk?
A47513	How was it then reckoned?
A47513	How well did he instruct her?
A47513	How well- pleased?
A47513	How worthy of Praise were the Noble Spartans, who Honoured all Aged Persons very much?
A47513	If by your indulgence they sin, and by your connivence they grow wicked, will not the supreme Judge be avenged on such Officers?
A47513	If there is no regard to Truth and Justice, what a miserable thing must it be to live in Society?
A47513	Interpreters gave to Ptolemaeus Philadelphus, who asked him, what was the greatest negligence?
A47513	Is it not your interest to educate them into the Practice of Virtue, and Goodness, and Self denial?
A47513	Is not this it, which both Scripture and Philosophy teaches?
A47513	Is not this your Glory, that your Children are Christians?
A47513	Is this your Love, to provide for their flesh, and to neglect enriching their better part with religious Principles?
A47513	May not he do with his own, what he thinks good?
A47513	Not in Circumcision, but in uncircumcision?
A47513	Now what a folly is it for Men to consume, to disquiet, and to torment themselves, where it is to no purpose at all to do so?
A47513	Now, what can there be more base and abominable, than such a Temper as this?
A47513	Or can it be imagined, that the Condition of Believers under the Gospel, is worse than the Condition of those who believed under the Law?
A47513	Or how is it possible, the young man should be meek and patient, where the Father is Cholerick, and hath no command of his passion?
A47513	Or is this no part of the Account ye are to give?
A47513	Or must he give an account of his Actions, unto the work of his own Hands?
A47513	Or those eighteen upon whom the Tower of Si ● oe fell, and slew them, think ye that they were sinners above all Men that dwelt in Jerusalem?
A47513	Or who dare say unto him, what dost thou?
A47513	Ought you not to be at as much pains at least for their Souls?
A47513	Ought you not to do what in you lies, to shape and frame them to Virtue and Piety, that they may become amiable and acceptable in the sight of God?
A47513	Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do?
A47513	Shall they, whose Love and Tenderness has been so noted and admired, prove unkind and cruel to the fruit of their own Womb?
A47513	Shall we by our Folly and Impiety give occasion of Offence and Scandal to the Church of Christ, which he hath purchased with his Blood?
A47513	Shall we commit such Villanies, and practice such Abominations, and thereby break our Solemn Vow and Engagement?
A47513	Shall we renounce the Captain of our Salvation, and prove Deserters, who have so lately vowed to renounce the Devil and all his Works?
A47513	Shall you be vexed and disquieted, because a Worm did eat up your pleasant Fruit, or because the stormy Wind did blow away your lovely Flowers?
A47513	Suppose ye that these Galileans were Sinners above all the Galileans, because they suffered such things?
A47513	Then said his Servants unto him, What thing is this that thou hast done?
A47513	They must, as need requires, reprove and chasten their Children, and how?
A47513	They must, as need requires, reprove and chasten their Children: and how?
A47513	To be made pure and clean in Heart and Life; to be made meet for that Holy Place, where no unclean thing can enter?
A47513	To be united by any civil ● yes to those, whose Promises and Ingagements are worse than none at all?
A47513	Was ever any Man saved without Holiness, and do you hope they will be, without this qualification?
A47513	What Villany and Wickedness seem they not likely to commit, who have no Sense of Benefits?
A47513	What a wonderful power may we daily observe in those early impressions which are made on Mens Minds?
A47513	What an excellent Example is David unto you in this matter?
A47513	What shall I render unto thee, O most Gracious God, and most Merciful Father, for all thy Mercies to me, and to all the World?
A47513	What would it mend the matter, if you should give way to your passion and anger never so much in such a case?
A47513	When he was in Circumcision, or in uncircumcision?
A47513	Whence is it that there are so many Prodigals, that so many come to an untimely end?
A47513	Will you be so mad, as to prefer Hell and Death, everlasting Misery and Woe, to Heaven and Everlasting Life, to Blessedness and Glory?
A47513	You love them, but how doth it appear you do, while you let their Souls die?
A47513	You take care that they may live comfortably in this World: Is it not a greater Duty to bestir your selves, that they may enjoy God for ever?
A47513	how far are too many Parents from doing this for their Children?
A47513	or what Profits and Preferments may be expected thereby?
A47513	that so many run into excesses, which destroy both Soul and Body?
A47513	what a sad thing is this?
A44522	And are you sure the Men you have lately believed have not deceived you, as you fancy we have done?
A44522	And are you sure, Madam, that the peace and satisfaction, you found in that Church was not delusion?
A44522	And can you consent to so great a Sacriledge?
A44522	And do but consider, what weakness, what impotency of Reason, and Spirit you betray and discover by such doings?
A44522	And do you blame Us for not being so impudent as the Church of ROME?
A44522	And how unlike the Worship of the true God is that Veneration you express to the Images and Pictures of Saints, and to the Relicts?
A44522	And is not this the Case of abundance of you?
A44522	And is not this threatning a Call to Repentance?
A44522	And is this the Worship, Madam, which Christ and his Apostles have injoyned the World?
A44522	And pray Madam, wherein have you bettered your self in going over to the Roman Church?
A44522	And what have we done, that we must not be counted a Catholick Church?
A44522	And when you receive the Sacrament but in one kind, contrary to Christ''s Command, do not you sin and allow of the Sin of that Church you are in?
A44522	Are not you afraid of doing things, that do so nearly border upon robbing God of his honour and glory?
A44522	Are the words is, and is transubstantiated, all one?
A44522	Are you sure you shall not?
A44522	Ay, but we believe it to be God: Why, Madam, doth your Belief that such a thing is God, or Christ, excuse you from Idolatry?
A44522	But how can you repent of your Passion, if you do not mortifie it?
A44522	But suppose the word is in these words, This is my Body, must be understood literally, how doth this make for Transubstantiation?
A44522	But where shall we find him?
A44522	But will you boast, say you, of having derived your Orders from the Church of Rome, when you believe the Church of Rome to be an idolatrous Church?
A44522	Can there be any thing more contrary to it than their denying the Cup to the Laity?
A44522	Can they annull what God would have Established, and continue to the Worlds end?
A44522	Can you seriously reflect upon this Commination, and be unconcerned?
A44522	Dare you appear before the Son of Man in the last day with such a Disposition of Soul, never yet seriously repented of?
A44522	Did Heathens do so, and shall Christians be strangers to this Practice?
A44522	Did they see the Christian Religion like to be swallow''d up by Darkness and Ignorance, and was it not time to rouze the slumbering World?
A44522	Did you change it without reason and without ground?
A44522	Did you go about mortifying that bitterness of Spirit, like Men in good earnest; how could ye fail of Success?
A44522	Did you want strictness of Life in our Church?
A44522	Do not you express all that''s terrible by Hell- fire?
A44522	Do not you see something in this Glass that''s very like you, and resembles your Temper?
A44522	Do we not stand up at it to express our Readiness to defend it?
A44522	Do you hope for Christ''s Rewards, and will you deprive your selves of them by your willful disobedience?
A44522	Do you own your selves Disciples of the Lord Jesus, and will not you believe what he saith in the Text?
A44522	Do you think we do not understand the Scriptures, and Fathers, and Antiquity, as well as they?
A44522	Doth anger according to Solomon''s Verdict, rest in the bosom of Fools, and do you take your selves to be wise Men for it?
A44522	Doth he assure you, that it renders you obnoxious to Hell- fire; and do not you think, what if I should fall into that Fire in my anger?
A44522	Doth the Church of Rome differ from the Church of England in any other Points?
A44522	From what Church we did immediately receive it?
A44522	HOW doth the Church of England differ from the Church of Rome?
A44522	Hath God told you, that he will not strike you dead in a Fit?
A44522	Hath he peremptorily forbid you all Bitterness and Wrath, and speaking evil one of another, and will not you obey him?
A44522	Hath our great Master threatned it, and do we make light of it?
A44522	Hath the Church of ROME another Gospel to teach you than that we did instruct you in?
A44522	Have you so learned Christ?
A44522	He ask''d hereupon, when we went off from the Church?
A44522	He asked, whether with a true Interpretation or without it?
A44522	He then asked again, what we counted the Rule of Faith?
A44522	He then asked, whether every Man was a true Interpreter of Scripture?
A44522	Here he asked, how we could receive the true Bible from a corrupt Church?
A44522	How can Men dispence with an express Law of God?
A44522	How can you answer it to God, that you did not improve your Reason more?
A44522	How can you conquer it, if you do not strive?
A44522	How can you mortifie it, if you do not conquer it?
A44522	How can you profess sorrow for this Sin, when you fall willfully into the same Sin again?
A44522	How can you strive, if ye do not use the proper means and weapons God hath appointed in the Gospel?
A44522	How dare you act thus against your Reason and Conscience?
A44522	How unlike that plain and simple Worship which the Gospel enjoyns?
A44522	I am perswaded you did never taste it, nor see it, nor feel it, nor smell it, and how do you know it?
A44522	I asked him, what he thought of Extreme Unction?
A44522	I asked him, whether I might not receive a Pearl from a Chimney Sweeper?
A44522	I told him, the Scripture with true Interpretation?
A44522	If God be a God jealous of his Glory, how can he like and approve of such doings?
A44522	If that Church be infallible why do not their own Divines agree in Interpretation of Scripture?
A44522	If the Cup was formerly given to the Laity, why will not they to effect the aforesaid Union, restore it to the Laity?
A44522	If you say, that you could not judge of Arguments having never been bred a Scholar, I would but ask you how you durst change your Religion then?
A44522	Is Hell- fire nothing but painted Flames?
A44522	Is it because we will not believe a Purgatory Fire, which cleanseth little, but Peoples Purses of their Money?
A44522	Is it because we will not believe the Miracle of Transubstantiation against four of our Senses, and Reason, and Scripture to boot?
A44522	Is it because we will not deceive the People of the Cup in the Blessed Sacrament, which Christ intended as a mighty comfort to them?
A44522	Is it because we will not receive things which the Church of Rome hath since added to the Catholick Faith?
A44522	Is not your Disobedience to Christ''s Command a Sin, or can you imagine that you are more obliged to obey Men than Christ himself?
A44522	Is the Spirit divided?
A44522	Is this following his Example, Who when he was reviled, reviled not again?
A44522	Is this the Christian Spirit?
A44522	Is this to Love one another with a pure Heart fervently?
A44522	Is this to be Children in Malice, as you are bound to be by your Profession?
A44522	Is this to be meek as Doves?
A44522	Is this to purifie your Hearts?
A44522	Is this to resist the Devil?
A44522	Is this treading in your Masters steps?
A44522	Madam, AND are you indeed got into the only Catholick Church?
A44522	Madam, who so blind as those that will not see?
A44522	Must they never reform when they have done amiss?
A44522	Or do you take that to be Repentance which is separated from actual Reformation?
A44522	Or doth not he exert his power upon all occasions?
A44522	Or is he not always the same?
A44522	Ours that keeps to the truly antient Catholick Faith, or theirs that hath added things contrary to Scripture, and Reason, and Antiquity?
A44522	Should you believe a Stone to be God, and adore it, might not you justly be charged with Idolatry?
A44522	Suppose our Religion did but begin then, why, must people be always in an Error?
A44522	The Cup of Blessing which we bless, is it not the Communion of the Blood of Christ?
A44522	The Jesuit asked whether, if a Man committed Theft, he may be call''d an Infidel?
A44522	UUhy do not you believe that the Church of Rome, is the only Catholick Church, and the Mistriss of all other Churches?
A44522	UUhy do not you believe, that the Books call''d Apocrypha, are Canonical Scripture?
A44522	What a mercy is it, that God will accept of a sincere Repentance after such Provocations?
A44522	What are the New Articles of Faith the Church of Rome hath added to the Antient Creeds?
A44522	What can be our Interest in deceiving you?
A44522	What have you your Reason for, but to judge what is agreeable to the Word of God, and what is not?
A44522	What if it should not be God, as you have all the Demonstration that Sense or Reason can give you, that it is not changed into another Substance?
A44522	What if it should remain as very a Wafer, as it was before Consecration?
A44522	What monstrous Idolatry would this be?
A44522	What was it Madam, that you wanted in our Church to carry you to Heaven?
A44522	What''s the reason the Church of England doth not receive those new Articles of Faith?
A44522	What?
A44522	When did the Church of Rome add these new Articles?
A44522	When the House is on fire, would you have no body awake to alarm the Neighbours to look to themselves?
A44522	Who is it that God hath imparted this Honour to?
A44522	Why do not you admit of the Sacrifice of the Mass?
A44522	Why do not you allow of Publick Service in Latin, or in a Tongue not understood by the People?
A44522	Why do not you believe a Purgatory?
A44522	Why do not you believe seven Sacraments?
A44522	Why do not you believe the Church of Rome infallible?
A44522	Why do not you believe, that Extreme Unction is a Sacrament necessary to Salvation?
A44522	Why do not you pray to the Uirgin Mary, and the Saints departed, and why do not you worship their Relicks?
A44522	Why do not you think Auricular Confession to a Priest necessary to Salvation?
A44522	Why do not you think it lawful for Laymen to receive the Communion in one kind only?
A44522	Why do you look upon their forbidding Priests to marry, as unlawful?
A44522	Why do you reject the use of Iudulgences, and Dispensations of the treasure of the Church?
A44522	Why may not the Images of God, of Christ, of the Uirgin Mary, and of other Saints be worshipped?
A44522	Why must not Traditions be received with the same Faith, that is due to the written Word of God?
A44522	Why, Madam, did any of our Ministers deny your Absolution, when you could assure them that your Repentance was sincere?
A44522	You confess you dare not live in any one Sin; But how dare you live in this Sin?
A44522	and if you are not able to weigh the strength of Arguments, how can you be sure that you are in the true Church at this time?
A44522	and is not the possibility of falling into it, a sufficient Defence against this inordinate Passion?
A44522	and the Bread which we break, is it not the Communion of the Body of Christ?
A44522	because the Priests of that Church do tell you so?
A44522	did you ever ask Absolution, and were you refused?
A44522	did you want that which the Apostles and the Primitive Christians never wanted?
A44522	is this to know, what manner of Spirit you are of?
A44522	may be you wanted a Voice from heaven to confirm the Promise of the Gospel, but have you since heard such a Voice from heaven in the Church of Rome?
A44522	who should prescribe the way how God is to be worshipped, but God himself?
A39861	Addrest himself to the Twelve Apostles, Demanding of them, whether they would also leave him?
A39861	Ahasuerus asked again, whether there were any Person in the Anti- chamber?
A39861	And GOD calling Adam, saying, Adam, Where art thou?
A39861	And Hazael having asked him why he wept?
A39861	And Jesus saith unto them, Yea, have ye never read, out of the Mouth of Babes and S ● cklings thou hast perfected Pr ● ise?
A39861	And Judah said, what profit is it if we slay our Brother?
A39861	And Saul trembling at this word, cried out, LORD, what wilt thou have me to do?
A39861	And as the Tribune was ready to torment him, S. Paul demanded, Whether''t was lawful to Scourge a Roman?
A39861	And demanding further of him, What they should do to him that the Tempest might cease?
A39861	And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me?
A39861	And he said unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith?
A39861	And how shall they Preach, except they be sent?
A39861	And the LORD said, Who told thee, that thou wast Naked?
A39861	And they worshipped the Dragon, which gave power to the Beast, and they worshiped the Beast saying, who is like to this Beast?
A39861	And we may here very well say with the Fathers, How Miraculous must those Truths be, whereof the Types and Figures only are such great Miracles?
A39861	And when our Saviour came to his Disciples, he found them asleep, and said, Could ye not watch with me one hour?
A39861	And which of you by taking thought, can add to his Stature one Cubit?
A39861	And why beholdest thou the Mote that is in thy Brothers Eye, but considerest not the Beam in thine own Eye?
A39861	And you, said our Lord, whom think ye that I am?
A39861	As it is written, How beautiful are the Feet of them that preach the Gospel of Peace, and bring glad Tidings of Good things?
A39861	At which words Abraham fell on his Face, and laughed, saying in his Heart, Shall a Child be born to him that is ● n Hundred years old?
A39861	Being thus divided one against another, they made the Blind Man speak again, and, demanded of him what he thought of this Man?
A39861	But GOD said unto him, thou Fool, this Night shall thy Soul be required of thee; Then whose shall those things be which thou hast provided?
A39861	But Jesus Christ demanded of him, How he( being a Master of Israel) could be ignorant of so weighty a matter?
A39861	But he answered one of them and said, Friend I do thee no wrong; didst thou not agree with me for a Penny?
A39861	But the Angel demanding of Abraham, wherefore Sarah laughed, because he promised her a Son, and whether any thing were too hard for the LORD?
A39861	Could you not( said he) have kept your Estate without selling it; or keep the Money after you have sold it?
A39861	Daniel being desirous to know the Interpretation of this Vision, asked one of the Angels what those four Beasts were which he had seen?
A39861	David, to congratulate his Victory; and when David asked him, Why he did not come to him during Absalom''s Rebellion?
A39861	Dost thou betray the Son of Man with a Kiss?
A39861	Elisha having heard her Complaint, ask''d her, what she had in her House?
A39861	For the Scripture saith, that the Disciples coming to him, asked him ▪ who was the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven?
A39861	For this reason it is, that all true Christians may cry out boastingly with S. Paul, O Death, where is thy Sting?
A39861	God himself endeavour''d by his Word, to cure Cain''s Heart, so impoyson''d with Envy; saying, Why art thou in wrath with thy Brother?
A39861	Has GOD so dealt with the green Tree?
A39861	Hast thou eaten of the Tree, which I commanded thee not to eat of?
A39861	He again desired further Instructions, LORD, said he, what wilt thou have me to do?
A39861	He asked the Subject of their Discourse, and why they were sad?
A39861	He enquired of our Blessed Saviour, How a Man could enter again into his Mothers Womb?
A39861	His Disciples asked him, whether this Man had Sinned, or his Parents, in that he was Born Blind?
A39861	How can we desire to be thought Innocent, when we are all Guilty; to pass for Righteous, when we rre Sinners?
A39861	I will give unto this last, even as unto thee; Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own; or are you Wicked, because I am Good?
A39861	If thou dost well, shalt thou not be accepted?
A39861	Is it I?
A39861	Is it possible that GOD should condescend to dwell upon the Earth?
A39861	JEsus Christ was led from Caiaphas to Pilate, who demanded of the Jews, What were the chief Heads of their Accusations against this Man?
A39861	O Grave, where is thy Victory?
A39861	Or how wilt thou say to thy Brother, Let me pull out the Mote out of thine Eye, and behold a Beam in thine own?
A39861	Or, Where shall we bestow this dreadful Pledge of his Omnipotent Presence?
A39861	Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and thus enter into his Glory?
A39861	Ought not this to satisfie us, that GOD himself, keeps account of the Days and M ● nutes of our sufferings?
A39861	Our LORD ask''d him whether they had not all been Cured and what were become of the other Nine?
A39861	Our Saviour Demanded of this ▪ Doctor, who of these three Men had been his Neighbour, who fell amongst Thieves?
A39861	Our Saviour did not set himself to Refute their Vain Imaginations?
A39861	Saul seeing his Son taken by the Lot, demanded of him what he had done?
A39861	Shalt thou not be rewarded accordingly?
A39861	Surely, if we would not deceive our selves, we must prefer Job''s Dunghil before Solomon''s Throne?
A39861	That is to say, My GOD, my GOD, why hast thou forsaken me?
A39861	The Chariot being then come to a place where there was Water, he caused it to stop, and demanded what hindred his being Baptized?
A39861	The High Priest arose, and ask''d him, Why he made no Defence against this Accusation?
A39861	The High Priest demanded of them, Why they Preached in the name of Jesus?
A39861	The High Priest having heard these words, rent his Cloaths, and cried out, He has spoken Blasphemy, What need have we of further Witnesses?
A39861	The LORD with great Long- suffering, bearing with this sinful weakness of his Servant Jonah, only demanded of him, Whether he did well to be angry?
A39861	The Pharisees after this put him out of the Synagogue, and our Saviour having found him ask''d him whether he Believed in the Son of GOD?

A39861	Wherefore dost thou come to torment me before my Time?
A39861	Whilst they stood gazing on him, two Men cloathed in white appeared to them, who asked them, why they held their Eyes thus fixed towards Heaven?
A39861	Who art thou LORD?
A39861	Who can sufficiently enough admire and extol the Goodness and Mercy of the Lord?
A39861	Who is able to make War with him?
A39861	Why dost thou pine for grief and vexation?
A39861	Why is thy Countenance fallen?
A39861	Wist ye not that I must be about my Father''s Business?
A39861	Yet he said to him, Wherefore comest thou hither?
A39861	Yet we see, when Parents grow old, and need their Childrens Assistance, how seldom is it chearfully given them?
A39861	and do we think it just, he should spare the dry?
A39861	and if so, whether he should overtake and conquer them?
A39861	and shall Sarah, that is Ninety years old, bear?
A39861	behold the Heaven, and Heaven of Heavens can not contain thee, and how much less then this House that I have built?
A39861	he could audaciously answer, That he knew not, and said, Am I my Brothers keeper?
A39861	to which, as amazed as he was, answered, LORD, who art thou?
A39861	which was the greatest Commandment of the Law?
A42831	And do we act courageously for petty purchases; and faint and despond when we are to strive for Crowns and eternal Glories?
A42831	And if all this be short, what will be available?
A42831	And if his life be in trouble and discomfort; how terrible is it to reflect, that he must go from being miserable to be nothing?
A42831	And if neither reason, nor so much as our senses, may be believ''d, what assurance can we have of any thing?
A42831	And if the Master had such usage, what were the servants to expect?
A42831	And is it not a glorious Excellency, that makes Men like the fountain of all perfection?
A42831	And now did those poor Heathens hear the voice of a little Brook, and shall not we the noise of many Waters?
A42831	And shall the Beasts act more reasonably than the professed Sons of Reason?
A42831	And was not Tyranny well extirpated, when we were under an Army of Tyrants?
A42831	And was not this a Liberty worth the Bloud, and Treasure that was spent to purchase it?
A42831	And were not things come at length to a good pass, when men in Buff durst proclaim themselves the only Legal Authority of the Nation?
A42831	And what was this Belief of theirs?
A42831	And when one says, here''s Religion, and another says, there''s Religion; a third will scornfully ask, where''s Religion, and what''s Religion?
A42831	And when they come to such Sacred places as this, with what rude boldness do they enter Gods house?
A42831	And why may not the Spirit of God, working by an active Faith and Endeavour, fix Habits and Inclinations on the Soul, as prevalent as those?
A42831	Are there Flowers in the Wilderness and none in the Garden?
A42831	But is there not a cause for all this?
A42831	But the coming Day will set all right, and effectually resolve Pilate''s Question, What is Truth?
A42831	Can a Finite spirit bear such excess?
A42831	Do the wild Beasts of the Forest hear his voice, and shall not the Sheep of his own Fold obey him?
A42831	Doth not Nature it self teach you, that if a Man have long Hair, it is a shame unto him?
A42831	FOr the First, Who are the scoffers meant?
A42831	For can the regenerate be full of all manner of concupiscence, and at the same time be crucified to the Flesh, and its affections and lusts?
A42831	For what are all the pleasures and contentments of the World, but as so many rays of that Sun and emanations of that fountain?
A42831	For what is it to be happy but to be united to God?
A42831	For who can bear that dazzling Glory?

A42831	and how injurious were thy complaints to so glorious an expectation?
A42831	and how more unworthy of the favour of this glorious and triumphant Jesus?
A42831	and how much carelesness and irreverence do they express in their very looks and garb?

A42824	& c. Thirdly, The Woman said, she saw Gods arising, a company of evil Spirits( so some interpret) and what did Samuel among them?
A42824	( which was the term of familiarity that the Major used to call the Captain by) to whom I replied, What my Major?
A42824	After these preliminary Interrogatories he desired him to tell him what he had seen in the Night?
A42824	After this he examined him for what cause those other two Men were imprisoned?
A42824	And are there not concomitant considerations here also?
A42824	And be it so, will J. Webster say, what is all this to the purpose, when the Book of Tobit is Apocryphal, and consequently of no Authority?
A42824	And being asked how she could think it was Florence Newton that did her this prejudice?
A42824	And being asked how she knew she was thus carried about and disposed of, seeing in her fits she was in a violent distraction?
A42824	And being asked the reason wherefore she cryed out so much against the said Florence Newton in her fits?
A42824	And being asked whether she perceived at these times what she Vomited?
A42824	And being demanded how she knew she was not well yet?
A42824	And does not Witch, from wit and weet, signifie as well a wise woman, as I noted above?
A42824	And does she not, I beseech you, put her Neb also into it sometimes, as into a Reed, as it is said of that Bird, and cry like a Butterbump?
A42824	And he said unto her, What form is he of?
A42824	And he said, Do you not see the Old Hag how she pulls me?
A42824	And if after all this, Samuel was a K ● … e, or the Witch, or the Devil, what assurance can we have in interpreting of Scripture?
A42824	And if blessed Souls are, or have been employed at any time, how is he so certain the real Samuel was not sent here?
A42824	And if so, what interest could he serve in carrying on, or conniving at a juggling Design and Imposture?
A42824	And now, Can the Sun borrow its Light from the bottomless Abyss?
A42824	And that a Spirit may penetrate, possess, and actuate some determinate Body, and yet not be in that Body?
A42824	And the King said unto her, Be not afraid: for what sawest thou?
A42824	And then Goddard said, In the Name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost, what would you have me to do?
A42824	And they asked her what she spoke to, and what made the great noise?
A42824	And those dissenters are ready to ask a reason, why they may not be sent in Messages to Earth, as well as those of the Angelical Order?
A42824	And what is Melancholy but a natural Drunkenness when it serments?
A42824	And when the substance of the Soul does so perpetually cease or perish, what I beseech you will become of Memory?
A42824	And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried with a loud voice: and the woman spake to Saul, saying, Why hast thou deceived me?
A42824	And why not as well that, as appoint the Prophet to meet the Messengers of Ahaziah when he sent to Beelzebub, 2 Kings 1?
A42824	And why then should there be need of so much pumping to answer this Objection?
A42824	And will he lend his Legions, to assist the Armies of his Enemy against him?
A42824	Are you a good or a bad Spirit?
A42824	Art thou come to torment us before the time?
A42824	As for Mr. G. what opinion he hath of his own Gift, and how he came to know it?
A42824	At last I said, In the Name of God, who is it, and what would you have?
A42824	BUt did she not turn out her confederate Knave to act the part of Samuel?
A42824	BUt was it not the Witch her self that acted all?
A42824	BUt were not those Angels that so appeared, special Prophets, Divine Messengers, sometimes in Scripture confessedly called Angels?
A42824	But Secondly, would God send Samuel at such a time, when he was seeking satisfaction from enchantment?
A42824	But for a perverse Caviller or crazy Sceptick, what is it that will satisfie them?
A42824	But how shall the power be known to be so, when we so little understand the capacities, and extent of the abilities of lower Agents?
A42824	But it happening that the Woman of the house stood at the Door, he thought himself engaged to ride to her and ask how she did?
A42824	But she had only said, An Old Man cometh up covered with a Mantle; This is but a very General Description, and why must that needs notify Samuel?
A42824	But what Logical ear can bear a saying so absurd and abhorrent from all reason, that a Whole should not be divided into parts but into Wholes?
A42824	But what did the Spirits do, were the Serpents, Blood and Frogs real or apparent only?
A42824	But what ground was there for conjecture?
A42824	But what is the incongruity, or what the wonder, if one in his condition should speak incongruously?
A42824	But what necessity thereof that 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 should signifie Lamina?
A42824	But what need more?
A42824	But where got she the Mantle?
A42824	Can Heat and Warmth flow in upon the World from the Regions of Sno ● … and Ice?
A42824	Can any thing be more srantick or ridiculous than this passage of St. Paul, if there was no Spirit or Devil in the Damsel?
A42824	Can it from thence, that Matter may be conceived without Cogitation, and Cogitation without Matter?
A42824	Can there be any deduction or illation more close and coherent with the Premises?
A42824	Could a meer Mad- man have done so?
A42824	Could the Devil represent no other Old Man in a Mantle, or could none of the dead appear so but Samuel only?
A42824	Did any come near to whisper this in their Ear?
A42824	Do you remember the clap on your back when your Servant was pulling off your Boots in the Hall?
A42824	Doth he think they were made for that purpose only to serve us?
A42824	For can there be any thing more One than what has no parts, into which it may be discerped?
A42824	For what communion hath Light with Darkness, or the Spirit of the HOLY ONE with those whose genius and ways are so unlike him?
A42824	Goddard askt what cases?
A42824	Had the Woman a Wardrobe of all Habits for all purposes?
A42824	Had they a mind to go into the Swine?
A42824	He askt again why she sat with one hand over the other?
A42824	He being much affrighted and amazed, began to bless him, and at last asked her who she was, and what she wanted?
A42824	He enquired if any thing were amiss with her hand?
A42824	He immediately sent for the Prisoner and asked him in the first place whether he was born or had lived about Guilford?
A42824	He replied, I am such a one?
A42824	He seeing nothing, askt him whereabout it was?
A42824	How applicable is this to the condition of Evil Spirits and their expectations?
A42824	How are you regimented in the other World?
A42824	How can therefore this newfangled Method of Cartesius convince us that this Supposition is false, and that the distribution is illegitimate?
A42824	How could he imitate his Voice thus of a suddain, and they discoursed a very considerable time together?
A42824	How could that confederate Knave change his own Face into the same figure, look, and mien that Samuel had, which was exactly known to Saul?
A42824	How could the Cheat, or the Woman in another Room tell this?
A42824	How doth that appear to be so certain?
A42824	How shall one deal with these Men, and what will not their confidence affirm?
A42824	How then can we be ignorant that she is somewhere, unless the Body itself be nowhere?
A42824	Hurt, quoth he?
A42824	I ask therefore here, By what vertue, or by what manner of way do the parts of so perfect a Solid cohere?
A42824	I would fain know, whether this be not beyond the force of meer natural madness?
A42824	If that were so, what then?
A42824	Is it not evident from hence, that she had a Closet, how else should she come out?
A42824	Is there any Balsom in the Cockatrices Egg?
A42824	It hath indeed been a great dispute among Interpreters, whether the real Samuel was rai sed, or the Devil in his likeness?
A42824	May it not therefore minister to others?
A42824	May not they therefore be used in those Services?
A42824	Mr. Hunt askt her, why then she would continue in such ill courses?
A42824	No, says the Drummer, did you not hear of a Gentlemans House that was troubled with the Beating of Drums?
A42824	Now, says he, how could Manasses make a Familiar Spirit, or make one that had a Familiar Spirit?
A42824	Now, what did Saul make this respectful reverence to, if he saw nothing?
A42824	Or how came those Mad- men to know, and utter such a great truth, which our Saviour did not presently publish, That he was the Son of God?
A42824	Samuel ask''t why he had disquieted him to bring him up?
A42824	Secondly, He enquired if he knew any of the Inhabitants of that Town or of the Neighbourhood?
A42824	So that the genuine sense and Grammatical in this answer to, What form is he of?
A42824	Surely as yet Saul and the woman are in the same Room; and being the woman askt, Whom shall I bring up unto thee?
A42824	That towards Evening, the Door of the Prison shook, and she arose up hastily and said, What makest thou here this time a night?
A42824	The Constable askt her how she did?
A42824	The Prisoner was called for up to the next Bar to the Court, and demanded if she could say the Lords Prayer?
A42824	The poor Man having by this time somewhat recovered himself, ask''t the Spectre whether by the juice of Plantain he meant that of the Leaves or Roots?
A42824	Then Goddard askt him, who was consederate with him in the said murder?
A42824	Then Goddard said, What would you have me to do in this thing?
A42824	Then he enquired, if he had ever heard of one Mr. Bower?
A42824	Then it askt him whether he did not know him?
A42824	Then said the woman, Whom shall I bring up unto thee?
A42824	Then the Apparition said, How stand cases at home?
A42824	To make a due return to this, we must consider a great and difficult Problem, which is, What is a real Miracle?
A42824	To which he said, should both of us come, or but one of us?
A42824	To which she the said Elenor said why what hurt is that?
A42824	Upon which instantly appeared a little Man in black Clothes to whom all made obeysance, and the little Man put his hand to his Hat, saying, How do ye?
A42824	Was it possible that he should not perceive that it was not Samuel when they came to confer together, as they did?
A42824	Was it to a Samuel in his fancy?
A42824	Was there nothing now beyond the rate of ordinary Mad- men in this?
A42824	What may this be?
A42824	What of no Authority?
A42824	What station do you hold?
A42824	What stuff is this?
A42824	What therefore do these Forms to the Body when they communicate to it their Esse?
A42824	What thinks he of the Souls of Moses and Elias, at the transfiguration on the Mount?
A42824	What, did they swallow the Wiars and Pictures?
A42824	What, do they consult Jugglers and Hocus- Pocusses?
A42824	Whence are you?
A42824	Where is your abode?
A42824	Whereat the Doctor wondering, presently demanded, What is the matter, Cousin Captain?
A42824	Whereupon Goddard said, I do adjure you in the Name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost, wherefore did you do this murder?
A42824	Whereupon Taverner askt him in the Name of God who he was?
A42824	Whereupon the Doctor enquires what he meant by this?
A42824	Which contingent particulars, how could the Cozener and her Confederate foretel, if there were nothing in it extraordinary and preternatural?
A42824	Which must be another Person distinct srom the Man himself, and who was that?
A42824	Which when he came near, the Apparition spake to him with an audible voice these words, Are you afraid?
A42824	Who but one that had taken too many drams of the Bottle could ever fall into such a fond conceit?
A42824	Who joyned the Soul and Body again?
A42824	Why hast thou disquieted me?
A42824	Will the Prince of Darkness strengthen the Arm that is stretcht out to pluck his Usurpt Scepter, and his Spoils from him?
A42824	and did they enter into them?

A42824	and was not this he to whom Saul bowed?
A42824	for the living,[ 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉] to the dead?
A42824	or more Subtile than what does not onely penetrate Matter, but itself, or at least other Substances of its own kind?

A42824	or was it some short Cloak of her own, that she threw on him?
A42824	or was this a raving fancy only?
A42824	or, Can the Spirit of Life slow from the Venome of the Asp?
A42824	should not a people seek unto their God?

A44515	How will you wish, that you had been in my condition?
A44515	How would you take it, if a man should give you a box on the ear but now and then?
A44515	I could withstand them now, why could not I have withstood them then?
A44515	I do not deny, but Men may do worse, but what necessity is there for their doing that which is bad, to avoid that which is worse?

A44515	If they that walk afer the Flesh can not please God, how can you hope to please him, while you allow your self in this work of the Flesh?
A44515	If thou didst, how couldst thou be so ungrateful?
A44515	If to God, why dare not you prefer his favour before the favour of Men, and be guided more by his Laws, then by the benevolence of dust and ashes?

A44515	If you come to the Lords Table one day, and run to a Play- house another, do not you destroy all, that you built the day before?

A44515	Is this redeeming of your time to throw away so many hours upon fooling, and seeing mens ridiculous postures, gestures, and behaviours?
A44515	Is this sobriety, to stand by and hear men curse and swear, and talk of things which should not be so much as named among Christians?
A44515	Is this the return you make him for his sweat and agonies, for his sighs and groans, for his pains and all his labours?
A44515	Is this the way to grow in grace, and to advance in goodness, and to abound more and more in the love of God, which your Christianity obliges you to?
A44515	Is this to promote a lively sense of God?

A44515	Should God speak the word within a few Minutes, Come away, come away, and give an account of thy behaviour; how unprepared art thou?

A44543	He looks upon them smilingly; and asks the Man who brought them, Whether his Master intended, that Cimon should be his Friend or his Servant?
A44543	He that abstains from Cards and Dice, most certainly doth not sin, and who would not take the surest side of the Hedge?
A44543	He who preached up the Doctrin of the Cross, could he have any liking to that, which is directly contrary to that Doctrin?
A44543	He whose life was a perpetual selfdenial in the pleasures of this life, could he give the least colour, or shadow of approbation of them?
A44543	How apt is the World to get between this tremendous Day, and my sight?
A44543	How barbarous, how inhumane is thy Joy?

A44543	How is it that thou wast not afraid to make thy Belly, thy Gold; thy Harlot, and such a great Man thy God?
A44543	How justly may God look upon it as Presumption, to alter that Face which he thought fit to create in that shape it is of?

A44543	How much lightness and vanity have I encouraged by my presence?
A44543	How often doth he make it appear to the World, that where a mans ways please the Lord, he makes his very enemies to be at peace with him?
A44543	How ridiculous is that Man that hangs out a Bush, and yet hath no Wine to sell?

A44543	How will you wish, that you had been in my condition?
A44543	How would you take it, if a man should give you a box on the ear but now and then?
A44543	How?
A44543	I could withstand them now, why could not I have withstood them then?
A44543	I do not deny, but Men may do worse, but what necessity is there for their doing that which is bad, to avoid that which is worse?
A44543	I have Furies enough within: Ye damned Pleasures, whither have you brought me?
A44543	I hope you do not question the duty, and if you believe it incumbent upon you, can you imagin, that in frequenting the Stage, you imitate his example?
A44543	If a Treasure were to be had in such a place, and all about thee should be regardless of it, wouldst thou be as lazy as they?
A44543	If they that walk after the Flesh can not please God, how can you hope to please him, while you allow your self in this work of the Flesh?
A44543	If thou didst, how couldest thou be so ungrateful?
A44543	If to God, why dare not you prefer his favour before the favour of Men, and be guided more by his Laws, than by the benevolence of dust and ashes?
A44543	If you are, how can you run into the same temptation again, or go to a place where you will infallibly be tempted to the love of the World?
A44543	If you come to the Lords Table one day, and run to a Play- house another, do not you destroy all that you built the day before?
A44543	If you come to the Supper of the Lord there to profess your sorrow for loving the World; are you in good earnest sorry for it, or are you not?
A44543	If you examine your self in this manner and find these effects, have not you reason to ask God forgiveness?
A44543	If you have no courage to admonish them, what makes you appear there where you must be silent under the indignities offered to your Master?
A44543	If you lose this World for his sake, is not the felicity of the next recompence enough?
A44543	In Hell you''ll think, but it will be too late; there you''ll think, but your Thoughts will be your Torment?

A44543	Is not this fighting against you ● happiness?
A44543	Is not this justifying the Players profession, and to make them think that you approve of their ludicrous vocations?
A44543	Is not this making war against you ● soul?
A44543	Is not this tempting young people to those extravagancies they should detest?
A44543	Is not this the way to make her inamour''d with the World, from which a Christian is to run away, as much as he can?

A44543	Is there any thing in the Gospel more plainly forbid, than conforming to the World?
A44543	Is this a proper end of the mighty purchase he hath made?
A44543	Is this a sight agreeable to the strait way, and the narrow gate which leads to life?
A44543	Is this decency to afford your presence in a place, where the most debauched persons assemble themselves for ill ends and purposes?
A44543	Is this redeeming of your time to throw away so many hours upon fooling, and seeing mens ridiculous postures, gestures and behaviours?
A44543	Is this sobriety, to stand by and hear men curse and swear, and talk of things which should not be so much as named among Christians?
A44543	Is this the return you make him for his sweat and agonies, for his sighs and groans, for his pains and all his labours?
A44543	Is this to have the same mind in you, which was also in Christ Jesus?
A44543	Is this to promote a lively sense of God?
A44543	Moses grows impatient at the Waters of Meribah; Who would not have done so that had to deal with so stubborn a People?
A44543	Must I therefore slander and abuse a Man, because it is a less sin than to murther him?
A44543	Must sin be therefore multiplied, and the sickly minds of carnal men, more and more distemper''d?
A44543	O my Friends, are not these thing to be considered by God''s servants?
A44543	O my Friends, said he, Do you ask me where I have been?

A44543	Or art thou not afraid of that Saying, that Dogs must stand without?
A44543	Or have you a peculiar exemption from that danger?
A44543	Or how would you resent it, to have your good name taken away by a person, not always, but whenever his humour prompts him?
A44543	Or to be a spectator of so many undecent and wanton gestures, postures and actions, which in some Comedies make up the greatest part of the shew?
A44543	Or, because thy Herds and Flocks are great, must thou therefore commit Idolatry with them?
A44543	Say not, where are they to be found?
A44543	Say not, who doth so?
A44543	Say you so?
A44543	Shall men of no great sense of Religion complain of it, and shall a Christian do any thing, that may contribute toward the holding of them up?
A44543	Shall those Passions rule over thee which thy God hath given thee for Servants and Handmaids?
A44543	Should God call thee to Judgment, O my Soul, this Night, or this Hour, art thou in a condition to appeat before so great, so dreadful a God?

A44543	So great is thy danger, and canst thou loiter?
A44543	So near art thou to a tremendous Eternity, and Oh wilt not thou be clean?
A44543	Suppose thou didst live in a Street, where all the Men were Beggars and Vagabonds, would that be a Motive, to follow their unlawful Calling?

A44543	There are innumerable Sins, which neither Prince, nor Magistrate can take notice of: How many Poor are oppressed?
A44543	This stands to Reason; for except things be made visible to us, how shall they move or fright us?
A44543	Thou art a Christian but where is the Life of Christ tha ● should be in thee?
A44543	Thou art called to be faithful, and hast given thy Faith to God; Wilt thou break thy Faith, and hope to be guiltless at this Bar?

A44543	What will it profit me, that men call me Zealous and Fervent, when God sees, that gain, and profit is the cause of it?

A71315	& c. Do we take up our Cross, when we take it ill, that God sends Afflictions upon us?
A71315	?
A71315	A Christian, and Cheat, and Lye, and Dissemble, and commit a Thousand Abominations?
A71315	A Christian, and do things as contrary to the Nature of Christianity, as Light is to Darkness?
A71315	Again, to what purpose is the Multitude of your Sacrifices?
A71315	And after all, canst thou complain that he hath not visited thy Earth with his Showers?
A71315	And all that thy Light, thy Goodness, thy Seriousness, and Love to God might shine forth, and give Light to those that are in the House?
A71315	And are not these fit Examples for us to follow?
A71315	And are these the mighty Reasons that satisfie your Conscience?

A71315	And can any Sin be little, that is an Affront to a Great and Infinite Majesty?
A71315	And canst not thou believe the Blessings he hath promised, though thou seeest them not?
A71315	And dare you deny him that service, which your entire dependance upon his Charity doth challenge at your Hands?
A71315	And do but consider, what weakness, what impotency of Reason, and Spirit you betray and discover by such doings?
A71315	And do not you tell them of it, that they may amend and do better?
A71315	And do not you think there is a great deal of Justice in all this?
A71315	And doth not the same Gospel say, there is an Everlasting Punishment, a Worm that dies not, and a Fire that is never quench''d?
A71315	And have not we very illustrious Examples of this Patience under Affronts and Injuries in Moses, David, St. Paul, and of other Apostles and Believers?
A71315	And have not you a fine Religion, that makes you more afraid of the Opinion, and Censures of Men, than of the Wrath of the living God?

A71315	And how come ye to despise the Censures of Men in one Duty, and are afraid of doing it in another?
A71315	And how dreadful must their Condition be, when called away, to give an account of their turning the Grace and Patience of God into Wantonness?
A71315	And how shall he be convinc''d of that, if we do not return soft Answers for his rough and insolent ones, even Blessings for Curses?
A71315	And if there be such beauty in it, why are not we enamour''d with it?
A71315	And if this be the Nature of our Religion, to do good to them that hate us, how do we satisfie our selves without this Ornament of our Profession?
A71315	And if this must continue to Eternal Ages, what Tongue is able to express the Torment?
A71315	And if thou chargest God with Unkindness, when he hath been miraculously kind, dost not thou offer Injuries and Indignities to him?
A71315	And if to Obey God more than Men be Wisdom, where lies the Folly in being obedient to the Will of God in this particular?
A71315	And if we do none of these things, and yet call our selves Christians, do we not hide the Light, which that Name imports, under a bushel?
A71315	And if ye salute your Brethren only, what do you more than others?
A71315	And if ye salute your Brethren only, what do you more than others?
A71315	And if ye salute your Brother only, what do you more than others?
A71315	And is God the Governour of the World, and shall his Government alone, be without Places to tame obstinate Offenders?
A71315	And is not Devotion, from a Heart unwilling to be reconciled, a Worship much like theirs?
A71315	And is not our Intent, and Design the same?
A71315	And is not the Kingdom of Heaven a more lofty, and more spacious Empire than the whole Roman Monarchy, in all its greatest Extent and Glory?
A71315	And is not the possibility of falling into it, a sufficient Defence against this inordinate Passion?
A71315	And is not this hiding the Light, when thou hast an Inclination to do Good, and a carnal worldly Reason presently discourages thee?
A71315	And is not this sinking below Publicans and Heathens; for they love those that love them?
A71315	And is not this the Case of abundance of you?
A71315	And is not this threatning a Call to Repentance?
A71315	And is there such a thing?
A71315	And is this a suitable return for the Patience God exercises toward us?
A71315	And is this no Argument to stir us up to this Perfection?
A71315	And is this your Courage not to stand by your greatest Friend?
A71315	And may it not be said to such, Will you put out the Eyes of Almighty God?
A71315	And now give me leave to ask you, Is not this Work, and this End, the most proper Task of Persons, who have renounc''d the Devil and all his Works?
A71315	And now what shall I say more, to oblige you to let the Light of your good Works shine before Men?
A71315	And shall not we be concern''d at his Sin?
A71315	And shall the World, and your present Gain and Profit, blind you into Ruin?
A71315	And shall we deal thus with our Brethren?
A71315	And shall we make nothing of Spiritual Adultery?
A71315	And then hath God given thee nothing?
A71315	And therefore the Pharisees, coming to our Saviour about this Question, ask him, Is it lawful for a Man to put away his Wife for every Cause?
A71315	And what I have laid down here, ruines that common Plea, Why should I do more than others?
A71315	And what Ingratitude is this?
A71315	And what a lasting Hatred is settled in the Hearts of Antagonists by such Doings?
A71315	And what if they do?
A71315	And what is it that God would have us agree with him in, without delay?
A71315	And what should not a good Christian do, to convert a Sinner from the Error of his Ways?
A71315	And what?
A71315	And what?
A71315	And when he is ready to perform it to our Satisfaction, shall we stop the Accomplishment by our uneasiness under the Injury?
A71315	And when shall this Reconciliation be?
A71315	And which is the greater blindness, Corporal or Spiritual?
A71315	And why should we delay it?
A71315	And will you take the way to Hell, that you may get to Heaven?
A71315	And would you have God save a Man that doth not fear him?
A71315	And yet, how fashionable are such Discourses grown?
A71315	And, whither shall I go from thy Spirit, or whither shall I flee from thy Presence?
A71315	Another cries, Men will think it humor in me, and what if they do think so, where lies the hurt?
A71315	Are not these perfect Absurdities?
A71315	Are not these signs of Love?
A71315	Are not they all deliver''d with the same Seriousness, and by the same Authority?
A71315	Are not thy Commendations most rational, most weighty, most unbyass''d, most true, and most durable?
A71315	Are not we fond of Peace of Conscience?
A71315	Are not ye even in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ?
A71315	Are there no such Children?
A71315	Are there none among you that desire to be Great?
A71315	Are these Engagements kept?
A71315	Are these solemn Promises fulfilled?
A71315	Are they greater than those which were offer''d to Christ Jesus, or the Proto- Martyr?
A71315	Are things of this nature fit, do they deserve to be confirmed with such Religious Affirmations?
A71315	Are we therefore your Enemies, because we tell you the Truth?
A71315	Are you afraid of too much Comfort?
A71315	Are you sure you shall not?
A71315	Art not thou disrespectful to him when thou wilfully do''st that which he protests in his Word is abomination in his Eyes?
A71315	Art not thou unkind to him when thou sin''st against him?
A71315	At once to obey God, and to disobey him; at once to honour, and to affront him; at once to worship, and to blaspheme him?
A71315	Ay, but to break one of these least Commandments, and to teach another to do so, What great Matter is there in that?
A71315	Being an Answer to this Question, Why do you believe the Doctrine of the Trinity?
A71315	Believe it, and do nothing for it?
A71315	But V. Are there no Ambitious Men here?
A71315	But have not You seen some counterfeit Pearls, so Artificiously contrived, that the ignorant Spectator hath taken them for truly Oriental?
A71315	But here the Expostulation is more Just, Can any good come from him who Sins from the from the Father of Lyes and the Author of all Impiety?
A71315	But how can you repent of your Passion, if you do not mortifie it?
A71315	But how is all this to be done?
A71315	But how is this excellent Temper to be attain''d?
A71315	But is this an Argument, that I must therefore inflame my Soul with Wrath and Revenge, because the other swells with Venom?
A71315	But some Men will say here: Is not this the Case of the present Ministers of the Church of England?
A71315	But then, how can we agree with him, except we walk with him?
A71315	But what will Wishes signifie in that Day, when the time of Sowing, and Planting, and Working is past?
A71315	But why Man?
A71315	But why so disrespectful to that God, who incircles and crowns thee with loving kindnesses and tender Mercies?
A71315	But why, Christian, why art thou so unkind to that God who hath loved thee thus?
A71315	But you will say, may not a Man go to Law for his own, and may not a Man justly defend himself by Law, when he is wrong''d by another?
A71315	But, V. May it not be in some sence a Duty to love our Neighbour?
A71315	Can Charity be there, where the Man will not be Friends with his offended Brother?
A71315	Can a Father reject, or forget such Children?
A71315	Can a Fountain at the same place send forth bitter Water and sweet?
A71315	Can any Commandment, that proceeds out of the Mouth of God, be termed little?
A71315	Can such a Father Command any thing that''s unreasonable; or that is not fit for you; or which is against your Interest?
A71315	Can such a Father leave or forsake you?
A71315	Can that be lovely in us, which all Men take to be deformity in him?
A71315	Can there be Love there, where there is no Reconciliation?
A71315	Can there be a Government without Goals, and Prisons, and Dungeons?
A71315	Can there be greater Characters of his Love?
A71315	Can we imagine God is so fond of Services, as not to regard the Heart, which is and ought to be the principal Agent in the Service?
A71315	Can we read this of Barbarians, and look upon our selves as civiliz''d, who dare not come up to their Vertue?
A71315	Can we say, we agree with him, when God and we draw different ways?
A71315	Can you hope for any Mercy from him at such a time, when you do obstruct that Mercy by your uncharitable Spirit?
A71315	Can you seriously reflect upon this Commination, and be unconcerned?
A71315	Caress a Wretch that hath attempted to ravish the pledges of my Love?
A71315	Certainly, nothing would seem hard then, and why should it seem so now, when it is evident and apparent, you are in danger of those Flames?
A71315	Christians, the Gospel obliges you to love your Enemies, and will not ye love your Friends?
A71315	Content your selves with Corn, and Wine, and Oyl, when an everlasting Kingdom is to be had?
A71315	Content your selves with Trash, when Gates of Pearl, and a City of Gold is set before you?
A71315	Could God say indeed, ye shall not eat of this Tree?
A71315	Dare you appear before the Son of Man in the last day with such a Disposition of Soul, never yet seriously repented of?
A71315	Dares any say, he hath not?
A71315	Did Christ speak Truth in one place, and not in another?
A71315	Did Heathens do so, and shall Christians be strangers to this Practice?
A71315	Did not he consider the state and condition of our Souls?
A71315	Did they understand the Will of God, and can we follow better Patterns?
A71315	Did you go about mortifying that bitterness of Spirit, like Men in good earnest; how could ye fail of Success?
A71315	Do not even the Publicans so?
A71315	Do not even the Publicans so?
A71315	Do not even the Publicans so?
A71315	Do not even the Publicans the same?
A71315	Do not even the Publicans the same?
A71315	Do not even the Publicans the same?
A71315	Do not they Maintain, and Feed, and Educate you in the fear of God?
A71315	Do not they all come from the same Law- giver?
A71315	Do not they entreat you to mind your everlasting Interest?
A71315	Do not they plead, and reason, and argue with you, and warn you not to undo your selves?
A71315	Do not we commend it?
A71315	Do not we hear Men upon their Death- beds wish for it?
A71315	Do not we obscure it; do not we cover it; do not we keep it from shining forth?
A71315	Do not we own, and confess, and acknowledge, that these are certain marks of Love?
A71315	Do not we prize it in those that have it?
A71315	Do not we say all the kind things of it?
A71315	Do not we talk of it?
A71315	Do not you express all that''s terrible by Hell- fire?
A71315	Do not you find fault with your Servants and Children if they do not things according to your Mind?
A71315	Do not you own, that God sees the very Secrets of your Hearts; and do you hope to hide your secret Malice from his All- seeing Eye?
A71315	Do not you see how Tares, how Thistles, and Bryars, and Thorns, cover and hide the Wheat, the good Corn that grows among them?
A71315	Do not you see something in this Glass that''s very like you, and resembles your Temper?
A71315	Do not you think this would be as great a Torment as can well be imagined?
A71315	Do not your Parents love you?
A71315	Do we believe that God is pleased with those that have the Name that they live, and are dead?
A71315	Do we believe this Promise, and shall not we trust God for the pe ● formance of it?
A71315	Do we know how long we shall continue here?
A71315	Do you believe the Apostles?
A71315	Do you believe the Son of God, that came into the World to save Sinners?
A71315	Do you hope for Christ''s Rewards, and will you deprive your selves of them by your wilful Disobedience?
A71315	Do you hope to deceive him that searches the Hearts and the Reins?
A71315	Do you hope to make the Sepulchre so white, that he shall not spy the rotten Bones that lie concealed there?
A71315	Do you look upon him as the inexhausted Spring of Bounty and Mercy and Compassion?
A71315	Do you make Conscience of the Stipulation?
A71315	Do you own all this, and shall you think much of bowing the Knee before him, and breaking forth into Celebrations of his wonderful Works?
A71315	Do you own your selves Disciples of the Lord Jesus, and will not you believe what he saith in the Text?
A71315	Do you take all this to be Fancy only; or do you think that these are only Symptoms of brain- sick and melancholy Men?
A71315	Do you think to blind him, that sees by Night, as well as by Day?
A71315	Do you think to lull him asleep with your Devotion, that he may not mind the Leprosy which infects your Souls?
A71315	Do you think to make the Grass so thick, that the Snake which lies underneath, shall escape the piercing Eye of his Omniscience?
A71315	Dost not thou believe there is a God though thou seest him not?
A71315	Dost thou know when thou shalt die?
A71315	Doth Anger according to Solomon''s Verdict, rest in the bosom of Fools, and do you take your selves to be wise Men for it?
A71315	Doth God govern himself by the Verdict of the World, and sensual Men?
A71315	Doth a Fountain at the same place send forth bitter water and sweet?
A71315	Doth a Principle of real Goodness, give a Man such Reputation among his Neighbours, and is it not fit we should imitate these Patterns?
A71315	Doth he assure you, that it renders you obnoxious to Hell- fire; and do not you think, what if I should fall into that Fire in my Anger?
A71315	Doth not his Soul gather greater Guilt and Blackness by it, while our lasting and continu''d Patience, makes our own brighter and more splendid?
A71315	Doth not the Enemy sin grievously against God, when he doth Revile or Curse us?
A71315	Doth not the same Spirit run through all?
A71315	Doth not this argue a delight in a sinful sensual Life?
A71315	Doth not this infer want of Sense, and want of Fear?
A71315	Doth not this look like Enmity against God?
A71315	Either it will be fulfilled, or not: If it will not be fulfilled, where is Christ''s Veracity?
A71315	Except we be of the same Mind with him?
A71315	For can we say we believe his Promises, when we will not let the Light of our Piety shine before Men?
A71315	For if ye love them which love you, what Reward have you?
A71315	For if ye love them which love you, what Reward have you?
A71315	For if you love them which love you, what Reward have you?
A71315	For if you love them which love you, what Reward have you?
A71315	For if you salute your Brethren only, what do you more than others?
A71315	For what was all that Glory, but Paint, and shew, which perished?
A71315	God doth not, and why should I?
A71315	God is Love, and where should Love dwell, but in a Heart that loves?
A71315	God is the God of Love, and will he accept of a Devotion coming from a Heart that hath no Love?
A71315	Had God Compassion on me when I was his Enemy, and shall I have none on mine?
A71315	Hath God exalted your Natures above that of irrational Creatures, and is imitating Bears and Tygers, the highest Dispensation you arrive to?
A71315	Hath God loved me when I was his Enemy, and shall I hate my Fellow- Christian, because I look upon him as mine Enemy?
A71315	Hath God told you, that he will not strike you dead in a Fit?
A71315	Hath he peremptorily forbid you all Bitterness and Wrath, and speaking evil one of another, and will not you obey him?
A71315	Hath not God declar''d his Wrath and Indignation against this returning Evil for Evil; and is it your Wisdom to run into the danger?
A71315	Hath not God wash''d thee with the Water of Baptism?
A71315	Hath not he bestowed his Holy Spirit on thee?
A71315	Hath not he bought you with his Blood?
A71315	Hath not he given thee large and plentiful means of Grace?
A71315	Hath not he laid down his Life for you, to deliver you from the Wrath to come?
A71315	Hath not he loved us?
A71315	Hath not he power to prescribe Rules, how you are to worship him?
A71315	Hath not he set Examples before thee in Scripture, and in the World?
A71315	Hath not he surrounded thee with Motives, and Incentives, and Incouragements?
A71315	Hath not he vouchsafed thee the Light of his Gospel?
A71315	Hath not he water''d thy Ground, and caused Manna to rain upon thy Field?
A71315	Hath our great Master threatned it, and do we make light of it?
A71315	Have none of you a mind to be prefer''d and exalted to eminent Places?
A71315	Have not Thousands and Thousands hoped so, and yet been mistaken?
A71315	Have not you seen some curious Limner, draw Infects and Butterflies, with that Life, that one would take them for living Animals?
A71315	Have we a Lease of our Lives?
A71315	Have you read the Gospel, and can you call it so?
A71315	Have you so learned Christ?
A71315	He draws thee with Cords of Love,( was ever greater gentleness used toward a Child?)
A71315	He that delights in nothing so much as in a Heart sincere, and upright, will he be fond of Hypocrisy?
A71315	He that formed the Eye, shall not he see?
A71315	He that hath protested, that an evil Heart is abomination to him, will he relish the Water which comes from that bitter Spring?
A71315	He that scorned the Blind and the Lame offered to him in Sacrifice, will he be pleased with such blind and lame Devotion?
A71315	He that spoke you into Being, hath not he power to command you?
A71315	His ill Language, doth it not look very odious in him, and doth it change its Face or Nature, if we use it by way of Retaliation?
A71315	How Law- Suits are prolong''d to the loss of our Time, and Quiet, and better Employments?
A71315	How are we concern''d, if we do not mourn for it?
A71315	How can a Divine Command be little, that concerns Mens Immortal Souls?
A71315	How can we shew him a good Example, if we do not let him see, that there is a better Spirit in us?
A71315	How can you conquer it, if you do not strive?
A71315	How can you mortifie it, if you do not conquer it?
A71315	How can you profess sorrow for this Sin, when you fall wilfully into the same Sin again?
A71315	How can you strive, if you do not use the proper means and weapons God hath appointed in the Gospel?
A71315	How desperate must your Condition be, if after this solemn League and Pacification with God you wallow in your former Sins again?
A71315	How did Christ fulfil the Law and the Prophets?
A71315	How do many break their Sleep, and fall into Discontent, and Vexation, because they can not be advanced?
A71315	How do we confine our Love to little Sects and Parties?
A71315	How do we mourn for it, if we do not pity him?
A71315	How do we pity him, if we do not endeavour to reform him?
A71315	How do you forgive them when ye will not be Reconciled to them?
A71315	How doth it appear, that Christ did not come to destroy the Law and the Prophets?
A71315	How doth that excuse you?
A71315	How great is God''s care of our Souls, who from age to age preserves this Treasure to us?
A71315	How long halt you between two Opinions?
A71315	How much more must this hold in Spiritual?
A71315	How shall we reform him, except we shew him a good Example?
A71315	How sweet, how charming is the Motive?
A71315	How unlike God is that Man who talks deceitfully to his Neighbour, that tells him one thing and means another?
A71315	I am sure you can not think so, if you will consider it in cool Blood?
A71315	I call God for a Record upon my Soul, God is my witness, Behold before God I lye not, I say, what are all these, but solemn Oaths?
A71315	I do not deny, but these are good things; but what is all this to Christianity, which is a higher Discipline, and a sublimer Dispensation?
A71315	I would call to them in the Language of St. John the Baptist, O Generation of Vipers, why will not ye be warned, to flee from the Wrath to come?
A71315	If God be so kind to his very Enemies, what will he be to his Friends?
A71315	If Mens trespassing upon our Goodness, is subservient to the perfection of Grace, how can we be losers by it?
A71315	If he hath not loved us, what do our Praises signifie?
A71315	If he is to be blamed, why dost thou imitate him in that, for which thou findest fault with him?
A71315	If his Goodness be so great to his Foes, how great must be his kindness to his Favourites?
A71315	If it be lawful in some Cases, what those cases are; and what Rules are to be observ''d in the management of it?
A71315	If it be, where is Your Security?
A71315	If one Man sin against another, the Judge will Judge him, but if a Man sin against the Lord, who shall entreat for him?
A71315	If so, whence is it, that such Men find comfort, when the profane Herd can find none?
A71315	If there are none, what''s the reason of the many daily Complaints of this Nature?
A71315	If they can not move thee to Piety, to Goodness, to a strict Conversation before Men, how canst thou be said to believe them?
A71315	If they have been Gainers, why should not we venture upon the reproach of Christ as well as they?
A71315	If this be our Religion, why are we loath to put it in practice?
A71315	If this were all, what need was there of the Incarnation of the Son of God?
A71315	If those that hate him enjoy so much of his Bounty, what may those look for who love him?
A71315	If thou believest not his Promises, why dost thou profess the belief of them?
A71315	If to serve God be a weariness to you, will it not be so to others?
A71315	If ye had believed Moses, you would also have believed me, for he wrote of me; but if you believe not his Writings, how shall you believe my Words?
A71315	If you do not more than others, is it not a certain sign that you do not heartily believe an eternal Reward?
A71315	If you do not, do you think God sits like an idle Spectator of your Perjuries?
A71315	If you find Sweetness, or Consolation in that degree of Goodness you are arrived to, is not that a motive to go on from Vertue to Vertue?
A71315	If you love him, you must keep his Commandments; and if Love obliges you to keep one, why not another?
A71315	If you offer the Blind and the Lame, will not others imitate you?
A71315	Is God a God of Order, and will he be pleased with Contradictions?
A71315	Is God so great a King, and is it not reasonable we should come before him, when we come to pray to him, or to praise, him with the deepest Humility?
A71315	Is Hell- fire nothing but painted Flames?
A71315	Is he a Man, that you think to impose upon him?
A71315	Is it a small thing to you to affront him, and would you cheat him too?
A71315	Is it necessary to grieve for the loss of these outward Blessings, as if all our Happiness were gone?
A71315	Is it necessary to make them an impediment to our Duty, an obstacle to Vertue, or a stumbling- block in our way to the Mansions of Glory?
A71315	Is it not Charity in us to acquaint you, in what manner these Services are to be performed?
A71315	Is it not Kindness in us, to shew you the Rocks you are to shun?
A71315	Is it not Wisdom to foresee the Evil, and to hide our selves from it?
A71315	Is it not an excellent Character?
A71315	Is it not because the Gospel faith so?
A71315	Is it not commanded as much as labouring for a Livelihood?
A71315	Is it not far greater Courage to subdue a Passion, than to fall under the Power and Tyranny of it?
A71315	Is it not for those that follow and obey him, that their imperfect, yet sincere Obedience may be accepted?
A71315	Is it not greater Courage to overcome the Evil with Good, than to be overcome with Evil?
A71315	Is it not rather the way to procure the Frowns of God?
A71315	Is it not seeming to be good, when we are not?
A71315	Is it not to chuse proper Means to attain the end?
A71315	Is it not, because they are assured of his Honesty, Sincerity, Piety, Constancy, Veracity, and unfeigned Goodness?
A71315	Is it possible that God will prove false?
A71315	Is it possible that he will depart from his Word?
A71315	Is it possible to rejoyce in Persecutions, in being made the filth and off- scouring of the World?
A71315	Is it therefore necessary to rejoyce in it, as in our greatest Felicity?
A71315	Is not Christ your greatest Friend?
A71315	Is not Flesh and Blood that which you are oblig''d to fight against?
A71315	Is not forbearing to return Evil for Evil, Railing for Railing, ill Language for ill Language, a Duty as much as providing for your Families?
A71315	Is not the one as easily said as the other, and is there not far greater satisfaction in the one than in the other?
A71315	Is not this Drawing a Curtain before it, that it may not be seen?
A71315	Is not this a mighty Commendation?
A71315	Is not this a sign of a secret Hatred and Indignation against the ways of God?
A71315	Is not this an Argument of Obstinacy and Stubbornness?
A71315	Is not this breaking the Bond, and dissolving the Tie, and divorcing our selves from him, who loved us, and wash''d us with his own Blood?
A71315	Is not this shutting it up in a Dark- Lanthorn, when it should be set on a Candlestick?
A71315	Is not this the way to strengthen, to confirm, and to establish, and to perfect it?
A71315	Is our Goodness the worse, because it meets with frequent Trials?
A71315	Is that convincing them, when they see you do things, and venture on Actions, which God protests shall exclude you from the Kingdom of Heaven?
A71315	Is there any of you here, that''s guilty of any of these Sins, and yet do ye hope to be happy?
A71315	Is there any thing greater in this World, than the good and welfare of their precious Souls?
A71315	Is there not greater Spirit in you, than there is in such pitiful Animals?
A71315	Is this Agreement when he bids us harken to the Motions of his Spirit, and we are guided by the Suggestions of the World, and the Devil?
A71315	Is this being faithful to the Husband of our Souls?
A71315	Is this following his Example, Who when he was reviled, reviled not again?
A71315	Is this my acknowledgement of God''s Love?
A71315	Is this the Christian Spirit?
A71315	Is this the way to procure the Smiles of Heaven?
A71315	Is this to Love one another with a pure Heart fervently?
A71315	Is this to be Children in Malice, as you are bound to be by your Profession?
A71315	Is this to be like our Father which is in Heaven?
A71315	Is this to be meek as Doves?
A71315	Is this to express my gratitude for his Goodness?
A71315	Is this to know, what manner of Spirit you are of?
A71315	Is this to purifie your Hearts?
A71315	Is this to resist the Devil?
A71315	Is this treading in your Masters steps?
A71315	Is this your Courage to be Slaves to a silly Lust, and to crouch to a base Temptation of the Devil?
A71315	It is Enmity against God, and how can he be your Friend?
A71315	It is presumption, and you''ll maintain it, come what will of it; and how can God Almighty like any thing you do?
A71315	It is the Holiness of God that makes him sweet and amiable to the Soul: And how can that Soul delight in his Beauty, that sees no Beauty in Holiness?
A71315	It is true, God may restrain them from following your example; but if he doth not, is not this the natural consequence of it?
A71315	It''s true, there is an Intercessor that sits at the right Hand of God, to intercede, but for whom doth he do that kind Office?
A71315	It''s true, they were derided by the World for so doing; but have they lost any thing by the Bargain?
A71315	It''s true, you are liable to be Cheated, but who is not?
A71315	Let your Light shine,& c. and can you refuse to do it?
A71315	Love a Man that hath sought my Life?
A71315	Love an Enemy?
A71315	Mad- man, that thou may''st not be despis''d by Men, dost thou offend thy God?
A71315	May it not justly be said to such among you, as Elijah to the Israelites?
A71315	May so much Good be done, by letting the Light of your good Works shine before Men?
A71315	Men are led by Example, if you have an aversion from the Ways of Righteousness, will not this tempt others to have an aversion too?
A71315	Men, Fathers and Brethren, do you believe the Prophets?
A71315	Might not we as well say, that God spoke in jest?
A71315	My Brethren, Doth a Fountain at the same place send forth bitter Water and sweet?
A71315	Nay have not you found it very Comfortable to do so, to tread his Courts, and to worship him in the Beauty of Holiness?
A71315	Nay, doth not the wicked Man lose more by his repeated Injuries, than we by our repeated Patience?
A71315	Nay, if he be miserable, doth not he deserve your Prayers, your Alms, and your Charity?
A71315	No doubt it is so, and may be made very easie too; and if you ask me how?
A71315	Not dare to consult the interest and welfare of your Souls above that of Flesh and Blood?
A71315	Not dare to maintain a good Conscience in despight of all Opposition?
A71315	Not to love your Enemies will bring the Wrath of God upon you; how much more your not loving those who love you?
A71315	Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to Law one with another, why do ye not rather take wrong?
A71315	Once more, Is there not a Promise made to the Patient Soul, that God will stop the rage of her Enemies?
A71315	Or do you take that to be Repentance which is separated from actual Reformation?
A71315	Or, a Being so weak, that it''s possible to gull him into approbation of your Services?
A71315	Query, Whether it be in no case lawful for a Christian to go to Law with his Brother, or defend his Right by Law, when wrong''d by another Man?
A71315	Repine and murmur when we are corrected; are impatient under the Rod, and look upon the Scourge as our greatest Enemy?
A71315	See how his love to me shines in that glorious Sun, and shall I return hatred for his Love?
A71315	See how ready God is to give to you, and to lend you what ye stand in need of; and why so?
A71315	Shall God, whose Purity is great, and astonishing, and infinite, accept of an Oblation, which hath so impure a Foundation?
A71315	Shall any of us, after all these Motives, be loath to pray for his Enemies?
A71315	Shall his Patience make you worse, or his Forbearance harden you?
A71315	Shall it rise against the Porter, who hath Power to make of it a Vessel of Honour, and Vessel of Dishonour?
A71315	Shall we call our selves Children of this great King, and do nothing that''s truly like our Father which is in Heaven?
A71315	St. Paul was fond of this, and why should not we?
A71315	Take him into my Arms that hath endeavour''d to snatch from me the dearest Blessings I enjoy?
A71315	That he that hates his Brother, is a Murtherer, and we know, that a Murtherer hath not Eternal Life in him?
A71315	That thy Fellow- servant may not Jeer thee, dost thou dishonour thy Creator and greatest Benefactor?
A71315	The loss of an Eye or Limb is nothing to the loss of a Soul?
A71315	The neglect of the more difficult Task will make you miserable, and will not neglect of the easier cover your Faces with Confusion?
A71315	Then would ye be put off with a Temporal Reward?
A71315	This I say hath no great weight in it; for how doth it appear, that what they swore was unlawful?
A71315	Thou blamest him because he doth not salute thee first; and art not thou to be blamed as much as he for not preventing his Salutation?
A71315	To what purpose is your Reason, if from Gods forbearing to punish you, you do not infer his earnest desire to save you?
A71315	Treasures of Mercy, which came in with Jesus Christ?
A71315	Vnderstand this, ye bruitish among the People, and ye Fools, when will ye be wise, He that planted the Ear, shall not he hear?
A71315	WHAT is sweeter than Light?
A71315	Was God''s Love to me intended as a Pattern for me to follow, and shall I overlook the Design, and please my self in my Hatred and Ill- nature?
A71315	Was he ignorant of what our Shoulders would bear?
A71315	Was the way they walk''d in, good and safe?
A71315	Was there ever greater Cowardice than this returning Evil for Evil?
A71315	We all conclude, they were saved by doing as Christ directs in the Text, and shall we be fond of finding out a new way to Salvation?
A71315	We grant it, but whose fault is it?
A71315	We that stand so much upon our Credit, why are we loth to venture upon that, which will procure us such Credit not only with Men, but with God too?
A71315	What Flattery, what Dissembling, what Compliances are used, and all to be Great?
A71315	What Grief, what Sorrow, what Anguish must this cause?
A71315	What Ingratitude is this?
A71315	What Iniquity do''st thou find in him, that a God so tender and so kind can not attract or charm thy Heart into reciprocal Love?
A71315	What Injury we offer( by hiding our Light) to God and Man?
A71315	What Reward?
A71315	What a Mercy is it, that God will accept of a sincere Repentance after such Provocations?
A71315	What a Torment, what a Plague, what a Vexation must this be?
A71315	What a false Accusation of God?
A71315	What can keep you in awe if Oaths can not?
A71315	What cringing, what bowing to Great Men?
A71315	What do we think?
A71315	What else can be the reason of it?
A71315	What greater than your Father which is in Heaven?
A71315	What hath the World to do with my Religion?
A71315	What if Men should count you Fools for minding the business of your Calling, or providing for your Families?
A71315	What if Men, who have no right Apprehensions of God, make nothing of corrupt Communications, must I be guided by their Example?
A71315	What if no Man hath hired us; Is not the excellency of the Work enough to make us run into the Vineyard?
A71315	What if the brutish Man do curse us, what hurt can his Cursing do us, while we do not answer him according to his Folly?
A71315	What if they be weakly and sickly, is it likely he will turn them out of Doors, or cast them away from his Presence?
A71315	What is Hypocrisy?
A71315	What is Wisdom?
A71315	What is grace, but converting our Souls and Bodies to those Uses, for which God hath appointed them?
A71315	What is greater than God?
A71315	What is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing?
A71315	What is there that is more hunted after?
A71315	What needless Charges Men involve themselves in to their own Vexation and Discontent?
A71315	What running to this Friend, and to th''other Friend?
A71315	What should make it unpracticable?
A71315	What waiting at Court?
A71315	What was the giving of his Son, but a miraculous deceding from his own right of punishing us according to our Deserts?
A71315	What''s the Reason that so many Thousands rush into Sin, as the Horse rushes into the Battle?
A71315	What''s the Reason, that God calls away so many, and summons them to Judgment, before they have seriously consider''d, why they did come hither?
A71315	What, did not he know our Frames?
A71315	What, upon a Death- bed?
A71315	What?
A71315	What?
A71315	What?
A71315	What?
A71315	What?
A71315	What?
A71315	What?
A71315	What?
A71315	What?
A71315	When God bids us do one Thing, and we do another?
A71315	When God commands us to live in Love, and we maintain and harbour Hatred and ill Will to our fellow Christians?
A71315	When he bids us walk in the Light, and we walk in Darkness?
A71315	When shall that admirable Spirit, which shined so bright in the primitive Believers revive again?
A71315	When shall that pristine Unity and Purity return?
A71315	When shall thy Kingdom come, that the whole Multitude which Believe shall be of one Heart, and of one Soul?
A71315	When you come to lie upon a Death- Bed, do not you desire an everlasting Reward?
A71315	When you see the Crown of Glory glittering a- far off, which the eternal God holds out to you as a Motive?
A71315	Whence is it, that such Persons can rejoice in Tribulations, under which the careless Sinner faints and sinks, and casts away his Hope?
A71315	Where are the distinguishing Marks, to discern, which is to be practised, and which is not?
A71315	Where?
A71315	Which is better, that God should count ye Fools; or that Men should do it?
A71315	Who can grapple with him?
A71315	Who can make his Party good against him?
A71315	Who can resist him?
A71315	Who doth not commiserate a blind Man?
A71315	Who makes them to differ?
A71315	Who told you, you may observe one, and not another?
A71315	Who would have any Difference with him?
A71315	Why art not thou angry with the Fire for barning the Stuff that''s thrown into it?
A71315	Why do we praise him, as it is in our Liturgy, for our Creation, Preservation, and all the Blessings of this Life?
A71315	Why do we stand reasoning and disputing about the hardness of the thing, and do not put our Hand to the Plough?
A71315	Why should not we do as they did?
A71315	Why should not we free and extricate our selves from the Snares of the World, and press toward the Mark as well as they?
A71315	Why should we think much of it to cry, God bless you, when the Enemy cries, God damn you?
A71315	Why should you urge this,( will some say) for the thing is impracticable?
A71315	Why will ye provoke your Father in Heaven, to deal with you, as with hardned Malefactors?
A71315	Why will ye pull down that Vengeance upon you, which God was willing to lay by, and to keep lock''d up in his Magazenes of Thunder?
A71315	Why will you play with his Patience?
A71315	Why wilt thou dishonour him with those Creatures which were intended for thy use and refreshment?
A71315	Why wilt thou make those Members of thy Body Instruments of Unrighteousness, which were intended to be Instruments of Holiness?
A71315	Why wilt thou make thy Soul a sink and sty of impure and noisome Lusts, which was intended to be a Temple of the Holy Ghost?
A71315	Why wilt thou suffer that Tongue of thine to vent it self in frothy and corrupt Communications, which was given thee to sing his Praises?
A71315	Why?
A71315	Will not you blush to alledge them before the Searcher of all Hearts?
A71315	Will you dare to plead them in the last Day?
A71315	Will you plead, that you mean no evil by it?
A71315	Will you tempt him to send Scorpions, and fiery Serpents among you, when he designed nothing but Rods to correct you?
A71315	Would I use a Friend so?
A71315	Would not you have your Adorations of him useful and profitable to you?
A71315	Would ye offer Devotions to God which vanish in the Air?
A71315	Would you see and tast how sweet and gracious God is?
A71315	Would you therefore neglect doing so because of that Censure?
A71315	Would you think them so, if you lay Howling in Eternal Flames?
A71315	afraid of transgressing a Punctilio of Honour, when you run the hazard of Eternal Damnation?
A71315	and can any thing look more stately and magnificent?
A71315	and canst thou find in thy Heart to grieve such Bowels of Compassion?
A71315	and examine your Lives: Are these Oaths observed?
A71315	and if the Righteous be scarcely saved, where will the Wicked and Sinner appear?
A71315	and shall we be afraid to tread in their Steps?
A71315	and what is more amiable than Goodness?
A71315	because Flesh and Blood saith it is so?
A71315	how subject to Mistakes?
A71315	might not a Papist say, I mean no Idolatry by Worshipping Saints and Angels?
A71315	not dare to obey your God, whom you confess to be greater than the greatest Monarchs of the World?
A71315	not ours, but of his own impenitent Heart, which indeed deserves our Pity and our Prayers, but heaps no Guilt upon our Heads?
A71315	put these Indignities upon my best and greatest Friend?
A71315	to be sent away with a Curse, even with the Curse inflicted on the Man that came to the Marriage Feast without a Wedding Garment?
A71315	to tremble at the Censures of Dust and Ashes, and to throw your selves headlong into the gulph of Perdition?
A71315	to what purpose do ye pray?
A71315	what need of all the cost and charges of Miracles, and the visible descent of the Holy Ghost?
A71315	what need of all the mighty Manifestations of God we see, and read of, and pretend to believe?
A71315	when God enjoins us to take to the strait Way, and we venture upon the Broad?
A71315	when the young Man ask''d him, What good thing he should do to inherit Eternal Life?
A71315	whereas those of poor Mortals, how partial are they?
A71315	will the Name bear us out?
A71315	will the Title make us Favourites?
A71315	you''ll reply, Who saith it is so dangerous?
A44513	''T is dangerous to climb a Tree: Yet doth the Husband- man therefore let his better Fruit drop down, without getting up to gather it?
A44513	''T is dangerous to fight against a numerous Enemy: But is the Soldier therefore dis- hearten''d from venturing into the Battel?
A44513	''T is dangerous to go to Sea: Yet doth the Sea ● man therefore forbear his Voyage?
A44513	1, 2, 3. Who is this that comes from Edom, with died Garments from Bozra?
A44513	11, 12. by eating with the Man who had no Wedding- Garment?
A44513	13. possibly the same which Christ celebrated the Eucharist in; and who knows not, that mention is sometimes made of a Church in such a Man''s House?
A44513	2. to be the Husband of one Wife, yet how doth it follow from thence, that his Widow, when he dies, must never marry again?
A44513	26. that said to Christ, Have not we eaten and drunk in thy presence?
A44513	3. were as much out, when they cryed, Wherefore have we fasted, and thou seest not?
A44513	4. Who hath given me a Key to other Men''s Hearts, whereby I can judge, at the Receiving of the Eucharist, that my Neighbour receives unworthily?
A44513	AND dost thou think that those were the only Men that ever mocked the Lord Jesus, O my Soul?
A44513	AND hast not thou thus betrayed him, O my Soul, even with a false and counterfeit Devotion?
A44513	AND hath not this been thy Case, O my Soul?
A44513	AND hath not this been thy Temper, O my Soul?
A44513	And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews?
A44513	And can they imagine, that God will reward them for neglecting a greater Duty, for a less?
A44513	And canst thou think, thou shalt?
A44513	And doth not this look like Consent, or Approbation of that Murther?
A44513	And forgettest the Lord thy Maker, that hath stretched forth the Heavens, and laid the foundations of the Earth?
A44513	And hast not thou done so as to other Sins?
A44513	And hast not thou prayed sometimes to be rid of secret Corruptions, while thou hast hoped God would not hear thee?
A44513	And hath it not forced thee to call in other Follies to maintain it?
A44513	And hath not this been thy Case, O my Soul?
A44513	And he said unto them the third time, Why, what Evil hath he done?
A44513	And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, or scrip, or shoes, did you lack any thing?
A44513	And how are we better than such a Man, if we are afraid to follow our Heavenly Father, even then when he leads us over Rocks, and Precipices?
A44513	And how can any Man be sure there are such Words in the Bible, as, This is my Body, if he may not believe his Eye- sight?
A44513	And how little hast thou minded the threatnings of the Holy Ghost in this case?
A44513	And how much does this want of Rebellion, and thinking our selves wiser than God?
A44513	And how much doth this want of betraying thy Master that bought thee, and thy God who redeemed thee?
A44513	And if it were dangerous, why should it fright any Soul from coming?
A44513	And if one Circumstance may be neglected, why may not another, such as Sitting, be forborn?
A44513	And if others will be wicked, why should that be an Impediment of my being good?
A44513	And if such a Person be not worthy of him, how can be worthily receive him in the Sacrament?
A44513	And if these be proper and necessary here, why should the humble Posture, in which they are offered, be counted superstitious?
A44513	And if this way of reasoning were just, why should it not be as convenient for the Priest to receive in one kind, as for the Laity?
A44513	And if you ask me, What Reflections are most proper in this case?
A44513	And is not this a powerful Motive to bear what Providence thinks fit to inflict upon us?
A44513	And is the Labour for the Body of that Consequence, that the Soul deserves to be neglected?
A44513	And ought not this to make thee say to him for the future, Speak, Lord, for thy Servant hears?
A44513	And said unto them, Why sleep ye?
A44513	And seemed to be zealous for Religion, when it was only thine own private Interest thou didst aim at?
A44513	And shall I betray him any longer?
A44513	And shall I entertain them?
A44513	And shall I make much of them?
A44513	And shall I think any thing to dear to part with for thy sake?
A44513	And shall so dangerous a Guest lodge any longer there?
A44513	And shall this be made Felony, without Benefit of the Clergy?
A44513	And they said unto him, Where wilt thou, that we prepare?
A44513	And they said, What need we any farther Witness?
A44513	And was this a Crime, which Men of Ingenuity would have thought the greatest Mercy?
A44513	And we are told of a Man, that had the Power of Miracles conferr''d upon him, and being ask''d of his Friend, How he came by that Power?
A44513	And what better signs can there be of the Spiritual health, and flourishing state and condition of their Souls?
A44513	And what can we ascribe these Defects to, but to Men''s Indisposition?
A44513	And what if Christ calls Judas a Devil?
A44513	And what if there were?
A44513	And what is it, not to discern the Lord''s Body?
A44513	And what is this, but Consecrating the Elements, and Sanctifying of them?
A44513	And what, if sometimes he doth afflict us?
A44513	And where is the Place of thy Rest?
A44513	And while I give my self liberty to judge another, is it not a very great Sign that I am not very sensible of mine own Vileness?
A44513	And while thou considerest not the Operations of God''s Hands, how canst thou be thankful?
A44513	And who can abide the Fierceness of thine Anger; where thy Fury is poured out like Fire, and the Rocks are thrown down by thine Arm?
A44513	And who can forget himself so much, as to think that all this may be done without a serious Behaviour?
A44513	And whom couldst thou blame, if God should condemn thee as an Unbeliever, who hast resisted the known Truths of his most holy Oracles?
A44513	And why art thou so loth to be holy, as thy Father in Heaven is holy?
A44513	And, O my Soul, hast thou not very often, out of Mistrust of God''s Providence, made use of wrong Means to compass thy Safety?
A44513	And, O my Soul; Dost not thou see thy self in this Glass?
A44513	Are the Priest''s Hands holier or cleaner than the People''s?
A44513	Are there two Christs?
A44513	Are you Christians, or are you Heathens?
A44513	Are you afraid of living up to his Example?
A44513	Are you afraid of losing your foolish Delights and Satisfactions?
A44513	Are you afraid of parting with that, which is death himself to your redeemer, your Sins and Naughtiness?
A44513	Are you afraid of purifying your Selves, even as he is pure?
A44513	Are you content, all should stoop to him, and all that is within you should bow to his Scepter?
A44513	Are you content, he should be formed in you, and fill all your Faculties?
A44513	Are you so, saith the Bishop?
A44513	Are you willing, he should tread down his Enemies in you, Enemies which have usurp''d his power?
A44513	Are you wise and understanding Men: And will you not open your Eyes, and see your Danger?
A44513	Art not thou as dull and as dead in God''s Service, as thou hast been heretofore?
A44513	Art thou walking, art thou standing, art thou sitting, art thou going out, or coming in?
A44513	Art thou wiser than he; Or dost thou see farther into things than he?
A44513	Awake, awake thou sluggard, lest the Revenger of Blood overtake thee?
A44513	Besides, do People make a Meal when they are going to a Feast?
A44513	But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of Man with a Kiss?
A44513	But doth any Man of common Sense infer from thence, that such a Person is transubstantiated into a Fox, or Lion, or Tyger?
A44513	But how can a certain Law be prescribed to People that have neither Grapes nor Wine; as it happens in many Countries far distant from the Sea?
A44513	But how shall we ever love him to any purpose, except we use the means, whereby that Love must be raised and kindled in our Breast?
A44513	But however, if Communion in one kind be so profitable for the Laity, why should it not be as profitable for the Clergy?
A44513	But if these be the beginnings of God''s anger, what will the progress of his Justice be, and where will it end?
A44513	But the other answering, rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same Condemnation?
A44513	But what doth it signifie, whether the Modern Greeks, who are sunk into gross Ignorance and Barbarism, be of our Opinion, or no?
A44513	But will this Argument hold Water, do you think, when God shall plead with you?
A44513	But, O my Soul, how hast thou hunted after Shadows, and left the Substance unregarded?
A44513	But, What if Christ be in Heaven, and out of the reach of thy Baseness and Malice?
A44513	But, suppose it were a Task of some difficulty, Is Heaven worth nothing?
A44513	Can I look on my neglects, and not charge them with this Death?
A44513	Can I remember my Love to the World, and not accuse it of having had a hand in buffeting and reproaching of him?
A44513	Can I see all this, and continue stubborn and obstinate, and an enemy to these Virtues?
A44513	Can I think of my Pride and Wrath, and not bid them look on the Wounds they made in that Holy Flesh?
A44513	Can I think of this, and not believe, that this was to teach me, how I must behave my self toward those, that have done me wrong?
A44513	Can he that is the Fountain of Wisdom, do any thing that is irrational?
A44513	Can the Shell please God, who hath so often declared, that he will be satisfied with nothing but the Kernel?
A44513	Can we think, because we have no extraordinary Esteem of the Mercy, that God will set light by it because we do?
A44513	Can you hope for God''s Pardon at last, that refuse to accept of it in this Ordinance?
A44513	Can you prefer your little business before his Will?
A44513	Canst thou forgive such injuries, and shall not I forgive them that trespass against me?
A44513	Canst thou have a better Prince to rule thy Thoughts, and Words, and Actions?
A44513	Consider it, thou dull and careless Man; and then tell me, whether Christ requires any thing unreasonable of thee to prevent it?
A44513	Conversing with our selves before we eat, consists in asking our Hearts, What have I done?
A44513	Did ever any miscarry under his Rule?
A44513	Did not the hands of the Soldiers, that nailed the Saviour of the World to the Cross, tremble?
A44513	Did not your Hearts smite you when you said so?
A44513	Did the Priests receive greater Benefit by Christ''s Death, than the People?
A44513	Didst thou ever consider, O my Soul, what thy Sins did cost?
A44513	Do you believe that he must be your Judge, and will you allow always your selves in Rebellion and Contumacy under his Injunctions?
A44513	Do you pretend to be friends of Christ, and are you loath to accept of him for your Friend?
A44513	Do you take pleasure in being Reprobates?
A44513	Does any Man hope ot arrive to Learning and Scholarship, without Books or Reading?
A44513	Does any Person hope to keep himself warm in Winter, that puts on no Cloaths?
A44513	Dost thou hope to rest for ever among the Flowers of Paradise, and is it not high time to prepare for it?
A44513	Dost thou oblige thy self to be his Subject, and dost thou turn Rebel?
A44513	Dost thou say freely, and without murmuring, It is the Lord, let him do what seems good to him?
A44513	Dost thou take him for thy Lord, and wilt not thou do what he saith?
A44513	Dost thou take him to be some Heathen Deity that hath Eyes, and sees not, Ears and hears not?
A44513	Dost thou think God doth not hear the great Mediators Prayer for thee?
A44513	Dost thou think, he can refuse his intercessions, whom he always hears?
A44513	Doth any Man hope to thrive in the World, that will not bestir himself, become active in his profession, and apply himself to Labour?
A44513	Doth he promise to come and meet you in this Ordinance, and are you loath, or ashamed, to be seen in his Company?
A44513	Drink of it, thou thirsty Soul, Why shouldst thou fear?
A44513	Either thou understandest, what this engagement means, or thou dost not: If not, how darest thou touch the Sacred Elements with polluted Hands?
A44513	Eternal Life and Glory: And what greater Blessing can be thought of, to enjoy all Blessings at once, and to all Eternity?
A44513	Foolish Creature, Dost thou thus reward the Lord thy God?

A44530	You are for Peace and Quietness, but are your sinister constructions of your neighbours Actions, the way to it?
A44530	You are sick, desperately sick, why should you be loath to know it?
A44530	You can not but be sensible that these( you call) lesser sins offend him, and is this your love to him, to disobey him?
A44530	You complain of Ignorance; How should you increase in Knowledge, if you will not meditate?
A44530	You complain you can not conquer your corruptions; How should you conquer, when you do not strive?
A44530	and because they go beyond the just bounds of these Severities, must they therefore be quite laid aside, and despised as useless?
A44530	and if that be their great remedy, why should we not make use of it, before we have need of them?
A44530	and if to be better, how is it possible, you should be so, without you defend and guard your Souls, by such Holy purposes the next day?
A44530	and the smell of thy ointment, than all spices?
A44530	and to what purpose is it to adore him, when his greatness can have no influence, upon our Consciences?
A44530	any thing more necessary, than the love of God?
A44530	any thing of greater necessity, than the true way to inherit eternal life?
A44530	how humble St. Paul was, how couragious St. Peter, how fervent David, how meek Moses, how patient Job?
A44530	how inexcusable do you make your selves?
A44530	if we do, how can we want matter of Discourse?
A44530	look upon David, how patiently he endured the railings of Shimei; are you persecuted for Righteousness sake?
A44530	or Lusts that are deeply rooted, expelled with Sighs and Wishes?
A44530	or the Pot of greater consequence than the Potter that did make it?
A44530	or what shall a Man give in exchange for his Soul?
A44530	or wilt thou bind him for thy Maidens?
A44530	shall not we work to do him service, that works all our Blessings for us?
A44530	the Iron that lies by, or that which we do daily take pains about?
A44530	the same Spirit ready to assist me?
A44530	the standing Water, or the flowing Stream?
A44530	undervalue his Agonies, or fancy, they deserve no such Exercise?
A44530	were you sure to get every time you rise at night, half a score of Broad pieces of Gold, would not you make a shift to get up?
A44530	what can be more unreasonable, where is your Justice, your Equity, your Religion?
A44530	what great matter hast thou lost?
A44530	while we shut up our bowels of compassion to the needy?
A44530	whom can you blame?
A44530	wilt not thou be clean?
A44530	would not you have others put such charitable interpretations on your Words and Actions, and will not you express the same civility to others?
A44530	would you be preserved from fainting under troubles?
A44530	would you be supported in distress?
A44530	would you bear up under the greatest storms?
A44530	would you have others discharge their Duty to you, and would you be excused from discharging yours to them?
A44530	would you have others live up to this Light, and would you love Darkness better?
A44530	would you have others smooth the rough outside of your Offences, and put on them the skins of Lambs, and would you put the Lions skin on theirs?
A44530	would you have others subject to this Rule, and would you except your selves?
A44530	would you have others wash your errours white, and would you throw Ink on theirs?
A44530	would you hold out in the greatest persecutions?
A44530	your eyes are so entirely fix''d on the Flesh, and on the World; How should you love that, which you see but seldom?
A44524	( And why should he tell me so, if it were not so?
A44524	A Friend is often loved better than neer Relations; What may not I promise my self from this Love and Friendship of God?
A44524	All my sorrows and bitterness will shortly be poured out into an ocean of sweetness, and how little of it shall I perceive then?
A44524	Am I afraid God is not enrag''d enough against me, or that his Anger is not red enough?
A44524	Am I by the Apostles verdict, an Idolater, and do I make light of so great a guilt?
A44524	Am I certain that Iniquity will be my confusion, and am I resolv''d to dye?
A44524	Am I one of these stubborn, unconverted, careless men or no?
A44524	Am not I Religious for filthy lucre''s sake?
A44524	Am not I afraid of vengeance, or can I think God will suffer a wretch, that lives upon his mercy, and makes no better return, go unpunished?
A44524	Am not I more curious to know other mens conditions than mine own?
A44524	Am not I more severe in pressing the lesser concerns of Religion, than I am in urging the greater?
A44524	Am not I more zealous in publick, than I am in private?
A44524	And Sirs, will you be rob''d thus quietly of your bliss and glory?
A44524	And are not these excellent Arguments against Consideration?
A44524	And because the Tree is pleasant to the eye, wilt thou prepare for being expell''d out of Paradise for ever?
A44524	And can I resist that Love?
A44524	And can there be any thing more absurd, than to call an Ox, or Lion, or Elephant, a nobler Creature than Man?
A44524	And do you lose Heaven for this?
A44524	And dost not thou act the same madness, when thou preferrest lying in the Arms of an Enemy, before resting in the bosome of a gracious Redeemer?
A44524	And doth Salvation deserve no more, but a few slight and skin deep reflexions, when thou liest a dying?
A44524	And doth it drive me to give God my dearest and tenderest love?
A44524	And doth it engage me to count all things Dross and Dung, for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ?
A44524	And how could it consist with his Wisdom and Integrity to deceive me with Bugbears, and Chimera''s?)
A44524	And if they fear no revenging Arm, why should he make his Life miserable, by thinking of punishment?
A44524	And if they think not the omission prejudicial to their spiritual interest, why should he terrifie himself with counterfeit thunder?
A44524	And is not thy Distraction as great, to esteem a sinful pleasure more, than the favour of God?
A44524	And is that which was intended for his footstool, become his Throne, whereon he braves all the messages of grace and pardon?
A44524	And is this the Coat of the Sons of God?
A44524	And must I have no seat in yonder Mansion?
A44524	And now Sinner, which of these Pictures wouldst thou chuse?
A44524	And now let any man in his wits judge, whether Coversion, in that sense we speak of it, both in publick and private, be not indispensably necessary?
A44524	And run the hazard ▪ of an endless Tempest, for a few months Recreation?
A44524	And set by the Dross and Dung of this World more, than by the excellency of the knowledge of Christ?
A44524	And shall I after all this, repine, because I am not a Favourite of Kings and Princes, when I have God for my constant guide, and associate?
A44524	And talk of being saved, when thy actions savor only of preparation for eternal misery?
A44524	And to be enamor''d with deformity it self, when thou art courted by him, who is altogether lovely?
A44524	And what I must drink?
A44524	And what shall I gain by it in the end?
A44524	And when there is nothing can rouze me from my security, but affliction, ought not I to kiss the rod?
A44524	And where is that alteration, that renovation of the Mind, Will, and Affections?
A44524	And wherewithall I shall be cloathed?
A44524	And whether Consideration how to be converted, fall not under the same necessity?
A44524	And why should not my resolution prompt me to the same generous enterprizes?
A44524	And why should they be dearer to me than my God, my Soul, and a good Conscience?
A44524	And will you storm the gates of Hell, because others are so desperate, as to do it?
A44524	Are not these evident signs, that the World draws and attracts my Heart most powerfully?
A44524	Are not these very lofty and pregnant Reasons, to confute the necessity of so great a Duty?
A44524	Are questions I have a far greater desire to be resolved in, than to know, what I must do to please God, and to be happy for ever?
A44524	Are the concerns of my Soul so trivial, that they do not deserve one day in the week?
A44524	Are you afraid men will laugh at you for being serious?
A44524	Art not thou weary of iniquity?
A44524	Art thou still in love with that which will undo thee?
A44524	Because such a man ruines himself and his Family, have you a mind to do so too?
A44524	Because such a one doth not mind his Trade, but lies in Ale- houses and Taverns, must you necessarily make him your pattern?
A44524	Because such a one imbezles his Estate, must you therefore spend yours in riotous living?
A44524	Because such a one lets his Garden run to Weeds, must you therefore fill yours with Bryars and Thorns?
A44524	Behold, O my Soul, the vast number of the Stars, and Lamps of Heaven, how wise, how powerful is that God that made them?
A44524	Behold, they rise and goe down at his command, and do not fail one minute of their appointed time; how should this teach thee obedience?
A44524	Being advanc''d so high, why should I be enamour''d with a little Dust?
A44524	Believe?
A44524	But how can I love thee, except I keep thy Commandments?
A44524	But if they did, is there not some difference between knowing these sacred Truths, and having them set home upon the Conscience?
A44524	But may it not be requisite to enquire, whether these Doubters have ever taken the right way to be satisfied?
A44524	But then how shall these, or any other Cheats be discover''d and avoided, but by Consideration?
A44524	But then what would our reason signifie?
A44524	But what power hath my Faith upon my Affections?
A44524	But what shall we say?
A44524	But what will not Prejudice do?
A44524	Can I conceive it possible, that God will go from his Word, to please a stubborn Sinner?
A44524	Can I do less than love him, to whom I owe all I have?
A44524	Can I ever be serious, and not believe it?
A44524	Can I harden my heart against these Charms?
A44524	Can I hear the Son of God call so often, Woe, Woe, to ye Hypocrites, and hug the sin in my bosom?
A44524	Can I imagine God will blow out that everlasting Fire, to gratifie my vicious temper?
A44524	Can I look upon all these passages and occurrencies, and not conclude another world?
A44524	Can I refuse this kindness?
A44524	Can I remember the fate of Judas, and not think of a serious repentance?
A44524	Can I think he would say, A Little more sleep, and a little more slumber, and delay his obedience?
A44524	Can mans kindnesses be so prevalent, and shall not the goodness of God fire my Soul into a practical love to his Name?
A44524	Can not, did I say?
A44524	Can that Gold and Silver I enjoy and do so much prize and adore, be any motive to the great Judge of Life and Death to absolve me?
A44524	Can that be little which nailed Christ to his Cross?
A44524	Can the Rock hold out against these bowels of compassion?
A44524	Can the pleasures of Sin be antidotes against Sin?
A44524	Can there be a lovelier Being, than he, from whom whatever is beautiful in Men or Angels flowes?
A44524	Can there be any thing in Nature more silly, or ridiculous?
A44524	Can there be any thing more reasonable than Christs precepts?
A44524	Can there be greater ingratitude in the World, than I am guilty of by this sin?
A44524	Can there be greater madness, than to prefer Stone before Bread, and a Serpent before a Fish?
A44524	Can two walk together except they be agreed?
A44524	Can we read how tribulation and anguish shall certainly fall upon every Soul that doth evil, and not speak to you to prevent it?
A44524	Can we see you stand upon the brink of destruction, and be so cruel, as not to acquaint you with the bottomless gulph that''s underneath?
A44524	Canst thou have such low thoughts of everlasting Glory, as to let Consideration of it, come behind all the satisfactions of thy flesh?
A44524	Consider, what shall it profit a man, if he gain the whole world, and loose his own Soul?
A44524	Consider, what your pride, and sensuality will at last conclude in?
A44524	Consider, whether you are not obliged to practice all those Vertues, and Duties, that the meaner sort perform?
A44524	Consideration?
A44524	Darken the Room that I may not see the Sun?
A44524	Did ever any Father love his Son so, as never to part company?
A44524	Did ever any man hate his own flesh?
A44524	Did it raise them to the power of Senacherib, to the magnificence of Nebuchadnezar, to the pleasures of Solomon?
A44524	Did offending a Gracious God, ever cost me the tenth part of the Tears, I shed for being deprived of a little shining Clay?
A44524	Did sin ever grieve me a quarter so much as a temporal loss?
A44524	Did the sot but blow those sparks of Reason he hath left, into such considerations as these, how horrid, how nauseous would the sin appear?
A44524	Did they ever do, what every rational man ought to do, that is willing to be ascertained of the truth of a common report?
A44524	Do I know that I shall be miserable, if I continue in that course I have held on in hitherto, and am I in love with eternal ruine?
A44524	Do I lead a life which is the readiest way to eternal Vengeance, and shall I not step back and prevent it?
A44524	Do I make nothing of God''s threatenings?
A44524	Do I run the hazard of everlasting flames, and do I lie playing in the Suburbs of destruction?
A44524	Do men gather Grapes of Thorns, or Figs of Thistles?
A44524	Do not I applaud my self for my own sanctity, while I despise others, whom I fancy not so Holy as I am?
A44524	Do not I by pretending to please God, neglect my Duty to my neighbor?
A44524	Do not I draw nigh to God with my Lips, when in my heart and conversation I deny him?
A44524	Do not I make Devotion a scaffold to erect my own credit and profit by?
A44524	Do not I make a gain of Godliness, and use Religion as a cloak, to cover my secret sins?
A44524	Do not I pretend God''s Glory sometimes, when I aim at nothing but mine own?
A44524	Do not I require those Duties of other men, which my self am loath to practise?
A44524	Do not deceive thy self, doth not this knowledge thou pretendest to, make thee secure and careless?
A44524	Do not they trudge from Lawyer to Lawyer to advise about the Evidences, that relate to it?
A44524	Doe not I come too late, O my Lord, to the throne of Grace?
A44524	Doe not I commend that in a rich or great man, which I can reprehend in my inferiors, or meaner persons?
A44524	Does not every man desire to be happy?
A44524	Does not my blood rise at the very thoughts of it?
A44524	Does the case stand thus, and must my sinful life expire into the Worm that dies not?
A44524	Doest not thou see how in sickness the Soul sympathizes with the Body?
A44524	Dost not thou remember, O my Soul, how the world Was lost by eating of the forbidden Tree?
A44524	Dost not thou see the Enemy behind him?
A44524	Dost thou believe, that what ever is in man, and can challenge obedience, is more eminently in God, and dost thou scruple to comply with his Will?
A44524	Dost thou feel this O my Soul?
A44524	Dost thou rightly understand, O my Soul, what this great, and tremendous Ordinance means?

A44524	Dost thou see the Angel of the Lord preparing to rain down Fire and Brimstone on thee, and wilt thou not save thy self in Zoar?
A44524	Dost thou see the Revenger of blood upon thy heels, and wilt not thou run into the City of Refuge?
A44524	Dost thou see the great burning Lake before thee, and dost not thou quake and tremble?
A44524	Dost thou stand upon the brink of destruction, and art thou not afraid?
A44524	Doth it discover to me my spiritual poverty, and make me prefer others before my self?
A44524	Doth it make me cautious and afraid of offending that God whom I believe of purer eyes than to behold iniquity?
A44524	Doth it make me cut off my right hand, pull out my right eye when they do offend me?
A44524	Doth it make me despise the World, and overcome it, and use it only as my Servant, while God alone is my Master?
A44524	Doth it make me embrace Christ both as my Redeemer and Governor, both as my Saviour and my King?
A44524	Doth it make me live like a person that believes the Omnipresence, and Omniscience of God?
A44524	Doth it make me pray with fervency and importunity?
A44524	Doth it make me prize Christ above all?
A44524	Doth it make me prize the promises of the Gospel above all riches, and doth it make me willing to suffer for Christ?
A44524	Doth it make me rejoyce in that Saviour I have not seen with joy unspeakable and full of glory?
A44524	Doth it make me take notice of Gods gracious Dealings and Providences, and admire Gods wisdom and greatness, and power and goodness in all?
A44524	Doth it not make thee sit down contented without the life of Religion?
A44524	Doth it not persuade thee to believe that thou art a Christian, though thou dost not imitate Christ in his holy life and conversation?
A44524	Doth it produce that mind in me, which was in Christ Jesus?
A44524	Doth it purifie my heart, and drive away those lusts that have taken up their residence there?
A44524	Doth it transport my Soul into ravishments upon the sight of yonder glorious things, God hath laid up and prepared for those that love him?

A44524	Doth it work by love?
A44524	Doth not Dives, his calling for a drop of water to cool his burning Tongue, affright me?
A44524	Doth not thy God know better, what is expedient for thee, than thy self?
A44524	Dull blockish heart, what dost thou mean?
A44524	Either I believe an eternity of Torments, that shall attend a careless sinful life, or I do not: If not, why dare not I profess my denial?
A44524	Feast with so Glorious a God, and come without a Wedding- Garment?
A44524	From the Earth, 0 my Soul, launch out into the Waters, how useful are the Lessons, suggested to issue by this Element?
A44524	God hath made me many glorious promises, how can I forbear rejoycing under the thoughts of them?
A44524	God love a little slime and earth?
A44524	God that might sport himself with my everlasting groans; what need he have cared, whether I were saved or no?
A44524	God would save thee by that burthen which lies upon thee, and dost thou prefer a little froth before an Eternal weight of blessedness?
A44524	God''s Presence can make it a Heaven, Walls can not keep out the Smiles and Glory of the Highest; What is poverty?
A44524	Had God snatcht me away in that dismal service, how dreadful would my wages have been?
A44524	Had any man but shewn me the ten thousandth part of that love, which God hath manifested to me, how should I love him?

A44524	Had you been but a quarter of an hour in Hell, would not you call all those men sots, and fools, that now excuse their wilful neglect of this work?
A44524	Hast not thou heard thy Saviour call, Come to me all ye that are weary and heavy loaden, and I will give ye rest?
A44524	Hast thou receiv''d the good at the hand of the Lord, and shalt not thou receive the evil also?
A44524	Hath Gods Favour no Temptation?
A44524	Hath Heaven no Beauty?
A44524	Hath not he power to do with his own what he pleaseth?
A44524	Have I liv''d in the World all this while, and am not I nearer Heaven than I was some years ago?
A44524	Have I no self- end in any Religious Duty?
A44524	Have not I enemies enough, but I must make my self my greatest Foe?
A44524	Have not I reason to believe he would go beyond Zachaeus, leave himself but just enough to live on, and study how to do good with the rest?
A44524	Have not I reason to believe, that the Lawes of Christ would seem very facil and practicable to him?
A44524	He that makes a rich Carpet, doth not intend it for Dish- clouts: And shall I think God more imprudent than man?

A44524	How close doth my heart stick to the profits and advantages it affords?
A44524	How dead under the joyful message of pardon?

A44524	How dull when tempted by all the ravishing arguments of Gods love, to love him above all?
A44524	How far greater pains do I take to be rich, than to be happy for ever?
A44524	How far greater satisfaction doth my thriving in the world give me, than my thriving in Grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ?
A44524	How frequent the motions of thy spirit thou hast shed into my Soul?
A44524	How great hath been thy care of my temporal concerns, but how far greater thy care of the weighty concerns of my Soul?

A44524	How happy art thou, if thou art sensible of these operations?
A44524	How happy do I count my self, when Religion doth cost me nothing?
A44524	How hast thou adjur''d me by the bowels of Jesus, by the wounds and agonies of the Son of God, to dye unto sin, and to live unto righteousness?
A44524	How hast thou allur''d me by the various tokens of thy Love, to love thee better than the World?
A44524	How hast thou bid me trust to broken Reeds, and lean on props which were rotten and decay''d?
A44524	How hast thou disparaged Piety to me, as a sneaking qualification, and represented Sin as the Royal way to Credit and Reputation?
A44524	How hast thou prompted me to palliate my Offences, and to lay them at other mens doors?
A44524	How hearty is my joy, under the blessings of Gods left hand?
A44524	How inconsiderable an Insect is a Flie?
A44524	How inexcusable will this make thee?
A44524	How is my Soul bound up with my Corn, and Wine; and Oyl?
A44524	How is my Soul fix''d upon this World?
A44524	How is that glorious Image thou didst once shed into his breast, blotted and defiled?
A44524	How is thy pomp brought down to the grave?
A44524	How is thy similitude in Man defaced?

A44524	How should I speak of his favours?
A44524	How should I stand amazed at the strangeness of the favour?
A44524	How should I study to please him?
A44524	How should my Soul rejoyce at the dawning of it?
A44524	How should the possibility of such misery fright and terrifie me into watchfulness and seriousness?
A44524	How should these Cheats be discover''d but by our reason?
A44524	How sinner?
A44524	How soon might I vanquish this sin?
A44524	How strange hath been thy condescension, and doth not all this deserve my love?
A44524	How strangely hast thou wheel''d things about for my deliverance?
A44524	How strong have been the convictions thou hast vouchsafed me?
A44524	How unwillingly, how grudgingly, do I part with any thing considerable, for Charitable uses?
A44524	How unworthy have I lived of this incomprehensible Love?
A44524	How unworthy of that Reason which the wise Creator hath bestowed upon me?
A44524	How unworthy of those Mercies I daily enjoy?
A44524	How vain will my love appear in the last day, if it hath been a stranger to obedience here?
A44524	How wisely dost thou order my affairs?
A44524	How wisely hast thou many times denied me temporal mercies, because thou hadst a mind to enrich me with spiritual Blessings in Heavenly places?
A44524	How wonderufl are thy Providences to me and mine?
A44524	How would many of the sober Heathens, have scorned a temptation to such a sin?
A44524	How?
A44524	I find how this sin deprives me of a Holy communion with God, and shall I loose my greatest comfort and support, and satisfaction for it?
A44524	I have been abused and cheated by Sin these many years, and shall I be cheated still?
A44524	I pretend to knowledge of the Cross of Christ, but doth this knowledge make me humble and vile in mine own eyes?
A44524	I that will not be cheated in my Trade or Dealings with men, shall I suffer my self to be imposed upon by a lying Devil?
A44524	I''ll be wise before it be too late, I will not hazard my Soul as most men do, O how I blame my self for serving Sin and the World thus long?
A44524	I, see a Law in my Members, warring against the Law of my Mind, and bringing me into captivity to the Law of Sin?
A44524	If God doth do nothing in vain, what can we imagine that this power of Consideration is given for?
A44524	If God had commanded severer things, is not Heaven recompence enough?
A44524	If God laid down his life for his enemies, what will not he do for his friends?
A44524	If I am none of this number, What means the bleating of Sheep, and the lowing of Oxen in mine ears?
A44524	If I do not thrive in outward Riches, by loving thee; hast not thou who art rich in mercy, a pearl of price to bestow upon me when this life is ended?
A44524	If I fear not Hell- fire, why do not I fear impoverishing of my self and Family?
A44524	If I loose in this World by loving thee, hast not thou Treasures enough to recompence my losses?
A44524	If a fool laughs at you, do you regard it?
A44524	If any man love the World, the love of the Father is not in him; and can I be contented without the love of God?
A44524	If he hath satisfied God for the injuries he received by any sins, why should they make a new satisfaction by holiness of their Lives?
A44524	If men despise me for loving thee, hast not thou Honour and Glory enough to crown me withal?
A44524	If the streams be so lovely, what must the water in the Fountain be?
A44524	If these be not signes of Grace, what character of mercy wouldst thou have?
A44524	If they hope to do well after all this, why may not he?
A44524	If thou feelest no holy force in thy Soul, to shake off every weight and every sin which doth so easily beset thee?
A44524	If thou must be miserable, hadst thou not better be so here, than hereafter?
A44524	Is God so dull an object that it can not stirr, or rouze thee from thy Lethargy?
A44524	Is he all wise, and doth not he know what medicines are fittest for thee?
A44524	Is his servant become his Sovereign?
A44524	Is it for this, that the riches of grace and mercy, are vile and mean, and despicable in your eyes?
A44524	Is it for this, you hazard the favour of God?
A44524	Is it for this, you leap into destruction?
A44524	Is it for this, you scorn the gold of the Sanctuary?
A44524	Is it not all one, as if a woman should entreat her Husband, to let her enjoy the pleasure of an unlawful Bed?
A44524	Is it not every mans interest to study how to prevent it?
A44524	Is it possible a messenger of that worth and beauty, and excellency, can want a lodging?
A44524	Is it possible it should fare no better than the GREAT JESUS, be destitute of a place where to lay its head?
A44524	Is it so as God hath told me?
A44524	Is it such a pleasure to be laught at by all men that maintain Sobriety?
A44524	Is it such a pleasure to have God my Foe?
A44524	Is it such a pleasure to make a Pond of my Body?
A44524	Is it such a satisfaction to have him, that can destroy both Soul and Body into Hell, for my Adversary?
A44524	Is not Eternity more to me, than a moment of time?
A44524	Is not here enough to warm my affections towards thee?
A44524	Is the King immortal, invisible, blessed for evermore, to be put off with the chips and shavings of Devotion?
A44524	Is the portion of Hypocrites no discouragement?
A44524	Is the world become his Master?
A44524	Is there any impediment that you may not remove, if you will?
A44524	Is there no Charm in his Love?
A44524	Is there no Physitian there?
A44524	Is there yet compassion left for such a poor sinner?
A44524	Is this adorning the Gospel of my Saviour, as my Profession requires?
A44524	Is this remembring thy dearest friend, to think of him solemnly but once or twice a year?
A44524	Is this slovenly Devotion a sit Present for him, who searches the Hearts and the Reins?
A44524	Is this the Livery of a Christian indeed?
A44524	Is this the Man that receiv''d a Soul to mind Heaven most?
A44524	Is this the Wedding garment I may triumph in?
A44524	Is this thy wisdom, to lie in a Dungeon, when a Palace is prepared for thy reception?
A44524	Is this thy wisdom, to neglect thy weightiest Concerns, and spend thy time in admiring Bubbles?
A44524	Is this thy wisdom, to relie on broken Reeds, rather than on the Rock of Ages?
A44524	Keep out a Messenger that brings glad tydings?
A44524	Lock the gates against a good Angel?
A44524	Look upon Jesus, the Author, and Captain of thy Salvation, who was made perfect through sufferings; art thou better than the Son of God?
A44524	Love God, and encourage sin?
A44524	May not he affright stubborn sinners, with what punishment he hath a mind to?
A44524	Must I see others run away with these Treasures, while my self can expect nothing but Gods curse and anger?
A44524	Must my body engross all my endeavours, and must my Soul be starved?
A44524	My love of the world is Adultery, and shall I desire that, wherewith I have committed Adultery?
A44524	Nay, when God doth love me so entirely, why should not I for love of him conform my understanding to his judgement?
A44524	No House in that Jerusalem which is above?
A44524	No habitation in that City, which hath foundations, whose Maker and Builder is God?
A44524	Notwithstanding my long contempt of these loving kindnesses of the Lord, I am alive yet, and on this side Hell?
A44524	O how their thoughts at that time will all be changed, and all their Triumphs be turn''d into Funerals?
A44524	O my God, can I think of so great, so holy, so infinite, so merciful, so munificent a Being, and forbear to be enamour''d with thee?
A44524	O my Lord, hast thou united me so close unto thee, and shall I defile my self, by setting my love on trifles?
A44524	O my Soul, canst thou name that charming name of God, and feel no joy, no gladness in thy affections?
A44524	O my Soul, who can express all the pleasing objects, which are in this Glorious God thou dost adore?
A44524	O sinner, is thy heart of stone, that it doth not dissolve at this Gracious Message?
A44524	Oh my Lord, how often hast thou darted Rays of Light into my Soul, and the impure fire of my Lusts hath prevailed against them?
A44524	Or would you have us leap into everlasting burnings with you, for not reclaiming you from venturing into that fire?
A44524	Quit that which must support my Family?
A44524	Satan follows thee, but dost not thou resist him?
A44524	Shall I be angry with a Chirurgeon, who to prevent the spreading of my Cancer, cuts off a Member, to preserve my life?
A44524	Shall I count that loss, which is my gain, and call my want of Riches, a misfortune, when it is the greatest remedy to fit my Soul for Heaven?
A44524	Shall I flatter thee with my Lips, and hate thee in my Heart?
A44524	Shall I give him advantages against my self, first let him deceive me, and then laugh at me?
A44524	Shall I harbor a Snake there, which will sting me into endless gnawings of Conscience?

A44524	Shall I join with that roaring Lyon, and teach him how to devour me?
A44524	Shall I love my Friend, and shall not I love thee my Joy, my Treasure, my Hiding- place?
A44524	Shall I love thee in words only, who hast loved me in Deeds?
A44524	Shall I sing in Chains, rejoyce in Fetters, glory in my Shackles, be proud of the Devils Service, boast of my Slavery?
A44524	Shall I think my self a Child of God, when that which I do, is fitter for a Child of the Devil, than for a Favourite of Heaven?
A44524	Shall I think my self sufficiently holy, when I am so little acquainted with the first rudiments of Holiness?
A44524	Shall I( Judas like,) kiss thee, and betray thee?
A44524	Shall he say, Suffer thou this affliction, and wilt thou answer with that ill- natur''d Son in the Gospel, I will not?
A44524	Shall so great a Soul be married to so mean a slave?
A44524	Shall the present Food flatter thee into eternal hunger?
A44524	Should I pretend to love my Prince, and affront his Law, how soon would my love be accused of a lye?
A44524	Sirs, what is it that doth discourage you from a sincere consideratiori of your Spiritual condition?
A44524	Sirs, what is it, that we are exhorting you unto?
A44524	Sirs, you stand upon the brink of a bottomless pit; who, but a man, whose brains are crack''d, would not look about himself?
A44524	Slight this stupendious blessing?
A44524	So great a Spirit join''d to so pitiful a vassal?
A44524	So in Fasting, Consideration must acquaint us, whether it be the outward performance we do regard more, than the inward frame of the Soul?
A44524	Spurn at this favor?
A44524	Sup with him, who dwelleth in the Heavens, and not purify thy self even as he is pure?
A44524	That man, who examines not his spiritual estate or condition, whether he is that sinner, that shall be everlastingly miserable?
A44524	The Angels love thee, and they have no other way to demonstrate their Love, but by running at thy commands?
A44524	Their Prophets, what mighty, what powerful Men were they?
A44524	There is no sin that''s more in my power to avoid than this, the most barbarous Heathen can shun it, and shall I pretend impossibility?
A44524	They all run to the upright in heart, and must I go without these Cordials?
A44524	Thou delightest in a delicate shape, why not in him that''s fairer than the Children of Men?
A44524	Thus it is with me, why should I deny it?
A44524	To see this, what sober man would not bless himself?
A44524	True Conversion consists in resisting and conquering such Delusions, but how shall they be resisted, if they be not known?
A44524	Variety is strangely delightful to thee here on Earth, and why then hath God so little of thy delight?
A44524	Was ever any man in love with torment?

A44524	What hurt hath God ever done me, that I should thus wilfully affront him?
A44524	What if God should strike me dead in a drunken fit?
A44524	What is all the light our Eyes behold, but a rush Candle to him that is the Father of Lights?
A44524	What is hypocrisie, if this be not?
A44524	What is it puts me many times upon doing good, applause from Men, or the love of God?
A44524	What is it stops thy progress?
A44524	What is there in them that should discourage me?
A44524	What judgements mightst not thou have inflicted on me for my wilful sins?
A44524	What makes me thus stupid, that I should forgo the Milk and Honey of Canaan, for the pitiful Garlicks and Onions of Egypt?
A44524	What man of reason would envy such advantages?
A44524	What means my earthly mindedness?
A44524	What means my living in wilful Contempt of so many commands of the Son of God?

A44524	What thinkest thou Sinner?
A44524	What''s become of my understanding?
A44524	What''s the reason that I can not shake off the fears of it, if I would never so fain?
A44524	What?
A44524	When I have been in the greatest straits, how hast thou shewn me a way to escape?
A44524	When is it that I intend to be clean, shall I delay it one moment longer, that know not but I may be in Hell before the Clock doth strike again?
A44524	When this Air yields to all gross Bodies, and lets them pass without opposition, how doth it read to thee Lectures of Patience and Humility?
A44524	Where words could not prevail, Tears were the means to supple and affect them; and, it seems, there is not stronger Rhetorick in the World than these?
A44524	Wherefore is he red in his apparel, and his garments like him that treads in the Wine- fat?
A44524	Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?
A44524	Who can express the Honour God bestows on those that give their hearts to him?
A44524	Whom do I cheat all this while, is it not my own Soul?
A44524	Why do I play the Hypocrite, and make the World think I do believe it?
A44524	Why doe ye dispute the case?
A44524	Why doe ye stand musing?
A44524	Why doe you deliberate whether ye shall or no?
A44524	Why doe you loiter?
A44524	Why does something within me check me, when I would be so profane as to deny it?
A44524	Why should Father and Mother, Wife and Children, Brethren and Sisters, Lands and Houses make thee lose a Crown?
A44524	Why should I be afraid to ask such a question, when there is no less than Eternity in the case?
A44524	Why should I call light darkness, and darkness light; put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter?
A44524	Why should I flatter and deceive my self?
A44524	Why should I love God less than dogs do their Masters?
A44524	Why should I sooth my self into kind thoughts of my condition, that is so apparently dangerous?

A44524	Why should I weep, when God takes away from me the cause of weeping?
A44524	Why should he fright me with painted fire?
A44524	Why should not my understanding serve me to consider the one as well as the other?

A44524	Will any man give over the study of Divinity, or Law, or Physick, because the ignorant Peasant sneers at him?
A44524	Will he bail you out, when Gods thunder shall break out upon all disobedient sinners?
A44524	Will he be your Advocate, when you shall have your Consciences pleading against you?
A44524	Will he undertake for you, when God will be abused and mocked no longer, and the day of his wrath doth come?
A44524	Will it not be far more comfortable to have none of this load to burthen, and oppress my Soul?
A44524	Will not the remembrance of my eager pursuit after these Butterflies and Gaudes, fill me with anguish and sorrow?
A44524	Will nothing less serve the turn, than leaving all, and following Christ?

A44524	Wilt thou receive such a Prodigal into thy favour?
A44524	Wilt thou take him into thy bosome, that hath been a Rebel, a Traytor against thee these many years?
A44524	Wilt thou venture an everlasting storm, for a present calm?
A44524	Would an audible voice from Heaven doe it?
A44524	Would any man imagine that you believe a reward to come, that sees you so greedy after a present recompence?
A44524	Would any man think, you had rational, immortal Souls within you, that sees you live thus?
A44524	Would not you confess, that all those pretended cloggs are meer cobwebs, which may be broke through with the greatest ease?
A44524	Would not you see the vanity of their pretences?
A44524	Would the Fool, I say, but think seriously on these familiar Arguments, how could he say in his heart, There is no God?
A44524	Would you be frighted from this duty by any temporal losses, as now you are?
A44524	Would you have me precipitate my self into ruine?
A44524	Would you have me starve and perish?
A44524	Would you have us to be as tyrannical to you, as you are to your own Souls?
A44524	after such horrid wilfulness?
A44524	and can not he pray that this fire may goe out?
A44524	and canst thou see a God court thee, and grow coy?
A44524	and doe not these Stars put thee in mind, how e''re long thou shalt shine as the Stars in the firmament for ever?
A44524	and dost thou let thy Servant goe without chiding, that doth neglect the business thou hast recommended to his care?
A44524	and drops of Gods anger more tolerable, than flouds of his displeasure?
A44524	and he seems to be able to comprehend with all Saints, what is the depth and breadth of the love of God?
A44524	and he that doth but frown now, how easily might he thunder?
A44524	and how soon hath this vain world taken me off again, and dull''d, and dash''d those considerations?
A44524	and if there were no Hell, no Judgement to come, how should the inconveniences, which attend this sin, discourage me?
A44524	and must my sport of sin be crusht into never dying anguish?
A44524	and my wilful contempt and neglect of Gods Will, be turned into Chains of Darkness for ever?
A44524	and shall Satan goe away with thy Soul?
A44524	and shall love to a sensual careless life, hinder thee from laying hold of the greatest Treasure?
A44524	and what Patent hast thou from Heaven, that it shall not be thus with thee?
A44524	and what communion hath light with darkness?
A44524	and whether you will dare to brave it at the great Tribunal, as now you doe on Earth, where you have no body to controul you?
A44524	and whither he walks in that strait way, and strives to enter in at that narrow gate, the Holy Ghost doth speak of?
A44524	and who is the looser all this while?
A44524	and why should you regard such mens scorn any more, than the laughter of fools?
A44524	and wilt thou beworse than a Devil, and spurn at that Love, which Angels stand astonish''d at?
A44524	and yet how free, how full are thy promises to the truly penitent?
A44524	and yet none of all these stir thy Soul to reflect seriously, what thou must doe to be saved?
A44524	are all the avenues to mercy shut?
A44524	are not Rods gentler than Scorpions?
A44524	are not these signs that Gods Spirit warms thy affections, and makes intercession for thee with groanings, which can not be uttered?
A44524	are the gates of Mercy open yet for so vile a wretch?
A44524	are you deaf to my groans?
A44524	are you grown strangers to compassion?
A44524	art thou afraid of being too much enamoured with this Jesus?
A44524	art thou afraid of renewing thy Repentance, thy Faith, thy Hope, thy Charity too often?
A44524	art thou afraid of thinking too much of this Love, and consequently of being too Religious?
A44524	art thou afraid that the sight of his broken Body will break thy Heart too much?
A44524	art thou afraid that the sight of his effused Bloud, will make thee pour out too many Tears and Prayers, and Praises of his Love?
A44524	but how wilt thou escape, if thou neglect so great a Salvation?
A44524	but will these delusions stand the fire?
A44524	can all the Beauty thou seest in that painted Harlot, countervail the misery it dies into?
A44524	can not he as well be glorified in thy Torments, as he can in thy Salvation?
A44524	can not he make his Justice, triumph over such a stubborn wretch as thou art?
A44524	can that be little which offends an infinite Majesty?
A44524	can there be a greater witness, than the Son of God?
A44524	can there be any thing surer than the word of God?
A44524	canst thou behold so great a love, and not loose thy reason in the admiration of its greatness?
A44524	canst thou behold that Glory, which God hath prepared for thee, and think much of these fiery Trials?
A44524	canst thou remember thy sins that brought him to the Cross, too often?
A44524	canst thou represent his Love too often to thy mind and affections?
A44524	canst thou see him carress thee, and turn away thy face?
A44524	consider thy ways upon thy death- bed?
A44524	did I but love thee as I do a dear friend, how easy would all thy Precepts seem?
A44524	did ever any Mother love her Child, as never to suffer it to goe from her Arms?
A44524	did the Drunkard, When he comes to himself again, Smite upon his Thigh, and say what have I done?
A44524	do not the homely feet of the former fright thee?
A44524	doe Men and Angels leave me?
A44524	doe all forsake me?
A44524	dost not thou correct thy Child when he is stubborn?
A44524	dost thou believe such a Heaven, where no good shall be absent, and canst thou be hunting after the husks, and empty shells of sensual pleasure?
A44524	dost thou know what Consideration means?
A44524	dost thou think he can not live without thee?
A44524	dost thou think thy being in his Heaven, doth add any thing, to his felicity?
A44524	doth God offer to kiss thee with the kisses of his Lips, and dost thou scorn his embraces?
A44524	especially, when fretting and strugling to shake it off before Gods time, doth but make my neck more sore, and the yoak far more uneasy?
A44524	first let him seduce me into the Net, and then punish me for being taken?
A44524	for shame, let not God goe away empty; think what a condescension it is in God, to be willing to accept of so inconsiderable a Present, as thy Heart?
A44524	for, What is thy life, even a vapor that appears for a little time, and then vanishes away?
A44524	hadst not thou rather be rid of that burthen than keep it?
A44524	hadst thou rather enjoy thy good things here, than lye with Lazarus in Abrahams bosom?
A44524	hadst thou rather goe along with him, that will murther thee, than accompany him that will encircle thy Head with a Crown of Glory?
A44524	hast not thou reason to thank him for chastising thee, but now, who might have done it much sooner?
A44524	hast thou forgot the peremptory command of Christ, Do this in remembrance of me?
A44524	hath he no Prayer left to stop my calamity, and to give a truce to my torments?
A44524	hath not thy God said, that he''l love those that do love him?
A44524	hath thy God a hand in this affliction, or hath he not?
A44524	he that before had a thousand excuses, why he could not do what Christ enjoyns him; how doth he now lay all those idle apologies by?

A44524	how often hast thou suggested to my Soul, the danger it hath been in, and yet I have not trembled?
A44524	how often have I deserv''d thine anger?

A44524	wilt thou pass by unkindesses of so deep a Dye?
A44524	wilt thou prefer the motions of a lying Devil, before the Oracles of the Great God of Heaven?
A44524	wilt thou prove a Rebel to thy Prince, a prodigal Son to thy Father, an unfaithful Servant to the best of Masters?

A44524	would a miracle do it?
A44524	would no other remedy serve turn to recover me, but the death of the Son of God?
A44524	wouldst not?
