A14594 | And shall I now dispute Thy Power? |
A14594 | And shall I now frustrate Thy Promises with my Obedience? |
A14594 | And the Effect before the Cause? |
A14594 | And when my God is to be serued, do my Ioints and Members faile me? |
A14594 | But stay: His Will? |
A14594 | But what? |
A14594 | Can I yet walke vp and down about vile and ordinary Functions? |
A14594 | Can Man behold his owne dutie in a fairer Volumne? |

A07839 | And Righteousnesse perfecteth Prosperitie: for What shall it profit a man, though he should winne the whole world, if he lose his own soule? |
A07839 | And indeed why should they? |
A07839 | And is not this the Prosperity which by our praiers( as by one speciall meanes) God gaue and continued to Queene Elisabeth? |
A07839 | And then by the way, haue we not all( I beseech you) very great cause to mourne for so heauy a losse betided to vs all? |

A07839 | For t who is it, that will harme you, if yee follow that which is good? |
A07839 | Now how slippery and perilous is that mans estate which falleth into the enuy and malignation of others? |
A07839 | Now what shall we say, or what can we say( my good bretheren) to these vnexpected and comfortable euents? |

A07839 | Or how shall we shew our selues liuely members of the same body, y if when one member suffereth, we suffer not with it? |
A07839 | Or why do I by weeping o with Dauid, prouoke the people to turne the saluation of this present day into mourning? |
A07839 | Or why do I so digresse from my ioyfull Text, to tune dolefull Elegies of sorrow? |
A07839 | Our Asa, h to put downe idols, rood- lofts, crosses, crucifixes, altars, holy water, holy waxe, holy candle, and such like filthy trumperie? |

A35558 | And why so much caution I pray? |
A35558 | Blessed Scripture, how hast thou been wrested and racked, by corrupt, illiterate teachers; to serve their ungodly private ends? |
A35558 | But how come Images, here; and Teraphims; that is, Idols: as particulars of Gods worship? |
A35558 | But what if this Idolatrie be but a conceit of Interpreters, some Interpreters: and upon better examination, prove no such matter? |
A35558 | But what use of pictures or images in Gods service? |
A35558 | How really profitable and advantagious hath it proved in all ages to wordly Wise men? |

A35558 | Thou that abhorrest Idols, doest thou commit Sacriledge? |
A35558 | Well, but how doth it appear, that by that goodly title, or denomination; those Rebellious Idolatrous Tribes are immediately spoken of, or to? |
A35558 | What an objection is this? |
A35558 | What shall we make of it? |
A35558 | Why? |
A35558 | Yet let me say? |
A35558 | there; Now for a long time Israel hath been: what? |
A34427 | And doth his care extend so far, as that one of these shall not fall to the ground, but by the permission of our Heavenly Father? |
A34427 | And is not this by the way a great incouragement of our Warlike State? |
A34427 | And what grief or anguish can be comparable to that, which redounds from this? |

A34427 | Is it not in my death? |
A34427 | Is not Gods hand in my suffering? |
A34427 | May we not hence justly conclude, that he is peculiarly careful of us in such danger and extremity as this? |
A34427 | O Death, where is thy sting? |
A34427 | O Grave, where is thy victory? |
A34427 | What can be dearer and and more sollicitous than the Affections and concernment of a Parent? |

A03128 | If we haue no appetite but naturall, of things concerning the body, what difference betwixt vs and the beast? |
A03128 | Is it not a fearefull thing to fall in his hands who is a consuming fire? |
A03128 | It may then bee demanded, was there no remission of sinnes till the day of his death? |
A03128 | Patience, a Stone will endure much ▪ and who euer indured so much as he? |
A03128 | Shall none of these moue vs? |

A39116 | How can we be truly said to love our Country as we ought, when at the same time we so openly correspond with its greatest Enemies? |
A39116 | How will our admired Liberties be then enslaved? |
A39116 | What Motives of Persuasion shall I make use of upon this Occasion? |
A39116 | Will not his Soul be avenged on such a Nation as this? |
A39116 | and all our ancient English Constitution, both in Church and State, quite dissolved, and given up as a Prey to those that hate us? |
A39116 | and cherish those Sins, which, if the former part of my Discourse holds true, must in the end lay it waste, and utterly consume it? |
A39116 | but to hear and fear, and do no more presumptuously? |
A39116 | for, Will not God visit us for these things? |
A39116 | our beloved Properties invaded? |
A39116 | our dear Religion violated and oppress''d? |
A09911 | ( Salomon is not so glorious) yet how soone it vadeth, and perisheth? |
A09911 | ALl worldly beautie, alas, is nothing else but vanitie; what more goodly then that of the Lillie of the field? |
A09911 | And now, Lord, with what fig leaues shall I couer the shame of my sinne, since I know thou hast cursed the fig- tree, that bore leaues only? |
A09911 | But is this a question for me, who can make no ende of sinning, to aske, when thou wilt be pleased to make an ende of thy punishment? |
A09911 | For in death no man will remember thee, and who will giue thee thanks in the pit? |
A09911 | For what teares will serue to wash out my Leopard spots, or cleanse my Ethiopian hew? |
A09911 | HOw commeth it to passe, O Lord, that thou art so mindefull of man, man beeing so forgetfull of thee? |
A09911 | Hath my best seruice vnto thee been betthen theirs, who kneeling,& saluting thee, haile king of the Iewes, yet crucified thee? |
A09911 | Into whose hand should this small booke, though wanting his owne Epistle, be deliuered, but vnto that, to which it hath before giuen so many Epistles? |
A09911 | My soule is also sore troubled, but Lord how long wilt thou punish? |
A09911 | Oh how light a load are the greatest mountaines in comparison of thy least heauie displeasure? |
A09911 | Oh tell mee how with the Prodigall shall I returne to my Father? |
A09911 | Oh then why should I be wearie of my groanings? |
A09911 | Or can Dauid become more mercifull, then his God? |
A09911 | Or was his Flocke dearer to him, thē thine is to thee? |
A09911 | Or what is it; is my sinne greater then it can be forgiuen, that so my wickednesse should exceed thy goodnesse? |
A09911 | What then may be the cause of this my Fabian- like cunctation and long pausing? |
A09911 | ego noui tuam superbiim& nequitiam cordis tui, since I can not reply as Dauid did, Quid feci? |
A09911 | nunquid non verbum est? |
A09911 | or if I doe returne, say, hast thou any more kisses, and embraces lest, for such a riotous Sonne? |
A09911 | or shall I entertaine my Soueraigne Lord with such houshold seruāts? |
A09911 | vt peream? |
A09911 | what Moses, or Aaron haue I to stand betweene Gods destroying Angel, and mee? |
A09911 | what sinne- offring, what peace- offering shall I bring to make attonement with the Lord? |
A09911 | whom haue I to make intercession for mee? |
A39620 | And are not these the methods we pursue, in order to bring about a Change, or some of the ends we propose in labouring it? |
A39620 | For is not the Assassination of God''s Anointed, thus contrary to our not touching Him? |
A39620 | For their Calamity shall rise suddenly, and who knoweth the ruine of them both? |
A39620 | Is not the endeavouring to embroil the Affairs of His or Their Government, so, to living quietly under it? |
A39620 | Last of all, Did you not look upon your selves as absolved from the Oaths of Allegiance and Supremacy, and on them as antiquated Bonds? |
A39620 | Or were you not for expounding them so as they might be best accomodated to Rebellion, or willing Disciples of such Masters who did? |
A39620 | Quid de eo igitur, qui Civitatem, qui Patriam deserit? |
A39620 | The 3. a Reason to inforce the observance of them, For Calamity shall suddenly come upon them, and who knoweth the ruine of them both? |
A09417 | & can there bee any darknesse at noone day, but it must bee wilfull? |
A09417 | 2. Who must be searched? |
A09417 | 3. Who must doe it? |
A09417 | Alas, alas, is not that a simple and a silly searche where such blockes as these are, lye vnespyed? |
A09417 | All that God can giue a man in this world, is his Gospell, what then can God giue to bee regarded, whē his Gospell is cōtemned? |
A09417 | But now England, how hast thou requited this kindnesse of the Lord? |
A09417 | But what doth this belong to them alone? |
A09417 | But, if wee will not doe this, then alas, what will follow? |
A09417 | Euen so it is with a nation, or a people: are they taught, and are they worse and worse? |
A09417 | How hard a thing is it to finde an honest, simple, plaine dealing man? |
A09417 | If anie aske, howe, or why this is so? |
A09417 | If then God hath stoode knocking at our heartes fiue and thirtie yeares: it is nowe time to be gone, vnlesse we open presently? |
A09417 | Meanes of knowledge were neuer so plentiful, and yet neuer more grosse ignorance: is not he wilfully blind, who will not open his eyes in the light? |
A09417 | Now wee come to the second generall point here laid downe: that is, whom must wee Search? |
A09417 | Now, how did this people( thus beloued of their God,) requite this his loue, which they had no more deserued, then any other Nation? |
A09417 | O England, how canst thou answere this? |
A09417 | O Search your selues: and thinke it not a matter indifferent to doe, or not to doe it? |
A09417 | O what a cursed sinne is this? |
A09417 | O what is this, that I gaue done against GOD, against his Church, and against my own soule? |
A09417 | Oh alas, what is this, or what can this bee: but a fearefull signe of destruction? |
A09417 | Repent, or else certainely God will take vengeance: But( will mans heart say) is this true? |
A09417 | The third point: Who must search? |
A09417 | This sinne was neuer amongst the Iewes: they indeede regarded it not so as it deserued, but who did euer make a mocke and a scorne of it but England? |
A09417 | Why should wee searche our selues? |
A09417 | Will anie man endure alwayes to bee mocked? |
A09417 | Will anie man endure to stande knocking continuallie? |
A09417 | and is Israel a Nation not worthy to bee beloued? |
A09417 | and shall wee continue so still? |
A09417 | then howe long hath GOD beene mocked? |
A09417 | what are moul- hilles, when such mountains are not seene? |
A39269 | 5. which is ever crying out, when will the Sabboth be gone, that we may set ● forth wheat? |
A39269 | And now, Whose doing is this? |
A39269 | How was he round about begirt with miseries? |
A39269 | If we cast an eye back upon our gracious David whilest under the cloud an Exile: what can we see, but the LORD alone, he had to confide in? |
A39269 | Many,''t is true, goe before mee, and it is very fit they should; Others come with richer cloathing, and finer language, and why not? |
A39269 | So would they doubtlesly have said, Have any of the Rulers or Pharisees received this stone? |
A39269 | To whom did he proffer it? |
A39269 | To whom it was proffer''d? |
A39269 | Was it ever thus, so long as England willingly embraced the Corner- stones which GOD proffer''d her? |
A39269 | What Praises therefore do we now owe unto God for all these his Marvailous workes? |
A39269 | What it was? |
A39269 | What welcome it found? |
A39269 | have any of the Rulers or of the Pharisees believed on him? |
A12360 | 5. first as the Marriners had before done, beleeved the Word of GOD, though they never heard it before? |
A12360 | And in what danger shall wee despaire? |
A12360 | And why should God teach the heedlesse to learne? |
A12360 | And why should not all pray to Ionahs God, and Pharaoh pray to Moses God, seeing God hath said, Call upon me in trouble and I will heare thee? |
A12360 | Art thou not worthy to lose the gifts of God, which venturest to lose them when thou needest not? |
A12360 | But he comes often as a friend, as an Angell of light, how shall I descry him? |
A12360 | But if judgement begin with the house of God, what shall become of the ungodly? |
A12360 | But thinke you they have nothing but Scripture? |
A12360 | But what did God command him to cry? |
A12360 | But what doe we meane, beloved, when mercy is come to send for judgement? |
A12360 | But when Nineveh had beleeved God, what did they secondly? |
A12360 | But who would have thought that such a Prophet should flie from the Lord, yea and then when he should doe him most service? |
A12360 | Can this bee good when worst men use it most? |
A12360 | Can you not wake while I speake to you? |
A12360 | Did you ever read of these veniall sinnes in the Scripture? |
A12360 | Doth any Dicer thinke he doth well? |
A12360 | For having heard of the true God, and though they lost their goods, having found who is all good, shall we( say they) destroy him that hath saved us? |
A12360 | I thinke that Countrey is here, for how many are here which have lost their eyes and their eares since they came hither? |
A12360 | If you should see a traitor sleepe on the hurdle, or men sleepe with meate in their mouthes, would you not marvell? |
A12360 | Is there any? |
A12360 | Shall we give him up to death unnecessarily, that hath brought us to life, and assured us to reigne with God in all glory everlasting? |
A12360 | Tell me what thinkest thou? |
A12360 | Thus wee have heard Ionahs charge to cry, But what should he cry? |
A12360 | What a cursed thing is this that turnes no man to good, which robs others,& beggars themselves? |
A12360 | What doth that argue? |
A12360 | What had hee offended the winds and waters that they bare him such enmity? |
A12360 | What hope of life then left? |
A12360 | What saith Christ? |
A12360 | What saith Paul? |
A12360 | Why should hee give pearles to dung- hill Cockes, nay, to very swine? |
A12360 | Why? |
A12360 | Yet Nineveh, Iericho, Sodome, nor Rome, have had halfe the Preaching that we have had, yet we are unthankfull too, then what have wee to looke for? |
A12360 | partly, that he should bee held that notorious wretch that had brought this woe? |
A12360 | what are they the better when they know him? |
A12360 | what would they doe with him on whom the lot should fall? |
A12360 | who keepes a good diet, and maketh his choise of holy exercises, godly companions, religious conferences? |
A12360 | who letteth or fetcheth out his corrupt bloud of pride, lust, covetousnesse, lest hee before? |
A12360 | who purgeth himselfe of his sinnes, lest hee bee sicke? |
A39381 | And David said unto Vriah, camest thou not from thy journey? |
A39381 | Art thou willing to be reconciled to this sinner? |
A39381 | Art thou willing to bind thy selfe over to satisfie my Divine Iustice in this soules behalfe? |
A39381 | He that hath often sent me away sad, shall such a soule as this find mercy? |
A39381 | If any man shall aske me the question, whether ever any meer man shall attaine unto the like measure of gifts and graces as Solomon did? |
A39381 | If he find mercy, if he be washed in thy Sonnes blood from this his guilt, then where is the unitie in us? |
A39381 | If that this Soules sinnes be pardoned, where then is the firmnesse of our Decree? |
A39381 | Is there a pardon by bloud granted, and doe you want nothing thereunto, but onely the Seale, to give assurance to that pardon? |
A39381 | It is God that justifieth: Who shall condemne? |
A39381 | Shall I give in my consent to have the sinnes of such a soule as this pardoned? |
A39381 | Shall he, I say, find pardon? |
A39381 | Shall therefore such a soule find mercy, who hath thus wilfully opposed me, and turned from me? |
A39381 | The glorious Trinitie, and the most glorious conformitie in our unitie? |
A39381 | What doe you here? |
A39381 | What, shall all our onenesse be dis- joyned for this soules sake? |
A39381 | Who shall lay any thing unto the charge of Gods chosen? |
A39381 | Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? |
A39381 | shall Tribulation, or Anguish or Persecution, or Famine, or Nakednesse, or Perill, or Sword? |
A39381 | why then didst thou not goe downe to thy house? |
A25359 | Anaxagoras being askt wherefore man was made? |
A25359 | And this is the divine elevation of David''s spirit, Whom have I in Heaven but thee? |
A25359 | And with what unwearied diligence do the Rivulets seek out the main Ocean? |
A25359 | Consider but the Eternal Joyes of that Place, and how heartless and dying is the best of worldly Pleasures? |
A25359 | Empedocles likewise being demanded why he desired to live in this world? |
A25359 | First, High in a rational expostulation, Whom have I in Heaven but thee? |
A25359 | First, Quem in Coelis? |
A25359 | First, Quem in coelis, Whom have I in Heaven? |
A25359 | For has the Holy Oyl been pour''d upon his head, and the Crown setled upon it by Divine Providence, which over- rules Nature? |
A25359 | For the blessed Trinity is a Christian''s portion, he is truly possest of nothing but the Deity, Whom have I besides thee? |
A25359 | He finds no sanctuary but in Heaven, no safe repose but in the Almighty, Whom have I in Heaven but thee? |
A25359 | How accomplished shall thy Honour and Glory be, when it shall come to thy turn to sing a gracious Hallelujah? |
A25359 | How few are in the right way of Gods prescriptions? |
A25359 | How then may I, or can I take full content or delight in any thing that is here below? |
A25359 | If the Frontispiece be so Glorious, What are those better Parts yet unseen? |
A25359 | If the Hangings be so precious, What must we think of the Room? |
A25359 | In his thoughts Heaven takes the precedency of Earth, Whom have I in Heaven but thee, O Lord? |
A25359 | In this vast Eternity you must Live; Why do you not let your Thoughts be more upon it? |
A25359 | Os homini sublime dedit, coelúmque tueri jussit — How hard a thing is it to keep the flame from pointing upwards? |
A25359 | Our sight now doth disperse and lose it self in the immensity of the extent, for who hath beheld it that he might demonstrate it? |
A25359 | Secondly, Quem praeter te? |
A25359 | Secondly, Quem praeter te? |
A25359 | Thirdly, Quis mihi? |
A25359 | Thirdly, Quis mihi? |
A25359 | This is the Psaltery that King David sings to, and is the true Ela of a Christian; Whom have I in Heaven but Thee? |
A25359 | What Ineffable Glory is in God, the Light of those Heavenly Tabernacles? |
A25359 | What doth God require now both from Prince and People, but the Acknowledgment of his Favour? |
A25359 | Who is for me? |
A25359 | Who is for me? |
A25359 | Who pleads my cause in Heaven? |
A25359 | Whom have I besides thee? |
A25359 | Whom have I besides thee? |
A25359 | Whom have I besides thee? |
A25359 | Whom have I in Heaven but thee? |
A25359 | Whom have I in Heaven? |
A25359 | Why should we strive with danger, what we may be ignorant of with safety? |
A13579 | 1. in these words: Of whom should I be afraid? |
A13579 | 10 He that chastiseth nations, shall he not correct? |
A13579 | 10 Therefore his people come to this point, when waters of a full cup are wrung out vnto them: 11 That they say: How? |
A13579 | 11 Who acknowledgeth the power of thy wrath, and of thy great indignation according to thy feare? |
A13579 | 12 What shall I render vnto the Lord? |
A13579 | 12. not to be deliuered to the appetite of his enemies: what doth it import but a motion for his deliuerance from them? |
A13579 | 13 Returne O Lord: how long? |
A13579 | 13 What man is he that desireth life, and loueth long daies to see good? |
A13579 | 13 Will I eate the flesh of buls, or drinke the blood of goates? |
A13579 | 16 But vnto the wicked, saith God: What hast thou to doe to declare mine ordinances, and to take my couenant in thy mouth? |
A13579 | 16 Who hath risen vp with me against the wicked? |
A13579 | 17 How pretious therefore are thy thoughts vnto me? |
A13579 | 19 How suddenly are they destroyed, perished and consumed fearfully? |
A13579 | 2 O Lord of hostes: how amiable are thy Tabernacles? |
A13579 | 2 Why doe the Kings of the earth band themselues, and the Princes consult together against the Lord, and against his Christ? |
A13579 | 20 Hath the throne of iniquitie fellowship with thee? |
A13579 | 21 Should not I hate them( O Lord) that hate thee? |
A13579 | 24 O Lord, how great are thy workes? |
A13579 | 24. where the Prophet speaketh thus: How great are thy workes? |
A13579 | 25 Whom haue I in heauen but thee? |
A13579 | 6 Wherefore should I feare in the euill daies, when the wicked shall compasse me about, as at my heeles? |
A13579 | 7 Whither should I goe from thy spirit? |
A13579 | 8 But now Lord, what waite I for? |
A13579 | 8 Vnderstand, O ye most vnwise among the people: and yee fooles, when will you be wise? |
A13579 | 9 He that planted the eare, shall he not heare? |
A13579 | And how great is the summe of them? |
A13579 | And therefore he reclaymeth himselfe thus in the 8. verse: But now Lord, what waite I for? |
A13579 | For the Prophet demaunding this question,( What man is he that desireth life?) |
A13579 | He that teacheth man knowledge ▪ shall he not know? |
A13579 | How therefore can it be said that his condition standeth established and fortified by the Lord? |
A13579 | How therefore shall the godlie man enioy the happie life promised vnto him? |
A13579 | Or he that formed the eye, shall he not see? |
A13579 | Or who hath taken my part against the workers of iniquitie? |
A13579 | THe Lord is my light and my deliuerance: whom shall I feare? |
A13579 | The Lord is the strength of my life: of whom should I be afraid? |
A13579 | WHy doe the nations rage, and the people plot vaine things? |
A13579 | Where in that interrogatorie speech of How long? |
A13579 | Where it is said: How pretious or excellent are thy thoughts vnto me? |
A13579 | Where the Prophet twice setteth downe this sentence vnder an interrogatorie forme of speech, thus: Of whom should I be afraid? |
A13579 | Would your Highnes be aduertised what sort of people they are, whom you ought specially to respect and esteeme? |
A13579 | Would your Highnes be informed what person it is, who onely is capable of a blessed and prosperous estate? |
A13579 | Would your Highnes bee presented with a picture of the miseries whereto both Prince and people are subiect? |
A13579 | Would your Highnes behold as it were in a glasse the singular aduantages and priuiledges of depending on the Lord? |
A13579 | Would your Highnes vnderstand what loue and regard you are to beare to the Sanctuarie and place of the Lords worship? |
A13579 | and should I not be incensed against those who rise vp against thee? |
A13579 | doth the mightie God know this? |
A13579 | or is there knowledge in the most high? |
A13579 | or whither should I flie from thy face? |
A41541 | But how soon were our Desires and Expectations blasted on a sudden? |
A41541 | Goodwin, Thomas, 1650?-1716? |
A41541 | Goodwin, Thomas, 1650?-1716? |

A41541 | Where can we find Ground for hope to settle upon, or from whence can we expect a Rescue? |
A41541 | Whither shall that Man go for Advice, whom God refuseth to lead by his Counsel? |
A40097 | And how did they this? |
A40097 | And what are we to think less of our Late Deliverance from Popery and Slavery, and as scaring a Prospect as ever People had? |
A40097 | Had we, I beseech you, made such Returns for our late so wonderful a one, as reasonably to hope for such another, should we again need it? |
A40097 | Is it possible, I say, we should not readily and cheerfully thus do for such a Deliverance as this? |
A40097 | Or of his Royal Father''s, Ye Fools, when will ye be Wise? |
A40097 | What shall I render unto the Lord for all His Benefits towards me? |
A40097 | What shall we say to this? |
A40097 | When will you be made sensible, how destructive to all Humane Society, the Principles are, on which you have founded your Flaming Loyalty? |
A40097 | Who can question this, that hath not forgot, how very short his Power was of a Vice- Roys in Ireland, and that Lauzune made all the Figure there? |
A37223 | 6. Who will shew us any good? |
A37223 | But how can the infinite incomprehensible God be said to be the Portion of a Creature? |
A37223 | But since we are allowed to love other things, how shall we know whether we make them our Portion or not? |
A37223 | But what a weakness or rather madness is it, to chuse that for ones portion, which he is sure to lose? |
A37223 | For how can any one say, that God is his Portion, when he prefer''s other things? |
A37223 | For what is any creature in comparison of the Creator? |
A37223 | For why? |
A37223 | How much a wiser and happier course shall we take, to secure to our selves that other Portion which is certain and perpetual? |
A37223 | If we would have him for our God, we must be his People; and how can that be made appear, but by being governed by his Laws? |
A37223 | Now what likelier means can there be to establish the heart, and make a man constant, than fixed and deliberate Choice? |
A37223 | Take away the Light, and what do all the Works of Art and Nature signifie? |
A37223 | Thy Testimonies have I claimed as my heritage for ever, and why? |
A37223 | What are the goods of this world, to that Immortal Kingdom which is above? |
A37223 | What is outward splendor or felicity, in comparison of the Favour of God, which is better than life it self? |
A37223 | What therefore must we do? |
A37223 | What tho my Friends are taken from me? |
A37223 | What tho my health be impair''d, and my body grown feeble, so that I can not enjoy my self as formerly? |
A37223 | What though my portion in the World be small? |
A37223 | When the Mind is engaged upon one Object, and so not at liberty to rove and wander after others? |
A37223 | can not he make us happy, unless the World also smile upon us? |
A37223 | how extremely miserable must his condition be, when he comes to have his Portion taken from him? |
A37223 | if God be our Portion, is it not enough? |
A37223 | is not he Alsufficient? |
A37223 | whether he has met with any Object, that is able to make him substantially happy, and to secure him in that happy State? |

A42051 | And what Returns shall we make to our King for this? |
A42051 | And what is it that makes this God an Enemy to any Nation, but those Epidemical Sins that overspread it? |
A42051 | And why else did he himself so earnestly Petition God to grant it? |
A42051 | But can the Wisest of men amongst us foresee what the end of our Divisions may prove? |
A42051 | See how very earnest St. Paul was for this, I the prisoner of the Lord beseech you; What to do? |
A42051 | That he tells them, Whereas there is amongst you envyings, strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men? |
A13083 | * Many say who will let us see good things? |
A13083 | * Whom have I in heaven but thee, and in the earth I have desired none with thee? |
A13083 | 12. b Quid dicit Apostole? |
A13083 | 15. b Quis haec capit, nisi qui spiritualiter sapit? |
A13083 | 52. b Quomodo enim beata vita ubi nec vita? |
A13083 | A question here ariseth, Whether there be a chief Ill as there is a chief good? |
A13083 | And Solomon himself thought this task both worthy of him, and hard for him to finde out, what was that good or happinesse of the sons of men? |
A13083 | And because they except slyly: It is true that none can pull his sheep out of his hand, yet, what if the sheep depart from him of their owne will? |
A13083 | And because through him only we take boldnesse to approch to God: for who durst commit himselfe to so great a Majestie without his mediation? |
A13083 | And shall we think that the blessings of the Gospel are set before us only to looke to without application? |
A13083 | And the Apostle met teares, with* What do yee weeping and breaking my heart? |
A13083 | And was it closed with this, Sonne, bee of good comfort, thy sins* are forgiven thee? |
A13083 | And what sweeter than that hony- combe sticking in his bowels, that is the fruit of his obedience for us, springing of his incomparable love? |
A13083 | And when S. Augustine asked a Pagan Philosopher, what was that way to be good? |
A13083 | And who stronger* than the Lion of the tribe of Judah? |
A13083 | Another errour about the fountain of happinesse is in the multitude: They seek it by ghesse, b Who will let us see good? |
A13083 | Besides, it is the main end wherefore we are brought into the world, and if a new born childe could speak and were asked, wherefore he is born? |
A13083 | Elkanah said to Hannah, Am I not worth ten children to thee? |
A13083 | For how can there be a blessed life, where there is no life? |
A13083 | For none can hurt us, but he that over commeth God, and who can overcome the Almightie g? |
A13083 | God and we were more distant than heaven and hell: and how should that fountain communicate its goodnes to us, but by that chanell of our own nature? |
A13083 | He put not his hand to labour, how should God open his hand to blesse? |
A13083 | How much more reason have we to crave of God, that he would give us happinesse to conceave Jesus Christ by faith, or else we perish? |
A13083 | If this be in the creature, how much more in the Creatour? |
A13083 | If we ask any man though he were a fool, would you be happy? |
A13083 | It may here be demanded: If affliction can stand with happines? |
A13083 | Moses was silent at the red sea, and yet God said to him,* why cryest thou? |
A13083 | Or how shall a man trust in himselfe to be happy, who can not guide his minde( his best part) from errour a? |
A13083 | Or is an heire so simple, as to content himself to know, that his father hath an heritage, and is not at all perswaded that it pertaineth to him? |
A13083 | That they deale expresly with God, Who am I to carrie thy message to thy people? |
A13083 | The third is the Rest of securitie: For what availeth quiet and refreshment, if the next houre wee might lose them? |
A13083 | This was* Balaams warsh wishing, his desires were so weak, that they pearced not his heart, how could they pearce the heaven? |
A13083 | Was your treatie in the termes of peace? |
A13083 | What is this, said one which shineth within me, and smiteth my heart without hurt; so that I both tremble and burne? |
A13083 | Where his will, and our weale, and so many intercessours concur, who can stay our happinesse? |
A13083 | Who laboured more than he, who* trode the winepresse of the Lord alone? |
A13083 | Why seek ye happinesse in us who have it not, but are worse then your selves? |
A13083 | a Quid autem eligamus, quod diligamus nist quo melius nihil invenimus? |
A43125 | Art thou happy in the favour of thy Prince, and perswaded thy self thou shalt be enrich''d by his bounty? |
A43125 | Dost thou depend upon the work of thy hands, or the contrivance of thy thoughts, thy bodily strength, or the labour of thy mind? |
A43125 | Dost thou go down to the Sea in Ships, and occupy thy business in great waters? |
A43125 | Dost thou promise thy self full Barns, and except encrease by the crop of thy fields? |
A16614 | 11. Who knoweth the power of thine anger? |
A16614 | Alas, what is eightie yeares to eternitie? |
A16614 | Alas, what sooner passeth away? |
A16614 | And how is that done? |
A16614 | And in the poorest cottage to find the greatest content? |
A16614 | And is it not easily taken away? |
A16614 | And is it not just so in the life of Man? |
A16614 | And is not it so with the life of man? |
A16614 | And why? |
A16614 | Are there not many meanes to bring vs vnto our ends? |
A16614 | Are they dayes, moneths, and yeares chastised? |
A16614 | Are they greatly afflicted? |
A16614 | Dost thou see and feele thy selfe to be mortall? |
A16614 | Dost thou see those thou dependest vpon to be such? |
A16614 | Dost thou thinke therefore that God that did loue thee, and that in his loue raised vp these and these meanes for thee, is mortall also and mutable? |
A16614 | Euen as many as there are to waken vs out of sleepe? |
A16614 | For if the Fountaine be bitter, how can the streames bee sweete? |
A16614 | For the fourth, how many errors are we subiect to in sleepe? |
A16614 | For why may not he that hath made vs of dust, turne vs againe vnto dust? |
A16614 | How ordinarie a thing is it for men in the most aboundance to bee least satisfied? |
A16614 | How then should we not thinke of our end? |
A16614 | If God the Fountaine of all Goodnesse afflict us with evill, what hope can wee haue of God from any other? |
A16614 | If the Almightie wound vs in his wrath, who can heale vs? |
A16614 | Is it not the shorter, the sweeter and fuller of contents it is? |
A16614 | Is it possible for condemned Malefactors, whilst they are going to the place of death, to forget wher- about they go? |
A16614 | Is not the longest life short? |
A16614 | Is therefore the hand of God vpon thee? |
A16614 | No: Though he change and alter the meanes, and therby would haue thee to feare and tremble before him; yet doe not thou for all that despaire? |
A16614 | Or if any shall heale one wound, shall wee not haue cause to feare two for that one? |
A16614 | So that would we mooue the Lord to Compassion in our misery, and to graunt our requests? |
A16614 | What is easier broken off then sleepe? |
A16614 | What more stable then the earth that neuer remooues out of his place, nor moues in his place? |
A16614 | What? |
A16614 | When we see any signes of Gods displeasure in the world;( as which way almost can wee turne our eyes but we see it? |
A16614 | Who are freer and more at libertie, and want least, then they that haue least? |
A16614 | Who are ordinarily more bound, more in trouble, haue greater vexation, and disquiet, then those that haue most libertie and aboundance? |
A16614 | Who knoweth the 〈 ◊ 〉 of thine anger; and of thy wrath according to thy feare? |
A16614 | Whose life is longer then theirs in seeming, that liue least at ease? |
A16614 | Whose life passeth sooner away or swifter then theirs that haue most comforts and sweetest? |
A16614 | even the very prints of death, how his footing is in euery Towne, yea, in euery House?) |
A16614 | how short also are the pleasures and sorrowes that are in sleepe? |
A16614 | — How long? |
A30589 | And then in the fifth place, Where there are multitudes coming in, will there not be a great deal of dross and filthiness? |
A30589 | And why? |
A30589 | Are there any false sayings of God? |
A30589 | As if God should say to any wretched Man or Woman, Hast not thou come to the Word, and heard the Excellency of my Son set forth unto thee? |
A30589 | But Secondly, Is there a time that Jerusalem shall be made as the Praise of the whole Earth? |
A30589 | But now, If you ask me when shall these things be? |
A30589 | By that that hath outwardly appeared, who would think that a few People that were contemptible to the World, were God''s pleasant Portion? |
A30589 | IN the fourth place, the time when Jerusalem shall be made the Praise of the whole Earth, what shall be done then? |
A30589 | If we should examine and see what David was, how short should we come? |
A30589 | In the 15 verse, For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the World, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead? |
A30589 | It ca n''t be meant of two men, because they were to prophesie 1260 Years; but what made them go on in that mournful condition? |
A30589 | Now I would but know when was this? |
A30589 | Now doth it appear to the World that the Church is the peculiar treasure of God? |
A30589 | Now if you say, How can these things be? |
A30589 | The force of the Argument is thus; Saith God, Why, was not my Church, and Ordinances there, more glorious than their false Worship? |
A30589 | When they went to build the Walls of Jerusalem again, they scoff at them; And what doe these feeble Jews? |
A30589 | When will God do this? |
A30589 | Who hath heard such a thing? |
A30589 | Why is it said here, The Lord God of the holy Prophets? |
A30589 | You will say, Are they not now? |
A30589 | You will say, How can we know the Heart? |
A30589 | You will say, What are those? |
A30589 | You will say, What is the Wedding Garment by which the Saints are prepared to meet with Christ? |
A30589 | You will say, are these things so, are they so indeed? |
A30589 | You will say, why then have we the Scriptures? |
A30589 | and hast not thou had the glory of God in the Gospel shining before thine Eyes? |
A30589 | and then what must it be in Heaven, when it comes to be the thing it self in glory? |
A30589 | and yet wilt thou turn after base things, to satisfie thy flesh, and mind nothing else but that? |
A30589 | but how doth it appear then that the Church is the dearly Beloved of Gods Soul? |
A30589 | for what pleasure is there in the Earth? |
A30589 | hast not thou heard of those blessed things that are revealed in the Doctrine of Grace? |
A30589 | may some say, I am a poor weak Christian, a poor Body, I am able to do but little, I may Sigh to God, but what are my prayers worth? |
A30589 | shall the Earth be made to bring forth in one day, or shall a Nation be born at once? |
A30589 | shall the Saints after the day of Judgment have a new Earth, and live upon the Earth here? |
A30589 | was not my Temple more glorious than their Images? |
A30589 | was this ever in the time of the Gospel? |
A30589 | what time was this? |
A30589 | when shall Jerusalem be made the praise of the whole Earth? |
A30589 | where have we almost any that may parallel with David? |
A30589 | who hath seen such things? |
A39386 | And if such men go on without check in this manner; What will become of the Honour of God at present? |
A39386 | And is not the Sacriledge as great in defrauding him of his time, and the homage belonging to it? |
A39386 | But, what is this to Eli? |
A39386 | Dare we lye under so heavy a Charge? |
A39386 | How great ● Encouragement is this to proceed? |
A39386 | How will his Authority and Worship be upheld, or his Memorial be preserved among men? |
A39386 | Is God so highly Honoured by such Endeavours? |
A39386 | Since they are two circumstances of one rank, can any one tell me, why Hallowed time shou''d not be as sacred as an Hallowed place? |
A39386 | What Conscience then should they make of such a great Prize in their hands? |
A39386 | What a strange turn is here in 〈 ◊ 〉 affairs of our Israel? |
A39386 | Who dares but Offer himself? |
A43279 | And what absurdity is there in all this? |
A43279 | But how, I pray, after this manner, will the Effect be posterior to, or after its cause? |
A43279 | Dost thou therefore assert that matter can not be Created? |
A43279 | Dost thou therefore conclude positively, that out of nothing, nothing can be Created? |
A43279 | Or what is Creation, according to thy Hypothesis or doctrinal Supposition? |
A43279 | This is all I ask in the first place, Whether dost thou deny all Creation, properly so called? |
A43279 | What therefore dost thou Reply to the rest? |
A43279 | that it is done out of Nothing? |
A15400 | 3. much lesse in Salomons thousand wiues and concubines: what mysterie lay hid in that? |
A15400 | 3. the negatiue particle in the last clause, lo, is not to be read here interrogatiuely: had there not beene a greater slaughter? |

A15400 | If I through Beelzebub cast out deuills, by whome doe your children cast them out? |
A15400 | Iunius readeth thus, with an interrogation: wouldest thou not while I liue, wouldest thou not shew toward me this mercie of the Lord, that I die not? |
A15400 | May not the like be said of meate, quale bonum quod impedit ieiunium? |
A15400 | Next vnto his anger followeth his feare: he beginneth to be iealous of his kingdome, saying, What can he haue more, sauing the kingdome? |

A15400 | Of the greatnes of the sinne of Eli his sonnes, vpon these words, Who shall plead for him? |
A15400 | Of the meaning of these words, Who is their father? |
A15400 | Of these words of Eliab to Dauid, With whome hast thou left those few sheepe in the wildernes? |
A15400 | One may depart from their right if they will: if then the wife will consent, that her husband may marie an other, why is it not lawfull? |
A15400 | Patriarks; excepting Ioseph and Beniamin, which were of Rachel the principall and proper wife of Iaakob: were they begotten in adulterie? |
A15400 | So also the Prophet Malachie, Did not he make one? |
A15400 | Some giue this sense: is it not a common brute in euery ones mouth? |
A15400 | The word of a Prince should be as the law of the Medes and Persians, not to alter: how much more should their oath be firme? |
A15400 | What manner of woman Saul would haue sought out for him, and why? |
A15400 | What, shall they then liue of that altar, which they doe not serue? |
A15400 | Whether Samuel feared to doe, as the Lord commanded him, saying, How can I goe? |
A15400 | Who feedeth a flocke, and eateth not of the milke of the flocke? |
A15400 | Will the Lords of Keilah deliuer me vp into his hands? |
A15400 | and the Chalde insinuateth so much, reading thus; is it not a word, which I haue spoken? |
A15400 | as Samuel saith, See you not him, whome the Lord hath chosen, that there is none like him among all the people: how are the people guiltie of sinne? |
A15400 | but here the words are inuerted, which stand thus in the originall, what saith thy soule? |
A15400 | how much more carefull, circumspect, and vigilant ought the dispenser of things spirituall to be? |
A15400 | how then can that which is in it selfe, holy, honourable, and vndefiled, defile a man, and make him vnfit for holy things? |
A15400 | nunquid de eo, cui non serviunt? |
A15400 | seeing their request stoode with the will of God? |

A15400 | yet had he abundance of spirit: and wherefore one? |
A43566 | By way of protection and defence, the Kings heart is in the hand of the Lord, and who shall tear it thence? |
A43566 | David, when he saw the Angel that smote the people, cryed out, Lo I have sinn''d, I have done wickedly, but these sheep what have they done? |
A43566 | What may not we hope for from the Son of a Martyr? |
A43566 | What will not water overflow? |
A43566 | Would we know how God will deal with the Nation? |
A43566 | and what bounds can be set them? |
A43566 | and what will not our thoughts bear down? |
A43566 | as though some invisible Daemon took delight to hiss us into Quarrels? |

A19413 | Goe, and tell my seruant Dauid, Thus saith the Lord: shalt thou build me an House for my dwelling? |
A19413 | Haue they not turned Turkes, Papists, Athiests, and what not, for Lands, liuing, honour, and credit?) |
A19413 | I said also, that which you doe, is not good; ought you not to walke in the feare of God, for the reproach of the Heathen our enemies? |

A29931 | but flying away with all possible speed? |
A29931 | but give them up, most mercilesly, to depend upon their Prayers for Daily Bread? |
A29931 | if he Feed them, what just reason wee account our selves of an higher Estimate with him then they? |
A29931 | or at best, to propose them to themselves for Trumpets of their own Designes? |
A29931 | or else these Trumpets must give, I say not as the Apostle, an uncertain, but no sound at all? |
A29931 | purposely excog ● tated to keep Men in awe? |

A40676 | And why should men admire shadowes, painted fires, which flame, but warme not? |
A40676 | But now being in so great want as hee was at this time, why doth he preferre so poore a Petition vnto God, who is so rich in mercie? |
A40676 | But what is the reason why Iacob here voweth to giue vnto God rather the Tenth then any other part of his goods? |
A40676 | If the Lord be their God, where is his feare? |

A40995 | Alas,( ye will say) we stand low, what can we doe? |
A40995 | Fawcet, Samuel, 1600 or 1601- 1662? |
A40995 | Fawcet, Samuel, 1600 or 1601- 1662? |
A40995 | How can it be quiet, seeing the Lord hath given it a charge against Askelon, and against the Sea shore? |
A40995 | How few mourners are there in Jerusalem, for all the abominations that are committed in the middest thereof? |
A40995 | How few, how cold, how formall are our Prayers, for a happy successe of those great affaires that are in hand? |
A40995 | How little doe we in these stirring times, towards the carrying on of the great worke of Beformation? |
A40995 | Now Ireland calls for your helpe, the fire is begunne there, and who knows whether it may burne, if it be not timely quenched? |
A40995 | O Lord God, cease I beseech thee, by whom shall Jacob arise, for he is small? |
A40995 | O thou Sword of the Lord; how long will it beere thou be quiet? |
A40995 | Oh, consider it, are there none such among you? |
A40995 | Thou sayest thou art no Papist, but art thou not an Atheist, one that lives as if there were no God in the world? |
A40995 | Thou sayest, thou art no Schismaticke, but art thou not a Scoffer at Religion, and a jearer at those who walke in that way which is called holy? |

A40995 | and minde nothing, lay nothing to heart, put to no hand to helpe the common cause? |
A40995 | as the Lord said to Baruch, Behold I am plucking up this whole Land, and seekest thou great things to thy selfe? |
A40995 | saith Joram: the answer is, What peace? |
A40995 | shall they lodge there till they eate out our hearts? |
A44702 | Call ye Hunger and Rags Felicity; and are we to thinke our selves so much nearer Happinesse as we are nearer starving? |
A44702 | What a Treasure, what a Mine is that Text? |
A44702 | [ 7], 40 p. Printed by Henry Hall,[ Oxford: 1644?] |
A43551 | And in this place may be asked in the Eunuch''s words, Of whom here speaks the Prophet, either of himself, or of some other? |
A43551 | And why all this? |
A43551 | Et quemodo dicit, Benedictus Dominus? |
A43551 | Et, De quo loquitur Propheta, vel populus fidelis? |
A43551 | For, what particular is there in all this kindeness which is not marvellous, mirabile in oculis nostris, as marvellous in our eyes as it was in his? |
A43551 | Hath the Lord need of us that we should bless him? |
A43551 | Num illi opus est benedictione nostra? |
A43551 | Shall then the Workman play, and the Watchman sleep? |
A43551 | The wisdom of the wise( saith Paul) is it not foolishness with the Lord? |
A43551 | What means the Prophet( saith St. Hierom) by this form of speech? |
A43551 | What then? |
A43551 | what infinite throngs of people did run out to see him? |
A43269 | But what if in the 4 th place the matter be purely indifferent? |
A43269 | But who sball be judge ef that? |
A43269 | For with that face can a man invoke that Mercy which he hath expressly renounced? |
A43269 | In order to give answer to the 2 d. query, how far such an oath doth extend? |
A43269 | Lord, who shall abide in thy Tabernacle? |
A43269 | What if a man swears, and doth not intend to swear? |
A43269 | What oath can then be too hard for men of this persuasion to swallow? |
A43269 | Whether an oath taken in words so comprehensive, doth oblige to the performance of every Statute? |
A43269 | Whether every one that hath thus sworn is guilty of a rash oath, as having sworn to more then he knows? |
A43269 | how just is it, that he who hath thus disclaimed Gods favour, should be forsaken when he stands most in need of it? |
A43269 | that he who hath thus abused the Holy Name of God, should not be heard when calleth upon that Name? |
A43269 | that is, who shall be accounted worthy to be a member of thy faithfull congregation here, and to be admitted into thy presence hereafter? |
A43269 | what can be more absurd then to, suppose that both these sins may be taken off, by adding a third sin of Hypocrisy? |
A43269 | who shall dwell in thy holy hill? |

A19701 | The question is, whether we will speake, as the holy Ghost doeth, or no? |
A19701 | The virulent tongue, doeth not that touch too? |

A19701 | They that touch their Crowne and dignitie, their Regalia, shall wee say they touch them not? |

A45536 | was there no zeale, no jealousie for Gods honour in these holy Martyrs and Saints of God? |
A45564 | And should not this be considered? |
A45564 | And thus, Who ever perished being righteous? |
A45564 | But shall it be so alwaies? |
A45564 | For( tell me) is it not a mercy to be put into a safe harbour, before the stormy tempest arise? |
A45564 | How much better is it to spend my daies in pleasure, and indulge to my lusts whilest I live, since I can but die at last? |
A45564 | I am afraid such thoughts as these do sometimes arise in the minds of men: How dieth the wise man even as the fool, the righteous as the wicked? |
A45564 | If it shall be now enquired in what notion this term righteous was attributed to them, and may be affirmed of every godly man? |
A45564 | If you shall ask, why dying, which is only a separation of the soul from the body, not an annihilation of either, is called a perishing? |
A45564 | Nay, it is not only a losse, but( as hath been already expressed) it is a dolefull presage of ruine: And shall it not be laid to heart? |
A45564 | Though the Sun is not much observed by us whilest it shineth, yet if it be in an Eclipse, who doth not take notice of it? |
A45564 | To get into the House, before the thunder and lightning rain, and hail fall? |
A45564 | We may observe among beasts,( even swine) a sympathy; so that when one is killed, the rest are troubled: And shall there not be among men? |
A45564 | What matters it for mens hatred, so we have Heavens love? |
A45564 | Will not the Judge of all the world do right? |
A45564 | Will there not be a Reward for the righteous? |

A43769 | 6. Who is this that cometh out of the Wilderness, like Pillars of smoak, perfumed with Mirrhe and Frankinsense, with all powders of the Merchant?] |
A43769 | 6. Who''s this presented to our eyes, Who from the Desart comes, Who does like smoak in pillars rise, Perfum''d with fragrant Gums? |
A43769 | And do ye thus requite the Lord, For all his kindness sake? |
A43769 | And he shall say, where are their Gods, What is become of those? |
A43769 | And ye, O ye holy Angels, when ye behold my Church, what shall ye see in her? |
A43769 | Behold thou art fair, my beloved, yea pleasant,] q. d. Dost thou commend My beauty? |
A43769 | Has He not as a Father been, Who thee redeem''d and bought? |

A43769 | Is not their stay their greatest gain, That they returning on the slain, A greater booty may obtain, And every man a Girl or twain? |

A45673 | I Or else, what meant the Multitudes of Men and Horses in most Parts of England? |
A45673 | Is not this then a meer Jesuitism, and a double- refined Treason, for any of these Conspirators to pretend themselves of the Church of England? |
A45673 | Or in England under colour of Religion, and nothing in it of the Solemn League and Covenant? |
A45673 | Such a Train of Mischief to be hatched in any part of the World and no Scotch Treachery intermingled with it? |
A45673 | What Dangers are they in that are in this Case? |
A45673 | Where will these Wretches appear hereafter? |
A26784 | ''T is the Inquiry joyn''d with Conviction, by St. James, From whence come Wars and Fightings among you? |
A26784 | ( no artifice of words could fully express it) how great is the sum of them? |
A26784 | An non paena satis est te non amare? |
A26784 | And have not obeyed the Voice of my Teachers, nor inclined mine Ear to them that instructed me? |
A26784 | And how few have so firm a Vertue, as to break the twisted Temptations of Pleasure and Profit? |
A26784 | And how heavy will their Doom be? |
A26784 | And how many that are surrounded with the Celestial Beams of the Gospel, are as impure and impenitent, as those in the black Night of Paganism? |
A26784 | And is it not a disparagement to our Reason to admire Shadows, and be proud of transient Vanities? |
A26784 | And is it not miserable folly to pride themselves in secular Greatness, that is so insufficient to prevent the worst Evils? |
A26784 | But how few in hearing them, have found their Souls that were lost in the corrupting Vanities of this World? |
A26784 | But suppose they continue with Men here, can they preserve the Body from Diseases and Death, or the Soul from oppressing Sorrows? |
A26784 | Can the World prevent my doom to Hell, or release me from it? |
A26784 | Come they not from your Lusts that war in your Members? |
A26784 | Even Pharaoh that was a bold Atheist in his Prosperity, and stood upon high terms with Moses, saying, Who is the Lord, that I should obey him? |
A26784 | How confounding will the shame of Sinners be in the universal confluence of Angels and Saints, and the presence of the glorious God, the Judg of all? |
A26784 | How destructive, how penal is Prosperity to such graceless Souls? |
A26784 | How fearful and hopeless is the state of such a sinner? |
A26784 | How long ye simple ones will ye love simplicity? |
A26784 | How many Diseases would be cur''d in time, if they threatned present Death? |
A26784 | How many faint- hearted Persons have thus betrayed the Son of God again, and their Consciences, and their Religion? |
A26784 | How plain and convincing are the words of our Saviour; What will it profit a Man, if he gain the whole World, and lose his own Soul? |
A26784 | I hearkned, and heard, saith the Prophet Jeremy, but they spake not aright; no Man repented of his Wickedness, saying, What have I done? |
A26784 | If my Endeavours are all for the Earth, what remains for Heaven? |
A26784 | If the Conscience, that should be as Salt to preserve the Soul from tainting Pleasures, be corrupted, wherewith can it be restored? |
A26784 | If the Salt hath lost its savour, wherewith shall it be salted? |
A26784 | In homine optimum quid est? |
A26784 | In tenebris& lubrico qua is? |
A26784 | Now, can that be our Happiness that is of such an uncertain tenure, that every hour may be snatch''d from us, or we from it? |
A26784 | Our Saviour says, If the Light that is in us be Darkness, how great is that Darkness? |
A26784 | Tenebras solum quis non horreat? |
A26784 | The Soul retires from the World, and makes a solemn enquiry; For what End am I created? |
A26784 | This was the reason of that stinging Reproach of Moses to Israel, Do ye thus requite the Lord, O foolish People and unwise? |
A26784 | Thus the Apostle speaks, What Fruit had you of those things whereof you are now ashamed, for the end of those things is death? |
A26784 | Thus the Divine Wisdom with passion reproaches wretched Sinners, How long ye simple Ones, will ye love simplicity? |
A26784 | What a spectacle of Compassion was Sampson in the slavery of the Philistines? |
A26784 | What can more provoke the jealous God? |
A26784 | What hope is there of reducing haughty Scorners to the Obedience of the Gospel? |
A26784 | What is Man that thou art mindful of him? |
A26784 | What is a vanishing shadow of Reputation, against an eternal inestimable weight of Glory? |
A26784 | Who will sow the barren Sands, or water dead Plants, or give a rich Cordial to a furious Patient that will spill it on the ground? |
A26784 | Will the remembrance of the Enjoyments here, afford any refreshment in Everlasting Burnings? |

A26784 | and Fools hate knowledg? |
A26784 | for what do I consume my Time? |
A26784 | how disorderly and ruinous will the course be? |
A26784 | how easily, how frequently and dangerously do they fall, and both defile and wound themselves? |
A26784 | lubri cum solum quis non caveat? |
A26784 | or the Son of Man that thou regardest him? |
A26784 | or, what shall a Man give in exchange for his Soul? |
A26784 | that Mercy was so often and so rebelliously resisted? |
A26784 | ubi pedem figis? |
A26784 | what do I prepare, what shall attend me, what shall I meet in the next State? |
A38021 | After this sort do we bemoan our selves under Gods judgments; but where is the man among us, that cryes out of his sins, his sins? |
A38021 | And are there not as sad breakings out of sin, are there not fouler blemishes and spots upon every wicked man? |
A38021 | Art thou so sensible of thy sin, that thou hatest it with a perfect hatred, and even loathest thy self for the commission of it? |
A38021 | Ask thy self thus, How should I bear it, if God should cast me on a bed of sickness? |
A38021 | But there is balm in Gilead, there is a Physitian there: Whether should we go but unto Christ? |
A38021 | Can the Aethiopian change his skin, or the Leopard his spots? |
A38021 | Dost thou then desire to be delivered from thy body of sin? |
A38021 | Hast thou not procured this unto thy self, in that thou hast forsaken the Lord thy God? |
A38021 | Have not some wretches been seized on and apprehended by death, in the very acts of uncleanness and loose de bauchery? |
A38021 | Have you not heard of some that have swom out of the world in excessive drink, they being( in the worst sense of all) dead drunk? |
A38021 | How many Plague- sores doth the sinner carry about with him? |
A38021 | How many are there that take a course to damne themselves? |
A38021 | How sad must their condition be which thus leave this world and appear in another? |
A38021 | How scared and affrighted are their souls in their entrance into that other state? |
A38021 | How timorous are we and dejected, at the thoughts of the Plagues approaching near us? |
A38021 | I have received good things at Gods hand, how shall I do to receive evill things? |
A38021 | Is any among you afflicted? |
A38021 | Is it a body of death unto thee? |
A38021 | Is it heavy, uneasie, and burthensome to thee? |
A38021 | Methinks God speaks to us in some such language; What? |
A38021 | Sh ● ll there be any evill in a City, and the Lord hath not done it? |
A38021 | The Prophet Ieremy gives the reason,[ The heart is deceitfull above all things, and desperately wicked, who can know it?] |
A38021 | The ways of the wicked grieve God and his Holy Spirit, and shall they not grieve every good man? |
A38021 | Thou being thus prepared before- hand, and answering affirmatively to that question which our Saviour put to the diseased;[ Wil t thou be made whole?] |
A38021 | Was not Senacherib slain when he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god? |
A38021 | We are greedy of mercies, but how backward are we to acknowledg the receipt of them, and to walk worthy of them? |
A38021 | What are those curses and oaths which I hear from the swearers mouth? |
A38021 | What are those dismall characters and worser sort of Carbuncles in the intemperate person and common drunkard? |
A38021 | What are those lamentable and apparent marks, those blows and bruises which oppression and cruelty are the cause of? |
A38021 | What are those swellings and tumours of pride? |
A38021 | What cryings and complainings are there in our streets? |
A38021 | What if God should take all my outward enjoyments from me, stripping me naked and turning me so into the wide world? |
A38021 | What if I should go down the wind, if my credit should crack and my friends fail me? |
A38021 | What maner of persons ought you to be in all holy conversation and Godlinesse? |
A38021 | What shall I render unto the Lord for all his benefits towards me? |
A38021 | When I have brought them into straits, can they by their own power extricate themselves out of them? |
A38021 | Who knows, but that these present calamities are prologues and presages of far worser? |
A38021 | You have a Bill brought in every fortnight, to tell you how many dye of the former; but alas, how many souls every week perish by the latter? |
A38021 | can they prev ● nt that affliction which I have allotted them? |
A38021 | does he think to take any Antidote against the fatall Dose which Caesars hand shall give him? |
A38021 | else what mean those palpable risings of lust and uncleanness? |
A38021 | how many ways doth a naughty heart discover it self? |
A38021 | shall poor mortalls think to controll me? |
A45645 | Again, what doth Mr. Hobbs mean by the Will''s being the Necessary Cause of Voluntary Actions? |
A45645 | And when one wrote to him on this Point, alledging, that if the Will were not free, All Vice would be excusable; he Answers, Quid inde a? |
A45645 | But how ridiculously Vain is all this, according to these Principles? |
A45645 | But if this be spoken of the Will, what will it signifie? |
A45645 | But will not such a Principle as this be the most mischievous and dangerous to Mankind that can possibly be? |
A45645 | Can any Man help being of that Opinion he embraces? |
A45645 | Doth it not open a Door to all the Wickedness that can possibly enter into the Heart of Man to commit? |
A45645 | For why do they write Books, and spin out such Elaborate Treatises as they fansie they do? |
A45645 | Is not the Magistrate as much necessitated to Punish as they are to Offend? |
A45645 | and if he hath absolutely necessitated them to do just as they do? |
A45645 | and the Government to make Laws as they are to break them? |
A45645 | and why should they set themselves up above others, and expect Praise and Glory for their fine Thoughts and elevated Notions? |
A45645 | they can''t sure be so Ignorant as to expect to convince any Body, or to Proselyte any one over to their Opinion? |
A45545 | And again, who heard such a thing as this? |
A45545 | And what lesse was the restoration of the Jews, who were no way able to rescue themselves, nor yet the Babylonians disposed to let them go? |
A45545 | If you shall ask, Why the Prophets were so bold as to affix Gods Name to their Messages? |
A45545 | It is a Question moved by the Schools, Whether God can make such a creature as should be able to create another? |
A45545 | Peace and government, for what peace where there is no government? |
A45545 | Peace then would be first sought for in reference to the State, by an harmonious Union ▪ What other is the State but a politicall body? |
A45545 | Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day, or shall a Nation be born at once? |
A45545 | To the right understanding whereof, the Question would be made and resolved, whose lips are here meant? |
A45545 | To this tend those expressions in this Prophet, Who are those that flee as the clouds, and as the doves to the windows? |
A45545 | We finde this Prophet complaining, Who hath beleeved our report? |
A45545 | What room then for infidelity when we have such sure promises? |
A45545 | When Amasiah wished to David, Peace, Peace be to thee, what did he thereby intimate, but all kinde of prosperity? |
A45545 | Who hath seen such things? |
A45545 | and what other peace can be desirable in a body, than an union of the head with the members, and the members one with another? |
A45545 | and yet this was effected: Who would have expected that Abraham and Sarah being stricken in years should have a childe? |
A45646 | Accordingly Vaninus tells us, That Protagoras used to say, Si Deus non est unde igitur Bona? |
A45646 | For can any Man produce a Law that ever obtained universally against paying Adoration and Worship to the Deity? |
A45646 | Is not such a Mans whole course of Action, a continual state of War in his own Breast, and a constant Contradiction of his Reason and his Conscience? |
A45646 | What an unexpressible wretchedness would Mankind be in, if Hobbs his State of Nature were in Being amongst us? |
A45646 | Will Men take their Measures to judge of Human Nature only from the Monstrosities of it, from the worst and most stupid Parts of Mankind? |
A45646 | Will not a General Rule stand its Ground tho''there be a few Exceptions against it? |
A45646 | against Mens honouring their Parents, or against their being Just, Good, Merciful, and Righteous in their Dealings with one another? |
A45646 | and prove our greatest Support under any Troubles and Afflictions? |
A09268 | All these, or the most of these, I am sure, were Servants: For who used to beare burdens, but the Servants? |
A09268 | An Deus posteros puniat ob Majorum suorum flagiti ●? |
A09268 | And did not the 70 know what 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 meant? |

A09268 | And is not water as unmercifull an element as fire? |
A09268 | And must wee suffer our Oxe to sticke in the mire, as a rod from God? |
A09268 | And so who doubts, but it is lawfull then to labour? |
A09268 | And were not the Septuagint Iewes? |
A09268 | And were not these in fault? |
A09268 | And why? |
A09268 | And why? |
A09268 | But did not Daniel afterwards eate? |
A09268 | But doth not 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 in Chaldee properly signifie a Freeman? |
A09268 | But was this Feast disused since Iosua''s time? |
A09268 | But what if these did it onely to testifie their joy and exultation? |
A09268 | But what if wee prove out of this very Chapter, That Nehemiah did contest with all, Servants and all? |
A09268 | But what needes this, sith a reconciliation is at hand; that this prohibition is to be construed with the exception still of necessity? |
A09268 | But what say the 70 here? |
A09268 | By whom? |
A09268 | Did none refuse to pay their portions but the Rulers? |
A09268 | Did not the Church now want a rule of certainty? |
A09268 | Did not they best know how to give the right meaning of their owne Language? |

A09268 | Doth not 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, naturally and Grammatically signifie Freemen? |
A09268 | Else, why did Nehemiah contest with them? |
A09268 | Except such and such Freemen that were fit for her designe, were not to be made acquainted with that horrid plot? |
A09268 | For had not Christ and his Apostles the holy Ghost? |
A09268 | For who be they that in all trades, places, markets, faires, sell? |
A09268 | Full and whole? |
A09268 | How so? |
A09268 | How then doth he here say, Vntill there stand up a Priest with Vrim and Thummim? |
A09268 | How then doth the Text oppose them to Freemen, and make them as two severall distinct Branches? |
A09268 | Is it not derived by Etymology from the Hebrew 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉? |
A09268 | Is it not in your eyes in comparison of that, as nothing? |
A09268 | Is it not now a simple piece of Logicke, thus to argue? |
A09268 | Nay: Is not more, and more full revelation promised in the second Temple, than in the first? |
A09268 | Not the servants as well as the Master? |
A09268 | Our forefathers? |
A09268 | Question is made, whether onely they of Iudah and Benjamin returned? |
A09268 | Should such a man as I flie? |
A09268 | THe question is, Whether in case a man marry an Amorite, now an infidell; he be to put her away by vertue of this Law? |
A09268 | The Question is, whether in case a man marry an Amorite, now an Infidell, he be to put her away by vertue of this Law? |

A09268 | Well then; Can any man once imagine, that men of fame and renowne onely did put their money to hire? |
A09268 | Were not the Commons many of them Freemen now? |
A09268 | What English is this? |
A09268 | What evill thing is this that yee doe, and prophane the Sabbath? |
A09268 | What had the Freemen to doe with her practise? |
A09268 | What needs then to urge the servants to doe that, which of themselves they would faine doe? |
A09268 | What questions? |
A09268 | What will you doe now? |

A09268 | Where is all this boasting then? |
A09268 | Whom doth Nehemiah reprove? |
A09268 | Yet how often in the old Testament is it used to signifie a Ruler in the State? |
A09268 | [ Remember not,] against whom? |
A09268 | and did not our God bring all this evill upon us and upon this Citie? |
A09268 | and did not they live under the second Temple? |
A09268 | and perhaps famish? |
A09268 | and who is there that being as I am, would goe into the Temple to save his life? |
A09268 | and yet doe you say, the Argument thence is of no force? |
A09268 | did he carry away all the Freemen? |
A09268 | doth not that Chaldee come by etymology frō the Hebrew word, and doth the Chaldee usually signifie Freemen? |
A09268 | doth not the Lord threaten it as a curse, that he will take away? |
A09268 | his crucifying and death continued for the space of 3. yeares and a halfe( than which, what more absurd?) |
A09268 | how doe you see it now? |

A47445 | No great Cure was ever perfected without putting the Patient to some pain; and then why should we expect it? |
A47445 | What business had he with a standing Army, or numerous Troops of Dragoons, but to employ them as Missionaries, to Convert his Heretical Subjects? |
A47445 | Who would not within these last Three Years have given one half of his Estate to save the other? |
A47440 | For what else could have brought such different Interests and Judgments to acquiesce in the conclusion? |

A45567 | And would you know the reason of all this? |
A45567 | Hast thou Oh God given me my life as a prey, and shall not I give it thee as a sacrifice? |
A45567 | How should every one of us upon the hearing of this sad blow, entertaine these or the like serious thoughts? |
A45567 | If any shall be curiously inquisitive by what meanes the Bush was thus preserved? |
A45567 | In great love to my Soul thou didst deliver me from the dreadfull burning, and shall I still tempt thy patience by grievous sinning? |
A45567 | This day, was then the last day of life to many, who might else in probability have been now alive; and why may not this day be my last? |
A45567 | Well doth the Prophet say of them, they will not see, since they could not but see, did they not wilfully blinde their eyes? |
A45567 | What more probable, then that a Bush on fire should be turn''d into ashes? |
A45567 | Why then( on the one hand) doe the Heathen rage? |
A45567 | Why( on the other hand) should the Israel of God despond? |
A45567 | and yet our Blessed Saviours words are expresse, he maketh his Sun to rise: what more naturall to man then to move? |
A45567 | did you not vow to God( if he would rescue you out of that danger) thankfulnesse, repentance, obedience, and shall such obligations be cancelled? |
A45567 | whence should the servants of God feare destruction, where need they doubt protection, as being under his armes, who is over all? |
A45748 | 3. vers 14. Who would not then believ him? |
A45748 | 356. sub quaestione, How and when the Citie of Rome was taken again? |

A45748 | But which street? |
A45748 | Here the question is, whether these words are to bee understood of the friends, or of the enemies of the Professors of the true Religion? |
A45748 | How long shall it bee to the end of these wonders? |
A45748 | In the eighth chapter of Matthew vers 29. these spirits do expostulate with the Lord Jesus, saying: What have wee to do with thee? |
A45748 | Shall hee not avenge his own elect, which crie daie and night unto him, though hee bear long with them? |
A45748 | The dead bodies of the Witnesses in this street? |

A27042 | 4. Who is it but your selves that hath brought you under Gods displeasure? |
A27042 | 5. Who wounded Conscience, and hath raised all your doubts and fears? |
A27042 | 6. Who is it but your selves that hath brought you so neer the gulf of misery? |
A27042 | And may I not freely tell you, that God should have the precedencie? |
A27042 | And must not Magistrates as well govern by their lives, as by their Laws? |
A27042 | And now I beseech you all consider; is it not better to Remember your sins on earth, then in hell? |
A27042 | Are death and Judgement matters of less moment? |
A27042 | Are those men likely to take care of the happiness of so many thousands, that will still be so careless of themselves? |
A27042 | Are your sins so small, so venial, so few, that you can find no employment on them for your memories? |
A27042 | Consider the loathsome nature of your sins, and how then can you choose but loath your selves? |
A27042 | Did not he make the Law that doth command it; professing that none shall see his face without it? |
A27042 | Do they loath themselves for all their sins, who loath those that will not do as they? |
A27042 | Do they loath themselves that are readier to justifie all their sins, or at least extenuate them, then humbly confess them? |
A27042 | Do you loath your selves for all this, as being vile in your own eyes, and each man say, What a wretch was I? |
A27042 | Enquire then, whether there be none among you that live a sensual careless life; cloathed with the best, and faring deliciously every day? |
A27042 | For your souls sake enquire now, Is it thus with you? |
A27042 | How carefully would you help the Labourers that are sent to guid men in the holy path? |
A27042 | How confident should I be, that I could convert the most, if this were the Conversion? |
A27042 | How little need should I have had to press it with all this importunity? |
A27042 | How much further think you is it possible, for wicked souls to go in sinning? |
A27042 | How severely would you deal with those, that by making a mock of Godliness, do hinder the salvation of the peoples souls? |
A27042 | If brutish objects be your employment and delight, do I need to tell you what you make your selves? |
A27042 | Is God and Heaven less worth then these? |
A27042 | Is it not the God of Heaven himself that they make a scorn of? |
A27042 | Is not Holiness his image? |
A27042 | Is there none among you that spend your precious time in vanities, that is allowed you to prepare for life eternal? |
A27042 | Is this your duty now, or is it not? |
A27042 | Lest when he plagueth and condemneth you he say, Why persecuted you me? |
A27042 | O that that this Honourable Assembly could know it in some measure, as it shall be shortly known? |
A27042 | O then what Laws would you make against sin? |
A27042 | Or can you expect to be obeyed by others, when you will not obey the God of Heaven and Earth your selves? |
A27042 | Or is the offending of the Eternal God, so slight and safe a thing, as not to need your consideration? |
A27042 | Or shall I think it were uncharitableness not to hope for it? |
A27042 | Or would you have the people to be better then your selves? |
A27042 | Shall I think it were presumption for me to hope for so high a reward for so short a labour? |
A27042 | Shall the thorns and bryers be set in battail against the consuming fire and prevail? |
A27042 | Surely God made not his Laws for nought; nor doth he make such a stir by his Word, and Messengers, and Providences against an harmless thing? |
A27042 | The question is not, whether Bishops or no? |
A27042 | The suffering to the sound in faith is as nothing: for what is the foaming rage of mad men to be regarded? |
A27042 | We have all seen the evils of Liberty to be wanton in Religion: Is it not worse to have Liberty, to deride Religion? |
A27042 | Will you make Laws which you would not have men obey? |
A27042 | You can easily loath an enemy; and who hath been a greater enemy to any of you, then your selves? |
A27042 | and What is it that God would have us do? |
A27042 | and What shall we wish we had done at last? |
A27042 | and endangered your eternall peace? |
A27042 | and how they will look back on all at last? |
A27042 | and to thrust his service into corners, and give him but the odious leavings of the flesh?] |
A27042 | and what judgement it is that they will all be of, in the controversie between the flesh and spirit, at the later end? |
A27042 | and what will be the fruit and end of all their lusts and vanities? |
A27042 | and whether an holy or a sensual life will be sweetest to a dying man? |
A27042 | and whether enow to use it? |
A27042 | before your Physitian, then before your Judge? |
A27042 | but whether Discipline or none? |
A27042 | for your cure, then for your torment? |
A27042 | or have you thus returned with self- loathing to the Lord, and firmly engaged your souls to him at your enterance into a holy life? |
A27042 | to forget thy God, thy soul, thy happiness? |
A27042 | to serve thy flesh? |
A27042 | was it not your sinfull selves? |
A27042 | what a monster of rebellion and ingratitude, to do all this against the Lord of love and mercy? |
A27042 | what an unreasonable self- hating wretch, to do all this against my self? |
A27042 | what have they left but a sting behind them? |
A27042 | why then was fasting, and sack cloth and ashes, the badg of such in ancient times? |
A35943 | 10. Who will bring me into the strong City? |
A35943 | 2. Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD? |

A35943 | It is the Lords praise, that his servants are the only blessed people in the world: Praise ye the Lord: why? |
A35943 | LORD, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him? |
A35943 | Mine eyes faile for thy word: saying, When wilt thou comfort me? |
A35943 | Sharp arrowes of the mighty? |
A35943 | The LORD is on my side, I will not feare: what can man do unto me? |
A35943 | There is rare wisdome to be learned out of Gods decrees and works; How precious are thy thoughts unto me? |
A35943 | What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? |
A35943 | What shall I render unto the LORD for all his benefits towards me? |
A35943 | What shall be given unto thee? |
A35943 | When the world is crying, Who will shew us any good thing? |
A35943 | Wherefore should the heathen say: Where is now their God? |
A35943 | Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? |
A35943 | Whither shall I go from thy Spirit: or whither shall I flee from thy presence? |
A35943 | Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? |
A35943 | Ye mountaines that ye skipped like rams: and ye little hills like lambs? |
A35943 | and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee? |
A35943 | and upon what ground is he so confident? |
A35943 | and wilt not thou go forth with our hostes? |
A35943 | and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hostes? |
A35943 | or the sonne of man; that thou makest account of him? |
A35943 | or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue? |
A35943 | thou Iordan that thou wast driven back? |
A35943 | when wilt thou execute judgement on them that persecute me? |
A35943 | who can shew forth all his praise? |
A35943 | who will lead me into Edom? |
A46905 | And now for the punishing and preventing of these and such like practises, upon whom are the minds of the people set, but upon your Lordships? |
A46905 | And thou that, by a plea of judgement, dost these things, thinkest thou, that thou shalt escape the judgement of God? |
A46905 | Behold, thou hast given me five talents, and I have made them ten; and when the question shall be put, how, or by what means? |
A46905 | Can horses run upon a rock, or one plow there with oxen? |
A46905 | Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the Leopard his spots? |
A46905 | Shall horses run upon the rock? |
A46905 | what a strange reckoning will the rich steward make, when God shall at last( as assuredly he will) require of him an account of his stewardship? |
A46905 | will one plow there with oxen? |

A34663 | art thou delighted with them? |
A34663 | doth not Christ dwell here in the simplicity of his ordinances? |
A34663 | or the sons of mortall men more holy than the sons of God? |

A34663 | whither is thy beloved turned aside? |
A34663 | yea, how then should her heart have beene otherwise then asleepe too? |
A43127 | And I would ask a prophane and impenitent person, how he thinks he can bear the pomp of the last tribunal? |
A43127 | And that is, that none considereth in his heart, I have burnt part of it in the fire, and shall I make the residue of it an abomination? |
A43127 | And what great pleasure is it that we have from vice? |
A43127 | But what if these things were only probabilities and conjectures? |
A43127 | Have I not begun my preparation for death till this day, and yet for ought I know this may be the very last day of my life? |
A43127 | I then began to examine him as to the state of his Soul, what sense he had of his sins? |
A43127 | Is there then no thought, or labour in, or beyond the grave? |
A43127 | Let us see then what use wisdom would make of such a consideration as this; would it pass this little time it has given it to no purpose? |
A43127 | a pious life would still be the most advantageous conclusion we could deduce from this; for what do we loose by it? |
A43127 | and can we live here, as if we had nothing to do, or nothing but what we might defer till a future state? |
A43127 | and do we not all act thus in those affairs that relate to our temporal concerns? |
A43127 | and how then should it not be prudence to judge alike with reference to our eternal ones? |
A43127 | and if this opportunity being once lost, there be no other to retrieve our hopes, does not common reason urge us immediately to embrace and employ it? |
A43127 | and what if Fortune smile upon us here for a moment? |
A43127 | and what remorse for having at any time offended God? |
A43127 | and whether he were perswaded of the necessity of repentance and amendment of life in order to gain the Salvation purchased by Iesus Christ? |
A43127 | does it ballance the dismal apprehensions we have upon a sickbed, or upon approaching death? |
A43127 | if in the mean time our hopes reach no farther, and death is to put an end both to our grandeur and our expectation? |
A43127 | if the time we have to stay be but short, is it not just and fit that we be cautious of loosing and misapplying it? |
A43127 | if we are sure in the end to find a lasting comfort, to have all our tears wiped off, and an admittance given us into the joy of our Lord? |
A43127 | is there nothing that can avail us towards joy in the world to come, but our passing of our days on earth in a conscientious discharge of our duty? |
A43127 | or for so short a time? |
A43127 | or to wicked ones? |
A43127 | or what do we gain by the contrary? |
A43127 | or what if it does? |
A43127 | shall I fall down to the stock of a tree? |
A43127 | shall I gratify my own follies and vices, and in the hurry of them fancy I live for a moment, and so be carried away blindly into everlasting Death? |
A43127 | what if all these join together to make our journey uneasy? |
A43127 | what if the world frown upon us, and we meet with disappointments in our designs, necessity in our fortune and pains and diseases in our bodies? |
A43127 | what if we are feared or envy''d, caressed or loved by those about us? |
A43127 | what if we have health of body, plentiful estates and fair reputations? |
A43127 | what if we were not fully assured that there were to be a future state, but only apprehended and dreaded it? |
A43127 | what thoughts would be raised in him from the sight of a distant Heaven, and what sense he would have of the torments of a present Hell? |
A43127 | whether he gave credit to the Miracles that are there recorded; and lookt upon them as attestations of the truth of the Christian Religion? |
A43127 | would it carelessly let slip the opportunities of repentance and amendment, or render them yet more difficult by affected and habitual impieties? |
A43127 | would it neglect its work or add to it? |
A43127 | would it study methods and contrivances to waste and mispend it? |
A43127 | would not any man that reflects seriously on this be apt to say to himself, shall I spend my thoughts or contrivance for that which profiteth nothing? |

A34191 | A Second Question is this, To whom will ye Flee for Help? |
A34191 | And should not the Ministers of the Gospel Excommunicate Kings? |
A34191 | And what have I for that? |
A34191 | And where is there a King that Desires them to do so, or to do this Way? |
A34191 | Are Kings excemed then? |
A34191 | Are they not Creatures and Subjects to GOD? |
A34191 | Because they made Evil Laws: How so? |
A34191 | But be who he will, Father, or Mother, or your King, should ye Love and Help him that Hates the LORD? |
A34191 | But before we proceed to the next Question, we shall speak a few words, To whom will ye Flee? |

A34191 | Even you that made Laws What more these nor other Folk? |
A34191 | GOD is the Pursuer, Who can be the Defender? |
A34191 | Has the Great Ones gotten their Wills out? |
A34191 | Have we Laws, have we them from Men or of GOD? |

A34191 | If ye Consented to their Laws; Is there Nothing that you Fear? |
A34191 | Is any Stronger nor GOD? |
A34191 | Is it a Blessing? |
A34191 | Is it that I may be for Thee? |
A34191 | It is set out in the Body of the Land the Generality, or Body of the Land: What does he to them? |

A34191 | Now where will ye leave your Glory? |
A34191 | Now, What will ye do in the Day of Visitation? |

A34191 | Shouldest thou Help the Vngodly, and Love them that Hate the LORD? |
A34191 | Shouldest thou Love them that Hate the LORD, and Help the Vngodly? |

A34191 | The first Question is, What will ye do in the Day of Visitation? |
A34191 | The next Thing to be considered is, The Prophet''s Reproof: He is an Misleard Prophet, Wade any Body think that he should speak so to a King? |
A34191 | They now talk Good Men are upon both Parties, Whom shall we Condemn or Follow? |
A34191 | Think you GOD will spare a King more nor a Beggar? |

A48734 | For how shall Samuel judge, if he have not a Rule laid before him, according to which judgment is to be made? |
A48734 | For what is Reason it self, but a Law and Rule of mens actions? |
A48734 | For what says the Apostle elsewhere? |

A48734 | if we hold together upon no better terms then these, where are we? |

A27888 | Doth God regard what''s good or ill? |
A27888 | For whom have I but Thee in Heaven above? |
A27888 | GOd is my Saviour, my clear light: Who then can my repose affright? |

A27888 | God hath abandon''d him, say they; Now let us make his life our prey: Who shall our power oppose? |
A27888 | Great God of Battail, wilt thou still Be angry, and our prayers despise? |
A27888 | He in her Centre takes his place: What Foe can her fair Towers deface, Protected by his early Grace? |
A27888 | He in my trouble heard my Prayers, And freed me from their deadly snares: He fights my Battails; then how can ● fear the Power of feeble Man? |
A27888 | His Acts to all the World relate? |
A27888 | How can I fall; When I, and all My hopes on thee relie? |
A27888 | If I gave words unto such thoughts as these, I should th''assemblies of thy Saints displease: For then, what were it to be just, or good? |
A27888 | If their foundation be destroy''d, What can the Righteous build upon? |
A27888 | In Misery and Age why should I fear, When Sin pursues my steps, and Death draws near? |
A27888 | Like Hypocrites at Feasts, they jeer; Whose gnashing teeth their hate profess: O Lord, how long wilt thou forbear, And only look on my distress? |
A27888 | Lord, hate not I thy Enemies? |
A27888 | Lord, wilt not thou, that did''st reject, Nor would''st before our Armies goe, Now lead our Host against the Foe? |
A27888 | Lord, wilt not thou, that didst reject, Nor wouldst before our Armies goe, Now lead our Host against the Foe? |
A27888 | MY God, on Thee my hopes relie: Why say they to my troubled Soul, Arise, up to your Mountain flie; Flie, quickly, like a chaced Fowl? |
A27888 | My Foes have said, When shall he die, And yet out- live his Memory? |
A27888 | My cries then with my grief renew, Which thus implor''d thy saving Grace: What profit can my blood afford, When I shall to the Grave descend? |
A27888 | O Thou in Mischief great, Why boasts thou in deceit? |

A27888 | O why hast thou her Fences ras''t? |
A27888 | O, why hast thou withdrawn thy Grace, And hid thy Face; From me, who from my Infancy But daily die? |

A42952 | * Who made you Ministers of the Gospel to the White People only, and not to the Tawneys and Blacks? |
A42952 | And also Job, when he asked, Did not he that made me in the Womb make them, and did not one fashion us both in the Womb? |
A42952 | And now this being considered, what right can we have thus fiercely to declaim against these Mahometans? |
A42952 | And shall not he render to every Man according to his works? |

A42952 | And then, why may not these Conversions also be carried on both together? |
A42952 | And who knows whether Your Majesty be not come to the Kingdom for such a Time as this? |
A42952 | And why then must this above all other escape, this so black a Sin of Irreligion? |
A42952 | And why were not those poor Barbarians of Jackatra( before mentioned) admitted thereto, when so earnestly importuned and besought by them? |
A42952 | And, Hast thou not procured this unto thy self, saith our Prophet here in the Text, in that thou hast forsaken the Lord, when he led thee by the way? |
A42952 | And, Hath a Nation changed their Gods, which are yet no Gods? |
A42952 | And, when they thus see me upon taking away their Gods, it will be but a very sensless and unreasonable Question to demand, What aileth them? |
A42952 | But of what Spirit must those then be that do neglect and hinder it? |
A42952 | By what Authority or Law, he could do this to that or any other Person? |
A42952 | For the next; I would fain know what kind of Merchants these are, who will be displeased upon this occasion? |

A27790 | 11 Shall thy loving kindnesse be shewed in the grave: or thy faithfulnesse in destruction? |
A27790 | 11 Tush( say they) how should God perceive it: is there knowledge in the most Highest? |
A27790 | 11 What reward shall I give unto the Lord: for all the benefits that he hath done unto me? |
A27790 | 12 For the sinne of their mouth, and for the words of their lips, they shall be taken in their pride: and why? |
A27790 | 12 Shall thy wondrous workes be knowne in the darke: and thy righteousnesse in the land where all things are forgotten? |
A27790 | 12 Who can tell how oft he offendeth? |
A27790 | 12 Why hast thou then broken down her hedge: that all they that go by, pluck off her grapes? |
A27790 | 12 Why withdrawest thou thy hand: why pluckest not thou thy right hand out of thy bosome to consume the enemy? |
A27790 | 13 Namely, while they say daily unto mee: Where is now thy God? |
A27790 | 13 Thinkest thou that I will eat bulls flesh: and drink the bloud of goats? |
A27790 | 13 Thy way, O God, is holy: who is so great a God( as our God?) |
A27790 | 14 And why? |
A27790 | 14 Lord, why abhorest thou my soule: and hidest thou thy face from me? |
A27790 | 14 Why art thou so vexed, O my soule: and why art thou so disquieted within me? |
A27790 | 15 Wherefore should the wicked blaspheme God: while he doth say in his heart, Tush, thou God carest not for it? |
A27790 | 16 But unto the ungodly said God: Why dost thou preach my Laws, and takest my Covenant in thy mouth? |
A27790 | 16 Who will rise up with me against the wicked: or who will take my part against the evill doers? |
A27790 | 16 Why hop ye so ye high hills? |
A27790 | 17 He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who is able to abide his frost? |
A27790 | 17 Thy righteousnesse, O God, is very high: and great things are they that thou hast done, O God, who is like unto thee? |
A27790 | 2 For thou art the God of my strength, why hast thou put me from thee: and why go I so heavily, while the enemy oppresseth me? |
A27790 | 2 How long shall I seek counsell in my soul,& be so vexed in my heart: how long shall mine enemies triumph over me? |
A27790 | 2 How long will yee give wrong iudgement: and accept the persons of the ungodly? |
A27790 | 2 Mine eyes long sore for thy word: saying, O when wilt thou comfort me? |
A27790 | 2 My soul is a thirst for God, yea, even for the living God: when shall I come to appeare before the presence of God? |
A27790 | 2 O ye sonnes of men, how long will ye blaspheme mine honour: and have such pleasure in vanity, and seek after leasing? |
A27790 | 2 Wherefore shall the heathen say: Where is now their God? |
A27790 | 2 Who can expresse the noble acts of the Lord: or shew forth all his praise? |
A27790 | 20 And why? |
A27790 | 20 Wilt thou have any thing to do with the stoole of wickednesse: which imagineth mischiefe as a law? |
A27790 | 21 Do not I hate them O Lord, that hate thee: and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee? |
A27790 | 21 If we have forgotten the name of our God, and holden up our hands to any strange god: shall not God search it out? |
A27790 | 24 Wherefore hidest thou thy face: and forgettest our misery and trouble? |
A27790 | 3 And why? |
A27790 | 3 For the foundations will be cast down: and what hath the righteous done? |
A27790 | 3 If thou Lord wilt be extream to mark what is done amisse: O Lord, who may abide it? |
A27790 | 3 Lord, how long shall the ungodly: how long shall the ungodly triumph? |
A27790 | 3 Lord, what is man that thou hast such respect unto him: or the sonne of man that thou so regardest him? |
A27790 | 3 My soul is also sore troubled: but Lord how long wilt thou punish me? |
A27790 | 3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord: or who shall rise up in his holy place? |
A27790 | 31 For who is God but the Lord: or who hath any strength except our God? |
A27790 | 4 For why? |
A27790 | 4 How long shall all wicked doers speak so disdainfully: and make such proud boasting? |
A27790 | 4 How many are the dayes of thy servant: when wilt thou be avenged of them that persecute me? |
A27790 | 4 How shall we sing the Lords song: in a strange land? |
A27790 | 4 O Lord God of hosts: how long wilt thou be angry with thy people that prayeth? |
A27790 | 4 What is man that thou art mindfull of him: and the sonne of man that thou visitest him? |
A27790 | 4 Which have said, With our tongue we will prevail: we are they that ought to speak, who is Lord over us? |
A27790 | 41 For why? |
A27790 | 45 Lord, how long wilt thou hide thy selfe, for ever: and shall thy wrath burne like fire? |
A27790 | 46 Oh remember how short my time is: wherefore hast thou made all men for nought? |
A27790 | 47 What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death: and shall he deliver his soule from the hand of hell? |
A27790 | 48 Lord, where are thy old loving kindnesses: which thou swarest unto David in thy truth? |
A27790 | 5 Are not they without understanding that work wickednes: eating up my people as if they would eat bread? |
A27790 | 5 For in death no man remembreth thee: and who will give thee thanks in the pit? |
A27790 | 5 Lord, how long wilt thou be angry: shall thy iealousie burn like fire for ever? |
A27790 | 5 Mine enemies speak evill of me: when shall he dye, and his name perish? |
A27790 | 5 What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest: and thou Iordan, that thou wast driuen backe? |
A27790 | 5 Wherefore should I feare in the dayes of wickednesse: and when the wickednesse of my heels compasse me round about? |
A27790 | 5 Who is like unto the Lord our God, that hath his dwelling so high: and yet humbleth himselfe to behold the things that are in heauen and earth? |
A27790 | 5 Why art thou so heavy, O my soul: and why art thou so disquieted within me? |
A27790 | 5 Wilt thou be displeased at us for ever: and wilt thou stretch out thy wrath from one generation to another? |
A27790 | 6 For who is he among the clouds: that shall be compared unto the Lord? |
A27790 | 6 Whither shall I go then from thy Spirit: or whither shall I go then from thy presence? |
A27790 | 6 Why art thou so full of heavinesse( O my soul:) and why art thou so disquieted within me? |
A27790 | 6 Wilt thou not turn againe& quicken us: that thy people may reioyce in thee? |
A27790 | 6 Yee mountaines, that yee skipped like rammes: and yee little hills like young sheep? |
A27790 | 7 And what is he among the gods: that shall be like unto the Lord? |
A27790 | 7 And why? |
A27790 | 7 And why? |
A27790 | 7 Behold, they speak with their mouth, and swords are in their lips: for who doth heare? |
A27790 | 7 Haue I not remembred thee in my bed: and thought upon thee when I was waking? |
A27790 | 7 Thou even thou art to be feared: and who may stand in thy sight when thou art angry? |
A27790 | 7 Thy testimonies have I claimed as mine heritage for ever: and why? |
A27790 | 7 Will the Lord absent himselfe for ever: and will he be no more intreated? |
A27790 | 8 And why? |
A27790 | 8 And why? |
A27790 | 8 Have they no knowledge, that they are all such workers of mischief: eating up my people as it were bread? |
A27790 | 8 Is his mercy cleane gone for ever: and is his promise come utterly to an end for evermore? |
A27790 | 8 Take heed yee unwise among the peoyle: O yee fooles, when will yee understand? |
A27790 | 8 Thou tellest my flittings, put my teares into thy bottle: are not these things noted in thy book? |
A27790 | 9 Hath God forgotten to be gracious: and will he shut up his loving kindnes in displeasure? |
A27790 | 9 He that planted the eare, shall he not heare: or he that made the eye, shall he not see? |
A27790 | 9 What profit is there in my blond: when I go down to the p t? |
A27790 | 9 Who will lead me into the strong city: who will bring me into Edom? |
A27790 | ARe your mindes set upon righteousnesse, O ye congregation: and do ye iudge the thing that is right, O ye sonnes of men? |
A27790 | But concerning him I must say, as S. Paul said of the Unbeleevers, what have I to doe with them that are without? |
A27790 | EVENING PRAYER ▪ THe Lord is my light and my salvation, whom then shall I feare? |
A27790 | HOw long wilt thou forget me( O Lord) for ever: how long wilt thou hide thy face from me? |
A27790 | How long, O Lord, how long shall we seek for rest and finde none? |
A27790 | How shall we stand upright in the eternall scrutiny? |
A27790 | IN the Lord put I my trust: how say ye then to my soul, that she should flee as a bird unto the hill? |
A27790 | LOrd, who shall dwell in thy tabernacle: or who shall rest upon thy holy hill? |
A27790 | O God wherefore art thou absent from us so long: why is thy wrath so hot against the sheep of thy pasture? |
A27790 | VVHy boastest thou thy self, thou tyrant: that thou canst do mischief? |
A27790 | VVHy do the heathen so furiously rage together: and why do the people imagine a vaine thing? |
A27790 | VVHy standest thou so farre off( O Lord) and hidest thy face in the needfull time of trouble? |
A27790 | Where is now thy God? |
A27790 | Where shall we appeare in the day of judgment? |
A27790 | the Lord is the strength of my life, of whom then shall I be afraid? |
A48855 | A Thing that was certainly done, do I ask how it was possible? |
A48855 | But do you remember how, and by whom it was preserved? |
A48855 | But how was it preserved, at that time, when the Enemies Fleet were coming with full purpose to have burnt it in the Haven of Portsmouth? |
A48855 | But how was that brought about? |
A48855 | But if we are so at a loss for it, that either we see no Cause at all, or none that can reach the effect: What then? |
A48855 | But was it never so since? |
A48855 | But what hinder''d? |
A48855 | Can any one think, that thinks at all, how these Just and great Interests could have been preserved? |
A48855 | For what can they say to so many things that God only can do, and that all concurr''d together in this matter? |
A48855 | If it be, did I say? |
A48855 | Is it his meaning that w ● should love the Church of England, to which h ● has shewn so much love in so many Deliverances? |
A48855 | Is it his meaning that we sh ● uld shew our concernedness for those things which he has sh ● wn himself so much concern''d for? |
A48855 | Is it his meaning that we should be hi ● Instruments to help others, with the like Affection and Care as he has sh ● wn in helping us? |
A48855 | Is it his meaning to set us up like a Light on a Hill, that we should be a Pattern to all other Nations? |
A48855 | What greater Testimonies could he give to any Church, then he has done to ours, in those wonderful deliverances he has given us? |
A48855 | What is it then that comes properly into our Question? |
A48855 | What preserved us from this great Danger? |
A48855 | What should be the Meaning of our most gracious God in all this? |
A48855 | What should we do then, but let things go on in their Course? |
A48855 | What works? |
A48855 | When the Syrians saw their mighty armies overcome by a handful of Israelites; they knew it was not done by humane strength; what then? |
A48855 | Who has been, or who was like to be, the better for this? |
A48855 | how any one of these could have stood, any otherwise, then by his venturing himself as he did? |
A48855 | or when he had gone so far, how he could Retreat afterwards, without taking the Government upon him? |
A48855 | that all the Kings Enemies should be so charmed, that at his coming in, not a Dog should stir his Tongue against him? |
A48855 | that those others likewise should give up their Interests, and smother their Prejudices and Disaffections? |
A53699 | 1. Who are those persons in whom is this presence of Christ? |
A53699 | 12, 13, 14. and now where is their glory? |
A53699 | And what Glory is there in that which almost constantly brings forth contray effects to its own proper end and intendment? |
A53699 | And whence is it that this feeble generation shall be as a Lion? |
A53699 | As to the persons in themselves considered, the application is easie unto this Assembly: Are you not the remnant, the escaping of England? |
A53699 | But how shall we do it? |
A53699 | But it will be said secondly, we are still at a losse; for what woful divisions are there amongst this gegeneration of professors? |
A53699 | But what shall this remnant do? |
A53699 | Christ was in the pursuit of the collection of his people from their dispersion: what seeks he after; what looks he for? |
A53699 | Is it in their wisdome and counsel, their understanding for the ordering of their affairs? |
A53699 | Is not this a brand plucked out of the fire? |
A53699 | Is that their glory? |
A53699 | There is no delivery from him: No, but what if there be a strong combination of many against him, will he not cease and give over? |
A53699 | This is their Glory or they have none; is it in their number, that they are great, many, and populous? |
A53699 | Why what if he be provoked? |
A53699 | Would it not hasten your destruction, and increase your account? |
A53699 | are they such as professe indeed Religion, but neglect all Rules of righteousnesse; that would be accounted Godly, but care not to be honest? |
A53699 | he is gone up from the prey, he stoopeth down, he coucheth as a Lion and as an old Lion, who shall rouse him up? |
A53699 | what if he be stirred up? |
A44938 | And what? |
A44938 | But what? |
A44938 | Come to particulars, I would know when Covetousness will think it self sufficiently crammed and served? |
A44938 | Disturbers of the peace of his Kingdom? |
A44938 | Do we not know, that God hath many other Arrows in his Quiver, as quickly to be drawn? |
A44938 | Enmity against God, deicidium( in will, though not in effect:) What but this is the great make- bate between God and his people? |
A44938 | For are lusts ever to be fulfill''d and satiated? |
A44938 | Is it a scruple to put as many into our prayers, as our Lord Christ did own dying for? |
A44938 | Is this the last mischief of it? |
A44938 | Many other ways to ease and avenge himself of his Adversaries? |
A44938 | Of his Council, of his Houshold, of his own Loins? |
A44938 | Or are we afraid, lest the many prepared mansions in Heaven should be over- filled, though there were as many blessed Saints as Men? |
A44938 | Plotters against his Person? |
A44938 | Should not I set against that( with all animosity) which sets so hard against thee, and makes thee set thy face so severely against men? |
A44938 | The disquieter, as I may say, and griever of his Spirit? |
A44938 | This is not iniquum petere, but is it not in auditum petere? |
A44938 | To raise a Paroxisme of grief and indignation in the holy Apostle? |
A44938 | Upon a Church, what disorders will it not bring? |
A44938 | VVhat then remains, but that it be shortned and cut off, that a Providential violence be used upon it? |
A44938 | VVhen will Schism sit down, as thinking it hath made the rupture wide enough in the Garment of Christ? |
A44938 | We will dispute no longer in the Schools, whether sin be a meer Privation? |
A44938 | What an incredible change have three days made of the Metropolis of England, and most famous Emporium of Christendom? |
A44938 | What effects will it not have upon Nature it self? |
A44938 | Whether it hath any Positive Entity? |
A44938 | Wickedness to come to an end? |
A44938 | Will Lust think it hath had gratification enough, so long as there is any Marrow left in the bones? |
A44938 | do we find David here devoutly cursing his Enemies on his knees? |
A44938 | how did people fall then by the righteous, but dreadful hand of God, as leaves beaten down by a vehemet wind? |
A44938 | or is it not ours? |
A44938 | or when should these things be? |
A44938 | or whether ever it shall recover? |
A44938 | or, whether there will be any end at all? |
A44938 | to make a zealously affected Ezra to rend his Garment, and his Mantle; to pluck off the hair of his head, and of his beard? |
A44938 | upon every Element? |
A44938 | what dismal and amazing changes will this make? |
A44938 | what evil Angels or Asmodei will it not send? |
A44938 | what the end of wickedness will be? |
A44938 | when it hath corrupted and worn out his miserable body, and brought him to the grave? |
A44938 | with false, treacherous Friends? |
A44938 | — Tantaene animis Coelestibus Irae? |
A56228 | * neither subsist, but being united? |
A56228 | Alasse, why should the head and members have any civil contestations, since both must perish if divided? |
A56228 | And sheweth mercy to his anointed;( but who are they?) |
A56228 | Did not thy father eat and drink,& do judgment and justice, and then it was well with him? |
A56228 | God thus speaks to K. Iehoiakim, Shalt thou raign because thou closest thy self in Cedar? |
A56228 | If any Court- Chaplaine here demand; how I prove beleeving Subjects fearing God, to be his anoynted, as wel as Kings or P ● iests? |
A45500 | ''T is the character of the wicked to say, Who is Lord over us? |
A45500 | ''t is thy worship, and is it iniquity to Worship God? |
A45500 | 3. oh my People, what have I done unto thee, and wherein have I wearied thee? |
A45500 | And indeed what does Religion teach you if it does not teach you this piece of morality? |
A45500 | And these things are good for others too; how advantagious and beneficial to the World are Justice and Mercy? |
A45500 | And what can more commend it to us to be the Book of our daily Converse and Meditation? |
A45500 | Be as just in your word, as true to your promise, as exact in your dealings as you would have others to be? |
A45500 | But on the contrary does not the whole of my proceedings with you testifie for me? |
A45500 | Did the Heathens of old, and do they still at this day know it and art thou a stranger to it? |
A45500 | He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good, and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with thy God? |
A45500 | Hereupon they move the Prophet with this Question, Wherewithal shall I come before the Lord, and bow my self before the high God? |
A45500 | I shall close this with that sentence of the Scribe, Mark 12. Who having asked our Lord, Which is the first commandment of all? |
A45500 | If therefore the Question be in what way is the justice of God satisfied for sin? |
A45500 | Is it such a Fast that I have chosen? |
A45500 | Is it to how down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? |
A45500 | Is that good that is amiable and lovely? |
A45500 | Is that good that is pleasant and delightful? |
A45500 | Or is that good that is profitable? |
A45500 | Or what shall a man give in exchange for his Soul? |
A45500 | Samuel said, Hath the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as in obeying the voice of the Lord? |
A45500 | To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? |
A45500 | What is a man profited if he shall gain the whole World, and lose his own Soul? |
A45500 | What shall we do to avert them? |
A45500 | What then is the Fast that God has chosen? |
A45500 | What? |
A45500 | Whereas many say, Who will shew us good? |
A45500 | Who does not see what need there is of Fasting, of Prayer and Humbling our selves before the Lord? |
A45500 | and again, Who is the Lord, that I should obey his voice? |
A45500 | are not your ways unequal? |
A45500 | can you mend your selves by changing your Lord? |
A45500 | hast thou not requir''d these things? |
A45500 | hath the Lord as great delight in sacrifices as in obedience? |
A45500 | have I been unmindful of you or wanting to do you good? |
A45500 | how much do they conduce to the good order of it? |
A45500 | how sweet are the influences that they diffuse amongst all persons? |
A45500 | in what way and upon what account is God reconcil''d to Sinners? |
A45500 | oh house of Israel, are not my ways equal? |
A45500 | or wherein can you fault my conduct and providence towards you? |
A45500 | q. d. what have I commanded you, that you should count my service a Burden? |
A45500 | saith the Lord; I am full of burnt offerings,& c, To what purpose, Lord? |
A45500 | shall I count them pure with the wicked balances and with the bag of deceitful weights? |
A45500 | what so lovely as ho liness? |
A45500 | who is not the better for them? |
A45500 | who shall dwell in thy holy hill? |
A45500 | wilt thou call this a Fast, and an acceptable day unto the Lord? |
A57133 | And why should I not trust him, as well in his Covenant of Grace as of Nature? |
A57133 | I am the Lord, the God of all flesh, is there any thing too hard for me? |
A57133 | If it be marvellous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these dayes, should it also be marvellous in mine eyes, saith the Lord of Hosts? |
A57133 | Is any thing too hard for the Lord? |
A57133 | can he give bread also and provide flesh for his people? |
A57133 | why should I not believe that that power which quickens dead corn, can quicken dead men, and can provide as well for my salvation as for my nature? |
A48725 | 35. Who, sayes he, shall separate us from the love of Christ? |
A48725 | And how can Divine Praises be celebrated by death, which puts all the Organs and Instruments of Speech out of tune? |
A48725 | And tell me now, O impatient soul, whoever thou art, what reason hast thou to take Gods dealings unkindely? |
A48725 | And what are we then, that we should repine, and murmur, and think our selves hardly dealt with? |
A48725 | And* a wounded grieved spirit who can bear? |
A48725 | Good King Hezekiah in bitterness? |
A48725 | I have been afflicted; God has deliver''d me; I praise him for it: how? |
A48725 | I have been exercised with grievous sickness; God has visited me with his loving kindeness: I come to return him due praise for his goodness: how? |
A48725 | If God so freely love us, how ought we to love one another, and to help one another with all kinde of courtesie and assistance? |
A48725 | Now, as the Syriack brings it in, Hezekiah had said, What is the sign, that I shall go to the house of the Lord? |
A48725 | O Lord, how manifold are thy works? |
A48725 | Shall we not much more do so to God? |
A48725 | This was Satan''s argument,* Doth Job serve God for nought? |
A48725 | What is man, that thou art so mindful of him? |
A48725 | What then? |
A48725 | Who? |
A48725 | Why art thou cast down, O my soul? |
A48725 | Why, learned Apostle, does not God take care of Oxen? |
A48725 | and what care are we oblig''d to in our walking, when we consider that All our life- time we walk upon the pit- brink? |
A48725 | and why art thou disquieted within me? |
A48725 | be after such a bitter sickness? |
A48725 | hands: for what use of patience in time of health and prosperity? |
A48725 | how soon are the pains and throws of Childe- birth forgotten for joy when the Man- childe is once born into the world? |
A48725 | or the son of man that thou shouldst so regard us? |
A48725 | or the son of man, that thou visitest him, that thou makest any account of him? |
A48725 | shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? |
A48725 | sick, and that unto death? |
A48725 | what, that may be lookt upon, as a fit object of Divine Love? |
A48856 | And do we not keep that Festival ever since? |
A48856 | And since that time, have we not seen the Restauration of the Royal Family? |
A48856 | And so in this Text, did you Fast to me, even to me? |
A48856 | Are not our Adulteries more Impudent? |
A48856 | Are we not now worse than ever? |
A48856 | But even, from the Beginning of that Time, might not God well say, Was it to me, even to me? |
A48856 | But was that all? |
A48856 | But what is an Hundred and Fifty Years, to the continuance of these Fasts in my Text? |
A48856 | But what was the Will of God concerning this matter? |
A48856 | But what? |
A48856 | By his Question, Was it to me that you fasted? |
A48856 | Did he not do it, in taking away our Blessed QUEEN from us? |
A48856 | Do we not behave our selves as if we had been Delivered for these Things? |
A48856 | How can we expect, but that God should now turn his Hand upon us? |
A48856 | How far are we from that? |
A48856 | Is not our Luxury more extravagant? |
A48856 | Is there any evil in the Land, and the Lord hath not done it? |

A45542 | Is it a more veniall offence to breake faith with God then man? |

A19568 | But hath he not now begun to strik? |
A19568 | But how doth the wicked mans way become to bee darknesse? |
A19568 | But may you not feare the danger of the second? |
A19568 | But what is all this to our examples in this Warning- peece? |
A19568 | But whereat ordinarily doe wicked men stumble? |
A19568 | But why should I thinke darkenesse to bee the cause of their shame, seeing many of them have a great deale of knowledge? |
A19568 | Call for them all, whom you are loth now to offend in pleasing GOD, and what can they doe? |
A19568 | Can much Niter and much Sope doe it? |
A19568 | Can thousands of Rammes, and ten thousand Rivers of Oyle? |
A19568 | Can you say that you sin not when conscience checks, and saith, Doe it not? |
A19568 | Christian: what was his Countrey, answered, Christian: what were his hopes, thoughts words, and deeds? |
A19568 | Did not Acham the sonne of Zerah commit a trespasse in the accursed thing? |
A19568 | Did not I deliver you from the Aegyptians and from the Amorites, from the children of Amon, and from the Philistims? |
A19568 | Do ye desire to gaine to your soules from this? |
A19568 | Doe they know that it implyes sorrow for sinne seene, purpose to forsake sin sorrowed for, and to returne unto God? |
A19568 | Doe they not thinke it to bee nothing but a conviction for sinne, a sorrow for sinne, and a crying God mercy? |
A19568 | Doe they not thinke it to bee the worke of an houre, when the whole life of a man were but enough for us to walke in that way? |
A19568 | Doe they now stumble at the lapses and falls of those that seeme better than themselves? |
A19568 | Doe they present this to their soules, that except they repent, they shall perish? |
A19568 | Doe they stumble at the offence of their companions? |
A19568 | Doe they stumble at the world? |
A19568 | Doth not his Sun and raine blesse obdurate sinners? |
A19568 | Doth poverty come as an armed man? |
A19568 | Doth the wrath of GOD come? |
A19568 | Doth thy way lye that way? |
A19568 | Farewell companions, farewell time, farewell pleasure; farewell friends, farewell all your perswasions,& c. and shall I say welcome Hell? |
A19568 | For doe they not shew great strength in sinne? |
A19568 | Hath hee not let you see that there is no peace to the wicked? |
A19568 | Hath not CHRIST promised his assistance in the Word of GOD, and Sacraments? |
A19568 | Have they not read that GOD drowned the first world, first for imaginations? |
A19568 | Have wee the confluence of all worlds goods? |
A19568 | Hee that is a good Christian, should answer like that blessed Martyr, who when hee was asked what was his name? |
A19568 | How is it darknesse? |
A19568 | How it comes to be so? |
A19568 | I asked him then whether some great sinne( not yet thought of) did not lye behind, to hinder the beames of Gods sweet grace from shining upon him? |
A19568 | I feare you will die, and then what will become of you? |
A19568 | I have neglected my Patients, who have put their lives into my hands, and how many soules have I thus murthered? |
A19568 | If in such a case GOD withdraw his countenance and frowne, is it not worthy our notice? |
A19568 | If it bee the way to Heaven, which of the Saints of GOD have gone before mee in it thither? |
A19568 | If the way to Hell, why doe I walke in it still? |
A19568 | If thou wert shut up in a dark prison, where thou couldst not have any fellowship with light, wouldst thou not thinke thy selfe in a wofull plight? |
A19568 | Is it at the peaceable end of sinners? |
A19568 | Is it not still at they know not what? |
A19568 | Is the justice of GOD upon the world cleane gone out of minde, when his Church was in a Corner, and but a little flocke? |
A19568 | Is the way delightfull? |
A19568 | Is this the way to heaven? |
A19568 | It is not bad enough to have these horrors and perplexities for sinnes and punishments? |
A19568 | Lord, how doe they fall in darknesse, till they are turned backe into perpetuall rebellions, till they fall and rise no more? |
A19568 | Now if you would know why the wayes of the wicked are thus said to be as darknesse? |
A19568 | Or know they that it is accompanied( if it be saving) with an holy course in godlinesse and righteousnesse? |
A19568 | Or that you have not bin disposed by your houres of error, to scandalize others, and neglect God and his worship? |
A19568 | Or that you have not taken pleasure in what you have done? |
A19568 | Receive the bloudy showers of devillish and worldly temptations, and how will ye stinke like Sodome and her Sisters? |
A19568 | Receive the distilled dewes of grace from the Spirit of God, and what a sweet savour shall yee be in the nostrils of God, and man? |
A19568 | Shall it fall like raine upon the barren Rockes and Mountaines without fruit? |
A19568 | Shall it not move one soule to goe from the dens of sinne to GOD? |
A19568 | Shall private persons and affaires( not worth a dunghill to the businesses of GOD) bee the onely object of bounty and munificence? |
A19568 | So while ye are in this pitchy way, in the midst of laughter your heart is heavie: yee some- times feare the hurt yee may suffer, what if I bee sicke? |
A19568 | Sometimes they are loth to offend their wicked companions; what? |
A19568 | Then weigh with me these three particulars: 1 What it is to stumble? |
A19568 | Though we could not perceive that he knew, GOD( to comfort) might hee not be knowne of God? |
A19568 | Was not Abraham our Father justified by workes? |
A19568 | What an hell will it be to you to saile by, before you come to hell, if ye repent not, and forsake not your sins? |
A19568 | What an hell will this be to you before you come to hell, if you repent not? |
A19568 | What are wee that we should sit in GOD''s chaire? |
A19568 | What is all the world if wee could graspe it into an handfull? |
A19568 | What is that to me? |
A19568 | What is the way of the wicked? |
A19568 | What matters it then to offend such, so they may please God? |
A19568 | What now is to bee done, but that you see your wickednesse, and amend all? |
A19568 | What shall I say to you Young men? |
A19568 | Where are their companions now? |
A19568 | Wherefore doe you harden your hearts as the Aegyptians and Pharaoh? |
A19568 | Who knowes whether God may leave a blessing behind? |
A19568 | Why it is darknesse? |
A19568 | Why then will they not try what they can doe in vertue? |
A19568 | Why will they neglect CHRISTS hand, which is put under to helpe? |
A19568 | Why will they not be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might, that they may be able to doe all things through him that helpeth them? |
A19568 | Will they more impotently stumble at the despaire of Gods mercy? |
A19568 | Will ye still goe on in the wayes of sinne, though ye can not prosper? |
A19568 | Will yee not take heed lest lesse policy make you to fall, as Eve fell, which was full of bitternesse to her and hers? |
A19568 | Will yee not thinke of to day, while it is called to day? |
A19568 | Will you be dismaied in any trouble, or cast off your confidence, as if Gods hand were tyed up now more than in those dayes? |
A19568 | Will you say hee is my sweet Saviour still? |
A19568 | Will you yet neglect so great salvation? |
A19568 | Ye goe on in sinne, and thrive, and are merry, and what evill can come? |
A19568 | Yea, but are they not deceived in the worke of it? |
A19568 | You will say, They are in darknesse, how then can they spie such a hole in the coat of him that is better than themselves? |
A19568 | eng Roger, William, d. 1636? |
A19568 | what if I die? |
A19568 | what if divine Iustice seaze upon mee? |
A19568 | what is now to bee done? |
A19568 | what shall become of me then? |
A59874 | and by what right a particular Prince can challenge this Authority? |
A08277 | A fountaine bringeth not forth bitter water and sweet: How then Lord can I bring forth true repentance out of a corrupt heart, as it is corrupt? |
A08277 | Alas, to discouer my selfe, when I can not hide my selfe from thee? |
A08277 | And what is this hiding of his Saints, but his continuall watchfulnesse ouer them, and his prouidence in keeping and defending them? |
A08277 | But sith it pleaseth thee to call me, though vnworthy, and to accept me as worthy; how can I but giue all diligence to attend thy call? |
A08277 | By nature, Lord, I sinne: How can I by the same sinfull part, repent of that wherein nature it selfe delighteth? |
A08277 | Did father or mother preserue him? |
A08277 | Doth he helpe thee or releeue thee? |
A08277 | For if he haue giuen his Sonne to die for our sinnes, how should he not with him giue vs all things to enioy? |
A08277 | For what booteth it me to come into thy house with deafe eares, not to heare thee? |
A08277 | For who hath power, Lord, by his owne corrupt nature to repent? |
A08277 | Hast thou no more blessings for thy children? |
A08277 | Haue I so deepely offended thee, that neither my repentance can pacifie thee? |
A08277 | He is God, and none besides; he is mighty, and none else; Why then should we faint in any troubles? |
A08277 | How can he but hide his face, and as it were, cast them away in his displeasure that neuer séeke him or serue him? |
A08277 | How can hee but hide his face from such? |
A08277 | How can hee looke vpon them in loue that leaue him? |
A08277 | How can it be, but he must cast away such in his displeasure? |
A08277 | How could I but haue fainted, but that I still beleeued to bee partaker of thy goodnesse and mercy in my troubles? |
A08277 | How much lesse, the glory of the most vnspeakable beauty of y e face of y e most high? |
A08277 | How much more shall the God of all glory, our heauenly Father, be a glory to vs his children? |
A08277 | How shall I get mony to supply my wants? |
A08277 | How sottish then are these men that will giue entertainment at the first to such seruants, as at last shall become their masters? |
A08277 | How then can hee bee truly vnderstood what hée speakes? |
A08277 | How then can they say, whom shall I feare? |
A08277 | Hée my Lord in Christ, my light and my saluation, hath conquered both Satan and Hell, what néed I feare? |
A08277 | If I haue Iehouah on my side, what can man doe vnto me? |
A08277 | If he take away this life, he hath prouided for me a better and permanent: whom or what shall I be afraid of then? |
A08277 | If therefore a man fall into any of these dominant sinnes, and liue in it, what an aduantage is it vnto his enemies? |
A08277 | If thou obserue the selfe- deseruings of the best men, and deale with them accordingly, who can see thy face and liue? |
A08277 | Ioseph likewise in his captiuity and imprisonment, shall wee thinke that hée cried not vnto the Lord for deliuery, and that instantly? |
A08277 | Is thy mercy come to an end? |
A08277 | Lord( saith Dauid) who shall dwell in thy Tabernacle? |
A08277 | Lord, what shall I say to excuse me? |
A08277 | Lord, what were Abraham, Izaak, Iaacob, Iob, Noah, Lot, Moses, Eliah, or Dauid, though a man chosen after thine owne heart? |
A08277 | Many good men are aduanced to honor and office; To what end? |
A08277 | Nay, that séeke him not with a pure heart, and that continually? |
A08277 | Norden, John, 1548- 1625? |
A08277 | Norden, John, 1548- 1625? |
A08277 | O fearefull estate, yet not a few liue in this miserable seruility; and doth not that enemy Satan triumph to obserue his vassals thus subiected? |
A08277 | O wretch that I am, Why doe I thus reason with thee? |
A08277 | Of what estate, condition, or quality soeuer? |
A08277 | Or what is the force of Princes, when thou takest part against them in the behalfe of them whom thou wilt defend? |
A08277 | Secret false combinations of enemies accompanied with false witnesses, who can withstand, or auoid? |
A08277 | Shall I be afraid of Hell or Satan? |
A08277 | Shall I teach thee what thou shouldest doe? |
A08277 | Shall we thinke to enioy his glory, and shall we suffer none of his disgrace? |
A08277 | Shall wée then that haue the like and the same benefit by the death of Christ, be ashamed of his Crosse? |
A08277 | Should I come into thy presence, O most powerfull and holy Lord God, in the bespotted garments of mine owne corruptions? |
A08277 | Should I stand consulting with flesh and bloud, whether I should seeke thy face and liue; or remaine out of thy fauour, and perish eternally? |
A08277 | Should I then feare, though I be enuironed with enemies? |
A08277 | The Lord high& mighty, he is the strength of my life; nay, he is to mee life it selfe, who then or what can without him force my death? |
A08277 | The Lord is my light and my saluation, whom shall I feare? |
A08277 | The Lord is my light and my saluation, whom shall I feare? |
A08277 | The Lord is the strength of my life, of whom shall I bee afraid? |
A08277 | WHat man is he that liueth,& is frée from enemies? |
A08277 | Was it not the prouidence of God that saued him? |
A08277 | Was not Ioseph cast into a pit by his Brethren, intending hée should haue there perished? |
A08277 | We are his members, and he is our head, and shall our head suffer and wée liue at ease? |
A08277 | We being culpable of a thousand sinnes against him, and yet hath fréed vs from the guilt and punishment of all? |
A08277 | What King can encounter thee, or take thy children out of thy hands? |
A08277 | What is then meant by the séeking of the face of God? |
A08277 | What shall I bring vnto thee to appease thee? |
A08277 | What should then hinder our Prayer to God in our owne necessities and dangers? |
A08277 | What then is man? |
A08277 | When a man loseth father and mother, being left naked and destitute of helpe, is it not a great tentation? |
A08277 | Who dare to seeke thy face as of himselfe worthy? |
A08277 | Who then can complaine in whatsoeuer sharpe affliction? |
A08277 | Who tooke care of him? |
A08277 | Who tooke him into protection? |
A08277 | Why art thou cast downe O my soule( saith Dauid in his troubles) and so vnquiet within mee? |
A08277 | Why did Dauid say vnto thee, hearken? |
A08277 | Why should wee bee daunted, though enemies rise vp against vs? |
A08277 | Why then should I say vnto thee, hearken? |
A08277 | Why therefore should we feare or repine against trouble, séeing it is so necessary for vs? |
A08277 | am I able to ouer- rule thee with my words? |
A08277 | and doth he not stirre vp enemies to vpbraid them? |
A08277 | and finally, doth hee not laugh at their destruction? |
A08277 | and who shall rest in thy holy Mountaine? |
A08277 | did he not breake the fetters, and opened he not the very iron gates, and cast the watchmen in a slumber to fetch Peter out of prison? |
A08277 | did he not giue Ioseph and Paul fauour with their Jailors? |
A08277 | mute, and not be able to speake vnto thee? |
A08277 | nay, should I feare though I were in penury and want? |
A08277 | nor my faithfull prayers preuaile with thee? |
A08277 | of whom or of what then may the faithfull bee afraid? |
A08277 | of whom shall I bee afraid? |
A08277 | some to mocke and scorne them? |
A08277 | some to reproach and reuile them? |
A08277 | stand thou on my side, and then of whom should I be afraid? |
A08277 | that is, who shall worthily enter into thy holy Temple and behold thy beauty? |
A08277 | the Lord is the streng ● h of my life, of whom shall I be afraid? |
A08277 | the mediation of thy Sonne reconcile thee? |
A08277 | though I were imprisoned for the constant profession of Christs truth? |
A08277 | though I were in distresse? |
A08277 | to pray vnto thee when thou seemest to refuse to heare me? |
A08277 | was not God alone he that preserued him? |
A08277 | what crosses, what troubles, what afflictions, what threats of tyrants can make Gods children afraid? |
A08277 | whose dwelling is in the heauens, and whose power is ouer all his works in heauen and earth? |
A08277 | without attention, to vnderstand thee? |
A08277 | would God we had died in the land of Aegyt, or in this Wildernesse: would God wee were dead, were it not better for vs to turne into Aegypt? |
A27805 | 10 Doest thou shew wonders among the dead: or shall the dead rise up again and praise thee? |
A27805 | 10 Hast thou not cast us out, O God: wilt not thou, O God, goe out with our hosts? |
A27805 | 10 Or he that nurtureth the heathen: it is he that teacheth man knowledge, shall not he punish? |
A27805 | 10 Shall the dust give thanks unto thee: or shall it declare thy truth? |
A27805 | 10 Wherefore do the heathen say: Where is now their God? |
A27805 | 10 Who will lead me into the strong city: and who will bring me into Edom? |
A27805 | 11 For why? |
A27805 | 11 Hast not thou forsaken us, O God: and wilt not thou, O God, goe forth with our hosts? |
A27805 | 11 I will say unto the God of my strength, Why hast thou forgotten me: why goe I thus heavily while the enemy oppresseth me? |
A27805 | 11 O God, how long shall the adversary do this dishonour: how long shall the enemy blaspheme thy name, for ever? |
A27805 | 11 Shall thy loving kindnesse be shewed in the grave: or thy faithfulnesse in destruction? |
A27805 | 11 Tush( say they) how should God perceive it: is there knowledge in the most Highest? |
A27805 | 11 What reward shall I give unto the Lord: for all the benefits that he hath done unto me? |
A27805 | 12 For the sin of their mouth, and for the words of their lips, they shall be taken in their pride: and why? |
A27805 | 12 Shall thy wondrous works be known in the dark: and thy righteousnesse in the land where all things are forgotten? |
A27805 | 12 Who can tell how oft he offendeth? |
A27805 | 12 Why hast thou then broken down her hedge: that all they that goe by, pluck off her grapes? |
A27805 | 12 Why withdrawest thou thy hand: why pluckest not thou thy right hand out of thy bosome to consume the ● nemy? |
A27805 | 13 Namely, while they say dayly unto me: Where is now thy God? |
A27805 | 13 Thinkest thou that I will eat buls flesh: and drink the bloud of goats? |
A27805 | 13 Thy way, O God, is holy: who is so great a God( as our God?) |
A27805 | 14 And why? |
A27805 | 14 Lord, why abhorrest thou my soul: and hidest thou thy face from me? |
A27805 | 14 Wherefore should the wicked blaspheme God: while he doth say in his heart, Tush, thou God carest not for it? |
A27805 | 14 Why art thou so vexed, O my soul: and why art thou so disquieted within me? |
A27805 | 16 But unto the ungodly said God: Why dost thou preach my Laws, and takest my Covenant in thy mouth? |
A27805 | 16 Who will rise up with me against the wicked: or who will take my part against the evill doers? |
A27805 | 16 Why hop ye so ye high hils? |
A27805 | 17 He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who is able to abide his frost? |
A27805 | 17 Thy righteousnesse, O God, is very high: and great things are they that thou hast done, O God, who is like unto thee? |
A27805 | 2 For thou art the God of my strength, why hast thou put me from thee: and why goe I so heavily while the enemy oppresseth me? |
A27805 | 2 How long shall I seek counsell in my soul, and be so vexed in my heart: how long shall mine enemies triumph over me? |
A27805 | 2 How long will ye give wrong judgement: and accept the persons of the ungodly? |
A27805 | 2 Mine eyes long sore for thy word: saying, O when wilt thou comfort me? |
A27805 | 2 My soul is a thirst for God, yea, even for the living God: when shall I come to appear before the presence of God? |
A27805 | 2 O ye sonnes of men, how long will ye blaspheme mine honour: and have such pleasure in vanity, and seek after leasing? |
A27805 | 2 Wherefore shall the heathen say: Where is now their God? |
A27805 | 2 Who can expresse the noble acts of the Lord: or shew forth all his praise? |
A27805 | 20 And why? |
A27805 | 20 They spake against God, also, saying: Shall God prepare a table in the wildernesse? |
A27805 | 20 Wilt thou have any thing to doe with the stoole of wickednesse: which imagineth mischief as a law? |
A27805 | 21 Do not I hate them, O Lord, that hate thee: and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee? |
A27805 | 21 If we have forgotten the name of our God, and holden up our hands to any strange God: shall not God search it out? |
A27805 | 24 Wherefore hidest thou thy face: and forgettest our misery and trouble? |
A27805 | 3 And why? |
A27805 | 3 For the foundations will bee cast down: and what hath the righteous done? |
A27805 | 3 If thou Lord wilt be extream to mark what is done amisse: O Lord, who may abide it? |
A27805 | 3 Lord, how long shall the ungodly: how long shall the ungodly triumph? |
A27805 | 3 Lord, what is man that thou hast such respect unto him: or the son of man that thou so regardest him? |
A27805 | 3 My soul is also sore troubled: but Lord how long wilt thou punish me? |
A27805 | 3 My tears have been my meat day and night: while they daily say unto me, Where is now thy God? |
A27805 | 3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord: or who shall rise up in his holy place? |
A27805 | 31 For who is God but the Lord: or who hath any strength except our God? |
A27805 | 4 For why? |
A27805 | 4 How long shall all wicked doers speak so disdainfully: and make such proud boasting? |
A27805 | 4 How many are the dayes of thy servant: when wilt thou be avenged of them that persecute me? |
A27805 | 4 How shall wee sing the Lords song: in a strange land? |
A27805 | 4 O Lord God of hosts: how long wilt thou be angry with thy people that prayeth? |
A27805 | 4 What is man that thou art mindfull of him: and the son of man that thou visitest him? |
A27805 | 4 Which have said, With our tongue we will prevail: we are they that ought to speak, who is Lord over us? |
A27805 | 41 For why? |
A27805 | 45 Lord, how long wilt thou hide thy self, for ever: and shall thy wrath burn like fire? |
A27805 | 46 Oh remember how short my time is: wherefore hast thou made all men for nought? |
A27805 | 47 What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death: and shall he deliver his soul from the hand of hell? |
A27805 | 48 Lord, where are thy old loving kindnesses: which thou swarest unto David in thy truth? |
A27805 | 5 Are not they without understanding that work wickednesse: eating up my people as if they would eat bread? |
A27805 | 5 For in death no man remembreth thee: and who will give thee thanks in the pit? |
A27805 | 5 Lord, how long wilt thou be angry: shall thy jealousie burn like fire for ever? |
A27805 | 5 Mine enemies speak evill of me: when shall he dye, and his name perish? |
A27805 | 5 What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest: and thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back? |
A27805 | 5 Wherefore should I fear in the days of wickednesse: and when the wickednesse of my heels compasse me round about? |
A27805 | 5 Who is like unto the Lord our God, that hath his dwelling so high: and yet humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven and earth? |
A27805 | 5 Why art thou so heavy, O my soul: and why art thou so disquieted within me? |
A27805 | 5 Wilt thou be displeased at us for ever: and wilt thou stretch out thy wrath from one generation to another? |
A27805 | 6 For who is he among the clouds: that shall be compared unto the Lord? |
A27805 | 6 There be many that say: Who will shew us any good? |
A27805 | 6 Whither shall I go then from thy Spirit: or whither shall I go then from thy presence? |
A27805 | 6 Why art thou so full of heavinesse( O my soul:) and why art thou so disquieted within me? |
A27805 | 6 Wilt thou not turn again and quicken us: that thy people may rejoyce in thee? |
A27805 | 6 Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams: and yee little hils like young sheep? |
A27805 | 7 And what is he among the gods: that shall be like unto the Lord? |
A27805 | 7 And why? |
A27805 | 7 And why? |
A27805 | 7 Behold, they speak with their mouth, and swords are in their lips: for who doth hear? |
A27805 | 7 Have I not remembred thee in my bed: and thought upon thee when I was waking? |
A27805 | 7 Thou, even thou art to be feared: and who may stand in thy sight when thou art angry? |
A27805 | 7 Thy testimonies have I claimed as mine heritage for ever: and why? |
A27805 | 7 Will the Lord absent himself for ever: and will hee be no more intreated? |
A27805 | 8 And why? |
A27805 | 8 Any why? |
A27805 | 8 Have they no knowledge, that they are all such workers of mischief: eating up my people as it were bread? |
A27805 | 8 Is his mercy clean gone for ever: and is his promise come utterly to an end for evermore? |
A27805 | 8 Take heed ye unwise among the people: O ye fools, when will ye understan ●? |

A27805 | 9 Hath God forgotten to be gracious: and will he shut up his loving kindnesse in displeasure? |
A27805 | 9 He that planted the eare, shall he not heare: or hee that made the eye, shall he not see? |
A27805 | 9 What profit is there in my bloud: when I go down to the pit? |
A27805 | 9 Who will lead me into the strong city: who will bring me into Edom? |
A27805 | ARE your minds set upon righteousnesse, O ye congregation: and doe ye judge the thing that is right, O ye sons of men? |
A27805 | But concerning him I must say, as S. Paul said of the unbeleevers, What have I to doe with them that are without? |
A27805 | HOw long wilt thou forget me( O Lord) for ever: how long wilt thou hide thy face from me? |
A27805 | Have pity on me now in the time of mercy, and condemne me not when thou commest to judgement, for what profit is there in my bloud? |
A27805 | How long, O Lord, how long shall we seek for rest and finde none? |
A27805 | How shall we stand upright in the eternall scrutiny? |
A27805 | IN the Lord put I my trust: how say ye then to my soul, that she should flee as a bird unto the hill? |
A27805 | LOrd, who shall dwell in thy tabernacle: or who shall rest upon thy holy hill? |
A27805 | Lord, I tremble when I remember that sad truth, If the righteous scarcely be saved, where then shall the wicked and the ungodly appear? |
A27805 | Lord, what is man that thou art mindfull of him: and the son of man that thou so regardest him? |
A27805 | MY God, my God,( look upon me) why hast thou forsaken me: and art so farre from my health, and from the words of my complaint? |
A27805 | O God wherefore art thou absent from us so long: why is thy wrath so hot against the sheep of thy pasture? |
A27805 | O just and dear God, where shall I appear? |
A27805 | Psalme ad verbum, saith the Tradition of the Church, and that he began it, saith the Scripture, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? |
A27805 | THe Lord is my light and my salvation, whom then shall I fear? |
A27805 | Thy way, O God, is holy: who is so great a God as our God? |
A27805 | WHy boastest thou thy self, thou ● yrant: that thou canst doe mischief? |
A27805 | WHy doe the heathen so furiously rage together: and why do the people imagine a vain thing? |
A27805 | WHy standest thou so farre off( O Lord:) and hidest thy face in the needfull time of trouble? |
A27805 | Where shall we appear in the day of Judgement? |
A27805 | the Lord is the strength of my life, of whom then shall I be afraid? |
A27805 | who shall plead for me that am so loaden with impurities, with vanity, with ingratitude, with malice, and the terrors of an affrighting conscience? |
A59552 | But you will say, if Men be such Slaves to their Thoughts, and are thus necessarily passive under them, Where is the Freedom of Thought? |
A59552 | Or for a Man that desires to be well thought of, not to entertain some vanity of Imagination, when he hears himself commended or flatter''d? |
A59552 | What is the Meaning of that Phrase? |
A59552 | What now is to be said to this? |
A48835 | And how can we tell, when he doth, or doth not, that which is in his Power secretly to do or not to do? |
A48835 | And the King lamented over Abner, and said, Died Abner as a fool dieth? |
A48835 | And what Cordial, what Refection to support him under all this? |
A48835 | And what can do that, more, than the Terror of such an Example? |
A48835 | And why not? |
A48835 | And why so? |
A48835 | But how shall we excuse them, that hold it Lawful to do such things? |
A48835 | But why so? |
A48835 | Could he make no shift for himself? |
A48835 | For whose Interest was it? |
A48835 | He asketh him, Wherefore hast thou gone in unto my Fathers Concubines? |
A48835 | How many Lies were you told the mean while, to hide it from you? |
A48835 | How many comfortless hours did he reckon in that merciless Trap where they kept him? |

A48835 | How many things did I endure e''re they brought me to this? |
A48835 | How much good might one do so qualified as he was, so disposed, so resolved, so verst in Business? |

A48835 | If so, what should hinder these men from r ● ising all those Reports of this Person? |
A48835 | If they are speculatively true, why then are they not to be practised? |
A48835 | In the Plague- time, who would have done as he did? |
A48835 | Is not this a fair proof of your Religion? |
A48835 | It was Cassius''s word, Cui bono? |
A48835 | Now who that knows what Informations our Friend had against them, can doubt but they might lawfully kill him by these Doctrines? |
A48835 | Since we know not who they are that were the Authors of this Wickedness, at least can we find who they are that are not willing we should know it? |
A48835 | The King Lamented over ABNER, and said, Died Abner as a Fool dieth? |
A48835 | Was it not a worthy Prize to get such a one into their hands? |
A48835 | What Racks, what Bodily tortures might he probably suffer? |
A48835 | What business have they for him? |
A48835 | What have they not suffered, who have had their Lot in Popish Countries? |
A48835 | What, would none miss his Band, or take notice of his clean Shoes? |
A48835 | Where can they shew the like in Countries of our Religion? |
A48835 | Who knows, but, in the end, it may prove a fatal blow to themselves? |
A48835 | Why couldst thou not fight? |
A48835 | Would none look for the effusion of Blood, or take notice of that which hindred it, that so manifest Coagulation? |
A48835 | nor thy feet put in Fetters, why couldst thou not run away? |
A48835 | without that, What have those poor men suffered? |
A58499 | But how does it appear that they are more Subservient to this end than the old Version? |
A58499 | But why should the Vindicator think that the new Version is more subservient to the Advancement of Piety and Devotion than the old? |
A58499 | Must we destroy the old Frame, and have a new Bible? |
A58499 | What then? |
A58499 | What then? |
A58499 | What, is it because of the venerable Names of Mr. Brady and Mr. Tate, the celebrated Authors of the new Performance? |
A58499 | Where then, Good Mr. Vindicator, is the Royal Injunction, or any Thing like it? |
A48851 | And Now, what shall we render to him, for being thus on our side? |
A48851 | And shall we tempt God, by doing nothing to secure our selves against them? |
A48851 | But can all others say the same, that call themselves Churches of Christ? |
A48851 | But do I ask that? |
A48851 | But now the question is, Who shall go? |
A48851 | But so the thing be done, what matter is it, which way God uses? |
A48851 | But then what think you of the Wars in the Holy- land? |

A48851 | How are we bound to praise his name, for preserving us so many times since? |
A48851 | How dividing them? |
A48851 | I do not charge all of that Religion with this Action:( Religion do I call it? |
A48851 | If they will be so, who can help it? |
A48851 | If thou hadst not been on our side, what had become of us, when men rose up against us, to swallow us up quick? |
A48851 | Men? |
A48851 | Nay to Papists themselves? |
A48851 | No? |
A48851 | No? |
A48851 | Now may Israel say, with mouth and heart; privately, and in the Congregation; If the Lord had not been on our side, what would have become of us? |
A48851 | She hath suffered more than she can well bear; and must she suffer still? |

A48851 | What a thunderclap had it been, to this Nation, to this Church, to this Kingdom? |
A48851 | What an Earthquake it would have been? |
A48851 | What out- rages did they commit? |
A48851 | What think you of those Slaughters of the Moors in Spain? |
A48851 | Who would ever suspect men of such a wickedness? |
A48851 | Why should you not be gone, and free her from her fears? |
A48851 | With what folly and fury did they break out of the Church? |
A48851 | With what insolence and perverseness did they behave themselves towards it? |
A48851 | and those Butcheries of Jews in all Countries before the Reformation? |
A48851 | how are we bound to thank God, that he was on our side on this day? |
A48851 | must she still be in fear for your sakes? |
A48851 | nay, what did they not commit? |
A48851 | or were they so, when they had power in their hands? |
A48851 | so much Cruelty requited with so much Clemency? |
A48851 | to murder a whole Nation together, in their Representative then met in Parliament? |
A48851 | to murder the innocent hopes of that Royal Family? |

A42498 | 2 How must we all follow Peace? |
A42498 | 2 Who? |
A42498 | 3 To whom? |
A42498 | 3 Why should we follow Peace with all men? |
A42498 | 4 Wherefore must we thus follow Holinesse? |
A42498 | 5 Is any thing more unreasonable, than for a man to sweare gratis? |
A42498 | Account must be given for idle words; how much more for impious, lying and pernicious? |
A42498 | And S. Paul, What fellowship hath light with darknesse? |
A42498 | Are these the expressions of reasonable minds? |
A42498 | Are they not without understanding that work wickednesse? |
A42498 | As the eye to the body, so is the Mind to the man; if it bee darkned, how great is that darknesse? |
A42498 | But how must it bee executed? |
A42498 | But who is my Neighbour? |
A42498 | But who? |
A42498 | Canst thou be too fit for heaven, or too far from sin and hell? |
A42498 | Christ refuseth this employment, because hee had no Commission from humane power: Who made me a Iudge? |
A42498 | Doe you think to serve him by sinning against him, or please him by offering an abomination? |
A42498 | Else what need all this state, solemnity, expense and trouble? |
A42498 | Hic animus atque hae sunt generosi Principis Artes? |
A42498 | How many Gods did they invent? |
A42498 | How many renewed yeares, and dayes, and mercies shall upbraid our unrenewed hearts, and minds, and lives? |
A42498 | How many things ridiculous, and to be laughed at? |
A42498 | How many young men are cut off in their proffers and essayes to amend their minds and manners? |
A42498 | How much more worthy of our serious consideration and sorrow, are the Decayes and Dilapidations of these goodly structures, our selves? |
A42498 | If there bee no God, how vaine then are their violent expressions, their frequent and passionate swearings? |
A42498 | If to deny roundly, who shall be guilty? |
A42498 | It will bee little comfort at last to dye with those words, Quantus Artifex pereo? |
A42498 | Quid enim tam iniquum, quàm ut desertori boni bene sit? |
A42498 | S. Chrysostomes advice is good:{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}: hast thou sinned? |
A42498 | The minds improvement is the maine, which God, Christ, and Religion intend in us; and shall wee bee incurious? |
A42498 | The second thing is, who must follow it? |
A42498 | They that refuse to heare and obey when mercy charmes and entreats, what voyce can they expect, but that of Justice, threatning and revenging? |
A42498 | To what purpose is finding out of true judgement, if you doe not, dare not speake out? |
A42498 | WEe have seene the manner of the Execution; but where must this be done? |
A42498 | What agreement hath light and darknesse, God and Beliall? |
A42498 | What are Lawes in your books or brests, if not put in execution? |
A42498 | What is it to have Peace with men, and warre with God? |
A42498 | What is knowledge of truth and equity, if there be not courage and conscience to speak it? |
A42498 | What is more unjust than that it should bee well with him, who hath left off to doe well? |
A42498 | What is skill, courage, and conscience, if destitute of power, to execute what they know, and decree? |
A42498 | What is the hope of the hypocrite( saith he in Iob) when God shall take away his soule? |
A42498 | What more just than that evill of suffering should light on evill doers? |
A42498 | Will yee accept the person of the Almighty, or lye for him? |
A42498 | how confused, disorderly and dangerous must our motions be? |
A42498 | how many impious, and to be pitied? |
A42498 | like Iezebels fast, to doe injustice? |
A42498 | of generous and great spirits? |
A42498 | or, speak otherwise than you judge in your selves? |
A42498 | to decree unrighteous decrees? |
A42498 | to pervert judgement, and turne away the cause and right of the poore and innocent? |
A42498 | ut animam serves nonne expergisceris? |
A42498 | whether they forsake not their owne mercies, who follow lying vanities? |
A42498 | whether they which despise holinesse doe not withall despise their owne soules, their God and Saviour? |
A42498 | whether this be not to glory in our shame, to be ashamed of that which is the glory of God, and the reasonable creature? |
A59880 | And why then should we not all unite in such Princes, and forget all former Quarrels? |
A59880 | How came they to be his Soveraign, and He their Subject? |
A59880 | It was a Sarcastical Question of Pilate to the Jews, Will ye crucifie your King? |
A59880 | Return, O Lord, how long? |
A59880 | What Law or Rule made such an Example or President as this? |
A59880 | why should we still divide into Parties, when the Throne is of no Party, and will admit of none? |
A02609 | Againe, knowing God truely and rightly, what could he want in the knowledge of the creatures? |
A02609 | Alas, they brought nothing with them, but pouertie and famine: Was it not altogether for Iosephs sake, whom hee loued? |
A02609 | And Christ hath redeemed the whole substance of man, bodie and soule; Know yee not that yee are bought with a price? |
A02609 | And doe you thinke that he is silent there too? |
A02609 | And is it not a strange amplification of the disease, that brings dishonour, instead of glory to the Physitian? |
A02609 | And is there any vnrighteousnes with God? |
A02609 | And what if the light of Scripture faileth too? |
A02609 | And what tempest could be raised for his sake? |
A02609 | And who could haue desired more? |
A02609 | Are not the soules of many wicked ones in hell? |
A02609 | Are they not all ministring Spirits? |
A02609 | Are we not liberally dealt withall, to haue the fruite of the victorie, and to be exempted from the hazard of fight? |
A02609 | But if the fruite were good, why should it not be tasted? |
A02609 | But the righteousnesse of the righteous, shall be vpon himselfe: what is that to thee? |
A02609 | But when the same person that was creator of all things, became obedient, and obedient vnto death: what is it that his obedience could not worke? |
A02609 | But why should Christians, that are borne of God, take names from men? |
A02609 | Can any thing be more excellēt then the image of him that is authour of all excellencies? |
A02609 | Cappadocia, Asia,& Bythinia; had puritie of faith, eyther amongst themselues, or with S. Peter? |
A02609 | Christo sic eos ponente vt eant,& fructum offerant,& fructus eorum maneat: quis audeat dicere, forsitan non manebit? |
A02609 | Did not he condition with them, that if they sought him, they should let his disciples goe? |
A02609 | Did not these wofull lookes pleade for him? |
A02609 | Doe they not withall steale one moletie of our iustification from God, and transfer it to workes? |
A02609 | Doth he not say, Gloriam meam alteri non dabo? |
A02609 | Doth hee not say, Ego Deus,& non mutor? |
A02609 | Doth hee not therein plainely let vs vnderstand, that all things else must be variable? |
A02609 | Doth it not hold good correspondencie with the rule of Iustice? |
A02609 | Doth it not shew where the image of God was placed? |
A02609 | Doth not our Text tell vs, that his purpose was to make a man, and not a God? |
A02609 | Et in nobis quidem operit multitudinem peccatorum: In te autē domine, quid nisi pietatis thesauros, diuitias bonitatis? |
A02609 | For gluttonie, or intemperance of his throate? |
A02609 | For him hee destroyed many Angels, and sentenced all men: What did the Sonne when he saw the Father so iealous for him, that he spared no creature? |
A02609 | For how was his sinne forgiuen? |
A02609 | For what experience can we haue of this light, that feele nothing but darkenesse within our selues? |
A02609 | For what righteousnesse could they haue, that knew not Christs obedience, which is the righteousnesse of God? |
A02609 | God made man right; and what rightnesse could he haue without a free will? |
A02609 | He answereth roundly, Are there not twelue houres in the day? |
A02609 | Hee was created to the image of God; and is any thing more agreeable thereunto, then true and perfect libertie? |
A02609 | Hee was crowned with glorie and honour; and what honour can there be, where libertie and freedome wanteth? |
A02609 | How so? |
A02609 | How? |
A02609 | How? |
A02609 | How? |
A02609 | I am God, and in me is no change? |
A02609 | I will not giue my glorie to another? |
A02609 | If his obedience be sufficient, there needes no more; if it be not, where is the defect? |
A02609 | If one mans disobedience wounded mee, may not another mans obedience heale me? |
A02609 | If original sinne be of mans substance, must it not needs haue tainted Christ? |
A02609 | If the creature had receiued this, what should the Soueraigne haue reserued for himselfe? |
A02609 | If the diuine nature could haue yeelded obedience, had not his incarnation beene superfluous? |
A02609 | If the diuinitie had bene obedient, it must haue died too; for he was obedient vnto death: and is it possible to haue a mortall diuinitie? |
A02609 | If there were any other means for vs to come to Christ, who would die? |
A02609 | Ioseph would not contend with his brethren, when they had agreed to put him to death: but did hee not vse deprecations? |
A02609 | Is it for his curiositie and vaine loue of knowledge? |
A02609 | Is it not a grieuous necessitie, that he hath conueyed guiltinesse sooner then life? |
A02609 | Is it not a restitution and reparation of that which was decayed or lost? |
A02609 | Is it the lesse for the multitude of sinnes? |
A02609 | Is not the creation, which was the first outward work of the God- head, fitly attributed to the first person, that is of himselfe and of no other? |
A02609 | Is not this Naomie, that beautifull creature, that was like a little god vpon earth? |
A02609 | Is not this to giue a thousand to our Redeemer, and ten thousand to our selues? |
A02609 | Is there any invaliditie in the Fathers acceptation? |
A02609 | Let vs put the case, that God had giuen man such a light as hee could not extinguish: What praise? |
A02609 | Mori& crucifigi& humiliari posset nisi homo? |
A02609 | Nihil boni fecisti& datur tibi remissio peccatorū: It stood in remission of sinne: And is not forgiuenesse of sinne graunted to all alike? |
A02609 | Not so neyther: for, Who hath knowne the minde of the Lord? |
A02609 | Or is it lesse for the infirmitie of our faith? |
A02609 | Shal Sathan? |
A02609 | Shall the righteousnesse of the righteous be vpon himselfe? |
A02609 | Then must the sinne of the sinner be vpon himselfe too: and what is that to mee? |
A02609 | Then you will aske, how he should transmit that sinne to his posterity, that was remitted to himselfe? |
A02609 | Tolerare passiones nunquid posset nisi homo? |
A02609 | Vt vidi, vt perij, vt me malus abstulit error? |
A02609 | Was it for any respect of themselues? |
A02609 | Was it not sufficient that God made him right? |
A02609 | Were it not strange then for him to be authour of that which he doth not loue? |
A02609 | What could escape such a consultation, where the Father aduiseth with his Wisedome, considereth seriously with his holy Spirit? |
A02609 | What greater lustinesse, then that this childe of the earth was not content to be like vnto God, vnlesse he might also be equall with him? |
A02609 | What is contumelious to the gratious benefit of our redemption, if this be not? |
A02609 | What is it then that can make inequalitie in our iustification? |
A02609 | What shall I say of our Regeneration? |
A02609 | What signified the sweete treitment that was giuen to Iacob and his children in Egypt? |
A02609 | What then? |
A02609 | What was it then? |
A02609 | When he addeth, in our image, where can be dissimilitude? |
A02609 | When he beleeued that which the Deuill promised, was hee not very worthie to finde that which God threatned? |
A02609 | When he came to the Sonne of God with swordes& staues, did not the innocent Lamb aske them whom they sought? |
A02609 | When originall sinne is thus extenuated, consider( I beseech you) what, and how little it is that they leaue to the redemption and benefit of Christ? |
A02609 | When sinne had once got hold of his person, must it not needes taint vs all that are partakers of his nature? |
A02609 | When the Deuill and his complices transgressed, the holy Angels did not transgresse: Why? |
A02609 | Where be they then that will needes bee ioynt- purchasers with Iesus Christ? |
A02609 | Where is the terror and defence of their armed men? |
A02609 | Where shall we finde the like? |
A02609 | Wherefore doth God vpbraid him so ironically, that he is now like vnto God? |
A02609 | Wherefore then should not God make man, although hee had a foreknowledge that the man would sinne? |
A02609 | Whereto then serueth this deliberation? |
A02609 | Wherewith is it? |
A02609 | Who can distaste this iustice, or finde any harshnes in it, when both were propounded vnto the man vpon equall termes? |
A02609 | Why did he receiue them, not onely into his common- wealth, but also into his neere familiaritie, and loue? |
A02609 | Why did the gracious King, that knew them not before they were brought vnto him, make them Denizens of strangers; and Citizens of aliens? |
A02609 | Why should I haue anie surplusage from the sinner? |
A02609 | Why should not righteousnesse come from another, when guiltinesse commeth from another? |
A02609 | Why then doth hee call their faith like pretious? |
A02609 | Will you haue a proofe thereof in the matter we handle? |
A02609 | Will you make more then one? |
A02609 | Wist ye not that when the fountaine of all goodnes was forsaken, nothing would remaine but sinne? |
A02609 | You will aske then, how he should haue bin preserued from age, from infirmitie, and from death? |
A02609 | adorned with his image, armed with his authoritie, inspired with his righteousnesse, furnished with an abilitie and power of immortalitie? |
A02609 | and shal not the sinne of the sinner be vpon himselfe too? |
A02609 | and then how should they be creating powers? |
A02609 | and, I haue prayed for thee, that thy faith faile not? |
A02609 | did not they admit of this condition, and let them all escape? |
A02609 | did not they answer, Iesus of Nazareth? |
A02609 | his mind doth vnderstand, but humane things,& not diuine; earthly,& not heauenly businesse: his will doth affect also and desire;& what? |
A02609 | if it were euill, what did it in paradise? |
A02609 | it is most certaine that he tooke our whole substance: how could he be true man, without the substance of man? |
A02609 | nunquid aut alter Christus, aut idem iterum habet crucifigi pro ea? |
A02609 | or was his Counsailor, and hath taught him? |
A02609 | that one man should eate of the soure grape, and all our teeth be set on edge? |
A02609 | that wee should be sinfull before we haue sinned? |
A02609 | transgressors ere wee haue trespassed? |
A02609 | were they not vocall? |
A02609 | what glorie? |
A02609 | what haue I done worthie of this that you goe about? |
A02609 | what retribution should he haue expected for doing well, if he could not haue done otherwise? |
A02609 | what then? |
A02609 | when the father of lights was left, that darkenesse would couer all? |
A02609 | where be they that implore ayde of S. Peter, or S. Iames, or S. Iohn, or any Saint in these affaires? |
A02609 | who hath giuen him first, and he shall be recompensed? |
A58812 | But then if any storm happen to overtake them, whither can they go? |
A58812 | But what reward is comparable to that of a righteous man? |
A58812 | For how can they be secure of any thing that comes from the hand of that God who is enflamed with such a just indignation against them? |
A58812 | What heart can bear up against the terrour of his Thunder- bolts? |
A60947 | But wherein then according to their opinion did this Image of God consist? |
A60947 | For is it not strange, that a rationall man should worship an Oxe, nay the image of an Oxe? |
A60947 | adore Leeks and Garlick, and shed penitential tears at the smell of a deified Onyon? |
A60947 | bow himself before a Cat? |
A60947 | that he should fawn upon his Dog? |
A59891 | And what Thoughts and devout Passions became us then, which are not still on this Day the proper Exercise of our Devotion? |
A59891 | And what is the meaning of this? |
A59891 | But this is the great difficulty; Who shall reveal this Secret to us? |
A59891 | How shall we distinguish between the Corrections of God, and the Wickedness of Men? |
A59891 | Is not God the same still? |
A59891 | Now was all this, do you think, calculated only for Sixty six? |
A59891 | That none can stay his hand, or resist his will, or say unto him, What doest thou? |
A59891 | What could the Fire of London teach us Thirty three Years ago, which it does not teach a wise man still? |
A59557 | But wherein then is there any Profit if not in these things? |
A59557 | How shall we be rendred more useful to the world, if our designs and endeavours as to these matters do take effect? |
A59557 | In all these things, the great enquiry is to be, what good will they tend to? |
A59557 | What is that good that the sons of men are to apply themselves to in order to their living as comfortably as the state of things here will allow? |
A59557 | or having begun, where shall I make an end? |
A58813 | Did they but hate Impiety and Immorality, but half as much as they do Bishops and Liturgies, what excellent Christians would they be? |
A58813 | How can I take Pleasure in making them worse than they are, did I not wish they were so? |
A58813 | That is, both of those that move the Rebellion, and of those that Associate with them? |
A58813 | To what purpose should you tell me a Tragical Story, of the ill Actions or Designs of my Prince? |
A58813 | Why should I be so forward to believe any ill of them, but that Facilè credimus quod volumus? |
A58813 | Why so backwards to believe any Good, but that we heartily wish there were no Cause for it? |
A58813 | how much greater and more Magnificent is this, than to be Dull and stay at home and mind ones own Business? |
A57140 | An vero ei peccata ipsa non Cooperantur in Bonum qui ex eis humilior, ferventior, solicitior, timoratior& Cautior invenitur? |
A57140 | How much more comfortably may we plead it, when by the alone mercy thereof, we remain escaped? |
A57140 | How much more hainous is it to abuse Mercy and Loving kindness? |
A57140 | In so much that other Nations study the English Tongue to read our Books; What Nation hath ever had such manifold, such miraculous deliverances? |
A57140 | That we should remain escaped this day, wherein we have so greatly provoked the Lord, O how admirable and unsearchable the goodness? |
A57140 | That we should so greatly provoke the Lord, this day, wherein we remain escaped: O how prodigious and presumptuous the wickedness? |
A57140 | What Nation hath the Lord Crowned with a greater abundance of all good things? |
A57140 | What Nation in the Earth hath God so honoured with a long possession of his Oracles, and glorious light of his Word? |
A57140 | What means could be used to work upon a people which the Lord hath not made use of amongst us? |
A57140 | and say, thus far hath the Lord holpen us? |
A57140 | doth he appear first unto Mary Magdalen, out of whom he he had cast seven Devils? |
A57140 | doth he look back with pitty upon a a denying Peter? |
A57140 | doth he shew mercy on a Manasseh, filling Ierusalem with blood and Idols? |
A57140 | doth he speak pardon from Heaven unto a persecuting Paul? |
A57140 | hast thou wrought so great deliverances, and done so many wonders, and snatcht us as brands out of the fire, to destroy us at the last? |
A57140 | hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? |
A57140 | how will fire break forth in dry wood, when it hath prevailed against the green? |
A57140 | sinne then shall not break out so far as to annull and to evacuate the Covenant: For who then should be saved? |
A57140 | thou hast delivered, and dost deliver, wilt thou not give us leave to trust in thee for deliverance still? |
A57140 | we are a great people, and the Lord hath hitherto blessed us? |
A57140 | who will say unto him, what dost thou? |
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 | Did any of the damned see you loth and unwilling to embrace this offer, what strange Creatures would they take you to be? |
A44521 | Do these men believe another life do you think? |
A44521 | Do''st thou believe Salvation is the confluence of all Felicity, and dost thou dread an early consideration how thou shalt arrive to it? |
A44521 | Do''st thou contemn God, and hope to escape? |
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 have looked upon my remembring thee as a thing indifferent, which I might observe or neglect at my pleasure? |
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 | Or do''st thou think that thy Soul will be contented with the trash thou feedest thy Body with? |
A44521 | Or what apologies can Mercy make for a person that had rather have the wrath of God than that Mercy for his portion? |
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? |
A59892 | But do not the Angels then thus Worship God in Heaven? |
A59892 | But if the Temple- Worship be a fit Precedent for the Worship of Angels, Why may it not be a Precedent for the Worship of Christians? |
A59892 | But what is it to praise God? |
A59892 | Does he praise God best, who composes the best Anthems, or Sings them best? |
A59892 | Does it consist merely in the Harmonious Melody of Voices, and Musical Instruments? |
A59892 | If there be no force in Musick to give a Good or Bad Tincture to the Mind, Why do any men complain of Wanton Songs? |
A59892 | Is it only to sing aloud, and to make a joyful noise to God? |
A59892 | Why then should any Man think Musick improper for the Worship of God? |
A59562 | Are there not twenty Families for one that live without so much as the shew of any Devotion? |
A59562 | But when a Man hath done this, to what purpose is it for him to trouble himself any further? |
A59562 | But, is there any thing of this to be seen among us, except in some few persons here and there? |
A59562 | If the Case be thus with us, as I am afraid it is; What Plea have we to put in for our selves? |
A59562 | O my Brethren, what have we to say to these things? |
A59562 | What a lamentable Prospect have we of this Kingdom of what may come upon us? |
A59562 | Where was there ever more Atheism and Infidelity to be seen in a Country that professed the Religion of Jesus Christ, than is among us at this day? |
A59562 | Without any sort of Prayer or Worship of God in their Houses? |
A59562 | that they would fear me, and keep all my Commandments always, and why so? |
A59887 | In speaking to which words, I shall Inquire, What may be called the doings of the Lord? |
A59887 | Shall Tribulation, or Distress, or Persecution, or Famine, or Nakedness, or Peril, or Sword? |
A59887 | That the Joys of Paradise are not greater than a Crown? |
A59887 | This may be thought a very needless question; for are there any Events, Good or Evil, which are not God ● s doing? |
A59887 | What it is to be dumb, and not to open our Mouths? |
A59887 | What may be called the doing of the Lord? |
A59887 | Who then Shall jeparate us from the love of Christ? |
A47528 | Alas, whilst every Mans Hand at Sea and Land is up against God, fighting against him; can we expect he should appear to fight for us? |
A47528 | And also what Divisions, Discord and Animosities are there among Professors? |
A47528 | Are such Laws made and executed, to check and restrain the cursed enormities of the ungodly? |
A47528 | But what will these men do in the day of Wrath? |
A47528 | Did not the Lord against whom they had sinned? |
A47528 | Doth God''s word confirm it to be a Truth? |
A47528 | Doth not my present Employment bring me in Food and Rayment, and ought not I therewith to be Content? |
A47528 | He spoiled Pharaoh, and the Egyptians, by an Army of Frogs, Locusts, Lice, Flies,& c. What wonders did he do with 300 Men? |
A47528 | He 〈 ◊ 〉 and made Supplication;& also said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me, Gen. 32 26 And he said, What is thy Name? |
A47528 | How did he wrestle with God? |
A47528 | How doth it concern us to Acknowledge God, for Preservation and a Blessing in all things? |
A47528 | How lively are our Spirits, and active our Graces, when God vouchsafeth his Divine Influences, and quickens us in our Duties? |
A47528 | How low should we lie every one of us, and labour to find out the plague of his own Heart; and to smite on our Breasts, and say, What have I done? |
A47528 | I know not the Lord; I am the Soveraign Lord of Egypt, and I own no other Superiour here; What Lord hath Authority and Power over me, to command me? |
A47528 | If God had not a perfect knowledge of all things, how could he govern the World? |
A47528 | Is it not for a deliverance from our Miseries, rather than from our Iniquities? |
A47528 | Is it not, because those two things have been, as it were, the Idols of England, or of Multitudes among us? |
A47528 | It should not be, What Air, or what Earthly Profit may I find there, where I am going? |
A47528 | Know assuredly, That none Teaches like God: What is Man''s teaching? |
A47528 | Moreover, what Errors and detestable Heresies do abound among us? |
A47528 | O what horrid Pride, Uncleanness, Oaths and Blasphemy, and all Prophaneness do we see and hear of every day? |
A47528 | O where is the Life and Power of Religion? |
A47528 | Shall I not run my self into Temptations by doing it? |
A47528 | Shall not the Judge of all the Earth do Right? |
A47528 | There is no Wisdom nor Understanding nor Counsel against the Lord: What Encouragement is here to seek to God? |
A47528 | Thirdly, How we should acknowledge God, or after what manner he found in this Duty? |
A47528 | Thus reason with thy Self; say, Shall I consult with Flesh and Blood, and gratifie my Corrupt part? |
A47528 | VVho gave Jacob to the Spoil, and Israel to the Robbers? |
A47528 | VVill it not offend God, or stumble my weak Brother? |
A47528 | What Heavenly Comfort do we meet with, or have we met with at one time more than at another? |
A47528 | What signifies a few formal Prayers, whilst men hold fast their sins? |
A47528 | What was that good? |
A47528 | When you fasted and mourned,& c. did you( saith the Lord) fast unto me? |
A47528 | Who shall say to him, What dost thou? |
A47528 | Will it turn to the Glory of God? |
A47528 | Will this remove make for the profit of my precious Soul? |
A47528 | Would they have God to Patronize their wickedness? |
A47528 | and what a famous Judge and Ruler did God make him to be? |
A47528 | but is the Gospel Preached there, in the Purity of it? |
A47528 | can I have communion with godly Christians there? |
A47528 | or, Bless such that God doth Curse? |
A47528 | or, Is it not rather for Corn, Wine, and Oyl, that we cry to God this day? |
A47528 | or, Will not my Spiritual Loss be more than my Earthly gain? |
A47528 | perhaps she was fair, but he consulted not with God: but, How well did Abraham''s Servant succeed, in obtaining a Wife for Isaac, his Master''s Son? |
A47528 | so in the other case; say, Will not more snares attend that Calling I am about to enter upon? |
A57542 | And can any one in his right senses reflect upon these things, and yet neglect the working out his salvation with fear and trembling? |
A57542 | And now what is there that shall be able to dismantle the spirit of a man thus fortified? |
A57542 | And what an encouragement must it needs be to serve and fear that God, who is thus able to think upon you that you perish not? |
A57542 | But what do I speak of these things? |
A57542 | Dost thou presumptuously go on because thy misfortunes hitherto have not been worse than other mens? |
A57542 | Fear ye not me, saith the Lord? |
A57542 | Now what sensible analogy or correspondence is there betwixt a Stone and these glorious effects which proceed from it? |
A57542 | So the Ship- master came to him, and said unto him, What meanest thou, O Sleeper? |
A57542 | That the proper Effect of Dangers by Sea should be to awaken mens minds, and raise them up unto acts of Devotion; What meanest thou, O Sleeper? |
A57542 | What meanest thou, O Sleeper? |
A57542 | What use of the torrid and frigid Zones? |
A57542 | how would the Russian dissolve under the Line, and a Native of Guinea grow stiff upon the Coasts of Spitsberge? |
A57542 | or rob him of his resolution and his courage? |
A57542 | to what purpose serve the barren Deserts, inaccessible Mountains and craggy Rocks? |
A59570 | And now, if all these things be true( as they certainly are) how natural is the conclusion of my Text? |
A59570 | And, what can we desire more? |
A59570 | Are not these Extraordinary Instances of God''s Kindness to a People? |
A59570 | Fear not,( saith he to his Disciples) Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? |
A59570 | How many Open Attempts against our Laws and against our Religion hath He by strange Providences brought to nought? |
A59570 | How many Secret Conspiracies against our Protestant Kings and Queens, hath God Almighty''s Mercy detected and defeated? |
A59570 | O Lord, what a gloomy dismal Scene of things do they present us with, that give other Accounts of these matters? |
A59570 | Or, what words can we invent that shall declare more fully the thing we are speaking of? |
A59570 | This is the notion of the Lord''s being King; and, Do you not think it ought to be matter of Rejoycing to all Reasonable Creatures? |
A59570 | What have we All to do? |
A59883 | 3dly, This is the wounded Spirit, and such a wounded Spirit, who can bear? |
A59883 | Away all ye vain Delights will such a man say, what have I to do with Pleasure, when Torments, everlasting Torments, must be my Portion? |
A59883 | But a wounded spirit, who can bear? |
A59883 | Can he be wanting in his care of us, or in good will to us, who made us? |
A59883 | Can he mistake our Condition, who knows our Frame? |
A59883 | Can we our selves, or the kindest Friend in the World, chuse better for us than God? |
A59883 | Do we suspect his Wisdom, or his Goodness? |
A59883 | Had we rather be miserable for ever, than suffer some present want and pain? |
A59883 | The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity, but a wounded spirit, who can bear? |
A59883 | What Courage can any Man have against Himself, against the Wounds and Disorders of his own Mind? |
A59883 | What is it we desire, but to be happy? |
A59883 | and if God intends our happiness in his severest Corrections, why should we complain? |
A35941 | 1, THe Lord is my light, and my salvation; whom shal I fear? |
A35941 | 10. Who is this King of glory? |
A35941 | 12. Who can understand his errors? |
A35941 | 3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? |
A35941 | 4 Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail, our lips are our own: who is Lord over us? |
A35941 | 5, 6. v. 1 HOw long wilt thou forget me( O Lord) for ever? |
A35941 | 8 Who is this King of glory? |
A35941 | And now, Lord, what wait I for? |
A35941 | And why so? |
A35941 | As with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me: while they say daily unto me, Where is thy God? |
A35941 | Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? |
A35941 | For if the foundations be destroyed, what shall the righteous man do? |
A35941 | For in death there is no remembrance of thee, in the grave who shal give thee thanks? |
A35941 | For the question is moved, What are the marks of the members of the Church invisible? |
A35941 | For this is the force of the Prophets reasoning, In the grave who shal give thee thanks? |
A35941 | For thou art the God of my strength, why doest thou cast me off? |
A35941 | For when the prophet considereth the glorious heavens& c. he asketh, What is man? |
A35941 | For who is God, save the Lord? |
A35941 | For, The King shall joy in thy strength, O Lord, and in thy salvation how greatly shall be rejoyce? |
A35941 | Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledg? |
A35941 | Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? |
A35941 | He that ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? |
A35941 | How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily? |
A35941 | How long will ye love vanity, and seek after leasing? |
A35941 | How long will ye turn my glory into shame? |
A35941 | How long wilt thou forget me, and hide thy face? |
A35941 | I will say unto God, My rock, why hast thou fore gotten me? |
A35941 | IN the Lord put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain? |
A35941 | If the foundation be destroyed, what can the righteous do? |
A35941 | LOrd, how are they increased that trouble me? |
A35941 | LOrd, who shall abide in thy Tabernacle? |
A35941 | Lord, how long wilt thou look on? |
A35941 | MY God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? |
A35941 | Mine enemies speake evil of me: When shal he die, and his name perish? |
A35941 | My soul is also sore vexed: but thou ▪ O Lord, how long? |
A35941 | My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God? |
A35941 | My tears have been my meat day and night: while they continually say unto me, Where is thy God? |
A35941 | O ye sons of men, how long wil ye turne my golry into shame? |
A35941 | Seeing thou hatest instruction, and castest my words behinde thee? |
A35941 | Shall it declare thy truth? |
A35941 | Shall not God search this out? |
A35941 | The King trusteth in the Lord: What then? |
A35941 | The believer may promise to himself whatsoever God hath promised unto him; hath God promised to give his own people the victory over their enemies? |
A35941 | The truely godly joyne one with another, in seeking? |

A57160 | God hath a controversy, plead he will; and as he called for Adam when he hid himself, Adam where art thou? |

A57149 | And here a needfull Question may be proposed, How farr forth a Minister may make use of Humane wit or learning in the service of the Church? |
A57149 | But if they have the boldnesse to commit sin, should not we have the Courage to reprove it? |

A57149 | Or do we not hate our brethren when we betray their souls to perdition? |
A57149 | Shall Christ by them beseech you, and will you by your Impenitency refuse him? |
A57149 | Shall the Minister in the name of God, forewarn us of the wrath to come, and shall we belye the Lord, and say It is not he? |

A59895 | A Fanatick, a true Protestant Plot? |
A59895 | And can these men then think to pull down and to set up Princes at their pleasure? |
A59895 | And why should we not unite in this Church? |
A59895 | It is demonstrable, we can unite no where else; and is it a desirable state, to be perpetually strugling and contending with intestine Commotions? |
A59895 | Shall we then unite with the different Sects and Parties of Christians, which are among us? |
A59895 | Shall we unite in Popery? |
A59895 | Who can without horrour consider, what a distracted face of things we had seen at this day, had this Plot taken effect? |
A59895 | by what Mark or Test, they would have distinguished Friends from Enemies? |
A59895 | shall it be called Persecution for Religion, to punish Traitors, or to keep under a factious and turbulent Spirit? |
A59895 | to be hating, reviling, undermining, each other? |
A59895 | who knows, who should have acted his part in that Tragedy? |
A52045 | Are there not abundance to be found, who take no notice of Gods gracious dealing to them? |
A52045 | But alas, most men are infinitely mistaken in this dutie, a thankfull man who can finde? |
A52045 | But beloved, where is your thankfulnesse for all these mercies to be found? |
A52045 | But will some say, all this labour might have been spared, is there any man who will not praise God? |
A52045 | Did they praise him for their broidered garments, their fine floure, oyle, and honey, wherewith God clothed and fed them? |
A52045 | Did they praise him for their sonnes and daughters when they sacrificed them unto devils? |
A52045 | Do we render to God according to his infinite mercies vouchsafed to us? |
A52045 | Doth the man live who is not willing and ready to give God the praises due unto his Name? |
A52045 | First, who is the man that may praise God? |
A52045 | How have you observed the goings of your God and King amongst you? |
A52045 | I can tell you where the houses are that are full of mercies, but who can tell me where true thankfulnesse may be found? |
A52045 | In our praises we are said to blesse, honour, exalt, magnifie, and glorifie God; can any creature be thought worthy or able to do this? |
A52045 | It was said of Claudian, that he wanted matter suitable to the excellency of his wit: but where is the head or heart suitable to this matter? |
A52045 | Lord what wouldst thou have us do to testifie that we are sensible of thy goodnesse? |
A52045 | Mark now what follows, But unto the wicked, saith God, what hast thou to do to take my covenant into thy mouth? |
A52045 | Now let your servant be bold with you, what glory and honour do you return to God? |
A52045 | Quid retribuam? |
A52045 | Then had the Churches rest and peace; and what use made they of their peace? |
A52045 | Was this thankfulnesse? |
A52045 | What shouldest thou now do? |
A52045 | What then is to be done? |
A52045 | Who can utter these mighty works of the Lord, who can shew forth all his praise? |
A52045 | With what admiring thoughts are your hearts filled? |
A52045 | bite the stone( like a dog) that strooke thee? |
A52045 | contend with the instrument? |
A52045 | how strongly have you engaged and consecrated your selves and all which you have for his service and glory? |
A52045 | or wherewith shall we be thankfull? |
A52045 | what Reformation appears in your hearts and lives? |
A52045 | what cost are you at for this God? |
A52045 | who required these things at thy hands? |
A30620 | All these things considered, what cause have any of Gods people to be impatient? |
A30620 | And can we think God doth not order his Creatures, and govern, and dispose of them, with as much wisdome as he made them? |
A30620 | And ha''nt we cause? |
A30620 | And if God do but what he may, what are we, that we should complain? |
A30620 | And is there not reason then for you to be dumb, and to hold your peace? |
A30620 | And must he not go, or will you be troubled if he go, when his Father and yours sends for him? |
A30620 | And what wrought him to this pass? |
A30620 | And will ye now be angry, and impatient, that God should rather have his will done, than you yours? |
A30620 | And yet with what admirable patience doth he take it? |
A30620 | Bethink your selves; Is not he who now afflicts you, one whose will you have often crossed? |
A30620 | But can there be any good reason why you should be tormented, because God hath made one of yours happy so soon? |
A30620 | But dare any of you undertake that? |
A30620 | But in these Herse- cloaths this young Catechist you see Bound up, a little volum of Divinity; But why so fast? |
A30620 | But shall we give and take? |
A30620 | But what need we any farther witnesses of this truth? |
A30620 | But who made your thought the rules that God must go by in the ways of his providence? |
A30620 | But whose mouth must not presently be stopt, if God should say to us in our impatiency, what? |
A30620 | But you will say to me, Do you think you can perswade us to all this? |
A30620 | Consider, Doth not be afflict you, whom you have provoked to deal a great deal worse with you? |
A30620 | Did I say, the afflictions of Gods Saints come from one that intends them no hurt? |
A30620 | Did d Saul do Jesse any wrong, or did he think it would be so interpreted, when he sent for his son David to come and wait upon him at Court? |
A30620 | Did you either make his Soul, or so much as one part or member of his Body? |
A30620 | Did you frame him, and fashion him? |
A30620 | Do not ask me how? |
A30620 | Do we not all stand amazed at that Wisdome, by which the Heavens and Earth, and all Creatures in both were made? |
A30620 | Doth he not storm, and rage? |
A30620 | Ergo abiisse preces in sumos? |
A30620 | Have ye not often made this your petition unto his Majesty? |
A30620 | He would oft ask his Sister( who was somewhat younger than himself) whether she trusted in God, and loved God? |
A30620 | Hearken once more, u Shall there be evil in the City, and the Lord hath not done it? |
A30620 | His Father asked him, why he thought so? |
A30620 | His Father speaking to him one day about the Devil and Hell, and things of that nature, asked him if he were not afraid to be alone? |
A30620 | Hoc solum longae pretium virtutis habebis? |
A30620 | How calm is he? |
A30620 | How doth he take all this? |
A30620 | How far from murmuring? |
A30620 | How few such of his age are to be found? |
A30620 | How fit and meet is it they should be dumb under his afflicting hand? |
A30620 | How oft doth he destroy whole Kingdomes, and lay them wast, and not make breaches in private families only? |
A30620 | How often must I break your reeds ere you will learn to take heed of leaning over much upon them? |
A30620 | If we do it really and in good earnest, why do we repine when God takes but that, which is not only his own, but which we have freely given him? |
A30620 | If we do not mean to give up our selves, and ours to God, why do we play the hypocrites, and pretend it? |
A30620 | If you do not know those things already, why not? |
A30620 | If you say, I may as well bid one in a cold fit of an Ague, that he should not be chill: How can I be patient under such sufferings as mine are? |
A30620 | Ille hic qui tenui modulatus arundine Caelum est, Inter caelestes non Cherubinus erit? |
A30620 | Is not this God who afflicts you, he whose will ye have prayed may be done on earth, as it is done in heaven? |
A30620 | Is not this mocking of God? |
A30620 | Is the Cup God hath given you to drink so bitter, that all those things are as good as nothing to sweeten it? |
A30620 | Jobs wife was set on by the Devil to perswade her husband to this,( l) Curse God( saith she) and die: wilt thou still retain thy integrity? |
A30620 | L. SAy, is''t not a sacred injury to rehearse Past griefs, and make you suffer o''re again in verse? |
A30620 | May we not liken thee To Solomon in''s youth? |
A30620 | May you( think you) set light by his will, and must he, mean while, do nothing to displease, or thwart yours? |
A30620 | Must I come and ask your advice, and take your direction for what I am to do? |
A30620 | Must I do nothing before I have first called you to counsel? |
A30620 | Must my Wisdome be taught by your folly? |
A30620 | Must things either be ordered as we judge fit, or else will we deny or doubt of Gods having any hand in them? |
A30620 | Must you have a liberty to cross God, and God none to cross you? |
A30620 | Must you not confess your selves to be fools, and unfit to be of his Counsel? |
A30620 | No doubt he had sinful risings and motions in his heart( who doth not feel them?) |
A30620 | Now what doth the Psalmist do in this case? |
A30620 | Now when r God exacteth less of us than our iniquities deserve, what cause is there of complaining? |
A30620 | One to whom you have walked contrary? |
A30620 | Or do you think it equal? |
A30620 | Or if any one had been wanting, could you have made up that defect? |
A30620 | Repent( replyed his Father) do you know what repentance means, and what belongs unto it? |
A30620 | Secondly, Affirmatively, How then is this dumbness to be understood? |
A30620 | Shall I make Creatures for mine own sake, and shall not I( without your leave) dispose of them as I please? |
A30620 | Shall not I( for all you) do what I think fit with mine own? |
A30620 | Shall we not much rather be in subjection to the father of spirits? |
A30620 | Some of Gods people have been so afflicted, that they might say, b Is there any bodies sorrow like unto my sorrow? |
A30620 | Sweet St. was''t to keep pace in Hymns The hallowed Reason, with those winged Cherubims? |
A30620 | Tell me, Is not God who hath taken your Child, he whose your Child was, infinitely more than he was yours? |
A30620 | That so many thousand things, so various all the world over, should be governed and ordered by a providence? |
A30620 | That spake the word, and caused all things to come out of nothing? |
A30620 | Though you might challenge more interest in him, than any upon earth, yet what was your interest in him, if compared with Gods? |
A30620 | To have part in Christ, to have Union and Communion with him, is there any thing in the World worth the talking of the same day with it? |
A30620 | To know God and Christ, what an infinite mercy is it? |
A30620 | Was it not your ambition he might go to heaven, and will you be troubled overmuch now he is gone? |
A30620 | We are apt to think, how can this be? |
A30620 | What a deal of service might he have done to God( in all likelihood) had he lived to old age? |
A30620 | What a deal of service might he( in time) have done for God? |
A30620 | What an instrument might he have been of Gods glory? |
A30620 | What an instrument of Gods glory might he have proved? |
A30620 | What can be more clear? |
A30620 | What exception then can any man make against his Dominion, and absolute Soveraignty? |
A30620 | What got Pharaoh by standing it out against God, and resusing to humble himself? |
A30620 | What is the World and all that is in it unto God? |
A30620 | What shadow of an objection can there lye against his Title? |
A30620 | What thing is it that He can not bring out of any thing, that d commanded the light to shine out of darkness? |
A30620 | What was it, that could possibly make a man take all this so patiently? |
A30620 | When men meddle with persons and businesses, that they have nothing to do with, it is unsufferable, and who can bear it? |
A30620 | Who could chuse but be struck dumb, if God should say, Where''s l the man that darkneth counsel, by words without knowledge? |
A30620 | Who is that? |
A30620 | Who made this Law? |
A30620 | Who u ever hardned himself against him and prospered? |
A30620 | Whose heart would not have been struck dead within him, by those tidings wherewith Samuel g acquainted Eli from God? |
A30620 | Why then do you not lay your hands upon your mouth, and acquiesce in what he doth as best of all? |
A30620 | Will none of those things, will not all of them countervail those losses and afflictions you are under? |
A30620 | Will ye never leave digging to your selves broken Cisterns? |
A30620 | Will you make vows to God, and break them when ye have done? |

A30620 | doth he not despond, and despair? |
A30620 | e Nay, but O man, who art thou that repliest against God? |
A30620 | ergo dolori Indulgere? |
A30620 | for zeal, may we not thee compare To Israels singer? |

A30620 | l I am vile, what shall I answer? |
A30620 | o Do ye reap any thing, but what ye have sown? |
A30620 | p May not God walk contrary to you, as well as you walk contrary to him? |
A30620 | shall he that should of right be whipt with Scorpions, grumble when he is but corrected with rods? |
A30620 | so great, so suddain, so unexpected, so irrepairable? |

A01554 | And may it therefore, for ought we know, proue the estate of each of vs? |
A01554 | And the like Reduplication is found also elsewhere, where hee saith, k How long shall the wicked, O Lord? |

A54040 | And he that walks according to this rule, can he err in so walking? |
A54040 | And they who are taught by him to keep it( and do faithfully keep it) do they not inherit this Promise? |
A54040 | Are not these of the true Seed of Jacob( who prevail with the Lord for the blessing?) |
A54040 | Are there any now among the Sons of men, whose light hath risen in obscurity, and whose darkness hath become as noon- day? |
A54040 | Are there not many Professions and sorts of Professors at this day, who in Gods sight fall short of this state, and yet think highly of themselves? |
A54040 | Are they not the same which the Soul is to walk in? |
A54040 | But did God create him to destroy his heritage? |
A54040 | By whom do they gather together, who gather together against such a people? |
A54040 | Did he not walk in the Light of Gods Spirit? |
A54040 | Doth God require such fasting or praying of any man? |
A54040 | Doth not God teach his Children in the new Covenant to observe this fast? |
A54040 | Every tongue that riseth up in judgment against them, doth not the holy Tongue condemn? |
A54040 | Hath not God created the Waster to destroy? |
A54040 | How did Christ walk? |
A54040 | Is it inferior in nature to the Fast before mentioned? |
A54040 | Is it the Law- Sabboth, or the Gospel- Sabboth? |
A54040 | Is not the just mans path and his dweling place all one, even the Light of the Living, which he is both to walk and abide in? |
A54040 | Is not this the Heritage of the Servants of the Lord, in this our day? |
A54040 | Now, doth not he give forth a measure of the same Spirit, of the same Anointing, of the same Power to become Sons unto all his? |
A54040 | Or will God suffer him so to do? |
A54040 | They that keep Gods holy Sabboth, do they not delight themselves in the Lord? |
A54040 | Was not the Covenant of Life so adorned in the Apostles days? |
A54040 | Was not the Father alwayes with him? |
A54040 | Was not the fulness given him? |
A54040 | What are the Paths that are to be dwelt in? |
A54040 | What is the fast which God requireth, and will accept in all Ages? |
A54040 | What was the Transgression and the Sins which the Prophet was not to spare them in, but lift up his Voice like a Trumpet against them for? |
A54040 | Who can understand or learn the fast, but he that is taught of God? |
A54040 | and are not they to walk according to the measure of Light and Life they receive from him? |
A54040 | and do not such as come to this state( even to be married to the Lamb) partake more abundantly of his redeeming ● ower and holy Presence? |
A54040 | and doth not he limit him in the midst of his destroying work? |
A54040 | and doth not the Lord say( what ever men say to the contrary) that their Righteousness is of him? |
A54040 | and hath not he power over him? |
A54040 | and is she not so adorned now again? |
A54040 | and will he not be as tender of his spirit ● ● l Israel, in the day of his redeeming and delivering them? |
A54040 | do they not feel the pleasure of his Day, and of his Appearance in his day? |
A54040 | in Subjection to Gods Spirit? |
A54040 | or will the Lord accept such fasting or praying at any mans hand? |
A54040 | whose Windows God makes of Agates, and her Gates of Carbuncles, and all her Borders of Pleasant Stones? |
A17304 | A day for a man to afflict his soule, is it to bow down his head as a bulrush,& to spred sackcloath,& ashes vnder him? |
A17304 | Againe was not Ioshua a type of Iesus Christ? |
A17304 | Againe, what was Achans sin? |
A17304 | And are not the prayers of Iesus effectuall? |
A17304 | And are the Troublers of our Israel so concealed, as wee need Diuine Lotts to discouer them? |
A17304 | And doth not our royall Ioshua the like? |
A17304 | And doth not the King call you The great Councell of Vs, and of our Kingdom? |
A17304 | And doth not the effectuall feruent prayer of a righteous man auaile much? |
A17304 | And how well doth it become all Ioshua''s and Rulers of Gods people, to bee thus tenderly affected with the good or evill of Israel? |
A17304 | And shall not the judge of all the world do right? |
A17304 | And was it not of the spoyle of Iericho? |
A17304 | And was not Achan a Prince in Israel, of the regal Tribe? |
A17304 | And what wilt thou doe vnto thy great name? |
A17304 | And where the Lord makes the search, what place for lurking? |
A17304 | And why did it not succeed well? |
A17304 | And your Councell, was it euer more necessarie, then now, wherein the Troublers of Israel haue almost gotten the vpper hand? |
A17304 | And, Dii caeptis aspirate meis,& c. should not Israel much more? |
A17304 | Any more then the taking of a Babylonish garmēt, 200 shekels of siluer,& a wedge of gold of 50 shekels? |
A17304 | Are any afraid, least the Kings Liege people should chuse such as are Popishly affected, or of factious Spirits? |
A17304 | Besides, if they had knowne it, how ready would they haue beene to purge or to punish it? |
A17304 | But Israel hath sinned sayth the Lord to Ioshua; Wherefore lyest thou thus vpon thy face? |
A17304 | But by what meanes doth God search out Achan? |
A17304 | But did you therein seeke Gods glory first? |
A17304 | But how doe they goe about the scruting to finde out the troubler of Israel? |
A17304 | But how shall Achan with his privy palliated sinne, bee found out? |
A17304 | But how stands this with reason or equity, that one mans sin ingages a whole Land? |
A17304 | But was not Ioshua''s prayer and fasting aualeable? |
A17304 | But what might be the cause of this discomfiture,& consternation of Israel? |
A17304 | But what might the discomfiture bee, to moue so great a mourning? |
A17304 | But what was Achans sin? |
A17304 | But who doe more hinder or preiudice the King in his necessarie and Royall Subsidarie Supplyes, then such Factours? |
A17304 | But who might those Achans be? |
A17304 | Can God be angry with his people, for whom Iesus prayeth? |
A17304 | Did not the Lord bid them goe? |
A17304 | Fast and pray? |
A17304 | For now the heathen might say, Where is now their God? |
A17304 | For what neede authority and power bee armed with impotent hasty passion? |
A17304 | From this verse to the 16 is contayned the Lords charge to Ioshua, Get thee vp; wherefore lyest thou thus vpon thy face? |
A17304 | Hast thou beene sufficiently sanctified, when thine Elders were assembled? |
A17304 | Hee had conveyed his Sacriledge and theft so cleanly, by his dissimulation, as no man was privy to it, to accuse him ▪ Who then shall finde him out? |
A17304 | How doth Israel then stand charged with it? |
A17304 | How is that? |
A17304 | How much more is this verified of such sin, when it is once come to a head and full height? |
A17304 | How much more the loue of idols, and images themselues? |
A17304 | How should that redound to Gods glory? |
A17304 | How so great a sin then? |
A17304 | How so? |
A17304 | How so? |
A17304 | How then came the Tribes to be beaten againe? |
A17304 | How would they haue weighed such stollen sacred wedges in the ballance of the sanctuary? |
A17304 | How? |
A17304 | If a Grecian or Romane Citizen were so deare to their Emperours, how much more an Israelite to Ioshua? |
A17304 | If our Iesus pray, can wee his Israel perish? |
A17304 | Is Israels case no better? |
A17304 | Is it such a fast, that I haue chosen? |
A17304 | Is this so great a matter to moue the most couragious Generall Ioshua to rent his cloathes? |
A17304 | Is this the condition required in Israels fast? |
A17304 | Lastly, how neerely doth the weale or woe of the subjects touch the Prince? |
A17304 | Might not his persō challenge so much of the spoyle, at least for his share? |
A17304 | Might not so great a personage desire to reserue such a Babylonish Relique for a monument? |
A17304 | No, not a beadroule of Prayers, Why? |
A17304 | O Lord( saith he) what shall I say, when Israel turneth their backs before their enemies? |
A17304 | Poore Israel, what wilt thou doe? |
A17304 | Shall Israel be culpable for one mans offence? |
A17304 | Shall not God search this out? |
A17304 | Shall not the iudge of all the world do right? |
A17304 | Shall not the judge of all the world do right? |
A17304 | Should ye not heare& c? |
A17304 | So that being at a full period,( And what wilt thou doe to thy great name?) |
A17304 | Such as say, with our tongue will we prevaile, our lippes are our owne, who is Lord ouer vs? |
A17304 | Take away Iustice, and where is Right? |
A17304 | This was that which troubled Ioshua, that he said, And what wilt thou doe vnto thy great Name? |
A17304 | To perswade they are for the King, when they seeke to strip him of his Subiects? |
A17304 | To perswade, they are for the Sheepherd, when against his Sheepe? |
A17304 | To perswade, they honour the Father, when they would set him against his louing Children, and loyall Family? |
A17304 | To perswade, they loue the Head, when they seeke to pull it from the Body? |
A17304 | True, But what favour? |
A17304 | Was hee not a holy and a vertuous Prince? |
A17304 | Was it not Achan alone? |
A17304 | Well what did Ioshua and the Elders of Israel here? |
A17304 | Well, hauing thus sanctified themselues, what followeth? |
A17304 | Well, what of this? |
A17304 | What a Paradox is This? |
A17304 | What a snare would they haue found it, to haue deuoured so much sanctified, and after the vow so to haue inquired? |
A17304 | What bee those? |
A17304 | What followes? |
A17304 | What if Achans sins be not expiated? |
A17304 | What if Israel herein had beene guilty? |
A17304 | What if it had bin not only thought of, but concluded& enacted, not among, but before all other things? |
A17304 | What if many in Israel play the hypocrites in their fast? |
A17304 | What if the Enemy had taken courage,& vsed this oportunity, in Israels consternatiō? |
A17304 | What is that? |
A17304 | What more is required? |
A17304 | What reason, is this, Israel hath transgressed; for Achan tooke of the accursed thing? |
A17304 | What reigne was euer more famously peaceable, then that of Salomon? |
A17304 | What sinnes? |
A17304 | What then doth the Lord require in Israels fast? |
A17304 | What then? |
A17304 | What was the losse of 36 men? |
A17304 | Wherefore haue we fasted, say they, and thou seest not? |
A17304 | Wherein specially did they play the hypocrites? |
A17304 | Who would not imagine that this fast was rather to expiate Naboths imaginary blasphemy, then to satiate Ahabs lust for his hereditary vineyard? |
A17304 | Why Israel? |
A17304 | Why not Ioshua much more? |
A17304 | Why so? |
A17304 | Why? |
A17304 | Why? |
A17304 | Will not many prayers serue the turne? |
A17304 | Wilt thou call this a fast,& an acceptable day to the Lord? |
A17304 | Would Israel then proceed well, and prosper in their execution of Iustice vpon those that trouble Israel? |
A17304 | Yea how was David touched only for a disgrace his servants suffered from the King of Ammon, whom he had sent in kindnes to congratulate? |
A17304 | Yea, and those sage Elders of Israel with him? |
A17304 | Yea, haue not heathen Captaines showed the like affection to their Citizens? |
A17304 | Yet they aske counsel of the Lord, saying, Shall I goe vp againe to battaile against the children of Beniamin my Brother? |
A17304 | as vve shall see afterwards? |
A17304 | betweene God and Baal? |
A17304 | shall all Israel perish? |
A17304 | shall wee halt betweene two opinions? |
A17304 | what saith the proclamation? |
A17304 | yet in his olde age, doting on his idoles, by reason of his strange wiues, how did this trouble Israel? |
A60613 | And can we think there''s never a tear, never a petition due? |
A60613 | And whose life can be safe against him, who can think he does God good service to murther him? |
A60613 | Are we with the Apostles in a sinking ship, and shall we not with them lift up our voices, and say, Lord, save us or we perish? |
A60613 | But besides this, can not a wise and pious heart, as things are at present, find any thing else, that begs the charity of his Prayers? |
A60613 | Did God allow him an Oak to cover him, and shall we turn it into a Cross to crucifie him? |
A60613 | Do these need no share in a time of Prayer, no concern in the offices of our daily Devotions? |
A60613 | Is any man afflicted( or sad?) |
A60613 | Is any man merry? |
A60613 | Is there no case, wherein we stand in need of the counsel and the aid, the care and protection of a merciful God? |
A60613 | Lastly, Is any man surpriz''d with the ruling passion of a sensual love? |
A60613 | This was Davids Yet, and can we not celebrate as great an one for our gracious Charles? |
A60613 | What is meant by praying without ceasing or continually? |
A60613 | Where''s your Prayers, your addresses for help? |
A60613 | that is, the constant attendance on that duty will alleviate the burden of a sorrowful and discontented mind? |
A61621 | And can there be any greater Argument of the want of Consideration, than for Persons to suffer themselves to be so easily and so fatally cheated? |
A61621 | And did not his Conscience charge him with the Guilt of them? |
A61621 | But what a melancholy reflection doth he make on all these Pleasures of Life? |
A61621 | Could Heaven stoop lower than it hath done to vile and ungratefull Sinners? |
A61621 | For, who can set bounds to Fancy, or lay a reasonable Restraint upon Desires, if the Differences of Good and Evil be taken away? |
A61621 | How came he then to need a Prophet to be sent to him, and to deal so plainly with him, as to tell him Thou art the Man? |
A61621 | How can such Passages as these be Reconciled, if we look on them as expressing the sense of the same Person? |
A61621 | What then is the meaning of these words? |
A61678 | 20? |
A61678 | And of the former sort, either there remain some, or not; if not, Who should complain? |
A61678 | Could that meaning think you excuse them? |
A61678 | For first, I would know of such people, who are apt to be taken with this reasoning, What Godly party it is they would fain follow? |
A61678 | Nay, but my Brethren what an inconsequence is this? |
A61678 | The enquiry would rather be, Whether the man professing Christ, doth it really, inwardly from his heart, or not? |
A61678 | What a monstrous wicked good meaning was this; Christ calling his chief Disciple Devil- for''t? |
A61678 | What? |
A61678 | saith St. Augustine, Shall we steal from the Rich to give unto the Poor? |
A61637 | And indeed, VVhere can we find on Earth so safe, or so comfortable a Retreat, when Calamities assail, or threaten us, as here in the House of our God? |
A61637 | And may not God bespeak us too, the People of England, in the same language? |
A61637 | Are the Younglings frighted with a Storm? |
A61637 | Commit thy way unto the Lord, and He shall bring it to pass: But walk in it thy self; how is it else thy way? |
A61637 | Doth not his Cross stand over it on purpose, to direct us hither, when we are ready to sink under the Burthen of our own? |
A61637 | Doth the Kite, or Hawk, the Tyrants, and Freebooters of the Air, hover over and threaten? |
A61637 | If Calamities do come,( and who is wholly exempt from that common Tax, and Tribute of Mortality?) |
A61637 | If in good Earnest we would be rid of this Legion, and say, as our Lord to the deaf and dumb Spirit, Go out, and enter no more;( What shall I say? |
A61637 | Is it too hot? |
A61637 | Or is it too cold? |
A61637 | We all of us have Wings of our own too; Faculties, and Abilities, that must be us''d,( Why else were they given us?) |
A61637 | Would we put in then for David''s share in the Priviledge, God''s Mercy, and Protection to our King, and to our selves? |
A61600 | And what do all these things mean? |
A61600 | But supposing men keep within the bounds of justice and common honesty, yet how unsatiable are the desires of men? |
A61600 | Can you then look upon my ruines with hearts as hard and unconcerned as the stones which lye in them? |
A61600 | For when were they ever more secure& inapprehensive of their danger than at this time? |
A61600 | Had the Leprosie of your sins so fretted into my Walls, that there was no cleansing them, but by the flames which consume them? |
A61600 | Had we no other way of trying the continuance of Gods goodness to us, but by exercising his patience by our greater provocations? |
A61600 | Have I suffered so much by reason of them, and do you think to escape your selves? |
A61600 | Must I mourn in my dust and ashes for your iniquities, while you are so ready to return to the practice of them? |
A61600 | Shall there be evil in a City, and the Lord hath not done it? |
A61600 | Was there no way to expiate your guilt but by my misery? |
A61600 | Was this our requital to him for restoring our Soveraign, to rebell the more against Heaven? |
A61600 | Was this our thankfulness, for removing the disorders of Church and State, to bring them into our lives? |
A61600 | Who can have any sense of the anger of God discovered in it, and not have his fear awakened by it? |
A61600 | and what will the issue of them be? |
A61600 | the Christian, to be profaned by the unhallowed mouths of any who will venture to be damned, to be accounted witty? |
A39695 | 10 ▪ ● ill he delight himself in the Almighty? |

A39695 | God is rich to all that call upon him, what a treasure may I get this hour, if the fault be not in my one heart? |
A39695 | God judges them, but they judge not themselves; he shews their iniquities in a clear glass, but none saith, What have I done? |
A39695 | Good, you will say where lyes it? |
A39695 | Hath he less malice ● ● gainst your Souls than others? |

A39695 | Have I not some secret reserves in my heart, notwithstanding that face and appearance of zeal which I put on? |
A39695 | How did that poor worm swell under that tryal into the conceit of a God? |

A39695 | I will melt them and try them; what other course shall I take with them? |
A39695 | I? |
A39695 | Iesurun sucked honey out of the rock, eat the fat of Lambs, and kidneys of wheat; but what was the effect of this? |

A48438 | 17, 18, That when he was old, he could plead an old acquaintance with God? |
A48438 | 24,) Consider one another; What to do? |
A48438 | 28, We know that all things( says the Apostle) work together for good, To whom? |
A48438 | 28, Why is his Chariot so long in coming? |
A48438 | 5, 6, 7, Who being in the form of God, thought it no robbery to be equal with God, Gods fellow, coequal with the Father: What did he do? |
A48438 | 9, That the heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked, who can know it? |
A48438 | And every Saint, while he is in the wilderness, in his Wilderness- state, leans on his beloved: What would a Saint have in any condition? |
A48438 | And here came in the great question, But how shall I know that God in Christ will accept me? |
A48438 | And will you not yet come off from this world, but the longer you live, you will love the world so much the better? |
A48438 | And will you, dare you neglect your special work? |
A48438 | Be there not among them such, as are like Ephraim? |
A48438 | Be there not careless men and women among us, that do not yet look out after Christ? |
A48438 | Besides, have you no eyes, no ears, to see, and hear, that many dye dayly and weekly? |
A48438 | But for the relief of such, God reasons thus, Didst ever love me? |
A48438 | But is it always so? |
A48438 | But then came this question, These are marks and signs that belong to such and such Saints in Scripture: But what is this to thee? |
A48438 | But what is it that is intended by this expression, early to seek the Lord? |
A48438 | But what shall we do to seek him? |
A48438 | Can you think of losing your Friends, and your God too for ever? |
A48438 | Consider what was the great errand upon which God sent you into the world? |
A48438 | Didst ever love Jesus Christ, and the Children of God? |
A48438 | Do you not yet know, that you are going to appear before the Judgment- seat of Christ? |
A48438 | Doth Christ thus call, and will you not regard, nor answer this call? |
A48438 | Friend, I must dye, Animula, vagula, blandula, quos nunc ad ibis locos? |
A48438 | From whence? |
A48438 | Have you any true love for God? |
A48438 | His arguing thus with a doubting soul; Try thy self; can not you bear a leaving of God? |
A48438 | How many pretty little ones are every day taken away before your eyes? |
A48438 | I have often thought of that Scripture with joy, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thy self unto me, and not unto the world? |
A48438 | If one should ask me this question, Why is the promise made to those that love God? |
A48438 | Is it not high time, that something of the concernments of another world should interpose between your life and your death? |
A48438 | Is there wisdom and understanding always among the aged? |
A48438 | Many( says Christ) will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? |
A48438 | Poor flitting, dear departing soul, whither art thou going? |
A48438 | Read the begining of the Chapter, Doth not wisdom cry? |
A48438 | So the soul of a Saint looks out at every cranny, at the eye, and at the ear, and cries out, Why tarries his Chariot? |
A48438 | So we should say to our hearts, Dost thou love Jesus Christ? |
A48438 | The believing soul says so; And who can but live and dye on such a word as this is? |
A48438 | To whom doth she cry? |
A48438 | Was not here love? |
A48438 | What are the Galleries? |
A48438 | What doth she call to them for? |
A48438 | What then will be his next call? |
A48438 | What then? |
A48438 | What will be the difference betwixt Saints and Sinners, with respect to death at last? |
A48438 | When did ever a straying Sheep seek the Shepherd? |
A48438 | When ever did the wild- Goats look after one to lead them? |
A48438 | Whence doth that difference arise? |
A48438 | Whence that difference doth arise? |
A48438 | Would you be willing to dye, and be damn''d? |
A48438 | Would you leave this world, and be content to be turn''d into Hell, and be punished with the Devil and his Angels? |
A48438 | Would you see the fruits and effects of this Love? |
A48438 | Yea, better than Heaven it self without Christ? |
A48438 | You say, you have no strength, no might, so that you are not able to do any thing to please God: Why, what is the matter? |
A48438 | and in thy name done many wonderful works? |
A48438 | and in thy name have cast out Devils? |
A48438 | and understanding put forth her voice? |
A48438 | and understanding put forth her voice? |
A48438 | and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? |
A48438 | and why art thou disquieted within me? |
A48438 | consider, do you love God? |
A48438 | dost love him better than all creature- comforts and relations? |
A48438 | dost love him better than all earthly treasures, better than thy estate, better than all the world, better than all these? |
A48438 | dost thou love him better than these, than these Children, these pretty little Idols that are set up before our eyes? |
A48438 | dost thou love him indeed and in earnest? |
A48438 | for who maketh thee differ from another? |
A48438 | how many goodly plants,( that God had planted in his own house) have of late been plucked up by the roots, and laid in their Graves? |
A48438 | or that is more exactly and perfectly pure and holy, that is, more lovely than Christ? |
A48438 | that do not provide for the welfare of their souls, but are cumbred about many things, as Martha was? |
A48438 | then doubt not that he will leave you: would you know whether God loves you? |
A48438 | was it not better with you then, than now? |
A48438 | why is he so long in coming? |
A48438 | why tarry the wheels of his Chariots? |
A67068 | If any aske, How then can it be done if he will not and be not pleased? |

A57129 | Or, who is able truly to judg of all affairs, and rightly to discern what in every case is to be done, or left undone? |
A57129 | Others read the words with an interrogation, Is it not good for a man that he eat,& c.? |
A57129 | Others, retaining the marginal reading, render it thus, by an interrogation, For who will be joyned, to wit, with the dead? |
A57129 | Others, who hath quicker senses to discern the comforts of them, then I? |
A57129 | Seeing there be many things which increase vanity, what is man the better? |

A27981 | 16 A mountain that flows with milk, a rich mountain; Why have you a suspition of mountains that flow with milk? |
A27981 | 16 Who in the mean time will take take my part against the wicked? |
A27981 | 17 But to the sinner God has said, why do''st thou declare my laws? |
A27981 | 18 Thou that hast hated discipline, And hast cast behind thee my precepts? |
A27981 | 19 Into what desolation are they fallen? |
A27981 | 2 How long therefor will you judge unjustly? |
A27981 | 2 How long will my thoughts perplex my soul? |
A27981 | 2 My soul thirsts after the mighty, and the living God; when shall I come, and appear before the face of God? |
A27981 | 2 Our Lord is the protector of my life, who shall make me tremble? |
A27981 | 2 Who shall relate the wonders of our Lord? |
A27981 | 20 Will the seat of injustice have communication with thee, who hast made thy precept painfull, and laborious? |
A27981 | 22 How many, and how great afflictions and dangers hast thou made me under go? |
A27981 | 23 Will not God ask an account of these things? |
A27981 | 24 For what have I to wish for in heaven, Or what is ther upon the earth for me to desire, but only thee? |
A27981 | 24 Is he likewise able to give us bread, and provide a table in the wildernes for all his people? |
A27981 | 26 But, as to the wicked, thou wilt cast them, O God? |
A27981 | 26 Let them see thy hand in it; And And that it is thou, O Lord? |
A27981 | 26 Why do''st thou turn away thy face? |
A27981 | 3 How long must my enemy be exalted over me? |
A27981 | 3 How long, O Lord? |
A27981 | 3 My tears have been my bread both day& night, whilst they continually upbraid me, with saying, where is thy God? |
A27981 | 3 What shall J render to our Lord for all the benefites J have received from him? |
A27981 | 3 What will be the just reward of a deceitfull tongue? |
A27981 | 3 Who shall ascend to the mountain of our Lord? |
A27981 | 3 Yee sons of men, how long will your hearts be stupid? |
A27981 | 34 For who is God but our Lord? |
A27981 | 36 For why has the impious man provoked God? |
A27981 | 38 Thou hast reversed the covenant made with thy servant? |
A27981 | 4 How long shall they vant, and utter their iniquitys? |
A27981 | 4 Who have said, our tongues shall magnifie us, our lips are our own, And who is our Lord? |
A27981 | 43 Who is the wise man, that will keep in memory thes things? |
A27981 | 45 How often did they exasperat him in the desert, and provoke his anger in places without water? |
A27981 | 47 What man is there alive that must not see death? |
A27981 | 5 For the dead have no remembrance of thee; and in hell who will praise thy holy name? |
A27981 | 5 My enemies with evill minds have sayd of me when will he dy, and his name be extinct? |
A27981 | 5 They have consulted how to cover their snares, And they have said, who can find them out? |
A27981 | 5 What is man, that thou should''st be mindfull of him? |
A27981 | 5 Who is like the Lord out God? |
A27981 | 5 Will it not be sayd to Sion, that multitudes of men have been born ther, And that the most high himself was the founder of it? |
A27981 | 5 Will they not understand? |
A27981 | 5 Wilt thou for ever be incensed against us? |
A27981 | 6 And I have said, who will give me the wings of a dove, that I may fly away, and find a place to rest in? |
A27981 | 6 He casteth forth his ice like morsels: Who can endure the rigour of his cold? |
A27981 | 6 How long, wilt thou feed us with the bread of tears, and give us tears in abundance to drink? |
A27981 | 6 Offer a sacrifice of justice, and put your confidence in our Lord; many say, who will shew us good things? |
A27981 | 6 Whither can J go to be concealed from thy spirit? |
A27981 | 6 Why art thou sad my soul? |
A27981 | 7 A brother wil not redeem a brother, will a man vvho is a stranger redeem him? |
A27981 | 7 All his precepts are inviolable; established for all ages? |
A27981 | 7 For who in the heavens can equall our Lord, and who amongst the sons of God, shall be like to God? |
A27981 | 7 He will remain for ever in the presence of God; who can search to the bottome his mercy, and his truth? |
A27981 | 7 Thou hast powred oyle upon my head, and my inebriating cup how admirable is it? |
A27981 | 7 Will God eternally cast us off? |
A27981 | 8 They will open their mouths; And there is a sword in their lips; They will say who has heard us? |
A27981 | 8 Who is the king of glory? |
A27981 | 8 Who out of Sion will give salvation to Israel? |
A27981 | 8 Will he for ever, from generation to generation cut off his mercy from us? |
A27981 | 8 Will they not one day know me? |
A27981 | 82 My eyes languish with longing after thy promises, saying, when wilt thou comfort me? |
A27981 | 84 How many are the days of thy servant? |
A27981 | 9 Can God forget his mercy, Or will his anger allways keep back his commiseration? |
A27981 | 9 He that formed the ear, will he not hear? |
A27981 | 9 Man in his youth how shall he correct his ways, but by following thy precepts? |
A27981 | 9 They came to a wicked resolution against me; but he that sleeps, may he not rise up again? |
A27981 | And whither shall I fly to be out of thy sight? |
A27981 | And why do I walk in sorrow, afflicted by my enemy? |
A27981 | And why do I walk in sorrow, persecuted by my enemy? |
A27981 | And why do''st thou assume into thy mouth my covenant? |
A27981 | And why do''st thou disquiet me? |
A27981 | And why do''st thou disquiet me? |
A27981 | And why do''st thou disquiet me? |
A27981 | And will he never think of being more favourable to us? |
A27981 | And wilt thou not go forth with us at the head of our armys? |
A27981 | But what has the just man done? |
A27981 | Do''st thou despise us in the time of our tribulations? |
A27981 | How long wilt thou turn away thy face from me? |
A27981 | Is it in vain that thou hast created the sons of men? |
A27981 | Not to us, But to thy name give glory; 10 By making manifest thy mercy and thy truth, Least at any time the Nations should say, Wher is their God? |
A27981 | Or the son of man, that he should merite thy consideration? |
A27981 | Or the son of man, that thou should''st visite him? |
A27981 | Or who shall rest in thy holy mountain? |
A27981 | Or who will stand by me against the workers of iniquity? |
A27981 | Or will I drink the blood of goats? |
A27981 | Quae autem conditio, quis rerum humanarum status, quem Psalmista non instruat aut arguat? |
A27981 | Shall the Adversary provoke thy name for ever? |
A27981 | They who work iniquity, and devour my people, like a morcel of bread? |
A27981 | WHy dost thou glory in Mischeif Thou that art power full in Wic kednes? |
A27981 | What outrages has not the enemy committed in the sanctuary? |
A27981 | Who is like to thee? |
A27981 | Why do you love vanity, and seek after lyes? |
A27981 | Will it be for ever? |
A27981 | all they who work iniqnity, and who devour my people, as a morcell of bread? |
A27981 | and he who made the eye, will he not see? |
A27981 | are thy former mercys, which in thy truth thou hast sworn to David? |
A27981 | art my strength; why hast thou cast me off? |
A27981 | art thou afflicted? |
A27981 | art thou retired so far from us? |
A27981 | deliver us, and pardon our sins for the sake of thy name; 10 Least it should be said amongst the Gentils, where is their God? |
A27981 | do''s the number increase of those who persecute me? |
A27981 | do''st thou forget our poverty and affliction? |
A27981 | doest thou reject my prayer? |
A27981 | hated thos who hate thee? |
A27981 | he that gives knowledge to man will he not know? |
A27981 | how admirable is thy name over all the earth? |
A27981 | how admirable is thy name over all the earth? |
A27981 | how long will thy anger be kindled like fire? |
A27981 | how long will thy anger make thee deaf to the prayer of thy servant? |
A27981 | how long will you have partiall respect to the persons of sinners? |
A27981 | how long wilt thou neglect us? |
A27981 | is allways holy; What God is ther so great, as our God? |
A27981 | is it not in our Lord? |
A27981 | leap like rams? |
A27981 | like the lambs of the flock? |
A27981 | look towards me; why hast thou forsaken me? |
A27981 | or does the most high know all things? |
A27981 | or who shall stand in his holy place? |
A27981 | shall sinners, how long shall sinners triumph? |
A27981 | shall the Enemy reproche? |
A27981 | what drove thee back? |
A27981 | what is man that thou shouldst m ● ke thy self known to him? |
A27981 | what made thee fly? |
A27981 | when wilt thou judge thos who persecute me? |
A27981 | when wilt thou look towards me? |
A27981 | which thou hast layd up for such as fear thee? |
A27981 | who a while since rejected us; And wilt thou not go forth with us at the head of our armies? |
A27981 | who a while since rejected us? |
A27981 | who can stand before thee? |
A27981 | who is like to thee? |
A27981 | who is like to thee? |
A27981 | who shall be like to thee? |
A27981 | who shall dwell in thy Tabernacle? |
A27981 | who shall save his life from the power of the grave? |
A27981 | who will conduct me into the midle of Idumea? |
A27981 | why art thou afflicted? |
A27981 | why art thou so incensed against the sheep of thy pasture? |
A27981 | why dost thou turn away thy face from me? |
A27981 | why hast thou wholy cast us off? |
A27981 | will thy anger always burn on lik a fire? |
A27981 | willt thou turn away from me? |
A27981 | wilt thou extend thy anger from generation to generation? |
A27981 | wilt thou forget me? |
A61862 | And all this only to gratifie a Lust? |
A61862 | And now I come to reason with you hereupon, What shall we say to these things? |
A61862 | As if we cared not for his Favour? |
A61862 | As if we were resolved to offend him? |
A61862 | But now, to come nearer to you, What have you done for God? |
A61862 | But particularly, what little Correspondence have we born towards that infinite Mercy of restoring the true Religion to us? |
A61862 | Hath Sin deserved better of me than God hath? |
A61862 | Have God''s Mercies made us any whit the better? |
A61862 | Have not the Lives of many of us been such, as if they were led on purpose to confront him? |
A61862 | Have we not kicked against him, when he hath sed us to the full? |
A61862 | Have we thus required the Lord, foolish People and unwise? |
A61862 | How frothy and unchristian have our Words and Discourses been? |
A61862 | How have we trampled upon our Inferiors, and oppressed our Underlings? |
A61862 | How insolently have we carried our selves? |
A61862 | How often have we sinned against God, when with the same Ease we might not have sinned, or have done somewhat that might have pleased him? |
A61862 | How so? |
A61862 | How unjust and unrighteous, and uneven our Dealings? |
A61862 | If we have been in Adversity, how unadvisedly have we spoken with our Tongues? |
A61862 | If we have been in Prosperity, how forgetful have we been of him? |
A61862 | Nay are we not the worse? |
A61862 | Quid est Christianismus si Pax absit? |
A61862 | Shall I be guilty of so gross Ingratitude to my dearest Benefactor? |
A61862 | Shall I dishonour my God? |
A61862 | Shall I displease him? |
A61862 | Shall I sooner listen to a Passion, to a Folly, than to my God? |
A61862 | Was ever more disingenuity or folly known? |
A61862 | What strange Stupidity possesseth us, that we carry our selves so untowardly toward the best Friend we have in all the World? |
A61862 | What? |
A61862 | Where has your Gratitude, your Loyalty been to him? |
A61862 | be not so weak, to suffer so vile a thing as Sin to impose upon thee? |
A61862 | said Erasmus, What is Christianity it self without Peace? |
A62591 | And do we think all this is to be done in an instant, and requires no time? |
A62591 | And is this a reasonable hope? |
A62591 | Are thy passions and lusts yet unsubdued, and have they had no other mortification than what age hath given them? |
A62591 | But if we were sure that happiness would come again, yet why should we put it off? |
A62591 | But why for a little while? |
A62591 | Do we think that when the day hath been idlely spent and squandered away by us, that we shall be fit to work when the night and darkness comes? |
A62591 | Does any man know how to be safe and happy to day, and can he find in his heart to tarry till to morrow? |
A62591 | How late is it then to begin to live well, when thy life is almost at an end? |
A62591 | If a mans life lay at stake, and he had but one throw for it, with what care and with what concernment would he manage that action? |
A62591 | Is this a fitting encouragement for a wise man to give to himself, to any action? |
A62591 | Seneca expostulates excellently with this sort of men; Who shall ensure thy life till that time? |
A62591 | That we may delay and put off to the last, and yet do all this work well enough? |
A62591 | To conclude: Art thou convinced, that thy eternal happiness depends upon following the advice which hath now been given thee? |
A62591 | thou art just ready to dye, and hast thou not yet begun to live? |
A62591 | what reasonable or acceptable service can we then perform to God? |
A62591 | when our candle is just sinking into the socket, how shall our light so shine before men, that others may see our good works? |
A62591 | why till to morrow? |
A12100 | & was not Isaac Abrahams heire? |
A12100 | 15. and shall wee sport in the delights of this life, and the sensualitie of our owne flesh? |
A12100 | 25? |
A12100 | 6. then again, how great is this death which lieth vpon vs? |
A12100 | 7. where hee speaketh of the same thing; Who shall deliuer me from the body of this death? |
A12100 | A sonne honoureth his father, and a seruant his master: If I bee a father, where is my honour, and if I bee a master where is my feare? |
A12100 | Againe, let vs come to the duties of the second table, and aske what is the cause why wee can not liue within the compasse of them? |
A12100 | Againe, why doth the poore mans childe arise in learning? |
A12100 | And againe in the fift chapter, What could I haue done any more vnto my vineyard, that I haue not done vnto it? |
A12100 | And againe, what is the cause of this negligence of parents? |
A12100 | And how came Timothie to be such a famous scholler of so worthy a master as Paul was, but because hee had knowen the holy scriptures of a child? |
A12100 | And was not Iacob, the great father of the twelue Patriarkes, Isaaces sonne& heire? |
A12100 | And why doest thou not see how that the Lord by this yoke would prepare thy sonne for another yoke? |
A12100 | But O thou vnwise man labouring of the streightnes of vnderstanding, hast thou prouided for thy sonne liuelihood? |
A12100 | But here peraduenture some man wil say, haue not I enough to leaue my child? |
A12100 | But how do we answere this carefulnes of our heauenly father? |
A12100 | But what is this zeale that we may know it and followe it? |
A12100 | But what will some be readie to answer in this case? |
A12100 | Can a maide forget her ornament( sayth the Lord) or a bride her attire? |
A12100 | Cast your eyes then vpon your inheritance which shall not wither? |
A12100 | For Salomon sayth, Seest thou a man hastie in his wordes? |
A12100 | For from whence commeth this monstrous apparell, but from the wanton and dissolute education of youth? |
A12100 | For the pride of all nations, and the follies of all countries are vpon vs, how should wee long beare them? |
A12100 | For what is the great glorie of God but his omnipotencie and power? |
A12100 | For whence comes warres? |
A12100 | For who should teach and informe the childe, but they which haue the gouernment and commaunding of him? |
A12100 | For without labour how should Schooles be maintained? |
A12100 | Hath the Lord been barren vnto vs, or as a land of darknesse? |
A12100 | Haue I beene as a wildernesse vnto Israel, sayth the Lord? |
A12100 | How art thou fallen from heauen O Lucifer sonne of the morning? |
A12100 | I am wearie of my life for the daughters of Heth, if Iacob take a wife of the daughters of Heth, what auaileth it me to liue? |
A12100 | If God should come towards vs with the legge of his iustice onely, alas who might abide him, and who should stand before him? |
A12100 | If glorie be in her left hand, then what is in her right hand but the life eternal? |
A12100 | If thou O Lorde streightly markest iniquities, O Lord who shall stand? |
A12100 | If thou O Lorde streightly markest iniquities, O Lord who shall stand? |
A12100 | If thou takest displeasure against vs, who shal turne thee to mercy? |
A12100 | If we speake of strength, behold he is strong: if wee speake of iudgement, who shall bring me in to pleade? |
A12100 | In like māner also whē the Lord gaue the law of this his seruice vnto his people vpō moūt Horeb, what fearefull signes did he send before? |
A12100 | Is there no baulme at Gilead, saith the Prophet Ieremy? |
A12100 | Is there no time to shew our duetie towards men, but euen then when we are about Gods seruice? |
A12100 | Is this religion? |
A12100 | Moreouer, what is the reason why euen in the seruice of God one Christian goeth before another? |
A12100 | Now from whence commeth all this mischiefe and the cause of this great miserie both vpon children and parents? |
A12100 | Now hath Christ our Sauiour giuen himselfe to doe so much for vs, and shall wee giue our selues to securitie and liue as wee lust? |
A12100 | Now what was that he had spoken vnto him? |
A12100 | Now( beloued) shall the Lorde lose his ende by our negligence, and bestow all his labour in vaine, and shoote as it were at a wrong marke? |
A12100 | Now, shall wee doe more for our Prince then we would for God? |
A12100 | O had not wee neede now bee a deare and louing spouse vnto our husband Christ, who hath bought our loue with his owne death? |
A12100 | O if a man had a crowne alwaies in his eye, what would hee not doe to come by it? |
A12100 | O if men would serue the Lord, what plentie of al good things should we enioy? |
A12100 | O what honorable profits and commodities come by this instruction? |
A12100 | O where is now that constraining loue of the Apostle to stirre vp our dull and cold hearts? |
A12100 | Oh if all our duties were done as vnto the Lord, what lights should we bee vnto the world, shining in all honest and godly conuersation? |
A12100 | Oh what a glory is it to the Lorde to saue poore soules that were wandring downe to hell? |
A12100 | Oh whose heart would it not reioyce to see the walles of Gods kingdome raised vp? |
A12100 | Proue mee now herewith, saith the Lord of hostes, if I will not open the windowes of heauen vnto you, and power you out a blessing without measure? |
A12100 | Secōdly, are thy will& affections out of frame, so that thou hast no power of thy selfe to will& desire any heauenly good? |
A12100 | Seeing hee spared not his owne sonne, but gaue him for vs, how shall hee not with him giue vs all things also? |
A12100 | Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I doe? |
A12100 | Should you not crie out, woe worth the day that euer you begate a childe for this place? |
A12100 | So that what is the cause, why euen the best professors many times fall out amongst themselues? |
A12100 | The first is to teach vs our miserie in our selues, contained in these wordes; If thou O Lorde streightly markest iniquities, O Lord who shall stand? |
A12100 | Then some of the Pharisies saide, are we blind also? |
A12100 | This first is made in the person of the honorable: What doe I owe duetie to those that are so farre my inferiours? |
A12100 | VVhat man is he that feareth the Lord? |
A12100 | What doe you weeping and breaking my heart, saith the Apostle? |
A12100 | What is become of the ancient discipline of parents? |
A12100 | What is the cause why there is so little curtesie and so great strangenes amongst vs many times, as though wee were scarse men? |
A12100 | What is this but to preferre men before God? |
A12100 | What must we honour one another? |
A12100 | What seruice can be sufficient for a kingdome? |
A12100 | Why do some wast their strength in pleasures, as the flame which consumeth the tallowe? |
A12100 | Why doe some lift vp the heele against their gouernours like the vntamed horse? |
A12100 | Why doe wee not then see that idlenes is the ruine and destruction of all things? |
A12100 | Why doe wee then stagger vnder our burthens? |
A12100 | With God is mercie, with God is ioy, with God is comfort, with God is light: oh who would not embrace this mercifull and sweete God? |
A12100 | Yet he is of one mind( saith Iob) who can turne him? |
A12100 | You are not called to shewe your owne strength, or your owne vertues, or your own holines? |
A12100 | and how commeth it to passe that the parents own doung is cast in their faces by their own children in mocking& despising of thē? |
A12100 | and how is his power seene but by working? |
A12100 | and how should all honest functions stand? |
A12100 | and how should they leaue that to their posteritie by the right of inheritance which they neuer receiued from their auncestors? |
A12100 | and how should wee see Gods working, and how should we come to the vnderstanding of his omnipotencie, except wee sawe it in his creatures? |
A12100 | and shall not wee nowe endeuour our best to answere the expectation of our heauenly King? |
A12100 | and was not Abraham that great man in those daies and wonderfully rich, as we may reade Gen. 24? |
A12100 | and what paines taking for the fulnes of ioye? |
A12100 | and whence comes it that one neighbour can not liue quietly by another, but he pineth away, and is the worse euery time he seeth his brother? |
A12100 | and where should that honourable troupe of vertues shewe themselues? |
A12100 | and where should that kinglie magnificence be extolled? |
A12100 | and why canst thou not away to carie patiētly the easie yoke of Christ Iesus? |
A12100 | and why doe other enuying the age to come gape vpon all things present like Behemoth, as though they would make an end of the world with themselues? |
A12100 | and why doe some mens labours shine in Gods Church before others? |
A12100 | and why doe we waxe faint in the Lords seruice? |
A12100 | and why doest thou not prouide also that he may keepe it? |
A12100 | and why is hell let loose within our selues, to disturbe all the powers and sences about vs with wicked thoughtes& lusts? |
A12100 | cryeth out, Who can vnderstand his faults? |
A12100 | doe wee not see that painfull labour is the fayre handmayde to all these, and ministreth matter for them to worke vpon? |
A12100 | hath Christ bin tempted for vs, and shall we yeeld to euery suggestion? |
A12100 | hath Christ fasted for vs, and shal we giue our selues to banquetting? |
A12100 | hath Christ suffered persecution,& shal we look to line at ease? |
A12100 | hath Christ watched for vs, and shall wee giue our selues to sleepe? |
A12100 | hath not he made our desert like Eden, and our wildernesse like the garden of the Lorde? |
A12100 | hath not he made the plowman to touch the mower, and the treader of grapes him that soweth seede? |
A12100 | hath not hee in our daies crowned the earth with foyson of all things? |
A12100 | hath not hee made the hilles to droppe fatnes, and the furrowes to reioyce and sing? |
A12100 | how should lawes bee executed? |
A12100 | is he not mine heire and the principall of my strength? |
A12100 | is not hee that God who hath made the light of England to shine tenne times brighter then euer it did before? |
A12100 | is not hee that God who hath planted peace in all our borders? |
A12100 | is there no mercie in God? |
A12100 | is this deuotion becomming Gods house? |
A12100 | so if your sonnes while they dwell idly at home with you, should betake themselues to this folly or that, how could your liues be pleasant vnto you? |

A12100 | why can one better beare the crosse then an other? |
A12100 | why canst thou not endure to beare the labours of Gods seruice? |
A12100 | why doe others liue in continual contentions and fightings, like the sauage wolues and Tygers? |
A12100 | why doe some mens zeale so farre exceede others? |
A12100 | why doest thou thinke it long to heare? |
A12100 | why doest thou thinke much to streine thy heart vnto God in the zeale of thankesgiuing? |
A12100 | why dooest thou waxe faint in prayer? |
A12100 | why is he called to beare office in the Church of God and Common- wealth, and the children of Noblemen and great gentlemen refused? |

A50251 | 14. who can dwell with that devouring fyre? |
A50251 | 20. can any man imagin that here to bear iniquity should signifie to bear it away from himself or from another? |
A50251 | 21. he was made sinn for us, God hath laid on him the iniquity of us all? |
A50251 | 26. but how could he be so, if he should justifie us otherwise then by a righteousness which is exact& perfect? |
A50251 | 29. when hee giveth quietness, who can make trouble? |
A50251 | 44. how c ● … n ● … ee believe, who seek honour one of another, an ● … seek not the honour ● … t commeth from God only? |
A50251 | And how is that meant, when faith is said to be imputed? |
A50251 | And if the question be, But how may I do to believe? |
A50251 | And is it possible they should have any faith, or any true desire of faith, who do no more esteem the meanes therof? |
A50251 | And therfore wheras the poor soul saith, dare I believe? |
A50251 | And what may bee thought of them that despise the ministers of the Gospel? |
A50251 | And yet communicated it must be, else how shall wee be justified by it? |
A50251 | Answ: This will not follow neither: For, can not God love with a love of purpose, but all the effects of that love must needs be exhibited forthwith? |
A50251 | But do you think that Satan will rest here? |
A50251 | But how can this stand with justice, that our sinns, should bee imputed to Christ, and he be punished for them? |
A50251 | But if God do justifie his servants, what need they to bee much troubled, though the world do censure& condemn them? |
A50251 | But if the word be the means of faith, what shall become of Infants, Idiots,& deaf people that can not make use of the means? |
A50251 | But now this also may be questioned by some, Whether our sinns were imputed to Christ? |
A50251 | But what is the work of the Gospel in the begetting of faith? |
A50251 | But what need; much to be said for the comforting of believers? |
A50251 | But what shall be said to Abram, Isaak, Jacob, David, and the rest of the Saints, that lived long afore the Incarnation of Christ? |
A50251 | By what means may this faith be attained? |
A50251 | Did Abram never believe afore now? |
A50251 | For are we not all believers in Christ? |
A50251 | For it seems God doth not save us without satisfaction to himself? |
A50251 | For the explication of this point, it may first of all be demanded, What is the Gospel? |
A50251 | For the meaning of the words; It may be first of all demanded, VVhat is me ● … t by Abrams believing in the LORD? |
A50251 | For who can clear a man but the Judg? |
A50251 | How beautifull are the feet of such men? |
A50251 | How shall a man swim as long as he feels the ground with his feet? |
A50251 | How then may faith& justification be known, that one may have the comfort of the same? |
A50251 | If God do give them faith, and therby do justifie them and pardon their sins, why do they not know it? |
A50251 | If a man be justified in the sight of God when he doth believe and was not so before, then it may seem that God is changed? |
A50251 | If a rich man would bestow some precious pearl that is worth thousands, and thousands of pounds? |
A50251 | If any ask, What should be the reason that when God worketh faith, he should ordinarily& usually do it by his word, and not otherwise? |
A50251 | If then the righteousness of Christ be imputed to us, What was that righteousness of Christ that is imputed? |
A50251 | If this righteousness be imputed to us, doth it not then follow that we are as righteous as Christ? |
A50251 | It is God tha ● … justifieth, who is he that condem ● … th? |
A50251 | May I? |
A50251 | May not faith be wrought by the Law? |
A50251 | Now how are we made sinners by the sinn of Adam? |
A50251 | Now how was Christ made a sinner by our sinn? |
A50251 | Now what is the Gospel, but the doctrine or glad tidings of salvation by Christ? |
A50251 | Reas: 3 The thing that must justifie us, must be a perfect righteousness, as was shewed before; else how shall God be just in justifying us therby? |
A50251 | So that our sinns were the cause of his sufferings; which consideration should be a means& motive for the awaking of our hearts with godly sorrow? |
A50251 | VVhat needs this? |
A50251 | VVhat shall then be thought of them that lightly esteem the word of God? |
A50251 | VVhy then is this mentioned now, as if he had not been a justified believer before? |
A50251 | What can be more free then gift? |
A50251 | What though there be righteousness and merit inough in Christ? |
A50251 | and how commeth it to pass that they are pardoned& justified in heaven, and not in their own consciences also? |
A50251 | and that every believer is a redeemer and saviour of others? |
A50251 | and that the act of faith as it justifieth, is not of the will in receiving Christ, or adhering to Christ, but only an assent of the understanding? |
A50251 | and whether he bare any punishment due to us for our sinns? |
A50251 | can it stand with justice that one should be punished for anothers sin and the innocent for the guilty? |
A50251 | dáre I, saith the soul, apprehend the promise and receive Christ? |
A50251 | how shall he build his house upon the rock, as long as the sand is not by deep digging removed and cast away? |
A50251 | may I do it? |
A50251 | may I do the will of God? |
A50251 | we sure are not Infidels? |
A50251 | which is as if one should say, may I obey the Commandement of God? |
A50251 | who can forgive the debt but the creditor? |
A50251 | who can stand with those everlasting burnings? |
A50251 | will not they be forward of themselves to take the comfort of their justification? |
A67488 | Alas, where is he to be found? |
A67488 | And if the gleanings of Abiezer be such, what will be the Vintage of Ephraim? |
A67488 | First, Who is the Righteous man? |
A67488 | Then farewell Priviledge, for where is the Person? |
A67488 | What Peace and Rest shall these men be priviledged with at the time of their death? |
A39936 | 19. there is a command of God, that it should be penned; and for what end was it? |
A39936 | All the foundations are destroyed, and what can the righteous do? |
A39936 | And doth not this concern us as much as David, and others of the people of God then? |
A39936 | And if God give us more than ordinary joy, why should not we now make more than ordinary expression of it? |
A39936 | And is not singing of Psalmes as fit and proper an expression of our rejoycing in God, as any of those? |
A39936 | And what if God should so farre leave thee, as he hath left some? |
A39936 | And what must this more excellent way be, but that which Gods people formerly departed from, when they made a separation from Rome? |
A39936 | And when have not Gods people occasion so to do? |
A39936 | And why are we not as much scandalized at their praying, as at their singing? |
A39936 | And why may he not as well be said to praise God, when he stirrs up himself to that duty? |
A39936 | And why may not we as well lament our own and others sad conditions, in singing of David''s Psalmes? |
A39936 | And why may we not sing Psalmes for instruction and admonition that we may understand them? |
A39936 | Awake my glory,& c. may he not be well said to pray when he doth so? |
A39936 | Beloved, is not this matter of meditation to us Christians? |
A39936 | But doth not the Land mourn, because of oaths? |
A39936 | But how can we sing such passages as are imprecations against wicked men? |
A39936 | But how can we sing such passages of the Psalmes, as are nothing but exhortations to singing? |
A39936 | But how may we sing David''s Psalmes so as to attain those ends? |
A39936 | But if so, yet, why do they not sing by themselves? |
A39936 | But if we think our selve; bound to read the Psalmes in our own Tongue, why may we not as well sing them in our own Tunes? |
A39936 | But is it so indeed? |
A39936 | But why should any man preferr his Composures before David''s Psalmes, is it because they are more excellent? |
A39936 | Can God reject a sacrifice offered to him from a poor, contrite, broken heart, because that some wicked men are present? |
A39936 | Certainly it is a duty( as hath been proved) that lies upon all Gods people, and to whom shall many of them go for a Psalme, if not to David? |
A39936 | Do the sufferings of Christ, and the fruits of them belong unto thee? |
A39936 | Doth it not concern us to admire the Power, wisdome, and goodness of God in the works of Creation and Providence? |
A39936 | Doth not God here, as it were, judge him out of his own mouth? |
A39936 | For, if we are not tied to a form in praying, why should we be tied up to any form in singing? |
A39936 | Gods people have their fears, and doubts, as he had, and may as truly and justly say, many times, as he did, Why art thou cast down, O my soul? |
A39936 | Hast thou any affection to the Word of God, out of the experience thou hadst of the power of it on thy soul? |
A39936 | Hast thou any sence of sin, and wrath due to it? |
A39936 | Hast thou experience of Gods support, supply, protection, direction? |
A39936 | How do we answer the goodness of God unto us, if there be not affections and expressions suteable to his dispensations? |
A39936 | I answer, we may, and must read; But why not the other also? |
A39936 | I should quite tire the Readers patience, to run through every particular Psalme? |
A39936 | If any shall pretend to such an extraordinary Spirit, I desire to know of them how others shall sing with them? |
A39936 | If it do, why should not we sing the first part of the 19 Psalme, and the 104 Psalm throughout? |
A39936 | If thou art a Christian, shouldest thou not admire and adore the Attributes and Excellencies of God and his Christ? |
A39936 | If thou dost well,( saies God to Cain) shalt thou not be accepted? |
A39936 | If we would chear our spirits, or compose them for hearing or other duties, what more heavenly Meditations? |
A39936 | If we would commend and magnifie the Power, Wisdome, and goodness of God in any mercy, how can we do it better than in the words of David? |
A39936 | Is any merry? |
A39936 | Is it not in the deadness and barrenness of their own hearts, who can let pass such precious matter, without due meditation on it? |
A39936 | Is it nothing to neglect a duty, so plainly, and so particularly injoyned, and prescribed as this is? |
A39936 | Is there not much to be learnt from the 14th Psalme, concerning the folly, and madness of prophane ones, that fear not God, and regard not men? |
A39936 | Is there,( think you) any passage in David''s Psalmes, that a Christian may not meditate upon, and so take comfort in God, and his word? |
A39936 | Let them who have had experience of communion with God in this duty speak, whether they have not found a great raising of their hearts in it? |
A39936 | May we not sing any other Song composed by a common gift, so long as it is spirituall for the Matter? |
A39936 | My heart is fixed, my heart is fixed: or, my heart is prepared? |
A39936 | Nay, I had almost said, is not singing of Psalmes as good an exercise, and becoming Christians, as playing at Cards, or Tables? |
A39936 | Nay, I would fain know with whom they shall joyn? |
A39936 | Now is this nothing to thee? |
A39936 | Now what can be more sweet to any pious soul, than the serious consideration of such gracious and mercifull dealing of God with his people? |
A39936 | Now, if hearing, reading, praying, communicating at the Lords Table be usefull for those ends, why not also singing of Psalmes? |
A39936 | Or how can such a soul chuse but be much inlarged towards the Lord, when it meditates, as it ought, upon such things as these? |
A39936 | Or, how we may sing with grace in our hearts unto the Lord? |
A39936 | Or,( which is all own) how we may sing David''s Psalmes with David''s spirit? |
A39936 | Since therefore we must have a form, why should we not prefer such as God hath appointed before any other? |
A39936 | Since we have the same formes which God himself appointed, why may we not expect the same enlargement of heart, as the people of God had then? |
A39936 | So may we do the like, though wicked men be by, and joyn in the duty, what''s that to us? |
A39936 | So, if thou seckest God in sincerity, from thy very soul, shalt thou not be accepted? |
A39936 | Teaching and admonishing one another in Psalmes? |
A39936 | The Apostle sayes, upon this very account, Is any merry? |
A39936 | The Question is, Whether we should sing Psalmes? |
A39936 | Then how comes it to pass, That Psalmes are forborn, not onely in the Congregation, but in their own houses also? |
A39936 | Therefore I say, Is it thy duty to praise God in a Psalme, or is it not? |
A39936 | Therefore if any be scandalized by them in the one, why not also in the other? |
A39936 | Therefore if you say, why may we not read and meditate without more ado? |
A39936 | Therefore when some cry out, What is this or that to them? |
A39936 | Therefore( say they) What do such men in singing, but sound out so many lies? |
A39936 | We all allow shooting off great gunns, ringing of bells,& c. and why not as well singing of Psalmes? |
A39936 | What a temptation dost thou lay upon thy self by leaving one Christian exercise to cast off others, and at last, all? |
A39936 | What glorious things are spoken of Christ his Kingdome, and the great work of Redemption by him? |
A39936 | What if a man understand not the meaning of what he sings? |
A39936 | What is that Scripture therefore, that doth not concern any childe of God? |
A39936 | What is the meaning( think you) of this? |
A39936 | What though they were penn''d upon occasion, and according to the necessities of Gods people then? |
A39936 | What, doth God never give us occasion to sing a Psalm of praise? |
A39936 | Who can admire and adore the infinite excellencies of God in better phrases and formes ● … han the spirit hath dictated to us in David''s Psalmes? |
A39936 | Why may not any good Christian, in singing that Psalme, act faith, as David did? |
A39936 | Yea, to persist in that neglect, and justifie it? |
A39936 | Yet when we read the Scriptures, I suppose, we many times meet with that which we do not so well understand, shall we not therefore read them at all? |
A39936 | You have the Israelites murmuring and repining against the Lord; and what doth this concern us, will you say? |
A39936 | and are not many wicked ones, all the week long, blaspheming the living God? |
A39936 | and he himself pronounce the sentence, That he is one of those ungodly ones of whom the Psalmist speaks by the spirit in that Psalm? |
A39936 | and how canst thou do it better than in singing David''s Psalmes? |
A39936 | and why art thou disquieted within me? |
A39936 | and why should it be stinted now, more than it was then? |
A39936 | how God doth try and exercise his people with heavy afflictions, and yet when he hath laid them low, he raises them up again, as he did Joseph? |
A39936 | it doth not concern them, nor can they accommodate or apply it to themselves; I ask what''s the matter they can not? |
A39936 | or have we never any hearts to do it? |
A39936 | or is not this another lie? |
A39936 | or where lies the fault? |
A39936 | why mayest thou not sing the sixth, and 38 Psalmes? |
A39936 | why shouldst thou not sing the latter part of the 19 Psalm, and any part of the 119 Psalm? |
A39936 | yea, and blaspheme the holy Name and Truths of God, in doing of that duty? |
A62608 | Especially if God breath upon the Counsels of men, how are their designs blasted? |
A62608 | How are they infatuated and foil''d in their deepest contrivances, and snared in the work of their own hands? |
A62608 | Mother? |
A62608 | Nothing but our Sins can part God and us: Who shall separate us, saith the Apostle, from the love of God? |
A62608 | Now what would any of us do in such a Case, if it were not for God? |
A62608 | So that if God be on our side, who can be against us? |
A62608 | There be many, says he, that say, Who will shew us any good? |
A62608 | This then is the plain meaning of the Text, That nothing in the world but God can make man happy: Whom have I in heaven but thee? |
A62608 | Whom have I in heaven but thee? |
A62608 | shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? |
A66416 | 13, Who will harm you if ye be followers of that which is good? |
A66416 | Come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? |
A66416 | For he saith, are not my Princes altogether Kings? |
A66416 | For what would Rome signify if it had no supremacy over other Churches? |
A66416 | From whence come wars and fightings among you? |
A66416 | what appeals would be made thither? |
A66416 | what directions, commands and grants would be expected thence, if each had as much authority within it self, as that now claims over all? |
A66416 | what do they not threaten and endeavour? |
A66416 | what need any one take a long journey thither, when he may with greater ease and as much certainty have his case resolved at home? |
A67232 | And is this the way to do the King service? |
A67232 | Is this the means whereby to express our loyalty to him, and to obtain the blessing of God upon Him? |
A67232 | come they not hence, even of the lusts that war in your members? |
A67232 | so true is that saying of Saint James, Whence come Wars and fightings amongst you? |
A67232 | what can we otherwise expect, but that great disorder, sad confusion and innumerable Calamities will thereupon inevitably ensue? |
A27939 | 1 DO you that are in Council met,[ Speak and] determine what is just; And justly judge, ye sons of men,[ Indeed] according to your trust? |
A27939 | 1 HOw long wilt thou forget me, Lord? |
A27939 | 1 IN God I put my trust, Why then in scorn say ye, To God for help as silly birds, Unto your mountain flee? |
A27939 | 1 LOrd, in thy Tabernacle Who shall inhabit still? |
A27939 | 1 MY God, my God, O why Hast thou forsaken me? |
A27939 | 1 O God, why hast thou cast us off? |
A27939 | 1 O Mighty man in wickedness, Why boastest thou[ thy self] with pride? |

A27939 | 1 THe King shall joyful be, Lord, in thy strength alone: How greatly shall his heart rejoice In thy salvation? |
A27939 | 1 THe Lord himself my shepherd is, Who doth me feed and[ safely] keep; What can I want that''s truly good, While I am[ one of] his own sheep? |
A27939 | 1 THe Lord my Light and Saviour is, Whom[ therefore] shall I need to dread? |
A27939 | 1 WHy do the rebel Nations rage, And[ People] hatch a vain design? |
A27939 | 10 Even he that seem''d to cast us off, And wilt not thou[ again] O God, Go forth before our warlike hosts, When they[ to fight] do march abroad? |
A27939 | 10 How long, Lord, shall the enemy Thee by reproach[ scorn and] prophane, And shall the adversaries thus Always blaspheme thy[ holy] name? |
A27939 | 10 It''s as a sword within my bones, When thus my foes do me upbraid; When in reproach, Where is thy God,[ To me] I hear it daily said? |
A27939 | 10 Who is he that is King Of Glory? |
A27939 | 10 Who will bring me into The City fortify''d? |
A27939 | 10 Why say the heathen, Where''s their God? |
A27939 | 10 Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? |
A27939 | 11 And thus they say, How can it be That God all this doth[ note and] know; And that there is in the most high Knowledge of things[ done here] below? |
A27939 | 11 Even he that cast us off; And wilt not thou, O God, Again go forth before our Hosts, When ● hey do march abroad? |
A27939 | 11 Is thy love praised in the grave? |
A27939 | 11 It''s soon cut off, and we are gone, Who knows[ aright] thy powerful wrath? |
A27939 | 11 Pluck out and shew forth thy right hand, Why dost thou it[ so long] with- hold? |
A27939 | 11 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? |
A27939 | 12 Are thy great works known in the dark? |
A27939 | 12 What man desireth length of life, And his own good doth[ wisely] seek? |
A27939 | 12 What shall I render to the Lord For all his[ bounteous] gifts to me? |
A27939 | 12 Who can his errors understand? |
A27939 | 13 For thou my soul hast freed From death so near at had; And wilt not thou uphold me now, And make my feet to stand? |
A27939 | 13 How long, Lord, shall we feel thy wrath? |
A27939 | 14 Lord why dost thou cast off my soul? |
A27939 | 16 But to the wicked man, God saith, My word of truth Should''st thou declare? |
A27939 | 16 Who will rise up for me against The wicked doer''s[ cruel] band? |

A27939 | 19 Yea, even against the Lord himself They grudging spake prophanely thus: Can God here in this wilderness A furnish''d table spread for us? |
A27939 | 2 How long shall thoughts disturb my soul, And[ daily] grief my heart assail? |
A27939 | 2 How long will ye unjustly judge, And favour[ unjust] wicked men? |
A27939 | 2 I''le wisely walk in perfect way;[ O Lord] when wilt thou come to me? |
A27939 | 2 Lift up thy self, thou Judge of all, The proud do thou[ check and] reward: 3 How long shall wicked men triumph,[ Even they] that do not God regard? |
A27939 | 2 O sons of men, how long will ye[ The great] God''s glory vilifie? |
A27939 | 2 Thou, Lord, art all my strength, Why do I mourning go, As if I were cast off by thee, Oppressed by my foe? |
A27939 | 2 Why should the heathen people say To us, where is their[ mighty] God? |
A27939 | 20 If we the Lord''s name have forgot, Or[ any] help from Idols sought; 21 Would not God search this out, who knows The[ very] secrets of our thought? |
A27939 | 20 Indeed he smote the rock, and thence There flowed streams of waters great; And can he give his people bread, And provide flesh for them to eat? |
A27939 | 20 Shall the Throne of iniquity Have[ any] fellowship with thee? |
A27939 | 21 Do I not hate them all, O Lord, Who are thy[ hating] enemies? |
A27939 | 25 Whom have I in the heav''ns above[ To trust] but thee my God alone? |
A27939 | 3 How long will ye mischief devise? |

A27939 | 4 Have all these men of wicked works No[ wit or] knowledge left at all? |
A27939 | 4 Have all these men of wicked works No[ wit or] knowledge left at all? |
A27939 | 4 How shall we sing God''s sacred songs, Thus[ Captives] in a foreign land? |

A27939 | 46 How long, Lord, shall it ever be That thou wilt hide thy self in ire? |
A27939 | 47 Remember how short is the time That I must here on earth remain; Wherefore hast thou all mortal men Made to live here as meerly vain? |
A27939 | 48 What man is he that liveth here, And fatal Death shall never see? |
A27939 | 49 The former loving kindnesses Which thou, O Lord, to him didst bear, Where are they now? |
A27939 | 5 How great, O Lord, are all thy works? |
A27939 | 5 How long, Lord,( O not evermore) Shall this thine anger[ towards us] last? |
A27939 | 5 In ill encourage they themselves, And commune how[ closely] to lay Their snares for to entrap the just, For who[ our plots] shall see, say they? |

A27939 | 5 O Lord my God, how many are The wonders thou[ for us] hast wrought? |
A27939 | 5 O who is like to our great God? |

A27939 | 6 This knowledge high''s above my reach,[ It is] too wonderful for me: 7 Whither shall I go from thy face? |
A27939 | 6 Wilt thou not us restore, And quicken us, that we Who are thy people, evermore In thee may joyful be? |
A27939 | 6 Ye mountains great, what was the cause That made you thus to skip like Rams? |
A27939 | 7 And now, O Lord, what wait I for? |
A27939 | 7 For ever will the Lord cast off? |
A27939 | 7 O God, how precious is thy love? |
A27939 | 7 Thall they escape so well In this their wicked path? |

A27939 | 8 For ever is his mercy gone? |
A27939 | 8 O thou that art the Lord of Hosts, What Lord like thee with strength is crown''d? |
A27939 | 8 Thou dost my wandrings tell, Let down thy bottle, Lord, And put in there each briny tear, Are they not on record? |
A27939 | 8 Who is this Glorious King? |
A27939 | 8 Ye brutish people understand,[ Ye fools] when will ye wiser grow? |
A27939 | 84 How many are thy Servant''s days? |
A27939 | 9 By what means may a young man best His life learn to amend? |
A27939 | 9 Can it be that his graciousness[ To us] the Lord forgotten hath? |
A27939 | 9 I said, what gain is in my blood, If to the[ feared] grave I go: Doth silent dust there speak thy praise? |
A27939 | 9 I''le say to God, My Rock, O why Am I[ of thee] forgotten so? |
A27939 | 9 In God and his salvation then My soul shall[ glad and] joyful be; 10 My very flesh and bones shall say, Lord, who[ or what] is like to thee? |
A27939 | 9 Shall he not hear who made the ear? |
A27939 | 9 Who is he that will bring me in The City[ strong and] fortify''d? |
A27939 | Against thy pasture- sheep why doth Thy[ heavy] anger smoak so sore? |
A27939 | Against thy peoples humble prayer Who do thy[ sacred] Name invoke? |
A27939 | And am not I grived with those That[ madly] up against thee rise? |
A27939 | And if premeditated, they must be some way imposed; How else shall the Congregations all joyn in the same? |
A27939 | And in his place of holiness Who shall accepted stand? |
A27939 | And shall thy wrath unreconcil''d Consume and burn us up as fire? |
A27939 | And that his tender mercies he Hath shut up now in[ endless] wrath? |
A27939 | And to all generations Wilt thou thy wrath extend? |
A27939 | And what''s the son of man, that thou[ So much] regard''st and visit''st him? |
A27939 | And who is he that from the grave Can his own life save and set free? |
A27939 | And who will into Edom''s Land My conquering Army guide? |
A27939 | And who will into Edom''s land[ Me and] my conquering armies guide? |
A27939 | And whom on earth do I desire[ And seek?] |
A27939 | And whom wilt thou receive to dwell In thy most holy hill? |
A27939 | And why with grief[ so much] opprest? |
A27939 | And[ will he] gracious be no more? |
A27939 | But are not the Psalms sufficiently by Translation and Metre, already fitted to the Churches use? |
A27939 | Doth death thy faithfulness declare? |
A27939 | Doth dust declare thy Majesty, Or yet thy[ grace and] truth doth praise? |
A27939 | Doth it thy[ truth and] mercy show? |
A27939 | Even near thy holy Altars they May make their safe abode; And why not I, seeing thou art My King and only God? |
A27939 | Fails his[ good] word[ for] evermore? |
A27939 | He that all knowledge teacheth man, What can[ from him] concealed be? |
A27939 | How great their sum? |
A27939 | How long shall cruel enemies[ By pow''r] thus over me prevail? |
A27939 | How long will ye love vanity, And seek and trust a[ flatt''ring] lie? |
A27939 | How long wilt thou displeasedly Thus hide thy[ pleased] face from me? |
A27939 | How low shall they triumph and boast, Who[ plot and] work iniquity? |
A27939 | Jordan, why didst thou backward go? |
A27939 | Learn and be wise, Will only ye The Rebels be, And God despise? |
A27939 | May they not as well scruple reading or saying them in Prose? |
A27939 | Nor[ all things] see, that form''d the eye? |
A27939 | Or is thy truth and righteousness Remembred and mention''d in The land of deep forgetfulness? |
A27939 | Or what''s the son of man, that thou Of him[ so much] account dost make? |
A27939 | Or[ whither] from thy spirit flee? |
A27939 | Or[ who] himself[ can] justifie? |
A27939 | Shall it be[ thus for] evermore? |
A27939 | Shall the dead rise and praise thee here? |
A27939 | Shall thy provoked jealousie Like fire thus always[ burn and] wa st? |
A27939 | The Lord is of my life the strength,[ Of man] why should I be afraid? |
A27939 | The workers of iniquity, Who will against them[ for me] stand? |
A27939 | What gain is in my blood, said I, If[ hasty] death destroy my days? |
A27939 | What is the sum of my desires? |
A27939 | What need any more help of yours? |
A27939 | What sweeter foretaste of the Heavenly Everlasting Praises? |
A27939 | Which in thy truth Thou unto David then didst swear? |
A27939 | Who but our God''s a rock and stay? |

A27939 | Who may this Monarch be? |
A27939 | Who''s like to thee in faithfulness, Which doth thy Throne encompass round? |
A27939 | Why art thou with distrustful thoughts Disquieted in me? |
A27939 | Why by my foes oppression Thus mourning do I[ daily] go? |
A27939 | Why do the Rebel- Nations rage, And hatch a vain design? |
A27939 | Why do the Rebel- Nations rage, And[ People] hatch a vain design? |
A27939 | Why from my roaring voice so far Help and salvation be? |
A27939 | Why is thy face against me bent? |
A27939 | Why so disquieted in me? |
A27939 | Ye little hills, wherefore was it, That you did skip like playing Lambs? |
A27939 | [ O] shall it thus[ for] ever be? |
A27939 | how dar''st thou take My Covenant in thy mouth? |
A27939 | what grieveth thee? |
A27830 | 10. Who is the Great, and Glorious King, Of whom our Praises sing? |
A27830 | 10. Who mee will to the City lead, Fierce Edoms strength and head? |
A27830 | 12. Who knowes how often he offends? |
A27830 | 16. Who will with me against those rise, Who work iniquities? |
A27830 | 2. Who can His mighty acts declare? |
A27830 | 3. Who in God''s Holy Place shall stand; Or on His Hill appeare? |

A27830 | 9. Who me will to the City lead, Fierce Edoms strength, and head? |
A27830 | Afflicted, and in misery, I almost ready am to dy; From youth to age, in lifes each act, Thy suffer''d terrours me distract? |
A27830 | Am I forgot at length? |
A27830 | And in the pit of silence ly? |
A27830 | And loose both Name, and Memory? |
A27830 | At their reproach, with scoffing mixt, I am with swords trans- fixt: Whilst flouting at my misery, Where is Thy God? |
A27830 | Before my foes why do I mourne, Oppressed, and forlorne? |
A27830 | But how shall we sing the Lords Song, His Enemies among? |
A27830 | But teares, which day and night did fall, I had no meat at all: While they, where is thy God do cry, On whom thou dost rely? |
A27830 | But to the bad( Saith God) why should you dare, The Lawes I made, Or Statutes to declare? |
A27830 | But who regards Thy heauy wrath, Or of Thy feare true feeling hath? |
A27830 | Can he, who looses lifes short breath, Remember Thee in death? |
A27830 | Do not I hate, and grieve at those, Whose proud despight against thee rose? |
A27830 | Do then all knowledge thus defy Those workers of iniquity? |
A27830 | Exposing hir to violence? |
A27830 | For if a little that encrease, Where can we seek for Peace? |
A27830 | For who( say they) our acts shall heare? |
A27830 | GOd my Salvation is, and Light: What terrour then shall me affright? |
A27830 | God shall cut off their guile- full tongues, Puft up with pride and wrongs: 4. Who say, Our words their ends shall gaine: What Lord can us restraine? |
A27830 | Hath God His pitty now forgot? |
A27830 | How are their glories, quick as thought, To desolation brought? |
A27830 | How far his sin extends? |
A27830 | How long Lord shall thy jealous ire, Consume us like unquenched fire? |
A27830 | How long O Mortals will ye shame The glory of my Name? |
A27830 | How long shall I lament, and cry, For my delivery? |
A27830 | How long shall I without reliefe Take counsaile of my griefe? |
A27830 | How long shall their insulting tongue Joy in Thy servants wrong? |
A27830 | How long the right will ye reject, And persons of the bad respect? |
A27830 | How long thy closed eare exclude Their Prayers, who to Thee have su''d? |
A27830 | How long will mischiefe ye devise? |
A27830 | How long will ye love vanities, And take delight in Lies? |
A27830 | How long wilt Thou looke on, O Lord, Nor reskue to my soule afford? |
A27830 | How long wilt Thou my soule expose To hir insulting foes? |
A27830 | How long wilt Thou thy help delay, Or not remove our woes away? |
A27830 | How long wilt thou displeased be, With those who daily worship thee? |
A27830 | How long( Lord) shall their wicked host, How long triumph and boast? |
A27830 | How shall I from Thy spirit fly? |
A27830 | How shall a young man clense his way? |
A27830 | IN God I put my trust: How then Do yee reproachfull men Say, To the mountaines flie my soule, Like to the chased fowle? |
A27830 | If Thy enquiry( Lord) should be severe, To mark all sins which have been acted here, Who may abide? |
A27830 | If the foundations perish so, What can the righteous do? |
A27830 | In mischeife they encourage each; Of snares make private speech; Which when in secret lay''d, They cry, What eyes shall them descry? |
A27830 | Iordan, what did thy current lack, That thou wast driven back? |
A27830 | Is His compassion lost and gone; His promises not thought upon? |
A27830 | MY God, My God upon me look; O wherefore hast Thou me forsook? |
A27830 | Mine eyes with expectation faile; When shall my hopes prevaile? |
A27830 | My bones all say; who''s like to Thee? |
A27830 | My foes thus speak: When shall he dy? |
A27830 | My heart cast downe and vext? |
A27830 | My heart cast downe, and vext? |
A27830 | Nor by His favour us protect? |
A27830 | Nor hear''st, when I through anguish roare? |
A27830 | O Congregation speake ye right? |
A27830 | O Lord of Hosts, great God of Might, Who dwell''st in endlesse light: How blessed shall that servant be, Who puts his trust in Thee? |
A27830 | O Lord of Hosts, who is so strong? |
A27830 | O Lord, how fast do they encrease, Who troubled have my Peace? |
A27830 | O Thou most Glorious, most Good, What profit is there in my blood? |
A27830 | O Thou my God who cast''dst us off, And mad''st our force their scoffe, Wilt not Thou with our armies go, To quell th''insulting foe? |
A27830 | O how great goodnesse hast thou wrought, For those thee fear, whose faith thee sought? |
A27830 | O send Thy Glorious beams of light, Thy truth to keep me right? |
A27830 | O sons of men judge ye upright? |
A27830 | O what is Man, or all his race, Thy favour should him grace? |
A27830 | O when wilt Thou to me come neare? |
A27830 | O who, that Israël may live, Salvation will from Sion give? |
A27830 | O why do''st Thou my soul reject, And hid''st from me Thy blest aspect? |
A27830 | Of whom then shall I be afraid? |
A27830 | Or Thy all present pow''r deny? |
A27830 | Or blood of goats would drink? |
A27830 | Or hinder us, when we appeare? |
A27830 | Or must destruction be our lot? |
A27830 | Or on Thy Hill reside? |
A27830 | Or shall not he, who form''d the eye, Your wickednes descry? |
A27830 | Or shall the dark Thy wonders see, The land where all forgotten be? |
A27830 | Or shall, like fire, thine anger burne? |
A27830 | Or shew how due His praises are? |
A27830 | Or those in earth who closed are, From their low Cells Thy truth declare? |
A27830 | Or tune His Notes in strangers Land, That can not understand? |
A27830 | Or what acknowledgment apply, For His benignity? |
A27830 | Or wherefore doth Thy kindled ire, Thy sheep and Pastures burne like fire? |
A27830 | Or wherefore, my afflicted heart, Thou so disturbed art? |
A27830 | Or who a Rock to us, but He? |
A27830 | Or who endure thy vengfull hand, And in thy judgment stand? |
A27830 | Or will His wrath, by sin renew''d, His tender mercies quite exclude? |
A27830 | Or will the dust, and silence raise A voyce to sound Thy praise? |
A27830 | Shall I still languish in disgrace, Whil''st Thou dost hide thy Face? |
A27830 | Shall he, who Nations overthrew, Not know to punish you? |
A27830 | Shall my short daies of life have end, Ere Thou Thy judgment send? |
A27830 | Shall not his search the sin impart, Who knowes the secrets of each heart? |
A27830 | Shall silent dust, or darknesse have A tongue to praise Thee in the grave? |
A27830 | Shall the devouring grave declare, How true thy promis''d mercies are? |
A27830 | Shall they escape? |
A27830 | So words like these their passion throwes; How should we thinke, God knowes; 12. Who lets the wicked live in health, And daily grow in wealth? |
A27830 | Still wilt Thou us at distance keep? |
A27830 | That I may breake hir fensed gate, And trample on hir state? |
A27830 | That I require Bulls flesh, why should''st thou think, Burnt in the fire? |
A27830 | That generations yet unborne Might know their duty to performe? |
A27830 | The Rock He did in streames divide; But can He bread, or flesh provide? |
A27830 | Think ye, that he who plants the eare Unable is to heare? |
A27830 | Thou Lord art fear''d; who may withstand The fury of Thy pow''rfull hand? |
A27830 | Thy Law how dearely do I rate All day to meditate? |
A27830 | Thy face in times of trouble hide? |
A27830 | Thy peoples joyes enlive? |
A27830 | Thy presence when appear? |
A27830 | Thy righteousnesse, O God, exceeds: Who equall can Thy mighty deeds? |
A27830 | Vaine people why engage? |
A27830 | WHy art Thou absent( Lord) so long, Regardlesse of Thy Servants wrong? |
A27830 | WHy boasting Tyrant dost thou threat, Thou canst do mischeife yet? |
A27830 | WHy do the furious Heathen rage? |
A27830 | What Miracle did then prevaile, That both your streams should faile? |
A27830 | What ay''ld thy waters, O thou Sea, That they so fled from thee? |
A27830 | What man is he, long life doth crave; Or happy dayes would have? |
A27830 | What mortall lives, who shall not dy? |
A27830 | What pow''r created parallells The Lord our God who thus excells, And far above the Heaven dwells? |
A27830 | What retribution shall I give To him by whom I live? |
A27830 | What though my leprous soul no Jordan can Recure? |
A27830 | What triumph canst Thou gaine by it, When I goe downe into the pit? |
A27830 | What vengeance doth to Thee belong, O false and perjur''d tongue? |
A27830 | When on your bed retir''d, and still, O meditate his will? |
A27830 | When shall I come Thy presence neare, And in Thy sight appeare? |
A27830 | Who can my Saviour be? |
A27830 | Who can withstand His cold? |
A27830 | Whom have I in the heav''ns, but Thee? |
A27830 | Whose might can with the Lord compare? |
A27830 | Whose word, like thine, endures so long? |
A27830 | Why doe ye vaunt In your un- hallow''d mouth, My Covenant? |
A27830 | Why doth his pride, and scorn surmount? |
A27830 | Why droop''st thou O my soul? |
A27830 | Why droop''st thou then, my Soule, so fast, Downe in thy sorrowes cast? |
A27830 | Why goe I thus in mourning drest, By enemies opprest? |
A27830 | Why ha''st Thou then broke downe hir fense? |
A27830 | Why help''st Thou not, when I implore? |
A27830 | Why hidest Thou Thy face from those, Who ly opprest, and griev''d by foes? |
A27830 | Why leap ye hills which so excell? |
A27830 | Why should in scorne the Heathen say, Where is the God whom we obay? |
A27830 | Why should my end affrightment feel, When sin, or death assault my heel? |
A27830 | Why should the heathen Thee defy, Whilst, Where is now their God? |
A27830 | Why vertue then should I retaine? |
A27830 | Why, O my soule, art thou perplext? |
A27830 | Why, O my soule, art thou perplext? |
A27830 | Will God for ever us reject? |
A27830 | Will they all knowledge thus defy, That work iniquity? |
A27830 | Wilt Thou displeas''d for ever be With all posterity? |
A27830 | Wilt Thou not us againe receive? |
A27830 | Wilt Thou support the wicked''s throne, Or joyne it with Thine owne? |
A27830 | Wilt not Thou with our armies go, To quell th''insulting foe? |
A27830 | Wilt thou me forget? |
A27830 | Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead, To praise Thee rais''d, and wakened? |
A27830 | Yea thus against their God they spake: Can He in desarts diet make? |
A27830 | Yee foolish people of the land, When will yee understand? |
A27830 | Yet little hills like Lambs? |
A27830 | Yet some, who Him not understood, Aske, who shall doe us good? |
A27830 | You Mountaines, that ye skip''d like rams? |
A27830 | canst only me protect: Why dost Thou me reject? |
A27830 | dost Thou so far abide? |
A27830 | how great Thy actions are? |
A27830 | most holy are; Who with Thy greatnes may compare? |
A27830 | nor floods of the lav''d ocean Make clean? |
A27830 | on whom shall I Whilst I stay here rely? |
A27830 | or what his race, Thy notice should him grace? |
A27830 | or, when they sifted are, Stand un- condemned at Thy Judgments bar? |
A27830 | still shall the foe blaspheme, And make Thy Name dishonours theme? |
A27830 | the faith Thy oath to David plighted hath? |
A27830 | they cry? |
A27830 | what is man? |
A27830 | what wonders hast thou made, In providence and wisedome layd? |
A27830 | who shall in thy dwelling bide? |
A27830 | why do''st Thou sleep? |
A27830 | wilt Thou ever from us turne? |
A67397 | ( For, what else is Inherent Righteousness?) |
A67397 | And I would Ask those Men who choose to speak otherwise; Whether they think that, beside Justification, there is such a thing as Sanctification? |
A67397 | But you will say, If we be Justified( as our Church tells us) by Faith onely; what need is there of Holyness, or a Godly Life? |
A67397 | Now, That we are Sanctified by Holyness, no man denies: But is it by Holyness therefore that we are Justified? |
A67397 | What shall we say then? |
A67397 | Why doth the living man Complain? |
A67397 | and, all the Graces of Gods Spirit? |
A61177 | A question indeed there was concerning the Ceremonial Law, Whether that were to be extinguish''d? |
A61177 | And is there not still the same reason, for the same entire union between both these things among us, as there was then among Gods own people? |
A61177 | And what is this way? |
A61177 | Are not the Glory of God, and the happiness of mankind the ends of Religion? |
A61177 | Are not true Reason, and the Word of God some of the chief Principles of true Righteousness? |
A61177 | But did not then, and will not always, the ruine of Righteousness suddenly follow the overthrow of Religion? |
A61177 | But what if these Virtues had come single, and alone, without any such blessed train of promises, or bright attendance of rewards? |
A61177 | Can there be a better guide to admonish us all how to prevent them, than our common experience? |
A61177 | Can there be then a more powerful argument to unite us all in preventing the like mischiefs, than our common danger? |
A61177 | Does he not establish them all by severer punishments, and more glorious rewards? |
A61177 | Does he not there free them all, one by one, from gross corruptions? |
A61177 | Does he not vindicate them all by most genuine interpretations? |
A61177 | Especially did he not exemplifie them all, by his own most innocent, just, unblamable, and merciful life? |
A61177 | Indeed can there be any more, than mortal life, and honor? |
A61177 | Is there still behind in my Text any more reward promised to the man, who follows after Righteousness, and Mercy? |
A61177 | Righteousness obliges us to yield to other men their own: Mercy inclines us to give them our own too: and what can be more? |
A61177 | Secondly, What is the way, the best way of following after them? |
A61177 | To this purpose, be pleased that I examine, First, What are the two things, which are here proposed to our zelous prosecution? |
A61177 | Was it not Righteousness that first made men begin to confide in one another? |
A61177 | Was not mankind a Society, as soon as it was a Church? |
A61177 | Were not all his Sermons, especially his great Sermon on the Mount, a perfect Comment on the ancient precepts of Righteousness, and Mercy? |
A61177 | What is that which immediately follows Glory to God on high? |
A61177 | What more worthy of Heaven, than to follow after them both? |
A61177 | What now may be fairly concluded from all this? |
A61177 | What then can be done better on Earth? |
A61177 | Which of these two God himself prefers, can we have a clearer instance, than in the persons and administrations of Moses, and our Blessed Saviour? |
A61177 | Whoever shall recollect the whole matter, and design of our Blessed Saviours Preaching, can he possibly think otherwise? |
A61177 | and what is it to follow after them, in a right manner, in a true Scripture sense? |
A61177 | but the Prayers, the hearts, the lives, if need be, of those who shall be preserv''d by your mercy, or forgiven by your pity? |
A61177 | but the justice, nay more, the thanks, the good will, and good offices of those, who shall be righted by your justice? |
A61177 | how ought we to have been affected towards them even then? |
A61177 | if we should think Virtue of it self to be less praise- worthy than they did, or less its own reward? |
A61177 | life, and honor immortal? |
A61177 | of all which Laws, did not God himself seem to give the advantage to this latter kind? |
A61177 | the one on its Purity, the other on its Unity? |
A61177 | to commit their private Safety, and Profit to each others Fidelity? |
A61177 | were his first Laws to the Jews, Ceremonial, and Ritual only, relating to his own Service alone? |
A61177 | were they not Judicial, and Moral also, respecting as well the peace and prosperity of Humane Society? |
A61177 | what hainous scandal, if we should come short of them, in our opinions, and practice of these things? |
A61177 | what reproach, if we should scarce equal them? |
A61177 | what this gate? |
A61177 | what? |
A61177 | what? |
A65225 | 3. of this chapter, Wherefore have we fasted, say they, and thou seest not? |
A65225 | And may he not passe for a Zerubbabel too? |
A65225 | But can we find out ne''r another? |
A65225 | But how, or by whom would he do this? |
A65225 | Dost thou glory that thou art invested with highest dignities, clothed with Purple and Ermin? |
A65225 | Here were the living stones broken, heart broken, the principal Pillars thrown down? |
A65225 | How shall we praise him as he deserves? |
A65225 | May I not take up the Apostles exclamation with a little alteration? |
A65225 | Nobilitate gloriaris? |
A65225 | Quanto honestius est principi si reparator ruinarum vocetur, quam vastator civitatum? |
A65225 | Then the King said unto me; For what d dost thou make request? |
A65225 | They laughed us to scorn, and despised us, saying, What is the thing that ye do? |
A65225 | They will come to slay thee, yet he still retains his wonted courage, saying, Should such a man as I flee? |
A65225 | Was it not now high time for us to say with the Psalmist? |
A65225 | What art thou, O great mountain? |
A65225 | What wild grapes? |
A65225 | When ye fasted and mourned in the fifth and seventh month, even those seventy years, did ye at all fast unto me, even unto me? |
A65225 | Why hast thou scattered us among the Heathen, so that they which hate us spoil our goods? |
A65225 | Why hast thou then broken down her hedges, so that all they that do passe by the way do pluck her? |
A65225 | Why should not my countenance be sad, when the City, the place of my fathers sepulcher, lieth waste, and the gates thereof are consumed with fire? |
A65225 | Wilt thou be famous in thy generations as Noah? |
A65225 | as Marlorat notes well upon the place; How much more honorable is it for a Prince to be call''d the repairer of ruines, than the destroyer of Cities? |
A65225 | wherefore have we afflicted our soul, and thou takest no knowledgt? |
A66382 | And having now at last met with such a One, who can tell but we may yet see that Proud Monarch at last shewn no longer to be Invincible? |
A66382 | And with what unheard of c Cruelty have they treated such as could not escape out of their Hands? |
A66382 | For were it not for such a Restraint as that we have now been speaking of, What would become of All the Peace, and Order, and Government of the World? |
A66382 | How many a Protestant Churches have within these few Years been Demolish''d by them? |
A66382 | If we consider Him before his coming to the Throne; From how many Dangers did it even then please God to save and deliver Him? |
A66382 | Nor did their Fury stop within the Bounds of their own Country: It reach''d even into Forreign Lands? |
A66382 | To what Dangers he has been exposed in an Element that of All Others has ever been the most Contrary to Him? |
A66382 | What b Multitudes of our Brethren have they Persecuted even into strange Countries? |
A66382 | What little Pretences have many times served them so to do? |
A66382 | What new Hazards he has again encountred in the Field? |
A66382 | Where can we find any Instances that may serve to parallel the Battles that have been fought, and the Attempts that have been made upon this Occasion? |
A70130 | How then may some say is their comming out from Egypt to be remembred as a great deliverance? |
A70130 | Is not the envy and malice of Papists against Protestants farre greater? |
A70130 | Now if dayes of judgement were so precisely to be remembred, how much more ought distinct dayes of blessing to be observed? |
A70130 | Thus Papists, though they were forced to let us Protestants have the freedome of our Religion; yet what plots have they contrived? |
A70130 | What matter of humiliation doth this give unto us? |
A70130 | doe they not fret and fume, rage and rave at the increase of Protestants? |
A70130 | what treasons have they attempted to deprive us of our liberty in Christ? |
A65311 | 1. Who is meant here by the righteous man? |
A65311 | 26. and surely it iswell with the righteous that hath God for his portion; is it not well with that man that is happy? |
A65311 | Do not the books agree, the book of thy Conscience, and the book of my Omniscience, and darest thou offer to plead Not Guilty? |
A65311 | For is it not ill with that man that hath a curse? |
A65311 | God is the righteous mans portion, and can God give a greater gift ● nto us than himselfe? |
A65311 | I, but you''l say sometimes it fares yet worse then all this: sometimes the righteous they dye and perish: they are carried away with a tempest; why? |
A65311 | If the Judge be taken away where will be any equity? |
A65311 | Lord, why dost not thou lift off my sin? |
A65311 | O these are in a sad condition; is it not sad at the hour of death and at the day of judgment, and after judgment with them? |
A65311 | Oh how manfully do many sin, they go to Hell strongly in their wickedness? |
A65311 | Oh who can endure thus to be ever upon the wrack? |
A65311 | The Husbandman he hath some Corn in his Barn, and he hath other Corn in the ground; why? |
A65311 | Thou wretch thou darest not say thou art not guilty; for have not I been an eye witness to all thy wickedness? |
A65311 | We would be glad to have things go well within our relations, and in our estates; why? |
A65311 | What are those fiery sins? |
A65311 | What canst thou say for thy Sabbath- breaking, for thy murthers and drunkenness, and perjury? |
A65311 | When thou art tempted to any wickedness think with your selves, Oh how can I bear the fierceness of Gods wrath for ever? |
A65311 | Whence is it that there is this gnashing of teeth? |
A65311 | Why so? |
A65311 | Yea, the curse of God entailed upon him; can that man ever thrive that lives under the curse of God? |
A65311 | You''l say to me, but how doth this appear that it shall be well with the righteous? |
A65311 | for all the persecuting of my Members? |
A65311 | for all thy revenge and malice? |
A65311 | how can I lye in the winepress of Gods wrath for ever? |
A65311 | if the Prophet be removed, where will be any Priests? |
A65311 | what dost thou say, Guilty, or not Guilty? |
A66555 | A cordial at the heart, Why art thou cast down, O my Soul? |
A66555 | And why art thou disquieted within me? |
A66555 | Are Hosts combin''d? |
A66555 | Are all these gone? |
A66555 | But what is all this to them, but the eying the Kings Palace, while they are in the Dungeon? |
A66555 | But what is this to me? |
A66555 | Do Dustie Mortals frown? |
A66555 | Doth nothing yet remain, A drouping Soul to chear, in saddest Pain? |
A66555 | If not my GOD? |
A66555 | If thus Clouds overcast a Soul that never offended, what may us, who offend dayly? |
A66555 | Jehovah Zebaoth can shelter his friends, and shatter his enemies, but what is that to thee, if not thy GOD? |
A66555 | Now is my Soul troubled, and what shall I say? |
A66555 | The GOD of Hosts hath Power, Does Wants oppress? |
A66555 | What are to them the promises of the Word, but a sealed Fountain? |
A66555 | What is Holiness, but a pure light to shew their spots? |
A66555 | What is Love to these that hate GOD and his wayes? |
A66555 | What is Mercy to a soul that slights it? |
A66555 | What shall harm you if ye be followers of that which is good? |
A66555 | Why art thou cast down O my Soul? |
A66555 | Yea, what is Heaven but a place where these that Love GOD, and are beloved of him, dwell? |
A21001 | 6. Who doubteth ô Lord that thou wilt not receiue mee to mercy? |
A21001 | 8 Now ô Lord, haue I not endured enough? |
A21001 | And at the last I my selfe haue likewise said, my God how comes this to passe? |
A21001 | And indeed, so long as I shall put my trust and assurance in his mercy; what occasion shall I euer haue to feare? |
A21001 | And then, am I not the worke of thine hands, and that which is more, the liuely image of thy diuinity? |
A21001 | And what is now become of those goodly pallaces? |
A21001 | Are these they who are called the children of the Almighty God? |
A21001 | At the last they waxe impatient, and beginne to murmur: What, doth not God who seeth all things perceiue this? |
A21001 | But if I had not sinned, vnto whome wouldest thou shew mercy? |
A21001 | But my God, wherefore doost thou not new make me? |
A21001 | But shall I therefore despaire? |
A21001 | But soft and faire my soule, why art thou so desolate? |
A21001 | But vntill when my God, shall thine anger last? |
A21001 | But vnto whom shall they leaue this store? |
A21001 | But what is the cause ô Lord that thou hast so highly exalted the throne of thy glorie? |
A21001 | But what shall be the price of my redemption? |
A21001 | But what shall bee the fruits of the iust man? |
A21001 | But what weapons? |
A21001 | But what? |
A21001 | But wherefore dost thou reiect mee ô my God? |
A21001 | But wherefore ô Lord dost thou delay to giue me the holy comfort which thou hast promised me? |
A21001 | But who are they who shall one day dwell with thee, as beholders of thy felicity and glorie? |
A21001 | But ô Lord who is it that in the middest of hell; in the bottomlese pit of death, shall sing thy praises, and sound forth thy name? |
A21001 | Can a good Father more louingly receiue his Childe which beggeth his pardon, then thou hast receiued mee, when I did cast my selfe at thy feete? |
A21001 | Doe yee thinke that his seru ● nts are as farre seperated from him, as your selues are from righteousnesse? |
A21001 | Doe you see this little member, how nice and tender it is? |
A21001 | Doe you thinke that because yee haue forgotten GOD, that GOD hath forgotten his seruants? |
A21001 | For if thou assist mee not, what combate can I wage against the enemies of my soule? |
A21001 | For, behold the wicked, how long hee hath laine in ambush to surprize the innocent? |
A21001 | Good God, what discomfort, what desolation? |
A21001 | HOw great is the goodnesse of our God, how certaine is his helpe to those which waite on him? |
A21001 | Hee hath now taken my life into his protection, and couereth me on all sides with the wings of his power, who is able to enforce him to forsake mee? |
A21001 | How can I shield my selfe from his darts? |
A21001 | How hast thou sinned, say they? |
A21001 | How shall I resist them? |
A21001 | I could not chuse but vexe and torment my selfe and said, alasse my God how comes this to passe? |
A21001 | I did thinke sometimes, oh my God, to hide my faults from thee,& haue said vnto my selfe; How can hee tell, or not, what I haue done? |
A21001 | I see wel that thou knowest, that thou hast drawne thine essence from him, and waitest by him to be glorified, what vsury doest thou offer him? |
A21001 | If thou shouldest keepe a register of our offences, and shouldest call vs to an account, who were able ô my God to endure the rigour of thy iustice? |
A21001 | If yee would then know what I said vnto my selfe, it was thus, what should I feare in the hardest time of my life? |
A21001 | In very deed when I enter into the consideration of these wonders, my heart fainted, and I fell into a swoune, what is this ô my God? |
A21001 | Is not his prouidence saide to bee as great in the gouernment of the world as his goodnesse was wonderfull in the creation thereof? |
A21001 | Mercy, mercy ô Lord, alas my God what dost thou? |
A21001 | O GOD what glory shall I giue vnto thy name, and how shall I beginne to declare thy praise? |
A21001 | O cruell beasts, how can yee thus change your natures, how can yee thus abiure all humanitie? |
A21001 | O how acceptable vnto thee is the sacrifize of an hart pearced thorow with repentance, an hart that is humbled in the knowledge of his sinne? |
A21001 | Oh how much more rather ô Lord doost thou pardon then punish? |
A21001 | Shall I sing of thy mercy in the redemption of those who offending thy lawe, had throwne themselues head- long into the bondage of eternall death? |
A21001 | Then they say among themselues, what is this fellow but a varlet? |
A21001 | This image is loden with filthinesse I confesse, but is it not much better to clense& burnish it then to destroy it and tread it vnder foote? |
A21001 | What can be hidden from him, before whom all things are present? |
A21001 | What day can now displease mee in this world? |
A21001 | What day of my life is there, but would deserue an age of torment? |
A21001 | What makes thee ô my soule so feruent in the praises of my God? |
A21001 | What man that beholds them will say that they should euer die? |
A21001 | What may we hope for, seeing that as strength decreaseth, our euills doe encrease? |
A21001 | What remotest corner is there in the world, but shall resound thy happy comming? |
A21001 | What shall I now feare any more? |
A21001 | What shall then mine enemies doe now, when they shall see such felicity heaped vpon me? |
A21001 | When the accuser shall bee the witnesse, and the witnesse shall bee the Iudge, what shall become of the offendor? |
A21001 | Where shall wee then expect rest? |
A21001 | Wherefore ô my GOD doest thou thus prodigally lode mee with blessings? |
A21001 | Wherfore, ô Lord doest thou support the iust with such affection? |
A21001 | Whether now should I make retreate? |
A21001 | With what wordes shall wee giue thee thankes? |
A21001 | a sort of wicked people who compasse mee about, seeking meanes to surprize mee? |
A21001 | and though my voyce were able, what eares are capable to receiue it? |
A21001 | behold what meanes hee hath vsed to take away his honour and life, see whether hee haue forgotten any thing or no? |
A21001 | can it be, thus, seeing thou hast pronounced threatnings against the wicked, and prepared punishment for them? |
A21001 | doost thou want will to doe good to thy creature? |
A21001 | dooth shee feele more griese then my selfe? |
A21001 | dost thou thinke that I present my selfe before thee to wrastle against thy power? |
A21001 | hath not my humility sufficiently chasticed my pride? |
A21001 | hath not my sinne procured the death of that child whom I loued better then my selfe? |
A21001 | how comes it to passe O Lord that thou art so ready to forgiue? |
A21001 | how foule and deformed art thou become? |
A21001 | how great and praise- worthy is the constancie of such people? |
A21001 | how great is this loue, when the Maister spareth not the life of his childe to redeeme his seruant? |
A21001 | how wouldst thou discharge thy selfe of the promises of grace, which thou hast so long declared by thy Prophets? |
A21001 | is it not ô Lord penitence which I religiously obserue? |
A21001 | is there nothing left for him? |
A21001 | is thine arme waxed short? |
A21001 | my God what hast thou made mee to see? |
A21001 | my God, wilt thou punish mee in thy wrath, and cause me to feele the violence of thy iust furie, which my sinnes haue stirred vp against me? |
A21001 | seeing that on what side so euer wee turne our selues, wee walke in the middest of this world, and this world is euery where full of miseries? |
A21001 | shal he giue those goods which are not his owne, or the Empiers which dye with him? |
A21001 | shal it be the goods of the earth the aboundance of gold and siluer? |
A21001 | shall I preach thy Iustice in the condemnation and punishment of the pride of the Angels, and disobedience of men? |
A21001 | shall I publish thy goodnesse in the creation of so many wonderfull workes which are vnderneath the sun? |
A21001 | shall it bee in my selfe? |
A21001 | shall they bee the wealth which hee hath gathered together, the castles which he hath builded? |
A21001 | that man but a foole? |
A21001 | thou art Almighty, all good, wherefore then dooest thou tarry? |
A21001 | thou whose meekenesse and benignity, is not only vnspeakable but incomprehensible? |
A21001 | thy wisedome in thy preseruation of them? |
A21001 | to what part of thy prayses may the humble sound of my voyce attaine? |
A21001 | vnto what height hast thou raised mee, to giue mee so terrible a downefall? |
A21001 | vpon what day of my life shall I ceasse from bewailing those sinnes which kept me forth of his fauor? |
A21001 | were it not better for mee, by ending my life, to giue an end to my miseries? |
A21001 | what can become of him whom thou causest to endure the iust punishment for his sinnes? |
A21001 | what can bee shewed vnto him which is iustice it selfe, who hath established lawes, and vnto whom the interpretation of them doth belong? |
A21001 | what excuse can serue to iustifie him? |
A21001 | what matter could I finde in my selfe, that might beget such a selfe- conceit in mee? |
A21001 | what precious thing is there in heauen, but shall bee opened vnto them? |
A21001 | what share haue they in this world, or in the next? |
A21001 | what sight hast thou presented to mine eyes? |
A21001 | what strength haue I to defend my selfe, seeing that my body falleth in peeces? |
A21001 | when thou shalt come to sit vpon the eternall throne of thy Iustice, if wee were all iust, who would stand in feare of thee? |
A21001 | wher is the fauor which he promised to himselfe from him? |
A21001 | where doth hee now sleepe? |
A21001 | wherefore haue I made a publicke profession of repentance, but to condemne my selfe? |
A21001 | wherefore should I study to preserue this life, which wrestleth with so many discontents, and is tormented with so many afflictions? |
A21001 | wherein did I hope but in thy goodnesse? |
A21001 | whereof should I bee afraide, though death did lay his hand vppon mee and tooke me out of this world? |
A21001 | who shall ascend thy toppe? |
A21001 | who shall hinder and stay me from entring into the howse of the Lord, for to liue in his seruice? |
A21001 | who shall rest in the very bosome of so goodly and so delectable a mansion? |
A21001 | why doest thou promise mee such aboundance of them, seeing there is in mee nothing but sinne and infirmitie? |
A21001 | wil the shaddow of his bones bite vs? |
A21001 | wil they still be in our sight? |
A21001 | wilt thou make proofe of thy strength on my weakenesse? |
A21001 | ô Lord I am almost in despaire, why dost thou forsake mee? |
A21001 | ô Lord, who is able to saue himselfe in thy presence? |
A67824 | And what then must be the Character of those that always want Discretion in the main? |
A67824 | But amidst all this, Where( says he) shall wisdom be found? |
A67824 | But especially, how amazing must the fear of Death be to him that fears not God? |
A67824 | But, in the mean time, what need of all this Sail to run against a Rock? |
A67824 | How galling must the Fears about the things of this Life needs be to one who carries no eye to the Blessings of a future? |
A67824 | How wonderfully will a man sometimes be affected at the hearing of a sudden noise in the Night? |
A67824 | If it be reasonable to fear Disappointments, how much more to fear Him, whose Providence disposes the issue of all we project? |
A67824 | If it be reasonable to fear Disgrace, how much more to fear Him, whose estimation imports more towards it than that of all the World beside? |
A67824 | In a word, if it be reasonable to fear them that can kill the body, how much more him, who after he hath killed, can cast into hell? |
A67824 | What needs the Pomp of all these excellent Qualities to be undone, when a Man may be undone less reproachfully without them? |
A67824 | and where is the place of understanding? |
A67824 | this night shall thy soul be required of thee; and then whose shall those things be that thou hast provided? |
A62609 | And how little reason is there to glory in that, which is so frequently foil''d by an unequal strength? |
A62609 | And now we may ask the Question which Job does, Where shall wisdom be found, and where is the place of understanding? |
A62609 | And now what may God justly expect from us, as a meet return for his Goodness to us? |
A62609 | And why should any man be proud of his danger, of that which one time or other may be the certain and only cause of his ruin? |
A62609 | God forbid? |
A62609 | How art thou cut down to the ground that didst weaken the Nations? |
A62609 | How art thou fallen from Heaven, O Lucifer, Son of the morning? |
A62609 | How hard a matter is it to be truly wise? |
A62609 | I proceed to consider, What it is that is matter of true glory? |
A62609 | May we not appeal to God in this, as Abraham did in another Case? |
A62609 | Now can any man believe this, that hath any tolerable notion either of the Goodness or Justice of God? |
A62609 | Or if by might we understand military force and power, how little likewise is that to be gloried in? |
A62609 | Secondly, Because when knowledg and wisdom are with much difficulty in any competent measure attained, how easily are they lost? |
A62609 | Secondly, When knowledg and wisdom are with great difficulty in any competent measure attain''d, how easily are they lost? |
A62609 | That be far from thee, to do after this manner: Shall not the Judge of all the Earth do right? |
A62609 | Unless it be first naturally known that God is a God of truth, what ground is there for the belief of his Word? |
A62609 | What? |
A62609 | Wilt thou destroy the righteous with the wicked? |
A62609 | art thou also become like unto us? |
A62609 | hast thou seen the treasures of the Haile? |
A62609 | the exactour of gold ceased? |
A27862 | A Psalm of David, When the Ziphims came to Saul, and said,"Do''s not David hide himself with us? |
A27862 | ARE you, as by your place you ought to be, True Judges of the Poor mans wrong? |
A27862 | All this Thou know''st, For what is hid from Thee, Who dost my secret Sins and Follies see? |
A27862 | Already we have tarried long enough, Now let our speed declare Our love; Why should we thus from Sion stay, And only be unhappy by our Own delay? |
A27862 | And all their little Kings engage? |
A27862 | And have at last their glory to his honour laid? |
A27862 | And though a while He turn aside, Shall not one look revive us, and Our Race? |
A27862 | Are they all thus, O God, all gone aside, As if from Thee they could their follies hide? |
A27862 | Are they all thus, O God, all gone aside, As if from Thee they could their follies hide? |
A27862 | Ask you who is this Glorious King? |
A27862 | Ask you who is this Glorious King? |
A27862 | BUT how shall Youth this Wisdom, Lord, attain, Unbridled Youth to choose His Way? |
A27862 | Be little lower than Blest Angels made? |
A27862 | But hold; why do I thus complain, Like one whom God do''s never hear? |
A27862 | But to the Wicked the Almighty sayes,"What hast thou, wretch, to do with my just Wayes?" |
A27862 | But what reward, false tongue, dost Thou desire, Or who to give''t Thee dares come nigh? |
A27862 | But whence, said I, shall come my present aid,"Or who against my foes my Title will defend? |
A27862 | But where''s my God, that I to him may sing? |
A27862 | But who their Verse can to His Glory raise, Or as His Acts deserve, shew forth His Praise? |
A27862 | But who to Edom will direct my Course, And entrance for me into Bozra force? |
A27862 | But who to Edom will direct my course, And entrance for Me into Bozra force? |
A27862 | But who, think''st thou, these actions will admire, Since thou''rt inspir''d by an infernal fire? |
A27862 | But why hast Thou her hedge broke down? |
A27862 | By looking through a false, and flattering glass, Acquit the Wicked, and condemn the Just? |
A27862 | Can He flesh provide?" |
A27862 | Destroi''d his Pallace, and his ramparts broke, And on his neck and Sions lai''d the yoak? |
A27862 | Deus quis similis erit tibi? |
A27862 | Do not I hate them, Lord, those who hate Thee, And are not they my Enemies, Who in their rage against Thee rise? |
A27862 | Domine quid multiplicati,& c. I. LOrd, how are they increast who trouble me? |
A27862 | Eternal Minde, should we each Act of Thine Recount, and mention every thing, At which of Thy Great works should we begin? |
A27862 | Expound my Statutes, or declare my Truth?" |
A27862 | For all the Springs of Mercy are in Thee; And can I want, while I upon Thee rest, Whose Word alone commands deliv''rance to th''Opprest? |
A27862 | For can God, said I, or the Holy One,"Be joyn''d with them, who set up mischief by a Law?" |
A27862 | For ever shall Thy Wrath devour like fire, And in it''s flames Thy ancient Love expire? |
A27862 | For if Thou once shouldst be severe, What heart quakes not, when God begins, To judge, and sets up His Tribunal there? |
A27862 | For if that Greatness awe us here, What would it do, came not so vast a space between? |
A27862 | God has enough to Sion done, Hold, and prepare Thee Babylon for Thy end, What mayst Thou fear, if thus He serves His Own? |
A27862 | HOw long, O God, shall I forgottenly, As one cast from Thy memory? |
A27862 | HOw long, my God, wilt Thou thus hide Thy face, And thus withdraw the presence of Thy grace? |
A27862 | He sees how partially you sentence pass; And will you alwayes wrong your trust? |
A27862 | He sees the Righteous and the Wicked too; Without His help, what can the Righteous do? |
A27862 | His Mercies have been ever sure, His Truth for ever shall endure, What can we less, when He so much do''s give? |
A27862 | Hold Babylon — where will thy rage extend? |
A27862 | How could it else be that they durst appear, Whose guilt had added horror to their fear? |
A27862 | How could that be else, which mine eyes have seen? |
A27862 | How did they tempt Him in the Wilderness? |
A27862 | How do the wicked tremble, when the Just Secure in all his Fears is made? |
A27862 | How full of Majesty, and Fear, When from them the Besiegers steal away? |
A27862 | How little did they mind His Mighty Hand, Then conquering, when He only bid them stand? |
A27862 | How long shall I forgotten be, As if indeed it were in vain Of all my mis''ries to complain, And I might sooner mount the rocks, than Thee? |
A27862 | How long then will you plots devise, Against a Man, who is upright? |
A27862 | How long wilt Thou be angry thus Both with Our Prayers, Great God, and us? |
A27862 | How long, my God, shall He unpunisht go, And then most prosper, when he most do''s Thee offend? |
A27862 | How many, Lord, against me rise, For Thy sake are my Enemies, Yet would perswade me I am so to Thee? |
A27862 | I look, and sigh, and wait, O, come away, Why should my En''my triumph, when Thou dost but stay? |
A27862 | I''th''midst of fears is not afraid, But has his heart as fixed as his Trust? |
A27862 | I, who no less am Thy great care,"Since equally round both encamp''d Thy Angels are? |
A27862 | If I were hungry, why should I tell Thee,"When the Earth''s fulness all belongs to Me?" |
A27862 | Let them be vagabonds, and begg their bread, And have have no certain place to hide, or rest their head? |
A27862 | Lord, what is Man, that Thou should''st mindfull be Of one, who do''s so seldom think of Thee? |
A27862 | MY God, who shall Thy Holy Mount ascend, And in Thy House his life and praises spend? |
A27862 | MY God, why do''s my God thus ever stay, And to my rescue make no hast? |
A27862 | Made voi''d Thy Cov''nant, and to th''Earth flung down( Snatcht from His Royal Head) the Sacred Crown? |
A27862 | Many and fearfull things Thy hand has done; And whose can with Thy works compare? |
A27862 | My God, what are my years to Thee, said I?" |
A27862 | Nor did they closely think, but speak their Sins, And with vile Mouth the Murmurer thus begins;"Can He give Bread too? |
A27862 | Nothing but Manna? |
A27862 | Or can the World''s just Ruler partial be, Or God Himself know nothing, who at first taught thee? |
A27862 | Or if I eat, must Thou needs with''t acquainted be?" |
A27862 | Or rapine to its party conquer''d virtue draw,"Against the Just together to conspire,"And doom the Innocent, and guilty to one fire? |
A27862 | Or rather do you not his suit prolong, And then bind o''re, when you should set him free? |
A27862 | Or what Almighty Numbers can confine The Love, and Providence Divine? |
A27862 | Or what am I Thou on me set''st so great a price, But little in my Own, and less in others eyes? |
A27862 | Or what made frighted Jordans Spring Swoone and keep all his waters in, Like spirits scarce able to secure the Heart? |
A27862 | Or what my age compar''d with Thine,"If e''re my Noon is reach''t I dye?" |
A27862 | Or who among the mighty Sons of Earth, Is like to Thee, who gav''st their Mother Birth? |
A27862 | Or wilt Thou alwayes thus Thy hand recall, That Hand where all Our succours lie, And only lift it from our sight on high? |
A27862 | Prevent my evil day with Cares, To leave a Curse, and sorrow to my Heirs? |
A27862 | Say to the Lord,"How mighty is Thy Power, Which even Thy Enemies must unforc''t confess? |
A27862 | Shall Justice, and Oppression share the Throne?" |
A27862 | Shall his vile mouth for ever thus defame, Thy Sacred, and Unutterable Name? |
A27862 | Shall in the Grave Thy Praise improve,"Sung there, where silence has for ever been?" |
A27862 | Shall it be ever thus, and will Thine eyes, Those Mis''ries, which they see us bear, despise? |
A27862 | Shall the Dead rise, and praise Thee, or Thy love,"Be in the Land of Darkness seen?" |
A27862 | Shall then His flock no longer be His Care, But more His rage, than once His love they were? |
A27862 | Shall they escape unpunish''t in their wayes, And in Prosperity spend all their dayes? |
A27862 | Since God''s my trust, whom need I fear? |
A27862 | Sion, more glorious than the Hills of Bey, How excellent dost Thou appear? |
A27862 | Speaking hard things of what he do''s not know, And make to patient Heav''n his blasphemies ascend? |
A27862 | That Thou hast cast off, and abhor''d Thy King, As if he never had anointed been? |
A27862 | The Earth Thou hear''st and why not me? |
A27862 | The greater''s done, and wilt not do the less? |
A27862 | Then to Thee, Lord, again I cry''d,"What profit is there in my blood,"If in the pit I must abide,"Can Thy praise there be understood?" |
A27862 | Think''st Thou that such gross meats as these,"Bulls blood, or flesh my taste do please,"And are fit things my anger to appease?" |
A27862 | This Thou hast said, O God, and thus hast sworn, How comes it then His Kingdome is all torn? |
A27862 | This poor man to Thee cry''d,"And Thou heard''st him, why then am I deny''d?" |
A27862 | Thou hast exalted it, and why not I? |
A27862 | Thou know''st my grief, how tears have been my food, When my insulting Foes have cry''d,"Now where''s your God? |
A27862 | To take my Word into thy mouth?" |
A27862 | Ut quid repulisti in finem,& c. I. Shall We for ever then be cast off thus, And will Our God no more remember Us? |
A27862 | V. But who shall Sion''s Mount ascend, Be counted worthy there his life to spend, And undisturb''d may at thy Altar, Lord, attend? |
A27862 | V. How long, Dear God, shall Our Proud Enemy Not us alone, but Thy Great Power defy? |
A27862 | V. See how they trembling stand, Receive the charge, and finish the Command, And to the great Tribunall bring the shakled band? |
A27862 | V. Than Mesech can a place more savage be, Where all to Peace sworn Enemies are, And for Her sake are so to me? |
A27862 | V. Then whither shall I from Thy Presence fly? |
A27862 | WHat makes this stir? |
A27862 | What Flesh can in His sight be just, Or to His breath expose its dust? |
A27862 | What a beast was I then, Lord to repine? |
A27862 | What ail''d the Sea, that it should backward start? |
A27862 | What more accepted Flame to Heaven can rise,"Than an whole Synagogue for Sacrifice?" |
A27862 | What profit''s it to hoard up endless store Of wealth for others, and my self be Poor? |
A27862 | What shall I bring and yield the Lord, For all His Favours shown to me? |
A27862 | What signs in Pharaohs coast He for them wrought, And gave deliverance e''re He scarce was sought? |
A27862 | When against me they throw their poyson''d darts, And in their rage their bows do bend, Or let them be too weak the shafts to send? |
A27862 | When on the streams He layes His Chain, And Captive Floods do''s bind, What Power can set them free again, Till He send out His Wind? |
A27862 | When shall Thy wrath and jealousie expire, Quench''d by that blood, which now but feeds the fire? |
A27862 | Where are they? |
A27862 | Where dark oblivion uncontroll''d do''s reign,"And dismal Horror riots o''re the empty Plain? |
A27862 | Who''s Lord o''re us, with dev''lish mouth they say,"Or who is He we should obey?" |
A27862 | Why did the mountains fly? |
A27862 | Why do the People rage? |
A27862 | Why dost Thou thus Thy face in trouble hide? |
A27862 | Why ran the Hills? |
A27862 | Why should my Enemy encrease his pride, With Thee, and conquest on his side? |
A27862 | Will God be alwayes angry, ever chide With them, who daily seek His Face? |
A27862 | Wilt Thou from me Thy face for ever hide? |
A27862 | Wilt Thou no period to my griefs allow, But fresh afflictions on me throw, Which I as little as Thy wrath can bear? |
A27862 | Would you have life, and happy dayes? |
A27862 | Yet who, say they, What God do''s hear? |
A27862 | how long will you, in vain, God, and my Glory thus despise? |
A65301 | Are we carried every day up to Heaven in a fiery Chariot of Love? |
A65301 | Before I come to the Application, here''s a Question arises, — Why does God make Light to arise to his People, in an hour of Darkness? |
A65301 | Does God make Light, and Joy, and Peace, to arise to the Righteous? |
A65301 | Having done this, if you ask me yet further, what we must do in this time of Darkness, till God makes Light spring up to us? |
A65301 | Is it thus with us? |
A65301 | Jonah called the Whales belly, the belly of Hell; Why so? |
A65301 | Let''s bring our Graces to the Touch- Stone: What Faith have we? |
A65301 | Our Heart and Flesh cry out for the Living God? |
A65301 | Pray observe: Mercy, what ca n''t it do? |
A65301 | The fourth Inference is this: Does God cause Light to spring up to the Upright in all their Darknes? |
A65301 | There ariseth Light in[ Darkness] What''s meant here by Darkness? |
A65301 | What Love to God have we? |
A65301 | What were the World without Light, but a Dark Prison? |
A65301 | What''s meant by Light here? |
A65301 | What''s the mixed Cup? |
A65301 | What''s this Red Wine in the Cup? |
A65301 | While God so delights in this Darling Attribute of Mercy, why should we despair? |
A65301 | Who are here meant by the Upright? |
A65301 | Who would ever have thought that God should have made a Caus ● way for his People to have marched through on, in the midst of the Sea? |
A65301 | Why may not Mercy give the casting Voice for this Nation? |
A65301 | Why may we not hope that the Morning- Star of Deliverance and Mercy may yet appear unto this Island? |
A65301 | Why should we despair? |
A65301 | Why then should we despond, or throw away our Anchor? |
A65301 | Why( I say) should we despond, when''t is God''s great Project and Design, to lighten his Peoples Darkness? |
A65301 | Why, what did Moses do? |
A65301 | are we hid by Faith in the bleeding Wounds of Christ? |
A65301 | does Conscience witness that we not only serve him, but love him? |
A65301 | that God should have made Heaven a Grainary, to drop down Manna for his People to feed on? |
A65301 | till Mercy comes riding to England in the Chariot of Salvation? |
A65301 | who would not serve this God? |
A65301 | — What was this Candle? |
A27786 | Among the sons of mighty ones, who with him equall are? |
A27786 | And dost not help me when my words a loud complaint do make? |
A27786 | And from thy presence to remove, Lord, whither should I flye? |
A27786 | And in their summe how passing great and numberlesse they be? |
A27786 | And shall his spitefull blasphemy against thee ever last? |
A27786 | And shall thine anger evermore like fire consume and waste? |
A27786 | And shall thy kindled jealousie like fire still burne and waste? |
A27786 | And shall thy wrath it selfe extend upon all ages thus? |
A27786 | And who can shew such faithfulnesse, as doth encompasse thee? |
A27786 | And why do I thus mourning go, oppressed with my foe? |
A27786 | And why thy favour and thy face dost thou thus hide from me? |
A27786 | And why with vexing thoughts art thou disquieted in me? |
A27786 | And ye that foolish are and rude, at length this wisdome learne? |
A27786 | And, Lord, how long yet shall we see say, the wicked to rejoyce? |
A27786 | Art thou disquieted in me? |
A27786 | Contend not I against them all, against thee that arise? |
A27786 | For how often doe wee see a sick soule to begin a Psalme, even in the belly of Hell, and yet end it in Heaven? |
A27786 | For, shall the dust thee glorifie? |
A27786 | HOw long, Lord, shall I ever thus of thee forgotten be? |
A27786 | His tender mercie ● … in his wrath, wholly shut up hath he? |
A27786 | How long thy favour and thy face wilt thou thus hide from me? |
A27786 | How long triumph and boast shall they that work iniquity? |
A27786 | How long yet shall mine enemy thus triumph over me? |
A27786 | How wonderfull O Lord, say ye, in 〈 ◊ 〉 thy works thou art? |
A27786 | I Trust in God, then to my soule how dare ye thus to say, Unto your mountain as a bird escape, and flie away? |
A27786 | I le knowledge into man doth breathe, and shall himselfe not know? |
A27786 | In the land of forgetfulnesse who shall thy justice know? |
A27786 | Lord, when will thou amend this geare? |
A27786 | MY God, my God, what is the cause that thou dost me forsake? |
A27786 | MY shepheard is the living Lord, and he that doth eo feed; How can I then lack any thing whereof I stand in need? |
A27786 | O Mighty man, in wickednesse why dost thou b ● … ast with pride? |
A27786 | OLord, within thy Tabernacle, who shall inhabit still? |
A27786 | Or else so much desire to seed on goats out of thy fold? |
A27786 | Or from the power of the grave, what man his soule can free? |
A27786 | Or in the Highest can there be knowledge of things below? |
A27786 | Or passe into thy holy place, there to continue still? |
A27786 | Or shall the dead arise, and here thy glorious praises spread? |
A27786 | Or shall thy loving graciousnesse be mention''d in the grave? |

A27786 | verse 20 Shall the throne of iniquitie have fellowship with thee? |

A27786 | verse 23 But, Lord, awake, why sleepest thou? |
A27786 | verse 25 Why dost thou hide thy face, and us in griefes and wrongs dost leave? |
A27786 | verse 3 How long shall those that wicked be, in pride lift up their voice? |
A27786 | verse 3 If the foundations be destroi''d, and might, right overturne; Herein what can the righteous doe, but humbly pray and mourne? |

A27786 | verse 5 O why art thou cast down, my soul? |

A27786 | verse 7 Will God, said I, still hide his face, and cast me off for ever? |
A27786 | verse 8 And, Lord, for what now do I wait, what here can profit me? |

A27786 | verse 8 But who of glory is the King? |
A27786 | verse 8 For ever is his mercy gone, which I have seen before? |
A27786 | verse 8 Lord God of hosts, a mighty Lord, like thee what one can be? |
A27786 | verse 8 O Lord our God, who mighty works thus with thy hand didst frame, How excellent in all the earth is thy most glorious Name? |

A27786 | what ● … hould discourage thee? |
A27786 | why dost thou stay and pause? |
A62605 | 6. says God there, I hearkened and I heard, but they spake not aright; no man repented him of his wickedness, saying, What have I done? |
A62605 | And again, O Jerusalem, wilt thou not be made clean? |
A62605 | And at last, when nothing would do, with what difficulty and reluctancy does God deliver them up into the hands of their Enemies? |
A62605 | And can any of us be so obstinate and hard- hearted, as not presently to resolve to repent and return, and to meet the compassions of such a Father? |
A62605 | And can it be now wise to revive them, and to take them up again? |
A62605 | And how can we chuse but dread lest their Fate should overtake us, the Example of whose Faults and Follies we do in so many things so nearly resemble? |
A62605 | And how glad is he when any good man will step in and interpose to stay his hand? |
A62605 | And what an infatuation was this? |
A62605 | For who is fit to interpose in such hot and fierce differences? |
A62605 | How great was it to the old World, when the long suffering of God waited in the days of Noah, for the space of an hundred and twenty years? |
A62605 | How loth is God that things should come to this? |
A62605 | How shall I deliver thee Judah? |
A62605 | How shall I give thee up Ephraim? |
A62605 | How shall I make thee as Admah? |
A62605 | I proceed to the Second Observation from the Text, namely, What is the only proper and effectual means to prevent the ruine of a sinful People? |
A62605 | O Ephraim, what shall I do unto thee? |
A62605 | O Jerusalem, wash thine heart from wickedness, that thou mayest be saved; how long shall vaine thoughts lodge within thee? |
A62605 | O Judah, what shall I do unto thee? |
A62605 | So long I remember; and in all that space how very few years pass''d over us without some great Calamity and dismal Event? |
A62605 | What a conflict is here? |
A62605 | What can be imagin''d more slow, and mild, and merciful, than the proceedings of the Divine justice against a sinful People? |
A62605 | Will nothing but sad and bitter experience be an admonition to us? |
A62605 | Will nothing but the last necessity and extremity of things bring us to our selves and teach us wisdom? |
A62605 | how shall I set thee as Zeboim? |
A62605 | that is, how long wilt thou delude thy self with vaine hopes of escaping the judgments of God by any other way than by repentance? |
A62605 | what tenderness and yerning of his bowels towards them? |
A62605 | when shall it once be? |
A62605 | when the same danger in some degree, and from the same implacable Enemies, still hovers over us? |
A62605 | who can do it without danger, or with any hopes of success? |

A70569 | Behold, the Lord shall come, and who shall abide the day of his comming? |
A70569 | But how will the Prophecy be made good, if the Seventieth Week be not compleat? |
A70569 | But how( will you say) will an Army of Abominations be made an Army of Gentiles? |
A70569 | But who is this Desolater, or Maker of Desolations, who should command over this Wing of Abominations, and bring these Gentiles against the Holy City? |
A70569 | Had S. Luke any reference to this, when he speaks of Jerusalem compassed with an army? |
A70569 | If they be Substantives in statu constructo, were they not, or may they not be so in absoluto? |
A70569 | Months raign of Smerdis? |
A70569 | what other Army could such a one lead, but Gentiles? |
A67234 | And how then do they approve themselves to be his Servants, that all along go contrary to these his just and equal Commands? |
A67234 | And now what shall we render unto the Lord for all the benefits he hath done unto us? |
A67234 | But then what will become of us in the other World, if our Life be not spent in the Service of God in this? |
A67234 | He therefore having such and so great Right, and so many, and so strong Titles to our Service, how can we with- hold it from him? |
A67234 | How can they hope to enter into their Master''s Joy? |
A67234 | How do they think, without all Truth and Reason? |
A67234 | If we are obliged to give unto Caesar the things that are Caesar''s, why should we not give unto God what doth so justly belong unto him? |
A67234 | If we thus requite the Lord, may we not be truly called in the Language of Moses, Foolish people and unwise? |
A67234 | Shall we repay all his Goodness with disrespect to him, or disregard of him? |
A67234 | With what readiness do Men usually obey the Commands of their Masters, according to the Flesh, even sometimes in wicked and unrighteous Actions? |
A67234 | how do they speak? |
A67234 | or with those wicked Men in Job, What is the Almighty, that we should serve him, and what profit shall we have if we pray unto him? |
A67234 | shall we slight his Commands, and be disobedient unto his Will, or turn our backs upon him, and refuse to do him Service? |
A61477 | Are not these the Seal, to which these Nations, as Wax are turned, and changed? |

A61477 | Did this satissie Jacob? |
A61477 | God challengeth al the Nations: Let them bring forth their witnesses, who among them can shew us former things? |

A61477 | Hath not the Lord many Witnesses in these Nations, yea, here present? |
A61477 | Hath this been your temper, when the wisdom of State, or the season hath made it seem necessary to you to handle any one of Christs Flock roughly? |
A61477 | How should our mouths be filled with laughter, and praises for this New thing, which God doth, this New day, which God bringeth forth from Heaven? |
A61477 | How should we love Jesus Christ for the Savor of his new, and good Oyntments; in which he powrs forth himself into the midst of us? |
A61477 | How should we rellish this feast of new delicacys, which the Lord sets forth for us? |
A61477 | How then is that day of the Lord risen upon us, which is to try al things? |
A61477 | Know ye not, that ye are the Temple of God? |
A61477 | Now it shal spring forth, shal ye not see it? |

A61477 | When the two disciples wer going to Emaus,& Jesus Christ in the midst of them; they said; did not our hearts burn within us, while he talked with us? |

A61477 | You then in this Nation whose Souls love the Lord Jesus, is your Desire come? |
A61477 | hath it been hard, and grievous to you to act this strange part, and to hide your affections? |
A61477 | have you inwardly, and privately melted into tears while you have openly thundered out hard speeches? |
A61477 | have your Bowels been turned within you? |
A61477 | how can we, or you tel that your impressions are not delusions? |
A61477 | or shal our spirits be held from rejoycing, and dancing in this Light, while its season lasteth? |

A61494 | What think ye will be replied to these, and the like kind of men, but ye know not of what spirit ye are? |
A61494 | Where was their Church before Hezekiah? |
A61494 | Your Fathers worshipp''d in these High Mountains; but ye now say, Jerusalem''s the place; where was the Church before Hezekiah? |
A61494 | and may that of the Gospel boast of a more constant Beauty? |
A61494 | and so not in state of Salvation, unless by express Repentance he turn back to God, for this very Apostacy? |
A61494 | or if you will, Fire from Hell? |
A61494 | than Solomon the wise, or Asa the religious? |
A81897 | For who is able to withstand his will, or hinder that he wil have forward? |
A81897 | S. Paul saith, Be not yoked with infidels: what hath righteousnesse to do with unrighteousnesse, light with darknesse, or Christ with Belial? |
A81897 | What infinite numbers of Martyrs have stood stoutly and given their lives in the same quarrel? |
A81897 | What more blessed then is he that hindreth? |
A81897 | When Elias exhorted Achab and the people to return unto the Lord, Achab saith unto him, Art thou he that troubleth Israel? |
A81897 | Worldly masters will not cast a way their faithfull servants, but maintaine them as they may, and thinkest thou that God will forsake his servants? |
A81897 | do ye fall away from the King? |
A65466 | Do we think it any ways infamous to detect an High- way- man, or to seize him and bring him to Iustice? |
A65466 | How can such Persons pray every day Lead us not into Temptation, when they themselves wilfully rush into the very mouth of it? |
A65466 | Is it number that we want to encourage us? |
A65466 | Is this our kindness to our Friend, or should we ever believe any Person to be ours who so basely deserted us? |
A65466 | Now when Judgment thus eminently returns unto Righteousness, who is there that is upright in Heart but will gladly follow it? |
A65466 | Shall we then stand all the day idle, when the Lord of the Vineyard calls us out to this painful but glorious Work? |
A65466 | That Good Men ought to oppose Vice and Wickedness? |
A65466 | Thisis fairly imply''d in the Words of the Question — Who will rise up with me? |
A65466 | What need of such a careful and exact Enquiry, if the Answer had been obvious and easie? |
A65466 | What should we think our selves of a Neighbour who should know the Person that had rob''d us, and yet would not discover him? |
A65466 | What stronger Arguments to persuade us to fix our selves as Iron Pillars and Brazen Walls against the Workers of Iniquity? |
A65466 | What would the Law say to one who should stifle or conceal a Felony or a Murder, and would it not look upon him as an Accomplice in the Fact? |
A65466 | Who has Courage, and Constancy, and Bravery equal to so glorious, an Underatking? |
A65466 | Who will rise up with me against the Wicked, and who will take my part against the Evil- doers? |
A65466 | Who will stand up for me? |
A65466 | Whom are we afraid of, that we forget the Lord our Maker? |
A65466 | Why should our poor Brother perish for whom Christ dyed? |
A65466 | Would you suffer your dearest Friend to dye for want of Cupping or Bleeding him when you saw him labouring under the extremest Agonies? |
A65466 | and shall we be only unconcerned for the Glory of God, and our own and our Neighbours spiritual Welfare? |
A65466 | v. 16. Who will rise up for me against the Evil- doers, or who will stand up for me against the Workers of Iniquity? |
A61603 | And can men then say the command is impossible when he hath promised an assistance sutable to the nature of the duty& the infirmities of men? |
A61603 | And what then is wanting, but only setting our selves to the serious obedience of them, to make his commands not only not impossible, but easie to us? |
A61603 | And wherewithall then wilt thou be able to dispute with God? |
A61603 | Are the flames of another world such painted fires, that they deserve only to be laughed at, and not seriously considered by us? |
A61603 | But is the Chair of Scorners at last proved the only chair of Infallibility? |
A61603 | But what is it which the person who despises Religion, and laughs at every thing that is serious, proposes to himself as the reason of what he does? |
A61603 | But who art thou O man, that thus findest fault with thy Maker? |
A61603 | Did ever any yet, though never so wicked and profane themselvs, seriously commend another person for his rudeness and debaucheries? |
A61603 | Do they think that we are all become such fools to take scoffs for arguments, and raillery for demonstrations? |
A61603 | For what is it that God requires of men as the condition of their future happiness which in its own nature is judged impossible? |
A61603 | Hast thou no other plea for thy self, but that thy sins were fatal? |
A61603 | Is it for men to live soberly, righteously and godly in this world? |
A61603 | Is it to be charitable to the poor, compassionate to those in misery? |
A61603 | Is it to be patient under suffering, moderate in our desires, circumspect in our actions, contented in all conditions? |
A61603 | Is it to do as we would be done by? |
A61603 | Is wit grown so schismatical& sacrilegious, that it can please it self with nothing but holy ground? |
A61603 | Must those be the standard of mankind, who seem to have little left of humane nature, but laughter and the shape of men? |
A61603 | Or is it as fatall for man to believe himself free when he is not so, as it is for him to act when his choice is determined? |
A61603 | Or is it only the freedome of action, and not of choice, that men have an experience of within themselves? |
A61603 | Shall not the apprehension of his excellency make thee now afraid of him? |
A61603 | Was any mans lust or intemperance ever reckoned among the Titles of his honour? |
A61603 | Where was it ever known, that sobriety and temperance, justice and charity were thought the marks of reproach and infamy? |
A61603 | Who ever suffered in their reputation by being thought to be really good? |
A61603 | Who ever yet raised Trophies to his vices, or thought to perpetuate his memory by the glory of them? |
A61603 | Will not the proposal of so excellent a reward, make us swallow some more than ordinary hardships that we might enjoy it? |
A61603 | Wilt thou then charge his Providence with folly, and his Laws with unreasonableness? |
A61603 | art thou only free to ruine and destroy thy self? |
A61603 | but what series of causes is there that doth so necessarily impose upon the common sense of all mankind? |
A60354 | And how is it possible that any Person should want sufficient complete Righteousness, who hath Iehovah himself to be his Righteousness? |
A60354 | And now do you take up the Question, and bring it home to your selves, and propound it seriously to your own Souls: O my Soul, what have I done? |
A60354 | And who is there that being as I am, would go into the Temple to save his Life? |
A60354 | But the question is, Why do they so? |
A60354 | But what is that which He will speak? |
A60354 | But what multitudes take that lawless Liberty, which neither God nor Man allow? |
A60354 | Dare you for all this meet and consult, conspire and contrive for the breaking of his Bands asunder, and the casting away his Cords from you? |
A60354 | First, What is meant by Sion? |
A60354 | Have not I anointed him with mine Holy Oyl, and will they spit in his Face? |
A60354 | Have not I made my Son Ruler over them, and will they not reverence my Son? |
A60354 | Have you not sometimes some secret Checks and inward Gripes? |
A60354 | Have you so much forgotten me? |
A60354 | He is given to be Head: By whom is he so given? |
A60354 | He is in one mind, and who can turn him? |
A60354 | How now? |
A60354 | How shall I fill up my Place? |
A60354 | How shall I improve my Time? |
A60354 | How shall I make use of my Power? |
A60354 | I answer, the Moral Law: But how? |
A60354 | I have set up my King: And what, do they set themselves against him? |
A60354 | I pray give me leave to ask, What have you done? |
A60354 | If it be asked what is that oyl of gladness with which he is anointed? |
A60354 | If you ask who those be that are here called his Fellows? |
A60354 | Instead of a lovely, beautiful Face of Religion, what and how much of the Power of Ungodliness is visible and apparent among us? |
A60354 | Is Christ anointed, constituted, and set up by God the Father, King upon his holy Hill of Sion? |
A60354 | Is not my Will sufficiently declared? |
A60354 | It shall come to pass in the latter days,( and hath he said it, and will he not do it? |
A60354 | Oh that it may be so: but when is it so? |
A60354 | Or what may be the import of that word setting? |
A60354 | Or, the Hill of Gods holiness? |
A60354 | Our first Question is this, What is meant by Sion? |
A60354 | Our fourth Question is this, What God doth mean when he saith, He hath set his King upon his holy hill of Sion? |
A60354 | Our second Question is this, Why is Sion called Gods holy Hill? |
A60354 | Poor Creatures, they are busie as Bees; but what is it they would do if they could? |
A60354 | Secondly, Why is Sion called Gods holy Hill? |
A60354 | Should such a Man as I flee? |
A60354 | Should such a Man as I, one that hath made such a Profession as I have done, one that is advanced to such a Place as I am in, do so or so? |
A60354 | The question is, what was that hand- writing? |
A60354 | The third Question we have to speak unto is this, Who is that King whom God hath set upon his holy hill of Sion? |
A60354 | Thirdly, Who is that King, whom God hath set up there? |
A60354 | Thus do you think with your selves, every one of you, Doth such and such a thing become me? |
A60354 | Upon what Rock? |
A60354 | What a most cursed design, in which Beelzebub and all his Crew, do most heartily join with them? |
A60354 | What brutish and monstrous Whoredom? |
A60354 | What have you done for Christ? |
A60354 | What is that great thing which they are so earnestly bent upon? |
A60354 | What is the import of that Particle in the Text, Yet? |
A60354 | What is the matter with this mad besotted and unchristian World? |
A60354 | What is to do here? |
A60354 | What may we gather from thence? |
A60354 | What mean they by their Raging, Plotting and Combining? |
A60354 | What more than swinish Drunkenness? |
A60354 | What now shall I do for this God? |
A60354 | Why can not Men be quiet? |
A60354 | Why do they combine and unite together against him? |
A60354 | Why do they rage, and set their Wits at work? |
A60354 | Why do they thus bid defiance to the God of Love, to the Prince of Peace? |
A60354 | Why is all this stir and bustle? |
A60354 | Will you study what you shall do for him? |
A60354 | You may ask, what may be the meaning of that? |
A60354 | and will these sorry contemptible Worms be wriggling and moving Disturbances? |
A60354 | how amiable a thing is it for Kings to stand up for Christ, and Christ to stand at the right Hand of Kings? |
A60354 | how art thóu fallen from what thou wast, and some of us can well remember thee to have been? |
A72996 | 10. Who hath despised the day of small things? |
A72996 | 34. but if the Lord be against vs, who can pleade for vs? |
A72996 | 4. doe manifest, but should in the appointed time, feele the power of his heauy, and wrathfull indignation? |
A72996 | BVt for a conclusion, would wee know the cause, why all things doe so differently befall these two sorts of persons? |
A72996 | For else why are men said to be blessed, because they be godly? |
A72996 | I. Lord how are mine aduersaries encreased? |
A72996 | The Lord is the strength of my life, of whom then should I be afraid? |
A72996 | Therefore aboue all things let vs labour for Gods approbation: for if he iustifie, who can condemne? |
A72996 | Why doe the people rage, and the people murmure in vaine? |
A72996 | Why?] |
A72996 | how many rise against me? |
A72996 | how many rise vp in armes and open rebellion? |
A72996 | in the day of wrath how shall other be ouerwhelmed with sorrowes? |
A72996 | you are Iudges, and what more hainous then to contemne your iust decrees? |
A67833 | And how comes it to pass then that our Shame is so Jealous and Quick in regard of Men, but so remiss and languishing in regard of God? |
A67833 | And is not the knowledge of God sufficiently Awful, since He is most of all affronted by our Guilt? |
A67833 | Can you say it is for Services already done? |
A67833 | Do we not by seeking find such Images of things, which we have Spoken, Done, or Thought of several years before? |
A67833 | He that formed the eye, shall not he see? |
A67833 | He that planted the ear, shall not he hear? |
A67833 | He that teacheth man knowledge, shall not he know? |
A67833 | I my self, Your King, what a Temptation must I needs be to You? |
A67833 | Is it not by seeing the Images or Impressions which those several Acts do produce within us? |
A67833 | It is God that teacheth man knowledge, shall not he know? |
A67833 | Nay do not those Images frequently present themselves without our seeking, and make us see them whether we will or no? |
A67833 | Now, is not that sin sufficiently known, of which we acknowledge that God does know it? |
A67833 | Or whither shall I flee from thy Presence? |
A67833 | So he calls it Blasphemy to think that God does not Regard what we do; How long shall the wicked blaspheme God, saying, thou God carest not for it? |
A67833 | That Gods Omniscience carries in it the Power of such a Discovery is no Dispute; the Question is, Whether he actually will make such a Discovery? |
A67833 | Were they Ashamed, when they had committed Abomination? |
A67833 | Whither shall I go from thy spirit? |
A60942 | And what strength doe we think would that give to the True Religion, that is able thus to establish a False? |
A60942 | But here it may be replyed, are not truths of absolute and fundamentall necessity, very disputable: as the Deity of Christ, the Trinity of Persons? |
A60942 | But how will you try that Spirit to be of God? |
A60942 | But why have I produced all these examples of the Heathens? |
A60942 | But will any say that this was to confesse Christ, or dye a Martyr? |
A60942 | But you will say, What Government more sure and absolute than the Turkish, and yet what Religion more false? |
A60942 | Can he be also Finite and Infinite, when to be finite is not to be infinite, and to be infinite not to be finite? |
A60942 | Did ever any man quench his thirst, or satisfie his hunger with a Notion? |
A60942 | Did ever any one live upon Propositions? |
A60942 | For have not our Princes, as well as our Preists bin of the lowest of the People? |
A60942 | Has not Parts and Abilities been reputed Enemies to Grace, and Qualities no wayes Ministeriall? |
A60942 | Have not Coblers, Draymen, Mechanicks Governed, as well as reached? |
A60942 | How are you Justified by an imputed Righteousness? |
A60942 | How doe you know this is the sence of such a Scripture? |
A60942 | If Godly, why doe they wallow and sleep in all the Carnalities of the world, under pretence of Christian liberty? |
A60942 | If it was so fearfull when he looked his Denyer into Repentance, what will it be when he shall look him into Destruction? |
A60942 | If this should come to pass, where would be their Religion? |
A60942 | If to God, then God payes a Price to himself: and what is it else to require and need no satisfaction, then for one to satisfie himself? |
A60942 | Is it to make these a ground of our Imitation? |
A60942 | Is it yours before it is imputed, or not: if not( as we must say) is this to be Justified, to have that accounted yours, that is not yours? |
A60942 | It is hard to maintaine the truth, but much harder to be maintained by it: could it ever yet feed, clothe, or defend its assernors? |
A60942 | Nay have not they by Preaching come to Govern? |
A60942 | Neither let any here reply, that it becomes not a Ministeriall spirit to undertake such a calling for reward? |
A60942 | Now who knows how many Woes are crowded into this one sentence, I will deny him? |
A60942 | Put again, did you ever hear of any man made rich or wise by imputation? |
A60942 | Revilest thou Gods High Priest? |
A60942 | Si negare sufficiat, quis erit Nocens? |
A60942 | Then for his satisfaction, they will demand to whom this satisfaction is paid? |
A60942 | Was ever that of Solomon more verified, that Servants have Rid, while Princes, and Nobles have gone on Foot? |
A60942 | Was he not a man of parts and Wisdome? |
A60942 | What was the cause of this? |
A60942 | What( saies he) can the same Person be God and man? |
A60942 | What( saies the Romanist, relye in matters of faith upon a private Spirit? |
A60942 | Why doe they make religion ridiculous by pretending to Prophecy, and when their prophecies prove delusions, why doe they Blaspheme? |
A60942 | Why? |
A60942 | Yes, but he was poor: But was he not also succesfull as well as wise? |
A60942 | You will say then, How shall we know when to confess, when to conceale a Truth? |
A60942 | You will say then, Why are these places condemned? |
A60942 | and is not Wisdome honourable? |
A60942 | can we ascribe such attributes to the same thing, whereof one implyes a Negation and a Contradiction of the other? |
A60942 | if they are not in themselves disputable, why are they so much disputed? |
A60942 | the Creature and the Creator? |
A60942 | what should be the reason? |
A60942 | when did we see thee in our Courts, and despised or oppressed thee? |
A60942 | when to wait for, when to decline Persecution? |
A60942 | why then Righteous or Just? |
A71286 | Can any be so blinde and voyd of understanding, as to expect any blessing or good at all from them who are the curse of the land? |
A71286 | Doe yee judge uprightly, ô yee sons of men? |
A71286 | How long( saith he) will yee imagine, or devise mischiefe? |
A71286 | Now what state is not miserable where a Band of such wicked Counsellors rule and judge? |
A71286 | Righteous( saith he) art thou, O Lord, when I plead with thee: yet let me talk with thee of thy judgements: Wherefore doth the wicked prosper? |
A71286 | The Prophet Habakkuk useth greater boldnesse, saying, O Lord how long shall I cry unto thee, and thou dost not heare? |
A71286 | What man can securely enjoy his lands, goods, liberty, or life? |
A71286 | Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? |
A71286 | Why dost thou shew me iniquity, and cause me to behold grievance? |
A71286 | and what would they doe to his great name; but blaspheme it, and say, Where is their God? |
A71286 | even cry out of violence, and thou dost not save? |
A71286 | how would the enemy rage more against his holy Majesty? |
A71286 | what peace or safety can be to any righteous man, if God doth not stop these Lyons mouthes, and extraordinarily protect him? |
A55560 | 36? |
A55560 | Again, Doest thou love Christ( O Young man) above thy Estate or this present World? |
A55560 | Again, Is Christ( O young Man) of more esteem unto thee than thy Life? |
A55560 | All Creatures pay Homage unto him, and shall Man refuse? |
A55560 | Am I not all over corrupt, from the Crown of the Head unto the sole of the Foot, full of wounds, bruises and putrifying Sores? |
A55560 | Am I not( especially considering me in my Youth) as an untamed Beast? |
A55560 | And how many have been brought to Ruine thereby? |
A55560 | And shall I here expostulate with the Young man? |
A55560 | And shall not we whom God hath endowed with Reason, and made capaces Religionis, capable of Religion? |
A55560 | And thus our whole Life is crooked and perverse; hast thou gotten it made strait by a sincere Repentance and Reformation? |
A55560 | And what a Cloud of young Worthies are here? |
A55560 | And what are the Streams, compar''d to the Fountain; the Rivers to the Ocean, and the excellencies of the Creature to the Excellencies of the Creator? |
A55560 | And where wilt thou go, Sinner? |
A55560 | Angels desire it, the Spirit strives; Christs Invitation is, Come; the Gospel cries, Now; and what, will you rather listen unto Satan? |
A55560 | Are Gods Smiles our Heaven, and his Frowns our Hell? |
A55560 | Are Old things past away, and all things become New? |
A55560 | Are the wayes of God unequal, his Demands impossible, his Commands intollerable? |
A55560 | Art thou willing to give Christ the First- born of every Affection in thy Soul? |
A55560 | As therefore you would tender your own safety, answer like the Eccho; Lord doest thou call for my Youth? |
A55560 | But how few are there that make this their work, studying how to please God? |
A55560 | By Sin we have Apostatiz''d from God; are we yet return''d unto him? |
A55560 | Can Sin give rest, that is the greatest Evil in the world? |
A55560 | Can that give Rest, that was the first and onely Cause and Founder of Hell? |
A55560 | Can that give rest, that is the Cause of all the Confusions and Desolations that are in the world? |
A55560 | Can that give rest, that makes us like the Devil, that restless Spirit? |
A55560 | Can the Begger soon forget that hand which he constantly receives his Alms from? |
A55560 | Can wicked Men be content to suffer for their Lusts, and will not ye suffer for Christ? |
A55560 | Canst thou preferre Gods Glory before all Secular Interest whatsoever, and even deny thy very Life for him, if called thereunto? |
A55560 | Doest thou love God above all things whatsoever? |
A55560 | Doest thou love him above thy Relations, Estate, and very Life? |
A55560 | Doest thou often revish thy Soul in calling Mercies past to mind, living upon Mercies present, and depending upon Mercies to come? |
A55560 | Doest thou often think on the Mercies of God, so frequently and bountifully conferred on thee? |
A55560 | Doest thou therefore, O my Soul, Remember thy Creator? |
A55560 | Doth it become a Child when commanded, to dispute his Fathers Command? |
A55560 | Doth not the Course of their Lives rather tend to the contrary? |
A55560 | Doth the World lye nearer thy heart than Christ? |
A55560 | Hast thou a New Eye? |
A55560 | Hast thou a New Heart? |
A55560 | Hast thou a New Will? |
A55560 | Hast thou a new Appetite? |
A55560 | Hast thou put thy Love to Christ in one Ballance, and thy Love to the World in another; and doth thy Love to Christ weigh down thy Love to the World? |
A55560 | His Love to thee was stronger than Death, is thy Love to him stronger than Life? |
A55560 | How can ye think then to prosper? |
A55560 | How darest thou to say, that thou Remembrest God, when thou fearest him not, and hast but little dread of his Greatness in thy Heart? |
A55560 | How is it then, that God is no more lov''d than he is, and that even some who profess Love unto him, do not love him above all things whatsoever? |
A55560 | How little is Gods Favour now adayes esteemed of? |
A55560 | How many are there that pick and cull their Duties, and so indeed serve not the will of God, but their own Choyce? |
A55560 | How many years are past, in which thou wast not? |
A55560 | How many, I fear,( especially Young men) may I find tardy in this? |
A55560 | How stands it therefore with us? |
A55560 | How then dost thou love Christ above all things whatsoever? |
A55560 | Is he not our Sovereign, and have any gone on in a course of Rebellion against him, that did ever prosper? |
A55560 | Is it commendable for a Child to obey his Earthly Father, how much more commendable is it then for us to Obey our Heavenly Father? |
A55560 | Is it not a vain thing to stand it out with God, or contend with the Almighty? |
A55560 | Is it not better to live than die, turn than burn? |
A55560 | Is it not his Father that commands him, and therefore he must do it? |
A55560 | Is it not in and by him that thou livest, movest and hast thy being? |
A55560 | Is not the Aire which thou breathest in, his? |
A55560 | Is not the Earth his, whose Fruits do nourish thee most plentifully? |
A55560 | Is not the Night and Day his, whose Intercourses serve for thy Labour and Rest? |
A55560 | Is there good Reason why we should Remember our Creator in the dayes of our Youth? |
A55560 | Is there not a Necessity of Remembring our Creator, if we would prosper? |
A55560 | My Youth, is it not full of Levity, Wantonness and Vanity? |
A55560 | O take it then, and thank thee too; for what is there in me that should attract God, and make him accept of me? |
A55560 | On the transitory things of this world the Soul often seeks for Rest, but finds it not, why? |
A55560 | Shall God call for your Youth, and will you deny it? |
A55560 | Shun Evil Company; Is it not an hard thing for a Bird to flie away that is taken in the Lime- twigs? |
A55560 | Sixthly, If you have your Life prolonged, and the Means of Grace continued, yet if no more gales of the Spirit be afforded, what art thou the nearer? |
A55560 | That answer the Lord with half- Obedience, like the Eccho, which makes not a perfect Respondence of the Voice, but of some part thereof? |
A55560 | The Curse of the Law hangs on thee, why dost thou not satisfie its Demands, and Appeal to the Grace of God in Christ for freedom therefrom? |
A55560 | The Devil he is for the prime of our Dayes, and God he is for the prime of our Dayes, and who hath the most right, God or the Devil? |
A55560 | The Holy Scriptures are a Rule, hast thou measured thy Life by it? |
A55560 | The Wind and Seas do obey him, and shall We turn Rebels? |
A55560 | The prime of our Affections must God have; and indeed who deserves them more than He? |
A55560 | This is too strict, say some; what need is there of it, say others? |
A55560 | Thou fearest thy Father and Mother, thy Master, and such who have the Rule over thee; but doest thou fear thy Maker? |
A55560 | Thy miseries( O Natural man) are many, great, and intolerable, why dost thou not endeavour to extricate thy self out of them? |
A55560 | Verily, our selves have not so great a right unto our selves, as He? |
A55560 | View often the Creation of the World; what Man in the World can forget God, that has himself and the whole Creation to contemplate at any time? |
A55560 | What Worship and Adoration hath the Sun had? |
A55560 | What sayest thou now, wilt thou resolve to think now and then on this precious Creator of ours? |
A55560 | What sayest thou? |
A55560 | Who can soon forget a holy God, that may read of him every day in the Holy Scriptures? |
A55560 | Who lives to please God, but rather to displease him? |
A55560 | Why can not we find in our hearts to obey our Father, Creator and Lord? |
A55560 | Why, is not God the Father of us all by Creation, and are we not obliged to Obey him? |
A55560 | Would it not be more advantagious to lay down the Weapons, and crie peccavi, than to wrestle and be foyl''d, fight and be kill''d? |
A55560 | You can not not serve God too soon, why then do you not begin, run, and keep on in that way? |
A55560 | and are they not Honoured, Renowned and made Famous, and that for their soon beginning? |
A55560 | and doest thou so Remember him as to Love him? |
A55560 | and doest thou so love him, as to love him above all things whatsoever? |
A55560 | and if we please him not, can we be saved? |
A55560 | but can we remember him aright, if we please him not? |
A55560 | canst thou lay it down for his sake? |
A55560 | is there a Conversion of the whole man unto God? |
A55560 | who shall have them, if not He? |
A55560 | will nothing prevail with you? |
A55560 | will you have recourse to the good things of this world, to Creature- comforts and Enjoyments; to Friends, Relations, Estate, and the like? |
A16890 | And did not the Lord after all these, in that desperate rebellion& treason unmatchable, set the sword to the hearts of us all? |
A16890 | And hath not that sword of the blood- thirstie enemie beene drawne oft upon us? |
A16890 | And may not the Lord therefore as he threatneth, cause the Sunne to goe downe at noone, and darken the earth in the cleare day? |
A16890 | And shall this word in their mouthes be vaine; Shall he threaten and shall he not doe it? |
A16890 | And to draw towards the conclusion of this point; what meanes that increase of outrage for Popery and all profanenesse? |
A16890 | And when is it that the Lord brings them? |
A16890 | And wherein, saith he, shall it be knowne that I and thy people have found favour in thy sight? |
A16890 | And why dealeth the Lord thus carefully with Noah? |
A16890 | And why? |
A16890 | Are not these and the like, the things whereby we are commonly waxen so strong and safe in our owne conceit? |
A16890 | Are we not become( I meane exceeding 〈 ◊ 〉 of us) as they who said, The Lord will neither doe good nor evill? |
A16890 | Are we not come very generally to cry, Peace, peace, and all is well, desiring to be at ease, as they who trusted in the mountaine of Samaria? |
A16890 | Are we not growne to this passe, for the most part, to be ashamed of talking or reasoning of it? |
A16890 | But alas, have we not here a new cause to take up a dolefull complaint for the want hereof? |
A16890 | But did the proud Assyrian know thus much, how God used him as his soldier? |
A16890 | But hath he left us without further testimonies of his anger since? |
A16890 | Can euer any wretched sinner cry out, Men and Brethren, what shall I doe, that I may be saued, vntill he haue his soule thus pierced? |
A16890 | Can there be a more visible messenger of the Lords anger? |
A16890 | Can we ever looke to be freed from the danger, untill we more generally abhorre their waies? |
A16890 | Could they or durst they ever have attempted those things of themselves alone? |
A16890 | Did not all joyne cheerefully as one man, of one heart and of one soule, for the building up the Temple of the Lord? |
A16890 | Did not many an English heart tremble for feare therof? |
A16890 | Did not other nations wonder at the most incredible inthronizing of our dread Soveraigne and liege Lord in such an unexpected peace? |
A16890 | Did that proud Nebuchadnezzar of Rome sound out his bellowing Bulls, to move all the Lords people to rebell against his Annoynted? |
A16890 | Did these( I say) come only of themselves, in the malice and hautinesse of their hearts, and without the Lord so disposing and threatning us by them? |
A16890 | Did we not heare before of the vengeance on Israell in the dayes of Ioshuah for the sin of Achan? |
A16890 | Do they not hereupon thinke, that no crueltie can be devised sufficient for us, no not the butchering or blowing us up all at once? |
A16890 | Do we not in steed hereof waxe weary of it very generally, hearing it commonly for a fashion, or for satisfying of the law, or some like respect? |
A16890 | Doe not our lives proclaime it? |
A16890 | Doe not the Popish sort blaspheme the religion of the Lord established among us, for the extreme irreligiousnesse of the lives of too many of us? |
A16890 | For what other thing did the threatning of destruction, so neerely to be executed, signifie, but even as to Ninivie? |
A16890 | Hath he not sundry times threatned most manifestly the utter removing of it; so as all of us have oft feared, his final departing and leaving of us? |
A16890 | Hath not that glorious name of a Christian become a nick- name& a name of reproach with too many? |
A16890 | Hath not the glory of the Lord made a sensible remove in this behalfe? |
A16890 | How deceive you your soules in a vaine imagination? |
A16890 | How much losse now, when so many Achan ● be in euery corner, and Ionah asleepe euery where in the eyes of all? |
A16890 | How that worthy Captaine with his valiant soldiers were not able to stand before their enemies, untill Achans sinne was found out& punished? |
A16890 | If you beare false hearts to the Lords annointed and to your native country; how can you looke that vengeance shall suffer you to live? |
A16890 | In a word; Is it not with us for the most part, as with them that lived immediately before the floud, and before the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrha? |
A16890 | Is not the very day darke over them( as we may so speake) for seeing their owne sinnes, or the fearfull sins of the Land? |
A16890 | Is not this the onely way to driue vs to behold the true brasen serpent, when we feele our selues stung at our hearts? |
A16890 | Is this the Spirit of the Lord? |
A16890 | Is this the spirit of Lot, Moses, Samuel, Ieremie, Ezra, of these mourners heere marked? |
A16890 | Let us see what we can answere him herein? |
A16890 | May he not justly say unto us all, even unto our whole Nation, for this very sin, as he said to the King of Israel for letting Benadad goe? |
A16890 | May he not righteously forsake and leave us into their hands, as he left Iudah unto the Babylonian? |
A16890 | May not then the Lord most justly make a finall remove? |
A16890 | Must not all needs acknowledge, that our glory is much departed in these respects? |
A16890 | Of our Saviour or Pavl? |
A16890 | Oh that this may be well thought of, for sundry parts of our Land? |
A16890 | Or as those that spake against Ieremie, to ● ull themselves and all others still asleepe; saying, we shall neither see sword nor famine? |
A16890 | Or hath he so often practised our destruction both openly and secretly altogither without the Lord? |
A16890 | Shall it not be when thou goest up with us? |
A16890 | That zeale of Lot for all our unlawfull deeds? |
A16890 | The Lord God hath spoken, who can but prophecie? |
A16890 | Then the word came vnto the Prophet at that very instant, saying, O house of Israel, can not I doe with you, as this Potter, saith the Lord? |
A16890 | What heart was so flintie, which dissolved not into teares for sundry of them? |
A16890 | What heart wished not, that it might never see that day? |
A16890 | What is become of Moses, Samuel, Ieremie, Paul, and of that continuall heavinesse, which they were in, for the obstinacie of the people? |
A16890 | What soule did not for the present extoll the Lord of glory for it, as being his onely worke? |
A16890 | When by the same spirit some are pricked at their hearts with remorse for their sinnes and made to cry out; Men and brethren, what shall we doe? |
A16890 | Where are the two Prophets, prophesi ● ng after the manner of mourners, for the prevayling of that Antichrist, and the delusions of Gods people? |
A16890 | Where are those whose hearts melt to thinke how the law of God is troden under foote, and his judgements hastned daily by all our provocations? |
A16890 | Who can be so voyde of sense, or so brutish, as yet to have lost the fresh remembrance of it? |
A16890 | Who can denie this heavy hand of God amongst vs? |
A16890 | and principally, the spirituall meanes of the word of the Lord? |
A16890 | as we justly deserue: Or what have ye done to turne it from us? |
A16890 | did not our desperate rebels make their certaine account of it? |
A16890 | did they not exalt themselves against the Lord of Hosts in it, as his vengeance taken upon some of the cheife of them openly did notably declare? |
A16890 | every part of it altogither? |
A16890 | how we extoll his great name for it, by advancing his religion, that he might be the better knowne and feared amongst us? |
A16890 | nothing wanting in effect, but putting fire to the match to have blowne up and utterly carried away all our glory? |
A16890 | of whom Amos speaketh: and those who cryed, the Temple of the Lord, the Temple of the Lord? |
A16890 | or did he purpose in it to execute Gods wrath, and his terrible judgement? |
A16890 | the desperatest ding- thrifts and sharpest swords, slashing downe and carying all away? |
A16890 | were not our mouthes at that time filled with laughter, and our hearts with ioy, for this so wonderfull a remaining of our glory? |
A16890 | were we not, as it were, within a minute of the execution? |
A16890 | what can we answer to any one of these? |
A16890 | what desire we shew to retaine him? |
A16890 | what greater hatred and detestation of it, is wrought in us, than heretofore? |
A16890 | what will ye doe in the day of the Lords wrath, if he let it come upon us? |
A16890 | when they were as the bush in the midst of the fire that yet consumed not? |
A16890 | whether that lively presence which did shake their hearts, be not utterly gone? |
A16890 | who can be able to appeare before the Lord? |
A16890 | would not then all such be made Puritanes of the Parliament house? |
A70011 | And doe we wonder that God visits for these things? |
A70011 | But can you prove this charge? |
A70011 | Hieron: ad Theoph: adv: Joan: Hierosol: Quid dominationem pacem vocamus,& non reddimus unicuique rei vocabulum suum? |
A70011 | How can they expect peace by Christ; who oppose, or care not for his person, Ministers, Ordinances, and people? |
A70011 | In respect of the enemy; shall not my soul be avenged on such a people at this p? |
A70011 | Is Ireland gone; Do the States look on; does not Scotland help; is York, Newcastle, Oxford, Weles, Reading, Cirencester taken? |
A70011 | Now can we wonder why, when we make many prayers the Lord doth not heare us? |
A70011 | This man, Where two Questions, First, What is meant by this man? |
A70011 | What Thunderbolts then may we think God is sharpning against our faces? |
A70011 | Which is so large, that all differences full under some branch of it: if the question be what is truth in point of Doctrine? |
A70011 | Why not, shall bring, or procure? |
A70011 | Why? |
A70011 | a And he asks concerning Zedekiah the question, Shall a man break the Covenant? |
A70011 | and that his soule doth avenge it selfe on such a nation as this? |
A70011 | and that of the Prophet, b behold I begin to bring evill in the City which is called by upon my name, and shall ye be unpunished? |
A70011 | but how doth it appeare? |
A70011 | have we not procured these things to our selves? |
A70011 | such a Bishop? |
A70011 | such a Gentleman? |
A70011 | such a Knight? |
A70011 | though it were but with a man, b and be delivered? |
A70011 | what evill have wee done, to cause a decree of execution to come forth? |
A87103 | Shall such stars fall from the firmement, and no eyes behold it? |
A87103 | There is a perishing that is common to the Righteous with the wicked: will you know what it is? |
A87103 | no heart consider it? |
A67821 | And how convictive of our Insensibility, if God can not arrive to the Honour of being esteemed the Delight of Mankind? |
A67821 | And how many that the Confinedness of his Power must necessarily disappoint? |
A67821 | And how should we be able to look more like our selves, that is, Erect and Rational? |
A67821 | And if God be the Chief thing to be delighted in Hereafter, how Reasonable is it that he should be delighted in Now? |
A67821 | And let not any Carnal Imagination cry within it self, I am defeated, if my Desires must be changed, for how shall I be happy without the present? |
A67821 | And what now can make all this Difference, but only a different Respect for our Master? |
A67821 | And yet how many of Mankind were there that Titu''s Benefactions could not reach? |
A67821 | For let us consider yet farther, If God be not delighted in Now, How shall we be able to delight in him Hereafter? |
A67821 | He therefore that will Enter into the Kingdom of Heaven, let him Enter: Why stands he at a Distance from the State he pretends to desire? |
A67821 | How great is the summ of them? |
A67821 | How much more happily will one Desire fill, and take up the whole Soul, when a Man shall make God his Treasure? |
A67821 | If the Ambitious Man had his Desire, he would have more Honour; and, if he had, what would follow, but only that he would be more Insolent? |
A67821 | If the Intemperate Man had his Desire, he would have more Health; and, if he had, what would follow, but only that he would be more Intemperate? |
A67821 | Is not Comfort in it self a Delight? |
A67821 | Now how can any one desire more than this, To be at the same time Content, and Ioyful, and Safe? |
A67821 | Now if Conscience may thus be delighted in, my Argument runs, How much more reasonably may God be delighted in, who is the Rewarder of Conscience? |
A67821 | Now who can doubt but that under this Contemplation God is the most proper Object of our Delight? |
A67821 | Or why looks he for Another Opportunity; whereas there is no other but the present? |
A67821 | So that, supposing a Man''s Mind to be but religiously bent, there is no other Circumstance can exclude him;( exclude him did I say?) |
A67821 | That if Heaven be to be delighted in, God is more? |
A67821 | That it comes in the Season when we have most need of it: And do not the Exigencies of our Life afford any Seasons wherein Comfort would be welcome? |
A67821 | The Contentious Man would have more Authority; and, if he had, what would follow, but only that he would be more Injurious? |
A67821 | The Scoffer would have more Wit; and, if he had, what would follow, but only that he would be more abusive? |
A30608 | & c. He heard that Esau was coming against him with a great company;& what doth Iacob? |
A30608 | 36. what is said of our joyning with the people of God, how excellent is thy loving kindnesse, wherein appears the excellency? |
A30608 | Again, those that appeared on the one side how were they discouraged extraordinarily? |
A30608 | Again, what is that thing that you strive to make most sure? |
A30608 | All the nations of the earth are but as the dust of the ballance, and a drop of the bucket to God, what is thy dust then? |
A30608 | And Iehoshaphat said ▪ O Lord God of our fathers, art not thou God in heaven, and rulest over all Kingdomes? |
A30608 | And call your hearts to question, what do I do with my estate for God? |
A30608 | And doth not God for the present curse thy portion? |
A30608 | And if mercies should come, what a daunting would this be to our hearts, that mercies are come, but we have not sought them? |
A30608 | And now I go to hear the word, and out of the word he calls unto me, and seeks me, let me say, Lord what sayest thou to thy servant? |
A30608 | Art thou one of the seed of Iacob, and hast sought God and sayest, thou hast had no answer? |
A30608 | Art thou sorry for what thou hast done? |
A30608 | Behold I die, but I die in faith of the promise: because I am taken away shall I think the promise shall be of no effect? |
A30608 | Boniface the martyr when he was asked the question, if he might have the sacrament, if he would drink it in a wooden challice? |
A30608 | But 2. further, I put this to you; do you spend as much breath in praying for these kind of men, as you do in rayling upon them? |
A30608 | But art thou of the seed of Iacob? |
A30608 | But by what means shall these mercies be bestowed on then? |
A30608 | But how comes it thus to passe, that men should be so greedy of this their portion? |
A30608 | But how many broken Gentry expected to raise their condition on the other side? |
A30608 | But it follows upon it, notwithstanding when the Sonne of man comes shall he find faith on earth? |
A30608 | But now, wherein doth it appear that it is not in vain to seek the Lord? |
A30608 | But what hath he done of late? |
A30608 | But what if David should now perish in this distresse, should God be any looser by it? |
A30608 | But what is there in the Saints that makes them the excellent in the earth? |
A30608 | But what is this supernaturall manner of serving God? |
A30608 | But when I pray in the time of affliction, and Gods hand is on me, will it not be in vain to call unto him then? |
A30608 | But wherein lyeth the efficacy of prayer? |
A30608 | But why sayest thou so O Iacob? |
A30608 | But you will say, how is God present with his Saints more then in other places; why is God said to dwell among his people, his Saints? |
A30608 | But you will say; Lord, what will become of us? |
A30608 | But you''l say, if men be in an errour, why should they not be forc''d, shall every man be left to his opinion, to do what he will? |
A30608 | But( you''le say) do you think to preach to men that have their portion here in this life? |
A30608 | Can you make good that you are one of the seed of Iacob? |
A30608 | Canst thou say that thou art of the Church? |
A30608 | Consider how do the losse of the things of the world, take thy heart; dost not thou account thy self an undone man, when thou had lost some comforts? |
A30608 | Did not David cry oft, and yet his enemies did not turn their backs when he cryed? |
A30608 | England, Ireland, and Scotland, are but 3. little spots unto the world, and what are your farmes and your mannours? |
A30608 | Esau when he comes to Iacob, when Iacob would have given him his present, saith he, what meanest thou by all these droves which I met? |
A30608 | Examine then whether these things of the world, be not the onely suitable things to your hearts? |
A30608 | First understand, who they are, you speak off; do you know wherein you and they differ? |
A30608 | First, the poor things that men have here in this world, what are they? |
A30608 | For what Nation is there so great, who hath God so nigh unto them as the Lord our God is in all things that we call upon him for? |
A30608 | God can say I have my end in these: Take any town where there are but two or three that are godly, what glory hath God but of these? |
A30608 | God desires Zion; what is Zion, but onely his Saints and people joyned together? |
A30608 | Hast thou not known? |
A30608 | Hast thou nothing to put into the scoales but this? |
A30608 | Hath not God done great things heretofore, in 88. and in the powder plot and at other times? |
A30608 | He cryed oft when his enemies prevailed: yet he saith, When I cried then mine enemies turned back: and this I know, why? |
A30608 | How do you know such an ones child, but by his likenesse to his father? |
A30608 | How excellent is thy loving kindnesse? |
A30608 | How is that? |
A30608 | How long will ye love vanity and seek after leasing? |
A30608 | How many prayers have we put up to God, and find not the issue? |
A30608 | I appeal to thy conscience; when thou hast gone to pray to God, hast thou propounded this end? |
A30608 | I but who have you spoke too all this while? |
A30608 | I hear indeed there are some menare put of so, what if that should prove to be my portion what a miserable creature were I? |
A30608 | I see how things are like to be, the enemie prevails and is like to overrun all: had it not been better that I had not ingaged my self so much? |
A30608 | I, now you seek God, but this is in your affliction, and will God regard you now? |
A30608 | If there be nothing but vanity, how canst thou expect that God should hear them? |
A30608 | If there were nothing else, what a delightfull thing is it saith the heart? |
A30608 | If they had prevailed how would they have blasphemed? |
A30608 | If thou have been a publick instrument, and hast done good and yet if in fear of successe thou hast repented? |
A30608 | If you ask what this excellency of Iacob is? |
A30608 | Is it in vain to serve the Lord? |
A30608 | Is the plowing, and the sowing of the husbandman, and all the showers in vain; because the corn is not in the barn? |
A30608 | Is this thy care? |
A30608 | It may be his estate, his houses, his lands may be somewhat worth, but what is his heart worth? |
A30608 | It was that that stayed the Psalmist, he began to reason as you do, that he had sought God without answer, Will the Lord cast off for ever? |
A30608 | Lastly, what art thou most carefull to lay up for thy children? |
A30608 | Many of you when you apprehend your selves to be in trouble, you then cry to God to be preserved: but to what end? |
A30608 | Now if thou prove a fornicatour thou art of the seed of Esau, or a profane person; what is that? |
A30608 | O must I leave you? |
A30608 | O our God, saith he, wilt thou not judge them? |
A30608 | O such a man is happy, he hath so much coming in, and hath so much a year; but dost thou call the vile man happy? |
A30608 | O wretch, why hast thou left? |
A30608 | On the one side how unfaithfull have they been? |
A30608 | Our slighting of the Gospell because we had it so ordinarie might have caused God to take it from us; and hath God restored it? |
A30608 | Secondly, Iecob was one that feared God, when God appeared to him he looked on the presence of God as dreadfull, How dreadfull is this place? |
A30608 | See what thou dost most admire men for? |
A30608 | So for other places where hath God glory but for a few contemptibile ones? |
A30608 | So the men of the world, they have respect, but what is it for? |
A30608 | The Psalmist saith, O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into shame? |
A30608 | The ambassadours of the king of Babylon came to congratulate with Hezekiah after his recovery: but what was the businesse? |
A30608 | The seed of Esau, what is that? |
A30608 | The state of the Church is called heaven, For what is there in heaven but is here? |
A30608 | The word of God shall be made good, but how? |
A30608 | They shall be abundantly satisfied; how? |
A30608 | Thirdly, live like such as God hath not put off with the portion of this world? |
A30608 | This incouragement we have, that there is not any of us that seek God alone, but we joyn with thousands: why should our place be found empty? |
A30608 | Thou sayest thou hast prayed, and thou thinkest thou hast not answer: hast thou believed this promise in the Text? |
A30608 | Thy way O God is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God? |
A30608 | Were it not for a few gracious men, and women, what glory should God have in all the world? |
A30608 | What great things hath thy master done? |
A30608 | What hope hath an hypocrite though he hath gained, when God takes away his soul? |
A30608 | What is our inheritance? |
A30608 | What is that? |
A30608 | What is the delight of God, but the seeing of the shining of his glory in his works? |
A30608 | What is the mountain of God? |
A30608 | What is to make use of the memoriall we celebrate? |
A30608 | What makes prayer so powerfull with God? |
A30608 | What of him? |
A30608 | What use shall we make of it? |
A30608 | What was Iacobs inheritance? |
A30608 | What was that? |
A30608 | Where should the King of glory come but into his Church? |
A30608 | Where were those prayers of all the Saints that he must take a censer and offer incense with? |
A30608 | Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? |
A30608 | Who is it that can not tell histories of Gods gracious dealing with him upon his calling unto him? |
A30608 | Who is the King of glory? |
A30608 | Who shall ascend in to the hill of the Lord? |
A30608 | Why? |
A30608 | Why? |
A30608 | Would you desire that God should blesse you with the chief mercies that he hath? |
A30608 | Would you not delight to keep house with God? |
A30608 | You may hear them sometimes tell with joy that we were in such a place, and were so merry,& had the bravest meeting, and what was there? |
A30608 | You will say, Why are the people of God called the seed of Iacob, rather then the seed of Abraham, or the seed of Isaac? |
A30608 | You will say, humbled, for what? |

A70654 | May I not say, as David to the People, Rent your Clothes, and gird you with Sackcloth, and mourne before Abner? |
A70654 | Were they apostatised? |
A70654 | Who knows not all this to bee true, who knevv this Mans conversation? |
A70654 | and what He meanes to doe with us? |
A70654 | art thou a gainer by their deaths? |
A70654 | blessed be God, who hath rid his Church of a great enemy: Is such a rich Mandead? |
A70654 | dost thou imagine to rest more safely, because the pillars of the house which covers thee are taken away? |
A70654 | had she never any better store? |
A70654 | had they voluntarily left her? |
A70654 | or dost thou conceive that God hath taken them away to gratifie thee? |
A70654 | or, what we have done to provoke him thus far against us? |
A70654 | the world is well rid of a griping Usurer, a cruell Oppressor, a Mammonist, who had his portion in this World: Is such a great Schollar dead? |
A70654 | vvhat a World of threats and menaces have bin sent Him from time to time? |
A70654 | what great man is this day fallenin our Israell? |
A70654 | who considereth the bitter things which God writes against us? |
A61615 | A contempt of God and Religion, Which said unto God, Depart from us; and what can the Almighty do for them? |
A61615 | And shall we think much to serve so Wise, so Merciful, so Gracious a God? |
A61615 | And therefore as Job saith to his Friends, Shall not his excellency make you afraid? |
A61615 | And thou sayest, how doth God know? |
A61615 | And what profit shall we have if we pray unto him? |
A61615 | And what was their great and provoking sin? |
A61615 | And wilt thou pursue the dry stubble? |
A61615 | And, I have sinned, what shall I do unto thee, O thou preserver of men? |
A61615 | But if so good, so vertuous, so sincere a Man as Job, had such terrible apprehensions of God, what can we wretched sinners think of him? |
A61615 | But is there such a thing as Reason among Mankind? |
A61615 | But suppose some to have much greater care to restrain their desires than others; yet saith he, What is man, that he should be clean? |
A61615 | But what is it he appeals to Antiquity for, and the observations of all former Ages? |
A61615 | But when and where did this race of Mankind live, whom these designing Men first cheated into the belief of a Deity, and the practice of Religion? |
A61615 | Can a man, saith Eliphaz, be profitable to God, as he that is wise may be profitable to himself? |
A61615 | Can we appeal to God as to the sincerity of our hearts in his fear and service, as Job did? |
A61615 | Can we judge of what is true and false; probable or improbable; certain or uncertain? |
A61615 | Doth not this seem to lessen the comfort and satisfaction of a good Conscience, when such a one as Job was afraid of God? |
A61615 | For as Job saith, Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? |
A61615 | For let us consider, Was it not God who formed us in our Mothers Womb, and so curiously framed and fashioned all the parts of our Bodies? |
A61615 | For, from whence comes all the peace of a good Conscience, but from him? |
A61615 | For, what are our shallow and dark and confused conceptions of things, to his Divine Wisdom? |
A61615 | Is it not He, that hath exercised so much patience, and long- suffering, and goodness towards us in order to our Repentance? |
A61615 | Is it not He, who still wonderfully continues our Peace and Plenty, amidst all the sad complaints, and miserable condition of our Neighbours? |
A61615 | Or must some things be run down, without examining? |
A61615 | Shall we complain that our Physician doth not humour our palates, when he designs our health? |
A61615 | That still offers to us the most unvaluable Blessings of the pardon of our Sins, and everlasting Happiness upon our sincere Repentance? |
A61615 | Was it not He, that made all the Parts of the World about us so serviceable and beneficial to us? |
A61615 | We can not deny the follies of Mankind about Religion, either Ancient or Modern: but when was it given to all the World to be wise? |
A61615 | What apprehensions of God then may we entertain in our minds, when even Job was afraid of him? |
A61615 | What is the Almighty that we should serve him? |
A61615 | What it was made Job so apprehensive of Gods anger that he was afraid of him, when he pleads so much for his own Integrity towards God and Man? |
A61615 | Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? |
A61615 | Would not some of the Roman Emperours, who had none to controul them, have been glad to have eased themselves of the fears of an invisible Power? |
A61615 | and he which is born of a woman, that he should be righteous? |
A61615 | and his dread fall upon you? |
A61615 | and if he were false in his Religion, how could he expect he should be his Friend? |
A61615 | and others taken up, without any other colour of reason, than because they serve to such a purpose? |
A61615 | and what content can there be from him, the very thoughts of whom make us afraid? |
A61615 | can he judge through the dark Cloud? |
A61615 | he insists so much upon his own Integrity? |
A61615 | if when he considered, he was afraid of him; have not we reason when we consider, to sink into despair? |
A61615 | yea, who continues our Laws, our Government, our Religion amidst all the Fears and Conspiracies which have been among us? |
A68204 | 2 He that will pray must first beleeue( saith the Apostle) How can they call vpon him in whom they do not beleeue? |

A57979 | But what be these which goe before faith in Christ? |
A57979 | Can God say Amen to this in Brittaine? |

A57979 | It is high as Heaven, what canst thou doe? |
A57979 | My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? |
A57979 | Neverthelesse he departed not from the sinnes of Jeroboam the sonne of Nobat; O how fearfull to be under this? |

A57979 | O how softly and compassionately doth his heavenly hand put in joynt the bones of a broken heart? |

A57979 | The Lord hath chastised me sore; shall he lie in that condition? |
A57979 | The Lyon hath roared, who would not feare? |
A57979 | The former question is a generall, a wicked Marcion asketh, why the Lord, who foresaw the event, did suffer Evah and the Devill to conferre? |
A57979 | The other question is also soone answered: Why should the cause of God be so oppressed, and his Churches garments rolled in blood? |
A57979 | The other question is, What warrant hath any weake doubter to beleeve that God is his God in Christ? |
A57979 | The soule is first put to What shall I doe? |
A57979 | The woman diseased with the bloudy issue, heard of Jesus, and therefore came and touched the hemme of his garment: What had she heard? |
A57979 | Then if it be said, What is thy name, who layest hold on Christ? |
A57979 | They leane upon the Lord, saying, Is not the Lord amongst us? |
A57979 | Thirdly, if he be God enduring for ever, What fooles are we to place our hope in a King that shall die? |
A57979 | VVhat is nothing? |
A57979 | What Warrant or Law have they to begge? |

A57979 | What thoughts can I have of gaine, lust, pleasure, court, when wormes shall make their nests in my eye- holes? |
A57979 | When did the Lord ever finally prosper his bloody- hearted enemies? |
A57979 | When the minde is upon this or the like: What shall the wrath or the smiles of a King doe to mee, when my eye- strings shall bee broken? |
A57979 | Where dwelleth hee? |
A57979 | Where is there a worldly Kingdome that can not be shaken? |
A57979 | Whether Application bee essentiall to Faith or not? |
A57979 | Who liveth as having no morrow? |
A57979 | Why doth God suffer sinne to be, and so much sinne in England and Ireland? |
A57979 | Why doth hee suffer his people in Covenant with him, to bee a land of bloud? |
A57979 | Why is the wall of the daughter of Zion sprinkled with blood? |
A57979 | Why should Daniels enemies prevaile so as to cast him to Lions? |
A57979 | Why should an Arrow smite Achab betwixt the joynts of the harnesse, and kill him? |
A57979 | Why? |
A57979 | and will hee forfeit Heaven, and will hee not forfeit you all, and your Parliament and Liberties? |
A57979 | are they my sins? |
A57979 | but omnipotence holdeth it up: who hath Arms to spread a web of black darknesse from the East to the West? |
A57979 | canst thou finde out the Almighty unto perfection? |
A57979 | deeper then hell, what canst thou know? |
A57979 | for since I did speake against him, I doe earnestly remember him, my bowels are troubled for him, I will surely have mercy on him, saith the Lord? |
A57979 | how great is his beauty? |
A57979 | in earth, in Hell, or in Heaven? |
A57979 | is he a pleasant childe? |
A57979 | is it sure to trust in the Prince who returneth to his Earth, the Earth whereof he is a landed heritor, when he dieth? |
A57979 | it is the least thing that can be, but( I pray you) what is lesse then nothing? |
A57979 | or, Is there knowledge in the Almightie? |
A57979 | that these knees that bowed often to God, and these hands which was lifted up to him, should be eaten with Lions? |
A57979 | thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back? |
A57979 | unbeliefe soundeth no such cry to Heaven? |
A57979 | what shall we render to him? |
A57979 | who hath given the Lord counsell? |
A57979 | who hath strength above the strength of God? |
A57979 | who marshalleth bullets through the Aire? |
A57979 | who walketh as if death were alwayes at his right side? |
A02148 | A godly man, is blessed in soule, but is miserable in body? |
A02148 | Ahasuerus asked Haman, What should be done to the man, whom the King would honour? |
A02148 | And how then can scorning be so great a sinne; being found in him, in whom is nothing but transcendent goodnesse? |
A02148 | And how then, O my soule, canst thou avoid the extasie of Peter and Iohn, but to thinke of this? |
A02148 | And how then, shall we come to know, the delighting which is true and perfect, from that which is counterfeit and defective? |
A02148 | And if bond be thought too little; have we not then a good pawne besides? |
A02148 | And if we passe from the hope it selfe; to that which is hoped for; Oh then, how transcendent a blessednesse will be found in hope? |
A02148 | And if wee take another way to goe; will it not come to all one journies end? |
A02148 | And indeed, in this kinde of rising; how can any of the ungodly rise; who have so many standing ready to pull them downe? |
A02148 | And indeed, is it not strange, that men who have out lived yesterday; should think there can be happinesse where there is time? |
A02148 | And indeed, what society can there bee, betweene a tree, and chaffe? |
A02148 | And is it possible, the Prophet should ever be able, to answer this? |
A02148 | And may it not now be truely said, that the Prophet hath performed both his prizes,''to the full? |
A02148 | And now tell me, if the Prophet were not well advised, to make use of a similitude? |
A02148 | And now, if any man slight this hope, as thinking it not worthy the name of a blessednes; is it not, because hee hath no feeling of it in himselfe? |
A02148 | And now, if any man slight this joy, as not deserving the name of blessednes; Is it not, because hee feeles it not in himselfe? |
A02148 | And now, if we should aske the world, what it saies to all this? |
A02148 | And now, that we have found out a godly man, in Hypothesi: where may we looke to finde him out in Thesi? |
A02148 | And now, what meanes the Prophet by saying; The wicked are not so? |
A02148 | And shall not the truth of ioy, make us more blessed, than the type made Abraham? |
A02148 | And what by the time? |
A02148 | And what by these leafes? |
A02148 | And what by this fruit? |
A02148 | And what by this planting? |
A02148 | And what by this waters side? |
A02148 | And what is then the present possession, they so much stand upon; and so much boast of? |
A02148 | And what remaines then, but that he should doe nothing else, but lie? |
A02148 | And where are they now, that are afraid of melancholy, in the midst of such delights? |
A02148 | And where then? |
A02148 | And why should not even worldly men, bee sensible of this delight? |
A02148 | And why then, should not the Prophet, though but in respect of these blessings, say Blessed is the man? |
A02148 | And will not this blessednesse appeare yet plainer; if we consider the divers sorts of blessednesse? |
A02148 | Arrham Spiritus Sancti; a pawne and pledge, of the holy Spirit? |
A02148 | But are not these strange markes, to begin withall? |
A02148 | But doth not the Prophets adding of this piece; make the Prophet himselfe defective? |
A02148 | But have then ungodly men counsell? |
A02148 | But how happens this sudden alteration in the Prophet? |
A02148 | But is it not strange, to see how contrary the Prophet proceeds here, to our expecting? |
A02148 | But is it not strange, wee should not know the ground we goe upon; whether it rise or fall; whether it be ascending or descending? |
A02148 | But is it not then, that we are all this while mistakenin blessednes? |
A02148 | But is it not, that Animus cuiusque is est quisque? |
A02148 | But is it not, that David knew better the extent of his words, than to bee so superfluous: For ever since the time, of which Moses saith? |
A02148 | But is it not, that wee mistake the Prophet; and make his words a gradation; when, perhaps, he meant them for levell ground? |
A02148 | But is not this a strange inference? |
A02148 | But is not this rather, to deale hardly with the Prophet? |
A02148 | But is not this strange, that a man should want,& yet be perfect? |
A02148 | But is there delight then, in the Law of God? |
A02148 | But is this such good newes for a godly man? |
A02148 | But may not the Prophet preach this doctrine long enough, before he meet with an auditory, that wil believe him? |
A02148 | But may we not make a stand here, and question the Prophet, about his similitude? |
A02148 | But now to consider it in Allegory; what may wee thinke, is meant by this tree? |
A02148 | But what happinesse can a godly man expect from this similitude of a tree? |
A02148 | But what is this to us? |
A02148 | But what matter is it, when the fruit is gathered; whether the leafes continue still, or no? |
A02148 | But what? |
A02148 | But why doth the Prophet say; The Lord knoweth the way of the righteous; and saith not rather, The Lord knoweth the righteous? |
A02148 | But why should the Prophet require day and night, to be spent in the doing of Gods Law? |
A02148 | But why would the Prophet speake of delighting in the Law of God; and not speake rather, of delighting in God himselfe? |
A02148 | But why would the Prophet, use any Negatives at all; and not rather relie wholy upon Affirmatives? |
A02148 | But will not this bring us againe, into a relaps, of denying the generall Resurrection? |
A02148 | But, if this be all; what great matter is it? |
A02148 | Can these words of his, be ever possibly reconciled? |
A02148 | Did Ahab prosper in seeking Naboths vineyard? |
A02148 | Did Iudas prossper, in betraying his Master? |
A02148 | Doe wee not count our selves sure, if we have a good mans word? |
A02148 | Doth he not by shewing the blessednes to bee the more: shew his owne iudgement to bee the lesse? |
A02148 | Durate,& vosmet rebus servate seeundis: Be constant to the end; and be assured, it will not be long, ere thou shalt raigne with Christ? |
A02148 | For doth not the chaffe grow up; and is it not brought up with the wheat? |
A02148 | For how can it bee tryed, whether they shall rise in the Iudgement, or no; if they come not to the Iudgement, where they are to be tryed? |
A02148 | For take the inference, as it is intended; and what can be plainer? |
A02148 | For what are the greatest assurances of all worldly things? |
A02148 | For what is apter to rise, than that which is light? |
A02148 | For what is mourning, but a deploring of misery? |
A02148 | For who knowes not, that a vagabond is properly one, that roames about from place to place, but is never in his proper place? |
A02148 | For, are not all men generally subject to crosses? |
A02148 | For, is it not a miserable delight when it may be threatned with this: Oli ● ● haec meminisse pigebit? |
A02148 | For, is it not an armour of steele, against all blowes of Fortune, and wrackes of time that I have hope continually to stand prompting me with this? |
A02148 | For, let the day past, be spent in all the pleasures of the world; yet what is yesterday to us to day? |
A02148 | For, was it not a tree, that bore the Fruite of life, in the Garden of Eden? |
A02148 | For, was not Mordec ai the good Jew, a scorner? |
A02148 | For, what hurt can hee take, by standing in their way? |
A02148 | For, what is godlinesse, but the love of God? |
A02148 | For, what is their present possession, but possession of the present? |
A02148 | Godlinesse indeed procures them to bee made like a Tree; but what makes them? |
A02148 | Godlinesse to be a meanes of prospering? |
A02148 | Himselfe a poore snake Jew, to Haman a Prince, and prime Favorite of great King Ahashuerosh? |
A02148 | How then is it true that they be judged already? |
A02148 | If we delight not, in the Law of God, which we know; how can we delight in God, whom we do not know? |
A02148 | If you love not your brother, whom you see; how can you love God, whom you doe not see? |
A02148 | Is it not a broad and a large way, that sinners may goe by, and no hurt to him at all? |
A02148 | Is it not a dolefull delight, when Extrema gaudii l ● ctus occupat; when sorrow followes it at the heeles? |
A02148 | Is it not a fearefull delight, when like a Magicians rodde, it is instantly turned into a Serpent? |
A02148 | Is it not a thing rather that will make us melancholly? |
A02148 | Is it not the tree, figured by the tree of life, in the Garden of Eden? |
A02148 | Is it not, that he durst not presume to use the name of Righteous; till it were first determined of in the Iudgement? |
A02148 | Is it, that as a good Mathematician, hee will not onely make a demonstration; but adde a corollary? |
A02148 | Is it, that he would not goe further, than the line of his similitude would leade him? |
A02148 | Is not the answer to this question, made by Christ himselfe? |
A02148 | It is not, that we may distinguish them by their chaire? |
A02148 | May not God himselfe bee said a scorner; of whom it is said; that he laughes the wicked to scorne; and hath them in derision? |
A02148 | May wee not bee bold to say, because it was more, than hee could doe? |
A02148 | Now therefore, O my soule, Why art thou cast downe; and why art thou so disquieted within mee? |
A02148 | One would thinke, it were want of counsell, that makes them ungodly: for who would be ungodly, if hee had counsell to direct him? |
A02148 | Or how at least, may we distinguish the vicious scorning, from that which is the vertue? |
A02148 | Or who knew the seven thousand that bowed not their knees to Baal; to be no Idolaters; till God, by his owne mouth made them knowne to Elias?) |
A02148 | Or, as if a goodly man, should neither walke, nor stand, nor sit? |
A02148 | Or, what more did Christ expresse of the Kingdome of heaven, by comparing it to a pearle; then by comparing it, to a graine of Mustard seed?) |
A02148 | Some scorne God himselfe; and are ready to answere, as Pharaoh answered Moses; What is God? |
A02148 | The similitude of a Tree, is sufficiently justified; but why would the Prophet expresse happinesse, by any similitude at all? |
A02148 | Well, be it so; Let the Prophet have his will; and let them bee like chaffe; what hurt take they by this? |
A02148 | What though thou flie as a bird, to the mountaines? |
A02148 | Wickednesse indeed, procures them to bee made like chaffe; but what makes them? |
A02148 | Will he be so a Prophet, as that hee will be no more than a Prophet; tell us onely of things to come; and not keepe his word, in things present? |
A02148 | a Tree, that for all its being planted by the water, is sure at last, to come to the fire? |
A02148 | a Tree, that is exposed to wind and weather? |
A02148 | a Tree, that is subiect to wormes and cankers? |
A02148 | a Tree, which growes out of the earth; and creepes into the Earth? |
A02148 | and as Christ, it seemes upon better advise did take it afterwards? |
A02148 | and did not Christ say, to the Thiefe on the Crosse; This day, thou shalt be with mee in Paradise; which yet was meant, but onely of his soule? |
A02148 | and doth it not mortifie in us, the life of all joy? |
A02148 | and he saw, that his similitude would not reach to Poena sensus? |
A02148 | and lest there should be defect, for want of witnesses; have we not a whole army of Martyrs; and Confessours innumerable? |
A02148 | and not deliver it rather in the very substance? |
A02148 | and that, David hath set a glosse upon it, to make us esteem more highly of it, than there is cause? |
A02148 | and till they had their station assigned them amongst the Saints? |
A02148 | and to sit in the Chaire of scorners; what is it, but to take a pride in sinne? |
A02148 | and to stand in the way of sinners; what is it, but the custome of sin? |
A02148 | and what care the wicked, whether they be like a Tree, or no: as long, as they may be like to something else, as well to be liked as a Tree? |
A02148 | and what is lighter than the chaffe? |
A02148 | and what is love, without delight? |
A02148 | and what more misery in all this, to the chaffe, then to the wheate it selfe? |
A02148 | and what will to day, be to us to morrow? |
A02148 | and when Harvest comes; are they not both reaped together; and both together, laid up into the Barne? |
A02148 | and when the Progeny of Iacob went downe into Aegypt; is it not said, that so many soules went downe, without making reckoning of their bodies? |
A02148 | and who would ever looke for such a blind reason from a Prophet? |
A02148 | and why then, should the Prophet shuffle them together; and as if the body were no body, say Blessed is the man? |
A02148 | as if vertue were onely Vitium fugere? |
A02148 | as though the word of a Prophet, were not of it selfe, an authority sufficient, to command our assent? |
A02148 | as though wee should know a godly man, by the postures of his body? |
A02148 | as though, we could know a godly man by Negatives? |
A02148 | but tell me rather, if godly men be not well advised, to make use of godlinesse? |
A02148 | for looke upon the wicked; doe they looke like chaffe? |
A02148 | for what operation can be in a Negative? |
A02148 | for, he can have no more, than the similitude will afford? |
A02148 | have good thoughts then; and good words; no promise of prospering? |
A02148 | he can looke for no more, than the tree hath it selfe; and where hath the tree, any resemblance of happinesse, in any thing, that is here exprest? |
A02148 | how canst thou give David cause to say: Why art thou cast downe, O my soule; and why art thou so disquieted within me? |
A02148 | how will hee hold fellowship with St. Paul, who makes a solemne protestation, that He beleeves the resurrection shall be, both of iust and uniust? |
A02148 | how will the Prophet avoide, the imputation of a Sadduce? |
A02148 | meanes hee not, they are like a Tree? |
A02148 | must this bee the height of a godly mans expectation, to be like a Tree? |
A02148 | or that godlinesse consisted in Negation? |
A02148 | or what needed, so great a caveat, to be given of it? |
A02148 | or who can thinke it fit, that trees and chaffe, should bee made companions? |
A02148 | seeing a tree hath boughes and branches aspiring towards heaven; united in one roote, and making one body? |
A02148 | shall not the consummation of peace, make us more blessed, than the inchoation made Simeon? |
A02148 | shall wee say, it must be a delighting, onely; or but only, chiefely? |
A02148 | should want blessings, and yet be perfectly blessed? |
A02148 | some in body; some in goods: some by enemies; some by friends; some in all; but all in some? |
A02148 | tell me if wicked men, be not ill advised, to make account of vanities? |
A02148 | to put him to his proofes, for every word hee speaks? |
A02148 | was it not a Tree, that bore the Lord of life, in the field of Golgotha? |
A02148 | what doe we thinke, would the world answer to such a question? |
A02148 | what joy; what excessive joy; what happinesse, what transcendent happinesse, will this be unto us? |
A02148 | what though thou dwell a while in the Tents of Mesek? |
A02148 | whether it thinke not these blessings, to be farre more worth, than all their guilded vanities? |
A02148 | who scorned so much, as to make a legge; or so much as to put off his hat to Haman? |
A02148 | why saith hee; The way of the ungodly shall perish; and saith not rather, The ungodly shall perish? |
A02148 | why would he not, rather tell us, what it is; than what it is like? |
A89565 | If God be with us, who can be against us? |
A89565 | Must we therefore sit downe, and despaire? |
A85979 | And how often have they sought peace and his Returne? |
A85979 | And may not a good King love his enemies, and hate his friends? |
A85979 | And what if the great Councell of the Kingdome seek to remove wicked Counsellers from the King, that usurpe their Office to themselves? |
A85979 | And what if they send forth to suppresse insurrections, and to pursue Delinquents, that fly the justice of that high Court? |
A85979 | But what did David when he was a subject, and Saul sought his life? |
A85979 | Doth it not pertain to them to do it, even ex Officio? |
A85979 | Good King David was charged with that; And may not a good King help the ungodly, and love them that hate the Lord? |
A85979 | Good King Jehoshaphat was charged with that by a Prophet of the Lord; And may not a good King be led to shed much innocent bloud? |
A85979 | If yee do well, shall yee not be accepted? |
A85979 | It is further said, that he is a good King, but may not a good King be led to do unwisely? |
A85979 | It will be said by our adversaries, that they pray too, and why may not they be heard as well as wee? |
A85979 | May not the State, and such a State that hath such power in their hands, doe more than one man, of what rank so ever? |
A85979 | Must the State and those that hold with them, learne of Delinquents that have deserved death, how to be for the King? |
A85979 | Must they learne of damme- swearers, that familiarly sweare themselves into hell? |
A85979 | Vbi est Deus Theodosij? |
A85979 | Were the second, the seventh, the fourth, better kept then in Westminster, then they are now? |
A85979 | or of perfidious Covenant- breakers, to whom an oath of God is no more than a collar to a Monkey, that he can slip at pleasure? |
A71251 | And accordingly, How soon did all things conspire to his destruction? |
A71251 | And how shall We escape the common reproach, who have been so unhappily united in a Country and Society, that has produced such Monsters? |
A71251 | And where is the Lord to be jealous for his Inheritance? |
A71251 | Behold, Is not the meat cut off before their Eyes? |
A71251 | Finally, To the Reproach of God''s Providence: Wherefore should they say among the People, Where is their God? |
A71251 | Has not the Almighty shewn himself in our defence, who but so lately has delivered us both from Popish and Fanatick Conspiracies? |
A71251 | How did our Cities become Solitary, that were full of people? |
A71251 | How do the beasts groan because they have no pasture? |
A71251 | How great is the demonstration of his mercy and loving- kindness, that we even now continue a Church and People, as at this day? |
A71251 | How loudly did his praises now sound from those Pulpits, that had bid defiance to Him and his Party heretofore? |
A71251 | How shall I recount the most flourishing of States brought to Desolation? |
A71251 | How shall I recount the wickedness of their process? |
A71251 | How was his Sacred Majesty almost caught in their traps? |
A71251 | Is there any one now present, who though unconcern''d in that black Parricide, is yet involved in any of those Principles that led to it? |
A71251 | Is this the People that hath the Lord for their God? |
A71251 | Let them ask where is their God, that have not known by what singular and unexspected means these designs were both Discover''d and Disappointed? |
A71251 | Only let our Repentance be as sincere, as our Crimes have been provoking; Who can tell but he may yet repent, return, and leave a blessing behind him? |
A71251 | Our Country, Once great among the Nations, How did she become Tributary, even to her own Vassals? |
A71251 | Their Vine laid waste? |
A71251 | Through what treachery did our Anointed first fall into their nets? |
A71251 | What Shouts, what Acclamations, when the cruel stroke was given that finished the Tragedy? |
A71251 | When at last the fatal Sentence was pronounced; How hardly were they brought to allow him any Assistance to prepare him for his death? |
A71251 | Where is now their God to pity them? |
A71251 | Wherefore should they say among the People, Where is their God? |
A71251 | With what Noise and Insults was all the action carried on? |
A71251 | and the Branches of their figtree made white? |
A52174 | AH Father Abraham, Pity me, Who with tormenting Flames am Stung, For pity whither should I Flee But to the Bowels whence I Sprung? |
A52174 | ARt thou forlorn of God, and com''st to me? |
A52174 | Am I a Child of Man and God? |
A52174 | Am I a Garden? |
A52174 | And dost imagine some fair Bridge to lie, Betwixt the White and Black- Eternity? |
A52174 | And dost thou surely come? |
A52174 | And dost thou surely quickly come? |
A52174 | And dost thou ● ook on such a One? |
A52174 | And must we Drink his Blood? |
A52174 | And slug I here? |
A52174 | And something hear?" |
A52174 | Are not thine Eyes most pure? |
A52174 | But what was Ever? |
A52174 | Can our pure Light with Smoak& Darkness dwell? |
A52174 | Come then my dearest, dearest Lord, My sweetest, surest Friend; Come, for I loath these Kedar Tents, Thy Fiery Chariots send: What have I here? |
A52174 | Dost all my Love and Sufferings slight? |
A52174 | FAirest of Fairs, if thus it be, O whither is he gone? |
A52174 | Fool, ask not where th''Almighty is, All Glory to Him give; Is not his Power fully prov''d, In suffring Thee to Live? |
A52174 | For why? |
A52174 | God spake the word, Peace and be still, My Sins, those Mutineers With speed went off and took their flight, Where now are all my fears? |
A52174 | God''s holy VVatchmen did Me find, Of whom I did enquire, Pray, can ye help my troubled Mind, VVhich doth a Christ desire? |
A52174 | HOW shall I Sing that Majesty Which Angels do admire? |
A52174 | Here in the dark and deep I grope, Who us''d to live above; Where is my Faith? |
A52174 | His Sins for Wages loudly Cry, Justice with dreadful sound Cries too, Cut down this fruitless Tree, VVhy cumbers it the Ground? |
A52174 | How am I Born, whilst sick of Love, In those blest Hands of his? |
A52174 | I hear a Joyful Sound, Surely I quickly come; Each word much sweetness doth distil, Like a full Honey- Comb: And dost thou come, my dearest Lord? |
A52174 | IF such an Envious Gulf there be, Yet, Father, lend an Ear to me: From Earth to Heaven a way is Pav''d; How else came Lazarus to be Sav''d? |
A52174 | IS not the Hand of God in this: Is not this End divine? |
A52174 | If one poor moment he be Left, He Sinks, and where is He? |
A52174 | Is he thy Wish who was thy Scorn before? |
A52174 | It was a waking Dream they would conclude,"A Juggle which our Senses did delude:"Or did we something see? |
A52174 | LOrd, What is Man, that Lump of Sin, Made up of Earth and Hell; Not fit to come within the Camp Where Holy Angels dwell? |
A52174 | Let the Redeemed of the Lord, Their thankful Voices raise: Can we be Dumb, whilst Angels Sing Our great Redeemers Praise? |
A52174 | Lord, I return''d at thy Command, VVhat wilt thou have me do? |
A52174 | My Bones and Senses, all must say, Lord, who is like to thee? |
A52174 | My Christ he is the Heaven of Heaven, My Christ what shall I call? |
A52174 | My Church, to Me the World is dross, And thou a Pearl of Price; And art thou Stray''d and as a Loss? |
A52174 | My Church, who art most New, most Fair, How Dear art thou and Sweet; In whom all Sweets compacted are, In whom all Graces meet? |
A52174 | My Coat is off, and how shall I Put on my Coat again? |
A52174 | My House is Fill''d and Feasted too; It is an House of Bread: How can I hear my Children Sing, And not Sing unto thee? |
A52174 | My Lord, whom should I fear but Thee, VVho am thy Creatures Fear? |
A52174 | My Voice, my Prayer, and my Complaint, That heard so willingly? |
A52174 | My heartless Dove, why dost thou faint, And hide thy self from me? |
A52174 | No Breasts on our small Sister grow, Nor is She yet Admir''d; What shall we for our Sister do, When she shall be desir''d? |
A52174 | O Daughter of the Mighty God, How comely are thy Feet? |
A52174 | O Fairest, let us know; VVherein does thine others out- shine, That thou dost Charge us so? |
A52174 | O God of Grace, who hast Restor''d Thine Image unto Me, Which by my Sins was quite defac''d, What shall I render Thee? |
A52174 | Pray tell me where and how? |
A52174 | Return, Return Apace That we may look with much delight Vpon thy Glorious Face: What in the Shulamite I pray, Do ye expect to see? |
A52174 | Seers, did ye my Saviour see? |
A52174 | Shall I, said I; forgoe my Christ, And so close up mine Eyes? |
A52174 | Shall Lazarus now be welcome to thy door? |
A52174 | Should I come o''re the Dusty Floor, My washed Feet to stain? |
A52174 | Should not I here thy Servant be, VVhose Creatures serve me here? |
A52174 | Since none can see thy Face and live, For me to die is best, Through Jordan''s streams who would not dive To Land at Canaan''s Rest? |
A52174 | So poor I am, so great thou art, The Lord, how can I Feast? |
A52174 | Tell me now from thy Breast, Where feeds the Flock? |
A52174 | The City- watch did light on me, Of whom I did enquire, In any Street, pray, Did ye see, The Man, whom I admire? |
A52174 | The World presents its glorious Shews, But what are those to me? |
A52174 | Thee, Lord, who still thy Church dost love, All Creatures must obey; And when for Thine thou dost arise, Their En''mies, where are they? |
A52174 | Their earnest Cries do pierce the Skies, And shall I silent be? |
A52174 | Then, O North, Awake, and on it Breath; Thy quickning Breath will summon forth The Odours from Beneath: Am I a Garden? |
A52174 | Thousands of Thousands stand Around Thy Throne, O God, most High; Ten Thousand times Ten Thousand sound Thy Praise; but who am I? |
A52174 | Thy carriage how discreet? |
A52174 | VVhat Morn looks forth? |
A52174 | VVhat Sun may yonder be? |
A52174 | VVhat''s your thick Clay? |
A52174 | VVhatever is not Hell it self, For me it is too good: But must we Eat the Flesh of Christ? |
A52174 | VVhere God doth dwell, sure Heav''n is there, And Singing there must be; Since, Lord, thy Presence makes my Heaven, VVhom should I sing but Thee? |
A52174 | VVho is, said they, this Lord of thine? |
A52174 | VVhy should not Patience make me sing, VVhen Hell would make me roar? |
A52174 | Vast Numbers from his Word at first did flow, And must his Word pass for a Cypher now? |
A52174 | WHat Dog is this that dares Presume on Me? |
A52174 | WHat shall I Render to my God, For all his Gifts to Me? |
A52174 | What Eye e''re pierc''d th''Almighties Sacred Breast? |
A52174 | What Jewel is this Dear of thine, O Fairest, let us know; Wherein does thine Others out- shine, That thou dost charge us so? |
A52174 | What Voices or what Visions would you have? |
A52174 | What are Thorns in th''Account of Men, Vnto the Lilly bright? |
A52174 | What are the Fairest Daughters, when My Love appears in sight? |
A52174 | What are the common Trees o''th''Wood Unto the Apple Tree? |
A52174 | What can I tell thee then but Misery? |
A52174 | What does the word[ Eternal] signifie? |
A52174 | What have I in this Barren Land? |
A52174 | What is a Spirit? |
A52174 | What is the Rich and Noblest Blood, My lovely Lord, to Thee? |
A52174 | What smoaky Pillar strait from hence Out of that Desart Rises; Perfum''d with Myrrh and Frankincense, And all the Merchants Spices? |
A52174 | What then were all the Creatures Smiles, When the Creator frown''d? |
A52174 | What thing is there that I can wish, But Thee in Heav''n above? |
A52174 | What''s Infinity?" |
A52174 | When once the Hour of thy Design Hath on these Captives Shone, When they are call''d and own''d for Thine, What shall be further done? |
A52174 | When shall our Souls mount up to Thee, Most Holy, Just, and True, To eat that Bread, and drink that Wine; VVhich is for ever New? |
A52174 | Where are those Baits on which my Lusts did prey,"The Price of which I cast my self away?" |
A52174 | Where is its Noon- Tyde Rest? |
A52174 | Where is my Hope? |
A52174 | Where is my wonted Love? |
A52174 | Where''s now my Pomp and Pride, my Feasts& Sports,"Whose Chains detain''d me from the Sacred Courts?" |
A52174 | Who would not fear thy Searching Eye, Witness to all that''s true? |
A52174 | Why should I stray, and lose my way, Till I at last do Fall Among thy Fellows Flocks, as they Themselves do proudly call? |
A52174 | Ye know not what''s within; Whom God doth love, how dare ye hate? |
A52174 | how it twinges and torments his Eyes? |
A52174 | what Moon is there? |
A52174 | where doth it move? |
A62715 | An ipsi a nobis exierunt, an nos ab ipsis? |
A62715 | And has it not happened thus amongst us, by reason of some factious Doctrines that have been far and wide dispersed? |
A62715 | And if the ear shall say, because I am not the eye I am not of the body, is it therefore not of the body? |
A62715 | And if the foot shall say, because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? |
A62715 | And is not this the great Promise to support the spirits of the true Worshippers? |
A62715 | And why should Gilead abide beyond Iordan, and Dan remain in ships? |
A62715 | Are they gone out from Us, or We from them? |
A62715 | Are you nothing moved by the judgments which have followed upon our dissentions, and do still lye upon them as a just punishment? |
A62715 | But did ever the Children of Israel cry unto the Lord, and he did not hear them? |
A62715 | But if these members separate from the body, can each member which is separated subsist by it self? |
A62715 | But if we pray to God for divers things, such indeed as are contrary and inconsistent with one another, what returns can we expect? |
A62715 | But if we remain in unity;[ Quid faciunt in hâc civitate duo altaria?] |
A62715 | But now if he look in here, what shall he see but a despicable emptiness? |
A62715 | Can we ask it with any fervour, whilst we have reserves about the terms, whereupon we do desire it? |
A62715 | Canst not thou serve God with so much purity and power amongst us, as in separate Assemblies? |
A62715 | Did they ever murmur and he did not plague them? |
A62715 | Do not the same pray against the peace and settlement which they do pretend to desire? |
A62715 | Doth it nothing move you to anticipate Christs intention, which is our Union, and to further Satans, which is our division? |
A62715 | Fourthly, Then we have the Answer of the Shulamite: what shall ye see in the Shulamite? |
A62715 | God is with us, who can stand against us? |
A62715 | Hast thou any power to add unto the Ministry of the word? |
A62715 | Have we forgotten our deliverences from the power of Spain and Austria, and the Pope of Rome? |
A62715 | Is not all Religion( or at least the power of it) become contemptible? |
A62715 | Is not this the reason therefore of such a distracted State? |
A62715 | Let us ask the several Hereticks of our times; what Heretick do you find that denieth Iesus to be the Christ? |
A62715 | O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you? |
A62715 | O thou that hast turned thus aside, hast thou any light more than others? |
A62715 | Return, return, ô Shulamite, return, return, that we may look upon thee: what shall ye see in the Shulamite? |
A62715 | Secondly, for the person called therefore, and called the Shulamite, who or what was she? |
A62715 | That such clouds of blackness are impendent over us? |
A62715 | That the Heavens are as brass, which our divided prayers can not pierce? |
A62715 | The Answer of the Shulamite: what will ye see in the Shulamite? |
A62715 | We are the darker for the want of it: Hast thou any good affections more than others? |
A62715 | What a bustle have these opinions made throughout the Land, rending in the Body before they rent from it? |
A62715 | What could follow but a miserable inflammation, when there were subjects apt to receive such opinions as some of these? |

A85485 | Can the best of us now come neere to Abraham, other Patriarks and Prophets, in knowledge, faith, parience and other like graces? |

A85485 | If the doers thereof should plead them before God, what other answer could they receive, but this, Who hath required this at your hand? |
A85485 | If they say, the same, what need is there that it should be offered up again? |
A85485 | Is it not by experience found, that such proper and peculiar Governours are needfull and usefull, and so good in their severall sphears? |
A85485 | It is to our unspeakable advantage and benefit; and shall not God have the praise thereof? |

A85485 | Should not we then be thankfull, even for the times wherein we live? |
A85485 | This Question( What shall the receiving of them be but life from the dead?) |
A85485 | This emphaticall Interrogation, How much more shall these, which be the naturall branches, he graffed into their own Olive- tree? |

A85443 | 7. Who art thou, O great mountaine? |
A85443 | And what follows? |
A85443 | And why did God doe all this for him? |
A85443 | David was afraid of God that day, How( sayes he) shall I bring the Ark of God home to me? |
A85443 | For the first,( the Erecting of it) Did he use might, or power, or an Armie( as it is varied in the margent) to conquer the world by? |
A85443 | For to what end was this mountaine thus removed? |
A85443 | Now with what doth Christ comfort himselfe before he was to dye? |
A85443 | Who shall not feare thee, O Lord, and glorifie thy Name? |
A85443 | You see how contemptuously he here speaks, of the opposition made;[ Who art thou, O great mountaine?] |
A85443 | though great in their owne eyes, yet as nothing in his: He speaks as a Giant unto a Pigmee, Who art thou? |
A85443 | we reade of a perfect victory over the Beast: And whereas before it had beene said of his Holinesse the Pope, Who is like unto the Beast? |

A40658 | 15. to be a busie- body in other mens matters, how great is the offence, to be busie in the Mysteries of the God of Heaven? |
A40658 | 24. Who could more, or more justly have inveighed against Saul then David? |
A40658 | Am I, say they, my sonnes keeper? |
A40658 | And Boaz said unto the serv ● nt which was appointed over the Reapers, Whose is this Maid? |
A40658 | And I, whither shall I cause my shame to goe? |
A40658 | And doth it not come within the compasse of the breach of the second Commandement, Thou shalt not bow downe and worship them? |
A40658 | And they said, Is not this Naomi? |
A40658 | And where wroughtest thou? |
A40658 | Are all then to appeare before God, when the Bookes are opened? |
A40658 | Are not all things ordered by Gods immediate Providence, without which a Sparrow lighteth not o ● the ground? |
A40658 | Are there any more sonnes in my Wombe, that they may be your Husbands? |
A40658 | Are we all to be tryed in the Day when the Bookes shall be opened? |
A40658 | Art thou afflicted with povertie? |
A40658 | Art thou in sicknesse? |
A40658 | Art thou then a Widower, who desirest to doe mercie to thy dead Wife; or a Widow, to thy dead Husband; or a Child, to thy deceased Parent? |
A40658 | Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? |
A40658 | But Naomi said, Turne againe my daughters: for what cause will you goe with me? |
A40658 | But a wounded spirit who can beare? |
A40658 | But here ariseth a question, Whether Elimelech did well to go from Bethlehem- Judah, into the Land of Moab? |
A40658 | But here ariseth a question, Whether these matches were lawfull? |
A40658 | But methinks I hear the Widows and Orphants crying unto me, as the Souldiers to Iohn Bapti ● ●, But what shall we do? |
A40658 | But some may say, Why did not Boaz bestow a quantitie of Corne upon Ruth ▪ and so send her home unto her Mother? |
A40658 | But some will say, Why doth God suffer the Foundations to come so neere to be destroyed? |
A40658 | But the very haires of your head are all numbred: And where is their number summed up? |
A40658 | But why is there here no mention of the Living? |
A40658 | But, where is He, say some? |
A40658 | Can God be in so long a sleep, yea, so long a Lethargie, as patiently to permit the Ruines ● hereof? |
A40658 | Contrarie to which, how many be there, ● hat thinke themselves priviledged from being good, because they are great? |
A40658 | Did his intelligence or intellectuals deceive him, to be thus mistaken? |
A40658 | Doe we desire then to have dutifull Children, and faithfull Servants hereafter? |
A40658 | Doe we then desire to gaine credit to our Countrey, prayse to our People, honour to our Nation, reput ● to our Religion? |
A40658 | Doth God punish thee for thy sinne with a personall punishment? |
A40658 | Give me leave Neighbour Elimelech to say unto thee, as the Angel did to Hagar, whence commest thou? |
A40658 | Have I not charged the servants, that they touch thee not? |
A40658 | Have I not commanded the servants, that they should not touch thee? |
A40658 | Here ariseth a Question; How can one shew favour to the dead, who being past sense, are not capable of kindnesse or crueltie? |
A40658 | How comes the holy Spirit to use this word, Hap? |
A40658 | How comes the holy Spirit to use this word; a prophane terme, which deserves to be banisht out of the mouthes of all Christians? |
A40658 | How commeth it to passe, that thy Rivers of Oyl are now dammed up? |
A40658 | How contrarie is this to the practice of the world? |
A40658 | How faireth it with the Bethlehemites my Neig ● bours? |
A40658 | How many in this kinde are cruell to the dead? |
A40658 | How many now- adayes make Deeds of Gift of themselves, without the knowledge and consent of their Parents? |
A40658 | How oft would I have gathered thee together, as an Hen gathereth her Chickens under her wings, and ye would not? |
A40658 | How then commeth it to passe, that many men and women may take up the words of Rebecca, Seeing it is so, why am I thus? |
A40658 | If Envie, and Covetousnesse, and Idlenesses were not the hinderances, how might one Christian reciprocally be a helpe unto another? |
A40658 | If a man be found slaine in the Land, lying in the field, and it be not knowne who slew him; the Elders of the next Citie what should they doe? |
A40658 | If he looks on, and yet doth ● ot see these Fou ● dations when de ● troyed; where then is his Omnisciency? |
A40658 | If he seeth it, can helpe it, and will not, where then is his Goodnesse and Mercy? |
A40658 | If the Foundations be destroyed, what can the Righteous doe? |
A40658 | If the Foundations be destroyed, what can the Righteous doe? |
A40658 | If the Foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous doe? |
A40658 | Is it not a pettie, a small, exile courtesie, and the hearts of poore people shall be comforted thereby? |
A40658 | Is it not at the best some diminution and abatement of his Goodnesse? |
A40658 | Is it possible that the Found ● tions of Religion should be destroyed? |
A40658 | Is not that sentence most true, God stretcheth from end to end strongly, and disposeth all things sweetly? |
A40658 | Is not the ● and of Joab with thee in all this? |
A40658 | Is there any Age so old, wherein a man or woman may not marry? |
A40658 | Is this she which even now was so promising in her words, and so p ● ssionate in her weeping? |
A40658 | It is not said, What can the Righteous say? |
A40658 | It is not said, What can the Righteous suffer? |
A40658 | It is not said, What can they thinke? |
A40658 | It may be objected, Why no mention of the Wife herein? |
A40658 | NO MAN? |
A40658 | Neither can such Fathers be excused, who never say to their Children, as David to Adoniah, Why doest thou so? |
A40658 | None to examine them, as Eliab did David, Wherefore art thou come downe hither? |
A40658 | None to question them, as Naomi did Ruth, Where wroughtest thou to day? |
A40658 | Now as for young Ministers, they have not this advantage, to speake unto young people in the phrase of Boaz, Hearest thou, my Daughter? |
A40658 | Observe in the words; What? |
A40658 | On the other side, hath God afflicted us with Zibahs to our Servants, and with Absalons to our Sonnes? |
A40658 | One may say of it as Lot of Zoar; Is it not a little one, and my soule shall live? |
A40658 | Or was the Providence of God solely confined to his people of Israel, that so Ruth being a stranger of Moab, must be left to the adventure of hazard? |
A40658 | Our Saviour said to the I ● mes; Many good workes have I shewed you from the Father; for which of them goe you about to stone me? |
A40658 | Question, Is it lawfull for us to lissen, hearken, and enquire after matters of forraigne Countries? |
A40658 | Rest, how commeth it to prove my Purgatorie, my Hell, my cause of restlesse I orment? |
A40658 | Secondly, A sad Question propounded, What can the Righteous doe? |
A40658 | Seeing this counsell was both good in it selfe, and good at this time, why doth David seem so angry and displeased thereat? |
A40658 | Shall I take my Wheat, my Rye, and my Barley, which I have prepared for my Family, and give it to the Poore, which I know not whence they be? |
A40658 | Shall livelesse pieces of Wood answer the Names which men impose upon them, and shall not reasonable soules doe the same? |
A40658 | Shall not the Husband blush to see his Wife, which is the weaker Vessel in Nature, to be the stronger Vessel in Grace? |
A40658 | Shall not the Master be ashamed to see that his Man, whose place on Earth is to come behinde him, in Pietie towards Heaven to goe before him? |
A40658 | So they went both untill they came to Bethlehem, and when they came to Bethlehem, all the Citie was moved at them, and they said, Is not this Naomi? |
A40658 | So when any affliction befalleth us, let us presently have recourse unto God, and say, Is not the hand of the Lord the principall cause hereof? |
A40658 | Some might speak out of admiration, strange, wonderfull is this she who once was so wealthie? |
A40658 | Some will say, How is it possible, that Birds of so different a feather should all so flye together, as to meet in the Character of David? |
A40658 | Some will say, What is meant here by House? |
A40658 | Stranger? |
A40658 | The New Translation What can the righteous doe? |
A40658 | The Old Translation What have the righteous done? |
A40658 | The Righteous can, will, and shall suffer much; but alas if the Foundations be destroyed, What can the Righteous doe? |
A40658 | Then her Mother in law said unto her, Where hast thou gleaned to day? |
A40658 | Then her Mother in law said unto her, Where hast thou gleaned to day? |
A40658 | Thinke they may; But what can the Righteous doe? |
A40658 | Thou 〈 ◊ 〉 my s ● ittings, put my teares into thy Bottle; are no ● all these things written in thy Booke? |
A40658 | Was not this too much honour to give to any mortall Creature? |
A40658 | What Can the Righteous? |
A40658 | What a deale of stirre is there in the World for Civill Precedencie, and Prioritie? |
A40658 | What can the Righteous? |
A40658 | What can the Righteous? |
A40658 | What hurt or harme had it been, if they had met her in another field? |
A40658 | What if the Earth had brought forth Thornes and Thistles? |
A40658 | What if the Heathen had superstitiously worshipped the Hoast of Heaven? |
A40658 | What is a man profited, if he shall gaine the whole world, ● nd lose his owne s ● ule? |
A40658 | What is the rate of Corne? |
A40658 | What maketh Tale- bearers so many, and their Tales so long, but that such persons are sensible, that others are pleasingly affected with their talke? |

A40658 | What the value of Wine? |
A40658 | What then is to be done in this case, to make man capable of Gods discourse? |
A40658 | What, my Sonnes? |
A40658 | What, would David depart from God, after his deliverance? |
A40658 | When he had said to Peter the third time, Lovest thou me? |
A40658 | Where had Elijah lived? |
A40658 | Who can hinder it, if men of their Girdles and Garters make Halters to hang themselves? |
A40658 | Who hath more golden Sentences then Seneca against the Contempt of Gold? |
A40658 | Who then is able to hold out Suit ● ith God in the Court of Heaven? |
A40658 | Who will looke, that Water should ● low from a drie Fountain, Grapes grow on a withered Vine, Fruit flourish on a dead Figge- tree? |
A40658 | Whose is this Maid? |
A40658 | Why Him and Them? |
A40658 | Why Naomi, Why didst thou quench the zeale of thy daughters, which proffered themselves so willingly to goe with thee? |
A40658 | Why is the Number altered? |
A40658 | Would he use him as Travellers a Bush? |
A40658 | Would ye tarry for them? |
A40658 | Would you be deferred for them from taking of Husbands? |
A40658 | Yea, but one may say, How came Ruth to know who was the God of Naomi? |
A40658 | Yet as David, when Achish asked him, where he had been? |
A40658 | a Famine: Where? |
A40658 | and what, persons of my wombe? |
A40658 | and what, the Sonnes of my desire? |
A40658 | and whether goest thou? |
A40658 | but, Where can such a Righteous man be found? |

A37032 | How usefull was he in God''s work, in building the Temple, ordering all the Levits,& c? |
A37032 | I am in bed, and my children with me, trouble me not,& c. Yea, how can I put them on? |
A37032 | I have put off my coat, how shall I put it on? |
A37032 | I have washed my feet, how shall I defile them? |
A37032 | If any should ask, how makes this last part of the verse for her scope, in removing the offence before these weak beginners? |
A37032 | If it be asked here, what we should judge of these watchmen, if they were tender or not? |
A37032 | If it be asked how she discerned it? |
A37032 | If it be asked, what this imports? |
A37032 | If it be asked, whether that be single love, which loves Christ for his Ointments? |
A37032 | If it be asked, why he insists on particulars in this commendation? |
A37032 | If it be asked, why her giving of two hundred to the keepers, is subjoined to the giving of him a thousand? |
A37032 | If it be asked, why she turnes over this commendatien to him in the second person, Thou art,& c? |
A37032 | If it be enquired in what sense we call this Song figurative, whether as Typical or Allegorical? |
A37032 | If it be partly Typical, how is this Type to be made up? |
A37032 | If it should be asked, Why is this sinful distemper of hers registrat, and put upon record? |
A37032 | If it should be asked, why she descends into particulars, especially now, considering her deserted case? |
A37032 | If so, by what rule would we know, if, or how they did understand them? |
A37032 | In a word then, the sense and scope of the whole is this, Would ye( saith she) have my beloved, or know where he is that ye may seek him? |
A37032 | In the manner of expression here used, who is she? |
A37032 | Is he not away? |
A37032 | Is it likely that he is yours, when he is so far away? |
A37032 | Is it the worse, that it look like the Gospel? |
A37032 | Is there not another way of inquiring after him, than this lazy formal way? |
A37032 | Is this thy kindnesse to thy friend? |
A37032 | It imports an abhorrency and indignation at that evil, of being carried away a whooring from Christ, Why( saith she) should I be,& c? |
A37032 | It may allude thus, what is to be seen in her? |
A37032 | It may be asked then, When are we to account a place of Scripture Allegorick, and are we to seek out some other meaning, than what at first appeareth? |
A37032 | It was before, If ye stir or awake: Here it is( as the margent reads from the Original) why will ye stir or awake? |
A37032 | It''s brought- in here to remove that objection, if he be thine, where is he? |
A37032 | It''s certain, that many Scriptures are Allegorically set down, and is their authority therefore any way lesse than that of other Scriptures? |
A37032 | It''s clear, at first looking upon the words, that he speaks in the 2. verse, and who else can be thought to speak in the first? |
A37032 | May not these examples of David, Solomon, Peter,& c. lay your pride, and put you to your arms, and necessitate you to be upon your watch? |
A37032 | My soul shall be filled as with marrow and fatnesse, how? |
A37032 | Next, the manner of the expression is by way of question, and admiration, Who is this? |
A37032 | No common sight: or, it is to meet with an objection that strangers may have, what delightsome thing is to be seen in her, that seems so despicable? |
A37032 | Now the way she takes to be helped in it, is the putting up this petition to Christ, What shall we do? |
A37032 | O thou fairest among women, whether is thy Beloved turned aside? |
A37032 | Or can it be equalled? |
A37032 | Or, are not such Doctrine ●( if they follow from it) the better& more comfortable? |
A37032 | Or, she her self might object, what is in me worth the seeing? |
A37032 | Or, what is come of them? |
A37032 | Or, what is to be accounted of the losse of them? |
A37032 | Return, return, O Shulamite, return, return, that we may look upon thee: what will ye see in the Shulamite? |
A37032 | She had told them that her Beloved was withdrawn; Now they( when convinced of his worth) ask, whether? |
A37032 | The Directions are two, Would thou know, saith he, how to be kept out of snares? |
A37032 | The daughters of Ierusalem come in speaking to the Brides commendation, in the first part of the fifth verse, Who is this, say they,( or, who is she?) |
A37032 | The first verse contains two pieces of the Brides commendation, The first part that is commended is the feet, How beautiful are thy feet? |
A37032 | The midst thereof is paved with love: What can this be? |
A37032 | The opening of the particular reasons will clear this; The first is, I have put off my coat, and the conclusion is, how can I put it on? |
A37032 | The qualification of her suit is, What shall we do for her, in the day that she shall be spoken for? |
A37032 | The question is proposed by way of comparison, and doubled, What is thy Beloved more than another beloved? |
A37032 | The question propounded by them is, what is thy Beloved? |
A37032 | The scope will confirm this: for, is there any thing that makes Christ more lovely and admirable than his love? |
A37032 | The suit is, What shall we do for our sister? |
A37032 | The third thing is the manner of expression, which heightens all this: It''s expressed with an How? |
A37032 | The watch- men that go about the City, found me: to whom I said, Saw ye him whom my soul loveth? |
A37032 | The words may be looked upon as the preventing of an objection, for it might be said, If Christ be yours, where is he? |
A37032 | These are the deserved epithets of his actions: In sum, it is, as if she had said, Ask ye what my beloved is, more than others? |
A37032 | This is the meaning then, why lyes thou in this discouraged, decayed and comfortlesse condition? |
A37032 | This then is the sense and scope, O Professors( saith the Bride) would ye see a stately sight? |
A37032 | Thou shall say( to wit, when the sudden change comes) Who hath begotten me these? |
A37032 | To remove an objection that might be made, if any should say, What needs all this rejoicing? |
A37032 | Was it ever equalled? |
A37032 | We have a little sister, and she hath no brests: what shall we do for our sister in the day when she shall be spoken for? |
A37032 | What Christ is, and the necessity of praying for others, is a suitable subject of discourse in Christian- fellowship; what is Christ? |
A37032 | What hearing of P ● ayer? |
A37032 | What is our hope( saith the Apostle) or crown of rejoicing, are not even ye in the presence of our Lord Iesus Christ, at his coming? |
A37032 | What is thy Beloved more than another beloved, O thou fairest among Women? |
A37032 | What more is this Allegory of a Marriage, to be accounted Typical, then other places of Scripture, where this same manner of expression is used? |
A37032 | What other Song( even of the most holy Men) can be compared to this? |
A37032 | What other spirit can so speak of Christ and the Church? |
A37032 | What perfections are in Christ( as there are none wanting) they are in him in their perfection: What unspeakable commendation is here? |
A37032 | What presence and clearnesse had he gotten by the Lord''s appearing to him? |
A37032 | What then should she do( might it be said) seing she is so unmeet to converse with him, or look out to the view of any that looks on? |
A37032 | Where are thy bowels? |
A37032 | Wherewith is he to kisse? |
A37032 | Whether is thy Beloved gone? |
A37032 | Who of you, will claim to Solomon''s knowledge, experience, or priviledges? |
A37032 | Who will have a heart to fit Christ''s call? |
A37032 | Why are the same parts named, as eyes, hair,& c. and yet the commendation is different from what it was, for the most part? |
A37032 | Why is the way he followed before changed? |
A37032 | Why is this commendation inlarged beyond the former, having moe particulars in it? |
A37032 | Why weepest thou? |
A37032 | and continued thus eminent for many years, even till he was well stricken in years, and then fell so foully? |
A37032 | and how displeased is he with many errours, that the world thinks little of? |
A37032 | and how happy are they, who are effectualy called to the marriage of the Lamb? |
A37032 | and how many things are there, to plead for that? |
A37032 | and if he be away, why claims thou interest in him? |
A37032 | and that afterward himself made use of it, for his edification and comfort? |
A37032 | and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed? |
A37032 | and was not Christs way such to them also, as it is to us? |
A37032 | and what love appears in all his promises? |
A37032 | and what piece of work of his, but the Covenant of Redemption, is so lined and stuffed with love? |
A37032 | and who can do great works, such as he hath done? |
A37032 | are there not moe means, in the use of which I may seek Christ? |
A37032 | arise, cast us not off? |
A37032 | how unsuitable to that which was his carriage? |
A37032 | if it be eternal, by reason of sinners constant slighting of him now in the offers of his grace, what desperate anguish will it produce? |
A37032 | is translated Bride, Can a Bride forget her attire? |
A37032 | might she say, whence shall it come, seing I am so black and loathsome? |
A37032 | might they not be better in plain words? |
A37032 | or if they do, who will be able to answer it, when he shall reckon with them? |
A37032 | or might not such plain Scriptures be rather expounded, which bear such Doctrines with lesse difficulty? |
A37032 | or the beloved of another? |
A37032 | sets out Christ positively, and comparatively: Do you ask( saith she) what my Beloved is? |
A37032 | that cometh up from the wilderness, leaning on her beloved? |
A37032 | they say not, where is our Beloved? |
A37032 | to shew her duty,& c. and is not that same the scope here also? |
A37032 | what is thy Beloved more than another beloved, that thou dost so charge us? |
A37032 | where to find him? |

A47437 | Is it not an amazing thing, to see Jesus made a Curse to raise Sinners from under the Curse to eternal Bl ● ● ● edness? |
A47437 | Is not that a wonderful thing which Non- plusses all the Wisdom of Men and Angels? |
A47437 | Moreover, What Love is this? |

A47437 | and above the Reason or Understanding of men, though of the deepest Judgment, Wisdom, and Knowledge, that ever lived upon the Earth? |
A47437 | and is it not strange and wonderful that vile Sinners should be made Righteous by the Righteousness of another? |
A47437 | and that God should purchase the Church with his own Blood? |
A47437 | and that a Man should Dye, and yet be capable to raise himself from the Dead? |

A62648 | But Secondly, Suppose fear alone could do it; how comes the mind of Man to be subject to such groundless and unreasonable fears? |

A62648 | Wouldst thou be truly wise? |
A62648 | Wouldst thou then be truly knowing? |

A66354 | And can you be so vile as to think God did all this that you might commit Abominations? |
A66354 | And that he obtained a Victory under such great disadvantages at the Boyn? |
A66354 | And were there not some Faithful Godly Praying Protestants in those places as well as among us? |
A66354 | But can any of you imagine that you are concerned for the good of your Nation, and not divert its Misery by opposing those Sins which do procure it? |
A66354 | But if Virtue should spring up and Wickedness hide the head, how happy wilt thou find thy self in having contributed thereto? |
A66354 | Can any of you doubt whether a Man can be God''s Servant who hath no Zeal for his Glory? |
A66354 | Can any wonder that reproachful Lies pursue you in this Enterprize? |
A66354 | Can you forget what you so lately felt, as the effect of your former Sins? |
A66354 | Had your Dangers no Voice because they are past? |
A66354 | Hath God waited longer on them than you? |
A66354 | Hath he done all this to make you capable of Offending him more, or to oblige you in Gratitude to Reform? |
A66354 | Have we past under less methods of Amendment than they? |
A66354 | His Sacred Name is despised by common Oaths: his Vengeance plaid with by Curses? |
A66354 | How can you persist in provoking a God so great, and sinning against a God so merciful and kind? |
A66354 | How will it revive thy years to see the Blessed Effect of this change of things? |
A66354 | Is God''s Honour more concerned in our Ruin than in theirs? |
A66354 | Moreover, Love to Men is an Essential part of Godliness, for wherein are we like God who is Love, if Love be a Stranger to us? |
A66354 | Must not Guilt lie on that Man who lives in the Stated Omission hereof? |
A66354 | Must not the Zeal of all such kindle as Phineas? |
A66354 | Need you fear your Opposers? |
A66354 | Now if such considerations remove not your Indifferency, and secure you not against Fear and Idleness in this great Design, what will? |
A66354 | Now wherein is God more dishonoured than By open flagitious Crimes? |
A66354 | Now who is a Keeper of the Law? |
A66354 | Or can a Man of that Character sit easie under this Guilt from day to day? |
A66354 | Or that such a multitude of well Equipped Souldiers were Routed by a few undisciplin''d Enniskillen men? |
A66354 | Ought you to despond as if too seeble to carry on this Work? |
A66354 | Was it not our God that Saved this City from being Burnt by the enraged Enemy, at his Return? |
A66354 | Was it not the Lord''s doing that our King fell not by that Cannon Ball which wounded his Shoulder? |
A66354 | Was not God seen in the amazing Retreat of those Weak, Ill provided, Diseased Forces with Duke Schomberg? |
A66354 | Were their Insults and Threatnings so agreeable as to leave no Impression? |
A66354 | What have many ascribed your Debaucheries and Ruin to, more than these? |
A66354 | What is it to me, if he Swear or be Drunk? |
A66354 | Will not your Sins cry as loud in God''s Ears? |
A66354 | Yea, do not all of you profess to be so? |
A66354 | and commence a new Rebellion against himself? |
A66354 | are not the men God employed to Correct them, the Popish Enemies to God''s Cause as well as ours? |
A66354 | how miserable will the Portion of such be found at last? |
A66354 | or should any call you severe when you stop Men from destroying themselves and Nation? |
A66354 | or that your past Calamities do not remain a lively Caution against persisting in those Sins? |
A66354 | that you might return to you Vomit? |
A66354 | will you not Reform those Immoralities which provoked a Merciful God to disarm you, and leave you naked in your Enemies Hands? |
A66354 | would not you be found among the Loyal Subjects and Faithful Servants of your Creator and Redeemer? |
A77506 | & c.] In the next verse he corrects and answers himselfe, How can it cease seeing the Lord hath given it a charge?] |
A77506 | A Resolution by way of answer to his former Expostulation, How can it be quiet?] |
A77506 | Alas what are they? |
A77506 | And O who knowes whether the Lord hath given such a Charge to this Sword of his which is now come amongst us? |
A77506 | And being so, who or what shall oppose this Sword? |
A77506 | And doe we so apprehend and beleeve it to be? |
A77506 | And if their Mercies be cruell, how great is their Cruelty? |
A77506 | And is it so? |
A77506 | And is it this that the Sword cometh about? |
A77506 | And shall wee fall downe before him, humbling our selves at his foote- stoole, and shall hee not have compassion on us? |
A77506 | And what Word was this? |
A77506 | And what a Sword is his? |
A77506 | And what? |
A77506 | And who knoweth whether God hath given it a Commission to goe through the Land? |
A77506 | And why could he not? |
A77506 | And will you know the reason of it? |
A77506 | As our Saviour saith of the Eye which is the light of the Body; If that be darke how great is that darkenesse? |
A77506 | But alas upon what ground? |
A77506 | But what then? |
A77506 | Certainely the Charge which God hath given it, it will observe, and who shall say unto it, bee quiet? |
A77506 | How can it be quiet? |
A77506 | How shall it be diverted? |
A77506 | I will surely deliver thee, and thou shalt not fall by the Sword: Why? |
A77506 | Is this Sword the Sword of the Lord? |
A77506 | Ninoveh the Imperiall City of the Assyrian Monarch, for Circuit, People, Walles, Towers, Fortifications, all incredible; yet,( what saith the Lord?) |
A77506 | Now in this case what shall wee doe? |
A77506 | Now would we know what to doe? |
A77506 | O thou Sword of the Lord, how long will it be ere thou be quiet? |
A77506 | O thou Sword of the Lord, how long will it be ere thou be quiet? |
A77506 | O thou Sword of the Lord, how long will it be ere thou be quiet? |
A77506 | Our Fathers Sword? |
A77506 | Shall the Sword devoure for ever? |
A77506 | So, if the very bowels( the proper seat of tendernesse and compassion) be cruell, ô how great is that cruelty? |
A77506 | The Lord God, the Lord of Hoastes hath drawne his Sword, who shall not tremble at it? |
A77506 | The Lyon hath roared who will not feare? |
A77506 | The Poore; what the World''s Poore, such as are outwardly Poore? |
A77506 | True, it is in the hands of men, managed( as we thinke) by them, but alas what are they? |
A77506 | and in the hand of our Father? |
A77506 | how shall it be opposed? |
A77506 | how shall it be stayed, quieted? |
A77506 | how shall it be stayed? |
A77506 | knowest thou not, that it will be bitter in the latter end? |
A77506 | shall Women be exempted? |
A89582 | Doth it not speak to them, as Moses to the two Israelites, Sirs, you are brethren, doe not fall out one with another: Do not wrong one another? |
A89582 | O Lord God of Israel, why is it come to passe this day that there should bee one Tribe lacking in Israel? |
A89582 | kill, kill, kill; but how shall this be executed? |
A89582 | what good could ever have come of it? |
A89582 | what upon earth brings forth so cursed fruits, as warre amongst the people of God? |
A89582 | who is able to thinke of it without horrour? |
A89582 | why is it come to passe, that the Army that hath done so worthily is destroyed? |
A89577 | 9. rejoice greatly O Daughters of Zion, shout for joy O Daughter of Jerusalem; what is the matter? |
A89577 | First, if to have a David to be our King, is such a blessednesse? |
A89577 | If you demand what hope is there of it; or what further means may we use for the attaining of it? |
A89577 | Thus should our souls doe; Honourable and Beloved, had you ever more cause of joy? |
A89577 | and what i ● my people that wee should be able to offer thus willingly after this sort? |
A89577 | how beautifull is the face of this Assembly? |
A89577 | how great is the darknesse, where the light is turned into darknesse? |
A89577 | how miserable are they, when the very Fountain, that should afford them comfort is Poysoned? |
A89577 | how miserable is the body, where the very Organs of their breathing, the breath of their nostrils comes to be corrupted, or taken from them? |
A89577 | so I would say else to all Feasters, Is Ireland undon? |
A68150 | Againe, why should Christ die on the sixt day, rather then on the fifth, or fourth? |
A68150 | Againe, with like sorrow he sayth: How often would I haue gathered you togeather, as a Henne gathereth her Chickens, and you would not? |
A68150 | And the Lord sayd, Is any thing vnpossible with God? |
A68150 | And why was there darkenesse vntill the coole of the day, rather then till the Sunne setting? |
A68150 | And yet what could he doe more for them? |
A68150 | Are yee not much better then they? |
A68150 | But if it be of workes, then it is now no grace: What then? |
A68150 | But what saith the Scripture? |
A68150 | First, Christ the Restorer, was borne of a Virgin: Why? |
A68150 | For God who made the eye, shall not he see all the dwellers vpon the earth? |
A68150 | For the sinne of their mouth, and for the wordes of their lippes, they shall be taken in their pride: And why? |
A68150 | How much more then shall he doe the same for you? |
A68150 | How often shall I forgiue my Brother, till seuen times? |
A68150 | How shall hee not with him giue vs all thinges also? |
A68150 | I am hee onely, which for mine owne selfes sake, doe away thine offences, and forget thy sinnes: for what hast thou to make thee righteous with? |
A68150 | If the reason be demaunded why they did so? |
A68150 | Ismaels flouting might be after this sort; Is this hee that shall haue the Promise, in whom the Nations shall be blessed? |
A68150 | It may be obiected, How is Ismael an Egiptian, seeing hee is of Abraham? |
A68150 | Let euery one therefore say, The Lord is my Light and my Saluation; whom then shall I feare? |
A68150 | Oh, how suddenly doe they consume and perish, and come to a fearefull end? |
A68150 | Rebecca being with child, and they both striuing in her wombe, asketh counsell what should become of her? |
A68150 | Sayth the Clay to the Potter, What makest thou? |
A68150 | So likewise Hushas answereth Absalom; for when Absalom saw Hushai Dauids Counseller, he asketh him, Is this thy kindnesse to thy friend? |
A68150 | So that a souldier of Abrahams campe might aske some one of Canaan: Good- man of Canaan, who is this goodly Old man with a hoarie beard? |
A68150 | Some folishly dispute, Why God hath not saued all things, seeing he made all? |
A68150 | The Lord is the strength of my life, whereof then should I be afraid? |
A68150 | The question is of whom? |
A68150 | Then some will say, if God decreeth euery thing, why punisheth he any thing? |
A68150 | To whom? |
A68150 | Tush( say they) how shall God perceiue it? |
A68150 | Was not Abraham our Father, iustified by Workes, when he offered his Sonne Isaacke vpō the Altar? |
A68150 | What art thou that disputest with God? |
A68150 | What haue we to doe with the house of Dauid? |
A68150 | What haue we to doe with the house of Iessai? |
A68150 | What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power knowen, suffer with long patience the vessels of wrath appointed for destruction? |
A68150 | Why wentest thou not with thy friend? |
A68150 | Woe be vnto him that sayth vnto his Father, Why begattest thou; and to his Mother, Why barest thou? |
A68150 | Yet if it be obiected, that the tongue of Canaan was Hebrew, how then shall a simple Ploughman vnderstand it? |
A68150 | and leauing him to consider of his sinne, goeth to the woman in like tendernesse, saying, What hast thou done? |
A68150 | is there knowledge in the most highest? |
A68150 | or, thy worke serueth for nothing? |
A68150 | to the Spirits now in prison: Why? |
A68150 | where God sayth to Abraham, Thy seed shall be euill intreated in a Land that is not theirs 400. yeares, seeing they continue in Egipt but 215. yeares? |
A89500 | ( i. e.) if religion, lawes, authority& all have lost their awe, what can they doe? |
A89500 | ? |
A89500 | But you ought to be more tender of Christs truths ▪ you owe somewhat to Christs Saints and servāts: but I say again, more to his truths? |
A89500 | But you will say these are generalls that concerne the whole Church, especially at such a season, what doe you say to our distempers and distractions? |
A89500 | But you will say this is a worke of time, what is to be done to avoid the danger of the present distractions? |
A89500 | Dost thou not know mee? |
A89500 | If the Lord be with us, why is all this evill befallen us? |
A89500 | Secondly, If you goe to God you must goe to him in his owne way; how is that? |
A89500 | Why he was not more keene against the Papists, and preached not oftner against them? |
A89500 | Zuinglius was once asked by a friend, Cur non contra pontificios? |
A89500 | have greivances been redressed? |
A89500 | have you dealt with God so faithfully? |
A89500 | justice executed, the glory of God''s house provided for? |
A89500 | such great breaches and distractions, the ball of contention bandyed from one to another, cloudes gathering every day thicker& blacker? |
A89500 | with the people so kindly as you should? |
A55028 | ( himself tells her so) in which she might be lost, and do nothing at all to it? |
A55028 | 33. or else we are told by the Truth it selfe, we are no Christians; we can not be his Disciples? |
A55028 | 5, 6, Even send a forrein enemy, to take the prey, and take the spoil, and to tread us all down, like the mire of the streets? |
A55028 | And how little help hath the Church had from us in this regard? |
A55028 | And is not here then a strange drunkennesse, at least on one fide? |
A55028 | And may He not call for all that is His, at any time, or any way? |
A55028 | And now can our hazard by endeavor be worse,( at the worst) or more certain, or more reproachfull( though the reproach lesse just) then hers? |
A55028 | And now may I presume one step or two farther? |
A55028 | And now, though every one curses not, or swears like him, yet have not too many of us our fits, when we come into malignant companies, too like this? |
A55028 | And since that season, was it not morally possible to have speeded some things more then they have been? |
A55028 | And that is the other consideration, belonging to this Use, what help is propor and possible to be afforded to the Church in this her need? |
A55028 | And what death more certain, or usually more reproachfull, then for breaking through the known Law of an Imperious Monarch? |
A55028 | And wherefore? |
A55028 | And who knows, whether thou be come to the Kingdom for such a time as this? |
A55028 | Are not you His, by Redemption too? |
A55028 | Brethren, what think you of St. Pauls saying ▪ You are not your owne? |
A55028 | But 2 May we hope the like of any endeavours towards friends? |
A55028 | But are you assured, that you have all the way proceeded with that spirit of encouragement, that these things should have put into you? |
A55028 | But did Gods Prophets for bear ever for either, or both these causes? |
A55028 | But what say you to the killing of the two Witnesses? |
A55028 | But will our consciences now say, We have done so? |
A55028 | But will our consciences say, we have done this? |
A55028 | Can we name those, that have in this kinde been the better for us? |
A55028 | Comming hither as the heads of our severall Tribes, and Elders of our Cities? |
A55028 | Do your consciences now think, that as a Parliamentary Body, you have fully answered all his favours hitherto? |
A55028 | For the other, Was there not a time, when nothing you asked was denyed you? |
A55028 | Have we ever ventured to lose them, rather then they should lose Gods favour, or their souls, or the comforts of a good conscience? |
A55028 | Have we so much as tried in any whether they would endure a reproof? |
A55028 | Have we ventured to have them say, We hate them, because we would not,( could not) forbear to crosse them in their wayes of evill? |
A55028 | He appoints thee to lay out so much for such an use, gives the Church a Letter of Atturney: Is it not thy due to yeeld it upon demand? |
A55028 | Her Person: Which of us, even the highest, matches her greatnesse? |
A55028 | How angry is he then, that will not afford us leisure, or means, nor them any help by us? |
A55028 | How enraged is God, when he so refuses to reform us, who pretended such desire of Reformation? |
A55028 | How exceeding few are otherwise? |
A55028 | How greatly must we needs say, he is provoked against us? |
A55028 | How long wilt thou he angry against the prayer of thy people? |
A55028 | How many are there, whose servants are ignorant, while themselves abound in knowledge, and even while they keep Ministers in their houses too? |
A55028 | How many who while they go to Church, their servants either stay at home, or go to the Tavern, or perhaps worse places? |
A55028 | How many would then indeed resolve to do nothing, and think themselves excusable too? |
A55028 | How much more are earthly men so meant? |
A55028 | How much more then any particular person? |
A55028 | How much more then will this fall heavy upon the forsakers of a Nation of Christians? |
A55028 | How unlikely was it she should prevail with one who in thirty dayes had not called for her, though his wife? |
A55028 | If He will have thee lay it down and give over thy office, maist thou say, I am not bound to yeeld to it? |
A55028 | If He will thee to sleight their friendship in this or that case canst thou say, thou owest Him no such respect? |
A55028 | In a word, thy lims, sense ▪ life, whence hadst thou them, or hast them first and last? |
A55028 | In how fair hopes of setling were we? |
A55028 | Is there any thing we are to Endeavour( let it be what it will) so unlikely to prosper, as this undertaking of hers? |
A55028 | May not that be to come, and even now comming, and where is then your confidence, and the promises you talk of? |
A55028 | Now doth not all this amount to all endeavour, and the Venture of the utmost hazard? |
A55028 | Once more; are you not His altogether, by covenant? |
A55028 | Or if some are, had we power with no more? |
A55028 | Or is the Church helped, by the courage of those against whom God is angry, for their unreformed lives? |
A55028 | Owest thou not all of them to Him? |
A55028 | Shall I not visit for these things, saith the Lord, shall not my soul be avenged on such a Nation as this? |
A55028 | The Sons in licentiousnesse, according as their fancy leads them? |

A55028 | Thou hast honour and dignity; who promoted thee? |
A55028 | Was it not pity, to drive her forward against such a Canons- mouth; when though she sate still, the Businesse should be done? |
A55028 | What can any one except against this, or except out of this? |
A55028 | What greater certainty can we have, or what equall, that what we are called to Endeavour and Venture for, will prosper if we do altogether nothing? |

A55028 | and a strange curse? |
A55028 | and accordingly to His Church, at His wil? |
A55028 | and appearing in opposition to his so doted on Darling Haman? |
A55028 | and he that keeps thy soul, doth not he know it? |
A55028 | and now pressing upon him against his Law? |
A55028 | and of a Decree, already sent forth into all his Dominions? |
A55028 | and shall not he render to every man according to his works? |
A55028 | and so thy selfe in all respects to Him? |
A55028 | and specially, that will not venture themselves for her help in danger? |

A55028 | or credited by our silence, when their misbehaviours make a loud noise? |
A55028 | or neither? |
A55028 | or one onely? |
A55028 | or rather lent it thee, made thee steward of it? |
A55028 | or to any of us, can there be lesse hazard, if we forbear altogether any endeavour? |
A55028 | or what is the utmost venture? |
A55028 | or whether they shall and at last, in a peacefull and happy Reformation? |

A66822 | Have you observing seen th''industrious Bees Perform their constant round of Offices? |
A66822 | Here one less coy ask''d me, What sly intent Brought me to trouble their retirement? |
A66822 | How manifold''s their business and their care? |
A66822 | How many Names smote with a sudden blast? |
A66822 | How many darts of malice must they shock, With which the fairest marks are soonest struck? |
A66822 | If but a word drops in another''s praise, What stupifying vapours does it raise In him? |
A66822 | Is there any thing, whereof it may be said, see, this is new? |
A66822 | Now should an opinion be built upon this one place, or on all the rest? |
A66822 | Now what a monstrous arbitrary Ellipsis is this? |
A66822 | Or that answer to him, who to defend this Rioting and Luxury, pleaded the largeness of his Estate, and how well it would bear it? |
A66822 | Or] what can the man do that cometh after the King? |
A66822 | Quare Templ ● ruunt antiqua Deûm? |
A66822 | Quid Cremerae legio,& Cannis consumpta juventus, Tot bellorum animae? |
A66822 | Quid juvat hoc, templis nostros immittere mores, Et bona diis ex hac sceleratâ ducere pulpâ? |
A66822 | Therefore they argue thus; Why am I wise? |
A66822 | What can be more grave than that reasoning against Intemperance? |
A66822 | What inchantment is it, that makes men throw away their time and opportunities of better things upon such extravagance]? |
A66822 | What profit[ then, at least what lasting profit] hath he that worketh, in that wherein he laboureth? |
A66822 | What real profit then, what true delights, Reward their toilsome days and restless nights? |
A66822 | Why feel I in me reasoning faculties? |
A66822 | Why were we not all Soul, and sent to dwell With meager Spirits and Forms intangible? |
A66822 | [ And now is all this nothing? |
A66822 | quid Fabricius, manesque Camilli? |
A66822 | — Ergo Quod superat, non est melius, quo insumere possis? |
A66822 | — Vides, ut pallidus omnis Caenâ desurgat dubiâ? |
A23677 | ''t is said, His rest shall be glorious; and when shall this be? |
A23677 | 1 What is meant by the Daily Sacrifice? |
A23677 | 3. where he speaks of the Scoffers that should ask, where is the promise of his coming? |
A23677 | 396. whence is this Image- worship, and the Design of the Devil? |
A23677 | Affirmatively,''T is to man, What is man? |
A23677 | Again he that hates the evil that he doth, and complains of his body of sin, O wretched Man that I am, who shall deliver me from this body of Death? |
A23677 | And did not this tend to the taking away of the daily sacrifice? |
A23677 | And for what end must he be thus shut up? |
A23677 | And how shall this be? |
A23677 | And if he was some years upon Earth in his state of Humiliation; why may he not be for more years here in a state of Exaltation? |
A23677 | And if it became him to do this, how much more doth it become us to do it now? |
A23677 | And is not this enough to stop all contradicting Mouths, who ask, where is the promise of these things? |
A23677 | And seeing God hath such regard to their honour, how dear should His honour be to them? |
A23677 | And shall not Christ then Reign upon Earth at that time? |
A23677 | And the Souls under the Altar cry, How long? |
A23677 | And thus do the Followers of the Lamb on Earth: How long? |
A23677 | And to whom is it to be put in subjection? |
A23677 | And what was shewn him? |
A23677 | And what will the Lord do then? |
A23677 | And when we hear these glad- tidings of great joy to come, why should it not be with us according to that of Solomon? |
A23677 | And why blessed? |
A23677 | And why shall these Heavens and Earth be shaken? |
A23677 | As our beloved brother, Paul hath written unto you, as also in all his Epistles, speaking of these things: What things? |
A23677 | At what time? |
A23677 | Be at peace with the Commands of God, say as David, O how doe I love thy Law? |
A23677 | But against this it may be urged, John calls him another Beast, and why should not we judge so of him? |
A23677 | But here it may be askt as the Disciples did of Christ; When shall these things be? |
A23677 | But how a Law? |
A23677 | But how is Death the last Enemy, if after Saints shall be raised, Gog and Magog shall gather against them? |
A23677 | But how shall Christ, being the Passeover, eat it? |
A23677 | But how shall the glorified Saints rule in the World to come? |
A23677 | But how was Christ our Passeover slain in Egypt? |
A23677 | But in what manner shall the raised Saints reign? |
A23677 | But of such as will ly, such as delight in it, and make a practice of it, what doth the Lord say of such? |
A23677 | But what came of it? |
A23677 | But what follows? |
A23677 | But what is Christ''s answer? |
A23677 | But what reason was there to call any part of Judea, the Land very far off from Jeurusalem? |
A23677 | But what will the Lord do for his People, in this so great an extremity? |
A23677 | But where is this Wisdom now? |
A23677 | But where will the second Babylon, or Seat of this second Beast be? |
A23677 | But who are most likely to go away justified? |
A23677 | But who is, or can be in this life without spot? |
A23677 | Death is sometimes put for a Change in Scripture, and why then may it not be so taken here? |
A23677 | Doth God give a Command that this be written for our learning, and shall not we read? |
A23677 | Doth not the Scripture say, That Christ shall come from Heaven, and all the Angels with him; and the dead Saints shall be raised and come with him? |
A23677 | For this Personal coming is that which the Scoffers derided, asking where is the promise of his coming? |
A23677 | For what hath been discovered hitherto of this Mystery? |
A23677 | For who are they that shall live, and reign, or be raised and reign? |
A23677 | How can it be said that this Prince is Christ, seeing the Prince is to prepare for himself and the People of the Land, a Bullock for a Sin- offering? |
A23677 | How can these things be? |
A23677 | How dieth the wise Man? |
A23677 | How dyeth the godly Man? |
A23677 | How long shall be the Vision concerning the daily Sacrifice? |
A23677 | How long shall be the Vision? |
A23677 | How long shall it be to the end of these wonders? |
A23677 | How long shall it be to the end of these wonders? |
A23677 | How long, O Lord? |
A23677 | How shall Christ be offered when this Temple shall be built? |
A23677 | How shall these Scriptures be reconciled with the former? |
A23677 | How shall these two places be reconciled? |
A23677 | How will this be? |
A23677 | How, and when did they, see it? |
A23677 | I shall not see sorrow, saith Babylon; but what is the Word of the Lord concerning her? |
A23677 | If after this destruction of the Grave Death shall happen to any Saints, how shall it be swallowed up in victory? |
A23677 | If any shall ask, as Paul in another case, What advantage hath the Jew? |
A23677 | If by Peace- Offerings, Meat- Offerings, and Burnt- Offerings, Saints are meant, and their Services; how are these said to reconcile? |
A23677 | If he came to appear in the form of a Servant upon Earth; why may he not come and appear in the form of a Lord, and of the King of Kings? |
A23677 | If he did come to suffer upon Earth; why may he not come to reign upon Earth? |
A23677 | If the casting away of them be the reconciling of the World; what shall the receiving of them be, but Life from the dead? |
A23677 | If the hope of a Resurrection, at so great a distance, was such a support, how much more should it be so now, being much nearer? |
A23677 | If these things be so much expected in Heaven, how much more should they be expected on Earth? |
A23677 | Immediately after the tribulation of those days, the Sun shall be darkned,& c. What tribulation is this? |
A23677 | Is Ephraim my dear Son? |
A23677 | Is Ephraim my dear son? |
A23677 | Is it not then the duty of Churches, and all believers in them, to know these things, and to set their Seals to them that they are true? |
A23677 | Is it so? |
A23677 | Is this any way likely? |
A23677 | Know ye not, that the Saints shall judge the World? |
A23677 | Let the particulars be observed: First the Blood is to be put upon the Four Horns of the Altar: What do these signifie, but the Power of the Godhead? |
A23677 | Next, let this place it self be considered; and first, What was the occasion of these words; Pilate asks Christ, Art thou the King of the Jews? |
A23677 | Not as Pharaoh, who is the Lord that I should obey him? |
A23677 | Now at this time the Priest shall not take a Widow,& c. What is signified hereby? |
A23677 | Now how can that so sweet a day spoken of by Esaias, be the dreadful day spoken of by Malachi? |
A23677 | Now if the thousand years be past, when was the Prophecy of Gog, and Magog, fulfilled? |
A23677 | Now if these things should be weighed in the Balance of Reason, what would it have said, but as Reason did in Mary? |
A23677 | Now it may be said to many of those which stand in that Rank, How long will ye be drunken? |
A23677 | Now observe, this Sun of Righteousness, shall arise with healing in his Wings, what are the Wings of this Sun? |
A23677 | Now the daily Sacrifice being taken in a good sense in this place, why should it not be so in the other? |
A23677 | Now the great question is, what Resurrection is here meant? |
A23677 | Now what doth this signifie, but that there will be a Church? |
A23677 | Now what will better encourage the Witnesses to endure to the end, than the hope of a better Resurrection? |
A23677 | Now when shall this time end? |
A23677 | Now when the Altar hath done its Work as the Lion of God, what shall it be then, and how shall it appear? |
A23677 | Now who shall dwell with those burnings? |
A23677 | Now, seeing Christ expects these things, ought not we to expect with him? |
A23677 | One said to the Man clothed in Linen, How long shall it be to the end of these Wonders? |
A23677 | Pilate asks him again, Art thou a King? |
A23677 | Pilate askt, What is Truth? |
A23677 | Preaching and Administration of Sacraments? |
A23677 | Q. Shall some Saints rule over other Saints in the New Jerusalem? |
A23677 | Secondly, what follows? |
A23677 | Seeing these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness? |
A23677 | Shall Heaven come down and be upon Earth, saith Reason? |
A23677 | Shall the Sun in the New Heavens be darkned? |
A23677 | So the Creatures cry, How long, O Lord, dost thou not avenge our bondage on them that oppress us? |
A23677 | So what advantage hath he that knows these Mysteries? |
A23677 | So why may we not gather something from that work of God, in giving them Water out of the Rock? |
A23677 | So, why shall the Saints succeed the holy Angels in their Government? |
A23677 | Surely somewhat else seems hinted; and why may we not think it to be meant of a Land very far off, in respect of the time of its being? |
A23677 | The Memory of what Saints now do and suffer for Christ, will be very grateful and pleasing to him: for what shall Christ say then? |
A23677 | The Souls under the Altar cry, how long, O Lord, dost thou not avenge our Blood on them that dwell on the Earth? |
A23677 | The Water is called Honey and Oyl: And why? |
A23677 | The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men? |
A23677 | Their Kingdom, what is that but the Graecian? |
A23677 | There are these several Lusts in the World, and the World affords them their several Objects; carnal Delight? |
A23677 | There is lastly, a Beast to be overcome? |
A23677 | They tell a story of a Woman that had seven Husbands successively; and ask whose wife she should be of the seven, in the Resurrection? |
A23677 | This is a great Question: How long? |
A23677 | This is the sense of the Saints in Heaven, and shall any on the Earth contradict the sense of Heaven? |
A23677 | This shall be Immediatly after the Tribulation of those days, what Tribulation? |
A23677 | Those that are clothed with the Sun, or those that are not, nay will not be otherwise cloathed then with the Moon? |
A23677 | Thus was it when Peter, and James, and John saw, as Christ, so Moses, and Elias: and why may it not be thus after the coming of Christ? |
A23677 | Thus we see that there is the Fathers Throne, and Christs own Throne; but where is the place of his Throne? |
A23677 | Vnto the Angels hath he not put into subjection the World to come: But what is man? |
A23677 | What Law? |
A23677 | What a Glorious Liberty will it be for the Sons of God to present themselves before the Lord, and no Satan among them? |
A23677 | What a dreadful thing would it be, to behold a Sea of such Glass mingled with fire, and to be in danger to be driven and forced into it? |
A23677 | What are these, but Fishers of Men? |
A23677 | What doth this signifie? |
A23677 | What end is this? |
A23677 | What is man that thou art so mindful of him, and the son of man that thou visitest him? |
A23677 | What is meant by the Beauties of Holiness? |
A23677 | What is meant by the Border of the Altar? |
A23677 | What is the reason that now''t is otherwise? |
A23677 | What is there of satisfaction given by any, for the discovery of this Mystery? |
A23677 | What may we conceive to be meant hereby? |
A23677 | What profit is there by speaking, or writing of them? |
A23677 | What reason is there then, that you should imbrace this branch of the exhortation? |
A23677 | What shall Christ then do as a Judge, or what shall be his judging- work at the beginning of the thousand years? |
A23677 | What shall be said to those that improve their Talents and Pounds? |
A23677 | What the Creature''s Liberty is, into which it shall be delivered? |
A23677 | What the Creatures bondage is? |
A23677 | What then shall we understand by this Fire? |
A23677 | What things? |
A23677 | What was David''s great affliction in the Wilderness, to his great glory which he had when advanced to the Throne? |
A23677 | What was Joseph''s anguish and trouble, to the joy which after he had? |
A23677 | What will it not attempt, when there is the sweetness of Revenge tempting to it? |
A23677 | When shall Antichrist be destroyed? |
A23677 | When shall the glorious Kingdom of Christ come? |
A23677 | Whence is it that the Creatures shall thus rejoyce with the Saints? |
A23677 | Whether any Saints of the Tribes in the Land or saved Nations shall die in that time, or whether they shall be changed and translated into the City? |
A23677 | Who among us shall dwell with devouring Fire? |
A23677 | Who among us shall dwell with everlasting Burnings? |
A23677 | Why blessed? |
A23677 | Why dost thou judge thy Brother? |
A23677 | Why shall the Saints execute the Judgment written? |
A23677 | Why should not the Fire which Peter speakes of be here meant? |
A23677 | Why? |
A23677 | Will not the personal coming of Christ put an end to Ordinances? |
A23677 | Ye ask that ye may consume it upon your lusts: Lust is a great Devourer; what great Estates are many times consumed by it? |
A23677 | and how much more will it become the people of the Land to do it, when the Jews shall be called, who shall then be in a growing state? |
A23677 | and if Days, why not Years? |
A23677 | and if Years, why not a thousand Years, as the Scripture saith? |
A23677 | and should not these things be taught among the Churches? |
A23677 | and was it not an abomination making desolate? |
A23677 | and what are these things a sign of? |
A23677 | and when this dreadful Conflagration shall be, who shall be like Moses on the Mount that burned, and not be consumed? |
A23677 | and who hath the Understanding to count? |
A23677 | depart from me, I know you not, ye workers of iniquity; you are neither justified nor sanctified, and therefore what should you do here? |
A23677 | even without the works of the established Law; for he adds, do we then make void the Law through faith? |
A23677 | have not we believed, and yielded evangelical obedience? |
A23677 | how long from the time of the Prophecy to the time of the performance? |
A23677 | if not fully up to it: Lord Lord, have we not prophesied in thy Name& c. Have not we taken thee for our Lord? |
A23677 | is he a pleasant child? |
A23677 | shall any of the Stars of that Heaven fall? |
A23677 | some of them of understanding shall fall to try them, and to purge and to make them white; but how long shall this trying time be? |
A23677 | that repliest against God? |
A23677 | this Christ doth not deny, but asks another Question, Speakest thou this of thy self? |
A23677 | what is thy Reason, that it should argue against God? |
A23677 | who shall live when God doth this? |
A23677 | why may we not conclude thus? |
A70111 | 39? |
A70111 | And if Pere Simon did not think that they could do him any Service in this matter, why did he alledg them? |
A70111 | And is it not a goodly one? |
A70111 | Answer, And why might not Moses use that way of speaking,( the Canaanite was then in the Land,) is there any falshood in it? |
A70111 | Answer, First, What though Moses was not the Author of this proverbial way of speaking? |
A70111 | Answer, Secondly, But how does P. Simon prove that Moses was not the Author of it? |
A70111 | But can P. Simon prove, that in Abrahams time, Children were not named till after their Circumcision? |
A70111 | But is it not in that place of the Book of Exodus, where P. Simon would have had it to have been? |
A70111 | But some may say, How came King Og''s Bed- stead to be at that time in Rabbath amongst the Ammonites? |
A70111 | But what can be imagined more groundless and undefensible than all this? |
A70111 | But what is all this to the purpose? |
A70111 | Doth not this look too like unto what I mentioned before, that Moses might write the Book of Genesis by an humane fallible Spirit? |
A70111 | In the very beginning of his Laws, writing thus,( God said, but what?) |
A70111 | Is thine Eye Evil, because I am Good? |
A70111 | Moreover, how could be added to this History, the Rebellion of Corah, which is a thing so injurious to all his Posterity? |
A70111 | Moses wrote of me, But if ye beleive not his writeings, how shall ye beleive my words?) |
A70111 | True; it is so, understanding it of the Land beyond Jordan; but what then? |
A70111 | Will they say, there was never such a Man as Moses, and that whatever hath been said of him, are fables invented for delight? |
A70111 | [ If ye shall say, What shall we eat the Seventh Year? |
A70111 | did they cast Lots for it? |
A70111 | is it not a certain truth, That the Canaanites were possessors of the Land of Canaan, when Abraham came first, to Sojourn in it? |
A70111 | is it not usual even with Prophane Authors to speak of themselves in the Third Person? |
A70111 | is not this the highest Ingratitude, both to their God, and to Moses their Guide and Captain? |
A70111 | might they not be numbred at their Circumcision, yea, or before their Circumcision, in Abrahams time? |
A70111 | or could it be done without their knowledg; yea, and who durst be so bold as ever to attempt it? |
A70111 | was it a thing so necessary, that they could not dispense with it? |
A70111 | what could their cruellest Enemies have invented more dishonourable to them? |
A70111 | why must Corahs Family bear that Mark of Infamy, rather than any other? |
A70111 | will it follow that therefore Moses could not be the Author of the Pentateuch? |
A70111 | would not this have been a venturing to lose all, for to gain nothing? |
A67563 | And he said, This evil is of the Lord, Wherefore should I wait upon the Lord any longer? |
A67563 | And how plain and conspicuous have been the signatures, and impressions of the hand of God upon those Calamities? |
A67563 | And how shall this same calamity be removed? |
A67563 | And now what consequence would any one expect from such an antecedent? |
A67563 | And we, that have judged another, have we not condemned our selves? |
A67563 | Are not all these things strange and wonderful? |
A67563 | As he hath smitten us more and more, have not we revolted more and more? |
A67563 | As the Lord''s hand hath been more and more lifted up, have not we endeavoured with an higher and higher hand, to sin against him? |
A67563 | Because the Lord hath vexed him by his plagues, will he endeavour to plague the Lord by his wickedness? |
A67563 | But what then becomes of the 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉? |
A67563 | Can a woman( saith the Prophet Isaiab) forget her child? |
A67563 | Chaldee 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉: Cur patienter me geram? |
A67563 | Did ever any man exalt himself against God, and hath prevailed? |
A67563 | Doth he not deserve to be punished and tormented with many stripes? |
A67563 | Have they prevailed upon us, to break off our sins by Repentance, or to continue in them, and increase them with a brisker and sturdier resolution? |
A67563 | How great and manifold have been the Calamities of this poor sinful Kingdom? |
A67563 | How was Elisha concerned in what had happened? |
A67563 | I call it an Inference because in effect this deliberative question carries the force of a strong negation, Wherefore should I wait? |
A67563 | IS this now your Judgment and Determination? |
A67563 | In all this is not the hand of God clearly to be seen? |
A67563 | In respect of Publique Calamities, which have been brought upon us? |
A67563 | In the Valley of Hinnom for the wickedness of his madness? |
A67563 | Instead of being a Sober and Fasting People, are we not become a Riotous and Drunken People? |
A67563 | Instead of being made a Religious and a Praying People, are we not become an Atheistical, and a Scoffing, and Blaspheming People? |
A67563 | Is not this the folly and madness of wickedness? |
A67563 | Is not this the wickedness of folly and madness? |
A67563 | Is not this( I say) Englands case? |
A67563 | Is this the sentence of this great and noble, this wise and honorable Assembly? |
A67563 | Let not God help thee, how should I help thee? |
A67563 | Nay, have we readily accepted and embraced such means as have been tendered to that purpose? |
A67563 | Of our Behaviour in reference to those Calamities? |
A67563 | Or will he cause Quails or Manna to fall from heaven, and remove the Famine, wherewith himself and people are distressed? |
A67563 | Septuagint 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, Quid deprecabor? |
A67563 | The way of force and compulsion: and the former of these he hath declined, and will he therefore betake himself to the later? |
A67563 | Then how hath God declared himself as to Prayer and Fasting on one hand, and to Cursing and Swearing on the other? |
A67563 | This evil is from the Lord, Wherefore should I wait upon the Lord any longer? |
A67563 | To all which he replies in these words, Mah Ochil ladonai: Wherefore should I fast and pray, or betake my self to weeping and mourning? |
A67563 | To be tormented( as it were) in Bedlam, for the madness of his wickedness? |
A67563 | Was it only the case of that King of Israel? |
A67563 | We see him coop''d up by the King of Syria, and will he now make War with the King of Heaven? |
A67563 | What doth this man intend to do? |
A67563 | What is the coherence? |
A67563 | What shall we do to be saved from ruine and destruction? |
A67563 | What sort( I say) of Spiritual Judgment, or Temporal Calamity? |
A67563 | When God shall call us to answer upon such interrogatories, how are we provided to reply? |
A67563 | Whether we can wash our hands of the universal Irreligion and Debauchery which seems to have over spread the Land? |
A67563 | Who would not expect that the words should run thus? |
A67563 | Why should I submit and humble my self under the hand of God? |
A67563 | Will he arise in the power of his might, and make a gallant sally, and so scatter and confound his adversaries? |
A67563 | Will he cause the earth to open, and swallow up this Benhadad, and cover the Congregation of the Syrians? |
A67563 | Will it not be fit therefore for us, to examine our condition, to consider what we may expect, and what is fit for us to do? |
A67563 | You speak of Praying, 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉? |
A67563 | You talk of Waiting, have I not waited all this while? |
A67563 | You tell me of the Lord, Who is the Lord that I should concern my self about him? |
A67563 | and is it not the case of this Kingdom of England? |
A67563 | and what doth this resolution signifie? |
A67563 | are they not marvellous in our eyes? |
A67563 | had he devoured the child that was dead, or hid the living child; or brougt the Famine upon Samaria? |
A67563 | he said, This evil is from the Lord; wherefore should I wait on the Lord any longer? |
A67563 | is not this case of Joram a monstrous and a prodigious case? |
A67563 | or where is the Logick of this cursing and damning resolution? |
A67563 | or wherein lies thy confidence, that thou rebellest? |
A67563 | that strivest against God? |
A67563 | to what end should I pray? |
A67563 | were not this a foolish imagination, an instance of stupidity and madness? |

A86987 | A word spoken in due season, how good is it? |
A86987 | Are we defective in any essential part of Religion? |
A86987 | Can they object against the substantials of our worship? |
A86987 | Can they object that our way of worship hath the Roman complexion, that there is in it any thing of Popery and Superstition? |
A86987 | He that formed the eye, shall not he see? |
A86987 | He that planted the ear, shall not he hear? |
A86987 | If the effect be so glorious, what is the cause? |
A86987 | In the late Reign how did her Dove like innocency appear? |
A86987 | Money is the nerve, the strong sinew of War; without this what peace can we expect? |
A86987 | Now what man of sense or understanding can imagine him to want any power or excellence which He alone hath imparted to his creatures? |
A86987 | Shall we depend upon the strength of Leagues and Confederacies? |
A86987 | Shall we trust in our Naval Force? |
A86987 | Shall we trust in prudent Politicians? |
A86987 | Shall we trust in the power and friendship of our Allies? |
A86987 | Shall we trust in the strength of tough, well- disciplin''d and veteran Troops? |
A86987 | The charming voice of antiquity speaks in behalf of our Religion: What then is the matter? |
A86987 | What just reason is there of complaint and dissatisfaction? |
A86987 | What occasions Nonconformity? |

A86987 | and what exposeth this nation now to such a conquest, but our deplorable dissatisfactions, schisms, and religious dissentions? |
A86987 | how can He humble the troubler of Israel? |
A86987 | how hath it brought down rain from Heaven to refresh and enrich the parched ground? |

A34747 | A black gown, or Canonical coat? |
A34747 | A service- book, or book of homilys? |
A34747 | Again, doth the voice of the Lord command all wheels? |
A34747 | And are not these Seekers just so? |
A34747 | And first for the principal Architect: who is it that fastens the nail? |
A34747 | And first: Are all things in the world, but as so many wheeles, so many rolling things? |
A34747 | And in Ministring justice, ever have this in your minds: We are nails to bear the burden of Authority: who fasten''d us here? |
A34747 | And is it so grievous to be driven from our habitations? |
A34747 | And is not the King that nail? |
A34747 | And must I not go along with him in every thing? |
A34747 | And of the Vine- branch which is amongst the trees of the Forrest? |
A34747 | And the great question at that severe day of examination shal be: what service have you done? |
A34747 | And what disorderly motions are there in all our wheels, great and smal, high and low? |
A34747 | And what hath made England so rich? |
A34747 | And what of all this? |
A34747 | And what''s the next? |
A34747 | And what''s the reason of all this impatience? |
A34747 | And what? |
A34747 | And wherefor ● is all this? |
A34747 | And would Christ be put off so? |
A34747 | And yet here''s a further comfort to Jerusalem: Doth the voice of the Lord command all wheels? |
A34747 | Are all things in this world but turning wheels? |
A34747 | Are these indeed for the glory of their fathers house? |
A34747 | Are they able, useful nails? |
A34747 | Are they vessels of the Sanctuary? |
A34747 | Art thou displeased at the motion of the King? |
A34747 | Be content to waite, is it not a little while? |
A34747 | Be well shod: be couragious: how can the Wheel move long without shattring, except it have a good strake? |
A34747 | Behold it''s cast into the fire for fewel, the fire devoureth both the ends of it, and the midst of it is burnt; is it meet for any work? |
A34747 | Both are exalted very high: now tel me which wil you chuse to depend upon? |
A34747 | But do we not see other irregulat motions? |
A34747 | But doth it so? |
A34747 | But that thou shalt live here, and dye here, and lay thy bones here? |
A34747 | But the wheels at the feet of the Cherubins, what are they? |
A34747 | But what answers Daniel? |
A34747 | But what may be the reason, or ground of this? |
A34747 | But what place? |
A34747 | But what service do they as Magistrates? |
A34747 | But what''s the end? |
A34747 | But what? |
A34747 | But why are Magistrates called nails? |
A34747 | But you wil say perhaps, how may we know the best nails? |
A34747 | Do they not want eyes? |
A34747 | Do you not see abundance of false prophets run up and down like wheels? |
A34747 | Do you not see what abundance there are of these? |
A34747 | Doth God cry any word in your hearing? |
A34747 | Doth God fasten only such as be godly in a sure place? |
A34747 | Doth Michaiah prophesie evill to wicked Ahab? |
A34747 | Doth it not abound with flourishing Cities, and fruitfull fields? |
A34747 | England hath been a quiet, and setled Land for many years; and hath it not grown a Magazine of wealth? |
A34747 | Gods Throne moves upon Wheels: What''s the meaning of that? |
A34747 | Hath God fastened in the Church, and Common- wealth good, profitable, and serviceable nayls? |
A34747 | Hath not God set him upon the throne? |
A34747 | Hath not this been a common word: whosoever be New- elect, we know who will be Maior? |
A34747 | Have they not discovered their dangers, and called them to repentance, saying O do not these abominable things which the Lord hateth? |
A34747 | Have they too little understanding to govern? |
A34747 | How many gathered Churches or Congregations are there? |
A34747 | I know you can not miss applying of it: hath not the Lord cryed in our ears by his sons of thunder? |
A34747 | I mean, licentious, unlicenced alehouses: Oh how loud did some wheels crake? |
A34747 | I wil make thee the living creature, and thou hast thy wheels about thee: how do they move? |
A34747 | If a nayl be not at leasure to bear vessels, knock it out; why doth it trouble the wall? |
A34747 | If thou in the mean time be un- deserving, unworthy, and base? |
A34747 | In the eye of the world, who could be faster rivetted in his high place, then Shebna? |
A34747 | In the name of God; what makes this stopping? |
A34747 | Instable, and rouling? |
A34747 | Is a fixed and setled condition such a sweet blessing? |
A34747 | Is every wheel turned by the voice of the son of God? |
A34747 | Is it for the honour of your Citie to have Sodoms Character? |
A34747 | Is it not as an oyntment powred forth, even as the fragrant spikenard? |
A34747 | Is it the Lord of hosts hath made you rulers? |
A34747 | Is that the way to bring it into contempt? |
A34747 | It may be worth inquiring, what is the matter the Wheels move no better? |
A34747 | Know you what you pursue? |
A34747 | Let it not, I beseech you, be said of you, as Paul sometimes said of his Galatians, Ye did run well, who did hinder you? |
A34747 | Me thinks I hear some reply: what nail should we depend upon but that which the Lord hath fasten''d? |
A34747 | Must Gods Prophets and Ministers speak what they hear from God? |
A34747 | Must the Prophets tongue be charmed with fair words? |
A34747 | Must we Ministers cowardly for fear, forbear to tell the people of their transgressions, and the house of Juda of their sins? |
A34747 | Neither here can you avoid the Application: Doth not the Lord seem to be departing from England? |
A34747 | No motion but by his appointment? |
A34747 | Not at leasure, saith shee, to do justice? |
A34747 | Nothing but great iron hobnayles? |
A34747 | Now what shall I present? |
A34747 | Or at the motion of the Parliament? |
A34747 | Or rather who is it? |
A34747 | Or what wil God now give unto man wherein he may rest? |
A34747 | Or wil men make a pin thereof to hang a vessel thereon? |
A34747 | Or, may not this bee the cause of their not moving? |
A34747 | Perhaps sometimes they will roul to the Court of Justice: and what do they there? |
A34747 | Rejoyce rather: what a world of comforts may your Ladiship have in your loss? |
A34747 | Saul seeing the people lament bitterly, said unto them: What ayleth this people that they weep? |
A34747 | Shal wood be taken thereof to do any work? |
A34747 | TO whom was this word cryed? |
A34747 | That pride, fulnesse of bread, and abundance of idlenesse is in her? |
A34747 | That the voice of the Lord should thus command, and over- aw all the wheel''s? |
A34747 | The Exposition And I] and who is that? |
A34747 | The King is the head, the houses are the body; if you take the head off the nail, what can hang safely on it? |
A34747 | The Kingdom is departed from thee: So commeth the word of the Lord to Shebna; What hast thou here? |
A34747 | The Voice of God from the Throne hath called to us a long time; Oh Wheel? |
A34747 | The Wheel shall be broken at the Cistera: and what is the meaning of that? |
A34747 | The living creatures move, the Angels move, the wheels move swiftly, and shall we stand still? |
A34747 | The middle nails: they are the Ministers of the word, the Clergy, as they call them; wel what hangs upon the most of them? |
A34747 | The nail that''s fasten''d: what, or who is that? |
A34747 | The question is, why should the son of God cry this word, O Wheel, in the Prophets hearing? |
A34747 | The wheels were lifted up stately, and moved gloriously: whence was that? |
A34747 | The whole world what is it but a Sphere? |
A34747 | Their motion is just like that of the jack- wheels; they turn and turn, but what do they turn? |
A34747 | Ther''s a goodly row of them: but let''s see what service they do in their places: What hangs on then? |
A34747 | Ther''s some of the greater sort of Nayls, look what hangs on them? |
A34747 | There are other of the high Nayls hang very full of things: But of what? |
A34747 | There were Devils in a man, and when they saw Christ approaching, they feared he would rebuk them, and what did they to prevent it? |
A34747 | Therefore sayes David, Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: Say, Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces: And why? |
A34747 | They that have a setled habitation in a land where Gods worship is established: And why? |
A34747 | This is certain; our motion still is neerer and neerer to the end: what a deal of our motion is spent since we came together into this place? |
A34747 | This was the vision, but what was the signification? |
A34747 | Thus saith the Lord, hast thou killed, and also gotten possession? |
A34747 | To descend to lesser wheels: do not things go with thee according to thy desire? |
A34747 | Too little ability? |
A34747 | Upon this Theater of the earth, how doth man act his part? |
A34747 | Upon this Theater of the earth, how is the Church of Christ wheeled, and hurried up and down? |
A34747 | Upon whom was the eye of all the Court but upon Shebna? |
A34747 | Vbi? |
A34747 | Wel, but what was the end? |
A34747 | What I not one one Wheel to draw away the Fish on the Lords day? |
A34747 | What abundance of empty nails do we see round about? |
A34747 | What are these but Atheists, and such as deny Providence? |
A34747 | What burdens have you born in the Church and Common- wealth? |
A34747 | What but a plurality of livings? |
A34747 | What cometh of the Vinetree above all other trees? |
A34747 | What hast thou here? |
A34747 | What made you stand still, or go back? |
A34747 | What miseries do they endure? |
A34747 | What nail is it? |
A34747 | What nail? |
A34747 | What not one Wheel to break the brood of drunkards, and Ale- house- haunters? |
A34747 | What not one Wheel to draw off the beggars from our heels? |
A34747 | What proper place is now left for man? |
A34747 | What shal their end be? |
A34747 | What should I speak of Families? |
A34747 | What was he then? |
A34747 | What''s the reason of this? |
A34747 | What? |
A34747 | Whatever hath been, or whatever shal be hereafter, peace or war, order or confusion, safety or ruin: what shal we say? |
A34747 | Where are you? |
A34747 | Where is this nail fasten''d? |
A34747 | Whereto shal I liken this accursed generation? |
A34747 | Who would not have hanged upon Shebna( that had looked with a carnal eye) and declined Eliakim? |
A34747 | Why do you let them lie so quietly? |
A34747 | Why dost thou think thy self fastened here as a nayl that can not be removed? |
A34747 | Why then art thou at leasure to be a King? |
A34747 | Why, how comes that about? |
A34747 | Why, what might the matter be? |
A34747 | Why, what''s their special wickedness? |
A34747 | Wil not your honor be offended if I show my folly, and boast a little to the world? |
A34747 | Would you be exalted to honor? |
A34747 | Would you have able and faithful Magistrates and Ministers in your City, in the Kingdom? |
A34747 | Would you have the Church and Kingdom, and City flourish again? |
A34747 | Would you have? |
A34747 | Would you keep good and serviceable nails? |
A34747 | Would you stand fast in your places of dignity? |
A34747 | Yes good reason: What hand should turn the wheel, but the same that made it? |
A34747 | You see how many evils are upon us, how great our dangers: would you remove all these? |
A34747 | and scattered? |
A34747 | and whom hast thou here? |
A34747 | and whom hast thou here? |
A34747 | are not those sins, and many more, ours? |
A34747 | are these things for the glory of your fathers house? |
A34747 | do not the wheels move to thy liking? |
A34747 | doth the reproving the faults, and negligences of Magistrates, strike at the root of Magistracy? |
A34747 | have not the faithful messengers of the Lord shewed the people their transgressions, and rebuked them sharply? |
A34747 | have they too little substance, two little height? |
A34747 | how bitterly did they speak against them? |
A34747 | how did they threaten them? |
A34747 | how forward and active have they been in reforming abuses, and doing for the good of the City? |
A34747 | how neer is his exit to his entrance? |
A34747 | if ever they came in place they would do, I that they would, great matters: at last power comes into their hands, and what is done then? |
A34747 | mutato nomine: change but the name: for Ierusalem read Norwich: for Iuda and Israel read England, and doth it not hold right? |
A34747 | or at the motion of the Army? |
A34747 | that thou hast hewed thee out a Sepulchre here& c. which is, as if he should have said: what business hast thou in this Land? |
A34747 | the great Wheels the Magistrates? |
A34747 | the want of GODS Spirit dwelling in them? |
A34747 | the want of zeale for God? |
A34747 | thou hast turned very well, thou hast done worthily in thy place? |
A34747 | what burden do they bear? |
A34747 | what kindred? |
A34747 | what not one Wheel appear to scatter the open prophaners of the Lords day? |
A34747 | what office was he settled in? |
A34747 | where are the Wheels all this while? |
A34747 | why do they not stir? |
A34747 | why do they not turn, and run more frequently and diligently into their several Wards? |
A34747 | why do you not turn in your Sphear? |
A34747 | why move you not? |
A34747 | why persecutest thou me? |
A34747 | would not one think there had been some greasing of the Wheel, it is so quiet and still, on the suddain? |
A34747 | yea, though it be nothing but what God spake in his hearing; what''s next? |
A34747 | — Amphora coepit Institui, currente rota, cur u ● ceu ● exit? |
A89587 | And so in Egypt how long did Gods people mourn there? |

A88993 | The Churches cloathing and her Crown is Light and Truth: Can any true- borne Childe of the Church account that his shame which is his Mothers glorie? |
A88993 | The Lord knoweth the way of the Righteous, how? |
A88993 | The yong man also seemed willing to buy, What good thing shall I doe that I may have eternall life? |
A88993 | Thirdly, Of whom must we buy Truth? |
A88993 | This is a most sweet and precious truth: wouldst thou buy it? |

A88993 | how hath it dissolved the severall Mineralls whereof that Image was composed, the gold, silver, brasse, and iron? |
A88993 | saith the King, Art thou made of the Kings Councell? |
A88993 | so on our part, he that sincerely giveth up himselfe to the Lord, to be wholly his, how can he thinke any thing too dear when the Lord requireth it? |
A88993 | what shall I give to buy truth? |
A88993 | why did not the young man give up his possessions upon Christs demand? |
A71091 | 3. do violence to no man,& c. but hath he and the rest of his Brethren done so? |
A71091 | 7. that Curses are Edge tooles and dangerous to be medled withall, why then will he put them into their hands, whom he saies are as the Lord? |
A71091 | And do not you think( say they) if the Papists prevaile but they will destroy all us? |
A71091 | And to whom must he answer trow ye? |
A71091 | And whereas''t is said, where hath there been such cruelty acted yet upon Women and Children? |
A71091 | But did ever any one read, or heare, or by experience see, any man that was yet a stranger to God, or to Religion, converted by these meanes? |
A71091 | But how shall we know who they are? |
A71091 | But is it seasonable therefore to curse them? |
A71091 | But perhaps some will say, what bloudy actions have yet been done, by any of that side, which have not been out done by the Cavaliers? |
A71091 | But what( said they) do you think, that Kings alone, without the help of the people shall pull her downe? |
A71091 | But why not to fight? |
A71091 | For was it not to fight? |
A71091 | Hath not this Kingdome been the Asylum, to the persecuted flock of Christ, when they have fled out of all the neighbour Nations? |
A71091 | Have you no Bowells left in you towards your bleeding Mother, your native Country? |

A71091 | How many of these have they most wickedly defaced, most brutishly defiled, and most irreligiously throwne downe to the ground? |
A71091 | How strangely hath the thirst of bloud put out the Eyes both of grace and nature in you? |
A71091 | Imcomplete? |
A71091 | So me thinke, should every Gentleman, every rich man say, shall I go in Skarlet while my Soveraigne goes in Sackcloth? |
A71091 | Why are they cursed? |
A71091 | Will that make them mind their owne things lesse and Christs more? |
A71091 | Yea, but( indeed) some will say here lies the difficulty: how shall we know in these distractions, on which ● ide is the Church and People of God? |
A71091 | and where can it be shewn, that they have exercised that cruelty upon little Children? |
A71091 | did he know they would prove a Curse, and doth he dyet them accordingly? |
A71091 | do you think they fight for the Protestant Religion? |
A71091 | doth not the Scripture inhibit Ministers to be stirrers up of others to strife and ● ontention, as well as to be strikers themselves? |
A71091 | hath not the Bosome of our Religious Soveraigne, been alwayes open to receive them? |

A71091 | nay which of them,( as M. Marshall himselfe hath here done) did ever stirre up to the acting of such things? |
A71091 | or that all men looke with his Eyes, and have captivated their faith and judgements to the censure of the Parliament, as himselfe hath done? |
A71091 | ought they not to be perswaders to Peace as well as keepers of it? |
A71091 | shall I be richly clad, while my Soveraigne is meanely attired? |
A71091 | shall I have gold in my Chests while my good Soveraigne wants it to buy food, to put in to his Souldiers bellies? |
A71091 | was it because fighting is unlawfull for a Minister of the Gospell to practise? |
A71091 | what barbarousnesse or inhumanity in this kind, have they at any time perpetrated? |
A71091 | what blessings could they have wished from an indulgent Father, which have not been tendred them by the King? |
A71091 | what can you imagine will be the conclusion of these courses? |
A71091 | what offences have our tender Infants done, that they should deserve this intended Butchery? |

A71091 | whence that captivity of peaceable men, because supposed rich or Loyall? |
A71091 | whence that lamentable crying of desolate women and children, exposed to nakednesse, hunger and all misery? |
A71091 | whence then is this complaining in our streets, of Houses, Horses, and Men Plundered by the Parliament side? |
A71091 | whence these high abuses by Souldiers of that party to Ministers and Churches? |
A71091 | whose Children have they murdered? |
A71091 | whose bones have they broken? |
A71091 | why hath he not at least stopped them in the Commission of these things? |
A71091 | why then, is not exasperateing and provoking others to fight unlawfull too? |
A71091 | will Bloud yeeld you benefit? |
A71091 | will Warre afford you wealth? |
A71091 | will that which you make yours by violence, dwell long with you? |
A89280 | 11 Then God said unto him, Who hath made thee so wise, that thou shouldst know that thou art naked, or wantest any covering? |

A89280 | But now to recite the very words of the Prophet, What hast thou to do with the way of Egypt, to drink the waters of Sihor? |
A89280 | But the will of man assisted by God, as Adam''s was, if it be sincere, what can it not doe? |

A67572 | Hast thou returned him that being which he hath given thee, and so been even with him in a form of words, though that come infinitely short indeed? |
A67572 | Hast thou sacrificed thy self for his benefit, or abased thy selffor his commodity? |
A67572 | Have not all these things come upon us, the men of this Generation? |
A67572 | Have we no reason at all to apprehend the approach of a General Judgment, either upon the World, or upon our sinful Nation? |
A67572 | He stands pausing and hoesitating, as he did once before, O Ephraim, how shall I give thee up, O Ephraim? |
A67572 | How art thou provided to reply? |
A67572 | How do our thoughts flote upon our brains, and we know neither whence they come, nor what becomes of them? |
A67572 | How many roving fancies present themselves unto us in a moment; and how many sudden and imperfect Complacencies and distasts are raised by them? |

A67572 | Is it because we are so far gone in our arrears that it is to no purpose to call these things into our remembrance? |
A67572 | Is it because we never consider Who it is before whom we must appear? |
A67572 | Is it weakness, is it a vain and superstitious scrupulosity to call these things to our remembrance? |
A67572 | Is this then the evasion? |
A67572 | May we not therefore give up our selves to the torments of our hearts, and surrender up our souls unto Despair? |
A67572 | Nay, that which must come, let it come, and what is a few days respite to Eternity? |
A67572 | O England, How shall I give thee up, O England? |
A67572 | O that''s impossible, Whether shall we goe then from his presence: shall we call to the Mountains to fall upon us? |
A67572 | Or lastly, Canst thou stoutly endure the sentence of condemnation? |

A67572 | or canst thou shew as much for him? |
A67572 | or that we our selves shall be brought to Judgment? |
A67572 | or what things will be charged on our own account? |

A90268 | But you will say; how shall we enquire of God? |
A90268 | Doth he not fill heaven and earth? |
A90268 | First, That we may abide with God, this is indispensably required? |
A90268 | For the words themselves, the first thing proposed to be inquired into for their explanation is this; what it is for God to be with a people? |

A90268 | Have you any Affair that lies before you that is good, and honest, but yet dreadful, difficult, entangled? |
A90268 | He shall die; he shall be cut off: what is the reason of this diversity? |
A90268 | How does he make it his glory to turne all their Consultations into folly? |
A90268 | How many wicked nations are there in the world, that for a long season, have received blessings( as it were) and successe in their undertakings? |
A90268 | How often did the Israelites attempt things without his direction? |
A90268 | If God be with us, who shall be against us? |
A90268 | In the last Assembly of Parliament, How many had no less real intentions to be at worke for God, than now? |
A90268 | Is he a God at hand only, and not afar off, as to the ends of the Earth? |
A90268 | Is the Lord amongst them by his special presence? |
A90268 | Is this all indeed that is required, that we may have the special presence of God with us for ever? |
A90268 | It is Christ that is our Peace, even in outward troubles? |
A90268 | Look on this presence of God as your main concernment? |
A90268 | O how inexcusable shall we be, if we neglect these termes? |
A90268 | Our High Priest is the Angel of Gods Presence, the mighty Counsellor, the power, and eternall wisedome of God himself? |
A90268 | Secondly, What is a Peoples abiding with God? |
A90268 | Should these things busie, or distract you; doth the Issue of the business in hand, depend on the thoughts of these men? |

A90268 | With what contempt doth God speake of the wisedome, and Counsells of the sonnes of men, when they will adhere unto them? |
A90268 | Would God now have them pass on, and engage? |
A90268 | Would you then be with God? |
A90268 | and to make them erre in their wayes, like a drunken man? |
A90268 | and where is he? |
A90268 | did he despond? |
A90268 | did he give over? |
A90268 | have these things indeed any influence at all into the determination of this Controversie? |
A90268 | how doth he bid them take Counsell together, when he intends to destroy them? |
A90268 | how just will be our ruine? |
A90268 | how often did he breake in upon them to their woe and sorrow? |

A55228 | Ah Lord, they say of me, Doth not he speak parables? |
A55228 | And I said, Hear, I pray you, O heads of Iacob, and ye Princes of the house of Israel: Is it not for you to know Iudgment? |

A55228 | And the author of the Vulgar Latin seems to take it as founding,( as the Tugurine version hath it) Is it not said by the house of Iacob? |
A55228 | And what is here to exclude him more then them? |
A55228 | And what then have we farther to be sollicitous about in this matter? |
A55228 | And why may not these words be understood so too, i. e. figuratively? |
A55228 | Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked, and the scant measure that is abominable? |

A55228 | But do we therefore say, that Man, or flesh and blood was from everlasting, or eternal? |
A55228 | But then, what ground is there to add the negative I were not? |
A55228 | But what had those of the ten Tribes to do with the Temple? |

A55228 | Some thus, Is this said among you, O house of Iacob? |
A55228 | That which she saith to her enemy is, Rejoice not against me? |
A55228 | The Ancient M. S. Arab version, which we cited, renders the whole thus, It is said among the house of Iacob, Is the power of the Lord shorned? |
A55228 | The Chaldee paraphraseth the former part of the verse, what good have I said that I would do to thee, and have not done it? |

A85763 | And therefore for these reasons and many more, should not we open to him when he comes and knocks at our dores? |
A85763 | But here a question may be demanded, to wit, whether the Church, or any godly soul therein, be ever without Christ? |
A85763 | But how and by whom? |
A85763 | But how comes it, that she so boldly and familiarly talkes with Christ,( let him kisse me)? |
A85763 | But if faith be one of her eyes( may some say) which is the other? |
A85763 | But it may be asked, why she speaks of the beams and rafters, and not of the walls of this house? |
A85763 | But seeing it is the church which makes this request, that He would show her where He feeds, what flock does he feed beside His Church? |
A85763 | But seeing, v. 8. he had already praised her from her beauty, why repeats he it here? |
A85763 | But some may say, does not Christ alwais dwell in the hearts of the regenerate, how is it then that he calles and knocks to let him in? |
A85763 | But we must remarke: When are these Jewels and chaines put upon her cheeks and neck? |
A85763 | But why is this redoubled,( thou hast ravisht my heart?) |
A85763 | But why saith Christ, Take us the foxes, and not simply, ● ake the foxes, or particularly take me the foxes, but in common, take us the foxes? |
A85763 | But why speakes he of loves in the plurall number? |
A85763 | But, without naming him, Why saies she, let him kisse me? |
A85763 | Concerning the care that she has of her little sister, saying, what shall we do for her? |
A85763 | Dost thou not care that we perish?) |
A85763 | Doth Christ display his love both to us, and for so many comfortable ends and uses over us? |
A85763 | Ephraim is brought in, saying, What have I to do any more with Idols? |
A85763 | How beautifull are thy feet with shoos O prince''s daughter? |
A85763 | I have put off my coat, how shall I put it on? |
A85763 | I have washed my feet, how shall I desile them? |
A85763 | Is Christ our King? |
A85763 | Is not she His only flock? |
A85763 | Last of all, seeing the Church speaks here, how saies she,( Our house) being her self God''s house? |
A85763 | Last of all, to whom, or to whose taste is this fruit sweet? |
A85763 | O thou fairest amongst women? |
A85763 | She had also washed her feet, and how should she defile them again? |
A85763 | Should not fervour of affection have with it humility of reverence? |
A85763 | Should such a man as I flee? |
A85763 | Tell me( O thou whom my soul loveth,) where thou feedest? |
A85763 | The care that she has of her, saying, What shall we do for our sister in the day that she shal be spoken for? |
A85763 | The third thing is, vvho brought her in, and how is he styled? |
A85763 | The watchmen that go about the city found me, to whom I said, Saw ye him whom my soul loveth? |
A85763 | This Spikenard is called hers, 1. by donation, as it is said quid habes, quod non accepisti? |
A85763 | This is her beloved( she sayes) and this is her friend, of whom the daughters of Jerusalem asked, what was he more then another beloved? |
A85763 | We have a little sister, and she hath no breasts, what shall we do for our sister in the day when she shall be spoken for? |
A85763 | What is thy Beloved more than another beloved, O thou fairest amongst women? |
A85763 | What other flock is this then, whose steps she must trace to find Him, and where he feeds? |
A85763 | What will ye see in the Shulamite? |
A85763 | Where thou makest thy Flock to rest at Noone? |
A85763 | Whereas she sayes, What shall we do? |
A85763 | [ For why should I be?] |
A85763 | and who would not open to such? |
A85763 | fair as the Moon, clear as the Sun, and terrible as an army with Banners? |
A85763 | for why should I be as one that turneth aside by the flocks of thy Companions? |
A85763 | or what duties were we able to perform, to his glory or our good, without him? |
A85763 | or what hast thou but that which thou hast received? |
A85763 | shall tribulation, or distresse, or persecution, or famine, or nakednesse, or perill, or sword? |
A85763 | what is thy beloved more than another beloved, that thou dost so charge us? |
A85763 | whither is thy well- beloved turned aside, that we may seek him with thee? |
A85763 | without which, what would become of us? |
A90269 | 34. or according to the minde of God? |
A90269 | Ah foolish people and unwise, doe we thus require the Lord? |
A90269 | And is it likely that we can gather any Resolution from them? |
A90269 | Aske now the people of God in this nation, I say or any of them, one, or more, at any time? |
A90269 | Doth God at any time prosper an evill or a wicked Nation? |
A90269 | Doth he breake, ruine and destroy them, as sooner or latter he will leave them, neither roote nor branch? |
A90269 | Even all nations shall say, wherefore hath the Lord done thus unto this Land? |
A90269 | Have you an Answer in readinesse? |
A90269 | Is it not cleare, that they are divided among themselves? |
A90269 | Make this worke of God your pole- star, that you may steere and guide your course by it? |
A90269 | May not some enquiry of the like nature be made of the people of God amongst us? |
A90269 | On whom are the eies of this Nation and of those round about? |
A90269 | Shall we therfore chuse us a Captain,& goe down again into Egypt? |
A90269 | Suppose now a man, or men, should come and aske of you, what God hath done in these Nations? |
A90269 | That being attempted in many places,& proveing abortive, is here accomplished? |
A90269 | That is a season wherein great inquiry will be made about those things; what shall one then answer? |
A90269 | The septuagint render these words,{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}; the Kings of the Nations, what shall they say? |
A90269 | What SHALL one: what shall, or what ought? |
A90269 | What answer then should we give to Enquirers? |
A90269 | What is the profession we make? |
A90269 | What is the work that is so fam''d abroad, and spoken of throughout the World? |
A90269 | What is this you wil say? |
A90269 | What shall ONE? |
A90269 | What shall one THEN? |
A90269 | What shall one answer them? |
A90269 | What shall one then answer the Messengers of the Nation? |
A90269 | What shall they doe? |
A90269 | Wherefore doe they enquire of your wellfaire, of your state and condition, of your affaires? |
A90269 | Who( J say) not intangled with one prejudicate ingagement or other, may not se this with halfe an eye? |
A90269 | an Anti- christian Nation? |
A90269 | doth God take care for Oxen? |
A90269 | doth not the greatest danger of our own miscarriage lye in this? |
A90269 | from whom are the Expectations of men? |
A90269 | hath he delight in the prosperity of his Enemies? |
A90269 | have we been imposed on in the ways of God, by men ignorant of them? |
A90269 | how many glorious Appearances have I seen, of which I said under the shadow hereof, shall we live among the heathen? |
A90269 | in this case,{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}; what shall they answer, or say? |
A90269 | is it a power over other mens persons, or our owne lusts? |
A90269 | is it for their owne sakes? |
A90269 | is it not his Glory? |
A90269 | is it that they love you, that they desire your prosperity, that they would have you an established Nation? |
A90269 | should the disposall of things be according to his will, or ours? |
A90269 | to whom should we goe to enquire what God hath done in this Nation, what he is doing, what are the effects of his power, if not of you? |
A90269 | what he hath wrought, and effected? |
A90269 | what is brought forth? |
A90269 | what is it their duty to doe or to say? |
A90269 | who hath the chiefest interest in,& right unto the things contended about? |
A90269 | who hath the most wisedome to order things aright, he or we? |
A90269 | who sees what will be the event of all things, hee or we? |
A90269 | whose End is to be obtain''d in the issue of all? |
A20736 | 13, He that lendeth vpon vsurie, or taketh increase, shall he liue saith the Lord? |
A20736 | 26, 27, Be not of them which are sureties for debts; if thou hastnothing to pay, why should he( namely thy creditor) take thy bed from vnder thee? |
A20736 | 36. should we not sinne to gaine the whole world, and shall we be readie to sinne for euery trifle in the world? |
A20736 | Againe, doth the holy ghost call any blessed, that are not heires of the kingdome of heauen? |
A20736 | All men desire to rest in the holy mountain of God: but how few behaue thēselues as pilgrims in his Tabernacle? |
A20736 | All this I graunt: what then? |
A20736 | And in the place before cited, shall I not visit them for these things, saith the Lord? |
A20736 | And our Sauiour Christ, What will it profit a man, if he shall gaine the whole world and loose his owne soule? |
A20736 | And to the same purpose, Bildad the Shuhite, Can arush( saith he) grow without mire, or can the grasse grow without water? |
A20736 | And what is this successiue interest I pray you? |
A20736 | And what reason is it that when he which beareth all the charge and hazard, receiueth scarce fiue pounds a yeare, he should allow thee ten? |
A20736 | And whereof is the hinderance which he sustaineth? |
A20736 | And why seest thou the mote that is in thy brothers eye, and behold a beame is in thine owne eye? |
A20736 | And why? |
A20736 | Are we such pilgrims as indeed desire to be in our countrey? |
A20736 | Are we wayfaring men in this life? |
A20736 | Are wee pilgrims, liuing( as it were) exiled from our celestiall countrey and heauenly father? |
A20736 | As our Sauiour saith, by their fruits you shall know them, do men gather grapes of thornes, or ● igges of thistels? |
A20736 | As the Prophet Ieremie sayth, The heart is deceitfull and wicked aboue all things: who can know it? |
A20736 | But be it so: How wouldest thou haue imployed it? |
A20736 | But how is that consequence proued? |
A20736 | But how was it permitted towards the stranger? |
A20736 | But if you aske, whither he ought to auoid, who can not shunne both, but may escape the one? |
A20736 | But may a man therefore with a good conscience lend vpon vsurie? |
A20736 | But say they, what if our owne or our brothers life being endangered, might be redeemed by a lie, shall it not be lawfull in that case to lie? |
A20736 | But some man will say, Is it neuer lawfull for a man to heare another report the faults of his neighbour, being absent? |
A20736 | But what followes? |
A20736 | But what if a man be forced to sweare to that which is against his profit? |
A20736 | But what if a man buy a rent for a certaine and difinit time, as for ten or twentie yeares? |
A20736 | But what if the thing which by oath is promised, be either vnlawfull, or not in our power? |
A20736 | But what is hereof to bee inferred? |
A20736 | But what is lo ● t? |
A20736 | But what sayth Salomon? |
A20736 | But whence ariseth this necessitie? |
A20736 | But whereupon shall this found persuasion be grounded? |
A20736 | But whether should I say is greater, your mallice, or your folly? |
A20736 | But why may not money be let as well as other things? |
A20736 | But why should be gaine with my money, and I haue no part therein? |
A20736 | But why will they not follow some other trade of life? |
A20736 | But why wilt not thou imploy thy mony thy selfe in some honest contract? |
A20736 | But will you heare a mysterie practised in buying? |
A20736 | But will you heare a mysterie? |
A20736 | But you will say, May humane lawes permit such things as be euill? |
A20736 | But you will say: what if a man sustaine losse, is not allowance to be made thereof? |
A20736 | But you will say; what if wicked men bee magistrats or gouernours, are we not to honour them? |
A20736 | But you will say? |
A20736 | By negotiation or traffique? |
A20736 | Canst thou not indeed without thine hinderance forbeare thy money? |
A20736 | Doest thou not walke in sinceritie towards God, and simplicitie towards men, but in hypocrisie and dissimulation? |
A20736 | Doost thou walk vprightly without hypocrisie towards God, without guile towards man? |
A20736 | Doth hee beare any hazard? |
A20736 | Fiftly, Should a richer man occupie a poorer mans stocke, and gaining well thereby, make him none allowance? |
A20736 | First, because it is not onely false, but also vaine and idle: and if of idle words an account must be giuen, how much more of lies? |
A20736 | For as our Sauior sayth, What will it profit a man though he should gaine the whole world, if he loose his owne soule? |
A20736 | For he that shall be saued, doth not put forth his money to vsurie: and he that doth, shall he liue saith the Lord? |
A20736 | For if he be a true Christian, in whom there is no guile, what is hee in whom no simplicitie or plaine dealing is to be found? |
A20736 | For if our hearts be on the earth, how is our treasure in heauen? |
A20736 | For if vsurie of ten in the hundred be lawfull for ten years together, why not for the eleuenth and twelfth,& c. the principall being still forborne? |
A20736 | For if you would haue it concealed indeed, why doe you not trust your owne tongue rather than another mans? |
A20736 | For indeed, what is gained in that which is gotten by sinne? |
A20736 | For indeed, what is 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, that is, couetousnesse, but an vnlawfull desire of hauing more? |
A20736 | For neither must we stand still in this way, neither must we go backe: for if we do so, how shall we come to our iourney''s end? |
A20736 | For what reason is there that another man should gaine by my money, and not make me partaker of his gaine? |
A20736 | For what were this but wilfully to prouoke the Lord, and as it were to dare him to execute his fierce indignation vpon him? |
A20736 | For what would it auaile vs, if with Simon Magus wee bee baptized, and beleeue with a generall faith? |
A20736 | For when D ● uid had demanded, Who shall soiourne in tby Tabernacle, and who shall rest in thy holy hill? |
A20736 | For wherefore hath the Lord elected vs? |
A20736 | For who would not rather borrow things to vse freely, than to take them vpon hire? |
A20736 | For you know who hath said, He that putteth forth to vsurie, or taketh increase, shall he liue? |
A20736 | Forsooth, saith one, this gaine I require for the forbearance of my money? |
A20736 | Hath the partie no great need to borrow? |
A20736 | Hell and destruction are before the Lord, how much more the hearts of the sonnes of men? |
A20736 | Hell and destruction are before the Lord, how much more the hearts of the sonnes of men? |
A20736 | How farre forth is this restitution to be made, that is, of what vsurie, and of how much? |
A20736 | How so? |
A20736 | How then can lending vpon vsurie, though but for once or twice, be lawfull? |
A20736 | If for some great offence, say, What will it profit me to heare that another man is wicked? |
A20736 | If further it be demaunded, What if that which a man promiseth by oath, can not be performed without his losse or hinderance? |
A20736 | If it be euill to be euill, why wilt thou be that which thou wilt not seeme to be? |
A20736 | If therefore none shall dwell in the holy mountaine of God, but such as are speakers of the truth, who then shall be saued? |
A20736 | Is he a prodigall gentleman, or riotous person? |
A20736 | Is he at any cost for the getting of this gaine? |
A20736 | Is it because thou wilt take no paines, nor beare any aduenture, but wilt be sure to prouide for great and certaine gaine with ease? |
A20736 | Is the partie an honest man, and hath need to borrow? |
A20736 | Lastly consider, that of idle words an account is to be made, how much more of malicious and slaunderous words? |
A20736 | Lord, who shall soiourne in thy Tabernacle, who shall dwell in the mountaine of thy holinesse? |
A20736 | May not the merchant lawfully for his wares bought in another countrey for one hundred pounds, require one hundred and ten here? |
A20736 | Might I not as well lend my money for gaine? |
A20736 | Must those that are perfect be of this mind? |
A20736 | No, but he hath elected vs that we should be holy and without blame before him in loue? |
A20736 | Now, if princes, to whom being oppressed with great cares, mirth is most needfull, may not be made merry with lies, who then may? |
A20736 | Or is it credible that those who are carelesse of their owne saluation should be carefull for others, to winne them to Christ? |
A20736 | Or shall not my soule be auenged on such a nation as this? |
A20736 | Quid faenerari? |
A20736 | Quid foenus& Calendarium& vsura, sayth Seneca, nisi humanae cupiditatis extra naturam quaesita nomina? |
A20736 | Secondly, Is it reason that a rich man should withhold any mans money against his will, and make his priuat gaine thereof? |
A20736 | The Lord is neere to them that call vpon him: What to all? |
A20736 | The former part: Lord who shall soiourne in thy Tabernacle? |
A20736 | Thou wilt not lend to the needie, because thou doubtest that what is lent to them will neuer be repaid: But what saith the spirit of God? |
A20736 | To whom? |
A20736 | What is foenus and the Kalender( for so the vsurers debt- booke was called) and vsurie, but names of mens couetousnesse sought out besides nature? |
A20736 | What reason is there that he should receiue a rent for the land bought with my money, and I in the meane time haue none allowance for my money? |
A20736 | What then is the reason of your demanded gaine? |
A20736 | What then will you say, is the truth alwayes to be professed? |
A20736 | What then will you say, ought one rather to cōmit whordome than to make a lye? |
A20736 | What then( will you say) is euerie one bound to lend to euerie one that asketh? |
A20736 | What then, will you say, are the offences of our neighbour so to be buried, as that it is not lawfull for a man to mention them? |
A20736 | When? |
A20736 | Wherefore Pythagoras being demaunded, What that was, in doing whereof, men might especially be like vnto God? |
A20736 | Wherefore doth he regenerate vs by his spirit, and as it were create vs anew? |
A20736 | Wherefore hath he freed vs from the seruitude of sinne? |
A20736 | Why did he beare our sinnes in his body vpon the crosse? |
A20736 | Why doth hee bestow his temporall benefits vpon vs? |
A20736 | Why hath Christ redeemed vs from the hand of our spirituall enemies? |
A20736 | Why then( say I) will you not aduenture with him? |
A20736 | Why therefore doest thou goe to the vsurer, seeing thou hast in thine owne store a remedie against thy necessitie? |
A20736 | Will you heare? |
A20736 | Will you offend in lying against your owne soule, or in treachery against the innocent? |
A20736 | Would it therefore from hence follow, that all buying and selling, all lending and borrowing vpon securitie is vnlawfull? |
A20736 | Would you borrow of them? |
A20736 | Wouldest thou then haue imployed it thy selfe? |
A20736 | Wouldest thou then thriue by vsurie? |
A20736 | Yea but what reason is there that I should susteine hinderance without recompence? |
A20736 | and if so oft, why not for fiue or six times? |
A20736 | and if so, why not for ten or twentie, or for so oft as you will? |
A20736 | and if the thing be euill in it selfe, can the permission justifie the practise of it before God? |
A20736 | and who would buy ware, if he might haue it giuen him? |
A20736 | as I thinke no man can truly denie: and may I not as lawfully in a case of no lesse necessitie promise to the lender after ten in the hundred? |
A20736 | but the Amalekite, but the Amorrhite, but the enemies of the people of God? |
A20736 | for if it were lawfull for once or twice, why not for three or foure times? |
A20736 | if the earth be our countrey, how are we citizens of heauen? |
A20736 | is it not sufficient for him to loose the employment of his labour and skill, vnlesse out of his losse, he also make you againe? |
A20736 | or how can you require that of another, which you can not obtaine from your selfe? |
A20736 | or how could he reprooue them so sharpely, if himselfe were guiltie of the same offence? |
A20736 | or may we thinke that an expresse and multiplied increase of money is to be allowed? |
A20736 | or shall not my soule be auenged on suc ● a nation as this? |
A20736 | or would he alledge his owne practise of vsurie, to persuade them to desist therefrom? |
A20736 | quid, inquit, hominem occidere? |
A20736 | shall I giue my first borne for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sinne of my soule? |
A20736 | shall I not visit them for these things saith the Lord? |
A20736 | should be grow rich with another mans hinderance? |
A20736 | that being freed from them we might sinne the more freely? |
A20736 | that is, Lord, by what tokens may a sound Christian and heire of the kingdome of heauen be discerned? |
A20736 | that like well pampered horses we should kicke against our Lord and Maister? |
A20736 | that thoukeepe the Commandements of the Lord, and his ordinances which he commaundeth thee for thy wealth? |
A20736 | that we liuing in sin should not die for them? |
A20736 | that we might be saued howsoeuer we should liue? |
A20736 | that we might haue freedome to sin? |
A20736 | that we should doe nothing our selues? |
A20736 | that which you haue lent, what thank shall you haue? |
A20736 | whether all oaths are to be performed, or not? |
A20736 | will the Lord he pleased with thousands of Rammes, or with ten thousand riuers of oyle? |
A89591 | 13. the Councell or Synedrion had called the Apostles before them, and demanded by what authority, or by what Name they had done this? |
A89591 | A handfull of sheep goe to fight with a whole multitude of Wolves, is there any probability to sense or reason, that they should carry the victory? |
A89591 | And when multitudes followed Christ himselfe, the Pharisees demanded, Doe any of the Rulers, or of the Pharisees beleeve on him? |
A89591 | God hath founded it there; why hath the Bull that strength in his horne? |
A89591 | How shall this bee done? |
A89591 | If any man demand, how live you as a Christian? |
A89591 | If it bee demanded, who? |
A89591 | Is this the great power whereby Christians doe overcome their enemies, a power that comes out of their Mouth? |
A89591 | Now what proportion is there betwixt a mountaine and a worme? |
A89591 | O Lord our God, how excellent is thy Name in all the world? |
A89591 | One in a certaine place testified, What is Man that thou art mindfull of him? |
A89591 | To these babes and sucklings( saith my Text) the Lord hath given strength: Strength, what is that? |
A89591 | Verse of this Psalme, is the key of the whole Psalme, What is man that thou art mindfull of him? |
A89591 | What Creature so simple, weake, or base as a Worme, a creature which no man values, loves, or feares? |
A89591 | What so shiftlesse and unable to defend it selfe, or offend an Enemy, as a Babe or Suckling? |
A89591 | Would ever any man thinke, that all this project and undertaking would not have fallen presently into the dust? |
A89591 | and what are these enemies? |
A89591 | or the son of man, that thou visitest him? |
A89591 | or the sonne of Man that thou visited''st him? |
A89591 | or the sonne of man, that thou shouldest thus visit him? |
A89591 | or what doth their mouth? |
A89591 | their instruments of warre? |
A89591 | what was their furniture? |
A89591 | whether( there being no visible enemy in the Field) it would not bee fittest to disband our present Armies? |
A89591 | why hath Man such strength in his armes? |
A89591 | why rest you not contented with this? |
A89591 | why the Serpent in his sting? |
A89591 | would not all have said of him, as some of the sonnes of Belial did of Saul, and with a great deale of more reason toe, How can this Man ever save us? |
A86360 | ( saith Augustine) are we not Brethren? |
A86360 | 26. Who is on the Lords side? |
A86360 | 5. Who is willing to consecrate his service this day unto the Lord? |
A86360 | Alas how camest thou into these distractions? |
A86360 | Doth the Truth of your Religion appeare in your relations, in the uniformitie of a Gospell conversation? |
A86360 | Doth the word of Truth, the Scepter of righteousnesse beare sway there? |
A86360 | Every one will be euquisitive concerning the commoditie it self: What is this Truth? |
A86360 | Fourthly, What if there were some Evangelicall, Itinerant Preachers, sent abroad upon a publique stocke to enlighten darke Countries? |
A86360 | Hast thou kept the Lords day? |

A02170 | Am I likely to be a meanes for converting of sinners; who have hitherto beene occasion of perverting the godly? |
A02170 | An eye for an eye; a tooth for a tooth; and yet a man may live; but blood for blood, and who can live, unlesse he be a God? |
A02170 | And am I a fit Champion to encounter Monsters? |
A02170 | And how much easier came David to be able to say, I know my sinne? |
A02170 | And how then can sin be committed against any, but against him only, whose Law we transgresse? |
A02170 | And it seemes, as though we were put to our choyce here; whether wee will have sinnes company, or Gods? |
A02170 | And now let flesh and blood tell me, if this be a lesson to be learned without a teacher? |
A02170 | And now, seeing my sins are in number so many, and so great in measure; have I not reason to aske for mercies, of equall proportion? |
A02170 | And now, tha ● wee have bloods enough, to serve for deliverance; how shall wee be able to apply them? |
A02170 | And now, that I have prayed, and offered sacrifice for my selfe; shall I forget my Mother Sion? |
A02170 | And now, that I have the multitude of Gods tender mercies at the heighth; what would I have it to doe? |
A02170 | And what arme of defence, hath Hierusalem to trust to, against the Host of her enemies; but thine onely, O Lord, who art the Lord of Hosts? |
A02170 | And what can be more said for justifying of a sinne; then to say it was done for justifying of God? |
A02170 | And what company then could I hope to have? |
A02170 | And why should I feare, lest hee should take his holy Spirit from mee? |
A02170 | And will I lose my part in God, for want of washing? |
A02170 | And wilt thou shed thy blood for me; and not deliver me from b ● d? |
A02170 | And would any man foule his fingers, to touch so foule a thing as my sin; if hee did not love exceedingly? |
A02170 | And yet stay; why should I put God to this trouble of washing me at all? |
A02170 | Are they not all one holy Ghost; but divers operations? |
A02170 | But am I a fit man, to teach thy waies to the wicked; who have walked, all my life long, in the waies of wickednesse? |
A02170 | But am I well advised, in praying God, to turne away his face from my sinnes? |
A02170 | But are not my sins themselves blots? |
A02170 | But can it properly be said, that God did ever create in me, a cleane heart before? |
A02170 | But can wee thinke God to be so indifferent; that he will accept of a broken heart? |
A02170 | But did not the washing I had before, make me cleane; and what neede then, of any more cleansing? |
A02170 | But doe I well, to prescribe to God, with what hee shall purge mee; as though I knew, all Gods Medicines as well as himselfe? |
A02170 | But had David ever any returne of this Petition? |
A02170 | But hath God then, a multitude of Mercies, whereof some be greater, and some be lesser? |
A02170 | But hath not David a defence for it here; and that a very just one? |
A02170 | But how can David say, I know my sins; and yet in another place, said, Forgive me my secret sinnes? |
A02170 | But how can God cast mee off from his presence, though hee would: Is not God, every where? |
A02170 | But how can God restore that, which hee tooke not away? |
A02170 | But how can wee answer this to God? |
A02170 | But how is this possible? |
A02170 | But how loud will the singing be, when not onely Repentance sings; but Joy also, which is a loud singer, shall joyne in consort, and sing with her? |
A02170 | But how should David come to be so foule? |
A02170 | But i ● there not matter here to make us at a stand? |
A02170 | But if God turne away his face from my sins; how shall he seee, to blot them out? |
A02170 | But if Repentance be so hard a lesson to learne; how can David be so confident of his teaching, to say, that sinners shall be converted by it? |
A02170 | But is David then the only Phoenix in this kinde? |
A02170 | But is it not that Gods threatning, is ever with condition? |
A02170 | But is it not, that thy Wisedome, O God, is so transcendent, that thou canst easily abstract the sinner from the sinne? |
A02170 | But is it not, that wee are all in this, the children of Adam? |
A02170 | But is my sinne so pleasing a prospect; that I should need to feare, lest God should stand looking upon it? |
A02170 | But is not this an indignity, to the great Majestie of God? |
A02170 | But is not this to make God a cruell God; to make him delight, in broken hearts; as though hee tooke no joy, but in our sorrowing? |
A02170 | But is not this, a Disorder in praying; to pray for that, for which we should rather give thankes? |
A02170 | But is there any hope, that this sin of blood, may ever be remitted? |
A02170 | But may we not wonder at David; how hee dares speake thus to God: Deliver mee from blood; and my tongue shall sing of thy Righteousnesse? |
A02170 | But say it be possible; yet what need is there of so great a whitenesse, as to be whiter than snow? |
A02170 | But say, O my soule; how came thy bones to be broken? |
A02170 | But shall I put God to so meane a worke; to be a builder of walls? |
A02170 | But what Righteousnesse is in this; to suffer a righteous person to be murthered; and then to set the murtherer free? |
A02170 | But what am I the better, that thou turne away thy face from my sin; if my sin continue, and remaine upon me still? |
A02170 | But what blood did hee shed unlawfully? |
A02170 | But what is this to us, that, his bones be not broken, if ours be? |
A02170 | But what more good will a right spirit doe, when it is renued; than it did before, when it was first given? |
A02170 | But what mysterie is it, that David intends here, by his triplicity of Spirits? |
A02170 | But what neede David pray God, to deliver him from blood- guiltinesse? |
A02170 | But what safety is it to me, that God turne away his face; if his eares stand open? |
A02170 | But what though God doe wash us? |
A02170 | But why am I partiall towards my Parents; and charge my poore Mother with conceiving mee in sinne; but let my Father passe without blame? |
A02170 | But why am I so ● arenest for restoring? |
A02170 | But why is David so preposterous in making his sute? |
A02170 | But why is it said; Make mee to heare of joy and gladnesse; and not said rather; Make mee to feele joy and gladnesse? |
A02170 | But why should David make it so great a matter, to say, I know my sinne; as though a man could commit a sinne, and not know it? |
A02170 | But why should David pray to be delivered from bloods; as the words indeede are? |
A02170 | But why should David speake so superfluously? |
A02170 | But why should I feare, least God should cast me off from his presence? |
A02170 | But why then with Hysop; and not with Ellebor, or Scammony tather? |
A02170 | But yet, what good will the knowing, or the acknowledging my sinne doe me; if I let it slip from my heart, as soone as it is off my tongue? |
A02170 | But, did not God, create in me a cleane heart once already? |
A02170 | Can I be safe, if Hierusalem be in danger? |
A02170 | Can I prosper, if my Sion suffer? |
A02170 | Can cleansing mee, be without doing a Miracle? |
A02170 | Can my daily Infirmities alien thy Love? |
A02170 | Can there be a Patron so powerfull as Thou? |
A02170 | Can there be a Supplyant, so dejected as my selfe? |
A02170 | Can thy Love aliened, turne away thy Mercy? |
A02170 | Can we drinke in a broken Glasse? |
A02170 | David was happy, that had a Nathan by whom to heare it: but by whom may wee have hope to heare it? |
A02170 | Did God ever heare it, or grant it? |
A02170 | Did not sinne, at least the Authour of sin, heare thy voyce, when thou saidst, Encrease and multiply? |
A02170 | Dost Thou Draw mee, and shall I draw backe? |
A02170 | Dost Thou Invite mee, and shall I not Come? |
A02170 | Doth any thing grow so fast as a weede? |
A02170 | For a man condemned for blood, to be delivered from blood? |
A02170 | For is it not Gods great mercy to us all, that wee be not all consumed? |
A02170 | For it is not the bold Nature of sinne, to be alwaies pressing into thy sight; and as it were, forcing thee to see it, whether thou wilt or no? |
A02170 | For what blood had hee shed? |
A02170 | For what is it, to build the walls of Hierusalem; but to defend Hierusalem from her enemies? |
A02170 | For why shouldst thou aske, where I am; but that thou canst not see, where I am? |
A02170 | For, am I not so wholly over- spread with sinne; that if he turne away his face from my sinne; he must needes turne it away from me too? |
A02170 | For, can I charge God, with the taking away the joy of his salvation from mee? |
A02170 | For, can washing be without touching? |
A02170 | For, doe wee thinke hee could say it, as soone as hee had committed it? |
A02170 | For, from others I could hide it, and did conceale it; But what can be hidden from thy All- seeing Eye? |
A02170 | For, if hee know them; how be they secret? |
A02170 | For, is it not subject to all sudden surprises? |
A02170 | For, is not Sion, the common Mother of us all? |
A02170 | For, say It was Pride? |
A02170 | For, was it not so in Ninive? |
A02170 | For, were it not better to feele joy; than onely to heare of joy? |
A02170 | For, what is Sion, but a Sanctuary for sacrifices? |
A02170 | For, what is sinne, but a transgression of Gods Law? |
A02170 | For, where can I finde out any, that will shed his blood for me? |
A02170 | God forbid, thou shouldst ever say to me, as thou didst once to our first Parent; Adam, Where art thou? |
A02170 | Hast thou Mercy, and wilt thou not shew it? |
A02170 | Hast thou shewed Mercy to so many, that thou hast not Mercy left for me also? |
A02170 | How should I not be able, when Thou Drawest mee to it? |
A02170 | How should I not be able, when weaknesse gives mee strength? |
A02170 | If having once acknowledged it, I cast it behinde mee, and thinke no more of it? |
A02170 | If it prospered not at the first planting; what assurance of prospering at the second? |
A02170 | If thou take thy holy Spirit from me; what spirit will be left mee, but a spirit of errour? |
A02170 | If thou, O God, shouldst cast me off from thy presence; whom could I hope, to have present with mee? |
A02170 | If thy Mercy be Infinite, it must extend to all; and how extends it to all, if not to me? |
A02170 | Indeed, when Kings become Schoolemasters, no marvell, if sinners become converts: For, who knowes not the force of Regis ad exemplum? |
A02170 | Is a thing that is broken, good for any thing? |
A02170 | Is it not, that they are all recollected; and put into ● hat cup, of which hee said; Drinke yee all of this? |
A02170 | Is not his Mercv, as himselfe is, onely One and simplicissimus? |
A02170 | Is not his delight amongst the children of men? |
A02170 | Is not thy Mercy over all thy Works; and am not I the worke of thy Hands? |
A02170 | Is the breaking of bones, the gentle purging that was talk''d of? |
A02170 | It may be thought severity in God, to cast Adam out of Paradise, for only One sin: But was Adams sin, but onely One? |
A02170 | Lies it not open to all Hostile invasions? |
A02170 | No pleasure, but in our tormenting? |
A02170 | O Lord, What couldst thou ever looke for at my hands, but onely sinne? |
A02170 | O Lord, what am I, but as a filthy ragge before thee? |
A02170 | O glorious God; what fitter worke for thy Allmighty Power? |
A02170 | O great God, into how many severall formes of ossi ● tance, doe wee miserable sinners, diversifie thy glorious Majesty? |
A02170 | Of whom then, is it fitter, to aske for Mercy; than of Thee, O God, who art the God of Mercy? |
A02170 | Or is it indeed, that he useth divers words, to shew that he askes forgivenesse for all his sinnes, by what name or title soever they be called? |
A02170 | Or is it lastly, that I justly say, Against thee onely have I sinned; because in thy sight onely I have done it? |
A02170 | Or is it, that hee makes three sutes for three spirits; as intending to every person, in the Deity, one? |
A02170 | Or is it, that in sinne there is both a staine, and a gu lt? |
A02170 | Or is it, that the severall respects of relation in Vriah; made his blood, as so many severall bloods, in Gods account? |
A02170 | Or is it, that wee may justly say? |
A02170 | Or is it, the Bonus genius of Repentance; that is never without care; and therefore searcheth all corners? |
A02170 | Or wilt thou shew it to others, and not to me? |
A02170 | Or, can we leane upon a broken staffe? |
A02170 | Say it was Curiositie; hath not Curiosity, more Eyes than Argus had? |
A02170 | Say it was Disobedience? |
A02170 | Say it was Gluttony? |
A02170 | Shall I forget the glorious City Hierusalem; whereof I am a member; and a Ci ● izen? |
A02170 | That thou canst not lay so heavie a doome upon mee, which I have not deserved? |
A02170 | The more Mercy thou shewest, the more is thine Honour; and wilt thou not doe that which is most for thine Honour? |
A02170 | Thou hast indeed, laid a sure foundation in Hierusalem; but what is a foundation, if there be no walls reared? |
A02170 | Thy Mercy is Infinite, or none at all; for all thou art is Infinite; and wilt thou by shewing thy Mercy, lesse; shew thy selfe to be Mercilesse? |
A02170 | Thy holy Spirit is the Comforter; and wilt thou leave mee Disconsolate, in my manifold miseries? |
A02170 | Thy holy Spirit is the Directour; and wilt thou leave mee, without a Guide, in the most dangerous passages of this wicked world? |
A02170 | Thy holy Spirit, is the sanctifier; and wilt thou leave me to impiety and prophanenesse? |
A02170 | Thy praise; but for what? |
A02170 | To pray God, to wash away his sinnes; before he make his confession, and tell what his sinnes be? |
A02170 | Vp on mee? |
A02170 | Vpon my repentance? |
A02170 | Vse two words, when one would serve? |
A02170 | Was it not so to Hezekiah? |
A02170 | Wee say, there are no miracles now adaies in the world; and can there be a greater wonder than this; that a man should know sinne, and yet commit it? |
A02170 | What could Ellebore or Scammony have done more? |
A02170 | What good, to have a right spirit renued; and thy holy Spiri ● to be taken away? |
A02170 | What goodnesse ever was there in mee, that thou shouldst love mee? |
A02170 | When Naaman was cured of his leprosie, by washing in Iordan; did God then wash him; or did Naaman wash himselfe? |
A02170 | When wee should rather give thankes for them, which wee have so continually? |
A02170 | Who am I, but the man by the high way side, lying bound and wounded? |
A02170 | Why should I not Dare, when Thou Invitest me to it? |
A02170 | Wilt thou pay a Ransome for me; and let me be a Captive still? |
A02170 | Wilt thou pay so dearely for a thing, and not take it, when thou hast done? |
A02170 | Yet my sinnes make mee, that I can not but feare; for why should hee not cast me out of his sight; who hath wrought so much wickednesse in his sight? |
A02170 | a spirit of despaire? |
A02170 | a spirit of uncleannesse? |
A02170 | a ● d who is able to build upon it; but thou, O God, the great Builder of the World, who with thy onely Word, didst buil ● the W ●? |
A02170 | and am not I somewhere? |
A02170 | and am not I, one of that Generation? |
A02170 | and canst thou for pitty, leave me a prey, to such outragious spirits? |
A02170 | and for whom, Is it fitter, to aske for Mercy, than for mee, who am a creature of Misery? |
A02170 | and how can blots be blotted out? |
A02170 | and how can it be, thou shouldst not see, where I am, but that thou canst not see mee, for sinne? |
A02170 | and how can it tarry with mee, if I tarry not with him? |
A02170 | and how can wee offer thee, the sacrifice, of thankesgiving for our fafety; if wee can not offer our sacrifices in safety? |
A02170 | and how shall I more keepe it, being restored; than I kept it before, being enjoyed? |
A02170 | and if I could finde one willing; where can I find one able? |
A02170 | and if I so enjoy it, as still feare to lose it; what joy can there be in such enjoying? |
A02170 | and if ever Joy sung, it will sing now: For what geater joy; than for a bond- man to be set at liberty? |
A02170 | and if they be secret, how doth he know them? |
A02170 | and is he one, that will give a thing, and then take it away againe? |
A02170 | and is there any so very a weede as finne? |
A02170 | and must I not then, be needs where he is, and in his presence? |
A02170 | and not be cleansed from that for which hee is washed? |
A02170 | and so, just cause of praying to be delivered from bloods? |
A02170 | and so, wee should lose the end of Sion, in the midst of Sion? |
A02170 | and then, in what horrour of darknesse should I be left? |
A02170 | and what error can there be, in thy being severe, when the greatnesse of my fault is a Iustification of severity? |
A02170 | and what hope is there, if he create in me, a new cleane heart; but that it will grow as foule, as this I now have? |
A02170 | and what safety; if there be no walls to defend us? |
A02170 | and what should his song be of? |
A02170 | and which is worse; I to prescribe, and he to minister? |
A02170 | are wee sure his washing will alwaies cleanse us? |
A02170 | as if thou should''st supply mee with props, and take away foundations? |
A02170 | as now I am? |
A02170 | as though Adam could eate of the forbidden fruit, and not know hee had eaten it? |
A02170 | as though he thought, he might commit a wilfull murther; and then have his pardon of God, for a song? |
A02170 | but is it not, that a right spirit, in a created heart, may stand firme; though in a made heart, it gave ground and failed? |
A02170 | but what foulenesse could hee take from her, who came but then, newly out of her Bathe? |
A02170 | for seeing it can not more truely be said, that I have sinne, than that I am sinne; what is it now to cleanse mee, but even laterem lavare? |
A02170 | for what good will restoring doe mee, if I can not keepe it, when I have it? |
A02170 | for, if wee be cleansed, what matter is it, whether it be by washing or no? |
A02170 | for, what doe my grievous sinnes but grieve it? |
A02170 | hath it not beene growing ever since I was borne; and can so fast growing, in so long growing, make lesse than a Monster? |
A02170 | hath not Disobedience, more faults than Absolon had? |
A02170 | hath not Gluttony more dishes than Dives had? |
A02170 | hath not Pride more branches than a Tree hath? |
A02170 | hath this beene the worke of Gods Hysop? |
A02170 | if this be the condition, What am I the neere? |
A02170 | should know the foulenesse of sinne; and yet lie wallowing in it? |
A02170 | should know the horrour of sinne; and yet runne head- long into it? |
A02170 | therefore sinned, that God might be justified? |
A02170 | to pray for a multitude of great mercies, as though we had them not already? |
A02170 | was it by conversing with Bathsheba? |
A02170 | was it not hee, that gave it mee at first? |
A02170 | we put our meanest servants to wash our clothes, and will we put God to so meane an office, to be a Launderer of sinnes? |
A02170 | what floatings betweene feare and hope? |
A02170 | what goodnesse is there? |
A02170 | what hope is there left mee, of ever comming into thy presence againe? |
A02170 | what qualmes have these beene? |
A02170 | what sinne can be thought off; so unpardonable? |
A02170 | which was never counted lesse, than either a labour lost, or a miracle wrought: and can any doe mira ● les, but hee, whose power is unlimited? |
A02170 | why should he let his holy Spirit stay there, where it is so much grieved? |

A64987 | 10. Who shall lay any thing to your charge, when God hath justified you? |

A64987 | And if the skirts of England were turned up, what filthiness would there appear under them? |

A64987 | Do you know whom you serve? |
A64987 | Hath Sodom and Gomorrah provoked God to destroy them with Fire from Heaven? |
A64987 | Have you been under convictions of Sin? |
A64987 | How happy are those who have made their Peace with God, when some men will not be at peace with them? |
A64987 | How long will Eternity last? |
A64987 | How long will ye slumber in such imminent danger, ye Graceless and Christless persons? |
A64987 | How shall we escape if we neglect so great Salvation? |
A64987 | I beseech you all with the greatest seriousness to examine your selves, whether you be in a state of Nature, or in a state of Grace? |
A64987 | I beseech you examine which of the two ways you are walking in; is it the broad way of Sin and wickedness? |
A64987 | If a short time of misery here on Earth seem long, what will an eternity of misery seem to be in Hell? |
A64987 | Is it desirable to dwell with devouring Fire? |
A64987 | Is not destruction to the wicked, and a strange punishment unto the workers of Iniquity? |
A64987 | Let me therefore exhort you without any delay to come out of the broad way of Sin, It is the way of Hell, and will you proceed any further in it? |
A64987 | Look doest thou not see a horrible deep and large pit filled with horribly burning Fire, and that Fire filled with damned Men and Women? |
A64987 | Need you value then the wrath of men, when you are delivered from the wrath of God? |
A64987 | O what an evil thing and a bitter is it to Sin against God, and hereby to provoke him unto anger? |
A64987 | O whether can we flee to hide us from the wrath of God, and shelter us from his fiery indignation? |
A64987 | Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy Conversation and Godliness? |
A64987 | The spirit of man will sustain his infirmity, but a wounded spirit who can bear? |
A64987 | Thirdly, Abundance of Idleness was the third Sin of Sodom, and when did this Sin more prevail then in our licentious age? |

A64987 | What is more common than this Sin of drunkenness both in City and Countrey? |
A64987 | When awakened by the Earth- quake, and the impression of guilt made by God upon his conscience; Sirs, what shall we do to be saved? |
A64987 | When will Eternity end? |

A85769 | And therefore what sharper punishments may the impenitent, and Satans slaves expect? |
A85769 | And who but he, who at last reconciled him fully to his Father David? |
A85769 | As also her saying, help, O King? |
A85769 | But again, whether he should go? |
A85769 | But how doth he will here, a thing which is impossible, in saying, tell it not, or let it not be told? |
A85769 | By saying in the plurall, and thereby including Joab,( What have I to do with you ye Sonnes of Zerviah? |

A85769 | His idlenesse, Satans cushion and Mother of all vices, and the sinne of Sodom, as it is said? |
A85769 | How comes it to passe that David exercises such cruelty after his Victory against the Ammonites in all their Cities? |
A85769 | How shall they call upon him, in whom they have not believed? |
A85769 | If God be for us, who can be against us? |
A85769 | If it be rendred then according to works, how shall it be esteemed mercy? |
A85769 | In Davids asking the Gibeonites what he should do for them? |

A85769 | The second question, was this omitting of Joabs execution by David lawfull or not? |
A85769 | Then the first interrogation is, shall I go up? |
A85769 | Therefore said he, Saul, Saul why persecutes thou me? |
A85769 | Thou that teaches another, teaches thou not thy self? |
A85769 | Thou therefore that preachest a man should not steal, doest thou steal? |

A26458 | 11 And they say, how doth God know? |
A26458 | 11 Lord, 11 why doest thou suffer thy self thus to be dishonoured, and thy people thus to be destroyed? |
A26458 | 11 Shall thy loving kindness be declared in the grave, or thy faithfulness in destruction? |
A26458 | 11 Who knoweth the power of thine anger? |
A26458 | 11 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? |

A26458 | 13 13 And who are they that have least and are most under hatches? |
A26458 | 13 And to secure them, 13 after he had brought them out from Pharaoh and his host, who pursued them; why? |
A26458 | 13 For thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not thou deliver ● my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living? |
A26458 | 13 Return( O Lord) how long? |
A26458 | 13 Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God? |
A26458 | 13 Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? |
A26458 | 14 14 Lord, what is the cause of this grievous desertion, and seeming rejection of my soul? |
A26458 | 14 Lord, why castest thou off my soul, why hidest thou thy face from me? |
A26458 | 15 15 What cause of rejoycing hath God given to the families in Israel that fear the Lord? |
A26458 | 15 With what power didst thou specially bring Israel out of Egypt? |

A26458 | 17 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God? |
A26458 | 17 Lord, how long wilt thou look on? |
A26458 | 17 What an amazement didst thou then put the Egyptians into on a sudden? |
A26458 | 19 How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment? |
A26458 | 19 Yea, they spake against God: they said, Can God furnish a table in the wilderness? |
A26458 | 2 For thou art the God of my strength, why dost thou cast me off? |
A26458 | 2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily? |

A26458 | 2 O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glorie into shame? |
A26458 | 2 Wherefore should the heathen say, where 〈 ◊ 〉 now their God? |
A26458 | 2 Who can utter the mighty acts of the Lord, who can shew forth all his praise? |
A26458 | 20 20 Lord, wilt thou that art the Judge of all the World not judge righteously? |

A26458 | 20 That implacable enemie of mine, 20 Saul, how doth he still persist to war upon me? |
A26458 | 21 Shall not God search this out? |
A26458 | 23 Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? |
A26458 | 24 Wherefore hidest thou thy face? |
A26458 | 25 Whom have I in heaven but thee? |

A26458 | 4 O Lord God of hosts, how long wilt thou be angrie against the prayer of thy people? |
A26458 | 4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? |
A26458 | 4 Who have said, with our tongue will we prevail, our lips are our own: who is Lord over us? |
A26458 | 46 How long, Lord, wilt thou hide thy self for ever? |
A26458 | 47 Remember how short my time is: wherefore hast thou made all men in vain? |
A26458 | 48 What man is he that liveth and shall not see death? |
A26458 | 49 Lord, where are thy former loving kindnesses, which thou swarest unto David in thy truth? |
A26458 | 5 5 Wilt thou do by us as thou never diddest with any before us, wilt thou be unexorable, and are our sins unpardonable more than theirs? |
A26458 | 5 For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks? |
A26458 | 5 How long, Lord, wilt thou be angrie for ever? |
A26458 | 5 What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? |
A26458 | 5 Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, when the iniquity of mine heels shall compass me about? |

A26458 | 5 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? |
A26458 | 5 Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? |
A26458 | 6 6 How have they encompassed me, as in a net? |
A26458 | 6 For who in the heaven can be compared unto the Lord? |
A26458 | 6 The Lord is on my side, I will not f ● ar: what can man do unto me? |
A26458 | 6 There be many that say, who will shew us any good? |
A26458 | 6 Who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth? |
A26458 | 6 Wilt thou not revive us again? |
A26458 | 6 Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams, and ye little hills like lambs? |
A26458 | 7 7 And now, Lord, seeing every thing is thus emptie and unprofitable, why should I trust in or desire to be happie by any thing short of thee? |
A26458 | 7 And now, Lord, what wait I for? |
A26458 | 7 Behold, they belch out with their mouth: swords are in their lips; for who, say they, doth hear? |
A26458 | 7 Shall they escape by iniquitie? |
A26458 | 7 Thou, even thou art to be feared, and who may stand in thy sight when once thou art angry? |
A26458 | 7 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? |
A26458 | 7 Will the Lord cast off for ever? |

A26458 | 82 Mine eyes fail for thy word, saying, when wilt thou comfort me? |
A26458 | 84 84 Lord, how long too, is the end of my miseries? |
A26458 | 84 How many are the dayes of thy servant; when wilt thou execute judgement on them that persecute me? |
A26458 | 9 Hath God forgotten to be gracious? |
A26458 | 9 Hath God quite forgotten me? |
A26458 | 9 He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? |

A26458 | 9 Wherewithall shall a young man cleanse his way? |
A26458 | 9 Who will bring me into the strong Citie? |

A26458 | and am I not grieved with these that rise up against the ●? |
A26458 | and forgettest our affliction, and our oppression? |
A26458 | and have you such mean thoughts of God, as to judge him any thing less than omniscient? |

A87086 | Saint Paul told the Corinth that he did hear there were divisions among them, and did partly beleeve it; shall praise you in this? |

A86356 | 2 Where must wee inquire, or from whom? |
A86356 | 27. being in the dark, stumbling at you know not what? |
A86356 | 3 To what purpose must we inquire? |
A86356 | 5. where doth Christ speake to us but in his word, and by his spirit? |
A86356 | Amongst all by- wayes, how shall we discerne which is the good way? |
A86356 | Aske then, First, what is the good old way of Doctrine, what is the old patterne of wholsome words? |
A86356 | But how farre may we in enquiring after the good way consult with antiquity, and observe the old paths wherein the Ancient Fathers have troden? |
A86356 | But the Question is now, how this should bee brought about? |
A86356 | Consider that of Wisdome, and tremble; what if calamity come on you? |
A86356 | Doe you find this held forth in Scripture, that your conscience is an adequate and sufficient Rule for your actions? |
A86356 | Doth the Lord call upon you to bee carefully inquisitive in the concernments of your soules? |
A86356 | First, who must inquire? |
A86356 | God will laugh when your calamity commeth, and mocke when your destruction, and desolation, and feare shall seise on you; Why? |
A86356 | Have any of the Rulers, or of the Ph ● ● ● sees beleeved on him? |
A86356 | Here you may desire resolution in three particulars: 1 Who must inquire? |
A86356 | How carefull was Ezra to seeke of God a right way, when he was going from Babylon to Jerusalem? |
A86356 | How otherwise should Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, have knowne how to carry themselves, when the King commanded them to bow to his golden Image? |
A86356 | How shall I pardon for this? |
A86356 | If you were to deale with a Papist, and should aske him, Why doe you pray to Images? |
A86356 | If you were to let out a little money to use, you will bee sure to have a Bond made by good advice, you will have witnesses; why? |
A86356 | Indeed if you were to ask the Papist, who it is that must consider and try and examine things? |
A86356 | Is Christ divided? |
A86356 | Is it there prescribed or no? |
A86356 | Is there but one good way to soul- refreshing rest, must all travellers towards Sion come into the very same way? |
A86356 | It is vaine to serve God; and what profit have wee that wee have kept his Ordin ● n ● ● s? |
A86356 | It were easie to shew the naevi, the blemishes of others, but why should wee uncover our Fathers nakednesse? |
A86356 | Love the brotherhood, the corporation, the societie of Saints; And what? |
A86356 | Many please themselves, if they walke in such wayes as lead to their own profit, and to their owne worldly pleasures, O but what will bee the issue? |
A86356 | May any compulsion bee used by Magistrates, to draw people into the one good way? |
A86356 | Secondly, Where should wee inquire, from whom? |
A86356 | Such Divinity will helpe to patronize and protect Papists, Jewes, Turkes, and whom not? |
A86356 | The Lord said, Who shall perswade Ahab, that hee may goe up and fall at Ramoth Gilead? |
A86356 | The Lord saith unto him, Wherewith? |
A86356 | The heart is deceitfull above all things, and desperately wicked, who can know it? |
A86356 | Thirdly, To what purpose must wee inquire? |
A86356 | Though unity joyned with purity bee very desirable, yet what if there should bee a toleration of divers ways in a Church, in a Kingdom? |
A86356 | To what purpose commeth there to mee Incense from Sheba, and the sweet Cane from a farre Countrey? |
A86356 | What if God should cause his fury to rest upon us? |
A86356 | What then shall wee doe with all those in England, who are ingaged in different waies, both in regard of their opinions and practises? |
A86356 | What ● is this true doctrine, that the good old way, is that which leads to the rest of my Soule? |
A86356 | Who giveth rest from these terrours of conscience? |
A86356 | Who would have expected such an answer as this, to have been the ec ● ho to such soule- refreshing counsell? |
A86356 | Whom shall wee rather beleeve concerning God, than God himselfe? |
A86356 | how uncomely then are such divisions amongst you? |
A86356 | must you have no love to them that are not yet Saints? |
A86356 | or were yee baptized in the name of Paul? |
A86356 | pray for them; what if they can not afford you a good word? |
A86356 | sometimes they are so miserably puzzled, they dare not pray, they dare not come to the Lords Table: Where shall they now find Rest? |
A86356 | was Paul crucified for you? |
A86356 | were this a satisfying answer, I am perswaded in my conscience it is lawfull to goe to Masse, and therefore I may doe it? |
A86356 | who shall helpe you? |
A86356 | why doe you goe to Masse? |
A86356 | why not? |
A77856 | A Covenant with God? |
A77856 | After all this, he and all the people 〈 … 〉 a solemne Covenant, and that at the time of a publique Fast? |
A77856 | And can men that are born, and living, live safely, or at all, without continuall supply of food convenient for them? |
A77856 | And have not we seen this verified also neerer home? |
A77856 | And how goe they? |
A77856 | And how so? |
A77856 | And in trueth, when will we thus joyne our selves to the Lord, if not at a Fast? |
A77856 | And shall he begin, and we think much to follow? |
A77856 | And this was part of Gods Answer to the Jewes enquiring of the Prophet whether they should continue their solemne Fasts? |
A77856 | And what is the substance of their Covenant? |
A77856 | And why all this? |
A77856 | And why so? |
A77856 | And, how have men rejoyced at their falls? |
A77856 | And, how so? |
A77856 | And, is it better now? |
A77856 | And, what is the businesse; the end of all this hast? |
A77856 | And, what of her? |
A77856 | And, what then? |
A77856 | But what should be the meanes of such an unexpected destruction? |
A77856 | But, that is the Covenant on Gods part, you will say? |
A77856 | Did they not know him before? |
A77856 | Did they omit prayer, and fasting, and seeking early after God? |
A77856 | Ephraim also shall say, What have I to do any more with Idols? |
A77856 | Hast thou been a swearer, and so thou wilt be? |
A77856 | Hath not God himselfe said plainly, a Where there is no vision the people perish? |
A77856 | Hath this use ever been so much as thought of by us? |
A77856 | Have not some, in former times, been taken away, who have been great Oppressors, and Instruments of many sore pressures? |
A77856 | Have we not had more Fasts at Parliaments of late, than in many yeares before? |
A77856 | Have we not prayed? |
A77856 | He that enters into Covenant with God, is betroathed, yea even married to him: And how married? |
A77856 | How could they hope to be delivered, when she that commanded the world detained them? |
A77856 | I have entred into Covenant with God, as a wife with her husband; will that I am now doing, or going about, stand with my Covenant? |
A77856 | If any think, what adoe is here? |
A77856 | Is Ephraim my deare sonne? |
A77856 | Is he Good in deliverances? |
A77856 | Is it meant of every unrighteousnesse( that is in the nature of it damnable) which is to be found in the world? |
A77856 | Is it not his own complaint, b My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge? |
A77856 | Is this to performe Covenant with God? |
A77856 | No? |
A77856 | Oh what prayers, what fasting, what humiliation should we have seene ▪ But, when the snare was once broken, what followed? |
A77856 | Say then, what wilt thou now do? |
A77856 | Shall he be fast bound to them, and they left free to sit loose from him? |
A77856 | Shall the prey be taken from the Mightie, or the lawfull captive delivered? |
A77856 | They turne Covenanters? |
A77856 | Vnto the wicked saith God, what hast thou to do to take my Covenant into thy mouth, seeing thou castest my words behind thee? |
A77856 | What is a chiefe cause of all this? |
A77856 | What unrighteousnesse? |
A77856 | What use have we made of them? |
A77856 | What was it for which Iudah, and Israel became Captives,, but the breach of the Covenant? |
A77856 | What was the issue? |
A77856 | What? |
A77856 | Where is the Covenant( such a Covenant) with God, that so wonderfull a deliverance deserveth, and requireth? |
A77856 | Where should you begin then, but where God ever begins? |
A77856 | Whether is our Condition any what better now than heretofore, when those Leviathans were alive, and in their height? |
A77856 | Who knowes not, that in the Masse is committed the most abominable Idolatry that ever the Sunne beheld in the Christian world? |
A77856 | Whose heart bleeds not over this prodigious growth of Popery and over flowing of Popish Masses? |
A77856 | Why then is Deliverance, and Reformation so slow in comming? |
A77856 | Why, what if I doe not? |
A77856 | Will you therefore see the thing acted, and all these promises fulfilled? |
A77856 | Would you have this to be done, namely, that all should appeare before God in Zion, for this purpose? |
A77856 | a drunkard, an uncleane person, an oppressour, a prophane Esau, and wilt be so still? |
A77856 | c How shall they heare without a Preacher? |
A77856 | have we not fasted? |
A77856 | have we tasted of his love already? |
A77856 | is he a pleasant child? |
A77856 | is it agreeable to Justice and equitie? |
A77856 | what meanes this man to be so earnest? |
A77856 | what will all this doe without a Covenant, without taking hold of God, and joyning themselves to him to be his for ever? |
A77856 | will it be profitable for the State? |
A77856 | will it please God? |
A77856 | wilt thou still keep thy darling lust? |
A77856 | would he have us all turne Covenanters? |

A88149 | 4. and the like: Who can do them, but he that conferres and is in acquaintance with his ownheart? |
A88149 | Ah sad Climax, deceitfull, and deceitfull above all things, wicked, and desperately wicked, and so bad of both, that who can know it? |
A88149 | Am not I the King? |
A88149 | And is not the same case yours too? |
A88149 | And must not this want of intelligence needs spoyle the offices that a man oweth to it? |
A88149 | But the first question that I would desire every one that heareth me this day, to propose to his owne heart is but this; Heart how dost thou? |
A88149 | But what hath beene done? |
A88149 | Give them, O Lord, what wilt thou give? |
A88149 | Have you not been strangers? |
A88149 | How could wee answer, or hold up our faces before the Lord: But how must Iniquity lay her hand upon her mouth, and not bee able to speak a word? |
A88149 | How is it possible we should rightly do these things, if we have not acquaintance with our owne heart? |
A88149 | I would you would as constantly practise it with your own hearts, Heart how dost thou doe? |
A88149 | Is not the distribution of our time and converse much after the same proportion? |
A88149 | Is there yet any of the kindred of Jonathan, that hath shewed us kindnesse, that we may shew them the kindnesse of the Lord againe? |
A88149 | Might I not say, as the Jewes once to Christ, You deserve to doe for her? |
A88149 | Must not these be answers of him that holds not intelligence with his owne heart? |
A88149 | Or where there should have been fifty vessells full of this duty, can you find twenty? |
A88149 | Secondly, propose this question to every one of your hearts; heart what wilt thou do? |
A88149 | Should Christ spread our Covenant before us, upon the same accusing termes as hee spread his before Christ, what could wee answer? |
A88149 | The heart is deceitfull above all things, and desperately wicked, who can know it? |
A88149 | Thinkest thou, thou canst receive the Sacrament aright without the exercise of this duty? |
A88149 | This wakes the King, and makes him to start up: Appeale? |
A88149 | Was it ever seen, or could it ever be related, that any City under heaven ever did, as London hath done in love and kindnesse to your Cause and you? |
A88149 | Was there ever more palpable walking contrarie to God, or more desperate crossing of a Covenant? |
A88149 | What one among you can looke into his owne heart, but he must needs find London written there? |
A88149 | When Reformation was first spoken of, wee had Order and Ordinances, but now how is the one lost and the other slighted? |
A88149 | Who is sufficient for any of these things? |
A88149 | You know this is the first question, and the first- salute that we use one to another, Sir how do you? |
A88149 | and yet how common is this amongst men? |
A88149 | have you not been unacquainted? |
A88149 | have you not forgotten them? |
A88149 | how are these reall sons of Zion now brought low, despised, oppressed, and trod under foot in many places of the Land? |

A88149 | how is it with thee for thy spirituall estate? |
A88149 | how much of your time have you spent in communication with them? |
A88149 | or goe to the heap of your whole life, and where there should have been twenty measures imployed about this businesse, can you finde ten? |
A88149 | or, Heart what dost think wil become of thee and me? |
A88149 | sayes hee, To whom canst thou Appeale beyond mee? |
A88149 | wash my heart? |
A88149 | what difference is there betwixt serving a strange God, and serving the true God with a strange heart? |
A88149 | when had you and they any talke together? |
A88149 | why, I never asked it, not ever tooke notice how soyled and poluted it was: Watch it? |
A26847 | ( Saith God) Who is this, that darkneth wisdom, with words without knowledge? |
A26847 | ( i e.) what this Affliction meaneth? |
A26847 | 1. he puts the question, Why doth the way of the Wicked prosper? |
A26847 | 10. who would undertake to make a Judgment of Times, and did ask, Why were the former times better than these? |
A26847 | 19. Who will appoint me the time? |
A26847 | 2. Who knoweth, or can say, That is good for a man in this life, that never made a man Good? |
A26847 | 20) Why is life given to the Afflicted, and light to the bitter in Soul? |
A26847 | 20. that he vowed a vow; And see what he desireth of God? |
A26847 | 3. Who knoweth, or can say, That those things are good for a man in this life, that have made many men worse, through their Abuse of them? |
A26847 | 4. Who knoweth, or can say, That those things are good for a man in this life, that are things so uncertain? |
A26847 | 8. Who can say, That is good for a man in this life, that makes the entrance into Eternal Life so difficult? |
A26847 | A God that may give, and take away; and who can say to Him, What doest Thou? |
A26847 | A Rebellious Heart into Obedience? |
A26847 | An Honourable, Rich,& Prosperous Condition is changeable: and then, what is man the better for being in such a condition? |
A26847 | An hard Heart into Softness? |
A26847 | And considering this, Who can say, This or that condition is good or evil for a man, when he knoweth not how that condition may change? |
A26847 | And do you think to enter Heaven, with two Steeples on your back? |
A26847 | And if any ask, For what reason God hath hid this knowledg from man? |
A26847 | And if he grieve, What reason have I for it? |
A26847 | And likewise, What is it that makes an Afflicted condition Evil to some? |
A26847 | And now, What doth the Lord thy God require of thee? |
A26847 | And see for what end? |
A26847 | And there is nothing befalleth us in an Afflicted Condition, but what is by Divine Ordination; and why should we then fret at it? |
A26847 | And to see, What Crop is brought forth, and groweth in those furrows of Affliction? |
A26847 | And what got she by it? |
A26847 | And what is the reason that man knows not what shall be? |
A26847 | And what knowest thou, O poor man, but thy poverty may be for thy good; and why then shouldst thou envy the Rich? |
A26847 | And what will correct the bitter ingredients of an Afflicted Condition, that they be not too much dejected and cast down? |
A26847 | And, if I am Rich, must I not say, It is by the blessing of the Lord? |
A26847 | And, who can say, Prosperity is good for him, when he seeth Adversity over against him? |
A26847 | Are you in a prosperous condition, and would you make a judgment of it, whether it be good for you? |
A26847 | As Elkanah told Hannah, Am not I better to thee then ten Sons? |
A26847 | As that Wicked King of Israel said, This Evil is of the Lord, why should I wait any longer? |
A26847 | As when a loss or cross befalleth us, Whether we may lawfully wish, it had not been so? |
A26847 | Behold the word of the Lord came to him, And he said to him, What doest thou here, Elijah? |
A26847 | But how may a man know, that he is not the chooser of his own condition? |
A26847 | But some may Ask, How may I know, in praying for the things of this Life, that I have a respect to Gods Glory; since the Heart of man is so Deceitful? |
A26847 | But some may ask, Whether it be lawful for a man to wish, that a thing had fallen out otherwise then it did? |
A26847 | But some will say, Is it not the Blessing of the Lord that maketh Rich? |
A26847 | But then you will ask, What is the work, and what are the duties, that he is to do in an Afflicted condition? |
A26847 | But then you will ask, What should a man do in this case, that he may know? |
A26847 | But what is the Prophets reply? |
A26847 | But what saith the Psalmist? |
A26847 | But would you know, what is good for a man indeed, in this life? |
A26847 | But you will ask, How may a man come to take a right view of his condition, that he be not mistaken about it? |
A26847 | But, saith Solomon, What hath the Wise more than the Foolish? |
A26847 | But, whether it be the place the great Master of the Family placed us in? |
A26847 | But, why doth our Saviour call it, The unrighteous Mammon? |
A26847 | Can you say, Lord, It is the Condition that thou hast chosen for me; and I am here by thy Disposal and Appointment? |
A26847 | Can you say, The Rod of Affliction hath Sealed an Instruction to you concerning God, What he is? |
A26847 | Christians, in an Afflicted Condition, are to see, Whether the Furnace hath done this work upon them? |
A26847 | Dare you dye in an Unbelieving, and an Unregenerate Estate? |
A26847 | Did not I weep for him that was in trouble? |
A26847 | Did not Solomon, King of Israel, sin by those things? |
A26847 | Do I know what these Crosses and Afflictions may bring forth? |
A26847 | Do I know, but that good may lie in the womb of them? |
A26847 | Do you do every Duty, as if it were your dying Duty? |
A26847 | Do you do the work of your condition, and perform the duties of your condition? |
A26847 | Do you not make them the Fuel for Lusts, and Instruments of Revenge? |
A26847 | Do you not say to the Wedge of Gold, Thou art my Confidence? |
A26847 | Do you not spend them upon your Lusts? |
A26847 | Do you use the things of a prosperous condition, with this consideration, That they are things for which you must give an Account? |
A26847 | Do you use the world, as though you used it not? |
A26847 | Doth it hinder, or further my Salvation? |
A26847 | Doth it hinder, or further my growth in Grace? |
A26847 | Doth it set me, nearer Heaven, or nearer Hell? |
A26847 | Doth your behaviour become your condition? |
A26847 | For Prosperity; How do many abuse it to the feeding of their lusts, whereby that becomes evil to them that might have been for good? |
A26847 | For the better understanding of this, consider, What it is that we call good? |
A26847 | For, who knoweth what is Good for Man in this Life? |
A26847 | For, who knoweth what is good for man in this life? |
A26847 | Had Abraham a prosperous condition? |
A26847 | Hath God made you one of His? |
A26847 | Hath not God done this to cure the Tympany of Pride, or the Dropsy of Covetousness, or some Creature- Surfet? |
A26847 | Hath not the Lord sent it to take me off the creature, and to imbitter it more to me? |
A26847 | He putting out his Foot, shewed them his shoo, and said, Is not this shoo new? |
A26847 | How Conscientious was David, when he was David the Persecuted? |
A26847 | How a man may know, Whether a Prosperous Condition be good for him? |
A26847 | How know you, that the Branch of the Tree hath nourishment from the Root? |
A26847 | How many Ignorant ones, hath Affliction taught? |
A26847 | How many Proud ones, hath Affliction Humbled? |
A26847 | How many Wandring ones, hath Affliction Reduced and brought into the Way? |
A26847 | How many are there, that do not enjoy, but lose themselves in that condition? |
A26847 | How many are there, whom outward Fulness causeth to despise the Hony- Comb of the Gospel? |
A26847 | How many are there, whose wealth hath cost them their lives? |

A26847 | Now can you say, This Diet- drink of Affliction hath cured you of this Disease? |
A26847 | Now consider, What is the work of the Plough? |

A26847 | Plutarch, telleth us this Story of a Roman, He put away his Wife; his Friends thereupon asked him, VVhat fault he found with her? |
A26847 | Question, Whether it be lawful to pray for the things of this life? |

A26847 | Should we expect that Grace should have no Conflict, no Conquest before the Triumph; but be Crown''d, before we have shewed what it can do? |
A26847 | So ask a man, whether he be fit and able to bear a prosperous condition? |
A26847 | So the Question is, Whether this Truth, do not deny and destroy all Care of Providence? |
A26847 | So the things to be Known, are these: 1. Who is the Framer of our Conditions; Who it is Ordains and Appoints them, and puts us into them? |

A26847 | So then, in a prosperous condition, we should put this Question to our selves, What use we make of the things of the condition? |
A26847 | So we may say, Is God Unrighteous, that sendeth Affliction? |
A26847 | So, Can any good come out of Afflictions? |
A26847 | So, How can those things, that increase cares and troubles, make Man the better? |
A26847 | So, in every condition we should put this Question to our selves; What is it that the Lord requires me do, as the work of my condition? |
A26847 | So, on the contrary; Would you know, Whether an Afflicted condition be Evil for a Man? |
A26847 | Some may Ask, What is a convenient Estate? |

A26847 | The question we are to put to our selves in an Afflicted Condition, is, What Instruction the Affliction hath Sealed to us? |
A26847 | The second thing to be Enquired after, is, Of what Men, this is to be understood? |
A26847 | There be many that say,( saith David) Who will shew us any good? |

A26847 | There were Talents delivered, and the Master called his servants to an account, how they had used, and improved those Talents? |
A26847 | Thereupon, Solomon makes this great Enquiry, Wherein Man''s chiefest Good and Happinesse consists? |
A26847 | This evil is of the Lord, why should I wait any longer? |
A26847 | Thou, o Rich man, knowest not but that thy riches may be for thy hurt, Why shouldst thou then despise the poor? |
A26847 | Though we are not able to tell you concerning outward things, What are good for a man in this life? |
A26847 | Thus a man should reason with himself; Why should I be proud of those things which have proved evill to some, and I know not but they may be so to me? |
A26847 | Thus we have finished the First thing, by which a man is to make a judgment of an Afflicted Condition; whether it be good for him in this life or not? |

A26847 | VVe should consider, VVhether we do not take the Honour to our selves, of placing our selves in conditions? |
A26847 | VVhat do we deserve? |
A26847 | VVhether we did not place our selves? |
A26847 | VVho is it, that can look upon himself as such, and yet stand upon it, to have what he will? |

A17286 | I will behave my selfe wisely, in a perfect way; oh when wilt thou come unto mee? |
A17286 | IF godly men be men of another spirit, and this be their commendation; why then should any account it to be a dishonour to be singular from the world? |
A17286 | IF the spirits of godly men bee thus pretious, how vile then is this base world, which hath such irrationall absurd conceits of this spirit? |

A17286 | If the treasure be rich, what though the vessell be earthen? |
A17286 | Indeed we should the rather follow the Lord, because we see so few follow him: What? |
A17286 | Is it not because he intends to give me my portion in this life, but reserves better mercies for them afterwards? |

A17286 | Shall mans authority make small things to be accounted great, and shall Gods Authority doe nothing? |
A17286 | So I may say of these, Oh that there were such a heart in them; How farre are they from having yet a heart to follow God fully? |

A17286 | Then Iulian answers, And if it be sufficient to be accused, who can be innocent? |
A17286 | They are not valiant for the truth upon the earth: and what is the reason? |

A17286 | Wee reade of a notable speech, that Hilarion had when hee was to die; Goe out, goe out my soule, why dost thou feare, why dost thou doubt? |

A17286 | With what face can you complaine of weaknesse, and yet feed your distempers? |
A17286 | You talke of merry hearts and joyfull spirits, but can you be joyfull in affliction? |
A17286 | Your parts were alwayes hopefull, but how apparently have they beene raised since grace hath sanctified them? |
A17286 | almost these seventy yeares hast thou served Christ, and dost thou now feare death? |
A17286 | and can it not do so now? |
A17286 | and shall not then our hearts and lives bee more fully after the blessed God? |
A17286 | and thou my sonne Brutus too? |
A17286 | and which so scornes and abuses men of such excellent spirits? |
A17286 | and who is there, that being as I am, would go into the Temple to save his life? |
A17286 | and, what thou? |
A17286 | are these to the excellency of mans nature? |
A17286 | are they not the blessed wayes of holinesse, the wayes of eternall rest and peace that thou hast left? |
A17286 | as Christ said to his Disciples, when many forsook him, Will you also forsake me? |
A17286 | can not a man bee saved except hee doe thus? |
A17286 | doe they not bring more honor to his Name, than ever you did? |
A17286 | doe they not doe God farre more service than you? |
A17286 | doth holinesse, that makes God glorious, make man contemptible and vile? |
A17286 | doth that which makes God so honourable in the eies of the blessed Angels and Saints, make man a sott, and a foole in the eyes of men? |
A17286 | egredere anima mea, quid dubitas? |
A17286 | for whom the Lord hath done such great things? |
A17286 | hath Christ laid down his life,& shed his pretious blood for the renewing of Gods Image in man, and is it nothing but this? |
A17286 | have not many of them most excellent pretious spirits? |
A17286 | how contemptibly was hee used? |
A17286 | how dejected are they then? |

A17286 | how loathsome is the mixture of their spirits? |
A17286 | how soone is the heart brought fully to close with them? |
A17286 | how would you have them live? |
A17286 | in the vertue, in the power, and life of Christ Jesus, if it doth not enable to go beyond others? |
A17286 | is godlinesse but a notion, but a conceit, that it will not carry men beyond the light of nature? |
A17286 | is it absolutely necessary? |
A17286 | is it not the God of life, and peace, and comfort, and all good, that thou hast forsaken? |
A17286 | is this that Land that God said hee would shew me? |
A17286 | is this that fruitfull Land for which I must leave my Country and all my friends? |
A17286 | is this thy kindnesse to him? |
A17286 | may not such a thing be lawfully done? |
A17286 | not better fruit grow upon the tree of life, than upon the root of nature? |
A17286 | not better fruit in the garden, in the vineyard of the Lord, then in the wildernesse? |
A17286 | or was there never any thing that had as much difficulty as this in it? |
A17286 | put into stocks, and whipped; wanted cloathes and victuals? |
A17286 | septuagintaprope annis servisti Christo, et mortemtimes? |
A17286 | shall I smite them? |
A17286 | shall I then be glad of these wayes I now walke in? |
A17286 | shall he have none to follow him? |
A17286 | that was as unlikely as this, to come to a good issue and yet was at last accomplished? |
A17286 | were they some vile- spirited men? |
A17286 | what cost will they bee at? |
A17286 | what was S. Paul, and what were those that were with him, who was so accounted of, were they not men of most excellent and admirable spirits? |
A17286 | what was that, that raised and inlarged Davids heart? |
A17286 | what? |
A17286 | what? |
A17286 | who ever had a higher straine of eloquence than Esay? |
A17286 | who ever more profound than S. Paul? |
A17286 | whom hast thou forsaken? |
A17286 | why may not this then be done? |
A17286 | will your spirits hold out in tribulation? |
A17286 | wilt thou have thy blow also at him? |
A17286 | would they not have thought it better to have been at more liberty? |
A17286 | would you have them live according to the common course of the world? |
A17286 | 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 5 Quid prodest esse, quod esse non predest? |
A87104 | And may they not as truly be charged upon us? |
A87104 | And now what more fit? |
A87104 | And shall we our selves practice that towards God which we would abhorr and condemn in a Servant towards us? |
A87104 | And will you know what followeth upon such provocations? |
A87104 | At the twelfth verse of this Psalm we find David putting a question, what shall I render? |
A87104 | At whose command am I? |
A87104 | Aug. Si non vovisses quid aliud tibi suadendum suit aut quid melius ab homine fieri potest, quam ut ei se restituat à quo institutus est? |
A87104 | But do we thus requite the Lord, oh foolish People, and unwise? |
A87104 | But it may be here objected, what meaneth David to say thus peremptorily? |
A87104 | But what is it that rendreth this life the matter of David''s desire and hope? |
A87104 | Can two walk together and not be agreed? |
A87104 | Doth not the Law of Nature teach us to do as we would be done to? |
A87104 | Doth the Spirit or the Flesh govern me? |
A87104 | Finally, Do we not think that God is highly provoked with, and therefore will surely and sorely avenge himself upon such ingratefull Rebels? |
A87104 | How happy is the condition of a Saint? |
A87104 | How welcome was the spacious Land to Jonah, when he had been Prisoner in the Whales belly? |
A87104 | I am not able to requite, shall I not endeavour to return something to him for all his love? |
A87104 | I have deserved nothing but death, and tears, and falling, shall I not be thankfull for deliverance from all these? |
A87104 | I will? |
A87104 | Indeed how can it be expected that those services which are onely rented forth to Mens eyes, should have any payment at God''s hands? |
A87104 | Is carnal reason, or God''s Word, my rule? |
A87104 | Is not this the most odious ingratitude to retaliate injuries for curtesies? |
A87104 | Lord, what wilt thou give me if I go graceless? |
A87104 | Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? |
A87104 | Nay yet worse, like the Earth that drinketh in the Rain, and instead of Herbs meet for the Dresser, bringeth forth Thorns and Briars? |
A87104 | O, my Brethren, often ask your selves these Questions, Before whom do I walk? |
A87104 | Quasi diceret Rem novam agis& insolentem cum enim soleas ex uno beneficio alia atque aliaseriatim ducere, quid modo hanc telam interrūp ●? |
A87104 | Qui Deo non vult reddere bona quae vovit ei, quomodo vult à Deo accipere bona quae ei Deus promisit? |
A87104 | Saint Paul saith, it is God who worketh in us to will and to do, and doth David attribute it to himself, I will? |
A87104 | The sense of this made Ezra to blush in behalf of the People, crying out, And now, Oh our God, what shall we say after this? |
A87104 | Thus indeed we ought to do; but what do we? |
A87104 | To this purpose the reasonings of David and Hezechiah concerning death, and the grave, are very observable, Shall the dust prayse thee? |
A87104 | To walk in the land of the living is the wicked mans desire, yea were it possible he would walk here for ever, but for what end? |
A87104 | VVas not God incensed bitterly against the old World, when he said, It repented me that I made Man upon Earth? |
A87104 | VVhat Man would be so impudent as to steal before the Judges face? |
A87104 | VVhat foolishness is it to desire that one should be a Spectator, and expect another to be a rewarder of thy actions? |
A87104 | VVhat kind greeting think you was there between Lazarus and his Sisters, when he was returned from the dead? |
A87104 | VVhat madness is it to regard the fellow- servants eye, and not the Masters? |
A87104 | VVhen Sigismund asked Theodoricus, what a Man should do to walk in the right way that leadeth to bliss? |
A87104 | VVhich of us( my Brethren) here before God this day have not experienced variety of mercies, positive and privitive, in our persons and relations? |
A87104 | VVould it not then be a great curb to our licenciousness, did we consider that the King of Kings, and Judge of all the World looketh on? |
A87104 | Vbi placebo? |
A87104 | What are my waies? |
A87104 | What man plants an Orchard, and looketh not to eat of the Fruit? |
A87104 | What speak I of Saints? |
A87104 | Whom should a Man labour to please if not his Benefactor? |
A87104 | and in the sense of thy vileness thus reason with thy self, I am unworthy to receive, shall I be unwilling to requite the goodness of God? |
A87104 | and would we have others deal by us as we do by God? |
A87104 | are they restrained? |
A87104 | are we not like the high- way side, which returneth no crop, though you cast never so much seed upon it? |
A87104 | builds an House, and hopeth not to enjoy the comfort thereof? |
A87104 | cur non pergis nectere hanc catenam? |
A87104 | feedeth a Flock, and expecteth not to eat of the Milk of the Flock? |
A87104 | in Gen. Quid ergo vovemus Deo nisi ut simus Templum Dei? |
A87104 | nay rather, do we not stand out the more rebelliously against him? |
A87104 | or act any thing unseemly in his Princes sight? |
A87104 | quersum ver ● cessas tu ● ● me beneficiis cumulare? |
A87104 | say in this case, as Abraham in another, Lord, what wilt thou give me seeing I go childless? |
A87104 | the sounding of thy bowells, and of thy mercyes towards me? |
A87104 | these gentle Batteries? |
A87104 | thou hast delivered my soul from death, to whom but thee should I dedicate my life? |
A87104 | what men resolve and promise must be what they are able to performe, and is not walking before God more than he had ability to do? |
A87104 | yea remain in the Congregation of the Dead, whilst in the Land of the Living? |
A87104 | yea, like the Vineyard, which though fenced and planted, instead of Grapes brought forth wild Grapes? |
A87104 | yea, which of us at some time, in some kind or other, hath not been blessed with deliverances, and that from various, yea desperate dangers? |
A95657 | & c. And what settlement can we expect, while one is a Brownist, another an Anabaptist, another an Antinomian, another a Seeker? |
A95657 | & c? |
A95657 | 15. what fruit had yee in th ● se things whereof yee are now ashamed saith the Apostle to the Romans? |
A95657 | 23. saying why doe you so, or such things? |
A95657 | 24. yee have stolen away my Gods; and what have I more? |
A95657 | 25. that God by the mouth of his servant David said; why doe the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vaine thing? |
A95657 | 27. we must wait for that hereafter; Why in the meane time doe so many sad quarrells, sharpe contentions arise amongst us? |
A95657 | 32. who is on my side who? |
A95657 | 37. sleepest thou Peter? |
A95657 | 4. how credulous and forward was shee to entertaine his suggestion? |
A95657 | A new Christ, a new Passion, a new Resurrection: What would we be? |
A95657 | A strange thing in Ely to punish the Thefts, Rapines, Sacriledge, Adulters, Incests of his sonnes with why doe you so? |
A95657 | Alas, what would we have? |
A95657 | And how doth the stone out of the Wall, and the Beame in the Chamber, cry out aloud against oppression? |
A95657 | And how hath the Error of Religion made many amongst us so wanton, that they know not what to have, nor what to hold? |
A95657 | And secondly how doth it inflame the soule too, filling that with lusts as hot as hell? |
A95657 | And sleepest thou, Peter? |
A95657 | And what was the reason of this their most unnaturall, and more then bruitish cariage towards their brother? |
A95657 | And what were these? |
A95657 | And who are these hidden ones? |
A95657 | And, is there an ayming at the head of Authority now, an endeavour by some to lay all even and levell? |
A95657 | Are the Souldiers ● anding themselves? |
A95657 | Are the high Preists consulting? |
A95657 | But what may be done in this case, may some one say? |
A95657 | But why? |
A95657 | Dormis tu Petre? |
A95657 | For if the spirit and soule of obedience be taken away, what can follow but Ataxie and Confusion? |
A95657 | How doe Pride and Luxury strive for the upper end of the table? |
A95657 | How doth the very breath of most desperate swearers, and blasphemers even poyson the very aire of the Kingdome wherein we live? |
A95657 | How have many miserable people been content, meerely led by the instigation of the Devill, and enflamed by him? |
A95657 | How was it with Ahab who cast off God, and joyned himselfe to Idols, as the Prophet Hosea phraseth it? |
A95657 | Is the Son of God neere his betraying? |
A95657 | Is there a striking at Religion, in an endeavour after liberty therein? |
A95657 | Lawlesse liberty, and what is that? |
A95657 | Nay who can count the hurts that by drunken distempers come both to the body and soule? |
A95657 | Nemo miserius misero, non miserante seipsum: Who can be more miserable then those, which will not be mercifull unto themselves? |
A95657 | No sooner had Pharaoh asked that bold blasphemous question, Who is the Lord that I should obey his voice, to let Israel go? |
A95657 | Oh how doth the excesse of wine, and any other strong liquor, fire the bloud, casting the body into feavers& c? |
A95657 | Oh love I thou duty and ornament of Christians, thou glory of Saints, thou delight of God, where art thou? |
A95657 | Oh yee Lawes of England what doe yee? |
A95657 | Or what have I more to lose? |
A95657 | Rebellious spirits, who are they? |
A95657 | Shall we therefore reject physick, because the sicknesse of some is incurable? |
A95657 | Shalt thou indeed reigne over us? |
A95657 | Shalt thou? |
A95657 | Thou one of the yongest sonnes of our father? |
A95657 | What doe we expect? |
A95657 | What shall be given, or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue? |
A95657 | What stone doe these leave unturned, what thing doe they leave unattempted? |
A95657 | aime at nothing so much as destructive liberty? |
A95657 | are yee asleepe? |
A95657 | as Chrysostom observes upon this passage, were thy Gods such ones that a man might steale them? |
A95657 | dormis? |
A95657 | how art thou departed from us? |
A95657 | how art thou gone? |
A95657 | how sadly miserable would their condition be? |
A95657 | shalt thou have dominion over us? |
A95657 | the Prophet admiring their folly, in going about that, which was impossible for them to effect, why doe they rage? |
A95657 | to what purpose is all this? |
A95657 | what was this but to shave that head which deserved to be cut off? |
A95657 | where are yee? |
A95657 | where shall we finde thee? |
A95657 | where shall we seeke thee? |
A95657 | — pudet haec opprobria nobis, Et dici potuisse,& non potuisse refelli? |
A70828 | ( I meane your own merit) have you this from Adam? |
A70828 | 10.5, 6. Who could thinke now that ever Israel should recover this whipping, or that ever Israel should get up, and Assyria come downe? |
A70828 | 15.53.. Who I pray you would not change thus at any time? |
A70828 | 30. can you think that now the Saints of God shall not be provided for let what times can come do come? |
A70828 | 7. and doth the King effect his desires? |
A70828 | And I pray you, what is become of Romes glory? |
A70828 | And doe you thinke the great God of heaven and earth will fall short of a godly man? |
A70828 | And to what end thinke you were all these given? |
A70828 | And what did this worke in the thoughts of plain- meaning David? |
A70828 | And when his refining tim ● comas? |
A70828 | And who is it that would rule by prerogative? |
A70828 | And who is it which hence goes first to God in prayer to aske leave and crave a blessing? |
A70828 | And who it hath said they shall not, and he will not Reforme furthen he pleases? |
A70828 | And who thinke you did the wonder? |
A70828 | And who wo ● ld not now desire ● nclose with Christ, and love Christ, and walke wi ● h Christ? |
A70828 | But how shall I know which are the works of the divell, and which are the commands of Iesus Christ? |
A70828 | But if all courage, strength and comfort comes from God in Christ what a sad condition am I in? |
A70828 | But what effect did this worke upon the heart of David? |
A70828 | But you may say, how shall I know by my actions when I obey the divell, and when I obey Iesus Christ? |
A70828 | But you will say, who can doe this? |
A70828 | Certainly, this design can not but take; yes, and take him they may, but to what purpose? |
A70828 | Have they set up themselves, and pull''d downe the Churches? |
A70828 | Have they yet rooted out Religion, and worne out or wasted the Saints of the most high? |
A70828 | Have they yet taken away the name of a professor( as hath beene a ● tempted) out of this poor spot of the world? |
A70828 | Have you this by nature, or purchase? |
A70828 | Here is a Saint- like frame indeed: but how comes this thinke you? |
A70828 | I might also give you more of the same presidents, but these are sufficient: what think you now of this? |
A70828 | If your Excellency be pleased to peruse it, it beares the character of a right Souldier, and I know you wil not love it the worse for that? |
A70828 | Is it not full? |
A70828 | Is not th ● ● a sweet and plaine Scripture? |
A70828 | Is not this a night Popish plot? |
A70828 | Is not this plaine? |
A70828 | Is not true knowledge Gods? |
A70828 | Is there no balme in Gilead? |
A70828 | Knowne of mine, will you say, what''s that? |
A70828 | Love these, and love Christ; neglect these, and you care not for Iesus Christ: Now then ▪ have these taken thy heart and ravished thy soule? |
A70828 | Now do you beleeve that this is the Word of God, and that there is any truth in it? |
A70828 | Now then, all things considered, what hath this wicked tyrant got to himselfe? |
A70828 | On the other side, is not Christ, despised Christ, worth the having, which helpes all, gives a right to all, guides in all? |
A70828 | Ordinances as they are Christs? |
A70828 | Secondly, when the children playd the hypocrites, and would not be obedient to God, God provides a rod to whip them into subjection? |
A70828 | So there must needs be mercy in the fountain of mercy in the Father of mercy: Why then take ye not the right way? |
A70828 | Tell me now, doth not this tremble your Malignants spirits? |
A70828 | The way to obtaine is to goe to God for it; Are not the Ordinances Gods? |
A70828 | This you will conclude is right Christian valour indeed; but whence fetches the Christian this undaunted resolution? |
A70828 | VVho cals to minde the all- searching eye, who looks into hearts? |
A70828 | VVho is it that considers duly the weightinesse of the busines he i ● ● bout? |
A70828 | VVho is it that premeditates into whose presence he is to come, and with what a Majesty he hath to doe with? |
A70828 | VVho is it that takes into his thoughts that now he is about soule- saving or soule- destroying worke? |
A70828 | Was there ever any truth of God more plaine? |
A70828 | Wh ● t can any desire more? |
A70828 | What a deepe engagement hath a Christian to become ● ll Christs, while Christ is all in all to him? |
A70828 | What a miserable case are those in which have not Christ, when parts, Sermons, Sacraments, all increase damnation? |
A70828 | What became of proud Pharaoh and his Army, were they not drownt in the Sea? |
A70828 | What can you desire more? |
A70828 | What deep groanes, and pleading- blood, goes daily to God by this meanes? |
A70828 | What earnest prayers are now put up? |
A70828 | What have any, nay all these got, by all the blood which they have drawne from the Saints of God? |
A70828 | What thinke you now of the truth of the doctrine? |
A70828 | When the Eunuch asked Philip,( saying) what doth hinder me to baptized? |
A70828 | When times of peace, riches, and honour, and liberty given to the Saints, when the Gospell times so long promised to the Churches, shall come? |
A70828 | Whence fetches he this? |
A70828 | Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? |
A70828 | Where now is cunning Cyrus, and ambitious Alexander? |
A70828 | Who are they among all the Gods of the Countries, that have delivered their Country out of mine hand? |
A70828 | Who is it that are d ● sirous to preserve the people of God, and defend themselves in temple- worke by all lawfull meanes? |
A70828 | Who is it that hath set upon the worke of Reformation? |
A70828 | Who is it that out of the sense of hi ● ignorance, makes it his maine end in all his Services to get saving knowledge, the more to g ● orifie God? |
A70828 | Who is it that would submit to the Word and rule of God? |
A70828 | Who unto Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for y ● ● devoure widdowes houses, and for a pretence m ● ke long prayers:( what then?) |
A70828 | Yea, who would not be rouled u ●,& wholly enclosed in Christ, where there dwells so much sweetneste, s ● much f ● llness ●, so much freedome? |
A70828 | and all Gods? |
A70828 | and of the other Apostles and Martyrs: But now whence draw all the Saints these Heroicke resolutions? |
A70828 | and who discernes the Almighty power of God who is able to dambe body and soule? |
A70828 | and who is this rod thinke you? |
A70828 | are these the cause of thy rejoycing, and the want of these thy sorrow? |
A70828 | canst thou rejoyce in Christ and account thy interest in him to be dearer to thee then all other honours and priviledges? |
A70828 | do you the more love pure Ordinances as they are the more agreeable to the mind of Christ? |
A70828 | doe you pray for the prosperity of Christ''s cause? |
A70828 | doe you the more love Christians where there is the more of Christ in them? |
A70828 | doest thou love to follow Christ under all contempts? |
A70828 | doest thou prize the Word of God above all the Words wealth? |
A70828 | doth not the ebbings and flowings of Christs cause bring you to it and cast you from it? |
A70828 | doth your hearts tell you that Religion is dearer to you then esiates, then life, then the best blood in your bodies? |
A70828 | if we consider how unpreparedly and carelesly most goe either to reading the Word or hearing of Sermons? |
A70828 | is not Christ, Gods? |
A70828 | is not this a strong support for the Saints that all the working, plotting, and powers of the wicked shall do them good? |
A70828 | is not this a sweet support for Saints in these sad times? |
A70828 | is not this enough to startle a carnall man or woman out of their sleepe of security? |
A70828 | is there no Physition there? |
A70828 | it is God that justifieth, who is he that condemneth? |
A70828 | what delight have yee in the Saints? |
A70828 | what hurt doth one doe to a poore pined prisoner, to knock off his bolts and set him at liberty? |
A70828 | what hurt doth one when he finds a poore childe like to perish in the woods, to lead him out and bring him home to his Fathers house? |
A70828 | what hurt doth the wicked to the Saints by killing them? |
A70828 | what inquires doe you make after Christ? |
A70828 | what is the Word and preaching, but a declaration of the mind of God to us? |
A70828 | what now will you venture for Christ ● nd his cause and his people? |
A70828 | what rule goe you by? |
A70828 | what soule- meetings have you with Christ? |
A70828 | what sweet communion have ● ou with Christ? |
A70828 | whence fetch they all this strength an ● courage? |
A70828 | who shall deliver me from the death and damnation which the sinne of my nature, my flesh( the body) hath brought me to? |
A70828 | who would not be on God''s side and Christ''s side and the Saints side? |
A70828 | who would not c ● ose with this God and trust this God with all? |
A70828 | who would not seek for an interest in Jesus Christ? |
A70828 | who? |
A70828 | why goe ye not to God in your misery? |
A70828 | why lay ye not the Promises before God, and claime your priviledges by the death and sufferings of Christ? |
A70828 | why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered? |
A70828 | will you stand for it and owne it what condition soever it''s in? |
A70828 | you may build upon, you may venture your salvation upon it God never deceived any; who then would not be a christian? |
A70828 | you shall see, it put him to lay out unto the Lord for help, it brings him to his prayers; and now Lord what wait I for? |
A70828 | ● ow doe yee prize the Ordinances? |
A70828 | ● s not this a strange cause which the enemies themselves helpe forward, and doe the Saints most good, where they intend the greatest hurt? |
A70256 | ( For what can men in darkness see?) |
A70256 | All this Glory, all this Joy, an Heart full, and a Heaven full, and to Eternity also, and that for so few imperfect services? |
A70256 | And are not you living? |
A70256 | And doth not Grace teach them to propagate the Truth, and true Religion? |
A70256 | And doth not Hezekiah look upon this as one of the great works to be attended in this World, without which it is not worth while to live? |
A70256 | And had he not done well? |
A70256 | And have we sympathized with our Brethren in their sufferings? |
A70256 | And how often also do the Saints in Scripture reprove the wicked and ungodly? |
A70256 | And is it enough that you provide Meat, and Drink, and Apparel, Portions, and Trades, aud ways of livelihood for them? |
A70256 | And is it not exprest as a duty, and a great one too? |
A70256 | And is not this also a most blessed service? |
A70256 | And is not your day also far spent? |
A70256 | And must I be on the receiving hand as to all this Glory for ever and for ever? |
A70256 | And though we can not expect to entertain them as they did, yet,( if we could) what is that to the entertainment of Christ himself? |
A70256 | And to these Gates you must come at last, and pass through them also to the highest Tribunal, to answer to this Question, What hast thou done? |
A70256 | And what are all the sufferings of this present time, in comparison with the glory which shall be revealed in us? |
A70256 | And what is the reason, that many are so ignorant this day, but because they wanted Family- instruction from Parents and Masters? |
A70256 | And what saith Solomon? |
A70256 | And what says John of that? |
A70256 | And what? |
A70256 | And where is singularity of life to be seen? |
A70256 | And who knows what God hath appointed for him this way? |
A70256 | Are you not alive? |
A70256 | But have we been sufferers in affection? |
A70256 | But how can it be, that the Evening should be so dark, and yet that at Evening- time it should be light? |
A70256 | But how? |
A70256 | But if it be thus; why have some of the Saints mentioned in Scripture desired to dye? |
A70256 | But is it not lawful then in any case, to desire to dye? |
A70256 | But shall this Evening then determine this Day, so that the Conversion of the Jews shall become another Day? |
A70256 | But still, what have you done, if you were now as near the gates of the grave, as here he was? |
A70256 | But then, do not the Saints, when they are dead praise the Lord? |
A70256 | But what are those services that may be done here, which can not be done in Heaven, that so we may see the Point in Instances? |
A70256 | But what followeth? |
A70256 | But what is the Light, and what the Darkness? |
A70256 | But wherein shall this Light consist? |
A70256 | But why then is it called a Day in the same Verse? |
A70256 | Come; how long? |
A70256 | Do you know the price of your own souls, and not of theirs too? |
A70256 | Doth not Hezekiah here say, The Father to the Children shall make known thy Truth? |
A70256 | Doth not Nature teach Men to propagate their kind? |
A70256 | First then, What is this Evening? |
A70256 | For Hope( that is, the thing hoped for) that is seen, is not Hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? |
A70256 | For do you think it enough, that you breed them up to live in this world? |
A70256 | For have not our hearts sometimes checked us, upon reviews of the loss of our opportunities to do such or such a good work? |
A70256 | For he that had but one Talent, doth not say, Lord, I had but one, and what can a Man do with one? |
A70256 | For what great mistakes have there been, about the time of Antichrist''s ruine, and the calling of the Jews? |
A70256 | For you have lived lon, and perhaps are now grown old, but have you been old Traders? |
A70256 | For, what do they think when they are entring into the joy of their Lord? |
A70256 | Have we been prepared for the Cross? |
A70256 | How few are they who have a just valuation of these living mercies, or that duly lay to heart the loss of them? |
A70256 | How few, that profess the fear of God this day, are writing of Copies for posterity to walk by? |
A70256 | How many Churches did he usually pray for? |
A70256 | How often do the Saints under the Old Testament, pray for the Kingdom of our Lord Jesus under the New? |
A70256 | How should such, as these walk before others, so as to answer the Character of Elders? |
A70256 | I have laid several particulars before you, concerning the service of this life;& have you not been wanting in many of them? |
A70256 | If a Man dye, shall he live again? |
A70256 | In a word, to propagate pure Religion,& undefiled, to the generations to come, is not this glorious work? |
A70256 | In the mean- while, where is your Religion? |
A70256 | Is not suffering for Christ, glorious work? |
A70256 | Is your capacity than such, that you can not praise the Lord? |
A70256 | It seems, that Nicodemus was an old Man when he came to Christ by night; For, saith he, Can a Man be born when he is old? |
A70256 | Now God will use means to bring this to pass, and what are those means? |
A70256 | Now would not this be most miserable? |
A70256 | Oh, remember the care of good Manoah, when the Angel told him, he should have a son; But, saith he, How shall we order the Child? |
A70256 | Or, are not theirs as precious as yours? |
A70256 | Or, have we not been among the fearful? |
A70256 | Or, is it all one to you where you spend your Eternity, and whether you go to Heaven or Hell? |
A70256 | Or, that you give them civil Education, and teach them how to carry themselves as men? |
A70256 | Or, what care have you, that Godliness may flourish in the next generation, who take not the course that it may thrive in your own Family? |
A70256 | Praise ye the Lord; who? |
A70256 | Remember them; How? |
A70256 | Secondly, What shall we say to such as have lived to no purpose at all? |
A70256 | Secondly; What is that Light, that shall shine so gloriously at the Evening- time, especially at the end of it? |
A70256 | Shall thy loving kindness be declared in the Grave? |
A70256 | Shall thy wonders be known in the dark? |
A70256 | To do good, and to communicate both to the bodily and spiritual necessities of Saints and others, is not this glorious work? |
A70256 | We must appear for Christ, his Truth, his Rules, and Glory; or where is our love to him? |
A70256 | Were this throughly weighed, how would Holiness be promoted, Saints thrive, Families flourish, Churches revive? |
A70256 | What a Catalogue then had Paul of Churches and Saints to recommend to God in his daily prayers? |
A70256 | What a deal of good had Hezekiah done, before he fell into this sickness? |
A70256 | What cause have we to bless God that we see the Truth and Gospel going on conquering and to conquer all Errour and Opposition? |
A70256 | What great things have been, and still are done by prayers? |
A70256 | What hath been here said answereth that Challenge of the Papists; Where was your Church before the Dayes of Luther? |
A70256 | What saith the Apostle? |
A70256 | What then, if God should now lay you( as he did Hezekiah) upon your sick Bed, and threaten to cut off the Thrum of your lives? |
A70256 | Where now was the Light? |
A70256 | Where your Conscience as to your Covenant? |
A70256 | Why? |

A70256 | Would you not with him turn your faces to the wall, and weep sore? |
A70256 | Yea, how many are there among the Professors of the Gospel, by whose failings we may learn more than by their Vertues? |
A70256 | Yes, as to a worldly account: Yea, but there is another, and a better Trade,& what have you done therein? |
A70256 | You have gained thus much in the world, he will say, but what redounds to my share of all that you have done? |
A70256 | and are not the shadows of the evening stretched out? |
A70256 | and have we accounted them happy that have endured, yea, and their sufferings honourable for the sake, and in the quarrel of such a Lord and Master? |
A70256 | and shall the dead arise and praise thee? |
A70256 | and thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness? |
A70256 | and was it not time now to dye? |
A70256 | and what a glorious report? |
A70256 | and what have you said to them? |
A70256 | and what shall we do do unto him? |
A70256 | and where was the One Day in my Text? |
A70256 | is not the exercise of Faith, Hope, and Patience, glorious work? |
A70256 | is there charity in Hell? |
A70256 | must we pray for Jesus Christ? |
A70256 | or thy faithfulness in destruction? |
A70256 | shall it declare thy Truth? |
A70256 | shall the dust praise thee? |
A70256 | was there no remedy, but God must kill him, and presently too, if the burthen of the people lay a little longer upon him? |

A70256 | what saith the Psalmist? |
A70256 | what was the matter? |

A70256 | who would not pray that he might live to do God service? |
A70256 | will not a Child of God be satisfied without length of dayes? |

A91855 | & unde illum placabimus? |
A91855 | 1. g Holocaustis non delectaberis] Nihil ergo offeremus? |
A91855 | 105. x Sed quomodo punit deus induratione? |
A91855 | 11. how are these judgements concatenated together, and pursue one another as Jobs messengers, and the billowes of the Sea? |
A91855 | 13. where shall we have healing? |
A91855 | 14. yea how was the self- debasing penitentiary commended and comforted by Christ? |
A91855 | 18, 19. ther''s much of Christ in the broken heart: how then can a broken heart chuse but be endeared to Christ? |
A91855 | 19. and against the honour of Religion, scandalizing Gods people, and giving great occasion to the enemies of God to blaspeame? |
A91855 | 22. and shall not mans own spirit groan, and his own heart break under the pressure of his own iniquities? |
A91855 | 3. y Quid est cordurum? |
A91855 | 4. yet when all''s done, we are but unprofitable Servants, what have we done more then duty? |
A91855 | Against thee that hast made me, maintained me, loved me, delivered me, crowned me, redeemed me,& c. oh against thee, thee only; what? |
A91855 | And how was the selfe- debasing Publican justified before the Pharisy? |
A91855 | And shall England think to commit the same sins, and yet escape the judgements of God? |
A91855 | And till the sinner do return even unto God, how can he be said compleatly and truely to repent? |
A91855 | Are our hearts iron? |
A91855 | But how may we discover whether our hearts and spirits be truly broken and contrite? |
A91855 | But how shall we get and keep broken Spirits? |
A91855 | Can we redresse these distempers? |
A91855 | Consider, is all sin bitter, thine owne sin most bitter: dost thou cast first stone at thy selfe? |
A91855 | Did Felix tremble slavishly? |
A91855 | Finally, over and beyond all this, God plagues hardnesse of heart with dreadfull judgments, who ever hardened himselfe against God, and prospered? |
A91855 | Finally, what eternall vengeance do hard hearts here treasure up unto themselves against the day of wrath? |
A91855 | For till the Conscience be convinced of sin, how shall the heart be contrite for sin? |
A91855 | For, which of all those Abominations fore- mentioned is not England deeply guilty of? |
A91855 | God dwell there? |
A91855 | God will not dwell with the proud, hard, impenitent, unbelieving heart, yet will dwell with the contrite and humble spirit: What? |

A91855 | If you be holy, what do you to him? |
A91855 | In what sense is such a broken spirit here stiled The S ● crifices of God? |
A91855 | In what words shall I a little represent the sins of England, and the sins of your own soules unto you for the actuall mollifying of your hearts? |
A91855 | Is a truly broken spirit, such gratefull Sacrifices of God? |
A91855 | Is this thy kindnesse to thy God? |
A91855 | Oh, how is Truth, Peace, Union among Brethren, health and our many comforts broken? |
A91855 | Reflect now upon thy self ô Christian, where is thy Spirit of Supplication? |
A91855 | Sic veniemus ad deum? |
A91855 | The Psalm may be justly stiled Davids Recantation: How doth he bleed and melt for his bloody sins? |
A91855 | Then the betrayers and murderers of Christ can say, men and brethren what shall we do? |
A91855 | There is an hard Question in Divinity, whether Faith be not part of Repentance? |
A91855 | These are Gods Sacrifices, these God will not despise, and then ▪ who shall despise them? |
A91855 | They shall look upon me whom they have pierced: ther''e''s faith, for with what other eye can they behold Christ crucifyed? |
A91855 | They that despise, scorne, oppose, blaspheme the word of God, how farre are they from true penitentiall Contrition? |
A91855 | Thus saith the Lord, The heaven is my Throne, and the earth is my foot- stoole, where is the house that ye build unto mee? |
A91855 | Till the bea rt truely turn away from sin, how should it acceptably convert or return to God? |
A91855 | What Spirituall wrath doth God poure out upon hard hearts? |
A91855 | What Temporall vengeance inflicts hee for hardnesse of heart? |
A91855 | What is here meant by the word Spirit? |
A91855 | What is intended by a broken spirit? |
A91855 | Where is the place of my rest? |
A91855 | Where now is thine humility and spirituall poverty? |
A91855 | Where those mighty unutterable groanes and desires? |
A91855 | Whither are wee falling? |
A91855 | against Bathsheba''s chastity, by uncleannesse: against his owne body, the Temple of the holy Ghost, by defiling it? |
A91855 | and in earth ther''s none that I can desire besides thee? |
A91855 | and shall our hard hearts only remaine unbroken? |
A91855 | and where is the place of my rest? |
A91855 | as the publike Confession of Faith, and Catechism, besides many things in Church- Government,& c.? |
A91855 | d ● est thou thus requite the Lord oh foolish person and unwise? |
A91855 | had not David sinned against Vriiah''s life, by murdering him? |
A91855 | how deare is such a heart to God? |
A91855 | if sinfull, what doe you against him? |
A91855 | if they be habitually broken, how pleasing shall they be to God continually? |
A91855 | if thou beest hardened in spirituall pride, self- conceit,& c. how should a broken spirit lodge in thy brest? |
A91855 | nay for ground, manner, and end of all our penitentiall mournings for sinne, doe we not come short of duty? |
A91855 | saith, thou art my portion in the land of the living — whom have I in heaven but thee? |
A91855 | should these things still pass on without controule, what Religion shall we leave to our posterity? |
A91855 | the word is as fire, to ● o ● ● en and melt the iron: are our hearts stone? |
A91855 | till the heart be contrite and kindly broken for sin, how shall it forsake and turn away from sin? |
A91855 | where those wrastlings,& c. doest thou not know what a spirit of prayer meanes? |
A91855 | which of us would not be glad that our hearts and spirits might be truly acceptable to God? |

A42469 | 10.12, 13. was it not a sign, and a strange one too? |
A42469 | 9.4, 5. or do not our Astrologers ascribe the periods of Kingdomes to the Stars? |
A42469 | Again, suppose he did know the nature of them: what then? |
A42469 | Ah what an envious man was Paul, that would suffer them so to do? |

A42469 | And are not these such fopperies and fooleries as do justly deserve laughter? |
A42469 | And do we not find it in Gods Book made a note of Gods children, such as fear God, and even tremble at his word? |
A42469 | And do we not need some Oedipus to arreed and assoil us these riddles? |
A42469 | And doth not this man so? |

A42469 | And if to us, why not to mankind in general? |
A42469 | And is not this think we an irrefragable Argument? |
A42469 | And what is all this to Mr. L. his Clients teaching men to observe some as luckie, some as unluckie days? |
A42469 | And what is that at all to your purpose? |
A42469 | And what is the ground, think we, of this grievous charge, which he enters upon with such a passionate Exclamation? |
A42469 | And what, think we, would their principles be? |
A42469 | And who denies the Science of Astrologie, so far as it considers the site of the Stars to be lawful? |
A42469 | And why not this as wel as that? |
A42469 | And yet a litle after, What tumults and seditions all over the world did the effects of this Eclipse stir up? |

A57143 | So Ioshua did when Israel turned their backs before their enemies, what wilt thou do unto thy great Name? |
A57143 | So long as our lives are as bad as before, how can wee expect that our condition should bee better? |
A57143 | So we must conceive in our confessions and abrenuntiations of sin, that Christ asketh us, Are here all? |

A57143 | Such is the condition of a soule under wrath, that hath no apprehensions of God but in frost or fire; for who can stand before his cold? |

A57143 | The living, the living shall praise thee, saith Hezekiah; but how should they doe it? |
A57143 | The parts are these two generals: First, Gods promise enabling Israel to perform theirs: Ephraim shall say, What have I to doe any more with Idols? |
A57143 | The unsetledness of peace in the Kingdom, hath it awakened us to secure our peace with God? |
A57143 | Therefore in this case as a Samuel said to Iesse, Are here all thy children? |
A57143 | Thirdly, It is abundant and innumerable; who can number the drops of dew on the ground, or the haires of little raine? |
A57143 | This Act of discovery can not but exceedingly gaul the spirits of wicked men; it is like the voice of God unto Adam in Paradise, Adam, where art thou? |
A57143 | This evill is of the Lord, why should we wait for the Lord any longer? |

A57143 | and rulest not thou over all the kingdoms of the Heathen? |
A57143 | and that no man can know love or hatred by that which is before him? |
A57143 | and the next question is, What shall I doe? |
A57143 | and therefore love they have none; for how can that love any thing which knowes nothing? |
A57143 | and who am I, and what is my people saith David, that wee should bee able to offer so willingly? |
A57143 | and yet who more tender and fearfull of sin? |
A57143 | are these Agags spared and kept delicately, and canst thou please thy selfe in the thoughts of a sound repentance? |

A43579 | General Head to be explained in the Text and Doctrine, is, what is this lamenting after the Lord? |
A43579 | God forbid that we should say with Pharaoh, Who is the Lord? |
A43579 | God hath condescended to his Peoples supplications, why not yours? |
A43579 | God saith, If her Father had but spit in her face, should she not be ashamed seven daies? |
A43579 | Hath Converting Grace under Ordinances changed your hearts? |
A43579 | Hath God crushed and conquered that, and planted right Principles in you, to incline you to him? |
A43579 | Hath God set us in this office only to tell others of their faults? |
A43579 | Hath not God manifested himself more in his Providences for us, than of late? |
A43579 | Have there not been great Attempts made to quench the Light amongst us? |
A43579 | Have we not publick Ordinances? |
A43579 | Have we not reason to call to remembrance our own faults this day? |
A43579 | Have you not been forced to eat that which some have trodden under their feet, and to drink that which some men have fouled with their feet? |
A43579 | Have you not been in danger to be rockt asleep by such Truths as should have awakt you, and would, if faithfully mannaged? |
A43579 | Head is, Who are the Persons, People, that are to lament after the Lord? |
A43579 | How amicable doth converting grace make those that were at deadly and desperate feud? |
A43579 | How blessed a thing is it to twist interests with this lovely Society? |
A43579 | How can I endure to see or foresee the destruction of my own bowels? |
A43579 | How can it go well with me, when it goes ill with the Church? |
A43579 | How comes that to pass? |
A43579 | How doth it concern us? |
A43579 | How have David, Job, Heman, and all the Saints prized it? |
A43579 | How know you but death is at the next door? |
A43579 | How long must the Lord wait for your sensible lamentings? |
A43579 | How long shall intangling Orders for decency rend the bowels of thy Church? |
A43579 | How long shall the pride and wrath of men make and blow up that spark into a flame, that Satan the great make- bait casts among them? |
A43579 | How long shall thy vain thoughts lodge within thee? |
A43579 | How long will it be ere you attain to innocency? |
A43579 | How many Ahabs hate Micaiah''s, or Felix''s? |
A43579 | How shall I deliver thee Israel? |
A43579 | How shall I give thee up Ephraim? |
A43579 | How shall I make thee as Admah? |
A43579 | How? |
A43579 | However, you may stay him with your own Souls; Is that nothing? |
A43579 | I answer as Cleophas, Art thou only, a stranger in Jerusalem[ in England] and hast not known the things which are come to pass there in these days? |
A43579 | I hearkened and heard saith God, but they spake not aright: What was that? |
A43579 | I may be deceived and misled into by- ways of errour? |
A43579 | I profess my self to be a Member of that Mystical Body the Church, and how can a Member rejoyce when the whole Body mourns? |
A43579 | If Christ stay not where''s the Church? |
A43579 | If God help us, will not this turn to your advantage? |
A43579 | If it be answered, no, he''s gone in whole or in part, what''s then left that''s good? |
A43579 | If the Lord be with us, why then is all this befallen us? |
A43579 | If the touching of one String of an Instrument make the rest move, how can I forbear a sad Eccho to the Church''s mournful Elegy? |
A43579 | If you ask what things? |
A43579 | Is Ephraim my dear Son? |
A43579 | Is it not rather, ground of the greatest lamentatation, as a prologue, and pledge of damnation, and a token of rejection? |
A43579 | Is it not time to seek God till he come and Rain Righteousness upon us? |
A43579 | Is not God bringing our iniquities upon us? |
A43579 | Is not God much withdrawn from the hearts of his People? |
A43579 | Is not Manasse ● against Ephraim, and Ephraim against Manasseh, and they together against Judah? |
A43579 | Is not converting grace much withdrawn from the Ordinances of God? |
A43579 | Is not our God worth lamenting after? |
A43579 | Is not restraining grace much gone from amongst us? |
A43579 | Is not the God of Ordinances much removed from amongst us? |
A43579 | Is not the accursed thing to be found amongst us to this day? |
A43579 | Is not the liberty that some take in their dispensing Ordinances under many disadvantages? |
A43579 | Is there no Rod strong enough for bearing such a weight? |
A43579 | Is there not a cause? |
A43579 | Is there not excellent Preaching in Publick Places? |
A43579 | Is there not in them, even in them, sins enow to weaken and evacuate their own Prayers? |
A43579 | Is there not much pride, worldliness, decay of love to God, abating spiritual zeal for God, such as was in the daies of old? |
A43579 | Is there to be sound that entireness, singleness, faithfulness amongst God''s People to each other as in former daies? |
A43579 | It doth concern all Converts, and such as turn from transgression in Jacob; and am not I one of these? |
A43579 | It''s well so, for when people stand still, pose themselves, what have we been doing? |
A43579 | Let Ministers and People, lay their hand on their heart, and search our Consciences& Conversations? |
A43579 | Let us fall close to our work of Preaching, reforming, praying, calling God again; who knows but if we mourn to our People but they may lament? |
A43579 | Little reason have any to make this ado in lamenting: What cause have you to lament? |
A43579 | Look down from Heaven, and behold from the habitation of thy Holiness, and of thy Glory: Shall the needy alwaies be forgotten? |
A43579 | Lord, art not thou in the midst of us? |
A43579 | Lord, when shall Conscience- racking Oaths be broken? |
A43579 | May he not say, Go to the gods and lusts which you have served, gratified? |
A43579 | May not the poor wise man deliver the City? |
A43579 | May we also pass through this Valley of Bacah( or weeping) and make a Well? |
A43579 | Ministers cry out, Who hath believed our Report? |
A43579 | Must they and we meet in Hell? |
A43579 | Oh my Lord, if the Lord be with us, why then is all this befallen us? |
A43579 | Oh that more might knock at our doors with a[ What must I do to be saved?] |
A43579 | Oh that this work were set forward? |
A43579 | Oh what a day will that be? |
A43579 | Oh when sickness, diseases, death, thy own conscience make war against thee, and thou hast no God to flee to what a sad case wilt thou be in? |
A43579 | Once more; Is there no cause for Gods Children to lament after the Lord for his return to their Spirits? |
A43579 | Or, Let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me; and he shall make peace with me; And is this nothing? |
A43579 | Shall a poor Idolatrous Micah cry out after his Teraphim? |
A43579 | Shall not Children cry and long for the sincere milk of the word that they may grow thereby? |
A43579 | Shall not her dewy Eyes cause mine Eyes to water? |
A43579 | Such as study Gods interest, have the Lord to study their interest? |
A43579 | Tell me, deal ingenuously and candidly in the case; Have not your Souls been ready to pine for want of provision? |
A43579 | The Old Puritan- Spirit is gone; we are wofully degenerated: Professors are grown like the world: How unlike are we to Primitive Saints? |
A43579 | The full stomach loaths the honey- comb, but to the hungry Soul every bitter thing is Sweet: Oh what pantings? |
A43579 | This is no controverted Point, but a granted duty on all hands, I am persuading to: Who dare contradict it? |
A43579 | To whom will ye flee for help, and where will ye leave your glory? |
A43579 | We have been long in the fire, but are we cleansed? |
A43579 | We have conversed about our Farms, Oxen, Sheep, Trades together, shall we not at last begin to converse with each other as Christians? |

A43579 | What Providences were produced to settle Ordinances? |
A43579 | What advantage hath the Jew? |

A43579 | What exceptions can any bring against this, of lamenting after the Lord? |
A43579 | What should God''s Children do, were it not for this priviledge of praying? |
A43579 | What think you? |
A43579 | What want you from Ordinances, that the Alsufficient God can not supply you with? |
A43579 | What wantest thou? |
A43579 | What will become of such as are born in sin, if they want means of Conviction and Conversion? |
A43579 | What''s become of that sighing frame of heart, that Spirit of Adoption, that God''s Children of old were indued with? |
A43579 | What''s meant by the Ark here? |
A43579 | What''s meant by the Arks being in Aibnadab''s house in Kirjath- jearim? |
A43579 | What''s the matter with thee? |
A43579 | What''s the reason then that God is not quite gone? |
A43579 | When at last will God raise up some awakening Samuel, that shall sound the Alarum in the Ears of all Israel? |
A43579 | When he reflects on himself& and finds it so, will he not see sad cause to lament? |
A43579 | When shall Aaron''s Rod bring forth ripe Almonds? |
A43579 | When shall Subscription to Christ''s Laws suffice? |
A43579 | When that sad Plague of Sweating Sickness was here in England, how much were proud Nobles in seeming love with faithful Ministers? |
A43579 | When will men see the hand of Joab is in all this? |

A43579 | Where are those genuine workings of Child- like bowels after such a Father? |
A43579 | Where is the Lord God of Elijah? |
A43579 | Where is there a Moses, to hold up his hands, a Joshua to fall at God''s feet, a Phinehas to execute Justice? |
A43579 | Where shall we find Elijah''s Spirit doubled on succeeding Elisha? |
A43579 | Who knoweth if he will return and repent, and leave a blessing behind him? |
A43579 | Who must hold him if you will not? |
A43579 | Who would have once imagined that such a Spirit of worldliness, security neutrality would have seized on Gods own Children? |
A43579 | Who would have thought that God himself or the tokens of his presence should go from you without weeping eyes, or mournful complaints? |
A43579 | Who would not follow after such a God with prayers, tears, groans, and hearty lamentations, that he would return to us, continue with us? |
A43579 | Why did they not send it to Shilo where it was before? |

A43579 | Why may not we also work hard in these Sacred Wells of Ordinances? |

A43579 | Will any but Mad men rejoyce at the approach of calamity, upon themselves? |
A43579 | Will even careless women lament at last for the teats, for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine? |
A43579 | Yea among our selves, Is there not some that are indifferent whether the Ark or Mass, Gospel- preaching, or dumb Idols take place? |
A43579 | Yea, hath not God seemed to take Peace from the Earth? |
A43579 | Yea, have you not been tempted to loath some dishes handed to you by blind or Slovenly Cooks? |
A43579 | Yea, who dare dispute it? |
A43579 | Yea, why shouldest thou be as a stranger in the Land, and as a wayfaring man that turneth aside to tarry for a night? |
A43579 | You''l say, What''s all this Canting for? |
A43579 | and discern at last that among all these contending Clients, none is gainer but that common Barreter? |
A43579 | and what is this that ye say unto me, What aileth thee? |
A43579 | and where be all his Miracles which our Fathers told us of? |
A43579 | but where''s our real longing to enjoy the Lord in his Ordinances? |
A43579 | certainly the Lord comes and goes as if he were loth to punish us, and is not this a very great incouragement to us to lament after him? |
A43579 | cryed they, one to another, Brother, Neighbour, do not you hear these heavy Tydings? |
A43579 | either the God of Ordinances, or the Ordinances of God? |
A43579 | have we done well or ill? |

A55226 | 7 Ye offer polluted bread upon mine Altar, and ye say, Wherein have we polluted thee? |
A55226 | 8 And if ye offer the blind for sacrifice, is it not evil? |
A55226 | 9 And now I pray you, beseech God, that he will be gracious unto us: this hath been by your means: will he regard your persons? |

A70812 | ( How many speake so of this most necessary defence, which their owne Consciences still tell them is the Command of God?) |
A70812 | ( every one that will say so) How then shall your Armies be made up? |
A70812 | ( not to speake of many of our frowardnesses, when our selves only are in fault) and even visibly manifest Vnbeleefe and Distrust? |
A70812 | 12, 13, 14. Who is the wise man that may understand this? |
A70812 | 21, I will send a sward among you, to avenge the quarrell of my Covenant? |
A70812 | Adding hereunto the latter part of the sixth verse, Wherefore should GOD be angry with thee and destroy the work of thy hands? |
A70812 | And afterward, how ill can we endure to have any complaint against them, when yet there is all the reason in the world to complaine? |
A70812 | And doe we not see the like in the other Sacrament? |
A70812 | And forgettest the LORD thy Maker? |
A70812 | And have not we our selves found somewhat like this, more then once? |
A70812 | And how can these then be tolerated without Breach of Covenant? |
A70812 | And if He take vengeance upon their sins, even as theirs, shall not we be enwrapped in the mischief of in? |
A70812 | And if the Righteous shall scarcely be saved where shall the Vngodly and the Sinner appeare? |
A70812 | And if they should now conquer for us, what shall we doe with them afterward? |
A70812 | And indeed doe we not very often thinke this excuse enough for us; that the generall Sway of people goes thus, and they will have it so and so? |
A70812 | And is not Anabaptisma, at least as, maintain''d by divers, Schisme, and contrary to sound Doctrine? |
A70812 | And then that in the second place, Enquiry should be made for what Speciall Provocations it is that there are such heavy Judgements on the Land? |
A70812 | And what Idolater, or seduced Prophet, might not( or may not) plead his Conscience? |
A70812 | And what is this but want of Faith in GOD? |
A70812 | And why should not we looke for the like, if we were as Zealous for GOD, and trusted as much in GOD, as he? |
A70812 | Are mens matters worthy more regard then GODS? |
A70812 | Are not here fearefull inventions for Him to take vengeance upon? |
A70812 | Are not many apparently worse then they were wo nt to be? |
A70812 | Behold the Righteous shall be recompensed in the earth, how much more the wicked and the sinner? |
A70812 | But I pray, judge but in a few Instances, whether all pretence of Conscience ought to be a sufficient plea for Toleration and Liberty? |
A70812 | But how is the case altered if it prove to be a child or a kinsman, a friend or even but a servant? |
A70812 | But how will GOD take this at our hands, doe we thinke? |
A70812 | But specially how did GOD take it at Elies hand, though a good man? |
A70812 | Can this be possible, that from a heart so calmed and setled in Faith and Joy, such a suddaine storme should arise of monstrous and horrid impatience? |
A70812 | Doe we intend to keepe them in order then? |

A70812 | How doth our affection oft commend them to places of Imployment and Trust, beyond their abilities or merit? |

A70812 | How few are there of us, that can afford to venture upon undertakings that are like to provoke the wrath of men, specially great men, against us? |
A70812 | How low had our sins brought us the last yeere about this time? |
A70812 | How many Errors, and strange opinions are there to be found even among such as are all pretenders to the way of Truth? |
A70812 | I beseech you, if GOD will have it to be unalterable,( as He will if His Word tell us so much) shall we dare to say, We will not have it so? |
A70812 | If any say, Their Conscience allowes them not to Contribute to your Just and Necessary Defence, shall they be allowed this Liberty? |
A70812 | If any say, these all, or most of them, are belonging to the Second Table, and the Liberty pleaded for, is onely in matters of the First Table? |
A70812 | If any shall say, But would not GOD have a Multitude forborne, if they be in an Errour, or Disorder? |
A70812 | If others say, their Consciences allow not them to beare Armes for you, shall they have altogether their Liberty? |
A70812 | If these things be done in the greene Tree, what shall be done in the Dry? |
A70812 | In a word, what outrage of wickednesse is there that we have not just cause to beleeve to be too ordinary among our people? |
A70812 | Is it not for this that GOD hath put the sword of Justice into your hands? |
A70812 | Is not this the quarrell of the warre, because Delinquents are protected against the hand of Justice? |
A70812 | Is there not much selfe- seeking apparant in all kind of undertakings? |
A70812 | Is this the fruit of our Covenant? |
A70812 | Is this, think we, the amendment that GOD lookes for at our hands? |
A70812 | Let us therefore looke what we have done all of us in pursuit of our Covenant? |
A70812 | May not a Multitude be forborne in Errour? |
A70812 | Now is there not among us a great deale of guilt in this kind? |
A70812 | Now what was that which made him doe thus? |
A70812 | Or can you, without destraying all bonds of Civill Converse, and wholly overthrow of all Humane Judicature? |
A70812 | Or may We endure them, without His displeasure against our selves? |
A70812 | Or what Bounds or Limits can there be set to men any way, if this opinion of Liberty of Conscience, as it is pleaded for, shall be admitted? |
A70812 | Or who can almost find in his heart to engage himselfe in a taske, whose certainest wages from men is like to be displeasure and rage? |

A70812 | There be those that say their Conscience is against all taking of an Oath before a Magistrate? |
A70812 | Was this the meaning of any in this particular, to promise enough, but intend to performe nothing? |
A70812 | Weepe for your selves and for your children, for if these things be done in the greene tree, what shall be done in the dry? |
A70812 | What shall GOD doe with us, if all these things will not amend us? |
A70812 | What should I speake of Oathes, Cursings and Blasphemies? |
A70812 | What we have neglected? |
A70812 | What would become then of all your own Authority, and of all Lawes, and Liberties of the Kingdome? |
A70812 | Where then will your Armies be paid? |
A70812 | Will Christ, I say, endure these things? |
A70812 | Will you allow an Vniversall Liberty of this? |
A70812 | Would you know who they are? |
A70812 | Ye stand upon your sword, ye work abomination and ye defile every one his neighbours wife, and shall ye possesse the Land? |
A70812 | You eate with the blood, and lift up your eyes toward your Idols and shedde blood, and shall ye possesse the Land? |
A70812 | You thus and thus misbehave your selves, and shall you have peace? |
A70812 | ambitious putting themselves forward, and practises to make themselves rich, by every imployment? |
A70812 | and even upon some parts of our owne Kingdome and Nation? |
A70812 | and frequently cry that things grow every day worse and worse; and that we are not able to abide it if it continue thus with us but a while longer? |
A70812 | and how little doe we usually tremble at the hearing of them? |
A70812 | and however, is it not apparently most contrary to the Power of Godlinesse? |
A70812 | and in stead thereof to have our spirits ensnared( enslaved) with the Feare of Men? |
A70812 | and possibly even to be their Agents and Instruments to doe very badde Acts for them and with them? |
A70812 | and prove corruptors of others, that now seeme to be of a better temper? |
A70812 | and so purposed, and practised from time to time? |
A70812 | and tell Him they meane nothing lesse then to be humbled in heart before Him? |
A70812 | and the Church of GOD peaceably setled in a holy Reformation? |
A70812 | and upon this Venture upon Actions which GOD hath not allowed us? |
A70812 | and what we are yet a doing? |
A70812 | and who is he to whom the mouth of the LORD hath spoken, that he may declare it? |
A70812 | how partiall are we to those that are our own? |
A70812 | or at least now are they at liberty to doe nothing of what they have so solemnely and sacredly promised and sworne? |
A70812 | or delayed? |
A70812 | or how did GOD take it at Samuels hands, that he was so partiall to his sons, as hath been noted? |
A70812 | or suffer them to plead that they have merited an exemption from all restraint of their licentiousnesse? |
A70812 | or that such and such thinke or speake so as well as we, and gave us the example before we ventured upon it? |
A70812 | shall you have setling? |
A70812 | shall you possesse the Land? |
A70812 | that for One Achan not sought out, Israels Army was overthrowne? |
A70812 | that the pretence of Conscience shall claime a Liberty in that which concernes GODS Honour, and not in that which concernes men? |

A76561 | Because of thee in death there shall no more remembrance be: Of those that in the grave do ly, who shall give thanks to thee? |
A76561 | Because those that deceased are, Of thee shall no remembrance have: And who is he that will to thee Give praises lying in the grave? |

A90266 | 21. which the Prophet also admires in the forecited Psalme: the Sea saw it and fled: what ayledst thou, O thou Sea that thou fledst? |
A90266 | 4, 5? |
A90266 | 6. f In caelo non in terramercedem promisit reddendam: quid alibi poscisquod alibi debitur? |
A90266 | 7, 8, 9? |
A90266 | 9. and when that is done, who shall keep bound what God will loose? |
A90266 | Again was thine Anger? |
A90266 | Against the Rivers or Flouds? |
A90266 | Are not the severall tunes, of mercy and judgement in these songs? |
A90266 | Are their souls think you more precicious to you then themselves? |
A90266 | Are thy lusts like the streames of Jordan, yet they runne back from his Chariots of salvation? |
A90266 | Art not thou it that dried the sea, the waters of the great deep, that hath made the depths of the sea a way for the ransomed to passe over? |
A90266 | Because a womans time is come, therefore shall she have no midwife? |
A90266 | But what if it should prove in the close, that they have followed divine Directions? |
A90266 | But when they are by themselves they cry, what shall we do? |
A90266 | Can a servant do his masters work, without knowing his pleasure? |
A90266 | Can a woman forget her child, that she should not have compassion on the sonne of her wombe? |
A90266 | Did the people receive no other refreshment, but only in respect of their bodily thirst? |
A90266 | Do you not then fight against God, wound Jesus Christ, and prosecute him as an evil doer? |
A90266 | Do you think if our Armies had not walked in a troden path they could have made such journeys as they have done of late? |
A90266 | Friend art thou stronger then Horeb, yet that trembled at the presence of this mighty God, whom it never had provoked? |
A90266 | God is ingaged to his people for all their injoyments, and will he quietly suffer himselfe to be robbed and his people spoyled? |
A90266 | God( saith the Apostle) hath delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver, now what conclusion makes he of this experience? |
A90266 | Had not this mighty all- commanding God been with us, where had we been in the late tumults? |
A90266 | Hast thou not known? |
A90266 | Hath not all hold of promises in time of triall given place to temptations, untill you have fallen down in All- sufficiency, and their found peace? |
A90266 | Have none of us skill to lay up the last eminent deliverance against a rainy day? |
A90266 | Have we not seen this end of many Zelots? |
A90266 | Have we seene nothing of this in our days? |
A90266 | Have your souls in spirituall trials never bin driven from all your outworks, unto this main fort? |
A90266 | He appeares not unto me, how can they go upon his Imployment? |
A90266 | He did deliver me from the mouth of the Lyon:( Nero that Lion- like tyrant) and what then? |
A90266 | How came it to passe that we were not swallowed up by them? |
A90266 | How doe''s David run them over with admiration, closing every stop with, His mercy endureth for ever? |
A90266 | How many Psalmes have wee that are taken up in setting forth Gods breaking, yoking, befooling, terrifying his Adversaries at such a season? |
A90266 | If God appeares not in light, who can expect he should appeare in operation? |
A90266 | If God call Israel out of Egypt to serve him, shall Pharaoh assigne who, and how they shall go, First men onely, then all without their cattel? |
A90266 | If a man hath ingaged himselfe to give a Jewell to a deare friend, will he take it patiently to have an enemy come and snatch it away before his face? |
A90266 | If he hath given Seir to Edom, what doth he vexing and wasting Jacob? |
A90266 | If the Lion roars, who can but fear? |
A90266 | Is it for any of you, O ye sons of men, to measure out Gods childrens portion, long since bequeathed them by Christ? |
A90266 | Is it not for touching these forbidden things? |
A90266 | Is it not from hence, that nothing can stand against the breakingout of a promise, in its appointed season? |
A90266 | Is it not so in our days? |
A90266 | Is it not worth the while to consider how they were restrained? |
A90266 | Is not the wasting of the Westerne Nations, at this day from hence, that they have served the whore to deck her selfe, with the spoyles of the spouse? |
A90266 | Is not this written also for their instruction, who have no skill in Hebrew Songs? |
A90266 | Is the Sea against them? |
A90266 | Is there nothing but flints in this Rock? |
A90266 | Lord, what are we, and what is our house that thou shouldest doe such things for us? |
A90266 | No Seas divided? |
A90266 | Nothing of Goodnesse that after so long waiting for Advantage, they begin themselves to think, that neither Divination nor Inchantment will prevaile? |
A90266 | Nothing of power in their restraint? |
A90266 | Nothing of wisdome in the selfe- punishment of their anxious thoughts? |
A90266 | Now being thus advantaged, thus incouraged, thus provoked, and resolved, why did they not attempt it, why did they not accomplish their Desires? |
A90266 | Now if all these should be kept from us at that distance wherein they fall in their accomplishment in respect of time, what would they availe us? |
A90266 | O what a catalogue of mercies, hath this Nation to plead by in a time of trouble? |
A90266 | Serm 50. g Si Tanti vitrum quanti Margaritum? |
A90266 | Shall a Lyon tremble and thou not afraid, who art ready to tremble with a thought of that poore creature? |
A90266 | Shall all creatures quake for the sin of man, and sinfull man be secure? |
A90266 | Shall others dwell quietly in the Land which he hath measured for his own? |
A90266 | Shall the Heavens bow, the deepe begge for mercy, and thou be senselesse? |
A90266 | Shall they not possesse what the Lord their God gives them to possesse? |
A90266 | Should the Lord entrust his people with a continued stock of mercy, perhaps they would be full and deny him, and say who is the Lord? |
A90266 | Should you now smite them? |
A90266 | Such mighty works attend the Israelites, what thinkes Midian will be the end of this? |
A90266 | The chiefe Priests and Pharisees, having gotten the Apostles before them, what big words they use to countenance the businesse? |
A90266 | Thinke you, will God let his people want that which they have absolute necessity of? |
A90266 | To be answered in righteousnesse, what sweeter mercy in the World? |
A90266 | Upon all Gods appearances with the Apostles, how were the Jews cut to the heart, vexed, perplexed? |
A90266 | VVas not his Justice exalted, in keeping them onely for the pit which they had digged for others? |
A90266 | Was not one main end of the late tumults, to rob Gods people of their priviledges, to bring them again under the yoke of superstition? |
A90266 | Was not this Rock, a signe of that Rock of Ages on which the Church is built? |
A90266 | Was the Lord displeased against the Rivers? |
A90266 | Was the Lord displeased against the Rivers? |
A90266 | Was the Lord displeased{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman} kindled, did he burne? |
A90266 | Was thine anger? |
A90266 | What God brake in warre, do not think he will prosper in Peace? |
A90266 | What aylest thou O Jordan that thou wast driven back? |
A90266 | What creature hath not this mighty God used against his enemies? |
A90266 | What is the reason, that so many in our days, set their hands to the plow, and looke back againe? |
A90266 | What shall wee say to these things, If the Lord be for us, who shall be against us? |
A90266 | What though wee had no Army in the time of war? |
A90266 | Whence is it, that he hath now the necks of his enemies, and hath given any of them their lives at their intreaty? |
A90266 | Who can stand before him, qui tot imperat legionibus? |
A90266 | Who hath not with joy delight and raysed affections, gone over the old preservations of the Church in former years? |
A90266 | Who would not feare this King of Nations? |
A90266 | Why he will so doe? |
A90266 | Will a tender Father thinke you, contentedly looke on, and see a slave snatch away his childrens bread? |
A90266 | and whereunto will this grow? |
A90266 | begin to serve providence in great things, but can not finish? |
A90266 | casting down of mighty ones, reviving of Dead bones, opening of prison- doores, bringing out the captive appointed to be slaine? |
A90266 | doth he bring them forth to burne the whore, to fight with the Beast and overcome him, and his followers? |
A90266 | g Shall men remove his bounds, and land- markes, and be free? |
A90266 | greater Armies then this, have bin buried under lesser walles; did not the number of the besieged at first, exceed the number of the besiegers? |
A90266 | hast thou not heard that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creatour of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? |
A90266 | is not here Affliction and deliverance, desertion and recovery, darkenesse and light, in this variously? |
A90266 | is not the day of those factious Independents come? |
A90266 | it shall be parted; Is Jordan in the way? |
A90266 | know you not that the time is comming wherein such men will desire the trembling Rockes, to be a covert to their more affrighted soules? |
A90266 | no Hills made to tremble? |
A90266 | no Jordans driven back? |
A90266 | no Mountaines revelled? |
A90266 | nothing but the Rod of Moses in the blowes given to it? |
A90266 | nothing but water in these streames? |
A90266 | shall they not divide the prey? |
A90266 | so many thousands in Kent, so many in Wales, so many in the North, so many in Essex, shall they not speed? |
A90266 | speak blood, is that the way of Jesus Christ? |
A90266 | their skill in war amongst men of their own perswasion, famous and renowned? |
A90266 | thy troubling anger( so the word) against the Sea? |
A90266 | was his Anger against the Walls and Houses, that he rode upon his Horses and Chariots of Salvation? |
A90266 | was the Lord displeased with the Rivers? |
A90266 | was thine anger against the Rivers? |
A90266 | was thine anger against the Rivers? |
A90266 | was thy wrath against the Sea, that thou diddest ride upon thy Horses and thy Chariots of salvation? |
A90266 | was thy wrath against the Sea, that thou didst ride upon thine horses, and thy charets of salvation? |
A90266 | were not their Advantages great? |
A90266 | what strong mighty impression of power was on thee, that the multitudes of thy waters should be parted, and thy chanell discovered dry to the bottome? |
A90266 | whence then was the late confusion of Armies? |
A90266 | who gave you this power? |
A90266 | will he not plead his Action with power? |
A90266 | will it be easy and cheape? |
A90266 | will it be safe trespassing upon the Lands of the Almighty? |
A41142 | 12.39, 40. could they excuse themselves for their can not? |
A41142 | 23. have I any pleasure, I appeale to all your consciences, have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should dye? |
A41142 | A servant can not live except it be his Masters pleasure to take pitty on him; Is this any pretence to him to anger his Master? |
A41142 | Adam fell and his poor posterity smart for it, if God will needs damne us he may, we have no power for to help it, for who hath resisted his Will? |
A41142 | Ah thou wretch thou, thy blood lies on thine owne head; why then dost thou not now put thy selfe forth? |
A41142 | Alas I am very dead- hearted sayst thou; nay, but O man the time was when God quickned thee at a Sermon, why didst thou let it decay? |
A41142 | Alas he was not able to answer, oh Sir I could not do otherwise? |
A41142 | And that yee have omitted many a good opportunity, that by the grace of God yee might have made use of? |
A41142 | And the Levits came to him, from Jeroboam, so long hee was pleased, and then hee was religious, but afterwards not; and why not afterwards too? |
A41142 | And therefore every little cold shall serve for an excuse; So why art thou slothfull to count every petty difficulty a can not? |
A41142 | And therefore hee had mercy to resist, nay and wisdome one would thinke to resist too, what a wilfull foole? |
A41142 | And therefore it is in thee, why then wilt thou not put thy selfe forth? |
A41142 | And therefore this same copulative will is nothing but a mockery, and the truth still is this thou wilt not? |
A41142 | And what excuse hast thou hence? |
A41142 | And what have riches and meanes advantaged us? |
A41142 | And wilt thou lay the blame upon God? |
A41142 | Are the lusts of anger and wrath predominant in thee? |
A41142 | As Christ told Jerusalem, I would, but you would not; what followes? |
A41142 | As if he should say, would you faine stay? |
A41142 | As the King of Nineveh said, le ts cry mightily to God; le ts cast away these and these sinnes, who knowes if God will turne and repent? |
A41142 | Be vext then with thy wicked will, what a madde man am I? |
A41142 | Before thou didst promise,''t was in thy power whether thou wouldst promise or no; did any force thee to promise? |
A41142 | Bernard sayes such a one is a perverse man, that God is feigne to say to, quid faciam tibi? |
A41142 | But what can yee do? |
A41142 | But why canst thou not prevent it with counsell and deliberation? |
A41142 | By appealing to their consciences, have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should dye saith the Lord? |
A41142 | By retorting, heare now O house of Jsrael is not my way equall? |
A41142 | By what meanes may I go up to London? |
A41142 | Can not cast him out? |
A41142 | Canst thou not be holy, and saved, except he be pleased to pitty thee? |
A41142 | Canst thou not shed teares for thy sinnes? |
A41142 | Canst thou not spare an houre every day for private Prayer unto God, sometime for to meditate and belabour thy heart? |
A41142 | Canst thou not tell how to glorify God? |
A41142 | Canst thou not use these and these meanes, I appoint thee? |
A41142 | Christ hath not told thee any thing to the contrary, but only he bids thee do what thou canst; canst thou not cut off thy long haire? |
A41142 | Couple light and darknesse? |
A41142 | Despaire? |
A41142 | Do not ye confesse it with shame that you have given way to sundry temptations that by the grace of God yee might have overcome? |
A41142 | Dost thou lay the blame upon nature, my nature is more subject to choler, and wrath? |
A41142 | Dost thou not know that judgement is past upon all to damnation? |
A41142 | Dost thou say I would obey Christ, and J would deny selfe, why then dost thou not command thy Clerke for to writ it? |
A41142 | Dost thou walke in these wayes and hope to finde good? |
A41142 | Fifthly, your destruction is pittilesse; what eye can pitty you? |
A41142 | First, Is it not enough that thou hast willingly fallen in Adam, but thou must willingly stand out againe? |
A41142 | First, because God doth complaine against the wicked for the voluntary doing no more good then they doe; what so much preaching and no more good? |
A41142 | First, then why dost thou not see thy case to be damnable? |
A41142 | For it s hee that disposeth of mens natures; and therefore, thou takest part with those wretches that said, why hast thou made mee thus? |
A41142 | For what hast thou that thou hast not received? |
A41142 | God forbid? |
A41142 | God hath given thee good memory, how hast thou stuft it? |
A41142 | God now calls thee to meanes of grace, thou hast stood out once all ready, and wilt thou be wilfull to stand out againe? |
A41142 | Gods displeasure is greater then the Kings? |
A41142 | Hast thou not power over thine owne outward members vouchsaf''d thee of God? |
A41142 | He would not let the children of Israel goe: thy will nots these are they that harden thy heart; doest thou complaine of the hardnesse of thy heart? |
A41142 | Hence it is that the whoremaster he can plead, did not David commit adultery too? |
A41142 | How dost thou desire to be edified, when thou wilt not stir out two or three miles to be edifyed? |
A41142 | How is it that I heare this of thee? |
A41142 | How long wilt thou? |
A41142 | How may I get faith, and be lead by the spirit? |
A41142 | How often would I have gathered thee together even as the Hen gathereth her chickens but thou wouldest not? |
A41142 | I am naked sayes Adam, and who tould thee that thou wert naked? |
A41142 | I answer thee, who can tell best what is in thee, God or thine owne heart? |
A41142 | I be stubborne against the Commandements of God? |
A41142 | I can not abide it; what never helpe my selfe at a dead lift by telling a lie? |
A41142 | I can not be a Saint, Lord help me to mercy,& c. Yea but what canst thou do? |
A41142 | I can not do as I would sayst thou; No; why then art thou slothfull, to make more imaginary cannots? |
A41142 | I can not go about my worke sayes hee; and who bad him be so idle as not to go about it, when he might? |
A41142 | I can not profit by hearing, nor profit by praying,& c. Thou canst not say so; for why dost thou not labour? |
A41142 | I can not repent and I can not give over my sinnes sayest thou, and I pray thee who told thee that thou canst not? |
A41142 | I can not saith hee repent, nor be such a new creature as you talke of; Why then wilt thou not use the meanes? |
A41142 | I can not turne mine owne heart, nor breake mine own heart; but why then art thou slothfull to make every little diffiuclty a can not? |
A41142 | I could not do thus, and I could not do that; where are my goods that I lent thee? |
A41142 | I do not know how; No? |
A41142 | I hate the Saints of God? |
A41142 | I know this is not enough; but what of that? |
A41142 | I say the the first question Christ askes thee is, what canst thou do? |
A41142 | I say this will strike you all dumbe before God at the last day; why would you not put you selves forth? |
A41142 | I shall be prickt, I can not get over it; what? |
A41142 | I was not able to do better, quo ore potes hoc dicere? |
A41142 | I would sayd God, but you would not; nay how often would I but you would not? |
A41142 | I''le never hate them while I live; and yet come to this Saint and that Saint; him thou wilt hate; him? |
A41142 | If his Bed were the Plough, and his Pillow the Teeme, hee would then drive it well? |
A41142 | If thy lusts be on fire why dost thou feede them with fuell? |
A41142 | In the fifth place, to you that stand out in your wilfullnesse still; is it so that yee sticke at a will not? |
A41142 | In the third place, is it so, that the reason why thou dost not amend, is not because thou canst not, but onely because thou wilt not? |
A41142 | Is it because I am swift to revenge? |
A41142 | Is it because I will destroy you for Ahaz or Manasses, or Zedekiahs, or Adams sinne? |
A41142 | Is it because ye have no Saviour? |
A41142 | Is it because ye have no power? |
A41142 | Is it not enough that thou hast willingly fallen in Adam, but thou must willingly stand out again? |
A41142 | Is it this labour for grace and He ● v ● a, when thou laborest so id ● ely? |
A41142 | It s true God doth not give them power to believe, and to be renewed; but can they say though I wouldse riously, God would not? |
A41142 | Nay how dost thou know but when thou goest about it, thou mayest meet with, though some power? |
A41142 | No not use the meanes for to do it? |
A41142 | No the Lord had set them in the stocks for their wilfullnesse and security? |
A41142 | No, thou wilt not, canst thou not do this that God bids thee at least out of feare? |
A41142 | No; The meate standeth before him; because hee hath not any hands? |
A41142 | No? |
A41142 | No? |
A41142 | No? |
A41142 | Now hee le be spoken with, if you wilt come hither; What not erect his feare up in his family? |
A41142 | O Ephraim what shall I do unto thee? |
A41142 | O what infinite reason hast thou to be humbled, that despisest the Lord? |
A41142 | O what infinite reason hath the Lord to correct us, every one of us all? |
A41142 | Oathes why dost thou not club downe thy lusts with argument upon argument? |
A41142 | Oh beloved, this same point will strike the World dumbe before God, even this, why did yee not put your selves forth to the uttmost? |
A41142 | Oh then let us stirre up our selves, shall we sinne against gospel? |
A41142 | Oh thou wicked and sloathfull servant,& c. Why didst thou not trade with the Talent that J gave thee? |
A41142 | Peter saith to Ananias why hath Satan filled thy heart to ly to the holy Ghost, to keepe back part of the price of the Land? |
A41142 | Quid agit liberum arbitrium? |
A41142 | Quis poterit? |
A41142 | Secondly, but I can not sayst thou; why then wilt thou not dispaire in thy selfe? |
A41142 | Sloth is a voluntary fault of the will; How long wilt thou sleep O sluggard? |
A41142 | So God is very reasonable in his anger; wilt thou not use the meanes to be quickned? |
A41142 | So Lord, how if they will not? |
A41142 | So dost thou say, I can not do thus and thus; why then art thou slothfull to imagine more cannots, and Thorne hedges then there are? |
A41142 | So may I say who told thee thou canst not? |
A41142 | So may I say, is your willing apostacy in Adam too little for you, from the which yee are not cleansed to this day? |
A41142 | So the first question he puts to thee is, what wilt thou? |
A41142 | So the wicked complain, alas God hath not sowen any power of conversion in my heart, and will hee looke for to reape it? |
A41142 | So thou art wilfull, and thou wilt do thus; Oh do not do it, the Lord hath forbidden thee? |
A41142 | So, is this the labour that I have chosen? |
A41142 | Some Authors alleadge five whies more, why will ye,& c. Is it for this cause or that cause or that? |
A41142 | Stirre up your selves yee whose heart the Lord hath awakened; Though the wicked bee slothfull, will yee be slothfull also? |
A41142 | Suppose thou canst not quicken thy selfe, but wilt thou not see about the meanes? |
A41142 | That''s better then nothing; if thou canst not do it for love, yet why canst thou not do it for feare? |
A41142 | The Lord hath given thee counsells on this fashion; why dost thou not use them? |
A41142 | The Theife on the Crosse did not he repent at last gaspe? |
A41142 | The first question Christ askes thee is this, what canst thou do? |
A41142 | The man in the Gospel that had not on the Wedding garment, could hee say, Lord, I was not able to go to the shop of the Gospel to seeke one? |
A41142 | Then the wicked shall say; What hath pride profited us? |
A41142 | There is misery enough on the Church, and why can not wee mourne? |
A41142 | There is teaching in abundance, and why can not wee learne? |
A41142 | There is woe enough a comming, and why can not wee provide for''t aforehand? |
A41142 | Thirdly, but I can not pull downe my owne heart, nor master mine one will sayst thou; no? |
A41142 | Thou canst not speake for God, thou canst not be angry against sinne, nor lay to heart the miseries of Gods Church? |
A41142 | Thou hast the opportunity by thee, why dost thou not take it? |
A41142 | Thou labour? |
A41142 | Thou pleadest for hopes ▪ and liest in thy sinnes, why wilt thou? |
A41142 | Thus thou pleadest with God for thy vaine hopes; but why wilt thou? |
A41142 | To labour so as thou labourest? |
A41142 | To what end should God give thee power? |
A41142 | We complaine of our deadnesse, and what trow wee is the cause, but our wil nots? |
A41142 | Wee our owne selves count this anger very reasonable in the like case; what will hee not do it? |
A41142 | Well beg then and yee will; can not you endure a little cold? |
A41142 | What can not a man do for selfe- love and for feare? |
A41142 | What dost thou talking of thy want of power? |
A41142 | What is a sinne of infirmity but a sinne the will protesteth against? |
A41142 | What is the cause yee live in your sinnes, and die and perish in your sinnes? |
A41142 | What labour is it to say, company- keepers shall not sit drinking in my house? |
A41142 | What makes some of us goe downe the winde? |
A41142 | What meanes hath hee lent thee? |
A41142 | What not speake a word but onely with warrant from Scripture? |
A41142 | What now hast thou gotten by thy plea? |
A41142 | What sayes the Text in the verse going before? |
A41142 | What thus precise? |
A41142 | What was it because they could not? |
A41142 | What''s the reason, they presume to repent another time, but because they thinke they have power? |
A41142 | What? |
A41142 | When Abrahams servant objected, and how if the woman will not? |
A41142 | When a servant can runne a race for his sport, why will he not on his Masters errand when hee bids him? |
A41142 | When yee pray forgive us our Trespasses, do not ye acknowledge with all that ye have been wanting to the grace of God? |
A41142 | Who can tell best what is in thee God or thine owne heart? |
A41142 | Why didst thou not imploy it to the utmost? |
A41142 | Why does he charge mee to root out a lust that I can not root out? |
A41142 | Why dost not thou? |
A41142 | Why dost thou not abstaine from going to Feasts awhile? |
A41142 | Why dost thou not bawke such acquaintance as may occasion thy Tongue to cast out? |
A41142 | Why dost thou not curbe thy proude stubborne lusts for feare of this Hell? |
A41142 | Why dost thou not go so far as thou mayest? |
A41142 | Why dost thou not intreat Gods people severely to reprove thee, and exact a fine of thee for every misgoverning word? |
A41142 | Why dost thou not stint thy Trencher with so much? |
A41142 | Why dost thou not take heede for feare, least God should send thee to Hell? |
A41142 | Why should you be stricken any more? |
A41142 | Why then canst thou not goe and resigne it to God? |
A41142 | Why then wilt you count it folly to do so? |
A41142 | Why will ye dye O house of Jsrael? |
A41142 | Why will yee die O house of Israel? |
A41142 | Why wilt thou not give over one of thy two livings then? |
A41142 | Why? |
A41142 | Why? |
A41142 | Why? |
A41142 | Why? |
A41142 | Will not this bee an aggravation against them at the dreadfull day of judgement? |
A41142 | Would not this anger any body? |
A41142 | Wouldst thou be holy, and heavenly? |
A41142 | Yea, but I can not finde in my heart to put up this, nor to be abridged of this, and shall Christ and thou part for one single farthing? |
A41142 | You can observe his statutes, why can not you set about mine? |
A41142 | You have hardned your necks, and what''s that but a will not? |
A41142 | and come into his way, or yee shall never escape the evill to come; can there be any reasonabler way then this? |
A41142 | and give place to the Devill still? |
A41142 | and in thy life sweare still? |
A41142 | and not that he should returne and live? |
A41142 | and sin against mercy? |
A41142 | and thou knowest it; God is truer in his Law then any mortall man, and thou knowest it: and fearest thou not me? |
A41142 | and when thou hadst promised, did any squeeze the lie out of thy tongue that thou shouldest tell a lie to the Holy Ghost? |
A41142 | and yee must have the sinnes of Jeroboam; that were enough stubbornesse one would thinke; but yee must suffer the grove also? |
A41142 | are no Sizers able to cut it? |
A41142 | as Christ said to the Officer that smote him, if I have spoken well, why smitest thou mee? |
A41142 | as God sayd of that fasting; so may I say of thy labour, Is this the fast that J have chosen? |
A41142 | as Israel, though in a mistake, said to their brethren, is the iniquity of Peor too little for us, from the which we are not cleansed to this day? |
A41142 | as he ask''d the blind man, what wilt thou that I doe unto thee? |
A41142 | as though he could yet up againe as well as he; the drunkard, was not Noah drunk? |
A41142 | because he can not? |
A41142 | because hee hath not any meate? |
A41142 | because the ground would not beare it? |
A41142 | bee more frequent in good duties for hope of Heaven, and for feare of Hell? |
A41142 | but that yee must turne away this day too? |
A41142 | but wilt thou not be made clean? |
A41142 | but yee must willingly stand out against Christ too? |
A41142 | can not you say get you hence ye drunken companions, here''s no entertainment for you? |
A41142 | can not, can not thy stubborne will stoope to a little difficulty? |
A41142 | canst thou say thou art not able to feare him so much as servilely? |
A41142 | could not they have put on sackcloath on their loines, and powered ashes on their heads if they would? |
A41142 | couldst thou not have held in thy fingers? |
A41142 | couldst thou not take them into thy house as well as carnall acquaintance? |
A41142 | cursed passions still? |
A41142 | did any drag thy fingers to the money and force thee to handle it? |
A41142 | does Paul cry out, Oh wretched man that I am? |
A41142 | does not thy own conscience tell thee t is because thou wilt not? |
A41142 | every Sermon gives thee new power, a new price? |
A41142 | every blessing thou hast had, gives thee a new power, wherein are thou purer? |
A41142 | every one of us, God will exempt none, wee must all be brought to an accompt for these things; will not thy heart bow to it? |
A41142 | feare yee not mee? |
A41142 | hast thou not as much reason as a brute creature? |
A41142 | have not you a Tongue in your heads ye that keepe disorders in your Alehouses? |
A41142 | he does not say woe unto thee Jerusalem, canst thou not be made clean? |
A41142 | he had power not to do it, why then does he crucify him? |
A41142 | he knowes that I can not, why does he wooe me to do that which I can not? |
A41142 | he was a Saint of God, and heire of heaven, and sure of blisse; does he cry out of himselfe, that he was wretched? |
A41142 | hee sets up a Temple, you can go constantly to it, why can not you go constantly to mine? |
A41142 | if he were accursed that did lay up his pound, what shall become of thee that dost lessen it? |
A41142 | in what a wofull case then art thou to provoke him as thou dost? |
A41142 | is it because I am not mercifull? |
A41142 | is it not easier to give over drunkennesse, when thy excesse is bitter to thy stomacke, then when it it was pleasant? |
A41142 | is there a Thorne hedge in the way? |
A41142 | is this all that God hath offred to inable thee? |
A41142 | keepe such disorders under thy roofe? |
A41142 | let us thanke our wil nots for this; have we little peace? |
A41142 | meanes and maintenance: how hast thou honoured God? |
A41142 | might not they have shewed so much repentance at the least? |
A41142 | mock at my children still? |
A41142 | never comply nor sort with such and such old acquaintance, because they drop out an Oath now and then before they are aware? |
A41142 | never right my selfe by a little revenge? |
A41142 | no, hee hath a hand in his bosome; because his hand hath the dead Palsy, and hee not able to stirre it? |
A41142 | no, how does he know? |
A41142 | not give over thy base carnall consorts? |
A41142 | onely because thou wilt not; hast thou impediments? |
A41142 | or are not your wayes rathere unquall? |
A41142 | or promise me blessings if I doe, when he knowes that I can not? |
A41142 | or to be negligent of his Masters commands? |
A41142 | or what cause is it? |
A41142 | q. d. why d ● es God give mee such Commandements, that I can not observe? |
A41142 | quasi canis peccatum sus dependeret? |
A41142 | reforme nothing, no, not the grove under your face? |
A41142 | saith the Lord, will yee not tremble at my presence? |
A41142 | sayes Christ, are yee able to drinke of the Cup that I am to drinke off, and bee Baptized with the Baptisme that I am Baptized with? |
A41142 | sayes Gualter, with what face canst thou say thus? |
A41142 | see how God girdeth their willfull security that they would do no more good then they did; not so much as cut down that grove? |
A41142 | shall I be touchy to be damned, and proud to be damned? |
A41142 | so every good counsell gives thee a new power; what art thou better? |
A41142 | so many meanes and no more fruit? |
A41142 | so many warnings and threatnings,& c. and yet the grove also? |
A41142 | the Lord in mercy lets thy will have a despoticall power over thy members, as the Moralists call it, and why canst thou not bridle, them? |
A41142 | the grove also; what not so much as the grove cut downe? |
A41142 | the time was when thou wert a little well affected, why didst thou let it decay? |
A41142 | then use the meanes; Talk of Heaven in thy meetings, reason about grace, inquire of good soules And how may I come by an humble heart? |
A41142 | thou darest not transgresse the Kings Lawes for fear of the Gallowse; and can not the feare of Hell restraine thee from transgressing of Gods? |
A41142 | thou hast the temptation by thee, why dost thou not resist it? |
A41142 | thou rapst out an Oath before thou art aware, why then dost thou not as Chrysostome would have thee, Set forfeitures for every Oath? |
A41142 | time was when thou wert soberer, and lesse given to wrath and passions; and why didst thou let these good conditions decay? |
A41142 | to afflict a mans selfe for a day? |
A41142 | to be moved when thou art exhorted, then when thou art not admonished at all? |
A41142 | to forsake a sinfull course when once God hath imbittered it to thy flesh by corrections, then when it was sweet? |
A41142 | was it not once in thy power? |
A41142 | we complaine of our corruptions and of the leanenesse of our soules, and whom may we thanke, but our wil nots? |
A41142 | we might grow more then we doe, what lets us, but our wil nots? |
A41142 | were they able to say thus? |
A41142 | what aileth thee that thou canst not tame downe thy pride for feare of Gods judgements, and bridle thy base passions for feare of Hell? |
A41142 | what because he can not chuse? |
A41142 | what did his wife tie his legges? |
A41142 | what followes? |
A41142 | what shall I do unto thee? |
A41142 | what''s the reason he hath not a good crop? |
A41142 | what''s the reason, they hope to repent on their death beds, but because they thinke they have power? |
A41142 | when shall it once be? |
A41142 | who of us is able to dwell with everlasting flames? |
A41142 | why canst thou not then do it for fear of the great God? |
A41142 | why does he helpe me to more and more knowledge? |
A41142 | why does he yet complaine? |
A41142 | why does hee starve? |
A41142 | why then dost thou not forecast for to reine them? |
A41142 | will any man be so vaine as to say Achan could not chuse but take the Babylonish Garment? |
A41142 | wouldst thou beleive in me? |
A41142 | yee can not come unto Sermons? |
A41142 | yet thy filthy Tongue thy covetousnesse also,& c. not only keep thy other lusts, but thy profanesse also? |
A41142 | you know I am gracious and full of mercy and ready to forgive, why then why will ye die O house of Israel? |
A41142 | you know I am slow to anger, and give you a warning before I consume you; why then will ye die O house of Jsrael? |
A41142 | you shall not; would you stand lingring to be consumed with fire and brimstone? |
A41142 | your owne legges they shall judge you; can you say you can not give over your oathing and lying? |
A10650 | 18. to be strong in him when we are weake in our selves? |
A10650 | 4.25, 26 a Quomodo potest esse cum Christo qui cum sponsa Christi, atque in ejus Ecclesia non est? |
A10650 | 5.17, 18. Who goeth a warfare at any time of his owne charges? |
A10650 | Againe, how easily would Temptations over- turne the faith of men, if it were not daily supported by the Word? |
A10650 | Am I a serious and earnest enemie to my originall lusts, and closest corruptions? |
A10650 | Am I cleansed from my filthinesse, carefull to keepe my selfe chaste, comely, beautifull, a fit spouse for the fairest of ten thousand? |
A10650 | Am I not God, and not man? |
A10650 | Am I not neerer to my soule, than I am to my carkasse, or to my seed? |
A10650 | And alas, how many men preach the Gospell, and yet can scarce finde the first and meanest of all these supplies? |
A10650 | And am I not neerer to my selfe, than I am to my money? |
A10650 | And how many are there every- where to be found whose love unto themselves hath devoured all brotherly love? |
A10650 | And how should men labour to be secured in that right? |
A10650 | And now alas, what were we that God should bring us hitherto? |
A10650 | And shall the potsheard strive with the potter, and provoke him that made it? |
A10650 | And so also in afflictions; Hath the Lord forgotten to bee gratious and shut up his loving kindnesse in displeasure? |
A10650 | And therefore the Apostle useth this expostulation against Idolaters, Doe we provoke the Lord to jelousie? |
A10650 | And what can the reasonings of the flesh contribute to that which was all wisedome before? |
A10650 | And what is it To live? |
A10650 | And where is the fury of the oppressor? |
A10650 | And why should not I apply my power, to serve him, who did reach forth his owne power to convert me? |
A10650 | And, what hath my beloved to doe in mine house, seeing she hath wrought lewdnesse with many? |
A10650 | Are we stronger than he? |
A10650 | Are yee able to drinke of the cup that I shall drinke of, or be baptized with that Baptisme that I am baptized with? |
A10650 | Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh, is there any thing too hard for mee? |
A10650 | But are not the faithfull subject to evils, corruptions, and temptations still? |
A10650 | But can thine heart endure, or thine hands bee strong, saith the Lord, in the day that I shall deale with thee? |
A10650 | But doth hee not call mee, invite me, beseech mee, command me to come unto him? |
A10650 | But doth not the Apostle say, that all things are put under his feete? |
A10650 | But even in their personall succession who knoweth not what Simonies and Sorceries have raised divers of them unto that degree? |
A10650 | But how doe we in the Gospell see the Image of God who is invisible? |
A10650 | But if the paw of a Beare meet with so thinne a substance as the kall of a mans heart, how easily is it torne to pieces? |
A10650 | But it may bee objected, if wee can doe nothing without a second grace, to what end is a former grace given? |
A10650 | But shall God give his Sonne the uttermost parts of the earth for his possession, and shall men withhold it? |
A10650 | But shall not the Angels then be executioners of the sentence of Gods wrath upon wicked men? |
A10650 | But suppose that povertie be truly alleaged: Doe wee thinke poverty a just pretext for the neglect of a morall duty? |
A10650 | But what good can love doe without power? |
A10650 | But what then, doth Christ compell men against their wills to become subiect unto him? |
A10650 | But what will remaine of a mans silver and gold to carry him through the wrath to come, but onely the rust thereof to joyne in judgment against him? |
A10650 | But what, is not God a God afarre off as well as neere at hand? |
A10650 | But who am I that I should promise any service unto thee? |
A10650 | But why is it said that the Father shal put Christs enemies under his feet? |
A10650 | Can thine heart endure or thine hands bee strong in the dayes that I shall deale with thee? |
A10650 | Dare we meete the Lord in his fury, doe we provoke him to powre out All his wrath? |
A10650 | Doe I finde in my soule the new name of the Lord Iesus written, that I am not onely in title, but in truth a Christian? |
A10650 | Doe I finde the secret nature and figure of Christ fashioned in mee, swaying mine heart to the love and obedience of his holy wayes? |
A10650 | Doe not wee our selves without cruelty upon many occasions put creatures that have not offended us unto paine? |
A10650 | Doe yee not know that they which minister about holy things, live of the things of the Temple? |
A10650 | Doth God take care for Oxen? |
A10650 | Doth it become the sonne of a King to goe in ragges, or to converse with meane and ignoble persons? |
A10650 | Ephraim shall say, what have I to doe any more with idols? |
A10650 | Fifthly, what kinde of blessing it was wherewith Melchisedek blessed Abraham? |
A10650 | Fifthly, what kinde of blessing it was with which hee blessed Abraham? |
A10650 | First, what is meant by the Rod of Christs Strength, or his Strong Rod? |
A10650 | First, whether God hath repented him of the Law, which was the rule and measure of the Covenant of workes? |
A10650 | First, who Melchisedek was? |
A10650 | For how can that man truly hope to bee like Christ hereafter, that labors to bee as unlike him here as hee can? |
A10650 | For the second question, why God swears in this particular? |
A10650 | For understanding wherof we must note that he had a fourfold Vnion unto God? |
A10650 | Fourthly, Why Melchisedek brought forth bread and wine? |
A10650 | Fourthly, the torments of wicked angels whence can they come? |
A10650 | Fourthly, why hee brought forth bread and wine? |
A10650 | Hast thou not knowne, hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth fainteth not, neither is weary? |
A10650 | Hath his Gospell an effectual seminall vertue within me to new forme my nature and life daily unto his heavenly Image? |
A10650 | Hath the Raine a Father, or who hath begotten the Drops of Dew? |
A10650 | Have I beene a wildernesse unto Israel, or a land of darknesse, wherefore say my people we are lords, we will come no more unto thee? |
A10650 | He is neere at hand, his comming draweth nigh: He is neere that justifieth mee, who will contend with m ● e? |
A10650 | He that loveth not his brother whom hee hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seene? |
A10650 | He was taken, saith the Prophet, from Prison and judgment, to note that the whole debt was payed, and now who shall declare his generation? |
A10650 | Here is love in pretence, but falshood in the heart: what then was it which in the Prophet they did thus love? |
A10650 | Here then it is needfull to enquire in what manner we are to adorne and set forth the glory of the Gospell? |
A10650 | Here then may bee answered two great Questions: First, whether the Church may deficere, faile upon the earth or no? |
A10650 | How doe you say we are wise; saith the Prophet, and the Law of the Lord is with us? |
A10650 | How doth the Lord grant this Prayer? |
A10650 | How earnestly should wee contend for this truth, the custodie whereof he hath honoured us withall? |
A10650 | How faire and how pleasant art thou, O love, for delights? |
A10650 | How much more glorious was the light of the Gospell? |
A10650 | How poore our progresse? |
A10650 | How shall I deliver thee Israel? |
A10650 | How shall I make thee as Admah? |
A10650 | How shall I set thee as Zeboim? |
A10650 | How shall these things be reconcil''d? |
A10650 | How should we praise him for it, and as wee have received Christ purely, so labour to walk worthily in him? |
A10650 | How should we runne to him that called us when we knew him not? |
A10650 | How should we set forward, and call upon one another, that we may flie like doves in companies unto the windowes of the Church? |
A10650 | How then comes it that this covenant is immutable, and Christs Priesthood of everlasting and unchangeable vigor to all ages and generations of men? |
A10650 | How wonderfull is the stupidity of men, that will neither beleeve the words, nor tremble at the oath of God? |
A10650 | I raised up of your sonnes for Prophets, and of your young men for Nazarites: Is it not even thus, O yee children of Israel? |
A10650 | I said, how shall I put thee amongst the children, and give thee a pleasant Land? |
A10650 | I will melt them and trie them, saith the Lord, for how shall I doe for the daughter of my people? |
A10650 | If God be for us, who can be against us? |
A10650 | If I be a Master, saith the Lord, where is my feare? |
A10650 | If a man had a deadly pestilence and of infallible infection, how easily might that man be avenged on his enemy with but breathing in his face? |
A10650 | If it bee marvailous in the eyes of the remnant of this people, should it bee marvailous in mine eyes, saith the Lord of hosts? |
A10650 | If it objected, why then did not Christ in his life receive tithes? |
A10650 | If the ministration of death( saith the Apostle) were glorious, how shall not the ministration of the Spirit be rather glorious? |
A10650 | If wee have sowen unto you spirituall things, is it a great thing if wee shall reape your carnall things? |
A10650 | In that great tempest when Christ was asleepe in the ship, his Disciples awaked him and expostulated with him, Master, carest thou not that we perish? |
A10650 | In this case what shall I doe? |
A10650 | Is Christ divided? |
A10650 | Is Christ my center? |
A10650 | Is it not one and the same power which hardneth the one and which softneth the other? |
A10650 | Is not the word a sweete Savor unto God as well in those that perish as in those that are saved? |
A10650 | Is not this the end why the Gospell is preached, that we should live unto God? |
A10650 | Is the seed yet in the barne? |
A10650 | It is God that justifieth, who is he that condemneth? |
A10650 | It is God that justifieth, who is hee that condemneth? |
A10650 | It is further demanded when sinne is full? |
A10650 | It was once the expostulation of Nehemiah with his enemies, should such a man as I flie from such men as you? |
A10650 | It wrought so with that wicked king of Israel, Behold this evill is of the Lord, what should I waite upon the Lord any longer? |
A10650 | Lastly, in what sense hee was without Father, and without Mother, without beginning of dayes, or end of life? |
A10650 | Must I not have a being in that, when neither I nor my posterity have either backe to be clothed, or belly to bee fed, or name to be supported? |
A10650 | My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken mee? |
A10650 | My soule thirsteth for God, yea for the living God, when shall I come and appeare before God? |
A10650 | Nay, but who art thou, O man, who disputest against God? |
A10650 | Now by the Gospell we have that great honour and priviledge given us to be called the sons of God; and shall we then walke as servants of Satan? |
A10650 | Now suppose a man in a burning fornace; what great comfort could he receive from but a drop of water against a fornace of fire? |
A10650 | Now then if God himselfe did studie to save me, how great reason is there that I should studie to serve him? |
A10650 | Now what are all the good tidings to the Gospell? |
A10650 | Nunquid Cain cum Deo munus offerret jam peremerat fratrem? |
A10650 | O how forward ought we to be to serve him, who is so ready to meet us in his way, and to blesse us? |
A10650 | O my people, what have I done unto thee, and wherein have I wearied thee? |
A10650 | O then what is become of the Christianity of many men, who forget that they have beene purged? |
A10650 | O then why should that be light to mee, which was as heavie as a milstone to the soule of Christ? |
A10650 | O what a perversenesse is this for the wickednesse of man to perturbe the Order of God? |
A10650 | O what a price was that which procured it? |
A10650 | O what manner of persons ought we to bee for whom it was procured? |
A10650 | O what would a man give then for that holinesse which hee now despiseth? |
A10650 | O where shall the ungodly and sinners appeare if they have not right in Christ? |
A10650 | O why am I not as sadly imployed, why spend I not some at least as serious and inquisitive thoughts about this, as about the other? |
A10650 | O why should not an holy strictnesse be as much honoured as a superstitious? |
A10650 | Or where could he have found out an Altar whereon to offer, and whereby to sanctifie so great a sacrifice? |
A10650 | Out of whose wombe came the Ice? |
A10650 | Peter lovest thou me? |
A10650 | Quantus in Christiano populo honor Christi, ubi religio ignobilem facit? |
A10650 | Quid est Dei veri veracisque Iuratio, nisi promissi confirma ● tio, ut infidelium quaedam Increpatio? |
A10650 | Quid judicaturus faciet qui judicandus hoc fecit? |
A10650 | Quid ● ● fert dictis ignoscat Mutius, annon? |
A10650 | Say I these things as a man( that is, am I partiall? |
A10650 | Secondly, upon what reasons or grounds the immutabilitie of the second Covenant or Law of grace standeth? |
A10650 | Secondly, what is meant by Gods sending this Rod of Christs strength? |
A10650 | Secondly, what is meant by 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, his Order? |
A10650 | Secondly, why hee swears in this particular case of Christs Priesthood? |
A10650 | Shall I take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? |
A10650 | Shall the clay boast it selfe against the fire, because, though it have power to melt wax, yet it hath not power to melt clay? |
A10650 | Sixthly, in what manner he received Tithes? |
A10650 | Sixthly, in what manner he received Tithes? |
A10650 | Sonne of man, wilt thou judge, wilt thou judge the bloudy Citie, saith the Lord? |
A10650 | That reason which the Pharisees used to disswade men from beleeving in Christ, Have any of the rulers or the Pharisees beleeved on him? |
A10650 | The Lord hath sworne] Here two things are to bee enquired: First, how God is said to sweare? |
A10650 | The like may be said of mens spirituall condition; when men despaire, as Cain, that their sinne is greater than can be forgiven? |
A10650 | The very best that are finde shame enough in sinne, how much they who give themselves over unto vile and dishonourable affections? |
A10650 | Then( saith the Church) shee that is mine enemies shall see it,& shame shall cover her which said unto mee, Where is the Lord thy God? |
A10650 | Thirdly, Why was hee not a Priest after the order of Aaron? |
A10650 | Thirdly, what is meant by sending it out of Sion? |
A10650 | Thirdly, why Christ was to bee a Priest after his Order, and not after Aarons? |
A10650 | Thou servest thine owne vainglorie and affectations; but what good will it bee to bee admired by thy fellow prisoners, and condemned by thy Judge? |
A10650 | Too true it is that I doe not all I should: but doe I allow my selfe in any thing that I should not? |
A10650 | True it is, thou hast beene unto me as the Rulers of Sodome, and as the people of Gomorrah: But shall I be unto thee, as I have beene unto them? |
A10650 | What ailed a man that hee was driven back from his owne channell, and made suddenly to forget his wonted course? |
A10650 | What ailed thee O thou Sea, that thou fleddest, and thou Iordan that thou wert driven back? |
A10650 | What ailes this man? |
A10650 | What glory doe we here behold, but that which a glasse is able to represent? |
A10650 | What hast thou to doe to take my Covenant in thy mouth, seeing thou hatest instruction? |
A10650 | What hath my beloved to doe in mine house, seeing shee hath wrought lewdnesse with many? |
A10650 | What in appearance weaker than words spoken by a despised man? |
A10650 | What is a Bee to a Beare, or a Mouse to an Elephant? |
A10650 | What thing is heavier than a mountaine, what thing easier than a touch, what lighter than chaffe, or softer than wax? |
A10650 | What will yee doe in the desolation which shall come from farre? |
A10650 | When I see a vapour ascend out of the earth into the aire, why should I not thinke that it will never leave rising till it get up to heaven? |
A10650 | When Iudas asked Christ, n Master is it I that shall betray thee? |
A10650 | When the Prophet asked the Shunamite, would''st thou be spoken for to the king, or to the Captaine of the host? |
A10650 | Whence came it all? |
A10650 | Where is it that wee behold the glorie of God but s in a glasse? |
A10650 | Where is the promise of his comming? |
A10650 | Wherefore lyest thou upon thy face, there is an accursed thing in the campe? |
A10650 | Who am I, O Lord God, and what is my house, that thou hast brought me hitherto? |
A10650 | Who amongst us shall dwell with the devouring fire, who amongst us shall dwell with everlasting burnings? |
A10650 | Who art thou, O great mountaine? |
A10650 | Who hath required this at your hands to tread in my Courts? |
A10650 | Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his people? |
A10650 | Who is he that condemneth? |
A10650 | Who is he that condemneth? |
A10650 | Who is mine adversary? |
A10650 | Who is weake, saith he, and I am not weake? |
A10650 | Who planteth a vineyard and eateth not of the fruit thereof? |
A10650 | Who shall lay any thing to the charge of Gods elect? |
A10650 | Who then is the man that desireth tranquillitie of life, and securitie against all evill? |
A10650 | Why should I allow that to be really in me, which the Lord so severely punished, when the guilt thereof was but imputed to his Sonne? |
A10650 | Why should it be treason to kill a Judge in his ministerie on the bench? |
A10650 | Why should not every man strive to be filled with grace, since he can never have enough till hee have it all, till he is brimme- full? |
A10650 | Why should that be in a throne with me, which was upon a crosse with him? |
A10650 | Why should that bee my pleasure, which was his passion? |
A10650 | Wilt thou be content to goe to hell and serve me there a thousand yeeres in the midst of hellish torments, and the reviling of damned creatures? |
A10650 | Wilt thou revenge every oath with an yeare of prayers, every bribe or corruption with a treasury of almes, every vanity with an age of precisenesse? |
A10650 | Would any Prince endure to see the heire of his crowne live in bondage to his own vassall and most hated enemie? |
A10650 | You will say Christ is in heaven, how can any injuries of ours reach unto him? |
A10650 | a Quid est quod di ● itur Testamentum vetus, nisi occultatio novi? |
A10650 | and how shall I doe for the daughters of my people? |
A10650 | and shall it then bee within the compasse of humane power to effect, as it is in their pride to maintaine, fieri posse ut nulla sit Ecclesia? |
A10650 | and shall they detaine themselves from him? |
A10650 | and the hoary frost of heaven who hath gendred it? |
A10650 | and what in the experience of all the world stronger than the raging of an army of lusts? |
A10650 | and what is that glasse? |
A10650 | and when was Juda destroyed, but when they hardened themselves against the Word, and would not take notice of the day of their peace? |
A10650 | and which can throughly furnish a man unto every good worke? |
A10650 | and who is thy Minister that hee should doe any good unto me without thy grace and heavenly call? |
A10650 | but because in such relations they are persons publike and representative, ut eorum bona malaque ad Rempublicam pertineant? |
A10650 | but the word of God as S. Iames cals it? |
A10650 | can not hee blast the corne in the blade, in the harvest, in the barne, in the very mouth of the wicked? |
A10650 | doe I make use of mine infirmities to justifie my selfe by them, or shelter my selfe under them, or dispence with my selfe in them? |
A10650 | doe I speake meerly out of affection, and humane favor to mine owne cause, or calling?) |
A10650 | doth not Christ himselfe do it as well as the Father? |
A10650 | doth not hee say of wicked men, that in the fulnesse of their sufficiency they shall bee in straites? |
A10650 | for him, who bare our sinnes, and our stripes, and our burdens for us, which were heavier than all the world could lay on? |
A10650 | hath he divers opinions, or hath he the truth of God in respect of persons? |
A10650 | how can I dwell with everlasting burnings? |
A10650 | how then is that part of the intercession of Christ made good unto us? |
A10650 | in the midst of Satans buffets and our owne corruptions to finde a sufficiencie in his Grace, able to answer and to ward off all? |
A10650 | l Incredulity, and belying the Lord in his Word, saying it is not he: Who hath beleeved our report, and to whom is the arme of the Lord revealed? |
A10650 | may a man spend the Lords day on his shop- board because he is poore and wants means? |
A10650 | o I knew that thou wert an austere man; and this is an p hard saying, who can beare it? |
A10650 | or esteemed an injurie to the state to doe any indignitie to the Ambassadour of a great prince? |
A10650 | or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? |
A10650 | or saith hee it altogether for our sakes? |
A10650 | or what beauty wilt thou finde on the left hand of Christ, where the characters of every mans hellish conscience shall bee written in his face? |
A10650 | or what use is there of our exciting that grace and gift of God in us which can doe nothing without a further concourse of Christs Spirit? |
A10650 | or, saith not the Law the same also? |
A10650 | quid regnaturus poterit, qui moriturus hoc potuit? |
A10650 | shall I change my Covenant, because thou hast multiplied thy backslidings? |
A10650 | so frequently in Scripture the Saints expostulate with God in an humble and mourning debate, Why sleepest thou, O Lord? |
A10650 | that is, in the words of another Prophet, Who can stand before his indignation? |
A10650 | that men should have more boldnesse to destroy themselves, and to doe Satans works, than we to save them, or to serve God? |
A10650 | to be stedfast in him when we stagger in our selves? |
A10650 | to bee faithfull in him when wee are fearefull in our selves? |
A10650 | what covenants would such a man be content to subscribe unto, if God would then shew him mercy when the court of mercy is shut up? |
A10650 | what is it that he gives unto his Sonne but the soules, the hearts, the very thoughts of men to bee made obedient unto his Scepter? |
A10650 | what will become of the King whom you served before? |
A10650 | when you are spoiled what will yee doe? |
A10650 | where will you leave your glory? |
A10650 | who is offended, and I burne not? |
A10650 | who live as if they had never beene baptized into Christ, who lived as if they had never learned Christ? |
A10650 | who rather choosest to abuse the secrets of God, that thou maiest dishonour him, than to bee ruled by his revealed will, that thou maist obey him? |
A10650 | who take no pitty either upon the soules, or temporall necessities of those with whom they yet pretend a fellowship in Christs owne body? |
A10650 | why should not exactnesse, purity, and a contending unto perfection, be as much pursued in a true as in a false religion? |
A10650 | wouldst thou returne to the earth, and live there a thousand yeares under contempt and persecution for my service? |
A10650 | y It is in vaine to serve God, what profit have we that we have kept his ordinances,& c? |
A10650 | yee mountaines that yee skipped like Rams, and yee little hils like Lambes? |
A61409 | A dying to the World of Necessity and not of Choice? |
A61409 | And can it be thought that a Being that wanted no Cause for its Existence, should need a Cause to give it Properties far below that of Eternity? |
A61409 | And deprive your selves of the Honour and Privilege of serving him? |
A61409 | And have the many Favours you have received of God so tun''d your Hearts to his Praise, that you can in every thing give thanks? |
A61409 | And if, as they have wallow''d long in Vice, so they should be made to swim long in Tears, and to water their Couches with continual weeping? |
A61409 | And is it not fit that he that has made us for himself, should have the Best of our Service? |
A61409 | And is your inward Man renew''d day by day, as your outward Man perishes? |
A61409 | And justly apprehend that the expence of my Time in Wickedness will be punished with an eternity of Misery? |
A61409 | And may such reasonably expect he will go out of his ordinary Methods to meet them, that have all their Life past gone astray from him? |
A61409 | And shame your late Back- slidings, by putting you in mind of your early Zeal? |
A61409 | And that after I have so long walk''d in the ways of Sin, I must now at last lie down in the Grave in Sorrow? |
A61409 | And that the powers of our Souls should, in their most flourishing and vigorous state, be offer''d to the great Author of all our Faculties? |
A61409 | And the Son of Man that he should visit him? |
A61409 | And this Consideration renews and redoubles the force of the former Reasons: For what is Man( fallen Man) that God should be mindful of him? |
A61409 | And what a daring presumption is it, to continue in Sin, that Grace may abound? |
A61409 | And when he hideth his Face, who then can behold him? |
A61409 | And whether I am willing to be purified as well as redeem''d, to be sanctified by his Grace, as well as justified by his Righteousness? |
A61409 | And whom shall he make to understand Doctrine? |
A61409 | And with having fallen short of your first Works? |
A61409 | And without shewing him that, if he be sav''d, it shall be so as by Fire? |
A61409 | And — when he giveth Quietness, who then can make Trouble? |
A61409 | And, Who can deliver out of his hand? |

A61409 | Are you Fathers in Knowledg and Piety as well as in Years? |
A61409 | Are you become very humble by a long acquaintance with your own Hearts, and with that God who is the searcher of them? |
A61409 | But did you consecrate to your Creator the Flower of your Youth? |
A61409 | But do you fill up these Characters that so well agree with your long standing in the Church of God? |
A61409 | But is it likely that he should indulge those with the highest and most uncommon Privileges, that hold out longest in Rebellion against him? |
A61409 | But tell me, Are the Promises of the World like the Promises of God? |

A61409 | Can you be secure on the very brink of Destruction? |
A61409 | Can you think it deserves the very best of your Time, and that your Creator is unworthy of such an Offering? |
A61409 | Do I really loath my former disorders, and is Temperance my choice? |
A61409 | Does the Holy Scripture, or Reason allow Youth any such Dispensation for Sin? |
A61409 | Does your spiritual vigour advance, as your natural Strength declines? |
A61409 | Have I not Reason to doubt whether I am sincerely willing to choose my blessed Lord, as my Head and Ruler, as well as my Sanctuary and Saviour? |
A61409 | Have you made such a Proficiency as this in Religion? |
A61409 | Have your various Afflictions taught you to possess your Souls in Patience? |
A61409 | How could past Eternity be so deficient, as to leave any thing to future Invention to discover or cultivate? |
A61409 | How provoking must this needs be to that God who is so jealous of his Glory, that he will not give it to any other? |
A61409 | How will you bear such a dismal Sentence as this? |
A61409 | I seem somewhat mortified to the things of the World: But is not this rather a kind of Natural than a Moral Death? |
A61409 | Is any Man so mad as to poison himself with the most subtile Venom, because he thinks there is some possibility of his obtaining an Antidote? |
A61409 | Is any kind of Folly so great in its Degree, or so dangerous in its Consequences as this? |
A61409 | Is any scope in Vice allowable to the Time of Youth any more than to the Time of Old Age? |
A61409 | Is it fit to reserve only the Blind and Lame and Sick for sacred Services? |
A61409 | Is it not better to repent early than to be reduc''d to mourn despairingly, when''t is too late? |
A61409 | Is it not much more easy to bend a Young Twig than an Aged Oak, and to prevent evil Habits than to rectify''em? |
A61409 | Is it not much more reasonable to conclude, that We are but of Yesterday, because we know nothing? |
A61409 | Is it not rather the weakness of my Appetite, and the decay of my Palate, that makes me abstemious? |
A61409 | Is it not rather to serve a turn of my own, than to serve him, that I offer my self so late to his Service? |
A61409 | Is it not wholly from a fear of Evil of Punishment, and not at all from the Sense of the Evil of Sin? |
A61409 | Is it to be thought that Conversion to God is so slight and easy a matter, that any Time may serve for its Accomplishment? |
A61409 | Is it worth the while to purchase a few hours delight in gratifying your sordid and brutish Appetites, with the loss of your precious Souls? |
A61409 | Is not Sin always evil, and always to be avoided? |
A61409 | Is not this to build an imaginary Happiness on a thousand Uncertainties? |

A61409 | Is your Faith become strong by a long exercise? |
A61409 | Let me ask you, What hinders you from presenting so reasonable a Service to him? |
A61409 | May he not charge you as he did the Ephesians, with having left your first Love? |
A61409 | May it not rather be thought, That tho God should forgive their Iniquities, he''ll take Vengeance of their Inventions? |
A61409 | May not your Creator send you back to learn of those that are much younger, and who have had less Advantages of Improvement than you? |
A61409 | Nay may he not send you back to be instructed by your selves, I mean, by the former part of your Lives? |
A61409 | Not because I have violated the Law of God, but only because I have render''d my self obnoxious to the Curse of it? |
A61409 | Or have you only offer''d him your later Years? |
A61409 | Or is it otherwise? |
A61409 | Or of whose hand have I received, any Bribe, to blind my Eyes therewith? |
A61409 | Or whom have I defrauded? |
A61409 | Or whose Ass have I taken? |
A61409 | Ought you not to apply your selves as well to his Example for Direction, as to his Sufferings for Salvation? |
A61409 | Shall these Eyes that have so often been full of Adultery be admitted to see the Lord in Glory? |
A61409 | So deceitful is the Heart of Man, and so desperately wicked, who can know it? |
A61409 | That the strength of our Bodies should be dedicated to him that moulded and compos''d''em? |
A61409 | The Heart is deceitful above all things; And how shall I be assur''d that I do not deceive my self about the safety of my Soul? |
A61409 | What Illusions of Sense are those that charm you? |
A61409 | What fitter Term could be chosen, by which to urge the duty of Young Persons to their Maker, than that of[ Remembring] him? |
A61409 | What if those that look out at the Windows be darkned? |
A61409 | What shall I say? |
A61409 | What tho''( as Solomon phrases it) the Keepers of the House tremble, and the strong Men bow themselves; and fears be in the way? |
A61409 | What will you do in those Days of Evil, when the Iniquity of your Heels shall compass you about? |
A61409 | When the Heaven shall reveal your Iniquity, and the Earth shall rise up against you? |
A61409 | When the Terrours of God shall strike your Consciences, and all your past Life shall accuse and condemn you? |
A61409 | When your Bones will be full of the Sin of your Youth, which shall lie down with you in the Dust? |
A61409 | When your Flesh upon you shall have pain, and your Souls within you shall mourn? |
A61409 | Who but our Creator is able to restore us, and reform us from Sin; seeing Sin is a Privation of Sanctity, a Nullity oppos''d to the Being of Holiness? |
A61409 | Who knows in what eminent Services it may please your Maker to employ You? |
A61409 | Who knows( I say) what gloomy and dark Intervals these things may occasion? |

A61409 | Will you yet continue to rob your Maker of the Homage and Service you owe him? |
A61409 | Would you not have reason to fear that such nauseous Services would be cast back as Dung upon your Faces? |
A61409 | portionate to the time of your Natural Life, or at least of your Spiritual Life, which commenc''d not long after the other? |
A12167 | ( as the Apostle reasons) shall I defile my vessell with sinne? |
A12167 | 6. Who is this that commeth out of the wildernesse like pillars of smoake, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, with all powders of the Merchant? |
A12167 | 6. there are seven hornes and seven eyes which are the seven spirits of God, here Christ the lambe hath seven eyes and seven hornes: what be these? |
A12167 | 6. you have his love set forth, Hee loved us, and how doth he witnesse it? |
A12167 | A Christian as soone as ever he becomes a Christian, and ever after to death and in death too, he gives up himselfe to Christ? |
A12167 | A turning of Christs speech to the winds to blow upon his Garden: with the End, why? |
A12167 | And againe, Observe it against our Adversaries: What say they? |
A12167 | And as it is an argument that God heares our prayers, so is it of the presence of Christ; for how could wee pray but from his inward presence? |
A12167 | And here how excellently is the expression of Christs mercie, love, and patience set out? |
A12167 | And how was hee used in the Apostles that were after him, and in the Ministers of the Church ever since, What have they indured? |
A12167 | And indeed wherein doth the Church differ from other grounds, but that Christ hath taken it in? |
A12167 | And is it love lost? |
A12167 | And is it not fit that Christ should eat fruit of his owne vine, have comfort of his owne Garden, to tast of his owne fruits? |
A12167 | And is it not monstrous in Grace? |
A12167 | And it is an odious temper to God; for doth not hee deserve cheerefull service at our hands? |
A12167 | And reason the matter, how doth this that I am mooved to suite with my Hopes and expectation to come? |
A12167 | And this also should move us, to be fruitfull, for men will indure a fruitlesse tree in the wast wildernesse, but in their garden who will indure it? |
A12167 | And we have need of feeding as well as breeding: where dost thou feed? |
A12167 | And what greater love, then the love of the soule? |
A12167 | And what shall wee loose by it? |
A12167 | And withall, labour for abundance of the Spirit of God, for what makes men sleepie, and drowsie? |
A12167 | And yet whose imployment is greater, then the imploiment of the cheife Magistrate? |
A12167 | Are not two loving well- wishers well met? |
A12167 | Are the discouragements from impossibilities? |
A12167 | Are wee affraid of men? |
A12167 | Are wee allured by the world? |
A12167 | Aske such ones doe you love God, his Children, and his Word? |
A12167 | Because the former question, namely, What is Christ? |
A12167 | Beloved, Is Christ an excellent golden head and shall he have a base body? |
A12167 | Blessed are they that hunger and thirst,& c. But I am emptie of all? |
A12167 | But How shall we know that Christ is present in us? |
A12167 | But I am stung vvith the sence of my sinnses? |
A12167 | But I shall loose my pleasure? |
A12167 | But how can it be the Churches, when it is not in the Church, but in Christ? |
A12167 | But how com ● ● th ● hee to be thus faire? |
A12167 | But how doth he knocke? |
A12167 | But how lovingly doth he speake to her? |
A12167 | But how shal we know that God heares our Prayers? |
A12167 | But how shall we know that Christ loves us in this peculiar manner? |
A12167 | But how shall we know, whether we be espoused to Christ, or not? |
A12167 | But shee is blacke? |
A12167 | But some may object, Christ can open to himselfe, why doth he not take the key and open, and make way for himselfe? |
A12167 | But to what end must these winds blow upon the Garden? |
A12167 | But what if we doe not kisse him, and subject our selves to him; love him and beleeve in him? |
A12167 | But what is the ground of such love? |
A12167 | But what is this to us or to the Church? |
A12167 | But what is this white and ruddie: what is beauty? |
A12167 | But why is the Church thus earnest? |
A12167 | But you will say, How doth this appeare when in some desertion a Christian finds no grace, strength, or comfort at all? |
A12167 | But, How can this be that there should be conscience of sinne, and no conscience of sinne, a sinner, and yet a perfect Saint and undefiled? |
A12167 | But, How is that? |
A12167 | But, What defence hath Gods poore Church? |
A12167 | But, Why is the Church compared to a Garden? |
A12167 | C ● n a mother forget her sucking child, if she should yet will not I forget thee? |
A12167 | Can I hope to find that of God, that others can not find from me? |
A12167 | Can I love Christ, and can not I love him in whom I see Christ? |
A12167 | Can a mother forget her child? |
A12167 | Can they blindfold him in Heaven that hath this sharp eye? |
A12167 | Can we see more in our selves, then hee doth? |
A12167 | Can we thinke he will suffer us to want that which is needfull? |
A12167 | Can we want righteousnesse, while we have Christs Righteousnesse, is not his garment large enough for himselfe and us too? |
A12167 | Christ can open to himselfe, and wee have no free will, nor power to open? |
A12167 | Consider whence they come? |
A12167 | David wonders at his owne love, Oh how I love thy law, oh how aimeable are thy Tabernacles? |
A12167 | Did Christ ever turne back any that came unto him, if they came out of a true sence of their wants? |
A12167 | Did ever soule love Christ more then that woeman that had so many Divels cast out of her? |
A12167 | Did hee ayme at these imperfect beginnings to rest there? |
A12167 | Doe they take such courses that are wiser then I, and shall not I take the like course too? |
A12167 | Doe wee entertaine Christ to our losse? |
A12167 | Doth Christ by his Spirit discover the secret love the hath borne to us before all worlds? |
A12167 | Doth any man so love his creditor as he that hath much debt forgiven him? |
A12167 | Doth he delight in strangenesse, that makes all this Love to a Christians soule? |
A12167 | Doth hee come emptie? |
A12167 | Doth our love to God abide for ever; and doth not his love to us whence it commeth? |
A12167 | Excuses from Oxen, Wives,& c. Was it not lawfull to buy Oxen? |
A12167 | First, Christ doth use sometimes to leave his Church, as here he doth, My Beloved had withdrawne himselfe,& c. But what kind of leaving is it? |
A12167 | First, those that are not yet in Christ, not contracted to him to draw them; what can prevaile more then that which is in Christ? |
A12167 | For what hath beene the food in Popery? |
A12167 | For would men suffer idle words, yea filthy and rotten talke to come from their mouths if they were awake? |
A12167 | Hath Christ no affections now he is in Heaven, to her that is so neere him as the Church is? |
A12167 | Hath Christ thus infinitly loved us, and shall not wee backe againe make him our love? |
A12167 | Hee hath but two houses to dwell in; the Heavens, and the heart of an humble broken hearted sinner; How can Christ come into the soule? |

A12167 | If God love us thus, what must we doe? |
A12167 | If a man be in love with Christ, what will be harsh to him in the world? |
A12167 | If he giveth himselfe will he not give all things with himselfe? |
A12167 | If the Sister should shut out the Brother, were it not most unnaturall? |

A12167 | If they be good, why doe I stick at them? |
A12167 | If we should aske what is the reason there be so many, that Apostatize, fall away, grow prophane, and are so unfruitfull under the Gospell? |
A12167 | If we study to please men in whom there is but little good; should we not much more study to please Christ the fountaine of goodnesse? |
A12167 | If you aske, why wee must grow up and bee fed still? |

A12167 | In former times when they had not the Scriptures, and the comforts of them to feed on, what did the poore soules then? |
A12167 | In himselfe and in his owne blessed person, what did he endure? |
A12167 | In the next place, are we ready to suffer for Christ? |
A12167 | In this case God will not regard our prayers, as it is said; I care not for your Prayers, or for any service you performe to me: why? |

A12167 | Is it not a comfort to know where to feed and to have pastures to goe to, without suspition of poyson? |
A12167 | Is it not a wonder we stand so long, when Cities, stone walls fall, and Kingdomes come to suddaine periods? |
A12167 | Is it not better to take shame to our selves now, than to be shamed hereafter before Angels, Divels and Men? |

A12167 | My God my God, why hast thou forsaken mee? |
A12167 | My bowels were mooved in mee,& c. What was that? |
A12167 | No, I have put of my coate, how shall I put it on? |
A12167 | Now what meanes of knocking hath hee not used among us a long time? |
A12167 | Now what patience is there in Christ to suffer himselfe in his messengers, and his children to be thus used? |
A12167 | Now whence came all this? |
A12167 | Now you may say, Why is shee so exact in reckoning up so many particulars of her Beloved, his Head, Lockes, Eyes, Lips, and such like? |
A12167 | O But what kind of man was he? |
A12167 | Oh, since I am thus undefiled shall I rest in my selfe? |
A12167 | Or if men be great, why this is not honourable to do thus, as you know what Michall said to David, How glor ● ous was the King of Israell this day? |
A12167 | Propound unto them waking considerations, What causeth our sleepes, but want of matters of more serious observation? |
A12167 | Psalme is to that purpose, O how aymiable are thy Tabernacles O Lord of hosts? |

A12167 | S ● ● l S ● ● l why persecutest thou mee? |
A12167 | Saul Saul why persecutest thou me? |
A12167 | Saul Saul why persecutest thou mee? |
A12167 | Shall I look for mercy that have no mercifull heart my selfe? |
A12167 | Shall a good christian be Chists love, and shall he be the object of my hatred and scorne? |
A12167 | Shall hee make men tender and carefull over others, and shall not he himselfe be carefull of his owne flock? |
A12167 | Shall the Church of God be the love of Christ, and shall it be our hatred? |
A12167 | Shall we thinke much then to waite a little while for him? |
A12167 | Shall we utterly distaste a Christian for that? |
A12167 | Si tuo tempore hec dicebas( O sapiens Au ● us ● ine) quid nostra tempestate d ● xisses? |
A12167 | So if you aske, How we know the Word of God to be the Word of God? |
A12167 | Summer and Winter arise from the presence and absence of the sunne: what causeth the Spring to be so cloathed withall those rich ornaments? |
A12167 | Surely thinks the soule then, he desires my Salvation, and Conversion; And to vvhat kind of persons doth he come? |
A12167 | That we may further improove this point, Is Christ altogether lovely, so lovely to us and so beloved of God the Father? |
A12167 | That which is most precious is most communicating, as the Sunne a glorious creature, what doth so much good as it? |
A12167 | The Church here from what doth shee commend her Beloved? |
A12167 | The Church stood upon tearmes with Christ when he would have come in to her, but what ensued hereupon? |
A12167 | The Lord is my Shepheard, and what is the use that David presently makes hereof? |
A12167 | The Question asked is, What is thy Beloved more then anothers Beloved, O thou fairest among woemen? |
A12167 | The Spouse there is cloathed with the Sunne, with the beames of Christ: but is that all? |
A12167 | The child of God is cast downe when he finds not the presence of God as he was wo ● ● t, his spirits faile? |
A12167 | The consideration hereof made her ashamed of her selfe, what so excellent, so deserving a person as my beloved is to me, to be used of me so? |
A12167 | The honours pleasures and profits that are got by base ingagements to the humours of men, what are these to Christ? |
A12167 | Then the second Question is, whither is thy Beloved gone? |
A12167 | Therefore why doe wee murmure at the crosse, when all is to recover our spirituall taste and rellish? |
A12167 | This drew the Disciples in admiration to say, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the seas obey him? |
A12167 | This fruitlesse estate being often watered from heaven, how fearefully is it threatned by the Holy Ghost? |
A12167 | This here in the text is not such, but a Question tending to further resolution and satisfaction, What is thy Beloved more then another Beloved? |
A12167 | This is one thing that may humble us of this place and nation, that Christ hath no further entrance, nor better entertainement after so long knocking? |
A12167 | This was a noble resolution which was in good Nehemiah, Shall such a man as I flie? |
A12167 | To come in particular, what is that good the Church here confesseth, when shee saith, that her heart waketh? |
A12167 | To come to make an Use of Direction, how to come to be able to say this, I am my Beloveds and my Beloved is mine? |
A12167 | To him that hath shall be given: what is that? |
A12167 | Upon the Crosse, what did hee indure there? |
A12167 | VVhither is he gone, how shall I get Christ? |
A12167 | Variant: cancellandum(?) |
A12167 | Was not he ashamed of us, and shall we be ashamed to owne him and his cause? |
A12167 | We are bidden to delight in the Lord, and in whom should we delight, but where all fullnesse is to be had to delight in? |
A12167 | We may love our friends( and we ought to doe so) and other blessings of God, but how? |

A45333 | The question then will bee, whether this curious fare, costly beds, and other creature- delights be simply unlawful? |
A45333 | The question will be, what is meant by Thirst here? |
A45333 | Then said I, O Lord God cease I beseech thee, by whom shall Jacob arise, for he is small? |
A45333 | Then said I, O Lord God, cease I beseech thee, by whom shall Jacob arise, for he is small? |
A45333 | These obduratesi nners scoft at the Prophets Threatnings, and asked, when will the day of the Lord come? |
A45333 | These snuff at Gods service, and cry, What a wearinesse is this? |
A45333 | They must say with repenting Ephraim, What have I to do any more with Idols? |
A45333 | They that are slain with the Sword are better than they that are slain with hunger; Why so? |
A45333 | This makes them cry here, When will the New- moon be gone that we may sell corn? |
A45333 | Thou sayest, Prophesie not, what follows? |
A45333 | Thou, even thou art to be feared, and who may stand before thee when thou art angry? |
A45333 | Thus the Disciples took Iudas to be like themselves, and therefore when Christ said, One of you shall betray mee, every one asked, Master, is it I? |
A45333 | To what end is it for you thus to speak? |
A45333 | To what purpose serves that contraction and inflection of the voice? |
A45333 | Ubi non est verbum Dei, quid nisi ruina& mors, etsi in speciem omnia florere vid ● antur? |
A45333 | Vis ditari? |
A45333 | We are not troubled with an Army of Locusts, Palmer- worms,& c. these were proper to those Eastern Countries? |
A45333 | We are rich and mighty, and can not easily bee carried away? |
A45333 | We must bless, and not blaspheam, as some that say, The Devil is in the Minister, he hath some Familiar, else how could he know my thoughts? |
A45333 | Wee pitty the Poor, and love them, we never took any thing from them? |
A45333 | What Sin so vile that is not covered with the vayl of a good meaning? |
A45333 | What calmer and smoother than the Sea, yet when stirred what more tempestuous? |
A45333 | What did it profit Ch ● m that he was the Son of Noah? |
A45333 | What did the Lord see in those prophane, Idolatrous Edomites, to move him to call a remnant of them? |
A45333 | What is it that Prayer hath not done? |
A45333 | What promises and rewards are made to the merciful? |
A45333 | What''s that? |
A45333 | When d ● d the Mountains ever run VVine, or the Hills ever melt into Oyl, and Milk, and Honey, and when were all these enjoyments perpetuated? |
A45333 | When hee came home, he said to those at dinner with him, Did you not observe how I went from the subject intended? |
A45333 | Where are the Babylonian, Persian, Grecian Monarchies, which were sometimes famous and flourishing, and the terrour of the world? |
A45333 | Where is now the Doctors corporal, pleasant, external reigning? |
A45333 | Where shall Wisedome be found? |
A45333 | Whither shall I go from thy Spirit? |
A45333 | Who are these that provoke the Lord to anger? |
A45333 | Who plants a Vineyard and doth not eat the fruit of it? |
A45333 | Why doe you not beleeve the Prophets, who being dead yet speak to you, and have left us a more sure word of Prophesie? |
A45333 | Why should yee be smitten any more? |
A45333 | Why sit we here till we dye? |
A45333 | Why yee say, Have we not taken to us Horns by our owne strength? |
A45333 | Will one plow there with Oxen? |
A45333 | With what a horrid stupidity are wee benummed? |
A45333 | Wo unto you that desire the day of the Lord, to what end is it for you? |
A45333 | Yea he that provides so liberally for his enemies, what will he not doe for his friends? |
A45333 | Yea, a wicked Ahab shall not altogether seek to God in vain; and if the shadow can doe so much, what will the substance and real seeking of God doe? |
A45333 | Yea, doe they offer the Fat? |
A45333 | Yee have taken away my gods( saith Micah) and what have I more? |
A45333 | Yee which rejoyce in a thing of nought, which say, Have we not taken to us horns by our own strength? |
A45333 | Yet to come nearer our times, what notorious slanders and lyes have the Papists raised against our Reformers? |
A45333 | You do but dissemble( saith God) with mee, When shall it once bee? |
A45333 | and get into the Ark of Gods favour and protection, and then we may sweetly sing, The Lord is my light and my salvation, whom should I fear? |
A45333 | and goe on in your rebellion against me? |
A45333 | and shall not the Lord visit for these things? |
A45333 | and the Sabbath, that wee may set forth Wheat, making the Ephah small, and the Shekel great, and falsifying the ballances by deceit? |
A45333 | and therefore the Apostle asks, Where shall the ungodly and sinner appear? |
A45333 | and therefore the Lord calls upon his people in the Text to seek and serve him, why so? |
A45333 | and this greedy lust puts them likewise upon Lying, swearing, Usury, Bribery, Perjury, Forgery, and what not? |
A45333 | and what heavie curses are denounced against the unmerciful and cruel man? |
A45333 | are they stronger than he? |
A45333 | but a thousand stripes on a Pharaoh, Saul,& c. doe but make them the more sensless and indurate; and is not this Englands Sin? |
A45333 | but wilt thou not? |
A45333 | did yee serve mee? |
A45333 | even very dark, and no brightness in it? |
A45333 | for if our day ● e terrible, how terrible will the day of the Lord be? |
A45333 | for it is hee that made Pleiades and Orion, i. e. hee made all the glittering Stars; and if the floor of heaven bee so admirable, what is the inside? |
A45333 | for this cruelty, cozening, Idolatty, and Apostasie? |
A45333 | how much more when a community of good men suffers? |
A45333 | how tender should we be of Sion? |
A45333 | i. e. who shall raise and restore him, and make him happy in the enjoyment both of Temporals and Spirituals? |
A45333 | if such Books as derogate from great men must be burnt, how much more such as draw mens hearts from trusting in the living God? |

A45333 | it is a gift, and what more free than gift? |
A45333 | may not the Lord justly complaine of us, as he doth here of Israel? |
A45333 | may not we behold our own faces in this Glass? |
A45333 | may we not eat, drink, and play as we please? |
A45333 | nay, what did he not see in them why he should not reject them? |
A45333 | nor after so many Sabbaths and Sacraments, fasts and feasts? |
A45333 | nor so many awakening judgements? |
A45333 | nor so many melting mercies? |
A45333 | not after so many wooings and warnings? |
A45333 | not after so many years purifying Sermons? |

A45333 | of the night of adversity, as appears by that which follows, I will darken the earth in the clear day, what''s that? |
A45333 | oh that every one would now goe into his Closet, and there seriously ask his soul, What have I done? |

A45333 | return and come, but when? |
A45333 | shall they be affected with our wickedness, and we be insensible? |
A45333 | so that what shall we call them, Grashoppers, or Locusts? |
A45333 | the Earth saith, it is not in me; and the Depth saith, it is not in me,& c. so, where shall ayd in troublous times be found? |
A45333 | they usually mocke them for their pains, saying, What is the burden of the Lord, and when will it come? |
A45333 | wee see men fly from Sword and Famine, and why not from the Pestilence when God gives us an opportunity? |
A45333 | what is this but to draw mens hearts from confiding in God, to trust in lying vanities? |
A45333 | what is this but to fight against God, and to countermand his commands? |
A45333 | what madness is it to be still running after New Lights, which are no Lights for directions? |
A45333 | what then? |
A45333 | what think you? |
A45333 | what''s that? |
A45333 | what? |
A45333 | what? |
A45333 | when shall it once bee? |
A45333 | who can abide his wrath, or the thunder of his power? |
A45333 | who can tell, and who knowes whether God may not repent of the evil that he intends against us? |
A45333 | why he tells you in the next clause, Whither shall I flee from thy presence? |
A45333 | why should not Gods people have their Comes? |
A45333 | will not the Lord visite for these things, and shall not his soul bee avenged on such a Nation as this? |
A45333 | will nothing cleanse thee from thy old abominations? |
A45333 | wilt thou delay to help me? |
A45333 | would you have me idle, and leave that employment to which God so signally, and extraordinarily called me? |
A45333 | yet Amos is said to see God and live? |
A93248 | A man that refuseth heavenly Comforts to imbrace comforts below, how should hee reflect upon himselfe with shame? |
A93248 | Againe teares are good and sound, when wee weepe for our owne sinnes, as well as the sinnes and miseries of others? |
A93248 | Alas, if we have nothing laid up before hand, what will be our end? |
A93248 | All things are yours saith the Apostle, whether Paul, or Apollo, things present, things to come; why? |
A93248 | And if we glory in him now as a God reconciled, what shall we doe in heaven? |
A93248 | And if you ask how they know whether the word be the Word? |
A93248 | And is it not a credit to Religion, when we walke in comfort of the holy Ghost? |
A93248 | And shall not a Christian glory in his God? |
A93248 | And shall the Lord of Hosts make a Feast, and not content the whole man? |
A93248 | And so the Church in Babylon, under what rebukes was it? |
A93248 | And then he will doe it; for what is grace, but an earnest of that fulnesse we shall have in heaven? |
A93248 | And what is joy here, but an earnest of fulnesse of joy for evermore? |
A93248 | And what is the seal of all this? |
A93248 | And what saith the Scripture? |
A93248 | And what were induring of troubles, if something were not in heaven to make amends for all? |
A93248 | And whence is all this but by the death of our blessed Savior Jesus Christ? |
A93248 | And where should the body be, but with the head? |
A93248 | And wil God lose his earnest? |
A93248 | And, woman is this thy faith? |
A93248 | Are not we fit to doe service, when our spirits are most inlarged? |
A93248 | Are we able to justifie these things by the sweetnesse wee have found in them? |
A93248 | As Peter answered when Christ asked him, will you be also gone? |
A93248 | Before he spake of a feast, and if the Feast- maker be not there, what is all? |
A93248 | Being justified by faith, wee have peace with God, and rejoyce under hope of glory; Nay afterwards, saith he, we rejoyce in tribulations: And why? |
A93248 | But how came Christ to feare death, and we not to fear? |
A93248 | But how commeth death to be swallowed up? |
A93248 | But how shall I know whether griefe be right or no? |
A93248 | But how shall we know whether we have this heavenly light and revelation, or no? |
A93248 | But wee are bid to rejoyce alwaies; why then is it required that we weepe and mourne? |
A93248 | But what are these reasons to those which the soule of a gracious Christian knoweth by the operation of the Word upon the heart? |
A93248 | But what is the reason of it? |
A93248 | Can a man see a poore Asse fall under a burthen, and not helpe to take it up, and yet see man falling to hell, and not be affected with it? |
A93248 | Can a worlding glory in his riches, his greatnesse, his favour from such a man, as Haman did? |
A93248 | Canst thou repent of a sinne before it bee committed? |
A93248 | Doth God performe any promise, and so give cause of joy? |
A93248 | First of all by supposition that there bee glorious excellent things? |
A93248 | For the head of the Church, we should spend the time to no purpose to prove it; what was Christs life? |
A93248 | For what is the use of this Feast, but to cherish both soule and spirit? |
A93248 | God hath affections for any condition: Is a man in misery? |
A93248 | Gods manner is first of all to give promises to his Church; why? |
A93248 | Hence may this question be easily answered; VVhence hath the Scripture authority? |
A93248 | Here we have Communion of Saints; but what is this communion of Saints, to Communion with God for ever? |
A93248 | Here we have love, many love tokens from God, I, but what is love to union? |
A93248 | How know you the light to be the light but by it selfe? |
A93248 | How may wee know it is the Word of God, but by the Chu ● ch? |
A93248 | I have found thy words efficacious to comfort and strengthen, and raise, and shall I depart from thee, who hast the words of eternall life? |
A93248 | I professe my selfe to be a Christian, where is my faith? |
A93248 | I saw a pale horse, and death upon it, and after him comes hell: what were death, if it were not for the Pit, and Dungeon that followeth it? |
A93248 | I, but what saith the Church there? |
A93248 | If Christ were so able in his kingdome of patience to conquer our greatest enemies, what will he doe in his kingdome of power? |
A93248 | If wee go to the body and state, or any thing about a man, there is cause of griefe; hath not every member many diseases? |
A93248 | In what case were he, if he should lose that object? |
A93248 | In what state are they now? |
A93248 | Is it not a scandall, when we droope under the crosse? |
A93248 | Is it not the most terrible judgement under heaven to dye in our sinnes? |
A93248 | Is it the consolation of the Almighty, and shall not I embrace it? |
A93248 | Is there nothing for the present, no ground of comfort? |
A93248 | Is this Gods word that giveth this direction, that giveth this comfort, and shall I not regard it? |
A93248 | It makes Lions Lambs, Leopards Kids; And what is the ground of all? |
A93248 | Moses speech is verified of them; They shall be a hissing to all Nations, and is not it a proverbe? |
A93248 | Most of graces are founded upon affection; and all graces are but affections sanctified: what would become of grace, if wee had not affections? |
A93248 | Mountaines of Brasse and Iron are not so firme as this Mountaine; For what sustains the Church but the Word of God? |
A93248 | My God my God why hast thou forsaken me? |
A93248 | Now God can create a new spirituall eye to discerne of spirituall things, which a naturall eye can not; who can see things invisible? |
A93248 | Now it is covered with disgrace, and disrespect in the world, scorned and reproached, but what is that to him? |
A93248 | Now what must follow after this Feast? |
A93248 | O Grave where is thy Victory? |
A93248 | Shall God borrow Authority from men? |
A93248 | So Saul, to morrow thou shalt die, and was he the better? |
A93248 | Some say they can not weep, but they can grieve, whether then is it necessary or no to weepe? |
A93248 | The Jewes wondred at the Manna, saying what thing is this? |
A93248 | The ground wee have of comfort under rebuke, and disgrace, there is a spirit of glory, what is that? |
A93248 | The head of the Church our blessed Saviour, and all his gracious Apostles, what a life did they live? |
A93248 | The virgins put the Church to describe her beloved, what is thy beloved more then another beloved? |
A93248 | The word in his promises to reveale his minde to mankinde, and make knowne what he will have us to doe, and what he will doe to us? |
A93248 | There is no sinne without an error in judgement, there is a vaile of ignorance and unbeliefe; what creature will run into a pit when he seeth it open? |
A93248 | These be very great matters, and therefore there is a great confirmation, they have a seale, and what is that? |
A93248 | They that make a sport of sinne, what are they? |
A93248 | This is a very comfortable consideration, for if death be overcome when it seem''d to overcome Christ, what need wee feare any other enemy? |
A93248 | We have seen the Lord, and what have wee to doe with Idols? |
A93248 | We have sence and feeling of many things, he reserveth not all for heaven; how many sweet refreshments have we in the way? |
A93248 | We must be sensible of any affliction, that wee might joy afterwards, and wee ought to labour for it: For is not the joy of the Lord our strength? |
A93248 | We must doe, and we shall know: But can wee doe, before we know? |
A93248 | What are we? |
A93248 | What doth it in the heart? |
A93248 | What is faith to sight? |
A93248 | What is heaven without him? |
A93248 | What is our faith to those glorious things we shall see hereafter? |
A93248 | What is peace here, but an earnest of that peace in heaven? |
A93248 | What is the chiefest point of wisdome? |
A93248 | What is the reason of all the wickednesse of the world, and barrennesse, and voluptuousnesse, but because they have not learned to wait? |
A93248 | What is the reason of that order? |
A93248 | What is this hope to the fruition of what we hope for? |
A93248 | What is to be feared in the world? |
A93248 | What shall wee doe therefore? |
A93248 | What was Paul before Conversion, and Zaccheus? |
A93248 | Whence hath the Scripture authority? |
A93248 | Wherefore is it that thou wilt reveale thy selfe to us, and not unto the world? |
A93248 | Whether the vaile be yet upon our hearts or no? |
A93248 | Who can take away the wound of a guilty conscience, but he that hath set the conscience in the hearts of men? |
A93248 | Who hath more cause of teares than the best Saints? |
A93248 | Who in the world can say at the houre of death, and day of judgment, Loe, this is my riches, this my honours? |
A93248 | Who is this that cometh out of the wildernesse? |
A93248 | Why doe yee look on me, saith Isaiah? |
A93248 | Why is he called the Lord of Hoasts? |
A93248 | Why should I smite them any more saith God*? |
A93248 | Why? |
A93248 | Why? |
A93248 | Why? |
A93248 | You hear therefore what course to take under disgrace; what shall wee doe, when the Church passeth under disgrace? |
A93248 | You will aske me, how shall I know it is the Word of God, if the Church tells us not? |
A93248 | and is not our lives a kind of hospitall, some sicke of one thing, some of another? |
A93248 | and make his boast in his God? |
A93248 | are they not a word of reproach? |
A93248 | can two contraries stand together? |
A93248 | doe they tend to action? |
A93248 | hee that carried his naturall body, will not hee carry his mysticall body thither too? |
A93248 | no, I will not; whether shall I goe, thou hast the words of eternall life? |
A93248 | that God should reveale these things to me, and not to the world? |
A93248 | the Word, the Spirit of God in the Scriptures: And who is above God? |
A93248 | upon what ground? |
A93248 | what am I? |
A93248 | what creature will runne into the fire, the most dull creature? |
A93248 | what is hope, but for the excellency of the object of hope? |
A93248 | what is patience, but for consideration of that? |
A93248 | where is my hope? |
A93248 | where the Spouse, but with the Husband? |
A93248 | who? |
A93248 | will hee bee in piece- meale in heaven? |
A93248 | you are Christs, and Christ is Gods: what are ours? |
A02852 | ( said she) Art thou such a nouice in my Schoole? |
A02852 | 13.24 Deus de reliquit cum pe ● sequimini& comprehendite, quia non est qui eripiat? |
A02852 | 3 If thou LORD wilt bee extreame to marke what is done amisse: O LORD, who may abide it? |
A02852 | 3 My soule is also sore troubled: but LORD how long wilt thou punish me? |
A02852 | 5 For in death no man remembreth thee: and who will giue thee thankes in the pit? |
A02852 | A Father that hath greater care and prouidence ouer his spirituall children, then any Father can haue ouer his carnall? |
A02852 | A Father that hee will, Almighty that hee can doe good vnto mee? |
A02852 | A Father to loue mee, Almighty to helpe mee? |
A02852 | AND what now shall mine enemies doe? |
A02852 | Againe, what naturall cause beginneth a worke, and leaueth the same vnfinished? |
A02852 | Against a worme? |
A02852 | Alas wretch that I am ▪ Which way shall I turne mee? |
A02852 | And good cause why? |
A02852 | And haddest thou rather be euer without GOD, then with aduersity to attaine him? |
A02852 | And hath not the most noble nature said, that, To them who haue, more shall be giuen? |
A02852 | And hath promised mee many fauoures and rewardes, if I will so doe? |
A02852 | And how can it be otherwise? |
A02852 | And how should man be pure, who springeth from a rotten root? |
A02852 | And how then shall I be able to vnderstand thee? |
A02852 | And now, what death can I feare, when I haue lost the life of my soule? |
A02852 | And now,( O holy GOD) now I haue confessed to thee my owne sinnes in particular, and generally the sinfulnesse of all: what wilt thou doe? |
A02852 | And shall I tell thee, O my friend? |
A02852 | And shall I( most meeke GOD) be the first? |
A02852 | And then what followeth? |
A02852 | And what hope hath the hypocrite, when hee hath heaped vp riches, if GOD taketh away his soule? |
A02852 | And wherfore tariest thou? |
A02852 | And wouldest thou haue him turne his face to thee, being a most heynous sinner? |
A02852 | Are not all the workes of the mighty GOD perfect? |
A02852 | Are thy benefits become so chargeable to thee? |
A02852 | Are thy mercies spent? |
A02852 | Art not thou a sinner, a grieuous sinner? |
A02852 | Art thou so much afraid of feare? |
A02852 | Art thou vngodly and yet honourable and rich? |
A02852 | Art thou wicked and yet wise? |
A02852 | BVT what a maze doe I begin to tread? |
A02852 | BVt how long wilt thou suspend thy mercie and grace? |
A02852 | Being deepely wounded with the greatest griefe, what sence can I haue of ordinary euill? |
A02852 | But for whom should hee require it; if not for those for whom hee merited it? |
A02852 | But is it not vsuall that GOD listneth not to sinners? |
A02852 | But knowest thou not how odious an offence ingratitude is? |
A02852 | But stay, impatient soule, be not so violent in thy desire: GOD hath long expected thy repentance, and canst thou not a while expect his mercie? |
A02852 | But tell me, reasonable man; what reason hast thou not to doe that, which thou seest vnreasonable beasts performe? |
A02852 | But they who haue receiued mercy, who are vnder the protection and guard of grace, in what assurance doe they stand? |
A02852 | But to what end? |
A02852 | But vpon whom? |
A02852 | But what is it to do all these things b ● fore thy face? |
A02852 | But what is this sacrifice of righteousnesse? |
A02852 | But what mooueth thee to doubt and distrust thine estate? |
A02852 | But when is he more neere then at the present Novv? |
A02852 | But when thou shalt offend thy only omnipotent GOD, to whom wilt thou resort for reliefe? |
A02852 | But when, O LORD, when wilt thou regard me? |
A02852 | But where art thou? |
A02852 | But wherefore is a sinner sayd to bee vnprofitable? |
A02852 | But whither( O LORD) doest thou command to depart? |
A02852 | By the way of iustice our great Sauiour only hath gone: none other but hee could euer say, Which of you could reprooue me of sinne? |
A02852 | By whose appointment? |
A02852 | Can this redemption which is of infinite value, bee restreined to any limits of offences? |
A02852 | Dare vile dust, subiest to dispersion by euery puffe, presume to prouoke a LORD of such terrible Maiestie? |
A02852 | Desirest thou then the death of a sinner? |
A02852 | Did not holy Iob say, where shall I hide me from thy countenance because I haue sinned? |
A02852 | Do sinnes make thee vnworthy of mercy? |
A02852 | Doest thou beare thy selfe proud vpon confidence of thy power? |
A02852 | Doest thou not pray to him to turne away his face from thy sinnes? |
A02852 | Doest thou trust in GOD? |
A02852 | Dost thou thinke that GOD will not be more mercifull then man? |
A02852 | Dust and Ashes? |
A02852 | Few indeed: For how many were in the whole world, when it was ouerwhelmed with waters? |
A02852 | Filius? |
A02852 | For if Esau could not finde repentance, albeit hee sought it with Teares; how reasonable may wee suspect our extreame late seeking for repentance? |
A02852 | For in whom should I trust, but in him, who so loued mee? |
A02852 | For of whom should I desire that which I want, but of him who hath giuen me that which I haue? |
A02852 | For tell mee, if thy iu ● tice findeth a man condemned and vnder execution, what will it then doe? |
A02852 | For to whom else shouldest thou resort? |
A02852 | For were it not a dishonour to a King? |
A02852 | For what could be giuen to him who wanted nothing? |
A02852 | For what day? |
A02852 | For what good will pardon doe mee, if presently I returne to my sinne againe? |
A02852 | For what other remedie haue wee feeble wretches? |
A02852 | For what stupendious stupiditie is it, to deferre the most weightie worke of repentance to a future time? |
A02852 | For when men offend, if GOD were not mercifull, if hee were hard and vnwilling to exercise his mercie, what should they doe? |
A02852 | For wherefore are iniuries and aduersities troublesome to thee? |
A02852 | For wherefore did he turne thy heart from sinne? |
A02852 | For wherefore else hast thou repaired the sinne of man, and not of Angels? |
A02852 | For wherefore is remission of sinnes promised, if sinners may not enioy it? |
A02852 | For who can answer the iust charge? |
A02852 | For, because mercie proceedeth from goodnesse, and goodnesse is originally in GOD; who can be so mercifull as hee? |
A02852 | GOD is our Redeemer: it is GOD who iustifieth, who can condemne? |
A02852 | GOD is our patron and Aduocate: If GOD bee on our side who can bee against vs? |
A02852 | Hast thou no more dexteritie in handling thy weapons? |
A02852 | Hath not the same infinite goodnesse and loue sayd? |
A02852 | He hath a long time bin calling thee to repentance, and thinkest to thou haue his mercy at the very first cal? |
A02852 | He who forgaue 10000. talents, what may wee thinke he will not forgiue? |
A02852 | Hee that forbeareth his vnrulie childe, will he also forbeare his vngracious seruant? |
A02852 | Hee was slow to wrath, and wouldest thou haue him sodaine in mercie? |
A02852 | Herein all are agreed, but wherein then lieth the difference? |
A02852 | How acceptable then may we thinke this sacrifice to be, wherein so many vertues were conspicuous in the highest degree of perfection? |
A02852 | How art thou so enamoured with our sinnefull soules, that thou wilt not turne the eyes of thy Maiesty from them? |
A02852 | How can we be able, I will not say to expresse; but to vnderstand, to imagine thy sweet gentlenesse and loue? |
A02852 | How canst thou say that I am not polluted? |
A02852 | How come they so deare vnto thee, that neither danger nor want can seize vpon them? |
A02852 | How commeth it, O LORD, that thou art so ready to heare vs? |
A02852 | How hath my tongue galloped to destruction, euen vpon credite? |
A02852 | How it stoppeth the streames? |
A02852 | How little a portion haue we of him? |
A02852 | How little relish haue they in those flashie vnsinewie pleasures, which breake the forces of the soule, and cast it into a drunken dreame? |
A02852 | How long shall I bee as if I were, either not remembred, or little regarded? |
A02852 | How louing a Father art thou to forsaken Orphanes? |
A02852 | How manie are held in the yron chaines of sinne and the deuill, who neither bewaile, nor confesse, nor see their miserie? |
A02852 | How many among the chosen people of GOD, when Elias could not espie one? |
A02852 | How many in Sodome and the cities adioining to it, when they perished with fire? |
A02852 | How many indignities and discontentments haue I therein buried? |
A02852 | How many, when they were often captiuated, and finally ruined, and dispersed? |
A02852 | How much more ready art thou to pardon, then to punish? |
A02852 | How much more ready to grant thy pardon, then wee to desire it? |
A02852 | How obdurate is my heart? |
A02852 | How often hath his iustice taken the whip in hand, to chastice thy sinnes? |
A02852 | How shal I know thee? |
A02852 | How shall I euer winde my selfe out of this knotty labyrinth? |
A02852 | How shall I free my selfe from the iawes of death? |
A02852 | How shall I looke so good a Father in the face, beeing so lewd a child as would disthrone and destroy that good Father if I could? |
A02852 | How shall I publish and praise the same? |
A02852 | How shall I then partake of thy goodnesse? |
A02852 | How shall I worthily either extoll or esteeme thee? |
A02852 | How sottish thy sence? |
A02852 | How standeth this with the square of Iustice? |
A02852 | How vaine is thy confidence? |
A02852 | How with the vile society which he is constrained to endure? |
A02852 | If all the good which I either haue or expect floweth from thy most liberall hand, vpon whom else should I depend? |
A02852 | If my ignorance bee so dull and heauy in my selfe, how shall I be of capacity to know thee? |
A02852 | If thou LORD wilt bee extreame to marke what is done amisse: O LORD, who may abide it? |
A02852 | In him who hath so often called, so long expected, so carefully perswaded mee? |
A02852 | In him who is a Father, an Almighty Father? |
A02852 | In him who is so mercifull, pitifull, louing, gentle, patient, and ready to forgiue,? |
A02852 | In how wilde a chase doe my perplexed thoughts wander? |
A02852 | In offering this sacrifice, and in presenting these merits, what can we feare? |
A02852 | In this li ● e we may both dispose our selues, and incite others to blazon thy praise; but in the dungeon of death, who will thanke thee? |
A02852 | In what cloud doest thou hide thy selfe? |
A02852 | Indulsisti genti Domine, indulsisti: nunquid glorificatus es? |
A02852 | Into euerlasting fire? |
A02852 | Into what vaine hopes doest thou run? |
A02852 | Is any like vnto the most high? |
A02852 | Is any other like vnto him? |
A02852 | Is he only blessed, or is he chieflie blessed whose sinnes are forgiuen? |
A02852 | Is it not a greater blessing neuer to sinne, then to haue sinnes pardoned? |
A02852 | Is it out of opinion of safetie? |
A02852 | Is it then vpon small offenders? |
A02852 | Is not hee more blessed who sinneth not at all? |
A02852 | Is the cause heereof in thee? |
A02852 | Is thine anger no lesse hard to quench now, then heeretofore it hath beene to kindle? |
A02852 | It is hard indeed; but how is it iust? |
A02852 | It is true indeed that their sensuall appetites present to them a thousand pleasures; but the reckoning being cast, what pleasures are they? |
A02852 | Iustice hath proceeded slowlie, that sinners might haue time to repent; and must mercie foortwith gallop to them? |
A02852 | Knowest thou not that rebellious ingratitude giueth limits to mercy? |
A02852 | LORD, If thou beest my beginning and my end, whom else should I desire? |
A02852 | Lastly, in whom should I trust but in him, who hath commanded me to approch to him, to trust in him? |
A02852 | My sinnes are vpon me how then shall I liue? |
A02852 | Nay, Is it possible that hee should forbeare thee? |
A02852 | Now, this being the condition of my case, What rigour wilt thou further vse? |
A02852 | O my GOD, wilt not thou relieue mee in these extremities? |
A02852 | Or if he do, shall he euer attaine glorie by his atchieuement? |
A02852 | Qui ● potest facere mundum de immundo? |
A02852 | Quis appendit iti bus digitis molem terra? |
A02852 | Quis potest facera mundum de immundo conceptis semine monne t ● qui solus es? |
A02852 | Requirest thou griefe? |
A02852 | Requirest thou punishment? |
A02852 | Say, I pray thee: What is the worst that a sinner can feare? |
A02852 | Seest thou not that he also is set against thee? |
A02852 | Shall I say thou art a vertue? |
A02852 | Shall man forgiue sooner and oftner then GOD? |
A02852 | Shall not he who forgaue to one debtor 10000. talents, be alwayes willing to forgiue? |
A02852 | Shall not hee whose arme is neuer shortned, be alwayes able to forgiue? |
A02852 | Shall thy wrath still contend with thy mercie against me? |
A02852 | Shall we now be despised, and neuer any despised before? |
A02852 | Supposest thou thy selfe to be rapt vp into the third heauen? |
A02852 | That his hand is rigorous vpon thee? |
A02852 | The rich? |
A02852 | The soule which is sensible of a needels point? |
A02852 | Then shall that of the Prophet take place, Doest thou shew wonders among the dead? |
A02852 | Thinkest thou he will fauour thee? |
A02852 | Thou art not well assured to liue one houre, and darest thou make to thy selfe a prodigall promise of manie yeeres? |
A02852 | Thou who hast alwaies beene slowe to wrath, art thou slow now to lay downe thy wrath? |
A02852 | Thou who hast euer beene patient, art thou now become inflexible? |
A02852 | To what end then did thy Wisedome create mee in this World? |
A02852 | V. For in death no man remembreth thee: and who will giue thee thankes in the pit? |
A02852 | VVhat euill can either assaile or approach you? |
A02852 | VVhat good doe you not enioy? |
A02852 | VVhat is more vsuall in noble natures, then to follow their owne fauours? |
A02852 | VVhat wilt thou do more against me? |
A02852 | VVhat? |
A02852 | VVhat? |
A02852 | VVhen Mary Magdalene was vniustlie reprooued by a censorious pharisee; she held silence; but what lost she thereby? |
A02852 | VVho will despaire? |
A02852 | VVhy sufferest thou me thus long to be vexed? |
A02852 | VVilt thou also presse me downe with thine Almighty arme? |
A02852 | Vntill the very houre of his encounter? |
A02852 | WHom may we esteeme blessed in this life? |
A02852 | What a punishment of losse is this? |
A02852 | What auayleth it to haue a goodly hope of haruest in the blade, if it be blasted or otherwise destroyed in the eare? |
A02852 | What comforts and delights breathe hourely from thee? |
A02852 | What courage can behold thy fierce bended brow, and not bee astonished, not stroke downe with terrour? |
A02852 | What death is so grieuous as this departing? |
A02852 | What friends, what suit will hee make for his discharge? |
A02852 | What is lightning but the flashes of pleasure in this life? |
A02852 | What is the cause? |
A02852 | What louely lookes doest thou cast vpon those whom thou encountrest? |
A02852 | What man will desire or endure to serue his enemie, his fellow, or his seruant? |
A02852 | What need I speake of his high humility; by which he would be accounted worse then Barabbas? |
A02852 | What other accusers? |
A02852 | What other euidence will thy iustice require? |
A02852 | What profit is it that trees blossome fairely, if they neuer atteine perfection in the fruit? |
A02852 | What sad seueritie will thy anger further execute vpon me? |
A02852 | What shall I doe? |
A02852 | What shall I say of thee? |
A02852 | What shall I say? |
A02852 | What strength can stand vnder thy Almighty arme? |
A02852 | What then shall I say now I am in so neere distance before thee? |
A02852 | What will it auaile that I bee washed, if foorthwith I plunge my selfe in the mire? |
A02852 | What wilt thou doe? |
A02852 | What? |
A02852 | What? |
A02852 | What? |
A02852 | What? |

A02852 | What? |
A02852 | What? |
A02852 | What? |
A02852 | What? |
A02852 | When Ioab had defeated Abner, and chased his armie with a long execution, Abner cried to him; Shall the sword deuoure for euer? |
A02852 | When inebriate me with desire of thee? |
A02852 | When may he more easily be found? |
A02852 | Where now is thy assurance? |
A02852 | Wherefore art thou so angry? |
A02852 | Wherefore doe wee forsake the liuing springs, and digge broken pits that will hold no water? |
A02852 | Wherefore hast thou cut off thy comforts from me? |
A02852 | Wherefore hidest thou thy face and takest me for thine enemie? |
A02852 | Wherefore so seuere? |
A02852 | Wherefore then hidest thou thy face and takest me for thine enemie? |
A02852 | Wherefore then withholdest thou thy mercy in displeasure? |
A02852 | Wherefore wilt not thou make thy peace in time, whilest he is far off? |
A02852 | Wherefore( then) doest thou thus iudge me? |
A02852 | Whither shall I flie? |
A02852 | Whither then shall I flie? |
A02852 | Who can abide with the deuouring fire? |
A02852 | Who can dwell with the euerlasting flames? |
A02852 | Who can either resist, or rule the violence of these feares? |
A02852 | Who can endure thy heauy charge? |
A02852 | Who can stand before thee? |
A02852 | Who dares thinke vpon the iust punishment for his offences? |
A02852 | Who may then remember thee as he should, being vnder the hand of thy terrible wrath? |
A02852 | Who shall defend thee? |
A02852 | Who shall deliuer? |
A02852 | Who shall either loue thee or laud thee in the ouglie den of death? |
A02852 | Who should receiue iudgement, if mercy did alwaies wait vpon sinners? |
A02852 | Who then will giue me the eyes of an Eagle, that I may beholde this Sunne? |
A02852 | Who will giue mee wings, that as a Doue I may approach this height? |
A02852 | Who will not feare the king of nations? |
A02852 | Whom wil it not appal? |
A02852 | Why doest thou leaue me in this distressed case? |
A02852 | Will a Giant make proofe of his prowesse against a Gnat? |
A02852 | Wilt thou fixe thine eyes vpon vs indeede? |
A02852 | Wilt thou make proofe of thy prowesse against my weakenesse? |
A02852 | Wilt thou not beleeue them? |
A02852 | Wilt thou proceed against thine owne appointment? |
A02852 | Wilt thou pursue a smoke, a shadow, a thing of nothing? |
A02852 | Wilt thou turne away thy face foreuer? |
A02852 | Wilt thou violate the direct rule of thy iustice? |
A02852 | Wilt thou vse thy strength against a leafe? |
A02852 | a grieuous punisher of grieuous sinnes? |
A02852 | against a leafe? |
A02852 | against a shadow? |
A02852 | against dry stubble? |
A02852 | against nothing? |
A02852 | all hope? |
A02852 | and not bee enflamed with the loue of his creator? |
A02852 | and thy righteousnesse in the land where all things are forgotten? |
A02852 | and to whom hee hath made himselfe an example? |
A02852 | and what frozen heart can receiue them, and not bee melted into delight? |
A02852 | and which maketh death a pleasant passage to life? |
A02852 | bruised by originall, but altogether broken by our actuall sinnes? |
A02852 | but because hee purposed to make thee cleane? |
A02852 | but who can vnderstand his fearefull power? |
A02852 | can the LORD repent of any thing that hee saith or doeth? |
A02852 | deemest thou that GOD hath created hell fire onely to punish damned sinners and the Diuell? |
A02852 | desirest not thou rather that sinners should liue? |
A02852 | did my sorrow sit so neere thy heart? |
A02852 | doest thou loose any thing by giuing to me? |
A02852 | euen for companie and fellowshippe of others? |
A02852 | expectest thou saluation by him? |
A02852 | expectest thou to be releeued by him? |
A02852 | from the gripes of hel? |
A02852 | how am I oppressed? |

A02852 | how long shall this hungry appetite torment my soule? |
A02852 | how long will thine indignation? |

A02852 | how many would gladly forsake their wicked liues? |

A02852 | in him who hath suffered so grieuously for mee? |
A02852 | into what perplexities is my poore sorrow- beaten soule plunged? |
A02852 | is it to a certaine degree and measure of sinne? |
A02852 | is not GOD a searcher of sinnes? |
A02852 | is not this thy word? |
A02852 | is this a good reasoning with thy goodnesse? |
A02852 | is thy louing kindnesse at an end? |
A02852 | knowest thou not that holy men, the ancient worthies of the world, sailed for the most part with the winde in their face? |
A02852 | neither haue I followed Baalim? |
A02852 | or am I only cancelled out of thy conceit? |
A02852 | or is it for idle ease? |
A02852 | or is it in my selfe? |
A02852 | or shall I terme thee some Deitie? |
A02852 | or shall the dead rise againe and praise thee? |
A02852 | or tell mee: what els requirest thou from me? |
A02852 | or the sonne of man that thou so regardest him? |
A02852 | presumptuous wretch, Wither art thou carried? |
A02852 | said hee: doest thou any thing doubt of the great mercies of GOD? |
A02852 | shall I acquaint thee with an infallible experience, how all the calamities of this life may not onely bee endured, but vtterly broken? |
A02852 | shall it not bleed at the strokes of lances and swords? |
A02852 | shall my anguish endure? |
A02852 | shall my sinnes be stronger to condemne me, then thy mercies to saue mee? |
A02852 | shall my sinnes surmount thy goodnesse? |
A02852 | shall thy louing kindnes be shewed in the graue, or thy faithfulnes in ● estruction? |
A02852 | shall thy wondrous works be shewen in the darke? |
A02852 | since I haue so iust causes and reasons, to resort vnto thee, wherefore is not my soule and all the abilities thereof enflamed with desire of thee? |
A02852 | so easie to pardon vs? |
A02852 | such a faint and raw souldier in spirituall combate? |
A02852 | that he turneth away his eare, and will not heare them? |
A02852 | the honourable? |
A02852 | the mighty? |
A02852 | the multitude and grieuousnesse of thy sinnes? |
A02852 | the politicke and wise? |
A02852 | then to loue those most, vpon whom they haue bestowed greatest benefits? |
A02852 | there is no labour, no calamitie, albeit daily storming, daily encreasing, but by thee is made tolerable? |
A02852 | thinkest thou that I am come to combate with thee? |
A02852 | to be already placed in Abrahams bosome? |
A02852 | to defie thy fury? |
A02852 | to heape many honours vpon such as haue beene first aduanced by them? |
A02852 | to punish my desire so much with delay? |
A02852 | to reap where thou didst not sow,& gather where thou diddest not disperse? |

A02852 | when shall I find all that dead in me, which is not delightfull to thee? |
A02852 | when shall I finde all impediments remooued which hold me from thee? |

A15013 | How much more must God punish in you, that perhaps have done it oftner, and that without any such motive, and to far worse purposes? |
A15013 | How shall his anger burne against presumptuous and wilfull sinners? |
A15013 | How soon doe children begin to shew it? |
A15013 | How sure is his punishment in Hell whom God in his just wrath would not suffer to live on earth? |
A15013 | How then can I be killed by the Philistins? |

A15013 | How was love and faithfullnesse joyned both in one act? |

A15013 | I answer, if he feared his Brethren, are not you to feare God? |
A15013 | I find Him still surviving, in my breast enshrin''d; And who can say that he''s of life bereaven That lives in''s works, inpious hearts in Heaven? |
A15013 | I pray you consider whether God have vouchsafed these unto you, hath he caused you to feare his name? |
A15013 | I pray you consider, have have you this vertuous feare of God? |
A15013 | I pray you every one, set your consciences a worke to finde out your owne sinnefullnesse in this kinde; Doe not many of your hands refuse to labour? |
A15013 | I speake to thee that art poore and coursely clad, Doe not you thinke that you are as good men and women as those that are finelier clad? |

A15013 | If a man that hath no horse be friended with a good one, shall he be proud of it? |
A15013 | If a thing be required, and possible, why should we not addresse our selves unto it? |
A15013 | If any man amongst you finde himselfe so earthly disposed, let him earnestly condemne himselfe, and say alas, what a slave am I to riches? |
A15013 | If any say I hope not so, I answer him, where be the grounds of his hope? |
A15013 | If any say, but we see that such men meete with evill enough in the world? |
A15013 | If any say, how shall we enquire of God now, seeing we are now destitute of extraordinary Prophets, by whose meanes we may seek unto him? |

A03694 | And what to sell all for saluation, but to giue all in the bargaine, that we may be saued? |
A03694 | And when vvil such be sorie for their imperfect and hypocriticall righteousnesse? |
A03694 | And wherefore sanctifie it, but because it was vncleane, and yet a Church? |
A03694 | And who art thou? |
A03694 | And who can trust him? |
A03694 | And who that loueth not darknesse, will abide the tongue of darknesse? |
A03694 | And who, in such an errour, so yeelded vnto, will desire any change? |
A03694 | And why such a strife? |
A03694 | And( then) shall not that and that onely that hee approoueth bee approoueable? |
A03694 | And, art thou onely vnhappy, and miserable, because God giueth thee correction? |
A03694 | And, can any be more lost, then so lost? |
A03694 | And, can any man be too good to preuent so great a danger toward ● himselfe, though he will not doe good, by preuenting it in mercie toward others? |
A03694 | And, doe not our Labans, sonnes say, at least, thinke as much now? |
A03694 | And, doe we stop our noses at vnsauourie smels, and vvill vvee thrust them into an vncleane dunghill, by taking delight in lying vanities? |
A03694 | And, is it not a fearefull thing, for the creature to stand in check, or to stand foe to God his Creatour? |
A03694 | And, shall Cains mouth condemne you, who( so ordinarily) by your inordinate wayes, depart from God, and, in contempt, from his house? |
A03694 | And, shall vvee keepe silence, vvhen no good man may hold his peace? |
A03694 | And, vvhat hope is there that wee shall bee saued, so erring in our wayes, till GOD bring vs to our right way, vvhich he doth by meanes? |
A03694 | And, vvho sanctifieth but the holy Ghost? |
A03694 | And, what is it to goe from God, but to runne into euill? |
A03694 | And, which is better, to sinne greedily and willingly, or of infirmitie, and partly against our will? |
A03694 | And, who shall make this example of him, but Magistrates, and such as are in authoritie? |
A03694 | And, who will trust him that is false to all? |
A03694 | Are not fallers away winked at? |
A03694 | Are there not among persons in authoritie, some Merchants and Factors for the fift Monarchie, that it may not goe vtterly into destruction? |
A03694 | Are there not that reuolt to Poperie from our assemblies, euen to this houre? |
A03694 | Augustine will not haue a lye told to saue a Mans life, and would hee allow it for the pleasure of Mans life? |
A03694 | Besides, the Lyer is contrary to God, be hee Lyer in sport or earnest? |
A03694 | But Charitie requireth that we doe good to our Neighbour? |
A03694 | But are there no Pilates now on the Bench, who are readie to loose Barrabas, and to condemne Christ? |
A03694 | But doth any man so naturally, or till God by grace alter him? |
A03694 | But how long had hee peace in his dayes, that had such peace in his wealth? |
A03694 | But how many Roysters, Tiplers, Gamelters, good- fellowes e, mbraced the Stake& hot flames of fire in those raging dayes? |

A03694 | But let not this care trouble you, saith Saint Peter, for yee are Pilgrimes and strangers; and what know ye if yee shall see one short houre more? |
A03694 | But may lying at no hand be indured? |
A03694 | But may not a man haue these outward things, in some good measure,& be godly? |
A03694 | But may not a man without sinne, heare of his Neighbours faults, his Neighbour not in place? |
A03694 | But must all haue a calling? |
A03694 | But must great men doe this dutie? |
A03694 | But shall I runne from my Fathers house, because a bad seruant is in it? |
A03694 | But some may say, are wee drawne as stockes, and as things without life? |
A03694 | But suppose it were in our power and hands to repent when wee would, were it not great madnesse to sinne wilfully and presumingly because of that? |
A03694 | But the sickenesse of desire being vvithin, how can things vvithout vs bee the cure of it? |
A03694 | But vvhat get they by such vnrighteousnesse? |

A03694 | But you vvill say; and vvhat man( then) shall not be odious to God, for, all men are liars? |
A03694 | But, are these sinnes the onely sinnes that make such waste, and cause such want? |
A03694 | But, can a man goe from God? |
A03694 | But, how many good- fellowes( as we call good fellowship) and drinking mates, and dicing mates, and other lose mates,( then) receaued such honour? |
A03694 | But, must godly Gouernours be so carefull to chuse religious persons, whom they must admit to seruice and places about them? |
A03694 | But, should dissemblers be watched ouer by good Gouernours? |
A03694 | But, what furtherance doth the stray- sheepe giue to the Shepheard of finding and bringing him backe vpon his shoulders with ioy? |
A03694 | But, who is more turned to GOD for it? |
A03694 | But, who will suppresse sinne in others, who fauoureth it in himselfe? |
A03694 | Caiaphas was against Christ, and were not his men against him? |
A03694 | Commeth this from the Earth, and( altogether) from a troubled skie? |
A03694 | Dauid at the hands of Nabal? |
A03694 | Did God forget the widow of that Prophets son that feared the Lord, and died in some debt? |
A03694 | Doe not brethren call some of their godly brethren, Puritans? |
A03694 | Doe they hunt after the fauour of some great Man? |
A03694 | Doe vve not disgrace such as are faithfull, with vnseemely titles? |
A03694 | Doe vve not open presently to a great man that knocketh? |
A03694 | Doe wee speake as if God had made our tongues? |
A03694 | Doth he not destroy all those who goe a whoring from him, vvhether after the commodities, preferments, or pleasures of life? |
A03694 | Doth not a Christian cal his fellow Christian Hypocrite, Sectary, Raca, Foole? |
A03694 | Doth not the plague enter where they enter? |
A03694 | Doth the presence of a mortall man or woman( sometimes) bridle vs from that we would doe? |
A03694 | First, men can not endure a grudging giuer: and will God respect him? |
A03694 | For how can these but countenance false Religion, when they will be hyred for a matter of nothing to marry with it? |
A03694 | For what Goates doe they rise, when they rise from their drinke? |
A03694 | For what will not wealth doe to the help of riot, that pouertie can not? |
A03694 | For who doth not lye to him? |
A03694 | For, are such plants of the Deuils se ● ting? |
A03694 | For, did our repentance, or any worke of ours seeke and finde that comfortable alteration at Gods hands? |
A03694 | For, haue you cared to make your Seruants, the Seruants of God, that they might be good Seruants to you? |
A03694 | For, how can it be but that God should plague those that destroy his people, and abhorr ● those that conde ● ne his law? |
A03694 | For, how haue I redeemed it; that is, bought it out of Satans hands, and the hand of sinne, for good employments? |
A03694 | For, how vnwilling are they to come home to their heauenly Father by the Grace of Repentance, from whom they depart daily by the Errour of Sinne? |
A03694 | For, if euery day vvere as our marriage- day, vvho vvould be vvearie? |
A03694 | For, the speech is made to expresse the true meaning of the heart: and if that doe not, what shall? |
A03694 | For, they that sing, are( commonly) merrie: and the Apostle Iames saith; Is any merry? |
A03694 | For, to such what meanes remaine to reclaime them from their vaine conuersation? |
A03694 | For, what can be more indifferent, then that hee who prepareth a pit for another, should fall( himselfe) into it? |
A03694 | For, what drinking of healths, till men haue drunke themselues out of health, out of wit, and commonly out of common sense and honesty? |
A03694 | For, what is it to slander in a true report, but to speake against our Neighbour, and to blaze his weakenesse at all times, and before all companies? |
A03694 | For, what peace( as Iehu saide to Iehoram) whiles the whore domes of Iezabel and her witchcrafts are in such number? |
A03694 | For, wherefore doe vvee loue a worldling, but because wee are in our disposition, worldlings? |
A03694 | For, who shall punish idolatrie, when Ieroboam( he who is King) is giuen vnto it? |
A03694 | For, who should doe most worke, but hee that receiueth most wages? |
A03694 | For, whom will he slander? |
A03694 | From whence are warres, saith Saint Iames, but from the lusts that fight in your members? |
A03694 | Giue a small thing with a good heart, and it is well taken; but offer a better thing vnwillingly, and it is not regarded: and wherefore not regarded? |
A03694 | Gods wisedome is( incomparably) great, and who is like him in knowledge? |
A03694 | Gods? |
A03694 | Gods? |
A03694 | Haue not some laid but all vpon vaine and chargeable brauery from their Hat- string to their shooe- strings? |
A03694 | Haue not some, hauing turned all to destruction with the riots of Dice and Gaming, turned beggars, who were Gentlemen well descended and left? |
A03694 | Haue they not? |
A03694 | Haue wee enemies? |
A03694 | Haue you set them about Gods worke, on his day, as you are carefull to set them about your owne worke on other dayes? |
A03694 | How can they but drinke themselues out of all, who drinke so much, and so continually day and night? |
A03694 | How priuily vvill hee accuse him? |
A03694 | How( then) can the Scriptures make vs perfect in all good works? |
A03694 | How( then) can wee loue God, and hate the good that are so like him? |
A03694 | I pray you, who did swagger more then Ismael, whose hand was against euery man? |
A03694 | I say not soberly: for, do we not giue our tongues libertie to say any thing of our enemies, and of our betters, if they be our enemies? |
A03694 | If no Lyer nor kinde of lye may be abidden by Christians, then is not the merrie lye tolerable ● nor the officious or profitable lye lawful? |
A03694 | If such complaine of vntrusty Seruants and euill Ministers, whom can they blame but themselues? |
A03694 | If vve reioyced in goodnesse, would wee delight to be vvhere vve shall heare little goodnes, and much euill? |
A03694 | If you loue the loue of Christ with all your heart; who, or what shall separate you from it? |
A03694 | In doing this, we are Gods seruants, and, is any too good or great to doe him seruice? |
A03694 | In our owne dayes, doe not men, as in stealing ● so in coueting proceede from a pinne to a point; from small couetousnesse to large couetousnesse? |
A03694 | Is it any credit to grace a theefe and robber? |
A03694 | Is it not better to haue Lamps without store of Oyle, then to haue neyther Lamps nor Oyle; that is, neyther meanes nor meaning to attend Christ? |
A03694 | Is it not to make them to call their sinne to remembrance, and their hearts to repentance? |
A03694 | Is it not to shew what power he hath, both in his right and left arme, that the carelesse in our Land may feare and be humbled before his great glory? |
A03694 | Is not he that is Lord of the bodie, Lord of the spirit also? |
A03694 | Is not truth fallen in the streetes? |
A03694 | Is the dropsie cured vvith a parcell of Land, with a portion of Money, or vvith a braue suite of apparell? |
A03694 | Lastly, is it intolerable to tell lyes? |
A03694 | Likewise, Christians, so farre as they were followers of their lusts ● how vntowardly, how negligently did they follow God? |
A03694 | Lord haue mercy vpon vs, what a thing is this? |
A03694 | Lust is a dropsie of the minde; and will things helpe it, that belong onely to the bodie, and can( properly) satisfie the minde in nothing? |
A03694 | Many say, Who will shew vs any good? |
A03694 | May we not lye to doe good? |
A03694 | Meane while, whose Martyrs bee such? |
A03694 | Must hee not be sanctified? |
A03694 | Nay, who can abide that that so prouoketh the Lord, that he can not abide vs? |
A03694 | Now are these fit mates for a Christian to dwell with? |
A03694 | Now fire well gouerned, will warme vs, but misguided, vndoe vs; and who will not looke to his fire? |
A03694 | Now he began to thinke, and in such debate with himselfe, to say; How many hyred Seruants of my Fathers haue bread enough? |
A03694 | Now if an vnregenerate heart in one trulie renued, did so soone and dangerously yeeld to euill, what may the best iudge of his heart at this day? |
A03694 | Now is it necesssary for the King often to reade in the word, to teach him to rule? |
A03694 | Now that which is so entire and independent, what lacketh it that it hath not? |
A03694 | Now what is it to leaue all for Christ, but to abandon the world, and all worldly desires, that vve may be Christs? |
A03694 | Now, can a dead man raise his owne body? |
A03694 | Now, can not a man abide the Diuell, and will hee agree with his vncleane brood? |
A03694 | Now, if it be crueltie in the Ministers of Iustice to roote them out, how can it be but hee must be cruell, who comma ● nds them to be rooted out? |
A03694 | Now, is God incomparably wise? |
A03694 | Now, may no sinne bee spared, not offender boren with? |
A03694 | O good Lord, shall vnrepentant liars neuer enter into heauen? |
A03694 | O( then) wouldest thou be without feare of the power? |
A03694 | Of an excellent Prophet we read, that his life claue to the dust; but vvhat follovveth? |
A03694 | One saith well; would any man that is sober and in his right minde, surfet of his meate because hee hath a Pill in his Closet? |
A03694 | Or shall wee care who disprayseth our song, so he like it? |
A03694 | Or, are they blessed whom God correcteth? |
A03694 | Or, haue Men committed a fault? |
A03694 | Or, to speake more to purpose; Doth not the Lord bring to light that which is within, by that which is without? |
A03694 | Or, why doe they with so lost a conscience put off repentance, as if that were in their gift, which is not theirs but Gods to giue? |
A03694 | Or, will it hurt thee that God loueth thee? |
A03694 | Salomon sayth, He that keepeth his mouth, by ordering aright the tongue in his mouth, keepeth his life; and who would lose his life that may keepe it? |
A03694 | Secondly, a good man will make choyse of his company which he vseth seldome; and shall he be carelesse of the Familie which hee must vse daily? |
A03694 | Secondly, the proud robbe God of his glorie; and shall the spoylers of God be spared? |
A03694 | Secondly, they that are lusts seruants, will doe any thing at lusts bidding: and, what did this lost Sonne with- hold from his lusts which he serued? |
A03694 | Secondly, vvho can abide that whereby Satan raigneth in the heart of him who is possessed of it, as in his Kingdome? |
A03694 | Secondly, we may saue a soule from Hell: and, who can doe too much, or be too good to deliuer his brother from perdition? |
A03694 | Seeing( then) wee lay forth our hearts thus in these bodily actions, who will not say that our heart is as these are? |
A03694 | Shall I need to goe into a farre Countrie for examples? |
A03694 | Shall a stranger be receiued, and shall hee that oweth the house stand without? |
A03694 | Shall not his direction be perfect that hath all perfection? |
A03694 | Shall strange affections finde no deniall, and will wee not returne to the Lord of our hearts, that his louing correction may make vs whole? |
A03694 | Sixtly, who can abide that that shutteth out of heauen, and casteth into hell? |
A03694 | Smite Ammon, kill him, feare not for haue not I commanded? |
A03694 | So the ● ● ngue, well ordered, will comfort vs; but set at large, shame vs: who( then) will giue such a member libertie? |
A03694 | So this same Prophet hated, but whom? |
A03694 | So, if we hate lying, if our heart rise against it, if we thinke of it as of an enemie, would wee loue liars? |
A03694 | So, you would haue a good family, when your care is not to graft it with good Seruants? |
A03694 | Some esteeme those to be the onely wise men, who can goe beyond others in wit and fetches: but what was Achitophel? |
A03694 | That is, doe they not hoord vp corne, where God hath said, and the poore mans hunger doth say, Sell corne? |
A03694 | The Kings Chayre is kept cleane, and shall the holinesse of the Lord be violated? |
A03694 | The lust of daunces, and lustfull after them, how doe they martyr their bodies, and fill the soule vvith vvickednesse? |
A03694 | The lust of drunkennesse, vvhat vvounds procureth it, vvhat stripes, and scratches, and desperate stabbes? |
A03694 | The one doth it with intended profit, the other suffereth it with apparent hurt; and who hath the greater sinne? |
A03694 | Then hee came to himselfe, and said: How many hired Seruants at my Fathers haue bread enough, and I dye for hunger? |
A03694 | Therefore where it may be Master, what good can follow? |
A03694 | They that are taken with the net of the whorish woman, will they not, for her sake, bring all to a morsell of bread? |
A03694 | Thirdly, all things are vile to that a man doth most affect: for, if wee loue God best, what will vvee not doe for him? |
A03694 | Thirdly, what is man fallen, but a rebellious creature ● proud by Nature, and stubborne to Grace? |
A03694 | Thirdly, what is perfect but that which is entire of it selfe, and needeth nothing? |
A03694 | This is the good Subiects hope: but take this hope from him, and what is his life, but a life of sorrow and paine, or of death, which were better? |
A03694 | This young man had riches, but was he rich? |
A03694 | Thus Dauid vvill doe wisely: and wherein wisely? |
A03694 | To lye is a base thing, but truth is noble: and who can endure, that it should be sayd to his face, Thou lyest, or, You lye? |
A03694 | What Master will allow a Seruant, who in some things shall serue him carefully,& in other some be carelesse of his commaundements? |
A03694 | What better to haue our fill of Quailes, and they to come out againe at our nosthrils? |
A03694 | What had Christ from that scornefull woman of Samaria toward her saluation? |
A03694 | What is the cause of this? |
A03694 | What lost Obed- Edom by making his house the Tabernacle of the Lords Arke? |
A03694 | What made Ephraim to repent? |
A03694 | What maruaile, when on the Sabbath, vvee drumme against God, hee, on the Sabbath also should thunder against vs? |
A03694 | What prophaneth Gods Sabbath ● so much, as the lust of couetousnesse, or lust of vvantonnesse? |
A03694 | What shall I say of our Corne- masters? |
A03694 | What vvill you say to the Midwiues and Rahabs lie? |
A03694 | When did iniquitie more multiply in Israel, then when there was no Ruler in it? |
A03694 | When vvee are filled with the Quailes of vvhat wee vvould haue, vvee may thinke our selues vvell: but how vvell? |
A03694 | Why then should hee not be serued with both, who made both? |
A03694 | Will a man that knowes not his estate, suspect it? |
A03694 | Will a thiefe steale before him that he knoweth shall be his iudge? |
A03694 | Wouldest thou haue defence from the Magistrate? |
A03694 | Wouldest thou liue with good Subiects? |
A03694 | Wouldest thou take Christ part? |
A03694 | Wouldest thou( then) be thought and accounted one that is desirous to leaue sinne? |
A03694 | Wouldest thou( then) blush to be a Thiefe? |
A03694 | Yet how was her faire cloathing with grasse soyled with dirt, in many flouded Medowes within the Land this yeere? |
A03694 | Yet what was that to the generall inconformitie that still beareth sway? |
A03694 | You vvould not( willingly) keepe a theefe in your House: and, are you not afraid to keepe in your cloth and seruice a common blasphemer? |
A03694 | You will say, what is this to the poore? |
A03694 | You will say; our brother may be in necessitie, and may we not lie a little to helpe him in his necessitie? |
A03694 | [ How many hired seruants of my Fathers haue bread enough?] |
A03694 | and God the Iudge, by Abraham, be ● ore tha ● ● Shall not the Iudge of the whole ● arth doe rig ● t? |
A03694 | and better to doe some good, then to professe all wickednes? |
A03694 | and better to seeme holie, then neyther to seeme, nor be? |
A03694 | and can a good childe be merry and glad to be contrary to his righteous father? |
A03694 | and can he, that suspects it not, fall into thoughts about it? |
A03694 | and can we from a wilde hedge of vnruly people fet the Graffes& Sciences of good Officers and good Seruants in a Familie? |
A03694 | and did not he that made the soule, for his seruice, make the body for his glory? |
A03694 | and did not the Maides helpe the matter? |
A03694 | and doe not proud speeches, countenances, goings, and apparrell, signifie a vaine& proud heart? |
A03694 | and doth not the number of them increase yet more and more, who cleaue to the Ieroboam of Rome, whom we may( therefore) truely call fallers away? |
A03694 | and eating with no remembrance of God; vsing Sauces to let downe excesse ● not to help the stomack, but to oppresse it? |
A03694 | and hee that seekes to take away his neighbours name and life by a lie, should( himselfe) loose his owne credit and life for a lie? |
A03694 | and honour our Master when vvee reuile his seruants? |
A03694 | and how will it riot, if he doe not set a guard of diligence about it, and keepe it vnder many tutor? |
A03694 | and if the eye be darke, how great is that darknes? |
A03694 | and in the planting of his Familie, will hee be carelesse what Seruants and Officers he doth bring into it? |
A03694 | and in these parts on the Sabbath? |
A03694 | and is it a sinne to make the King glad with such wickednes? |
A03694 | and is it not as necessarie for common persons, and all inferiours( that haue more time) to meditate in it, that they may learne to obay? |
A03694 | and leape at a crust, who feede so chargeably, so delicately, and so daily vpon the soft crumme? |

A03694 | and shall a Beggar, that liueth of the Almes- basket, be proud of the meate that is giuen him? |
A03694 | and shall vvee spend our time in the company of beggarly Christians that can not helpe vs to God, nor any vvay furnish vs for heauen? |
A03694 | and shall we account it so small a matter to lye for a commoditie, nay to face and lye for nothing? |
A03694 | and shall we not tremble to doe euill in his sight who shall iudge the world? |
A03694 | and should not this terrifie wretched and prodigious Swearers? |
A03694 | and teach Masters not to keepe a swearing seruant, as they would not keepe the plague of God in their house? |

A03694 | and vvhen we looke into the change of the Moone, and not to the change of our wayes? |
A03694 | and vvill our Master in heauen commend vs, or discharge vs, because vve haue done some things vvell, hauing offended and done vvickedly in many? |
A03694 | and vvill vve giue the bridle to all manner vvickednes, God looking on? |
A03694 | and what can we adde vnto it, that is not already in it? |
A03694 | and what spirit leadeth them, who haue such a deadnesse in them of spirit and spirituall life, that they call not vpon God? |
A03694 | and what to turne from GOD, but to turne vnto vanitie? |
A03694 | and who care not to choose the good, should light vpon the bad? |
A03694 | and who shall punish the abhominable ● wearer, if they sweare? |
A03694 | and who should pay the greatest rent, but hee that hath the largest demise? |
A03694 | and who will finde fault with him that shall say, This is naughtie fruit, and therefore the tree is naught that beares it? |
A03694 | and who, seeing streames of pride in the cloathes men weare, will not thinke that they flow from the well- head that boyleth in the heart? |
A03694 | and why doe men companie with drunkards, but because they bee affected as drunkards are, and loue as drunkards doe? |
A03694 | and will wee not be pleased where God is pleased? |
A03694 | and, O Christ what a man are you? |
A03694 | and, hee who hath good parentage, spoyle him that hath good graces? |
A03694 | and, if we loue the world best, vvhat vvill vve not take from God to giue to it? |
A03694 | and, to whom do they dedicate their Sabbaths? |
A03694 | and, vvhat is gotten ● vvhen these are gone? |
A03694 | and, vvho can better tell how to reforme the heart then hee that made it? |
A03694 | are such Gods delight? |
A03694 | are they called? |
A03694 | as if hee had said, dost thou know what thou wast, and what thou art? |
A03694 | behold vs; and shall we not care how he seeth vs occupyed? |
A03694 | but doe Children of fornication any thing that can please God? |
A03694 | but to make him to come to himselfe with this lost Sonne, and with him, to arise, to goe to his father? |
A03694 | but what peace( more cruell then any warre) is that which hath peace with Satan, and warre with God? |
A03694 | but, is it not pitty that a proper man should vndoe a profitable man? |
A03694 | doe they, or can they, in any thing helpe forward their second and new birth? |
A03694 | doe wee not seeke rich friends because vvee need them, and they can helpe vs? |
A03694 | for doe men gather Grapes of Thornes? |
A03694 | for if the head be sicke, can the heart be merry? |
A03694 | for seeing that neither Iudgement nor mercie can preuaile, what can wee looke for, but destruction vpon destruction? |
A03694 | for the Wheat of the Land, the Wheat of Heauen? |
A03694 | for( alas) how doth the Land mourne because of Oathes? |
A03694 | for, haue not I commanded? |
A03694 | giue a contrarie charge concerning good Men, and good Seruants, to make much of them? |
A03694 | had they not rather part vvith the person of Iacob, then with the portion of their Father Laban? |
A03694 | haue we not for a little perishing wealth sould the life of our Seruant, and the life of our owne bowels to the Diuell? |
A03694 | haue we not for this corrupt reward, with cruell hands, euen shed the bl ● ● d of our Seruant, and the bloud of our owne deare Childe? |
A03694 | he speaketh of the rebukes that fell vpon him, no doubt because himselfe was a rebuker: but whom rebuked he, and whose faults? |
A03694 | hee hath payd for both, and will he not be glorified in both? |
A03694 | him, that is, Christ his Sauiour, and the bloud of Christ, his saluation, for money? |
A03694 | how impure? |
A03694 | how much more for euery lying word? |
A03694 | if God be on your side, what matter who be against you? |
A03694 | if there were no hurt in seeing? |
A03694 | if they cast off Religion, who shall care for it? |
A03694 | in the vprightnesse of his heart: and where? |
A03694 | in what case are they who come to the Sacraments prophanely; or, but once in two or three yeeres? |
A03694 | is it not the Field, nay, price of bloud? |
A03694 | making them dayes, not of holinesse, but of their lusts? |
A03694 | must hee not be iustified? |
A03694 | must hee not haue Faith that shall doe so? |
A03694 | must rich men and landed men liue in a calling? |
A03694 | nay, is not simplicitie so much hated, that the name it selfe is had in reproach? |
A03694 | nay, vvouldest thou doe much for God? |
A03694 | nay, will he not throw out all that shall endanger his foundation? |
A03694 | nay, would wee liue with them? |
A03694 | or abide that they should liue with vs? |
A03694 | or are we malicious? |
A03694 | or cruelly hacke his flesh with a sword, because he hath in his power and keeping, that which will cure the sore of those desperate gashes? |
A03694 | or eating like beasts, that eate all the day, and some part of the night? |
A03694 | or liue vnquietly, who may liue in peace? |
A03694 | or reuerence Gods maiestie, and despise his image? |
A03694 | or say nothing when such oathes cry? |
A03694 | or should we not set them from the Trees of righteousnes in well gouerned houses? |
A03694 | or the Deuils day? |
A03694 | or the Deuils? |
A03694 | or then to stand or fall to him? |
A03694 | or to the Deuill? |
A03694 | or, any good mans house receiue such? |
A03694 | or, are they not desperate enemies to it? |
A03694 | or, can he not? |
A03694 | or, can they hope to be spared, and to prosper that so rebell against him? |
A03694 | or, can you be more moued for a litle perishing wealth, then iustly vexed for Gods dishonour? |
A03694 | or, how( rather) haue I wasted and powred forth the good houres of time to vaine pleasures, to idle talke, to much sleepe,& wantonnes? |
A03694 | or, is it a greater sinne to robbe you of your goods, then it is to robbe God of his glory? |
A03694 | or, is it our griefe that we are Gods delight? |
A03694 | or, is the Lord prouoked for these onely, to bring great necessitie vpon a Land? |
A03694 | or, may not I command? |
A03694 | or, performe the dueties of him that liueth the life of Nature, and of this world? |
A03694 | set God in place, and his great power before thee: or, though thou hast long put off, wouldst thou, at last, enter the way of grace? |
A03694 | shall that that delighteth him trouble vs? |
A03694 | shall they burne, world without end, in the tormenting fire of hell? |
A03694 | that a witty man should kill an honest man? |
A03694 | that is, what daintie and continuall eating? |
A03694 | then his direction is safe, and what hee commendeth to be wise, is wise: or, hath he all knowledge? |
A03694 | then how can we do better then to learne of him? |
A03694 | then take part with a Christian: or, vvouldest thou receiue Christ? |
A03694 | then with their Swine or Farmes? |
A03694 | then, it held him: for he said; What will yee giue mee, and I will deliuer him vnto you? |
A03694 | to God? |
A03694 | to make the markets to faile, and peoples hearts, with failing, to looke for no mercy, nor bowels of mercy from such obdurate couetousnesse? |
A03694 | to shew kindnes vnto them? |
A03694 | to wage them? |

A03694 | vvhat is it, but by care and diligence, to giue the bodily senses in the sacrifice of new life vnto him? |
A03694 | vvhose day keepe they? |
A03694 | vvhose seruants are they( then) vvho, if they be crossed( neuer so little) in their pleasures, will crosse God in his glory? |
A03694 | vvould a man, when his prouision is spent, goe vvhere is no market, and not vvhere hee may helpe himselfe with varietie of Markets? |
A03694 | was not he counted wise? |
A03694 | what did the Lord then? |
A03694 | when mens actions are worldly, doe we not say that they haue a worldly heart? |
A03694 | while they are at their sports, they will not haue to doe vvith God: or, would they dare to speake and worke such vncleannesse, and God so neare? |
A03694 | who instead of skirmishing with sin, make frayes with their brethren, and draw vpon their names with a lying tongue? |
A03694 | who iustifieth but God? |
A03694 | who, or what shall make you to forsake it? |
A03694 | will wee not take h ● ede how we heare? |
A03694 | without punishment, and recompence? |
A03694 | without terrour to the wicked, and honour to the good? |
A03694 | would wee suffer them? |
A03694 | wouldest thou( then) doe any thing for God? |
A03694 | yet what mercilesse worldling will not doe this villanie? |
A03694 | ● f Noah be drunken, who shall reprooue Cham? |
A39682 | ( 1) That either he will supply, or sanctifie your wants;( 2) That you shall have so much as God sees fit for you, and doth this trouble you? |
A39682 | ( 1) Who ever did so? |
A39682 | 1. why is their discourse so frothy and unprofitable when they meet? |
A39682 | 13. he desires a sign v. 17. and after that another, v. 36. and what was the end of all this? |
A39682 | 3. how o ● ten refreshed, warmed, and quickned by their company? |
A39682 | 31, 32. but shall I doe so? |
A39682 | 41. and will he not hear me? |
A39682 | 5. doth God take the Assyrian as a staffe in his hand to beat his people with? |
A39682 | 7. doth not shame cover your faces? |
A39682 | Am I willing to feel what they felt for sin? |
A39682 | And hast feared continually because of the oppressor, as if he were ready to devour, and where is the fury of the Oppressor? |
A39682 | And is it well done then to repine and droop because your father consu ● ts more the advantage of ▪ your souls, than the pleasing of your humours? |
A39682 | And is not this such? |
A39682 | And what is the true cause and reason of all this; but the neglecting of their hearts? |
A39682 | And why my Son wilt thou be ravished with a strange Woman, and embrace the bosome of a stranger? |
A39682 | Are not the least sinners there filled with the fulness of wrath? |
A39682 | Are you not sure of that? |
A39682 | Are you sure from Scripture grounds that a good man may ▪ not relapse again and again into the same sin? |
A39682 | Besides, is not my Conscience as a thousand witnesses? |
A39682 | But I may dye for want? |
A39682 | But grant it be so indeed as you affirm, must it needs follow, that the root of the matter is not in you? |
A39682 | But is the Majesty of Heaven a little one too? |
A39682 | But what matter is it, w ● en thy soul is in Heaven; whether it were let out at thy mouth, or at thy throat? |
A39682 | But what say you to pardon of sin? |
A39682 | Can I look Christ in the face at the Day of Iudgment, if I desert him now? |
A39682 | Can I so easily cast off the socie ● y and company of the Saints, and give the right hand of fellowship to the wicked? |
A39682 | Dare I draw the same conclusion upon all others that have been as much, yea more afflicted then my self? |
A39682 | Dare I violate my conscience to save my flesh? |
A39682 | Did God record these examples for my imi ● ation, or for my warning? |
A39682 | Did Iesus Christ serve me so? |
A39682 | Do I owe no reverence to my self? |
A39682 | Do not you know the Sun still keeps on his course in the Heavens even in full and closs weather, when you can not see it? |
A39682 | Do the enemies carry away the good figgs, even the best among the people into captivity? |
A39682 | Do their enemies want malice, power, or opportunity? |
A39682 | Do you find the marks of an absolute total and final desertion upon your own Spirits, that you are so apt to conclude yours to be such? |
A39682 | Do you find your heart inclined to forsake God? |
A39682 | Do you well to question his care and love upon every new exigence; say, have you not been ashamed of this formerly? |
A39682 | Doe the consolations of God seem small to you? |
A39682 | Dost thou not make conscience of private duties, and set thy self as before the Lord in them? |
A39682 | Doth every big word of proud dust and ashes make thee afraid? |
A39682 | Doth he feed and clothe his enemies, and will he forget his children? |
A39682 | Doth he not regard what evil befals them? |
A39682 | Doth he not see my waies and count all my steps? |
A39682 | Doth he not see my waies, and count all my steps? |
A39682 | Doth it become the children of such a Father to distrust his all- sufficiency, or repine against any of his Dispensations? |
A39682 | Doth religion any way countenance or patronize the sinful practises of its professors, or doth it not rather impartially and severely condemn them? |
A39682 | Doth thy heart yet swell? |
A39682 | Fear not their fear: But how shall we help it? |
A39682 | Hath the Lord forsaken his Churches? |
A39682 | Hath ● in any such delight as this? |
A39682 | Have I been a wilderness unto you,& c. or as Christ said to the Disciples, Since I was with you, lacked ye any thing? |
A39682 | Have I seriously considered the terrible Scripture Comminations against back- sliders? |
A39682 | Have not many Saints stumbled upon this stone before thee? |
A39682 | Have you forgot what necessities and straits even a David hath suffered? |
A39682 | He answered, Did I ever tell you that I was immortel? |
A39682 | He shutteth out my prayer: and how doth this work? |
A39682 | He that seriously puts such questions as these: what shall I do to be saved? |
A39682 | He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? |
A39682 | Here were a company of formal hypocrits, as is evident by that expression[ as my people] like them, but not of them: and what made them so? |
A39682 | How a Christian may keep his heart from distrusting God, or repining against him when outward wants are eith ● r felt, or feared? |
A39682 | How a Christian may keep his heart from pride and carnal security under the smiles of providence, and confluence of Creature comforts? |
A39682 | How a Christian may keep his heart from revengful motions, under the greatest injuries and abuses from men? |
A39682 | How a Christian under great afflictions may keep his heart from repining or desponding under the hand of God? |
A39682 | How a Christian when strongly sollicited by the Devil to sin, may keep his heart from yielding to the temptation? |
A39682 | How can I part with such lovely companions as these have been? |
A39682 | How fruitful sweet and comfortable would all Ordinances and Duties be to us if our hearts were better kept? |
A39682 | How long? |
A39682 | How long? |
A39682 | How many times have they looked into the Word, and then into their hearts? |
A39682 | How much more will the Angels come post from Heaven to receive and transfer the praying Soul it self? |
A39682 | How often have I fasted and prayed with them? |
A39682 | How severely hath the Great God declared his wrath from Heaven against heart- wickedness? |
A39682 | How the heart may be kept from relapsing under the greatest sufferings for religion? |
A39682 | How the heart may be kept meek and patient under great crosses and provocations? |
A39682 | I desire to be dissolved and to be with Christ: Did the Soul and body dye together as Beryllus taught? |
A39682 | I would never endure to see it exposed to such contempt will proud dust and ashes venture death, yea Hell, rather then a blot upon their name? |
A39682 | I, even I am ● e that comforteth you, who art thou that thou shouldest be afraid of a man that shall dye? |
A39682 | If God be a God of so much mercy, how can I abuse so good a G ● d? |
A39682 | If God be for us, who can be against us? |
A39682 | If God be not with his people, how is it they are not swallowed up quick? |
A39682 | If great troubles and afflictions be marks of Gods hatred, why should not impunity and constant prosperity be tokens of his love? |
A39682 | If it be bad now, it might have been worse; hath God denyed thee the comforts of this life? |
A39682 | If such a liberty were indulged to us, not to be dissolved till we dissolve our selves; when should we say with S. Paul, I desire to be dissolved? |
A39682 | If the presence of a grave man will compose us to seriousness, how much more the presence of an holy God? |
A39682 | If thou art of such a fearful and timerous spirit, how is it that thou fearest not to disobey the flat commands of J ● sus Christ? |
A39682 | If when faith fails, Sight should not immediately succeed, what should become of the unbodied Soul? |
A39682 | Iob was the Mirrour of patience, yet how was his heart discomposed by trouble? |
A39682 | Ionah was a good man, and yet how pettish was his heart under affliction? |
A39682 | Is it for the honour of Religion,( think you) that Christians should be as timerous as Hares, to start at every sound? |
A39682 | Is it indeed for the Saints advantage to be weaned from the loves and delights of ensnaring worldly vanities? |
A39682 | Is it not too shameful an undervaluing of the great God? |
A39682 | Is it pleasant to feel the wounds and throbs of Conscience? |
A39682 | Is not eternal life worth the suffering of a moments pain? |
A39682 | Is not the publick interest of Christ and religion infinitely more, then any private interest of my own? |
A39682 | Is not your repentance and care renued, as often as your guilt is renued? |
A39682 | Is there any content inventing a passion? |
A39682 | Is there any little Hell to torment little sinners in? |
A39682 | Is this a due requital of his love, who is pleased so much to concern himself in your welfare? |
A39682 | Look over these ten special benefits, weigh them in a just ballance; are they small matters? |
A39682 | Lord, when shall this blessed day come? |
A39682 | May you not be mistaken about the decay of grace, and fading of your affections? |
A39682 | My father is about a design of love upon my soul, and do I well to be angry with him? |
A39682 | My tumultuous thoughts and passions where is your Commission? |
A39682 | Next, I shall give you some rational account, why Christians should make this the great business of their lives, to keep their hearts? |
A39682 | Nothing will star ● le an upright hear ● more than this: What, shall I give way to a customary wandring of heart from God? |
A39682 | Now if mercies work contrarily upon my heart, what cause have I to be afraid that they come not to me in love? |
A39682 | O Father of the fatherless and judge of widows, nutri, serva, doce, nourish, keep, and teach them: or art thou troubled for their Souls? |
A39682 | O Ierusalem, wash thine heart from wickedness that thou maist be saved, how long shall vain thoughts lodge within thee? |
A39682 | O how little of their time is spent in the closet, in searching, humbling, and quickning their hearts? |
A39682 | O how many hours have some Professors spent in hearing, praying, reading, conferring? |
A39682 | O how will men venture life and limb for a fading crown swim through seas of blood to a throne? |
A39682 | O my God? |
A39682 | O my Soul, answer seriously; wouldst thou be willing to reap the fruit of vanity, in the world to come? |
A39682 | O naughty heart, vain heart, couldst thou not abide by the fountain of delights? |
A39682 | O what a change will a few moments make upon your condition? |
A39682 | O what discords, jarrings, censurings, are here? |
A39682 | O what mischief may the discoveries of your ● ears b ● fore them do? |
A39682 | O what would thousands now in Hell, give to change conditions with me? |
A39682 | O when will you beware of Sathans devices? |
A39682 | O why doe you mischief your own Souls by other mens examples? |
A39682 | Oh how many have been Coached to Hell in the Chariots of earthly pleasures, whilest others have been whipt to Heaven by the rod of affliction? |
A39682 | Oh what madness is this? |
A39682 | Or as dying Milius, when one asked him whether he were willing to dye? |
A39682 | Or is he a wicked man? |
A39682 | Or may a man safely rely upon its testimony after so many discoveries of the fallibility of it? |
A39682 | Prayer is the best out- let to fear; where is the Christian that can not set his probatum est to this direction? |
A39682 | Professors, would you recover your credit? |
A39682 | Seeing thou our God hast given us such a deliverance as this, should we again break thy Commandments? |
A39682 | Seriously propound this question to thy own heart, have I got any good by the wrong and injuries received, or have I not? |
A39682 | Shall I lift up proud dust above the great God? |
A39682 | Shall I run upon a certain sin, to shun a probable danger? |
A39682 | Shall I take so glorious an attribute as the mercy of God is, and abuse it unto sin? |
A39682 | Shew you the visions of darkness? |
A39682 | Should he leave you but a few dayes to the buffe ● ing of Satan and his blasphemous injections? |
A39682 | Should such a man as I flee? |
A39682 | Sion said the Lord hath forsaken me, my God hath forgotten me: was it so indeed? |
A39682 | So let him curse ▪ because the Lord hath said unto him, curse David; Who shall then say, wherefore hast thou done so? |
A39682 | State viri, quae causa viae? |
A39682 | Still it hath been preserved from, supported under, or delivered out of all its troubles: and is it not as dear to God as ever? |
A39682 | Suppose your husband or child had lost all at Sea, and should come to you in raggs; could you deny the relation? |
A39682 | T is the pride, passion, and earthliness of our hearts that hath spoiled Christian fellowship: whence is it? |
A39682 | The Lord asked him, who was his harbinger? |
A39682 | The Lord is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear? |
A39682 | The assured Christian may smile with contempt upon all his enemies, and say, is this the worst that you can do? |
A39682 | The fourth Argument is drawn from the smalness of the sin;''T is but a little one, a small matter, a trifle; who would stand upon such niceties? |
A39682 | The less the sin, the less the inducement to commit it: What, shall I break with God for a trifle? |
A39682 | The third Argument by which Satan tempteth to sin, is taken from the gain and profit arising out of it: Why so nice and scrupulous? |
A39682 | Then said I, I am cast out of thy sight, and may not you be mistaken in this mat ● er as well as they? |
A39682 | Think you the Lord cares not to break his childrens hearts, and his own promise too? |
A39682 | This evil is of the Lord, why should I wait for him any longer? |
A39682 | This very consideration quieted Iob, Eli, David,& Hezekiah, that the Lord did it, was enough to them: and why should it not be so to us? |
A39682 | Thou tellest me Satan that sin is pleasant; be it so: but are the gripes of Conscience, and the flames of Hell so too? |
A39682 | True, but though it fall not under his approving? |
A39682 | Upon this account many an upright heart hath been laid low before God: O What an heart have I? |
A39682 | Were it not better you sh ● uld dye, than that the World should be prejudiced against Christ by your example? |
A39682 | What comfort is there in life, liberty, or friends, when peace is taken away from the inner man? |
A39682 | What if they be not so quick and ravishing as at first? |
A39682 | What loathness to depart? |
A39682 | What reproach and dishonour shall I pour upon Christ and religion by deserting him at such a time as this? |
A39682 | What say ye Sirs? |
A39682 | What think ye Sirs? |
A39682 | What though God do not distinguish in his outward Dispensations betwixt his own and others? |
A39682 | What''s the reason your hearts are so shufling, especially in secret duties? |
A39682 | What? |
A39682 | When God had confirmed the Promise to him, to build him an house, and not reject him as he did Saul, he goes in before the Lord and saith, who am I? |
A39682 | When one of the Martyrs was asked, why he was so merry at his death? |
A39682 | When thy repining heart puts the question, was there ever any sorrow like unto mine? |
A39682 | Where do I find a promise of mercy to presumptuous sinners? |
A39682 | Who wi ● ● harm you, if you be followers of that which is good? |
A39682 | Who would not be willing to dye for a full sight and enjoyment of God? |
A39682 | Why art thou unwilling to dye? |
A39682 | Why did the mountains smoke under him? |
A39682 | Why doth the living man complain? |
A39682 | Why should you be such enemies to your own peace? |
A39682 | Why shouldest thou be afraid? |
A39682 | Will you then grieve so much for these circumstantials, as to forget your substantials? |
A39682 | Wouldst thou have thy heart to rest no where but in the bosom of God? |
A39682 | Yea the oftner you sin the more you are troubled? |
A39682 | Yea, how are the Consciences of fallen professors plunged and even overwhelmed in the deeps of trouble? |
A39682 | You say, your hearts are dead; and doe you wonder they are so as long as you keep them not with the fountain of life? |

A64249 | So if an humble soul( suppose the Jaylor) shall come to the Minister as Paul or Silas; Sirs, what may I doe to be saved? |
A64249 | Suppose thou haddest power above Joshua the type, art thou stronger than the true Joshua? |
A64249 | That which goeth into the mouth, defileth not the man? |
A64249 | The Hebrew could say, who made thee a judge? |
A64249 | The Jew purged out all leaven, and spared none, not a morsell or a crum: And shall not a Christian count every sin a pollution, and hatefull to God? |
A64249 | The Lords liberality in giving thee( not a sixth day, but) six whole dayes wherein to gather earthly Manna; and wilt thou encroach his day too? |
A64249 | The spawne of a Serpent are Serpents; and what are we but the spawn, the seed of Adam? |
A64249 | The theefe on the Crosse asking Christ to remember him in his kingdome, Augustine askes him: What Royalty doest thou see? |
A64249 | Their glory was eclipsed in the captivity, and where be now any of Davids race according to the flesh? |
A64249 | Then how dares a man that stands to judge between the Lord and his people, scandalize or scorn such as endeavour most to be clean? |
A64249 | This is to be a Christian, to be anointed as Christ was? |
A64249 | Thou art no drunkard, or great swearer, but art thou a companion of such not reproving them? |
A64249 | Thy sinne repented of held Christ, an innocent, out of heaven till he died for it: but where shall ungodly and impenitent sinners appear? |
A64249 | To move us to cease from our sinnes; for who would goe on to provoke so good a God, that still prevents us with love and mercy? |
A64249 | To what end name I these follies, but by Popish and wicked superstition to condemn our heavinesse in Gods Commandements? |
A64249 | Unbeleefe is full of repinings and murmurings: Oh how shall I be provided for, in this or that? |
A64249 | V. Is Christ this Pillar of Cloud and Fire? |
A64249 | Was not Festus a wise man, and a prudent Governour? |
A64249 | Was the Sonne lesse faithfull? |
A64249 | Was there any diference between this and other Clouds? |
A64249 | Was there any sence or reason to be conceived in all this counsel and ordinance of God in healing thus his people? |
A64249 | Was there now so great faith in Israel? |
A64249 | Was there so much power in the bloud of the type; and not much more in the bloud of the truth? |
A64249 | What a fearfull thing is it to come as most men do, not considering the Lords body? |
A64249 | What a marvellous thing is it, that a Pillar of fire should sit upon the Tabernacle, and not burn it? |
A64249 | What a strange thing, that a Pillar of fire must cool the Israelites, and save them from fire? |
A64249 | What authority can an Oracle have in a drunken mans mouth, which can not but use to speake leud things? |
A64249 | What can a Serpent cast out but poyson? |
A64249 | What do they else than cast away the kernell to gnaw upon the shell, or as a mad man, who casts away the graine, and choakes himselfe with the husks? |
A64249 | What easier faith than to believe as the Church doth, no matter what; without any knowledge or faith of their own? |
A64249 | What garments must we put on? |
A64249 | What had it been better, if all the congregation had taken part with a Leper, if the Priest pronounced him uncleane? |
A64249 | What had it been to have passed the oppressours of Egypt, and to have been swallowed up of the sea? |
A64249 | What hope hath he to be taught by the Spirit, that must give lawes to the Spirit of God? |
A64249 | What if a man applaud and commend thee for an honest man, a good neighbour, a just man, if He judge thee a Leper? |
A64249 | What if he had never so much power in teaching, if he were impotent in defending? |
A64249 | What is gold, silver, silk, pearles; to righteousnesse, holynesse, life, immortality and glory? |
A64249 | What kind of Cloud was this? |
A64249 | What may I doe thus to receive the whole Lamb? |
A64249 | What meanes? |
A64249 | What means may we use for the attaining of water out of this Rock? |
A64249 | What need we be at any paines to read, study, and meditate in the book of God night and day, as the Saints have done? |
A64249 | What reason but they may serve a Customer upon the Sabbath, so they come to Church? |
A64249 | What reason hath he to spare us? |
A64249 | What reason he should be so strict, lesse reason they should be as strict as he? |
A64249 | What seemed more diametrally or directly contrary to this promise, yet hindered not but furthered it? |
A64249 | What was the use of this cloudy Pillar? |
A64249 | What was this Preacher to ours? |
A64249 | What were their meanes to ours? |
A64249 | What will this babler fay? |
A64249 | What wise man would drink a draught of poyson for the sweet taste of it? |
A64249 | What wiser men in the world than the Philosophers and Stoicks of Athens? |
A64249 | When did he revile, rebuke, hate? |
A64249 | When do we receive whole Christ? |
A64249 | When heardest thou this first- born brother to swear or lye? |
A64249 | When the Israelite comes to Moses and asketh, Oh what shall I doe to be saved from death, being so deadly stung? |
A64249 | When was he ashamed of thy cause, of thy Crosse, yea or curse? |
A64249 | Whence are so many tumults? |
A64249 | Whence issue these but from a wicked and impenitent heart? |
A64249 | Where be they that will see no Church, if they see any uncleannesse? |
A64249 | Where is our free will to good? |
A64249 | Wherein he said, My God, why hast thou forsaken me? |
A64249 | Wherein was this cloudy pillar a type of Christ? |
A64249 | While he sits at the wine or strong drink, how can he sit at his study? |
A64249 | Who can say, my faith is strong enough, which is ever imperfect in the best, who know but in part, and believe but in part? |
A64249 | Who can stand before envy? |
A64249 | Who is it that is not a Leper from the wombe? |
A64249 | Who would not whore, swear, prophane the Sabbath, resist Magistracy, riot,& c. if for a little money he may have licence? |
A64249 | Who would play with a deadly Serpent, or make a jest of his own death? |
A64249 | Who would put Aqua vitae, or Balm water, in a fusty and stinking bottle? |
A64249 | Why Serpents? |
A64249 | Why are we unthankfull? |
A64249 | Why called fiery Serpents? |
A64249 | Why doe we stand in our own light, if the truth of the Deitie hath in this our age attained to maturity? |
A64249 | Why doth the Lord thus? |
A64249 | Why fiery? |
A64249 | Why stinging Serpents? |
A64249 | Why stinging? |
A64249 | Why? |
A64249 | Would a man know whether he have received of this spirit for his office? |
A64249 | Would a man spread a table for dogs or swine? |
A64249 | Would he be like us in every thing, even in our evils, sinne onely excepted? |
A64249 | Would it not go to his heart to see him dismembred? |
A64249 | Wouldest thou have God answer thee? |
A64249 | Yea, his own words might seem to imply a sundering, when he saith; Why hast thou for saken me? |
A64249 | and consequently what a prop and stay of our faith? |
A64249 | and how much more should Christians be to avoid the morall? |
A64249 | get ye hence; what have ye to do here? |
A64249 | or cast darts and fire- brands about him to burn himself and others, and say, Am I not in sport? |
A64249 | or drink up the poyson of a Serpent in merriment? |
A64249 | or what a short ● et- wand is natural reason to measure divine things by? |
A64249 | should not we be like him in grace, to be like him in glory? |
A64249 | to make it a member of an harlot? |
A64249 | what a goade and spurre to drive us to Jesus Christ, in whose name alone we can be saved? |
A64249 | what a pregnant testimony and vaticinie is it alone of the death and passion of Jesus Christ, as also of the vertue and merit of the same? |
A64249 | what dost thou but foam out thy own shame? |
A64249 | what if thou seest armies of enemies, of discouragements? |
A64249 | what may I doe to be rid of this Serpent, and of that, of this sin and of that? |
A64249 | what may I doe to be saved? |
A64249 | what questions move they to him? |
A64249 | where should we lie if our Lord did not lift us up, and beare us up? |
A64249 | whilst he slept so fast in the night, as scarce an Angel could waken him, and brought him through the sleepie watch? |
A25829 | ( which Psalm is a Prophecy of Christ) he cryes out bitter 〈 ◊ 〉 My God, my God; why hast thou forsaken me? |
A25829 | 18. Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? |
A25829 | 22. speaking of the Hypocrites ● Why, they had many prayers, and did many good works, are they forgetters of God? |
A25829 | 3, 4. Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? |
A25829 | 35. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? |
A25829 | 7. the latter end, O wretched man that I am, who shall deliver me from the body of this death? |
A25829 | 7. ve? |
A25829 | 7. what was it that kept him from Christ? |
A25829 | 7. you have him speaking of the righteous Judge, and saith he, Shall not God avenge his own Elect, which cry day and night unto him? |
A25829 | Again thirdly, What cause have you to admire at the goodness of the Lord thus to you that are his children? |
A25829 | Again, examine what it was that fastned your hope, Was it the word of the Lord that made you to hope, the sure word of promise? |
A25829 | Againe, this is another temptation; why doth God chuse this man and not that man? |
A25829 | Ah, but may not a man cry for mercy, and yet goe without it? |
A25829 | Alas, if a man had a thousand times more then he hath, what is all he hath without the love of God? |
A25829 | Alas, it is in vain to make complaints to such, what doth it avail? |
A25829 | Am I in Gods stead? |
A25829 | And Moses said unto God, who am I, that I should go unto Pharaoh, and that I should bring forth the children of Israel out of Aegypt? |
A25829 | And dost thou open thine eyes upon such a one? |
A25829 | And doth not Christ say, the Tares and the wheat must grow together? |
A25829 | And doth not God take more care for poor lost souls? |
A25829 | And for your incouragement, does Christ seem to be hid from you as from this woman of C ● naan? |
A25829 | And further, to silence this temptation; why? |
A25829 | And hath he not held forth his promises to thee? |
A25829 | And he said, if the Lord do not help thee, whence shall I help thee? |
A25829 | And how destructive is it to the faith of Gods people, and all the comforts of Gods people? |
A25829 | And if the Lord hath brought you in that are vveak ones, women; is there ever a vveak vvoman that the Lord hath made choice of? |
A25829 | And is it not a more acceptable work to bring home lost souls? |
A25829 | And it engages you to do the work of Christ? |
A25829 | And let me say further, that this is a great dishonour to God: Oh what a 〈 ◊ 〉 is it? |
A25829 | And oh what great ingratitude? |
A25829 | And so doe you want healing? |
A25829 | And so for Professors, when men shall look upon those of corrupt conversation, and they shall say, Who is their Master? |
A25829 | And so when they are brought forth; what great pains are parents willing to take for their children? |
A25829 | And so would you have peace? |
A25829 | And that a poor lost Oxe be brought home to his Owner? |
A25829 | And therefore let me speak to those that have received this grace: Hath the Lord found out your souls? |
A25829 | And therefore to reflect a little upon this; doth God make this to be the condition of any of you? |
A25829 | And to draw to a conclusion, let us labour to help forward Gods design: Doth God make choice of such? |
A25829 | And were there not many wicked men in the Church of Corinth? |
A25829 | And what am I worse then others? |
A25829 | And what care do they take to make provision for their children, when they are dead and gone? |
A25829 | And what is my sin more then others? |
A25829 | And what pains did Christ take to bring us home? |
A25829 | And what sayes the King to her? |
A25829 | And whence is this? |
A25829 | And wherefore was it that Christ gave himself to die? |
A25829 | And who shall stand in his holy place? |
A25829 | And why art thou disquieted within me? |
A25829 | And why should God take me out from all others to make me an example to all others? |
A25829 | And you know what Judas did meet withall, when he went to the Pharisees, and said, I have sinned in betraying the innocent bloud: What is that to us? |
A25829 | Arguments of weaknesse: Young Rehoboam, his young Counsel, what rash judgement did they give to their King, that cost him his life? |
A25829 | But can our afflictions be worse then Jobs were? |
A25829 | But fourthly, We have further to consider, what is the end of Election; wherefore did God chuse certain persons? |
A25829 | But how shall I know that the Lord hath heard my prayer? |
A25829 | But how shall a young man be delivered from his folly? |
A25829 | But in the second place, Who are Dogs? |
A25829 | But it may be queried, Why she calls him the son of David? |
A25829 | But it may be you will say unto me, how shall we obtain this hope? |
A25829 | But know that the Lord hath set apart him that is godly for himself? |
A25829 | But none saith, where is God n ● ● ● maker? |
A25829 | But take heed that we stay not there, and rob God of his grace, but even then look up to the Lord, and say, Who is like unto thee? |
A25829 | But thirdly, What is the childrens bread that must not be given to dogs? |
A25829 | But what shall I do when tempted about my unworthiness? |
A25829 | But whe ● ● er came Christ? |
A25829 | But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly after this sort? |
A25829 | But who is like unto thy Son Christ for worthiness and righteousness? |
A25829 | But you will say then, How shall men come to believe in the promises, if they must not be applyed to wicked men? |
A25829 | But you will say to me, what is there in God that we should remember him? |
A25829 | But you will say to me, when may Parents be said to love their children aright? |
A25829 | But you will say what is Satans design, and what doth Satan intend? |
A25829 | But you will say, How can this be known? |
A25829 | But you will say, How shall we do that? |
A25829 | But you will say, How shall we know when God presents unworthiness, and when Sathan presents unworthiness? |
A25829 | But you will say, It is a great Duty, and much depends upon it, how shall I be helped to remember God aright? |
A25829 | But you will say, Was it not an evil to give way to natural affection? |
A25829 | But you will say, What can it hurt me? |
A25829 | But you will say, What need we cry thus earnestly to the Lord? |
A25829 | But you will say, What? |
A25829 | But you will say, Wherefore doth the Lord suffer his people to be tempted thus about their unworthiness? |
A25829 | But you will say, Whether was this affection natural or spiritual grace? |
A25829 | But you will say, Why, then God makes choice of sinners, and how can that be? |
A25829 | But you will say, is this enough for a ● an to believe that Christ is Lord, and God, equall with the Father? |
A25829 | But you will say, what are the Wills of God contrary one to another? |
A25829 | But you will say, what is it that we should cry for to the Lord at such a time? |
A25829 | But you will say, wherefore doth the Lord thus try his people? |
A25829 | By what means may a young man be cleansed? |
A25829 | Can I give thee children? |
A25829 | Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? |
A25829 | Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? |
A25829 | Can it be greater then Jonahs? |
A25829 | Christ knew the worth of a soul, the preciousness of a soul: what would it advanvantage a man to gain the whole world and loose his soul? |
A25829 | Did I say that I Remembred God and was troubled? |
A25829 | Did the Lord cause you to see that it was not possible that you should create hope in your selves, til Christ come& beget hope in you? |
A25829 | Did you see that it was out of the hand of Christ, and that it was begotten in you by the mighty power of God? |
A25829 | Do ye not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up? |
A25829 | Doe you desire any thing? |
A25829 | Does not the De ● il make a confession that Christ is the Son of the li ● ing God? |
A25829 | Dost thou love me? |
A25829 | Dost thou love me? |
A25829 | Doth Godtake care for Sheep? |
A25829 | First then, Let us enquire who they are that are called children, who are the children that have right to the bread? |
A25829 | First, It is a great sin; for what do we then, but set up the creature in the room of Christ? |
A25829 | First, What cause have we to be ashamed that we have come so far short of this Duty in the time of affliction or temptation? |
A25829 | For if the Word be not the rule, but a strong impulse of Spirit, what impulses may not a man have? |
A25829 | Forget God? |
A25829 | Fourthly and Lastly, What an engagement doth lye upon all in Christ''s house to be holy? |
A25829 | Fourthly, doth the Lord enable thee and make thee willing to wait upon him? |
A25829 | Hath Jesus Christ found you out in your wandrings, and through mercy brought you home to God? |
A25829 | Hath he brought home any poor soul to believe in Christ, and to give up it self fully and for ever to Christ? |
A25829 | Hath he no Father? |
A25829 | Hath he not been working upon thy heart, to overcome thy heart? |
A25829 | Have not we been distrusting, murmuring, repining, entertaining hard thoughts of God, speaking hard words against God? |
A25829 | Have we been exercising trust and affiance in the name of the Lord? |
A25829 | Have we been pouring forth our souls to God in afflicted conditions, and tempted conditions? |
A25829 | Have we been putting forth acts of holy fear and reverence? |
A25829 | Have we been putting forth acts of love towards God? |
A25829 | Have we fallen down and worshipped with the worship of the Spirit? |
A25829 | Have we made it our work to cry the more earnestly being in an Agony, as Christ did? |
A25829 | Have we not charged God foolishly, and spoken unadvisedly with our lips? |
A25829 | Have we not neglected our duty, and said, what profit is there if I pray unto the Almighty? |
A25829 | Have we not thought that we have had to excuse from worship, when the afflicting hand of God hath been upon us? |
A25829 | Have we spoken well of God at that time? |
A25829 | He stands up to challenge all the world, and the powers of darknesse, who dare lay any thing to the charge of Gods Elect? |
A25829 | He was so low in his own apprehension as was possible for him to be; in the belly of hell: And what did he do? |
A25829 | Hearken my beloved brethren, hath not God chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith, and heires of the Kingdom? |
A25829 | How did David long and thirst after it? |
A25829 | How did they justifie the Lord, when the Lord spake hard things, and stretched out his hand in a way of sore affliction? |
A25829 | How do the current of their thoughts run out to vanity? |
A25829 | How do vain thoughts and sinful imaginations croud in continually? |
A25829 | How doth this testifie the willingness of Christ to relieve his poor creatures? |
A25829 | How earnestly doth David beseech the Lord that he would not be silent to his prayer? |
A25829 | How far do we come short of this our duty? |
A25829 | How few of the precious thoughts of the heart are spent upon God? |
A25829 | How little delight in the presence of God? |
A25829 | How little do we prize Communion with God? |
A25829 | How little do we seek after the Image of God, and conformity to Christ? |
A25829 | How long doe they hang upon their mothers breasts before they can shift for themselves? |
A25829 | How long will ye love vanity, and seek after leasing? |
A25829 | How long will ye turn my glory into shame? |
A25829 | How many are the priviledges that they enjoy that are in Christ''s House? |
A25829 | How many are there that doe confess Christ to be true Man? |
A25829 | How many crooked thoughts? |
A25829 | How many fruitless, unprofitable, sinful thoughts? |
A25829 | How many gracious tenders and invitations are there in the Word of God for poor souls to flee unto? |
A25829 | How many in their youth, and how many past youth, that have not yet remembred God, that have all their dayes forgotten the Holy One of Israel? |
A25829 | How many, how dear, how precious are the thoughts of God to his people? |
A25829 | How much held forth of the sufferings of Christ, and the benefits of the suffering of Christ? |
A25829 | How often will they look up? |
A25829 | How shall they come to have faith in the promise? |
A25829 | How shall we know when it is duty to look upon unworthiness, and when it is sin to look upon unworthiness? |
A25829 | How will every one strive to get their children into great mens houses? |
A25829 | I answer, Though we may not make such a choice, God may make such a choice; why? |
A25829 | I fear that the love of God dwelleth not in me; How can it be that God should set his love upon such a one? |
A25829 | I know what is urged, Did not Judas receive the Supper? |
A25829 | I pray consider how it is with our selves, and what it is that moves us; when a poor man comes, what is it that moves us? |
A25829 | I see it is exceeding useful, and of absolute necessity, how shall we come by it? |
A25829 | If she press''d in to Christ when she had no invitation, O what an ingagement lies upon us in the day of grace to come to Christ? |
A25829 | If thou be better then others, whence was it? |
A25829 | Is his mercy clean gone for ever? |
A25829 | Is it possible that the Lord should humble himself to take notice of me? |
A25829 | Is not this worthy of Thankfulness? |
A25829 | Is there unrighteousness with God? |
A25829 | Is there unrighteousness with God? |
A25829 | It is not the word of him that is the true and faithful witness? |
A25829 | It seems so, that God should deal thus unequally with persons that are equal, that are in the same condition, Is this righteous? |
A25829 | Judas betrayed Christ, Peter denyed Christ and is forsworne; now that God should chuse one man and not another; why this man and not that man? |
A25829 | Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? |
A25829 | Let us come hither for pardon of sin: Doe you want pardon of sin? |
A25829 | Look upon the woman of Canaan, how did she cry to Christ for her daughter? |
A25829 | Lord,( saith he) Is it possible that thou shouldest humble thy self so far to look down upon such a one? |
A25829 | Men are found negligent in this great business, because they think it is too high for them; who can ascend into heaven? |
A25829 | Nay but, O man, Who art thou that replyest against God? |
A25829 | Nay further, How little is God pursued after? |
A25829 | Nay further, How many vain thoughts lodge in the hearts of God''s own people? |
A25829 | Nay, Instead of worshipping, Have not we been dishonouring God in the time of affliction and temptation? |
A25829 | Nay, how hard is it for parents to part with their children when God takes away their children by death? |
A25829 | None of these worthy of Thankfulness? |
A25829 | Now in the third place let us consider the behaviour of this woman under these tryals, how did her faith bear up under these tryals? |
A25829 | Now that God should spend his precious thoughts upon us, and we spend so few of our choice thoughts upon God, O what an ill requital is this? |
A25829 | Now to those that are lost and know it not, let me say unto you? |
A25829 | O Lord how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear? |
A25829 | O how much deadness in heart and affection in the things of God? |
A25829 | O how much sorrow do poor women meet withall in bearing and bringing forth children? |
A25829 | O how troublesome is the Sea then? |
A25829 | O what a raging enemy is the Sea, when the four winds strive upon it? |
A25829 | O what hath God done for many of his people? |
A25829 | O what hath God done that he might remember us? |
A25829 | Oh how doth a Merchant- venturer long for the return of his commodity from a far Country? |
A25829 | Oh my heart, wait I say, wait on the Lord: Hast thou through grace so spoken to thine own heart? |
A25829 | Oh what cause have old men to remember God? |
A25829 | Oh what swe ● ● musick was it? |
A25829 | Oh, look upon Abraham, and let him be your pattern; how did he cry to the Lord in the behalf of Ishmael? |
A25829 | Old men, I beseech you to remember your Creator, there is hope; wherefore hath God spared you so long? |
A25829 | One thing have I desired of the Lord, and but one thing; What is that? |
A25829 | One thing more, and so I conclude: and that is a word to children; is it so, that there is so much love in the hearts of Parents to their children? |
A25829 | Or no Master? |
A25829 | Or, What can it hurt another, though there be many wicked men in a Communion of Saints, that come and partake of the Lord''s Supper? |

A25829 | Secondly Consider, That all that God speaks and doth is God; and if so, Why should we not justifie the Lord? |
A25829 | Secondly, In a word, What matter of comfort is here to you that are the Lord''s people? |
A25829 | Secondly, No eye hath seen what is done in Heaven, and if eye hath not seen it, how shall I attaine to the knowledge of it? |

A25829 | There were many waves that did rise very high in his own spirit, and what doth he do? |
A25829 | Think upon the gracious Nature of God, think upon the glorious Majesty of God, think upon all the Attributes of God, are they not worthy of praise? |
A25829 | Thirdly, And in the third and last place: How may are there that many confess both these? |
A25829 | Thirdly, Are poor creatures by nature in a lost estate and condition? |

A25829 | Thirdly, What is the Object of this Hope? |
A25829 | Thirdly, doth the Lord carry on thy soul to continue in thy prayer? |
A25829 | Those supports that thou hast met withall under affliction, have not everlasting Arms been under thee? |

A25829 | When I lie down, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone? |
A25829 | When you see a childe rude and deboist, you will say, who is his father? |

A25829 | Whence comes it else, that men are up and down in their spirits, and comforted according to their actings? |
A25829 | Whence is all this? |
A25829 | Wherefore have we afflicted our soul, and thou takest no knowledge? |

A25829 | Why should the living man complain, man for the punishment of his sin? |
A25829 | Why so? |
A25829 | Why, Because they have not remembred God: What is the cause of all those distrustful thoughts that do arise in the hearts of God''s own people? |
A25829 | Why, he made thee, he fashioned thee, and is it fit for the creature to contend with his Maker? |
A25829 | Will the Lord cast off for ever? |

A25829 | Worship him, How? |
A25829 | Yea, Christ is very ready to go out to meet such children and young men: Are the hearts of young ones towards the Lord? |
A25829 | Yea, hath there not been some secret intimations of love, though thou hast not received so much as another? |

A25829 | and dost now resolve to cast thy self upon Christ, to venture all upon Christ, even thy eternity? |
A25829 | and is it not declared that whosoever doth believe shall be saved? |
A25829 | and may we not object from thence against the absoluteness of God''s Decree? |
A25829 | and shall not this be found in Christ towards his children? |
A25829 | and the bread and wine in the Sacrament, but a signe to us? |

A25829 | may not all this provoke thee to thankfulness? |
A25829 | may we not go to our friends, is it not lawful to go to men when we are under pressures and burdens, either of the outward or inward man? |
A25829 | or how shall we know that the love of Parents to their children, is not only the working of Natural affection? |
A25829 | or the son of Abraham? |
A25829 | saith the Lord by the Prophet Amos: Is there any evil of affliction that I have not brought upon a people? |
A25829 | say they, they think it is presumption for them to ascend into heaven; and who can know( say they) that they are loved from everlasting? |
A25829 | she might have exprest him to have been true man, and called him the son of Adam, why not the son of Adam? |

A17330 | Againe, when you haue visited some few places or persons; what do you? |
A17330 | Againe: He that made the eye, shall he not see? |
A17330 | Alas what aunswer will they make when Christ shall stay them, and say vnto them: What is that to you? |
A17330 | An honest man they say he is, but of what religion is he? |
A17330 | And by what other pollicie( I pray you) doth the vicar of hell still hold his place, but by the contentions of Princes and Nations? |
A17330 | And do not diuerse Protestants play the same part? |
A17330 | And doubtlesse it could not be otherwise then an euident note of vaineglorie in them: for what needed they make any proclamation for the matter? |
A17330 | And first of his vnderstanding: What vnderstanding hath the vnregenerate or naturall man? |
A17330 | And for the first, haue I dealt more seuerely against hypocrites then the Scripture, and namely our Sauiour Christ? |
A17330 | And for the richer sort, why sir, we see them not, we know them not that do offend: do you know any? |
A17330 | And good reason; for, to what purpose should the vnfruitfull tree stand? |
A17330 | And great reason: for shall we beget children, and not vnto God? |
A17330 | And how can that hart be a good hart to God- ward, that is stored with leud things? |
A17330 | And how? |
A17330 | And if God bring his children to that point for one fault, and the iudge for another, what iniustice is in God? |
A17330 | And if they do thus vnto the green tree,( saith Christ) what shal be done to the dry tree? |
A17330 | And is all this no hurt? |

A17330 | And therefore we say as the disciples said, when they heard Christ say, one should betray him: Is it I? |
A17330 | And thus you see the worlds reward: are not men well rewarded now, that looke for no more then the praise of men? |

A17330 | And what hast thou gotten Paule for thy labour? |
A17330 | And what in their mouths? |
A17330 | And what is all this, or whatsoeuer else can be sayd of it, but scarce a shadow of sincerities reward? |
A17330 | And what is that but to be praised of men? |
A17330 | And what is the religion of all such, but a play to be seene of men? |
A17330 | And what is this but plaine Atheisme? |
A17330 | And what kingdome? |
A17330 | And what other account will the world make of vs if we deale plainly with them for their soules health, but as of babling fooles and mad men? |
A17330 | And what sinne can be named almost, that is not bought and sold in the market of the Romish church? |
A17330 | And what will be the end of all this, but a fearefull iudgement of God vpon the land, to end the matter withall? |
A17330 | And who doth not see how abundantly God hath blessed you? |
A17330 | And why so? |
A17330 | And will the wicked deale better with the members then they did with the head? |
A17330 | And, who can say, my heart is cleane( saith Salomon?) |
A17330 | Art thou conuerted vnto God? |
A17330 | Art thou filled with the fruites of righteousnes? |
A17330 | Art thou not ashamed to lye? |
A17330 | Art thou troubled with a generation of vipers as Iohn was? |
A17330 | Because he did not please vs. Not please you, why? |
A17330 | But alas sir( will hypocrisie say) what would you haue vs to do? |
A17330 | But here now groweth a question: whether may we iudge of reprobates vnreuealed or no? |
A17330 | But how can that be( will some say) that a man should giue almes, or do any other good deed, and not make himselfe priuy to the matter? |
A17330 | But how shall I get out of their hands? |
A17330 | But how shall I take heede? |
A17330 | But may we conclude of euery one that is sodainly taken away, that he died a wicked man,& in the number of such as this text speaketh of? |
A17330 | But now it may be demaunded: what is Christian vnitie? |
A17330 | But this is as hard a saying to flesh and bloud as can be; yea who can endure it? |
A17330 | But what are the goods then that good men haue in this life? |
A17330 | But what commendation shall we deserue if we forsake Poperie and serue other sinnes? |
A17330 | But what could Eue say at the last? |
A17330 | But what is it that he will write? |
A17330 | But what is it to haue a good name, or how may it be gotten? |
A17330 | But what is it to trouble Israel? |
A17330 | But what is this but to deuide Christ? |
A17330 | But what of all that? |
A17330 | But what saith our Sauiour Christ to the woman of Samaria? |
A17330 | But what saith our Sauiour Christ? |
A17330 | But what sayth the same Apostle? |
A17330 | But what then? |
A17330 | But what were they and these too? |
A17330 | But who are pure? |
A17330 | But why are these goods common? |
A17330 | But why did you hate him? |
A17330 | But why doth he compare the tongue vnto a pen? |
A17330 | But why is Belial called Ish, which is a word of strength, vertue and perfection? |
A17330 | But wil God destroy the work of his hands? |
A17330 | But yet for all this, they may feare God in their hearts, may they not? |
A17330 | Can any man so serue God that there shall be no leudnes nor euill in his heart? |
A17330 | Can you tell vs of any? |
A17330 | Can your father and mother? |
A17330 | Christ came downe from heauen to vs, not onely to visite vs, but also to cure vs; and shall not we visite him when he is sicke in his members? |
A17330 | Christ or Belial? |
A17330 | Could Ignatius and Polycarpus haue liued aboue fiue or sixe yeeres more then they did? |
A17330 | Did Zimri and Cozbi look to haue bene pierced through with Phineas his speare, when they played the open naughtie- packes together? |
A17330 | Did you not marke how he smiled ar such a word? |
A17330 | Do not men start and feare, when of a sodaine they meete with their friends? |
A17330 | Do you present anie of them? |
A17330 | Do you take twelue pence apeece of them according to the Statute? |
A17330 | Doest thou offer kindnesse? |
A17330 | Dost thou intreat for peace? |
A17330 | Dost thou talk in priuate with a woman? |
A17330 | Doth he so? |
A17330 | Doth this doctrine concerne me? |
A17330 | Euen so, if he had made all rich and none poore, what should then the rich haue had to exercise their liberalitie vpon? |
A17330 | First, if thou wilt be counted a true Christian, and a sincere professor of the truth, why doest thou lodge any one sinne with delight in thy heart? |
A17330 | For ask them: Is it not the truth that we teach? |
A17330 | For first, how contrarie to Gods course is the practise of Antichrist, and Papists? |
A17330 | For what say many? |
A17330 | For who can abide to haue a wrong picture made of himselfe? |
A17330 | For who so cruell as the harlot, that is made a mother before her time? |
A17330 | For who would haue thought now that such an auditour of such a Preacher had loued his brothers wife, and kept her as his wife? |
A17330 | For wold it not grieue any man to be either annoyed in his owne house, or put out of his inheritance which he hath dearely purchased and paied for? |
A17330 | God or the Diuell? |
A17330 | Gods childrē are far from the nature of wicked Belial, which vse to say: What? |
A17330 | Hast thou a new heart? |
A17330 | Hath the hypocrite any wrong, to haue no more but the truth sayd and proued against him? |
A17330 | Haue not some of them bene Necromancers, sorcerers, and coniurers? |
A17330 | How are their affections bent? |
A17330 | How are their toungs vsed? |
A17330 | How canst thou say that thou louest me, when thy heart is not with me? |
A17330 | How doth he serue God with his familie? |
A17330 | How famous is Dauid for conquering of Goliah, and for his zealous courage in fetching home of the Arke? |
A17330 | How famous is Deborah for iudging of Israel, and Iael for nailing of Sisera( Captaine of King Iabins host) vnto the ground? |
A17330 | How like you the Sermon? |
A17330 | How many comming through Cathedrall churches, kneele downe by a pillar as though they prayed, onely to be seene of men? |
A17330 | How many do build aloft like Nimrods, euen till Babel( that is to say, confusion) fall vpon their heads, and onely to get a name amongst men? |
A17330 | How many do giue and forgiue to be seene of men? |
A17330 | How many do lend and giue their word vainegloriously, to be praised of men? |
A17330 | How many haue Sermons and Dole at their burials only to be praised of men? |
A17330 | How many haue euen confessed their faultes and wept for their sinnes too, euen to be seene of men? |
A17330 | How many heare the word, and daily frequent the exercises of religion, onely to be seene of men? |
A17330 | How many sinnes do of a sudden steale vpon vs, and slippe from vs, when we thinke not of this, that God seeth in secret? |
A17330 | How suddenly are they destroyed, perished, and horribly consumed? |
A17330 | I am in bed, how can I rise? |
A17330 | I haue put off my clothes, how shal I put them on againe? |
A17330 | I haue washed my feete, how can I defile them? |
A17330 | I promise you saith the third, and that is the reward: he is very braue: she is very fine saith another: Is it a man or a woman sayth another? |
A17330 | Ieremy was counted a contentious person, Ezechi ● ls Sermons we reckned of but as of a fidlers song? |
A17330 | If God would not giue me more, why haue I forgone those which I had? |
A17330 | If I should not haue it something like on my table, and weare somewhat, and giue somewhat more then ordinary, how should I be accounted of? |
A17330 | If a wicked man be reproued for couetousnesse, what is his defence but this: How know you that I am couetous? |
A17330 | If then this be the portion of the wicked man from God, what reason haue the wicked to hope for saluation, and not to feare destruction? |
A17330 | In how many dangers hast thou bene both by sea and by land? |
A17330 | In like maner is it now in the light of the Gospell: Aske thy due, thou art couetous: crauest thou helpe? |
A17330 | In like manner are those rewarded, that iet in all kind of brauery, with pedlers shops about them: as many women do? |
A17330 | Is it I? |
A17330 | Is it not then a labour well bestowed, to set our selues onely to get praise of men? |
A17330 | Is it onely to be a diligent hearer of Sermons? |
A17330 | Is it so to liue as all men may speake well of vs? |
A17330 | Is there any thing then more miserable then to hunt for the praise of men? |
A17330 | Is there no hurt in euill words, which be as infectious and daungerous to good manners, as any plague, sore is to the bodie? |
A17330 | Is this all religion? |
A17330 | Is this to me? |
A17330 | Is this true will you say? |
A17330 | It is true indeed: but what count you religion? |
A17330 | Lastly, the very asking of that question, be thou a Christian, or a Heathen? |
A17330 | Monarch( said I?) |
A17330 | Much more are men moued when they are pictured like beastes, or see a man set foorth with a beasts head: that is a monster, who can abide it? |
A17330 | Nay what strumpet so impudent that in her husbands sight dareth prostitute herselfe before another? |
A17330 | No, we could not find any fault with his doctrine, that is sound: but yet we can not away with him, he was too plaine and round with vs. Too plaine? |
A17330 | Now if it be so with one sinne that thou hast bene familiar withall, what wilt thou do, when all thy sinnes are proued customes? |
A17330 | Now seeing these things are so, what could I propound more necessary, then this preseruatiue against the foresayd poyson? |
A17330 | Now then, what remaineth for this point? |
A17330 | Now what a ridiculous iest is it, to see one mince and chew a smal crum of bread for feare of choaking, and yet swallow downe a whole loafe? |
A17330 | Now what an odious thing is that which depriueth Christians of such a blessing, and blessed meanes of fellowship and great ioy? |
A17330 | Now what is the religion of all these I pray you? |
A17330 | Now, who more vnfruitfull then the wicked? |
A17330 | Of ciuill actions and religious actions? |
A17330 | Of what tribe, or citie art thou? |
A17330 | Oh master how shall we know these things, wilt thou say? |
A17330 | Oh sinceritie, sinceritie, where hast thou bene all this while, say they? |
A17330 | Or can the world take it from you, if God doth giue it you? |
A17330 | Or did Corah, Dathan, and Abiram looke for the opening of the earth vnder them, when they were swallowed vp for their rebellion against Moses& Aaron? |
A17330 | Or did Ieroboam looke for a leporous hand, when he put it forth against the Prophet of God? |
A17330 | Or did Sisera looke for death when Iael tooke him napping, and knocked a naile into his head? |
A17330 | Or doth all power of iudging, and ability of discerning belong onely to the outward man, and none to the inward man? |
A17330 | Or what? |
A17330 | Others like the Herodians: Is it lawful to pay tribute to Caesar or no? |
A17330 | Say not as Achab sayd to Eliah: Hast thou found me ô my enemy? |
A17330 | See you a Magistrate ruled by his officers, who should but see out of him? |
A17330 | See you a Minister silent, when he should preach? |
A17330 | See you one( whether man or woman) cōtending to talke, whē they ought to be silent and to heare others? |
A17330 | Shal the one part lift vs vp to any proud conceipt of our selues? |
A17330 | Shall Achab escape the bitternes of death, because he is a King? |
A17330 | Shall Iezabel escape or be fauoured, because she is a Queene, and faire without? |
A17330 | Shall not a iury of twelue men iudge of a fellon, because Christ hath sayd iudge not? |
A17330 | Shall not the Goldsmith iudge of mettals, because Christ hath sayd, Iudge not? |
A17330 | Shall not the Iudge giue iudgement vpon a malefactour, because Christ hath sayd, Iudge not? |
A17330 | Shall not the Phisition iudge of a sicke body, because Christ hath sayd, Iudge not? |
A17330 | Shall not the eare iudge of sounds, and the eye of colours, and the nose of smels, and the pallate of meates, because Christ hath sayd Iudge not? |
A17330 | Shall we continue still in sinnes,( saith the Apostle) that grace may abound? |
A17330 | So shamelesse and impudent are the fauourites of Belial, that they will not sticke to say: How know you that he is a wicked man, or a wicked woman? |
A17330 | So would many answere now( no doubt:) Are we dogges, that we should so vse God seruants,& c? |
A17330 | So, what say you to bishops, what think you of the booke of Cōmonprayer? |
A17330 | Surely most men do know this to be true, euen by experience( the schoolemaister of fooles) but how few do rightly consider of it? |
A17330 | Take for example, the Apostles and Martyrs: dost thou not yet euē drink of their liqour? |
A17330 | Tell me now, is there any thing more vncertaine then the good opinion of men? |
A17330 | Tell vs, or resolue vs of our doubt: Is it lawfull to pay tribute to Caesar or no? |
A17330 | The Apostle Paul( to shew the fruit of sinne) asketh this question: What fruit( saith he) haue you of those things whereof ye are now, ashamed? |
A17330 | The fruit of this tree is faire in shew, but in tast most bitter, for what else is it, but feare& shame, and death eternall? |
A17330 | The heart is deceitfull aboue all things( saith Ieremy) who can know it? |
A17330 | The praise of men what is it? |
A17330 | The praise of men what is it? |
A17330 | The sacrifice of the wicked is an abhomination( sayth Salomon) how much more when he bringeth it with an euill mind? |
A17330 | Then: when thou seest that thou art in danger of committing wickednesse, who can compell thee to keepe such a wicked promise? |
A17330 | Then: why art thou so rash as to promise thou knowest not what? |
A17330 | There is no peace vnto the wicked saith my God: he doth not say, that the wicked do not rest, or will not rest: but they can not rest: And why? |
A17330 | Therefore commonly Christ asked this question of those which came to be healed of him: Canst thou beleeue? |
A17330 | Therefore the vngodly being in hell, do crie out of their folly, and say, how haue we wearied our selues in the waies of wickednesse? |
A17330 | Therfore, where should their place be but vpon the dunghill? |
A17330 | These things being well considered,( I say) what else is the reward of hypocrisie compounded of, but of vanitie and misery it selfe? |
A17330 | They are swift in going, whereabout is it? |
A17330 | They set their mouth against heauen, and their tongue walketh through the earth: and they say, how doth God know it? |
A17330 | To what vse serueth vnsauoury salt, but for the dunghil? |
A17330 | Was Dauid then a man of Belial? |
A17330 | Was not one of thē a harlot? |
A17330 | We would rather go naked then to be clothed: but what skils it whether a man be tormented in veluet, or in canuas, in gold, or in yron? |
A17330 | What Vniuersitie was he of? |
A17330 | What a coile do others keepe about sitting and kneeling at the Communion? |
A17330 | What care hath he to bring vp his children in the feare of God? |
A17330 | What deuises? |
A17330 | What feare do they sustaine in following their wickednes? |
A17330 | What had that blessed Apostle to boast of when he came at Macedonia, but of the zeale of the Corinthians? |
A17330 | What hath encouraged and emboldned them to come before God in prayer, but the testimoniall of a sincere heart, and holy affection? |
A17330 | What hath soundly comforted all the Saines of God here on earth, but the testimonie of an vpright heart? |
A17330 | What if men know not, yea what if he that is relieued, do not know him that hath relieued him? |
A17330 | What is the harlots talking of paying her vowes, and offering her peace offerings: but a signe of a godly woman? |
A17330 | What is then more miserable then to make the praise of men the end of our labor? |
A17330 | What is this but to make an idoll of the true God? |
A17330 | What manner of reward is this? |
A17330 | What more vnsauourie then vngodlines? |
A17330 | What need they care what they do, so they may be forgiuen for giuing of a litle Apostolicall gold? |
A17330 | What need we go any further for an exāple of this play, then to the Popish church? |
A17330 | What paines did Ioab take with the host of Israel, to quench the rebellion of Absalom? |
A17330 | What praise and encouragement did Ioab the Kings Generall, with all the Captaines of the armie, looke for at the Kings hand? |
A17330 | What say you of their throat? |
A17330 | What shall the souldiers do at the hold, if the captaine of the hold be a traitour? |
A17330 | What should be thought of those sixe thousand skulles of children, which were found in another Popes Mote? |
A17330 | What signes of humility also shall we see, or not see, euen in the proudest persons that are? |
A17330 | What then? |
A17330 | What then? |
A17330 | What they must trust vnto if they truly repent not, he sheweth, when he saith: how should ye escape the damnation of hell? |
A17330 | What thinke you of Bishops& their calling( say some?) |

A00980 | 143 M Meditation: What it signifieth? |
A00980 | 15. that my honours, profits, pleasures should perish, and all my thoughts and labours vanish like a cloud? |
A00980 | 18 For how should Christ, who is light, haue fellowship with darknesse, and not expell it? |
A00980 | 23. how shall he lose his way, whose wayes are preserved by God? |
A00980 | 3. how much more is it hee alone, who causeth us to find favour in his owne eyes, in whose loving favour is all our happinesse? |
A00980 | 8. what benefit of his resurrection, who hath no life of the Spirit? |
A00980 | Aboue the rest, negligence in performance of dutie they account as nothing: as demaund of them, what zeale haue you in prayer? |
A00980 | Admi ● ● ble is his patience,* with what great forbearance did he instruct the old world by Noah? |
A00980 | After that sentence what canst thou say for thy selfe? |
A00980 | Againe hath my gracious& long- suff ● ring Father all this time waited that he may haue mercy on me? |
A00980 | Againe; canst thou not be a Saint? |
A00980 | Alas where doe these fruits appeare? |
A00980 | All things come alike to all; when the righteous bee scarcely saved, where shall the ungodly and sinner appeare? |
A00980 | Am I any thing better? |
A00980 | And are not all these spirituall, immortall, and glorious? |
A00980 | And doe not men know and acknowledge God to be Almightie, not to be resisted? |
A00980 | And for a motiue to stop thee from this course, consider thei ● steppes, how many feete haue gone that way, how few returned? |
A00980 | And how are they now? |
A00980 | And how doe wee serue him, but in holinesse and righteousnesse? |
A00980 | And how justly might thousands of Christians tremble, when they see their affections in this particular so contrary to Christ? |
A00980 | And indeed how should it bee otherwise? |
A00980 | And is Gods commaund of no force with thee? |
A00980 | And is not this obtained by the word, and by it onely? |
A00980 | And now see yonder the Lord Iesus offereth himselfe unto me for my salvation: Shall I be worse then that Daemoniake? |
A00980 | And on whom doth hee bestow it, but on his faithfull servants? |
A00980 | And this is the very summe of all happinesse, for how can hee want any good thing which enioyeth such a Father? |
A00980 | And what? |
A00980 | And what? |
A00980 | And will not our experience also testifie it? |
A00980 | And wilt thou take from one businesse to giue to another? |
A00980 | And yet how many still cleaue unto her, and dote upon her wrinkles? |
A00980 | Animula vagula, blandula quae nunc abibis in loca? |
A00980 | Ar ● thou a Scholler, and aymest at the Ministerie? |
A00980 | Are not our hearts held with strong witcherie while wee thus dote? |
A00980 | Are the rich instructed that they trust not in uncertaine riches, but in the living God? |
A00980 | Are they kindly intreated, and waged with blessings? |
A00980 | Are they not compelled to deny that other Kings haue shared out the Empire among them? |
A00980 | Are they not compelled to grant and maintaine impossibilities? |
A00980 | Are they not then lying children? |
A00980 | Are they smitten? |
A00980 | Are we not naturally afraid of those who can kill the body? |
A00980 | Are we now got up unto some comfortable or honourable place? |
A00980 | Are you( say they) without your faults? |
A00980 | Art thou a Minister of the word? |
A00980 | Art thou a Statist, and standest before Kings? |
A00980 | Art thou a Tradesman? |
A00980 | Art thou a scholler in the schoole of Christ? |
A00980 | Art thou an hearer? |
A00980 | Art thou dead in sinne? |
A00980 | Art thou dull? |
A00980 | Art thou in sorrow? |
A00980 | Art thou in state of damnation, and knowest no way out of it? |
A00980 | Art thou indeed stronger then God? |
A00980 | Art thou not his debtour? |
A00980 | Art thou not servant to the same Lord, wearest thou not the same livery of skin and flesh? |
A00980 | Art thou washed in the blood of the Covenant,& so hast received reconciliation? |
A00980 | As thou hast fallen with that Saint, so hast thou risen with him? |
A00980 | At length some few blades spring up here and there: why then shouldest thou expect seede time and harvest all in a day? |
A00980 | Beside how shall they which are dead to sinne, liue yet therein? |
A00980 | But doe we not see wicked rebells often flourish, and liue in wealth and prosperitie, yea die also and are buried peaceably, and pompously? |
A00980 | But doe you not spend too much time in the Ale- house? |
A00980 | But dost thou find the word of God spring in thy heart? |
A00980 | But doth not Christ a ● firme, that hee leaues not the worlds peace with the faithfull? |
A00980 | But had not Herod, and haue not temporary beleevers a tast, yea a delighting tast in the word? |
A00980 | But how comes it to be good unto us, which is so evill in it selfe? |
A00980 | But how deadly, and desperate is their estate, who grow worse and worse? |
A00980 | But how farre did this my Guide exceed me in all outward blessings? |
A00980 | But how should we fasten this day in our hearts? |
A00980 | But if we laugh at those that are scared with a vizard, how ridiculous to be amazed with such emptie shewes of evill? |
A00980 | But if you beleeve not his writing, how should you beleeve our preaching? |
A00980 | But is it not the savour of death? |
A00980 | But let me aske thee; Dost thou not still persevere in the way of sinners? |
A00980 | But may we not still complaine? |
A00980 | But then who can know whether God will hide himselfe, whether the word shall profit, or his eare be stopt to thy petitions? |
A00980 | But what is the resemblance betweene them? |
A00980 | But what meanes are to bee used? |
A00980 | But what need we travaile to forraine Nations for witnesse to this truth, when our owne Land even in our time, is a strong confirmation of it? |
A00980 | But what will you doe in the end thereof? |
A00980 | Can I forbeare laughing to see a man seeke for grapes among thornes, or figs from thistles? |
A00980 | Can any man plead ignorance, and say? |
A00980 | Can businesse excuse thee? |
A00980 | Can there be a more easie command then this? |
A00980 | Can you bee in the fellowship of the Saints, and of God through Christ, when thus your heart cleaveth to wicked sinfull persons? |
A00980 | Canst thou hate those that hold of superstitious vanities, and say, away from me you wicked, for I will keepe the Commandements of my God? |
A00980 | Canst thou long for the house of thy God? |
A00980 | Consider thy companie, hast thou loved the Brethren? |
A00980 | Consider what str ● ames of teares flowed from the eyes of Mary Magdalen? |
A00980 | David( sayth he) wrote some f ● w Psalmes, why might he not? |
A00980 | Desirest thou the true honour and dignitie of my kingdome? |
A00980 | Do those chastisements of God weane thy heart from the vanities of this life, and the flatteries of this world? |
A00980 | Doe I mocke at his idle paines, who spreads a fishing net upon the mountaines, plowes the sands, or sowes the seas? |
A00980 | Doe I thinke he deserues to be deceived, who being often abused with lies, will still trust? |
A00980 | Doe but find one gracious man, who hath received this treasure, and hides it up in a napkin? |
A00980 | Doe not many learned in the Ministerie, despising the frequencie of preaching, neglect it in their owne practise, condemne it in others? |
A00980 | Doe not men say as those Israelits, Wee are Lords wee will come no more at thee? |
A00980 | Doe they presently obey the heavenly warning? |
A00980 | Doe we thinke that a swearers or cursers mouth is not inhabited with a devill of blasphemie? |
A00980 | Doe wee now learne to detest intemperancie, and weyn our selues from excesse? |
A00980 | Doe you not leaue undone many necessary duties? |
A00980 | Doe you not liue in these or some of these sinnes? |
A00980 | Doe you not vse the Masse, our Lady, your faith, and troth in oaths? |
A00980 | Doe you not yet perceiue, nor remember? |
A00980 | Doe you thus serue him? |
A00980 | Doe you tremble and rejoyce in the word? |
A00980 | Doest thou heare him, reproving openly those that sinne, sharply rebuking, that men may be sound in the ● aith? |
A00980 | Dost thou bring on thy soule to delight in the Lord? |
A00980 | Dost thou consider thy wayes, and turne thy feete into the testimonies of the Lord? |
A00980 | Dost thou cry for knowledge? |
A00980 | Dost thou feele it begin to roote it selfe in a constant delight? |
A00980 | Dost thou labour to redeeme thy lost time? |
A00980 | Dost thou make hast, and delayest not? |
A00980 | Dost thou provoke him to anger, and dost thou not provoke thy selfe to confusion of face? |
A00980 | Dost thou seeke for wisedome as for silver, and search for it as for treasures? |
A00980 | Dost thou sigh and grone under the burden of unbeliefe? |
A00980 | Dost thou stirre up thy soule to hold Christ, and rest upon him? |
A00980 | Dost thou teach the way of holinesse? |
A00980 | Dost thou then find that good seed cast into thy heart? |
A00980 | Doth it send forth any fruit, and shew it selfe, though yet weakly? |
A00980 | Doth not a Devill of profanenesse possesse thy heart, when thou neglectest God in his Ordinances? |
A00980 | Doth not an uncleane spirit dwell in wanton and adulterous eyes? |
A00980 | Doth not the covetous know, that he is an Idolat ● r: that extortioners, usurers, and oppressours shall not ent ● r into the Kingdome of God? |
A00980 | Doth not the word daily sound in our eares? |
A00980 | Doth not thy excellencie consist in likenesse to thy Creator and Redeemer, and in his divine nature? |
A00980 | Doth that peace of God rule in thy heart? |
A00980 | Evill men can giue good things to their children: what shall he deny to his, who is infinite Godnesse? |
A00980 | Find in all th ● world such a foole, that wilfully will runne into knowne and confessed destruction? |
A00980 | For aske them; Is it not sinne to breake the Sabboth, to doe thine owne worke upon Gods day, to absent and with- draw thy selfe from the Assemblies? |
A00980 | For doe they not know that wicked persons living in open rebellion against the lawes of God, are by God rejected, and hated? |
A00980 | For hast thou neither in thy heart lightly esteem''d, nor in thy words jested, nor in thy actions slighted this solemne day? |
A00980 | For how should that giue us rest, which is never at a stay in it selfe, but ever ebbing and flowing? |
A00980 | For the word; when thou hast heard it sometime threatning, sometime promising, hast thou not set it at thy heeles? |
A00980 | For to seeke and search for wicked riches and pleasures, that is, to pursue our owne destruction, what madnesse is beyond it? |
A00980 | For what fruit hath he of Christs death, whom wee see liue to sinne? |
A00980 | For what is the object of rejection but evill? |
A00980 | For what will you doe now in the day of your visitation, and destruction which shall come? |
A00980 | God commaunds it: and doth not the same God commaund thee to read his word, and exercise thy selfe in it? |
A00980 | Hast thou attain ● d to that steppe of wisedome, to know thou knowest nothing as thou oughtest to know? |
A00980 | Hast thou esteemed the word of his mouth more then thy appointed food? |
A00980 | Hast thou not received all from God? |
A00980 | Hast thou striken a covenant with the Lord? |
A00980 | Hath not the Truth, which can not lie assured me, and will not my reason confirme it, that he scornes the scorner? |
A00980 | Hath not the finger of God in his word painted, and pointed him out, that hee who even shuts his eyes, can not but grope and feele him? |
A00980 | Hath not the word plainely discover''d them to us? |
A00980 | Haue not wee such liue among us? |
A00980 | Haue the poore learned of the Apostle, let him that stole steale no more? |
A00980 | Haue we shaken off those not more heavy, then loathsome chaines of Satan? |
A00980 | Haue you any right to that holy Hill, when you make much of a man vile, unprofitable, and noysome, and the righteous is contemned in thine eyes? |
A00980 | Hee hath put the sword of Magistracie into thine hand, wilt thou use it as this King? |
A00980 | Hee that planted the eare shall he not heare, and hee that formed the eye shall hee not see, hee that teacheth ma ● knowledge shall hee not know? |

A00980 | How delightfull is gaine and profit to a worldly heart? |
A00980 | How did Paul humble himselfe in respect of his pers ● cution? |
A00980 | How did this hearten David in all persecution of Saul, and slanders of his enemies? |
A00980 | How doe coole waters refresh a wearie Pilgrime toiled in dust and travaile? |

A00980 | How easily doe wee forget the consolation, which speakes to vs as children? |
A00980 | How farre are th ● y from it? |
A00980 | How farre from a Christian, who hast no loue to such whom Christ hath loved beyond his life? |

A00980 | If hee should then deride my petition, scorne my supplication, and laugh at my miserie, what can be expected but a fearfull instant damnation? |

A00980 | Let the day perish wherein I was borne, why died I not in the birth? |
A00980 | Looke out and behold the wayes of men, what multitudes tread in this path? |
A00980 | Lord, Lord haue not ● I professed thy name? |
A00980 | Machiavell? |
A00980 | Must this chiefe and speciall action of thy life, giue place to every vaine occasion? |
A00980 | Nay he invites me, and shall I refuse him? |
A00980 | Nay how many are there which deny the Lord, and say it is not he? |
A00980 | Now br ● thren, doe not wee know, and professe the necessitie of these duties? |
A00980 | Now how soveraign a cordiall is this doctrine to those who can truely apply it to their owne soules? |
A00980 | Now if thou desirest to know what course must be taken for effecting this separation: know first, it is the worke of God, for who hath separated thee? |
A00980 | Now in great affaires we never content our selues with any measure of diligence: how shamefull and full of unbeliefe then is this negligence? |
A00980 | Now that thine eyes are opened to see thy vanitie, dost thou lament thy folly, turne thy feet with hast into the good way? |
A00980 | Now what shall it profit mee, if I as those vaunting Pharises justifie my selfe, when the Lord knowes and condemnes me? |
A00980 | Now when so gracious meanes are offered, who takes hold of them? |
A00980 | O you of little faith, why doe you thinke thus? |
A00980 | Offer such service to thy Prince, and try whether he will be content with it, and accept thy person? |
A00980 | Oh canst thou thinke thy best endevours too much for that, for which thy Master( the Wisedome of God) thought not his best bloud too good? |
A00980 | Oh how farre are we from that melting heart of good Iosiah? |
A00980 | Oh how is it, that we are so slothfull in matters concerning our eternall happinesse? |
A00980 | Oh how the soule by it is delighted, ravished, and even here on earth, transported for a time into a third heaven? |
A00980 | Oh then how welcome to mee will be the least hope, that God would lend me a mercifull eare to heare me? |
A00980 | Or how can any man feed too much, when no man can loue enough? |
A00980 | Poore wandring soule, what place now remains for thee? |
A00980 | Remember thy selfe and me, and know I will not hold thee guiltlesse: my curse shall here light vpon thee, how much more hereafter? |
A00980 | Shall I not flye to him for succour? |
A00980 | Shall I say? |
A00980 | Shall I then willingly plucke this infinite misery upon my head? |
A00980 | Shall the wild Olive be grafted in, and we the naturall branches be cut off? |
A00980 | Should I complaine of discouragements, trouble, contempt, poverty, affliction? |
A00980 | Should we heare a Husbandman professe, that he had so much businesse, that he could find no time to plow or sow, who would not thinke the man mad? |
A00980 | So also the reading of the word how is it slighted by men? |
A00980 | So what is the object of hate but contrarietie? |
A00980 | Take heed how thou hearest: why doe wee n ● glect Christ Iesus speaking to us in these glad tydings of salvation? |
A00980 | Tell that Fox: how sharpely and bitterly doth hee abase the Pharises? |
A00980 | The eare is pleased with sweete words, and ● loquent speeches; but how pleasant to a spirituall eare is this upright writing, the words of truth? |
A00980 | The more foule thy sinnes are, the more are thy teares, and sorrow, the more thy loue to thy gracious Lord, pardoning such, and so many offences? |
A00980 | The times which God himselfe hath sanctified for the hearing of his word, is it carefully observed and spent in this employment? |
A00980 | Then thou wilt cry; How haue I hated instruction, and mine heart despised correction? |
A00980 | Then, O wretched man that I am, who shall deliver mee from the wrath to come? |
A00980 | These are good signes of life and health: when the wind blowes, dost thou not fli ● out of the floore, and embracest the world? |
A00980 | They are vanitie and vexation of spirit, how then can they bee any part of prosperitie? |
A00980 | They heare the g ● acious promise of God, I Haue no desire that the wicked should die, shall he not live if he returne from his evill way? |
A00980 | They ordained Ministers in every congregation, and was not their word the embassage of God? |
A00980 | They say unto me, where is the word of the Lord? |
A00980 | Thinke you that none but such strait- laced creatures can enter into Gods Kingdome? |
A00980 | This comfortable advantage haue all the Saints: they serue such a Lord to whom they may truely( as David) say, What can David say more unto thee? |
A00980 | This text much confirmes this point: but yet further; Doe we not see many true servants of God, who tremble at his word, liue not prosperously? |
A00980 | Thou art a poore man, need driues thee to worke for thy living; and art thou not more poore, and beggerly in spirit? |
A00980 | Thou art faint with sicknesse; dost thou find that as the outward man perisheth, so the inward man is renewed daily? |
A00980 | Thou enjoyest health, and other blessings: doe they worke upon thy heart to kindle more zeale to God, more loue to his name, and children? |
A00980 | Thou followest thy publike businesse: why so? |
A00980 | Thou in thy life time receiuedst pleasure, therefore now art thou tormented? |
A00980 | Thou loosest the pleasures of sinne, true; and is it not a pittifull thing for a swine to loose his tumbling in the mire? |
A00980 | Thou loosest thy sinfull profits; and is this so woefull a matter, to loose a milstone off thy necke, when thou art now in a deep water? |
A00980 | Thou must provide for thy familie: why so? |
A00980 | Thou which art beggerly in the true, canst thou despise the want of* wicked riches? |
A00980 | Though thou art great, canst thou abase thy selfe to bee a companion of all those that feare the Lord, and keepe his precepts? |
A00980 | Thus in the food and nourishment of sensible bodies what a strange difference doe we see? |
A00980 | To conclude, how shall he runne into all disorder, whose steppes are ordered by God? |
A00980 | To the covetous he suggests, what will you leaue the sweetnes of present gaine for future promises? |
A00980 | To whom will you flie, or where will you leaue your glory? |
A00980 | True: The soule of the di ● ● gent shall haue plentie: But what? |
A00980 | Try here thy wayes, see and consider how far thou hast proceeded in the paths of death: hast thou hearkned to the counsell of the ungodly? |
A00980 | Turne you, cast away all your transgressions, make you a new heart, aud a new spirit, for why will you dye? |
A00980 | Wantest thou spirituall wisedome? |
A00980 | Well now; And hath not Christ commanded, Sweare not at all? |
A00980 | What Christian but must confesse? |
A00980 | What Farmer obserues not a good Land- lord? |
A00980 | What Prince will endure lawes to be by his subje ● ts prescribed to him? |
A00980 | What a cordiall would this bee against all the revilings, contempts, and despitefull usage of the world? |
A00980 | What a shame were this to me, when I heare him professing? |

A00980 | What is the object of scorne, but folly and proud beggerie? |
A00980 | What is there that should not rather incite and hasten me? |
A00980 | What member of Christ art thou, who despisest such as thy head hath crowned with his heavenly Kingdome? |
A00980 | When Christ hath taken us by the hand why doe wee not catch hold on others, such especially as are neere us? |
A00980 | When Satan spoke, Thou art the holy one of God, was it not the truth? |
A00980 | When any lie is brought to us by Satan, the world, or our deceitful hearts, how easily is it entertain ● d? |
A00980 | When that g ● eat Husbandman expostulates with his Vineyard, what could haue been more done unto my vineyard, which I haue not done to it? |
A00980 | When thou hast conversed with the Saints, hast thou not despised that holy fellowship, and skoffed like profane Ismael? |
A00980 | Whence can this behaviour proceede, but from a notorious contempt of God? |
A00980 | Where is thy loue? |
A00980 | Where wilt thou seeke for helpe? |
A00980 | Who accounts himselfe a servant to Christ, bound to waite upon the posts of his doores? |
A00980 | Who can deny, but that there is more difference betweene the dead and the living, then between the weake& strong? |
A00980 | Who sets out a time, and resolues to spend it in this dutie? |
A00980 | Who thinkes himselfe blessed that he may heare him? |
A00980 | Whom shall I teach knowledge? |
A00980 | Why do they, or how can they thinke that man a member of Christ, who was never conformable to his death, by dying to sinne? |
A00980 | Why doe we turn away our eares,& say in heart as those wretched Iewes, we are Lords, wee will no more come at thee? |
A00980 | Why should he employ so many Writers? |
A00980 | Why will you die? |
A00980 | Will he be pleased with thousands of rammes? |
A00980 | Will men yeeld to the voice of God, Keepe not companie with drunkards? |
A00980 | Will you sweare, curse, lie, slander? |
A00980 | Will you walke in the counsell of the ungodly? |
A00980 | Wilt thou turne those calves of thy lippes my due sacrifice, to dogges or hell- hounds barking against thy Creatour? |
A00980 | With the drunkard he will plead; wilt thou change thy merrie companie for such a sowre, and joylesse life? |
A00980 | Yea that the Kingdome of Antichrist shall bee, not a mystery of iniquitie, but an heathen persecution? |
A00980 | an heire with Christ? |
A00980 | and answer, that thou canst doe him as good service at home? |
A00980 | and even broke open our shut eyes, that wee could not but discerne them? |
A00980 | and haue not obeyed the voice of them that taught mee, nor inclined mine eares to them that instructed mee? |
A00980 | and he that ladeth himselfe with thicke clay? |
A00980 | and how much more woefull, that they haue no feeling of this their woefull miserie? |
A00980 | and if he hath loved me when I was an enemie, will he forsake me now he hath seasoned my heart with some measure of loue, and desire of his service? |
A00980 | and is it possible that an immortall Spirit can be blessed by enjoying things fleshly and fading? |
A00980 | and onely for idle times? |
A00980 | and renewing strength hast fortified thy selfe, and art become even impregnable on that side? |
A00980 | and shall not I take it joyfully upon me? |
A00980 | and should I refuse it? |
A00980 | and so scorned that great work of God offering grace unto thee in his Ordinances? |
A00980 | and what? |
A00980 | and where is the feare of him who can kill body and soule? |
A00980 | and who hath separated thee? |
A00980 | and whom shall I make to vnderstand the things that he heareth? |
A00980 | and wilt thou not supply thy necessitie? |
A00980 | and yet what are wee the better in our practise then before? |
A00980 | are they ignorant, that they liue, and so purpose to liue in this estate? |
A00980 | be it either some gracious promise, or sharpe reproofe, how standest thou affected to it? |
A00980 | but the divine indignation, w ch will not spare in the day of vengeance? |

A13538 | Art thou a willing slaue to it? |
A13538 | Art thou in any trouble, or vnder any molestation of Satan or wicked men, vnder reproch, scandall, hatred, persecution,& c? |
A13538 | Art thou sicke in thy soule, or pained in thy body, and seest no way but present death? |
A13538 | Baltazer indeede was merrie, and in his Reuels with his Princes: but what cause had hee, when the Hand- writing appeared on the wall? |
A13538 | Besides, seest thou not what a fearefull debt one sinne of ADAM hath brought vpon vs all? |
A13538 | Besides, will it stand with Gods wisedome, to bestow and giue mercy to him that refuseth and despiseth it, or to fill with mercy the vessels of wrath? |
A13538 | But God is euery- where present, and what neede wee seeke him? |
A13538 | But by what meanes shall I thus keepe my heart? |
A13538 | But doe not the best finde such deceit in doing good, as that they haue great cause to bewaile it? |
A13538 | But doe you not thinke now that the false heart hath chosen her selfe good Schoole- masters? |
A13538 | But hee was fully assured, the Father of the faithfull, and an eminent man: what is that to vs, who are farre behinde him? |
A13538 | But how are these men wofully deluded, that thinke themselues safest and best, when God is farthest off them? |
A13538 | But how can a man make his sinnes knowne to God by confession, seeing he knowes them before? |
A13538 | But how can a man pray for the holy Ghost and obtayne him, when he hath him already? |
A13538 | But how farre are men from seeing their estate? |
A13538 | But how is this remission of sinne free, if wee can not haue it without these conditions of faith, repentance, confession,& c? |
A13538 | But how is this remission sealed vp vnto them? |
A13538 | But how may we make God our hiding place? |
A13538 | But how shall I come to haue experience of God? |
A13538 | But how shall I know, that God will bee my hiding place? |
A13538 | But how standeth this with all those euills and miseries, with which the godly are beset in this life? |
A13538 | But how will all this stand with those many places of Scripture? |
A13538 | But in this latter sort doth not the Commaundement of God plainely fight with his decree, when he commandeth that which he would not haue done? |
A13538 | But is no heart sincere, but that which is without sinne? |
A13538 | But is not this to delude men, to command them to beleeue who can not beleeue? |
A13538 | But is this no imputing of sinne, seeing wee pay the whole debt in our surety? |
A13538 | But is this not to impute sinne, to iudge a sinner as no sinner? |
A13538 | But many are the woes and miseries of the godly, and therefore what is it better to bee a godly man then a wicked? |
A13538 | But may we not looke at second causes? |
A13538 | But now, though the fault bee hainous and too common, what is the reason the multitude so exclames vpon it? |
A13538 | But seeing God knowes all so well, why must we confesse to him? |
A13538 | But seeing the wicked are deliuered from troubles as well as the godly, out of many iudgements, what priuiledge is this? |
A13538 | But sense and reason is against all these your sayings: What? |
A13538 | But this is strange, that wee must ioy euen in sorrow; how can a man reioyce and sorrow at the same time? |
A13538 | But vvherein stands this mercy, vvhereunto prayer must be coupled? |
A13538 | But was not Dauid farre ouerseene, to confesse onely to God? |
A13538 | But what gets a man by his obstinacie and frowardnesse against God? |
A13538 | But what hath God promised to any wicked man so persisting? |
A13538 | But what? |
A13538 | But whence was this safetie? |
A13538 | But whether may an vnregenerate Minister saue and conuert a man? |
A13538 | But why doe the Papists thus cofer vp the Scriptures now? |
A13538 | But, how can confession be sound, before sin bee pardoned, seeing nothing can be acceptable where sinne is not pardoned? |
A13538 | By what markes may I try my ioy, whether it be spirituall and in the Lord, or no? |
A13538 | Call now if any will answere, and to which of the Saints wilt thou turne? |
A13538 | Can Ministers remooue burdens, giue a couer large enough, and remit anothers debt? |
A13538 | Can a man, setting himselfe before God, confesse that sinne which he purposeth to liue in and hold and not forsake? |
A13538 | Can a mother forget her child? |
A13538 | Can he euer looke to come where God is, and not walke in Gods way? |
A13538 | Can hee, that is able by the prayer of faith with Israel to preuaile with God, want abundance of blessings? |
A13538 | Can one man carry both Magistracie and Ministrie? |
A13538 | Can that man bee other then beset with mercy, who hath a meanes to get within Gods store- house and treasury when hee will? |
A13538 | Can they be beset both with misery and mercy too? |
A13538 | Can we looke for a Sea of mercy from God, and will not let one drop fall on our brethren? |
A13538 | Come to the Drunkard; why? |
A13538 | Come, Let vs goe downe and see, if it be according to the cry of Sodome: how can hee goe downe, who is euery where? |
A13538 | Dauid was a King, how then commeth he to professe himselfe a Prophet or Teacher in the Church? |
A13538 | Did Christ or any of his Apostles bring in the trueth by fire or sword? |
A13538 | Did God send it for a doctrine of peace? |
A13538 | Did not Dauid hide himselfe in Woods, in Caues, Holes and Rockes? |
A13538 | Did not I forgiue thee all? |
A13538 | Did shee not wallow in her blood and filthinesse? |
A13538 | Did shee want meanes? |
A13538 | Diddest thou then euer finde a change in thy selfe, that thou wouldest not for a world bee the same man thou vvast and hold the same courses? |
A13538 | Doe men neede spurres and prouocations to vnchastitie and filthinesse? |
A13538 | Doe the godly seeke God in prayer? |
A13538 | Doe we improue our day of visitation according to the light and meanes that we haue? |
A13538 | Doe we lacke motiues? |
A13538 | Doe we trafficke with our talent to our Masters aduantage and not our owne? |
A13538 | Doe wee walke as redeemed from vaine conuersation? |
A13538 | Doe you then condemne all confession of man to man? |
A13538 | Doest thou accomplish and fulfill the lusts of it? |
A13538 | Doest thou professe seruice to God, and yet let Sinne and Satan toile thee with such infinite burdens, vnder which thou canst not stand? |
A13538 | Doest thou reioyce to draw thy friend to drinke a cup of poyson? |
A13538 | Doeth the Lord thus compasse the godly with such mercies? |
A13538 | Doth any burden of misery or crosse, inward or outward presse thee? |
A13538 | Doth any sinne oppresse thy conscience? |
A13538 | Doubting and Faith may stand, and will dwell together; else would not Christ haue said, O thou of little faith, why doubtedst thou? |
A13538 | Else why was not Sauls sinne remitted, seeing it was confessed? |
A13538 | Ephraim shall say, What haue I more to doe with Idols? |
A13538 | Euill is present with me? |
A13538 | Examine thy selfe by this, hath the flesh and the corruptions of it any dominion ouer thee as a voluntarie vassal? |
A13538 | Fifthly, he that would build a firme house, must lay a sure foundation; and wilt thou lay the foundation of thy happinesse in the dust? |
A13538 | Fiftly, What a mercy is it, peculiar to the Saints, to haue peace of conscience, and ioy of their estate? |
A13538 | Fiftly, must vve praise God for euill, and for affliction, and for taking away? |
A13538 | Findest thou that thy ignorance pleaseth thee not, and thy will conformeth it selfe to Gods will? |
A13538 | First, by faith, leaning vpon the promises: For what good can all the promises of God do, being not mingled& tempred with faith? |
A13538 | First, consider God hath made thee a man, and wilt thou by this propertie debase thy selfe, and equall thy selfe with beasts? |
A13538 | First, how little doe wee see what vnprofitable seruants wee are, when wee haue done all wee can? |
A13538 | First, it argues and brings a man into a weake state, which is very comfortlesse: what a grieuous burden is debt aboue a mans abilitie? |
A13538 | First, this sincere heart brings the person into acceptance with God: for whom doth he approue, but such as walke before him vprightly? |
A13538 | For the further opening of the wordes, sundrie questions are to be answered, as, First, Why is the Prophet so harsh and sharpe vvith his Scholers? |
A13538 | For what is this glasse? |
A13538 | For who euer heard, that chastitie was learned in the Stewes, or honestie at Playes? |
A13538 | Fourthly, What an inexhaust treasure of mercy is it, that the godly enioy? |
A13538 | Fourthly, how doe we cast our eyes onely on that, which God can giue, and not vpon that hee hath giuen, or we can receiue? |
A13538 | Fourthly, how highly doth God esteeme of a man or woman of a broken heart? |
A13538 | Fourthly, how vnlike are these men vnto God, who sets out sinne in a most odious sort? |
A13538 | Fourthly, is it so, that God remits onely the sinnes of repentants? |
A13538 | Fourthly, what can minister true ioy to him, that hath no part in any of Gods Ordinances, which begin and perfect the ioy of Gods people? |
A13538 | Fourthly, what doe the Scriptures else teach vs, while euery- where they make the particulars of our comfort, fruits of this root? |
A13538 | Fourthly, where were Gods truth, if he should forgiue the sinnes of impenitent and vnbeleeuing ones? |
A13538 | Fourthly, who can forgiue sinne but he? |
A13538 | Further, we must so consider our selues in times past, as wee forget not our selues for the present: Are vvee now healed? |
A13538 | God first called Adam, and said, Adam, where art thou? |
A13538 | Had Adam considered of Eues gift, had hee been so deceiued? |
A13538 | Hast thou then had a care and true desire of reconciliation? |
A13538 | Hast thou then subiected thy reason, affections, and delights vnto grace? |
A13538 | Hath hee smitten him as hee smote those that smote him? |
A13538 | Hath my Lord prouided with so much cost, so great saluation for my soule? |
A13538 | Hearest thou of a iudgement, or seest thou an approching danger? |

A13538 | How came Dauid to be so confident for future time? |
A13538 | How can God account of sinne as no sinne? |
A13538 | How can hee aske mercy, that hath no part in mercy? |
A13538 | How can sinne bee couered, since God seeth it, and can not but know all things, past, present, and to come? |
A13538 | How can they make account of safety in danger, who to hide themselues from persecution of the Gospell, leaue it vpon the plaine field? |
A13538 | How can this be, seeing faith is a full assurance and certaine perswasion? |
A13538 | How canst thou then claime any one promise( and much lesse all) when thou neuer keptest the least condition of faith and repentance? |
A13538 | How carryeth he vs in his armes, saues vs from danger, and maintaynes our peace of soule and body, our health and reputation? |

A13538 | How doe the deceitfull bewitchings of this world at this day, winde into men professing the Gospell? |

A13538 | How know you that? |

A13538 | How many, of vvhich he hath let vs know the pardon? |
A13538 | How may I know that my sorrow is from God? |

A13538 | How shall I know whether my sorrow be godly sorrow, or no? |
A13538 | How strange did Christ shew himselfe to the woman of Canaan? |
A13538 | How thankefull would we bee to that man, that would put himselfe betweene vs and some deadly danger? |
A13538 | How then shall God be iust, who hath said, that he will laugh at such, when their sorrow commeth? |
A13538 | How vvardeth he vs all the day long, feedes vs, and leades vs in our going in and out? |
A13538 | How was the poore widdowes oile increased, when shee sowed mercie to Elias in his want? |
A13538 | How? |
A13538 | I am then no godly man: for I haue prayed long, and God will not bee found; must I not feare my estate? |
A13538 | If Abraham had considered the counsell of Sarah, would hee haue taken Agar into his bosome? |
A13538 | If Eue had considered of the Serpents words, had she, and had we by her been such losers? |

A13538 | If weakenesses in his children, what shall wickednesse in his enemies? |
A13538 | If wee professe our selues the Sonnes of God, how are we so rough against our brethren, so without pittie and charitable disposition? |
A13538 | If you, being euill, can giue good things to your children, how much more will your heauenly Father? |
A13538 | Ignorant, while they dispute of knowledge? |

A13538 | Is not this a brand taken out of the fire? |
A13538 | Is the godly man he, that shall pray and find mercy? |
A13538 | Is this cruell religion of God? |
A13538 | Is this so? |
A13538 | Is this the returne of thy prayer? |
A13538 | It is the troubled spirit that God respects, and at whom else doth the Lord looke? |
A13538 | Iudge therefore of thy selfe and others with a righteous iudgement: if heauen approoue thee, care not if earth cast thee out? |
A13538 | Know thine iniquitie: How? |
A13538 | Lastly, whom deales Dauid withall, but obstinate and wilfull sinners, vvho are no better then corrupt and brutish nature made them? |
A13538 | Lay it in honor; what a vanishing thing is that, like the footsteps of a ship in the Sea, carried with a strong gale? |
A13538 | Lay it in wealth, they haue wings; and when they fly away, so doth thy happinesse: why doest thou trust a fugitiue seruant? |

A13538 | Now he begins to consider what a wofull estate he was in, he thinkes of his fathers house: but with what face can he behold the face of his father? |
A13538 | Now, lest they should say, We haue preuailed, and, Where is now their God? |
A13538 | Numbers of men neuer finde any want of God, they finde the want of health and wealth, of friends and meanes: many say, Who will shew vs any good? |

A13538 | Of all these in generall will one day bee said, Who required these things at your hands? |
A13538 | Of what religion were the Egyptians that kept vnder the Israelites so tyrannically, but barbarous, wicked, and idolatrous? |
A13538 | Oh but then all shall bee well, if all these mercies shall compasse him that trusts in God; for, who trusts not in God? |
A13538 | Oh how excellent is thy mercy? |
A13538 | Oh( saith one) he hates me, it is I that he reproues; What needes all this adoe? |
A13538 | Oh, but it may continue long, and what needes such haste? |
A13538 | Oh, how vnmercifull are they, that make but a iest of mens sinnes? |
A13538 | Oh, saith the world, this is not the child of God: Why? |
A13538 | Oh, what a deale of labour vvould it saue vs, if men vvere able and vvilling to apply doctrine to themselues? |
A13538 | Oh, what hath he to doe with me? |
A13538 | Or is he slaine according to the slaughter of them that were slaine by him,& c? |
A13538 | Or is this glasse a bright and glorious light, as some say? |
A13538 | Or that horrible massacre of the Christians in France, the like whereof was neuer seene in any Nation? |
A13538 | Our great men vnder Kings vvould haue said so, but Dauid put it vp; and indeede, where had he beene but for Nathans plaine dealing? |
A13538 | Peter could not iustifie the quantity of his loue, when Christ asked him this question; Peter, louest thou me more then these? |
A13538 | Secondly, If wee be so happie in Priuatiue mercies, what shall we be in Positiue? |
A13538 | Secondly, Why doth he name these creatures, the Horse and the Mule, and not the Lyon or any other? |
A13538 | Secondly, against the light and checkes of conscience, and is this nothing? |
A13538 | Secondly, doest thou finde the will present with thee? |
A13538 | Secondly, he onely can properly forgiue sinne: Who is a God like vnto thee, that passest by the sinnes of thy people, saith the holy man? |
A13538 | Secondly, how comes the body to be troubled by the minde? |
A13538 | Secondly, how doe wee harpe vpon our wants more then our receits, so to depriue God of his glorie, and our selues of comfort? |
A13538 | Secondly, how partiall are wee in our thankesgiuing? |
A13538 | Secondly, if the sorrow of the godly for sinne be not alwaies godly sorrow, what shall we thinke of the wicked mans sorrow? |
A13538 | Secondly, is not the Word a Sword? |
A13538 | Secondly, must a man set himselfe against himselfe in his confessions? |
A13538 | Secondly, must we giue an account of euery idle word? |
A13538 | Secondly, spirituall things; euen in these also how hath God compassed vs with mercies euen for the present? |
A13538 | Secondly, walke as a man released of thy heauy burden, and now at ease and liberty: How thankfull was Dauid when he escaped the burden of one sinne? |
A13538 | Secondly, what a wonderfull mercie shall compasse vs in our immediate vnion and coniunction with Christ our Head, by which we shall be like him? |
A13538 | See we not, that our soules in their swaruing from God, are like bones beside the ioynt? |
A13538 | Seeke and yee shall finde; if the godly seeke and find not? |
A13538 | Shall I beleeue the greater, and not beleeue the lesse? |
A13538 | Shall I hide me vnder the Saints wings? |
A13538 | Shall I not drinke of the cup that my Father hath giuen me to drinke? |
A13538 | Shall he giue me heauen, and not earth? |
A13538 | Shall the Lord himselfe be pressed vnder the burden of thy sinnes, as a Cart laden with sheaues, and art not thou? |
A13538 | Shall there be euill in the Citie, and the Lord hath not done it? |
A13538 | Shall we cast a pearle to a swine? |
A13538 | Shall we not pray for daily bread, because we haue bread? |
A13538 | Should an Husbandman measure himselfe by his seede- time, what is there but labour and losse? |
A13538 | Sixthly, if God should bestow remission of sinnes in generall to all, what neede is there of any grace, what vse of the feare of God, of faith,& c? |
A13538 | So Amnon was merry in his brother Absoloms House, but what cause had hee, seeing men were appointed presently to kill him? |
A13538 | So in Peter, how was he ouermastered by his flesh? |
A13538 | Some of our ignorant people thanke God they can serue God and say their Prayers as well as any: but what Prayers? |
A13538 | Sorrowes of the godly like the sorrow of a woman in trauell why? |
A13538 | The Corinths might haue said, What haue wee to doe with the examples of those, that liued in the Old Testament? |
A13538 | The Egyptians were terrible enemies to the Church; did God euer smite his Church as he smote them? |
A13538 | The blinde Iewes could say, Who can forgiue sinnes but God? |
A13538 | These men say to the Ministers, as the Sodomites did to Lot, Shall hee iudge and rule? |
A13538 | Thinke we not, that Iosephs brethren held on a forme of Religion, while their sinne troubled them not for so many yeeres? |
A13538 | Thinke yee that those, on whom the Tower of Siloam fell, were greater debters then the rest? |

A13538 | Thirdly, a change of the whole man in affection and action: what a change was wrought in the Iaylour vpon his conuersion? |

A13538 | Thirdly, if thou diddest hate these sinnes and errors as enemies, why doest thou not raise thy power against them? |
A13538 | Thirdly, is not the sorrow of godly men, alwaies godly sorrow, out of which they can reape ioy and comfort? |
A13538 | Thirdly, thou that owest the least, doest thou not owe too much already? |
A13538 | Thirdly, who can deny,( that doth but looke on the externall shape of man and beast) but that GOD hath put a plaine distinction betweene them? |
A13538 | Thirdly, why hath the Lord thought good to send both sanctified men, and vnsanctified? |

A13538 | Thou that art of the frozen generation, that needest a Boanerges, a sonne of thunder, why expectest thou a Bar- Ionah? |
A13538 | Thou that hast not found God vpon thy prayer, tell me, Hast thou prayed, that God would heare thee therein, and direct thee to pray aright? |
A13538 | Thou that teachest another, doest not thou teach thy selfe? |
A13538 | Thus Dauid often complaines, Will the Lord absent himselfe for euer? |

A13538 | Will they deliuer vs? |
A13538 | Wilt thou auoide the flames of natural fire, by kindling the fire of Gods wrath against thee, yea, the flames of hell within thee? |
A13538 | Wilt thou being a man put off manhood, and lay aside thy minde and the powers, which God hath giuen thee to distinguish thee from a beast? |
A13538 | Wilt thou in so small a thing incurre the Lords so high displeasure? |
A13538 | Wilt thou saue thy life, by flying from Christ, who is the way and the life? |
A13538 | Would wee laugh, to see a man pulling a mill- stone vpon himselfe, and crushing himselfe all to pieces? |

A13538 | and how can hee but see, who is all an eye? |
A13538 | and if the righteous scarcely be saued, where shall the vngodly and the sinner appeare? |
A13538 | and indeed, what cause is there, that he should be so bid? |
A13538 | and is it now no other then a make- bate? |
A13538 | and miserable Creatures, while without it they grope at true blessednesse? |
A13538 | and must thou therefore depart from thy secret place? |
A13538 | and not for good, and for giuing? |
A13538 | and not of euery idle song, which is hurtfull to our selues and others, and keepes out better? |
A13538 | and now doeth it serue to breed them? |
A13538 | and now to impaire the trueth? |
A13538 | and shall I neuer bee remembred? |
A13538 | and shall not they bee saued, for whom Christ dyed? |
A13538 | and shall not wee labour to make men loue and like the truth? |
A13538 | and shall prophane wretches, that haue set their faces all their dayes against heauen, thinke to bee heard in the day of their distresse and death? |
A13538 | and sometimes God giues more then our request, and is this a denyall? |
A13538 | and take no time to repaire himselfe, and hurts sustained by inconsideratenesse? |
A13538 | and what experience haue our owne soules, how he daily forgets and forgiues innumerable sinnes? |

A13538 | and when hee spoke, what rough and churlish words gaue he to a woman in that distresse, calling her a Dogge? |
A13538 | and who doth this but Nebuchadnezzar the head of this Babylon? |
A13538 | and whom haue I in comparison of thee? |
A13538 | and why should God vse him in the one chiefe ende of his calling, and not in the other? |
A13538 | and will he be neuer more intreated? |
A13538 | and will he neglect to saue and preserue my bodie? |
A13538 | and will he neuer be more intreated? |
A13538 | and will hee not beate backe the endeuours and vniust practices of my enemies? |
A13538 | and wilt not thou let a drop fall on thy brother? |
A13538 | and yet, what good guide in the Ministrie meeteth not with such vnnaturall dealing from naturall and vngodly men? |
A13538 | and, how can he haue any elsewhere if not from that? |
A13538 | because he loued good men? |
A13538 | by what pattents? |
A13538 | can a man be thus perswaded, and yet not feele it? |
A13538 | can not God, without the condition of repentance and sorrow and confession of sinne, remit sinne, and conferre fauour vpon sinners? |

A13538 | doest thou preach against drunkennesse, and art an intemperate person, a companion of drunkards? |
A13538 | doth not the Lord loue those whom he chasteneth? |
A13538 | euery man must carry his owne burden: how then can Christ? |
A13538 | hast not thou also abused thy health, peace,& c. and thereby forfeited them? |
A13538 | hast thou denyed thy selfe, that whatsoeuer the Spirit in the Word suggesteth, it is thy whole heart to vndertake it? |
A13538 | hast thou more sense of the groning of a beast, then of thy brother? |
A13538 | hath God forgotten to bee mercifull? |
A13538 | hath he forgotten to be mercifull? |
A13538 | hath hee shut vp his tender mercies in displeasure? |
A13538 | hath my Lord and head foiled the Deuill for me, troden Satan vnder my feet, and trampled vpon all spirituall enmities for mee? |
A13538 | haue I a promise for that I pray for? |
A13538 | haue not the enemies with their violent inundations come neere, yea, and almost ouerturned the whole Church? |
A13538 | he was of another temper, and said, Dost thou enuie for me? |
A13538 | hee that doeth the greater, will not hee doe the lesse? |
A13538 | how comes it to passe, that the godly feele such sorrow in sinne pardoned, and the wicked feele nothing in sinne vnpardoned? |
A13538 | how could they forget these, at least so soone? |
A13538 | how did hee roare night and day vnder the heauie hand of God? |
A13538 | how did his moysture drie vp as in the drought of Summer? |
A13538 | how farre from the disposition of the godly, who thinke nothing so vile and hatefull as sinne? |
A13538 | how long wilt thou forget me? |
A13538 | how many sickemen on their beds haue in their affliction sought God? |
A13538 | how miserable in not seeing their miserie? |
A13538 | how quickely then would they come to Gods mercy- gate? |
A13538 | how shall we be compassed with them? |
A13538 | how then can men reape any ioy out of carnall and contrary meanes? |
A13538 | how vnconformable to Gods Law, that sets an eternall curse vpon the head of the least sinne? |
A13538 | how were his bones dryed and broken? |
A13538 | how will this stand with Gods Iustice? |
A13538 | if Christ will confesse thee, let thy friends deny thee? |
A13538 | if God iustifie, who can condemne? |
A13538 | if assurance of remission follow sound confession, what shall I thinke of my selfe? |
A13538 | if infirmities be so lashed, what shall rebellions? |
A13538 | in what estate? |
A13538 | is it because they hate the sinne? |
A13538 | is not God pleased with that religion, which he hath prospered so long? |
A13538 | is the Word in his mouth strong meate; and can not it be milke too? |
A13538 | is this a forgiuenesse of a debt, to exact it wholly? |
A13538 | it lies euery- where vpon thee: and of actuall sinnes without number? |
A13538 | may not I hope my sinnes are pardoned? |
A13538 | may wee not ioy in outward things, as meat, drinke, wife, children, wealth, honour? |
A13538 | must Gods children heare the Law applyed? |
A13538 | must it not sinke? |
A13538 | neuer felt doubting nor trouble of conscience? |
A13538 | nor torment of heart? |
A13538 | not to require the sinne, not to inflict the penaltie? |
A13538 | of Marie Magdalen possessed with seuen deuils? |
A13538 | of many of Gods children bewitched and vexed with the deuill? |
A13538 | oh goc and meet him? |
A13538 | oh, what ioy and delight shall there bee in the Kings marriage, and in the meeting of so many good friends together? |
A13538 | or can hee bee present where euer the beames of the Sunne are? |
A13538 | or fuller, because many eate? |
A13538 | or how can he be heard in mercy, to whom mercy belongs not? |
A13538 | or if hee doe, how can he be iust? |
A13538 | or is there a graue in thy heart, neuer full? |
A13538 | or shall not we say, Forgiue vs our sinnes, because wee beleeue the remission of our sinnes? |
A13538 | or that the frost- bitten rootes, and blasted blades should neuer spring forth to flower or seed? |
A13538 | or were hee not mad, who should therefore refuse it? |
A13538 | or what bond of theirs haue I broken, which they can release mee of? |
A13538 | or who can thinke it acceptable vnto God, seeing the godly, the mercifull man onely can performe acceptable seruice? |
A13538 | or, if they should not haue beleeued and repented, had they beene condemned for not beleeuing a lye? |
A13538 | or, seeing hee is neuer absent, how can hee bee found? |
A13538 | or, what comfort can he haue in God, who is not in couenant with him? |
A13538 | shall a man consider of his houses, rents, fields or garments? |
A13538 | surely no, wee may not thinke so, and yet he said, My God, my God, why hast thou for saken me? |
A13538 | that he should aske and not receiue, that asketh amisse? |
A13538 | that he that turnes his eare from the Law, should haue Gods eare turned from him? |
A13538 | that he, that is a prophane mocker of God, God should mocke him in his destruction? |
A13538 | the true cause is, that the light thereof may not discouer their workes of darknesse: but what say they? |
A13538 | their meat and drinke to riot and excesse, as though the Lord required no other returne, or would require no other reckoning? |
A13538 | their wealth and calling to iniustice, coozenage, couetousnesse? |
A13538 | they returne againe, because the guilt remaines: how should a man repent of that sinne, which hee will not see, lest he should sorrow? |
A13538 | thou that preachest against couetousnesse, art thou a griper neuer satisfied? |
A13538 | to make it a preseruatiue from many great sinnes, which the wicked daily commit, open and secret? |
A13538 | to make it a sound stay and comfort, to support them in all their troubles; wherein else they must needs sinke? |
A13538 | to make it vnto them a rule of faith, and a rule of life, able to make the man of God perfect to euery good worke? |
A13538 | to put it into their handes as a sword to cut off Satans temptations? |
A13538 | to what vse could the promises of the Gospell serue? |
A13538 | was it once profitable 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉; to improue? |
A13538 | was not Dauid ouer head and eares in them? |
A13538 | was not Noah and Lot drunke, and many good men besides? |
A13538 | was not Noah neere them, and they neere him? |
A13538 | was not the Sabboth made for man, and not man for the Sabboth? |
A13538 | were dangers toward? |
A13538 | what a staffe and strength cast they out of their hands, who heedlesly passe by Gods gracious dealing with them? |
A13538 | what are they? |
A13538 | what could the Lord doe more to make it easie and plaine, and fit for instruction, then he had done? |
A13538 | what grim countenance and contempt shewed he by his silence, not vouchsafing to speak to her? |
A13538 | what say you to Iob and his children? |
A13538 | what strength were in the curses of the Law, that the soule that sinnes, shall die? |
A13538 | what vse of the prayer of Christ for beleeuers, that his Father would keepe them in the truth? |
A13538 | when is it? |
A13538 | when wee doe not keepe Gods Commandements: but how shall we know that we keepe them? |
A13538 | while I was yet an enemie and a sinner, God hath reconciled me by the death of his Sonne; how should hee now cast mee off being reconciled? |
A13538 | who can remit a debt, but he to whom it is due? |
A13538 | who is a God like thee, that passest by the iniquitie of thy people? |
A13538 | why did he put such difference betweene men, that hee would not so much as pray for the World? |
A13538 | will you bee so precise and foolish? |
A13538 | will you in a kinde of singularitie lose both your pleasure and reputation? |
A13538 | wilt thou auoide the sword of man by an euill conscience, which is a sharper sword within thy bowels, striking through, and pearsing thine owne soule? |
A44697 | ( else how by dwelling in love, do they dwell in God?) |
A44697 | 245 Considering, There is a taking delight in one thing more than another, and should be something that is a known good? |
A44697 | A concealment and disguise of an heart inwardly bad and naught? |
A44697 | A disjointing and unhinging of the best and noblest part of Gods Creation from its station and rest, its proper basis and center? |
A44697 | A shattering and breaking asunder the bond between rational appetite and the First Good? |
A44697 | A turning all upside down? |
A44697 | Account he waits for your turning to him, as being inclin''d to friendship with you; Otherwise would vengeance have suffered you so long to live? |
A44697 | Again, Would you not be justly taken to disaffect one whose temper is ungrateful, whose disposition and way is unpleasing to you? |
A44697 | And a person of such worth and accomplishments as I, be thus brought down into the dust? |
A44697 | And again, Can you be confident that so much as you suppose, was true? |
A44697 | And bethink your selves, What would you then be esteemed? |
A44697 | And can it be thought the love of the great and blessed God should signifie less? |
A44697 | And can your ignorance of God be excusable or innocent? |
A44697 | And consider, Is it not a grievous thing to you? |
A44697 | And do we believe that when he hath won a person to place his delight and take pleasure in himself, He will requite him with a mischief? |
A44697 | And do we need it to a Life of Delight? |
A44697 | And do you not now see one to be delighted in? |
A44697 | And dost thou not yet see the horrid vileness of thy own heart in all this? |
A44697 | And doth it not then naturally aim at him and tend towards him? |
A44697 | And doth not that make your matter much worse? |
A44697 | And doth not your unaccustomedness to this blessed exercise resist the Tendency of that new nature? |
A44697 | And doth this import no enmity? |
A44697 | And have you not reason to be ashamed you have not known him better, and to better purpose? |
A44697 | And how absurd and vain is it to have our hearts set upon that which is not? |
A44697 | And how becoming is it of a man to have spent so much of his time in doing nothing? |
A44697 | And how can the relishable sweetness of gracious principles and dispositions signifie Gods being to be enjoyed or delighted in? |
A44697 | And how doth the temper of your heart and your practice, while you take not actual, ordinary delight in God, clash and jar with your profession? |
A44697 | And how full of guilt is your not- delighting in God upon this account? |
A44697 | And how highly doth this increase the offence? |
A44697 | And how is he so, when you seldom have a delightful thought of him, or look to him with any pleasure? |
A44697 | And how is that but by often thinking of him, as being a great part( and fundamental to all the rest) of what can be meant by this abode? |
A44697 | And how long will it be ere[ they believe me], for all the signs which I have shewed among them? |
A44697 | And if now he say to thee; After all this couldst thou take no pleasure in me? |
A44697 | And if some greater breach hereupon ensue between God and you, what becomes of your delight in him? |
A44697 | And if we should suppose the new creature alike maimed and defective, will there not be a proportionable diminution of its delight? |
A44697 | And in which respect it may fitly be said to thee, Dost thou thus requite the Lord, O foolish Creature, and unwise? |
A44697 | And is it not most vilely unnatural that thy spirit should be so sullenly averse to him, who is pleased to be stiled the Father of Spirits? |
A44697 | And is not that delightsome to be increased daily with the increases of God? |
A44697 | And is not that your case? |
A44697 | And is there another way of having them composed, and of restoring delightful friendly converse, than by your seeking his Pardon, and his granting it? |
A44697 | And is this a wise provision for Eternity? |
A44697 | And is this your love to him, or delight in him? |
A44697 | And it may be many such may take themselves for godly persons and lovers of God, and be mistaken as well as you; And what will that mend your cause? |
A44697 | And labour in this way to have that delight increased to that degree, that it may cease to be a question or doubt with you, Do I delight in God or no? |
A44697 | And now, Will we assume the confidence to tell God we think on him all that we can? |
A44697 | And ought it not to fill your Souls with horror, when you consider, you take no delight in the best and sovereign Good? |
A44697 | And ought you not to smite upon the thigh then, and say, What have I done? |
A44697 | And rather chuse to suffer the pains of death than of labour, by which your Soul might yet live? |
A44697 | And shall I not add[ The Love of God?] |
A44697 | And shall this be called too delighting in God? |
A44697 | And so that their pure Gospel, as they call it, is another Gospel, nay( because there can not be another) no Gospel? |
A44697 | And the reason is plainly assigned in the foregoing words, Will he delight himself in the Almighty? |
A44697 | And then how far are we from our mark? |
A44697 | And were those only customary forms with you, and words of course? |
A44697 | And what a bondage( as well as incongruity) were that relation without delight? |
A44697 | And what cause canst thou pretend of disaffection towards him? |
A44697 | And what do you mean by it, or seem to expect? |
A44697 | And what durst thou who knowest God, or rather art known of him, neglect so great and substantial a Duty? |
A44697 | And what else have you to delight in? |
A44697 | And what else is it, but somewhat communicated and imparted immediately from God to such? |
A44697 | And what is it better to pretend to it to no purpose? |
A44697 | And what is it? |
A44697 | And what is loving God with all our mind, so expresly mentioned in that great summary of our duty towards him? |
A44697 | And what is that an absurdity that under the name of Delighting in God, the several acts and exercises of Religion besides should be comprehended? |
A44697 | And what is that? |
A44697 | And what is the course they take hereupon? |
A44697 | And what is the reason of this so great difference? |
A44697 | And what need is there of apprehending its method to be quite another in its comforting- work? |
A44697 | And what need of that, while yet there is one way to avoid it? |
A44697 | And what now is to be done in this case? |
A44697 | And what proposition is there which a regenerate person can assent to, but one who is not regenerate may assent to it also? |
A44697 | And what shall your Religion serve for, that will not answer these purposes? |
A44697 | And what state and temper of spirit would be sutable to that supposition? |
A44697 | And what then? |
A44697 | And what though you think not of many to whom you bear no ill will, nor have any converse with many such; Is it enough to bear no ill will to God? |
A44697 | And what was that? |
A44697 | And what will you say to the great obligations which the love and kindness of God have laid upon you? |
A44697 | And what, Did they therefore dejectedly languish and despond, and give themselves up to sorrow and despair? |
A44697 | And what, do you find this? |
A44697 | And what, will you take up with that delusive unconversible shadow, or be content to embrace the stiff and breathless carcase that remains? |
A44697 | And what, wilt thou delight in a God that is not thine? |
A44697 | And where is that blessedness of which ye spake? |
A44697 | And whither tends it? |
A44697 | And why should this temper of spirit in the clearer light of the Gospel be look''t upon as an unattainable thing? |
A44697 | And why should you not be resolved in this point? |
A44697 | And why towards me? |
A44697 | And will you dream and slumber all your days? |
A44697 | And yet how few are there whose spirits are formed hereby to any seriousness agreeable to that perswasion? |
A44697 | Are not some things grateful and agreeable to you, in which you can and do take complacency? |
A44697 | Are these all that thou designest, or will mind to do for thy Soul? |
A44697 | Are these like well to supply the place of living Religion? |
A44697 | Are we to suspend the exercise of this duty till we have gotten the difficult case resolved? |
A44697 | Are you altered? |
A44697 | Are you no more concerned to mind God and converse with him, than with the man you never knew, or had to do with? |
A44697 | Are you under so much obligation to any? |
A44697 | Are you wo nt to displease your selves to please him, or cross your own will to do his? |
A44697 | Are you yet to learn, that a reasonable Soul needs the fulness of God to make it happy, and that there is no other God but one? |
A44697 | Art thou yet an harmless innocent creature, an honest well- meaning man for all this? |
A44697 | As if he had too little kindness for such as you would have him favour, and too much for others; Judging his love and hatred by false measures? |
A44697 | As if the enquiry were, What it is that I desire really to enjoy when I desire to enjoy a friend? |
A44697 | Being upon both those accounts( as well as that it resembles him, and is his living Image) called a participation of the Divine Nature? |
A44697 | Bethink your selves, is not the temper of your spirits just such Godward as it was always wo nt to be, without any remarkable turn or alteration? |
A44697 | But are not all these truly Delectable? |
A44697 | But because this brings us but where we were; Let it be further enquired, what then is your business with God, or what would you have of him? |
A44697 | But do you think so to shift and wave the obligation of an universal Law upon mankind, and all reasonable nature? |
A44697 | But for what purpose are we to have that apprehension? |
A44697 | But how can this delighting in God( communicating himself) be our duty? |
A44697 | But how little, and in how low a capacity, didst thou contribute to his being in comparison of what the great God did to thine? |
A44697 | But how shall we go about it? |
A44697 | But if you do not, What do you think alienation from the life of God will come to at last? |
A44697 | But if you think that horrid, and resolve to own something or other of Religion; Will you here use your understanding, and consider? |
A44697 | But is he out of the sight of your minds? |
A44697 | But is it fit it should be always thus? |
A44697 | But is this honest dealing? |
A44697 | But now before that new birth take place in the spirit of man, it wants but knows not what; craves indeterminately( who will shew us any good?) |
A44697 | But so we shall bring our whole Religion within the compass of this one thing? |
A44697 | But to this I say, Was this all that your Profession was in it self apt, and by you designed to signifie? |
A44697 | But what are your hearts most apt to delight in? |
A44697 | But what did he lastly aim at in this? |
A44697 | But what pretence can there be for such dealing with the God of Truth? |
A44697 | But when he represents his Love himself( as who but God can represent the Love of God? |
A44697 | But where is this temper of spirit to be found? |
A44697 | But will God indeed dwell on the earth? |
A44697 | But you should bethink your self, What a wretch am I, that am so ill- inclin''d? |
A44697 | Can he be a God to you that is not acknowledg''d by you as your very best, the universal, and absolutely all- comprehending good? |
A44697 | Can there be any dispute or doubt in the case, when there is but one thing to be done, besides yeilding ones self to be miserable for ever? |
A44697 | Can this stand with delight in him? |
A44697 | Can you allow your selves so to interpret his Covenant, and give this as the summary account of the tenor of it? |
A44697 | Can you approve your own way? |
A44697 | Can you delight in an enemy? |
A44697 | Can you find nothing wherein vainly to trifle, but the sacred things of the Great God of Heaven, and the eternal concernments of your own Soul? |
A44697 | Can you forbear with gratitude and joy to acknowledg and own it to him, that it is of his own hand that you do this? |
A44697 | Can you say, Lord, for thy sake I refrain the things to which my heart inclines? |
A44697 | Canst thou be content to look wistly on him, as one unrelated and a stranger? |
A44697 | Carries it not in it most horrid contumely and indignity to the most high God? |
A44697 | Consider, Is this still your case? |
A44697 | Consider, What doth your trust in God signifie, more than the sound of the Name? |
A44697 | Could He delight in such as you, and can not you in him? |
A44697 | Could you decline doing so without putting a slight upon his love, who is infinite in what he is, and who is love? |
A44697 | Could you have the confidence to put your self upon conversing with him as at former times, without such a preface? |
A44697 | Dare you think of throwing off his yoke? |
A44697 | Did you never find it good for you, in this way, to draw nigh to God? |
A44697 | Did you never try experiments for your pleasure? |
A44697 | Do we as we longer live by him ow him less? |
A44697 | Do we need further to be invited to a Life of delight? |
A44697 | Do we need to be prest with arguments to chuse delightful and wholesom food, rather than gall and wormwood, or even very poyson? |
A44697 | Do you aim at obeying him in these things? |
A44697 | Do you bear goodwill to him whose reproach and dishonour you are not concern''d for, yea, whom you stick not to dishonour and reproach? |
A44697 | Do you dislike thoughts of God? |
A44697 | Do you find your heart sluggish and indispos''d to any such transaction with God and Christ? |
A44697 | Do you love him whom upon all occasions you most causlesly displease; whose offence you reckon nothing of? |
A44697 | Do you not aim at a life of eternal delights with God? |
A44697 | Do you not allow your self to be licentious, earthly, vain, proud, wrathful, revengeful, though you know it will offend him? |
A44697 | Do you not desire to be better thought of? |
A44697 | Do you not disobey the known will of God in your ordinary practice without regret? |
A44697 | Do you not find your selves herein to have offended against that? |
A44697 | Do you not find, that so a wicked man( his enemy) is branded and distinguisht, God is not in all his thoughts? |
A44697 | Do you pretend to him, and know him not? |
A44697 | Do you suppose it possible, to delight in God and not think of him? |
A44697 | Does it not tend to an unlawful gratifying of the flesh, and fulfilling some lusts thereof? |
A44697 | Dost thou not see then how thou cancellest and nullifiest the obligation of all Laws, while thou hast no delight in God? |
A44697 | Dost thou think this will pass for a little offence in the solemn judgment of the great day that is drawing on? |
A44697 | Doth it decline and draw back? |
A44697 | Doth it purifie it, and check your ill inclinations, in any thing wherein they should be countermanded upon the credit of his Word? |
A44697 | Doth it quiet your heart, in reference to any affairs you pretend to commit to him? |
A44697 | Doth not He know the method and way wherein they are to be conveyed? |
A44697 | Doth not that imply that it was with the Psalmist a designed thing to meditate on God? |
A44697 | Doth not this bring us to delight in our selves? |
A44697 | Doth the Holy Ghost himself prescribe to us impertinently, in order to our obtaining of his own imparted influences? |
A44697 | For by what worse name can we call any thing than enmity to God? |
A44697 | For can men be happy in him in whom they take no delight? |
A44697 | For how can I rejoice in that whereof I have yet a doubt, whether it be what it seems or no? |
A44697 | For how just is it, to impute to it what it naturally causes, and lay its own impure and viperous births at its own door? |
A44697 | For is it our duty that he communicate himself in this way to us? |
A44697 | For is not any one more wicked according as he is more strongly inclin''d to wickedness and averse to what is good? |
A44697 | For it is an appeal to common reason in the case; as if it had been said, Can any man think that such a ones Religion will be lasting? |
A44697 | For let the question be put to such a person, Do you desire such a thing though God judg it will be hurtful to you or unfit for you? |
A44697 | For what Scripture saith so? |
A44697 | For what, are these things God? |
A44697 | For wherein is it less? |
A44697 | Further, Do you not acknowledg the blessed God to be the best and most excellent Good? |
A44697 | Gods Essence? |
A44697 | Great blindness and ignorance of God; For is it possible any should have known and not have loved him? |
A44697 | Had such opportunity of knowing him, and yet be ignorant? |
A44697 | Hast thou no need of quickening influence from God? |
A44697 | Hath he not spared you, when it was in his power to crush you at pleasure? |
A44697 | Hath his prohibition any restraining force upon your hearts? |
A44697 | Have I any cause to quarrel at this? |
A44697 | Have not those been your best hours, wherein you could freely solace your selves in him? |
A44697 | Have not your thoughts of God been few? |
A44697 | Have not your thoughts of Him been low and mean, such as have imported light esteem? |
A44697 | Have not your thoughts of him been slight and transient? |
A44697 | Have there not been perverse reasonings, with dislike of his Methods of Government over men in this present state? |
A44697 | Have they not been hard thoughts; full of censure, and misjudging of his Nature, Counsels, Ways and Works? |
A44697 | Have they not been overly superficial thoughts? |
A44697 | Have ye forgotten, that ye ever thus tasted how gracious the Lord was? |
A44697 | Have you Faith in God? |
A44697 | Have you any hope God will deal in a peculiar way with you from all men, and make the other world the place of your first heart- change? |
A44697 | Have you not been long at his mercy? |
A44697 | Have you not disbelieved the revelation he hath given of his Nature, and express declarations of his mind and purpose touching these matters? |
A44697 | Have you not in this neglect run counter to such instruction? |
A44697 | Have you not much the more to answer for upon this account? |
A44697 | Have you not( against his plain word) thought him irreconcilable, and averse to the accepting of any atonement for you? |
A44697 | Have you repented your Choice? |
A44697 | Have you that dependence on any Friend? |
A44697 | How cheap is the expence of a thought? |
A44697 | How contrary is this omission to what by solemn vow and astipulation you have bound your selves to? |
A44697 | How directly opposite is it to the Law of God? |
A44697 | How do things stand between him and you? |
A44697 | How do you, in this, carry towards the blessed God? |
A44697 | How far are you from that temper, Whom have I in heaven but thee, and whom do I desire on earth besides thee? |
A44697 | How grateful is the relish of this apprehension, both in respect of what it, in it self, imports, and what it is the root and cause of? |
A44697 | How long will this people provoke me? |
A44697 | How manifestly impossible is it, if there were not such a Good, that otherwise any thing else should ever have been good, or been at all? |
A44697 | How perverse a delight is that? |
A44697 | How plain and certain is this? |
A44697 | How strangely uncouth is it? |
A44697 | How tumultuous and disorderly a thing this your disaffection is? |
A44697 | How tumultuous and disorderly a thing this your disaffection to God is? |
A44697 | How unlike have yours been to such thoughts? |
A44697 | How vain then is that Religion by which we can neither please God nor profit our selves? |
A44697 | How variously and with how mighty demonstration hath that love exprest and evidence''t it self? |
A44697 | However, comparing what you sometime were with what you are, what difference do you observe? |
A44697 | I shall thus make nothing of my self: And what must all my natural or acquired excellencies go just for nothing? |
A44697 | If he should repent, In what case were you? |
A44697 | If not, Why take you not pleasure? |
A44697 | If not, we have no enjoyment; If any thing be, what is it? |
A44697 | If that be once understood, Hath it not in it self invitation enough? |
A44697 | If therefore it be inquired, Wherein the delight of this more imperfect sort doth consist? |
A44697 | If thou hast been always kind and indulgent, full of paternal affection towards him, Wouldst thou not think him a vile miscreant? |
A44697 | If you now begin not to live to God, when will you? |
A44697 | In what posture then are your affairs towards him? |
A44697 | Is he far from any one of us? |
A44697 | Is he not as much our Maker as he was theirs? |
A44697 | Is it a likely means of refining and bettering our spirits? |
A44697 | Is it fit to receive so much kindness with neglect? |
A44697 | Is it indeed so horrid a thing to disavow all Religion? |
A44697 | Is it less evident? |
A44697 | Is it not a greater thing that he is God, than that he is yours? |
A44697 | Is it not a merciful vouchsafement that the holy God allows you to place your delight on him, and invites you to it? |
A44697 | Is it not from God? |
A44697 | Is it not now as true, that the Lord reigneth, and is high above all the earth, and exalted far above all gods? |
A44697 | Is it not thus with you Godward? |
A44697 | Is it reasonable that he who is our Life, and our All, should never be thought on, but now and then, as it were by chance, and on the by? |
A44697 | Is it that reasoning is more liable to error and mistake? |
A44697 | Is not he thy Father —? |
A44697 | Is not the blessed God acknowledged to be the best good? |
A44697 | Is not the meditation of him with you an unwonted thing? |
A44697 | Is not this as sure and evident as any thing your senses could inform you of? |
A44697 | Is not your very profession then meer dissimulation and a lie? |
A44697 | Is that become no Duty which is the very sum and comprehension of all duties? |
A44697 | Is that ingenuous towards a Friend, or dutiful towards a Father or a Lord? |
A44697 | Is the matter less important? |
A44697 | Is there indeed such a Principle in you? |
A44697 | Is there not a real Delight to be had in them? |
A44697 | Is this a matter always to be waved? |
A44697 | Is this a small thing with you? |
A44697 | Is this a time to roll your self upon your slothful bed, and say, Soul, take thine ease, even upon the pits brink? |
A44697 | Is this the worse or the better? |
A44697 | It is a conviction against you, that you are of humane race, till it can be evidenc''t you are born from above, and are become new creatures? |
A44697 | It is the sense of holy Souls, Whom have I in Heaven but thee? |
A44697 | It may be again said; But if God be thus to be delighted in, how can delighting in him be upon such terms our duty? |
A44697 | It may be said, Doth not all this tend to bring us, instead of delighting in God, to delight in our selves? |
A44697 | It may be your sleeping Conscience did not find your self to offend: But do you not find your self to have offended it, now beginning to awake? |
A44697 | It''s answered, But you disrelish not the remembrance of a Friend; Do you not the thoughts of God? |
A44697 | Know you another way to be happy? |
A44697 | Let men value thee for these, to whom thereby thou shewest some respect; But shall he, who in the mean time knows thou bearest none to him? |
A44697 | Make a stand, and bethink your selves; Can you justifie your carriage towards him whom you have taken to be your God? |
A44697 | Many good works hath he done for thee; For which of these dost thou hate him? |
A44697 | May we do what we will with our thoughts? |
A44697 | Moreover, Who should delight in him but you? |
A44697 | Must you, do you see you must come to this point, of having your delight in God? |
A44697 | Nay, may''st thou not moreover truly say, that thou lovest this base impure earth more than God? |
A44697 | Not to delight in God therefore, What can it be but the very top of Rebellion? |
A44697 | Now hath not that Soul a spring of pleasure within it self, that is in these respects as God would have it be? |
A44697 | Now therefore if you did delight much in God, would you not be pressing hard after him? |
A44697 | O my people, What have I done unto thee? |
A44697 | Only it is to be considered, Do you intend to proceed in any course of Religion, or no? |
A44697 | Or can this deportment agree with habitual and the frequent actual delight in God which is requir''d? |
A44697 | Or can you think it was his meaning, and that he would expect no more from you? |
A44697 | Or didst thou do thy duty herein, by being only inclin''d to do it? |
A44697 | Or have you not been more peccant in your apprehensions of his rules and resolutions for the disposing of men as to their eternal states? |
A44697 | Or if he should be deprived of some of his senses, or natural faculties, so as to be uncapable of some of the more principal functions of life? |
A44697 | Or if it was, did you deal sincerely in that Treaty? |
A44697 | Or must it be done, and never be attempted? |
A44697 | Or that when all by nature are children of wrath, any are by nature lovers of him, so as to love him and be under his wrath both at once? |
A44697 | Or was it fit it should ly dead and bound up in the habitual principle, and not go forth( or very rarely) into act and exercise? |
A44697 | Or were it not great immodesty and impudence to offer at it? |
A44697 | Or would he deceive us by misrepresenting it? |
A44697 | Or would not the inclination, if it were right, infer( or otherwise is it like to last long without) sutable exercise? |
A44697 | Or, is it less consolatory? |
A44697 | Ought it not to cut your heart to find your self convicted herein of a disobedient omission? |
A44697 | Ought not your Experience to have been instructive to you; as it commonly is to men in other matters? |
A44697 | Should not the thoughts of him be pleasant to you from whom you are expecting so great things? |
A44697 | Should not this have obtain''d in thy practice, that ought to run through and animate all the rest? |
A44697 | Surely such conceptions are not impossible to you? |
A44697 | Than which what can be said or supposed more absurd? |
A44697 | That it doth herein no small thing; for is it a small thing to be ascertain''d of Gods fatherly love to us as his own children? |
A44697 | That it is a differencing character of his own people, That they thought on his Name? |
A44697 | That the saying of Esaias the Prophet might be fulfilled which he spake, Lord who hath believed our report? |
A44697 | That thou disaffectest him in whom thou knowest thou shouldst delight? |
A44697 | The knowledg of God, calling upon God, The fear of God,& c. How commonly are these acknowledged to be Paraphrases of Religion? |
A44697 | There is somewhat in you that would work towards God, and you suffer it not; And is that well? |
A44697 | Therefore seriously bethink your selves, Do you delight in God or no? |
A44697 | They are called the Spirit; for when we are caution''d not to quench the Spirit, how can that be understood of the eternal uncreated Spirit himself? |
A44697 | Think whither am I going? |
A44697 | This banishes delight, and drives it far away from them? |
A44697 | This yet more fully answers the enquiry when a person is said to enjoy God; what doth he immediately enjoy? |
A44697 | To be off and on, to say and unsay, that he shall be your God, and that he shall not,( for how is he your God if you delight not in him?) |
A44697 | To love him who had loved you first? |
A44697 | To make us become our own center and rest? |
A44697 | To talk of any difficulty in the matter, is a strange impertinency; for who would oppose difficulty to necessity? |
A44697 | Was not this the case? |
A44697 | Was this indeed your meaning? |
A44697 | We find it natural and pleasant to carry about with us our own living body; but who would endure( how wearisom and loathsom a task were it?) |
A44697 | Well then, is the case altered with you? |
A44697 | Were you not oblig''d to love him back again, who was so much before- hand with you in the matter of love? |
A44697 | What a Soul hast thou that can live upon chaff and air, and be sustained by the wind? |
A44697 | What absurdity the several acts of Religion should be comprehended under Delight in God? |
A44697 | What can any man have greater certainty of, in a meer human way, than all men have that they must dye? |
A44697 | What could hinder you to remember him, if you were so disposed? |
A44697 | What could hinder you, if your heart were inclin''d? |
A44697 | What difference do you observe? |
A44697 | What doth it mean that our Youth is challenged to the remembrance of him? |
A44697 | What fault, that delight runs through Religion? |
A44697 | What good Principle can you have in you God ward if you have not Love to him? |
A44697 | What hath thus carnalized your minds, that you favour only the things of the flesh, and Divine things are tasteless and without relish? |
A44697 | What have I to do any more with the Idols wherewith I was wo nt to provoke thee to jealousie? |
A44697 | What have you made God an unnecessary thing to you, while the Creature, your very Idols, lying vanities, were thought necessary? |
A44697 | What is it then that hath thy delight and love? |
A44697 | What is the difference between loving God, and delighting in him? |
A44697 | What is there then at the bottom, and under the covert of your yet continued profession at such times, but falsehood? |
A44697 | What is your present temper, in it self considered? |
A44697 | What is your present temper? |
A44697 | What should hinder? |
A44697 | What was there in it not delectable? |
A44697 | What wastes and desolations do they commit and make in their own Souls, by breaking the order God and Nature did at first set and establish there? |
A44697 | What were you, sometimes haters of God, and are you now come to love and delight in him, without perceiving in your selves any difference? |
A44697 | What will thy sobriety, thy justice, thy charity signifie, if thou hadst these to glory in, while thou art habitually disaffected to thy God? |
A44697 | What wouldst thou say to it if thy own Son did hate the very sight of thee, and abhor thy presence and converse? |
A44697 | What, ever learning and never arrive to this knowledg? |
A44697 | What, is our riper Age more exempt? |
A44697 | What, love him with all your soul in whom you can rarely find your selves to take any pleasure? |
A44697 | What, man? |
A44697 | What? |
A44697 | When Heaven in respect of the pure holiness, the calm serenity, the rest and blessedness of it, is now grown familiar to him, and his very element? |
A44697 | When did you check and contend with your own hearts upon these accounts, as they are wo nt to do? |
A44697 | When others say, Who will shew us any Good? |
A44697 | When they care not at what expence they make provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof? |
A44697 | When we are said to enjoy God, I inquire, Is any thing communicated to us, or no? |
A44697 | Whence can your not- delighting in him proceed, but from this, as its most immediate cause? |
A44697 | Whence is the glorious excellency of this great Creation, the beauty, loveliness, pleasantness of any Creature? |
A44697 | Whereby are Habits to be known but by the frequency of their acts? |
A44697 | Whereby hath he ever disoblig''d thee? |
A44697 | Whereby would you discern your hatred towards one you did most flatly and peremptorily disaffect? |
A44697 | Whereon is thy heart set? |
A44697 | Whether you should chuse him for your portion, seek rest in him, and place upon him your delight and love? |
A44697 | While you can take no pleasure( or do take so little) in God, is there nothing else wherein you take pleasure? |
A44697 | Whither are you sunk? |
A44697 | Who amongst all the people of the Jews at Mount Horeb, could have any doubt, but the Authority that avouched the Law there given them was Divine? |
A44697 | Who gave us our Idaea of that ever blessed Being? |
A44697 | Who gave us our thinking power, or made us capable of forming a thought? |
A44697 | Who is God save the Lord, and who is a Rock save our God? |
A44697 | Who restrains or forbids me? |
A44697 | Who would not recount with delight the unexpressible felicity of living under the governing power of such a one? |
A44697 | Why do we suppose our thoughts exempt from his Government, or the obligation of his Laws? |
A44697 | Why do you not rejoice and glory in it, even as he professes to do over you? |
A44697 | Why should it be reckoned less insolent to say our thoughts, than our tongues are our own, who is Lord over as? |
A44697 | Why towards me rather than others, not naturally more vile than I? |
A44697 | Why will you distinguish your selves by so debasing a character? |
A44697 | Will it be a grateful remembrance to thee that thou wast so long hovering about the borders of Religion? |
A44697 | Will not that confound and shame thee? |
A44697 | Will that suffice you to delighting in him? |
A44697 | Will you defer till you dye your beginning to live? |
A44697 | Will you not esteem your selves to have been thereby bound to place your love and delight on him? |
A44697 | Will you pause a while and deliberate upon it? |
A44697 | With how sweet and gentle allurements hath he sought to win thy heart? |
A44697 | Worship him so oft, and worship you know not what? |
A44697 | Would it not detract much from the natural pleasure of a mans life, if he should lose an arm or a leg? |
A44697 | Would not his thoughts( once become precious to you) be also numerous, or innumerable rather, as the sands of the Sea- shore? |
A44697 | Would not the word of an ordinary man, premonishing you of any advantage or danger which you have no other knowledg of, be of more value with you? |
A44697 | Would you not be ashamed the disposition of your heart towards him at such times should be known? |
A44697 | Would you not be very unapt to take up injurious hard thoughts of him? |
A44697 | Would you willingly be taken for such in all those long intervals wherein your actual delight in him is wholly discontinued? |
A44697 | Yea, doth it not tend to delight in him? |
A44697 | Yea, wil''t thou not see, that thine heart goes against thy Conscience all this while? |
A44697 | Yet how few( though we must suppose many convinc''t) did heartily believe in him? |
A44697 | You bend your minds and hearts another way; What are you doing then? |
A44697 | You do love God and delight in him, How do you make it appear? |
A44697 | You do not think on your absent Friends while no present occasion occurs, to bring them to your remembrance: But is God absent? |
A44697 | You have vow''d to him, What think you of this drawing back? |
A44697 | You may further say, God is out of your sight, and therefore how can it be expected you should find a sensible delight in him? |
A44697 | You often do not think on Friends with whom you have no opportunity to converse; Have you no opportunity to converse with Him? |
A44697 | You would dislike the thoughts of him, hate his memory, cast him out of your thoughts: Do you not the same way shew your disaffection to God? |
A44697 | Your lesser desires will be swallowed up in greater, and all in the Divine fulness; So that you will now say, Whom have I in heaven but thee? |
A44697 | [ Is there a real thorough work of God upon my Soul or no?] |
A44697 | a course of regular walking in through subjection to his Laws and Government? |
A44697 | and a life of pure devotedness to him? |
A44697 | and hereupon pronounce them blessed whom he did chuse, and cause to approach unto him? |
A44697 | and reckon the Earth too good to bear him? |
A44697 | and so much the worse and more vicious by how much it is more hardly overcome? |
A44697 | and that the course of my actions be as a continual sacrificing; doing all to him and for him? |
A44697 | and the fruits of the Tree of Life? |
A44697 | and the temper of your Spirit towards him is usually strange and shie? |
A44697 | and wast at the very door and wouldst not enter in? |
A44697 | and wherein have I wearied thee? |
A44697 | and whom can I desire on earth besides thee? |
A44697 | as being the first and fountain- Good, the fullest and most comprehensive, the purest and altogether unmixed, the most immutable and permanent Good? |
A44697 | as it were composed of delights? |
A44697 | casual only, and such as have dropt into your minds as it were by chance, fluid and roving, fixed neither upon him nor into your hearts? |
A44697 | especially if thou never gave him the least cause? |
A44697 | especially, if you have, or apprehend you may have nearest interest in such a creature? |
A44697 | from a good Principle or a bad? |
A44697 | his friends? |
A44697 | his sons? |
A44697 | is it indeed no duty to Love God? |
A44697 | no hunger after the heavenly hidden Manna? |
A44697 | of being really and habitually good and holy? |
A44697 | of doing good and walking in the path of life? |
A44697 | offerest violence to the very knot and juncture, wherein they all meet and are infolded together? |
A44697 | or alledg, the thing is hard which must be done? |
A44697 | or attempted, and not be resolved upon? |
A44697 | or delight in him to whom the very temper of their spirits is habitually unsutable and repugnant? |
A44697 | or have beheld his glory and not have been delighted therewith? |
A44697 | or have them useless and unserviceable? |
A44697 | or how can I delight in that I question whether I have or no? |
A44697 | or in respect whereof he hath not appeared altogether lovely? |
A44697 | or shall I not? |
A44697 | or was this indeed all that was this while to be got of God, the credit of being thought his? |
A44697 | or whereby is he said to enjoy God? |
A44697 | or will he be constantly religious? |
A44697 | or, what is most agreeable to your temper? |
A44697 | prescribed and set bounds to him, and thought your sin greater than could be forgiven? |
A44697 | such as care not for him, as value him not? |
A44697 | that it was a stated course? |
A44697 | those of his own house? |
A44697 | to dally with him as you would with an uncertain whiffling man? |
A44697 | to good or hurt? |
A44697 | to lug to and fro a dead carcase? |
A44697 | to serve thee instead of inward acquaintance with God? |
A44697 | was not his love enough to deserve yours? |
A44697 | what definition, so truly expressive of the natures of these things, can be thought, of unto which a carnal mind may not give its approbation? |
A44697 | what do we make of the God we serve? |
A44697 | what do you not now rejoice that you find your selves to offer willingly? |
A44697 | what doth God communicate or transmit, by which he may be said to be enjoyed? |
A44697 | what must we understand it to say or signifie to us? |
A44697 | what thing will you name, that shall supply the place of[ GOD] or be to you in the stead of him? |
A44697 | wherein doth that friendly and dutiful affection towards him evidence it self? |
A44697 | whither tends it? |
A44697 | whom we are bound to fear, and love, to trust and obey above all things, of him are we not bound so much as to think? |
A44697 | will not these be wounding thoughts? |
A44697 | will not this design, if prosecuted, prove an unjustifiable self- indulgence? |
A44697 | would you not be following on to know him? |
A44697 | — Why could not we cast him out? |
A62085 | & c. What has he got, in the room of all the lost life, wisdom and riches of his own Nature? |
A62085 | ''T is deceitful above all things, and desperatly wicked, who can know( or discover) it? |
A62085 | 1) So the Septuagint render it; neither say before God, it was an errour; and therefore, why should he be angry& c.? |
A62085 | 1. why? |
A62085 | 10. Who were these that Watch''d for the haltings; and lay at catch, for advantages, against true Prophets, Christ himself, and Apostles, all along? |
A62085 | 20. what plainer, or more suited to convince? |
A62085 | 20. whv hast thou set me up in a life, I may not keep, as my 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 thee, and concern to my self? |
A62085 | 29. Who but Professours, in Holy Flesh, urg''d Christ''s Crucifixion, when Pilate and his Heathen Party would have freed him? |
A62085 | 7, 8. Who hinder''d you, or, did drive you back, that ye should not obey Christ''s Gospel- Spirit of Truth? |
A62085 | 8. Who can help them? |
A62085 | 9. and v. 27, 28. who''l be Judg, at last? |
A62085 | A Fool also is full of words; a Man can not tell what shall be: and, what shall be after him, who can tell him? |
A62085 | A hard saying, who can hear( or understand) it? |
A62085 | Adam, in the unstain''d purity of all natural perfections and excellencies of humane nature? |
A62085 | Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but, how can one be warm alone? |
A62085 | All amounts but to an encrease of vanity, in desires and desirables; and what''s man the better? |
A62085 | All your rhetorical flashes of wit and eloquence, histories, and similitudes,& c, What signifie such embellishments of Art, in the case? |
A62085 | Am I become your Enemy, say''s Paul, on this very single account, because I tell you the truth? |
A62085 | And I turned my self to behold wisdom, and madness and folly: for, what can the man do, that cometh after the King? |
A62085 | And how then shall he know, what Misery shall, at last, befal him; or when, how, and by what Hand it shall be brought upon him? |
A62085 | And if the Trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the Battel? |
A62085 | And is not your accursed other Gospel, one and the same thing, at bottom? |
A62085 | And so, think to prevail with this Angel, to plead for their Pardon? |
A62085 | And then, do those, guilty of such errours, think to get any thing, by 〈 ◊ 〉, why should God be angry and destroy our works? |
A62085 | And this, when so many crafty Gamesters, Devils, and Men, fill the world with Words and Books, to deceive? |
A62085 | And was he not as fiercely persecuted by such, as soon as he became a Gospel- Saint? |
A62085 | And what are these, both king and subjects? |
A62085 | And what do all such gingling words, such tinkling Cymbals amount unto? |
A62085 | And what succeeds? |
A62085 | And what then? |
A62085 | And what think you, then? |
A62085 | And where are they both, then? |
A62085 | And where then must he be? |
A62085 | And will they say, it was an errour? |
A62085 | And will ye allow God''s one- thing, and Christ''s Gospel, but one word? |
A62085 | And, as for the Cross, so they are for( and they Preach) Regeneration, new Birth, new Creature, Grace,& c. Who but they? |
A62085 | And, have they an arm, like God? |
A62085 | And, if the foundations of all, the true Saint is, has, or has to say, be destroyd or denied, what''s to be done? |
A62085 | And, must Christs gospel be crowded into such a strait place, such a little narrow corner, as to have but one word, for it? |
A62085 | And, must they not suffer for all? |
A62085 | And, of Christ himself, they said, he hath a Devil, and is mad, why hear ye him? |
A62085 | And, say''s God to the Jews, when ye come to appear before me, who hath requir''d this at your hands, to tread my Courts? |
A62085 | And, so is it now; as much, shall I say, or more then ever? |
A62085 | And, thirdly, how, and in what sense, is what he so heaps up, given to him that is good before God? |
A62085 | And, this also is a sore evil, that in all points as he came, so shall he go: and what profit hath he that hath laboured for the Wind? |
A62085 | And, what became of Jeroboam, for his Calf- worship, erected on a self Interested Reason of State? |
A62085 | And, what can all the visible and invisible Powers of this World, with all their Strength, Devices and Bulwarks, be, before him? |
A62085 | And, what can he do, that comes after the King? |
A62085 | And, what get they in their own way, amongst a heap of delusive vanities? |
A62085 | And, what got Israel by refusing the King Jesus, or Government of God, in the said Spirit of true Prophecy? |
A62085 | And, what is he the better? |
A62085 | And, what or who else, in a manner, at this day, can we find, but such anti- Gospel- Gospellers, in all variety of opinion, form, and way? |
A62085 | And, what profit then will they find of all their Labours, in a Law- Spirit of Bondage, Death, and Enmity to the Gospel? |
A62085 | And, what then, to the infinite divine Wisdom and things of God? |
A62085 | And, what''s meant by their Works being in the hand of God? |
A62085 | And, where''s man, then? |
A62085 | And, who but they? |
A62085 | And, who knoweth whether he shall be a wise Man, or a fool? |
A62085 | Annihilation? |
A62085 | Are not here amazing Prodigies, uninterpretable Riddles, to man''s day, or judgment? |
A62085 | Are we at a loss, for an instance? |
A62085 | Are we blind also? |
A62085 | Are ye also deceiv''d? |
A62085 | Are ye willing to part with all this, in case ye had it to part with? |
A62085 | As the fool: the righteous? |
A62085 | As to a soothing Men up into a considence in Man''s and Satan''s Law- Gospel, he say''s, do I seek to please Men? |
A62085 | Be not over- much wicked, neither be thou foolish: why shouldst thou die before thy time? |
A62085 | Be not righteous over- much, neither make thy- self over- wise: why shouldst thou destroy thy felf? |
A62085 | But how, or which way must or can man come by these spiritual senses, eye, ear, palate and understanding? |
A62085 | But indeed, Satan would have it have never a word, would you, so, too? |
A62085 | But, How readest, or understandest thou this Law? |
A62085 | But, Who are the Oppressours, here? |
A62085 | But, can right Gospel- works, which God work''s in Men, be called their own works? |
A62085 | But, does the wise, first- Covenant Holy Man, receive nothing of a Gospel- Testimony? |
A62085 | But, he will say, what''s your Chaff to my Wheat? |
A62085 | But, how does one event happen to them all, Wise and Fools? |
A62085 | But, if it be all, in millions of words, but one and the same thing, why may not one word be enough, to declare it? |
A62085 | But, in what Spirit? |
A62085 | But, leaving both their cases; what hath the poor, that knoweth to walk before the living? |
A62085 | But, think ye this will alwayes be so? |
A62085 | But, what call they so? |
A62085 | But, what care they, so they''r rid of such Tormentors, at present? |
A62085 | But, what come they to? |
A62085 | But, what mean''s Solomon, in saying, that all his wise labours, in his own restored nature, must be left to a man that has not laboured therein? |
A62085 | But, what then hath the wise Man, or first- Covenant holy Man, more than the fool, in corrupt Nature? |
A62085 | But, what''s the Commandment, carries so great advantage with it, to the Observers thereof? |
A62085 | But, what? |
A62085 | But, who are the Wise and Righteous, here? |
A62085 | But, why should he be thus charitable and obedient to Christ? |
A62085 | But, why should the Servant look to fare better then his Lord, amongst them? |
A62085 | By such, did the Prince of darkness and death carry on his murdering work on the Prince of Life,? |
A62085 | Ca n''t ye say, in a word, what you would have, that we may be presently rid of any farther trouble with you? |
A62085 | Can any Man hope to prosper, in such contest and dispute with his Maker? |
A62085 | Can any believe this? |
A62085 | Can any deny this? |
A62085 | Can he ever be blessed in his deeds of the Law, that does all in a spirit of enmity to God and his Gospel- Life? |
A62085 | Can such Mystical evil Trees bring forth any good Fruit, to God? |
A62085 | Can the Rulers of this World, visible or invisible, bear such Doctrine, concerning that State, they set up in, for Salvation? |
A62085 | Can they miss of what they love, and have chosen? |
A62085 | Can they thunder with a Voice, like him? |
A62085 | Can they thunder with a voice like him? |
A62085 | Can this be lesse then the sin unto death, eternal death? |
A62085 | Can we love him, with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength, in a spirit of direct enmity to him? |
A62085 | Christ ask''d the Lawyer, enquiring after Eternal Life; What''s written in the Law? |
A62085 | Christ''s? |
A62085 | Christ, or the Devil; the Angel or Messenger of Gods everlasting Covenant, or the Angel of the Bottomless Pit? |
A62085 | Consider the work of God: for who can make that straight, which he hath made crooked? |
A62085 | Dare they speak the words of that Spirit? |
A62085 | Despised and Rejected of Men, even his own People in the first- Covenant, for Witnessing and Practicing the Doctrin of the second? |
A62085 | Did I fear a great multitude? |
A62085 | Did not Paul, when all this, most fiercely persecute Christ, and all his Gospel- Saints and Truths? |
A62085 | Do any of the Scribes or Pharisees believe him? |
A62085 | Do any such, dare to own themselvs Sons or Children of God, in his new and everlasting Covenant- Principle, his Gospel- spirit of Grace and Truth? |
A62085 | Do any wise, knowing, righteous Men believe on him? |
A62085 | Do either or any of them, know what they do? |
A62085 | Do not all go to one place? |
A62085 | Do we stand trifling, and lie at catch, with the Pharisees, to see what Gospel- doctrine will be at? |
A62085 | Envying, strife, confusion, tumult or unquietness, and every mischievous evil thing or work; what else can come on''t? |
A62085 | First then, negatively, where is true Wisdom not to be found? |
A62085 | First, What''s meant by the unprofitable Labourer and Labour, reproved here? |
A62085 | First, what is it, this sinner gathers and heaps up? |
A62085 | Fishermen and Women( under the teaching- Influence of Christ, by which, a spiritual Understanding was waken''d and set up in them) cleerly understood? |
A62085 | For What? |
A62085 | For this, the High- Priest ask''s him; Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed? |
A62085 | For which of my good works do ye stone me? |
A62085 | For, Hast thou an arm like God? |
A62085 | For, Who can bring us down, from our high and strong place? |
A62085 | For, has he an Arm like God? |
A62085 | For, he knoweth not that which shall be: for, who can tell him, when( or how) it shall be? |
A62085 | For, says he, had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: But if ye believe not his Writings, how shall ye believe my Words? |
A62085 | For, what can he do that comes after the King? |
A62085 | For, what hath a Man of all his labour, and of the vexation of his heart, wherein he hath laboured under the Sun? |
A62085 | For, what hath the Wise more than the Fool? |
A62085 | For, who believ''s the report? |
A62085 | For, who can eat? |
A62085 | For, who can tell a Man, what shall be after him, under the Sun? |
A62085 | For, who hath directed his spirit? |
A62085 | For, who knoweth what is good for Man, in this life, all the days of his vain life, which he spendeth as a shadow? |
A62085 | For, who may say to him, what dost thou? |
A62085 | Friend, will the King Jesus say, how cam''st thou in hither, not having a Wedding Garment? |
A62085 | God is for them, who can be against them? |
A62085 | Hardly guess we aright, at things on Earth, that are before us: but, things in Heaven, who hath searched out? |
A62085 | Has not the true Christ and his great Apostle foretold all this? |
A62085 | Have Gospel- Saints all truth, and First- Covenant Saints, none? |
A62085 | Have any of the Rulers or Pharisees 〈 ◊ 〉 on him? |
A62085 | Have they an arm like God? |
A62085 | Have they an arm, like God? |
A62085 | He does not so much as say in his Heart; for whom do I Labour, and to what end do I bereave my Soul of good? |
A62085 | He has said enough, at the Bar, to take away his life, though we had nothing else against him, before: What think ye? |
A62085 | He say''s in his Heart, Who shall bring me down to the Ground? |
A62085 | Hence, Solomon says, how dies the wise Man? |
A62085 | Here''s the universal clash and contrariety of Satans lying, and Christs true Gospel; which will ye choose, O simple ones? |
A62085 | His or theirs? |
A62085 | Holy Men, a first- Covenant People of God, blasphem''d, said of Christ, he had a Devil, and was mad; why hear ye him? |
A62085 | How So? |
A62085 | How can Man please him, in duties of Worship, or any other Performances towards him or Man, in his own Spirit of Enmity? |
A62085 | How can they be less then more then Conquerors? |
A62085 | How can this be? |
A62085 | How can two Men, walk together,( and how much less, God and man) except they be agreed? |
A62085 | How can ye believe( says Christ to the professing Jews) who receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God, only? |
A62085 | How currant does renewed old first- creation life, pass, at this day, for new? |
A62085 | How dies the Wise man? |
A62085 | How else should men, out of polluted Nature, come to be spotless before the Throne of God, and chast Virgins to Christ? |
A62085 | How long re simple ones, will ye love simplicity, delight in scorning my counsel, and hate true knowledge? |
A62085 | How long wilt thou sleep, O Sluggard? |
A62085 | How oft would I have gather''d you together, unto me, under my divine and Creature- wings, in this Life, and ye would not? |
A62085 | How powerful and prevalent is felf- destroying self- love? |
A62085 | How readest thou? |
A62085 | How then should they have it, abiding in them? |
A62085 | How vastly distant are God''s thoughts, and Man''s, in this matter? |
A62085 | How? |
A62085 | How? |
A62085 | Hurt? |
A62085 | I said of Laughter, it is mad: and of Mirth, what doth it? |
A62085 | If Christ, if God be on their side, who can be against them, and prosper? |
A62085 | If God be against him, who can be for him? |
A62085 | If God be for them, who can be against them? |
A62085 | If Man Submit not to God''s terms for receiving his new- Creation- Life, who can bring him to see, what shall be after him? |
A62085 | If he has no other ground to stand on, when all that is gone, where is he? |
A62085 | If that of Adam( and all men in him) had bin so, who could have bin saved? |
A62085 | If the Wisdom of God be foolishness to them, can any wonder, those that come with the words of that wisdom, should be reckon''d fools, by them? |
A62085 | If they can get Men to swallow down this, what need any other, or any care, or troubling our selvs about Religion, or Salvation, at all? |
A62085 | In a literal sence, how oft do men hasten the death of their body, by 〈 ◊ 〉, riot and luxury? |
A62085 | In the first- covenant wisdom of Man, or new- covenant wisdom of God? |
A62085 | In the litteral Shadow, only, or Mystical truth, also? |
A62085 | In the spiritual or mystical, what''s casting Bread upon the Waters? |
A62085 | In what unutterable confusion, are mortals tugging and sweating against their own Salvation, and for their everlasting destruction? |
A62085 | Is it so, even now? |
A62085 | Is man, in Enmity to the whole Mind, Counsel, true Sabbath, and Sanctuary of God, like to be a faithful and able Minister of his Gospel- Truths? |
A62085 | Is not here, enough? |
A62085 | Is one word like to do it, for Salvation? |
A62085 | Is there any Word from the Lord? |
A62085 | Is there any thing, whereof it may be said, see, this is new? |
A62085 | Is there anything new, any newnes of life, in mans restored Old? |
A62085 | Is there not a cause for such Jealousies and Fears? |
A62085 | Is this the Subject of the Cross of Christ? |
A62085 | Is ye believe not Moses''s Writings, say''s he, How shall ye believe my words? |
A62085 | Lie down in sorrow, under Wrath, for ever? |
A62085 | Man, fixed in his own Life and way, and so, in Enmity to God; what reward can he expect, but final Wrath, as the meet Recompence of his Errour? |
A62085 | May we not reckon these shuffling Halters between God and Baal, in a more dangerous condition, then the former? |
A62085 | Must Satan''s gospel have such a world of Words, Books, Preachings, and Christ''s, but one word? |
A62085 | Nay, but O Man, who 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 that thus repliest 〈 ◊ 〉 God? |
A62085 | Next then, what''s meant by God''s giving such a sinner travel, to gather and to heap up, that he may give to him that is good before God? |
A62085 | Nothing? |
A62085 | Now, what a wretched wicked self- denial are they guilty of, that neglect all these advantages of their nature, to level themselves with Beasts? |
A62085 | Now, whom think you, like to be most welcome to Man, the destroying Saviour, or the saving destroyer? |
A62085 | Of whose Gospel? |
A62085 | On his Answer, they say, What need of further witness? |
A62085 | On supposal, a Man should violently crow''d into the Kingdom, in Holy Flesh, and sit at Christ''s Wedding Supper; still, what the better? |
A62085 | On this, he Cries out, O Wretched Man that I am, who shall deliver me from this body of death? |
A62085 | Or who can think what the Will of the Lord is? |
A62085 | Or, Who knoweth and rightly consider''s the Spirit of Man, in its distinguishing Prerogative, from the Beast? |
A62085 | Or, from the Love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord? |
A62085 | Or, who can hurt them? |
A62085 | Or, will ye never see? |
A62085 | Preach a Gospel State, to you? |
A62085 | Pretend he does, to the interpreting the words of God''s Wisdom; but, what work is he like to make on''t? |
A62085 | Sand? |
A62085 | Say not thou, what is the cause that the former days were better then these? |
A62085 | Secondly then, who is the Sinner, here? |
A62085 | Secondly, What, by the said Labourer''s being destitute of an heir? |
A62085 | Secondly, in what sense is God the giver to him, with pain and travel, so to do? |
A62085 | See ye now where we both are, with our several one- things? |
A62085 | See you the differing, contrary Judgment of God, and wise, righteous men? |
A62085 | See you what the Judgment of Man''s Wisdom, at best, is, about persons or things, that belong to God? |
A62085 | Seeing there be many things that encrease vanity, what is Man the better? |
A62085 | Shall I crucify your King? |
A62085 | Shall I suffer all my mystical riches herein, to be seiz''d, and like a tame fool, make no resistance? |
A62085 | Shall an earthy, clay- Man say to God, why hast thou made me thus? |
A62085 | Shall he prosper? |
A62085 | Shall he that contends with the Almighty, instruct him? |
A62085 | So much as to declare the Transcendent Security and Priviledges of Saints? |
A62085 | So, Pilat''s question, what is Truth? |
A62085 | Solomon, King of litteral, and also, mystical earthly Jerusalem, in all the glory, wisdom, and righteousness of man? |
A62085 | T. For, who shall bring him to see what shall be after him? |
A62085 | That the righteousness of Man, or Man, in his restor''d righteous life, according to the Law blameless, is in a state of everlasting Salvation? |
A62085 | That which is far off, and exceeding deep, who can find it out? |
A62085 | The Elders, chief- Priests and Scribes lead him into their Council, and all of them say to him, Art thou the Son of God? |
A62085 | The Jews came round about Christ, and say''d to him, how long dost thou make us to doubt, or keep us in suspense? |
A62085 | The Jews were for Moses; who, but they? |
A62085 | The Pharisees said among themselvs, 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 nothing? |
A62085 | The Scriptures are own''d as the Words of God, by all, under the name of Christians, but how do they read, hear, or understand them? |
A62085 | The Spiritual Man, the true Watchman, Prophet, and Seer of God, is a Fool, Mad, a Snare, Hatred it self; Where? |
A62085 | The consequent hereof, Solomon declares, to be a dying before( or, not in) their time; saying, Why shouldst thou die before thy time? |
A62085 | The enlight''ned, professing, righteous Jewish Teachers, said, on this very account, of Christ himself, he hath a Devil, and is Mad; Why hear ye him? |
A62085 | Then said I in my heart, as it happeneth to the fool, so it happeneth even to me; and why was I then more wise? |
A62085 | Then, affirmatively, where is it to be had? |
A62085 | They say in their hearts, who shall bring me down to the ground? |
A62085 | They say, Who shall bring me down? |
A62085 | Think any to enter into that House, any otherwise, then Christ himself could? |
A62085 | Think''st thou, by thy wicked and rebellious contending with him, to escape, or find any thing short of thy eternal confusion? |
A62085 | Think? |
A62085 | This being so, Solomon sayes, Why was I then more Wise? |
A62085 | This threefold Cord who can break? |
A62085 | This, 〈 ◊ 〉, where are Men, with all the words of their Foolish Wisdom? |
A62085 | Thou shalt never wash my feet, said Peter; No? |
A62085 | Thy Counsel, who hath known, except thou give Wisdom, and send thy holy Spirit from above? |
A62085 | To despise your own righteous Law- Life, or Living Soul, for Christ''s Gospel- Spirit? |
A62085 | To throw up all rational and Intellectual pleasures, and betake themselvs wholly to Bestial? |
A62085 | To wit, as to the gaining and keeping off the people, from listning to his Ministry? |
A62085 | Trembling, and astonish''d, he said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? |
A62085 | Upon what? |
A62085 | V. 1. Who is as the wise Man? |

A53721 | 11. what do the Saints hereupon? |
A53721 | 16. not make haste; to what? |

A53721 | 24. cry out, when he was deprived of them? |
A53721 | A man professeth that the death of Christ will mortifie sin, and subdue corruption; Why doth he believe it? |
A53721 | After what? |
A53721 | Ah how many Laodicean Churches have we in the World? |
A53721 | Ah poor worms, with whom have we to do? |
A53721 | Ah saith the soul, Whither shall I cause my sorrow to go? |
A53721 | Ah, saith the soul, have I thus requited the wonderful astonishing Love of my Redeemer? |
A53721 | Alas, what strangers for the most part are men now adayes to this frame? |
A53721 | And are they accepted with God? |
A53721 | And by the Apostle; Is God unjust who taketh vengeance? |
A53721 | And by what means it hath been declared unto you? |
A53721 | And doth he not in them, and by them speak us into a Reverence of his Greatness? |
A53721 | And for us who have in this matter to do with God, what is our continuance unto that of the world? |
A53721 | And for your duties you mention, what I pray is the root and spring of them? |
A53721 | And hast thou thus requited my love? |
A53721 | And have I failed them? |
A53721 | And have you considered what it is for sinners, such sinners as you are, to have to deal with a Righteous and a holy God? |
A53721 | And have your hearts leaped within you with the thoughts of it? |
A53721 | And how could his delight be with the Sons of men? |
A53721 | And how do we behold this glory? |
A53721 | And how is it in this case? |
A53721 | And how small a portion is it that we know of God? |
A53721 | And if he be somewhat disquieted, can he not contain himself, but that he must roar, and cry out? |
A53721 | And if we deal so with God what is there in our so doing, praise worthy? |
A53721 | And indeed what can be more righteous than its sentence? |
A53721 | And is not the reason of it, that we value the world more, and Heaven and heavenly things less than he did? |
A53721 | And shall he be refused by you? |
A53721 | And shall it now be neglected or despised by you? |
A53721 | And shall not we be instructed by him? |
A53721 | And shall not we now be made partakers of it? |
A53721 | And shall the soul be slothful, careless, dull, secure, when fire is put to its eternal concernments? |
A53721 | And shall this fail us? |
A53721 | And shall we think that such as these believe forgiveness of sin? |
A53721 | And to what end doth God at any time make these seemingly dubious intimations of Grace and Mercy? |
A53721 | And to what end hat he thus spared us, and let pass those Advantages for our destruction, that we have put into his hand? |
A53721 | And to what end is this? |
A53721 | And to what end? |
A53721 | And what Effects have these thoughts produced? |
A53721 | And what Reason have they then to believe that the things which it speaks of that are without them, are one jot better? |
A53721 | And what are we poor worms, whose lives are measured by inches in comparison of their span? |
A53721 | And what are we, that we should contend about it with him? |
A53721 | And what can not the Wisdom and Grace of the Father and Son effect and accomplish? |
A53721 | And what could God that can not lye, do more, to give us satisfaction herein than he hath done? |
A53721 | And what course doth he steer in this heavy, sorrowful, and disconsolate condition? |
A53721 | And what course doth he take to convince them of their mistake therein? |
A53721 | And what course doth he take? |
A53721 | And what did he obtain hereby? |
A53721 | And what do they bear witness unto? |
A53721 | And what do we know or understand of these things? |
A53721 | And what doth she do when she is thus resolved? |
A53721 | And what greater evidence, what greater Assurance can we have, that there is forgiveness with God for us? |
A53721 | And what is got by this? |
A53721 | And what is it that he prayes for them, in distinction from all other men whatever? |
A53721 | And what is that? |
A53721 | And what is the rise, spring, and cause of these things? |
A53721 | And what is their acceptance with God? |
A53721 | And what know we hereof? |
A53721 | And what peace can you possibly obtain, were you as holy as ever you aimed or desired to be, whilest this is your Condition? |
A53721 | And what shall we say, when he himself hath undertaken to make all things that he guides unto us to work together for our good? |
A53721 | And what thence ensues? |
A53721 | And what was that better Testament? |
A53721 | And what was the Reason, what was the cause, that he was thus dealt withal? |
A53721 | And what way did you steer, what course did you take to obtain the blessed condition wherein now you are? |
A53721 | And what will be the end? |
A53721 | And what will be the issue? |
A53721 | And what will it avail any of us, that there is forgiveness of sin with God, if our own sins be not forgiven? |
A53721 | And wherein did it consist? |
A53721 | And wherein doth that consist? |
A53721 | And who is this that is thus sent and called the only begotten Son of God? |
A53721 | And why so? |
A53721 | And wilt thou think it meet for such a one as thou art, to magnifie thy self against the great possessor of Heaven and Earth? |
A53721 | Are not Heaven and Earth astonished at the despising of that Love, at which they are astonished? |
A53721 | Are not the Consciences, and Convictions of the most stifled, by this Apprehension? |
A53721 | Are the corrupted Natures of men, and the Gospel so suited, so complying? |
A53721 | Are their consciences purged? |
A53721 | Are their hearts continually filled with thoughts about it? |
A53721 | Are their hearts purified by it? |
A53721 | Are their lives changed? |
A53721 | Are they not all the effect of the Word of the Power of this glorious God? |
A53721 | Are they solicitous about it? |
A53721 | Are they solicitous concerning their interest in it? |
A53721 | Are we not satisfied with our condition? |
A53721 | Are we, say they, blind also? |
A53721 | Are you tossed up and down between hopes and fears, want peace, consolation and establishment? |
A53721 | Art thou come to call my sins to remembrance and to slay my Son? |
A53721 | Art thou not even ashamed to desire him to return? |
A53721 | As Reuben cryed, The child is not, and I whither shall I go? |
A53721 | Be it so then; through our sin and default this good and holy Law, this Covenant was made unprofitable unto us; But what was that unto God? |
A53721 | But are you sure now that this is so, may you not possibly be deceived? |
A53721 | But did they make a right Judgement of themselves? |
A53721 | But doth Christ agree with Zion in this sentence? |
A53721 | But doth he lye down under the burden of all this trouble? |
A53721 | But doth it abide there? |
A53721 | But doth not this tend to licenciousness? |
A53721 | But his Soveraignty, Righteousness and Holiness, how are they declared hereby? |
A53721 | But how are you confirmed in this perswasion? |
A53721 | But how can this be? |
A53721 | But how doth this appear that indeed this is the counsel of his will? |
A53721 | But how then could he rejoyce in the habitable parts of the Earth? |
A53721 | But is this all? |
A53721 | But is this that forgiveness which is revealed in the Gospel? |
A53721 | But is this the design of God? |
A53721 | But now what are the greatest number of those who pretend to receive this Truth? |
A53721 | But now what can be required to make any thing a duty unto us, that is wanting in this matter? |
A53721 | But shall this Atheistical wickedness of the heart of man be called a discovery of forgiveness? |
A53721 | But this is not all; he is not swallowed up in this amazement, crying out only who can stand? |
A53721 | But was it so with her indeed? |
A53721 | But what are these duties? |
A53721 | But what is a dead body, and a dead womb, to an accusing Conscience, a killing Law, and apprehensions of a God terrible as a consuming fire? |
A53721 | But what is it that can be reasonably excepted against this evidence, this foundation of our faith in this matter? |
A53721 | But what is it unto the whole habitable world, and the fulness thereof? |
A53721 | But what is the ground of such an invitation, unto such profligate sinners? |
A53721 | But what is the issue? |
A53721 | But what is the issue? |
A53721 | But what is the issue? |
A53721 | But who are they? |
A53721 | But you will say how shall we distinguish between these two, so as not causelesly to be disquieted and perplexed? |
A53721 | But you will say; Why, what great matter is there that you have in hand? |
A53721 | By whom are they proposed? |
A53721 | By whom were these Terms procured for you? |
A53721 | Can I walk with God in them, whilst I have thus made him mine enemy? |
A53721 | Can a man be profitable unto God, as he that is wise may be profitable unto himself? |
A53721 | Can any one certainly say, that he is worsted thereby? |
A53721 | Can he not be quiet night nor day? |
A53721 | Can he, say they, give bread? |
A53721 | Can two walk together unless they be agreed? |
A53721 | Can we be deceived trusting in it, or expecting that we shall find him to be what his name declares? |
A53721 | Can you find a man that is otherwise minded? |
A53721 | Could it have any other end, but to deceive poor creatures? |
A53721 | Did I love thee, and leave my glory to become a scorn and reproach for thy sake? |
A53721 | Did I not think my life, and all that was dear unto me too good for thee, to save thee from the wrath to come? |
A53721 | Did he go through with it? |
A53721 | Did he no more for the securing of the forgiveness of sins unto us, but only that he dyed for them? |
A53721 | Did he only testifie his Love, and shew his good will for our deliverance? |
A53721 | Did his Work cease in his death? |
A53721 | Did it interest them in the promises? |
A53721 | Did not the wrath of God overtake them notwithstanding? |
A53721 | Did this profit them? |
A53721 | Do these things abound in you? |
A53721 | Do they deny all ungodliness and worldly lusts? |
A53721 | Do they look upon it as their Treasure, their Jewel, their Pearl of price? |
A53721 | Do they often look and examine whether it continues safe in their possession or no? |
A53721 | Do they reckon, that whilst that is safe, all is safe with them? |
A53721 | Do we doubt whether there be forgiveness with God or no? |
A53721 | Do we not find all men full enough, most too full of Apprehensions of Forgiveness with God? |
A53721 | Do we think that God hath forgiveness only for this or that individual person? |
A53721 | Do you aright consider the nature of this matter? |
A53721 | Do you at all seriously think of these things? |
A53721 | Do you think it excellent, safe, and Glorious unto them who are entred unto it? |
A53721 | Do you think to mend your condition by wishing it better, or complaining it is so bad? |
A53721 | Doth forgiveness teach them so to do? |
A53721 | Doth the Husbandman after he casts his seed into the Earth, immediately the next day, the next week, expect that it will be harvest? |
A53721 | Find you not in your selves an impotency, a disability unto the dutyes of Obedience, as to their performance unto God in an acceptable manner? |
A53721 | Finding themselves in depths, in distresses about sin, what course do they take? |
A53721 | First, Then in particular it cryes out, If thou Lord shouldst mark iniquities, O Lord who shall stand? |
A53721 | For do we think that he will be beholding unto them? |
A53721 | For having said, Why dost thou cast me off O God? |
A53721 | For how else should Cain so instantly know, that his Brother and his Offering were accepted, but that he and his were refused? |
A53721 | For how should a man, any man, the best of men, be just with God if he would contend with him? |
A53721 | For may he not do what he will with his own? |
A53721 | For the Interrogation is indefinite; not how can I? |
A53721 | For to what end should he have done it? |
A53721 | For what Reason can be imagined, why God will be glorified in one Essential Excellency of his Nature, and not in another? |
A53721 | For what else becomes us when we have to do with this great, and Holy one? |
A53721 | For what need any man complain of that which requires nothing of him, but what he is from his own frame and Principles inclined unto? |
A53721 | For what should encourage us unto any such boldness? |
A53721 | For what sincerity can be in such proceedings? |
A53721 | For who hath known the mind of the Lord, or who hath been his counsellor? |
A53721 | God alwaies immutably subsisting in his own Infinite Being? |
A53721 | Gospel- forgiveness? |
A53721 | Hast thou not heard; hast not thou known? |
A53721 | Hath God enlarged our hearts in prayer? |
A53721 | Hath Nabal thus requited my kindness saith David? |
A53721 | Hath he so done his work and laid it aside, or doth he still continue to carry it on until it be brought unto its perfection? |
A53721 | Hath it been to make up what was wanting, and to piece up a peace in your own Consciences? |
A53721 | Hath it filled you with self- loathing and Abhorrency, with self- condemnation, and abasement? |
A53721 | Hath it this effect upon his soul, in his own heart? |
A53721 | Hath the Holy Ghost wrought a serious Recognition in your hearts of all these things, and caused them to abide with you and upon you? |
A53721 | Hath the unspeakable multitude of the sins of your lives been set in order by the Law before you? |
A53721 | Hath this been done by a Word of Truth? |
A53721 | Have I been a Wilderness unto thee, or a land of darkness? |
A53721 | Have the wayes of Holyness, of Obedience, of Duties been so unto you? |
A53721 | Have they found it effectual to these purposes? |
A53721 | Have they had secret reasonings and contendings in their hearts about it? |
A53721 | Have we nothing to do but to lay the foundation? |
A53721 | Have you been convinced of the Universal Enmity that is in your hearts to the mind of God; and what it is to be at Enmity against God? |
A53721 | Have you been filled with perplexities and consternation of Spirit thereupon? |
A53721 | Have you given up your selves to this Grace? |
A53721 | Have you had fears dreads or terrors to wrestle withall? |
A53721 | Have you looked upon it as the price of his life, and the purchase of his blood? |
A53721 | Have you seen pardon flowing from the heart of the Father through the blood of the Son? |
A53721 | Have you stood at the shore of that infinite Ocean of Goodness and Love? |
A53721 | Have you then been made sensible of your condition by Nature; what it is to be alienated from the life of God, and to be obnoxious to his wrath? |
A53721 | Have your souls found supportment and relief from that Consideration? |
A53721 | He did it not upon our desire, request, or proposal, but meerly of his own Accord, and why should we contend with him about it? |
A53721 | He finds fault with the first; what then doth he do? |
A53721 | He is great and terrible, a marker of sin, and what shall I say unto him? |
A53721 | He quickly rebukes and recollects himself, saying, Why art thou cast down O my Soul, and why art thou disquieted within me? |
A53721 | He sayes of some sins of ungodly men, as I live this iniquity shall not be purged from you until ye dye? |
A53721 | He takes up their hearts to be his dwelling place; to what ends and purposes? |
A53721 | He that made the Eye, shall he not see? |
A53721 | He that planted the Ear, shall he not hear? |
A53721 | He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? |
A53721 | He that thus prescribes forgiveness to us, that bestows the Grace of it upon us, is there not forgiveness with him? |
A53721 | How comes it to be an occasion of his trouble? |
A53721 | How comes the Remembrance of God to be unto him a matter of trouble? |
A53721 | How could David keep silence, and yet roar all the day long? |
A53721 | How did they entertain these promises of God? |
A53721 | How doth David rouse up himself when he found his mind inclinable unto such a frame? |
A53721 | How doth God know? |
A53721 | How great then will be your destruction? |
A53721 | How infinite, how unspeakable must needs the Grace and Condescention of God in this matter be? |
A53721 | How is it then that you are thus delivered that you are no more sad? |
A53721 | How is the true God distinguished from these Gods by Reputation? |
A53721 | How light do most men make of pardon? |
A53721 | How little of the workings of this Spirit is found amongst us? |
A53721 | How long did his Afflictions continue? |
A53721 | How many Professors are members of these Chruches? |
A53721 | How many, things have the Romanists invented to deceive souls withal? |
A53721 | How much less on them that dwell in houses of Clay; whose foundation is in the dust, who are crushed before the moth? |
A53721 | How shall a man know that his humiliation is Evangelical, that his sorrow is according to God? |
A53721 | How shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation? |
A53721 | How then shall we apprehend it; how shall we conceive of it? |
A53721 | How then shall we obtain the knowledge of them? |
A53721 | How unconceivable is this glorious divine Property unto the thoughts and minds of men? |
A53721 | How was he prepared for the reception of this great mysterie in its first discovery? |
A53721 | How was this? |
A53721 | How weak are the waies and terms whereby they go about to express it? |
A53721 | However, what shame and confusion of face belongs to me for my wretched disingenuity, and ingratitude towards him? |
A53721 | I am sure, that eventually they prevail so far, that in the preaching of the Gospel, we have great cause to say, Lord who hath believed our report? |
A53721 | I have sinned, what shall I do unto thee, O thou preserver of men? |
A53721 | I speak unto them that are under the Law; Would you be free from that bondage, that galling yoke in dutyes of Obedience? |
A53721 | If God will have us saved in a way of meer mercy and forgiveness; If his Wisdom and Soveraignty be in it, shall we oppose him, and say we like it not? |
A53721 | If I have told you earthly things and ye believe not; how will you believe, if I tell you heavenly things? |
A53721 | If any one hath sinned, and is in depths and entanglements about it; what course shall he take, how shall he proceed to obtain deliverance? |
A53721 | If he did so, and had that blessed Issue, why should not we do so also? |
A53721 | If one man sin against another, the Judge shall judge him; but if a man sin against the Lord, who shall intreat for him? |
A53721 | If then you say you know it; Let us enquire how you came so to do? |
A53721 | If they have no Experience of what it affirms to be within them, what confidence can they have of the Reality of what it reveals to be without them? |
A53721 | If thou Lord shouldst mark iniquity, O Lord who shall stand? |
A53721 | If thou Lord shouldst mark iniquity, O Lord who shall stand? |
A53721 | If thou be Righteous what givest thou him, or what receiveth he at thine hand? |
A53721 | If thou, Lord, shouldst mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand? |
A53721 | If thou, Lord, shouldst mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand? |
A53721 | If we abide at a distance from God, we shall assuredly perish; who ever hardned himself against him and prospered? |
A53721 | If you are not, why do you give up your selves to despondencies? |
A53721 | If you do these things ye shall never fall: What never fall into sin? |
A53721 | If you sit still you perish, and if you rise to be doing, it will not be better; is there no hope left for our Souls? |
A53721 | In that case who shall take upon him to intercede for the sinner? |
A53721 | Is Grace capable of a conversion into Lust or Sin? |
A53721 | Is he fit to intercede for sinners that shall make it? |
A53721 | Is it any pleasure to the Almighty that thou art righteous, or is it gain unto him that thou makest thy wayes perfect? |
A53721 | Is it consistent with any Divine Excellency? |
A53721 | Is it for want of Mercy, Goodness, Grace or Patience in God? |
A53721 | Is it for want of the mightiest encouragements and most infallible Assurances that with God there is Forgiveness? |
A53721 | Is it in a future Amendment and Repentance? |
A53721 | Is it in the World? |
A53721 | Is it in the continuance of their lives? |
A53721 | Is it in their Duties, and Righteousness? |
A53721 | Is it in their Lusts, and sins, that they will yield them as much satisfaction and contentment as they shall need to desire? |
A53721 | Is it not Industry and Activity of spirit? |
A53721 | Is it not a common complaint that men presume on it, unto their eternal ruine? |
A53721 | Is it not evident that all their lives they seem industriously to take care that they may perish eternally? |
A53721 | Is it not for the most part from your sloth and despondency of spirit? |
A53721 | Is it not he who destroyed Aegypt with his Plagues, and drowned Pharaoh with his Host in the red Sea? |
A53721 | Is it not he, one of whose servants flew an hundred and fourscore and five thousand in Senacheribs Army in one night? |
A53721 | Is it not that he might by his patience, give us leave and space to get an interest in that forgiveness which he thus testifies to be in himself? |
A53721 | Is it not then incumbent on every one to be enquiring in what number he is likely to be found at the last day? |
A53721 | Is it nothing unto you to lose all your hopes, and all your Expectations which you have from hence? |
A53721 | Is it possible there should be mercy for such an one? |
A53721 | Is it saith he, to God, Good for thee that shouldst oppress, that thou shouldst despise the work of thy hands? |
A53721 | Is it the burning of our houses, the spoiling of our Goods, the ruine of our estates alone that our sins have deserved? |
A53721 | Is it through any defect in the Mediation of the Lord Christ? |
A53721 | Is not God holy, righteous, wise in what he hath done? |
A53721 | Is not this he who brought the Flood of old upon the world of ungodly men? |
A53721 | Is not this to make God an Idol? |
A53721 | Is not what he doth, good and holy because he doth it? |
A53721 | Is that the beginning of our Message unto him? |
A53721 | Is the New Covenant grown so connatural to flesh and blood? |
A53721 | Is the greatest secret that ever was revealed from the bosom of the Father, become so familiar and easie to the wisdom of the flesh? |
A53721 | Is there any need of their Testimony to the Truth, Faithfulness, and Goodness of God? |
A53721 | Is there any thing more to be done herein? |
A53721 | Is there forgiveness with him or no? |
A53721 | Is there no forgiveness with God? |
A53721 | Is there not Remunerative Justice in God, in a way of Bounty? |
A53721 | Is there not Vindictive Justice in him, in a way of severity? |
A53721 | Is this all? |
A53721 | Is this an Argument to keep thee from believing? |
A53721 | Is this any thing of that you do believe? |
A53721 | Is this giving all diligence? |
A53721 | Is this the frame of the most of men? |
A53721 | Is this the return that thou hast made unto him for all his love, his kindness, his consolations, mercies? |
A53721 | Is this the return, the requital, I have made unto him? |
A53721 | Is this thy kindness for him, thy love to him? |
A53721 | Is this thy kindness to thy Friend? |
A53721 | Is this working out our Salvation with fear and trembling? |
A53721 | It comes not in its own name, but in the name of him who appointed it; you will say then, is it so indeed? |
A53721 | It is an expression of exultation that he useth; but what is the Issue of it? |
A53721 | It is answered by the matter of the Proposal, who can stand? |
A53721 | It is to bring him to Repentance: What now, if he obtaine his end, and man cometh to that which is aimed at? |
A53721 | It must then be for our sakes; and for what? |
A53721 | It will then be said, doth not all this lye directly contrary to our daily experience? |
A53721 | Let Jesus Christ be heard to speak in this cause, let him come and judge? |
A53721 | Let us consider with whom we have to do; are not we and all our concernments in his hands, as the Clay in the hand of the Potter? |
A53721 | Many have not these terms revealed unto them; few find favour to accept of them; and of whom is it that you have obtained this peculiar mercy? |
A53721 | May I not justly fear, that the Lord will take his holy Spirit from me, until I be left without remedy? |
A53721 | May he not do what he will with his own? |
A53721 | May it not be feared that it is utterly otherwise? |
A53721 | May not an Intercessor be obtained to plead in the behalf of the guilty soul? |
A53721 | May we not then see a mixture of unspeakable patience, grace and mercy in every dispensation? |
A53721 | Methinks now Judas his Repentance looks like the young mans Obedience, who cryed out, all these things have I done; Is there any thing yet lacking? |
A53721 | No, saith the Apostle, God hath another design in his patience, and long- suffering; what is this? |
A53721 | No; Have they considered how the Objections that lye against it may be removed? |
A53721 | None can, saith the Holy Ghost; nor can it be spoken to their capacity; ah what shall their end be? |
A53721 | Nor is there the least relief to be had but from and by him; for who can forgive sins but God? |
A53721 | Not at all; But is it so indeed that this perswasion is thus bred in you, you know not how? |
A53721 | Notions there are many about it, and endless contentions, but what more? |
A53721 | Now how can any man apply himself hereunto, whilest he is altogether uncertain whether he hath received any principle of Living, Saving Grace, or no? |
A53721 | Now how do most men look upon forgiveness? |
A53721 | Now what is the Advantage of these things? |
A53721 | Now what is the way to receive that which comes from meer Soveraignty and prerogative? |
A53721 | Now what was Adams condition when the Revelation of forgiveness was first made to him? |
A53721 | O sinners, come and deal with God by Repentance: Doth it not openly speak forgiveness in God? |
A53721 | O that I had thousands of Ramms, and ten thousands of Rivers of Oyl to offer to him? |
A53721 | Oh how little is this really believed, even by them who make a profession of it? |
A53721 | Or are you so under the power of your Lusts, Ignorance, and Darkness, that you neglect and despise them? |
A53721 | Or by what other wayes or means have you come to that acquaintance with it, whereof you boast? |
A53721 | Or did you receive it from and by some seasonable word, of, or from the Scriptures spoken unto you? |
A53721 | Or do you not hope well in Generall upon the account of what you have done, and will doe? |
A53721 | Or have you general thoughts that Christ dyed for finners? |
A53721 | Or is it never fall totally from God? |
A53721 | Our sins are upon us, we pine away in them, and how should we then live? |
A53721 | Particular troublesome reflections upon your selves, when on any eruption of sin, Conscience accuses, rebukes, condemns? |
A53721 | Reason stands by amazed, and cryes how can these things be? |
A53721 | Saith such a soul in its self; foolish creature, hast thou thus requited the Lord? |
A53721 | Saith such a soul, How excellent, how precious is this forgiveness that is with God? |
A53721 | Secondly, But may not this Judge be intreated to pass by what he knows, and to deal favourably with the sinner? |
A53721 | Shall I curse God and dye? |
A53721 | Shall I do more than ever he required of any of the Sons of men? |
A53721 | Shall I take the course of the world, and seeing it will be no better, be wholly regardless of my latter end? |
A53721 | Shall all this be done for our sakes, and shall we undervalue it, or disesteem it? |
A53721 | Shall he not believe, or profess those things to be so, because he can not obtaine a blessed Experience of them? |
A53721 | Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right? |
A53721 | Shall she give over waiting on God, and say there is no hope? |
A53721 | Shall we call him unto an account? |
A53721 | Sinners are under the power of Satan; he layes a claim unto them, and by what means shall they be rescued from his interest and dominion? |
A53721 | So doth such a soul; the Love of God is not, Christ is not, and I whither shall I cause my sorrow to go? |
A53721 | Some we find crying with that wicked King, This evil is of the Lord, why should we wait any longer for him? |
A53721 | Such as he will not do often nor ordinarily; such as shall fill the world with dread and amazement: He will answer his people in terrible things? |
A53721 | Suppose this also; Let us go a little further and enquire whether you know any thing that yet remains of the like importance in this matter? |
A53721 | Suppose you are strangers to this also: What communion with God have you had about it in the blood of Christ? |
A53721 | That it should be an endeavour needless, or superfluous, to inquire into the Will of God about, and our own interest in these things, who can imagine? |
A53721 | That you would seriously consider, whether the forgiveness you rest on, and hope in, be that Gospel Forgiveness which we have before described? |
A53721 | The Indefiniteness of that Interrogation; Who shall stand? |
A53721 | The Law it knows; and Righteousness it knows, but as for forgiveness it sayes, whence is it? |
A53721 | The Rise and Spring of our forgiveness is in the heart and Gracious Nature of God, declared by his Name; Have you enquired seriously into this? |
A53721 | The Terms of it are unequall, how can any man believe them? |
A53721 | The last Lords day, such a one, or such a one preached to the same purpose; And what need it be insisted on now again, with so much importunity? |
A53721 | The sinner can not then expect any door of escape to be opened unto him? |
A53721 | The sinners in Sion are afraid, fearfulness hath surprised the Hypocrites; who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? |
A53721 | The soul in this frame is contented to wait the pleasure of God, as we shall see in the close of the Psalm? |
A53721 | The wayes of Wisdom are pleasantness, and her paths are peace? |
A53721 | Then shall you remember your own evil wayes, and your doings that were not good; When shall they do so? |
A53721 | There being no forgiveness for them, what should move them to repent? |
A53721 | These things are plainly, openly, frequently insisted on in the Gospel? |
A53721 | This is called speaking against God; they spake against God; they said, Can he furnish a Table in the wilderness? |
A53721 | This makes him tremble, and cry out, O Lord who shall stand? |
A53721 | This was the Way whereby he rose out of his depths and escaped out of his entanglements? |
A53721 | Thou numbrest my steps, dost thou not watch over my sin? |
A53721 | Thoughts of sinning against the Love of God, managed by the Holy Ghost; what shall I say? |
A53721 | Thy houses are burned, but perhaps thy goods are saved; is there no grace, no goodness therein? |
A53721 | To have no other Reception with God, than if all this while you had been wallowing in your sins and lusts? |
A53721 | To have pardon, forgiveness, life, and blessed Eternity on believing, who can rest in it? |
A53721 | To what end doth the Lord set forth and declare his glorious Greatness and Power? |
A53721 | To what end? |
A53721 | Upon the death of her Son, which it seems was some what extraordinary, she cryed out unto the Prophet, What have I to do with thee thou Man of God? |
A53721 | Was it by preaching of the Word unto you, or by reading of it, or meditating upon it? |
A53721 | Was it by vertue of any especial personal priviledge that was peculiar unto them? |
A53721 | Was there any Reason, why he should do so, designing to do all things for himself and for his own glory? |
A53721 | We come with our Report of forgiveness; but who believes it? |
A53721 | We must say then unto such heartless Complainers, as God did to Joshuah, Get you up, why lye you thus upon your faces? |
A53721 | Well may poor sinners cry out, Lord who shall stand? |
A53721 | Well then, if God will hasten it, may not we hasten to it? |
A53721 | Well, what shall be the issue thereof? |
A53721 | What Argument doth he make use of to free them from their unbelief, and to rebuke their fears? |
A53721 | What a life of Joy, Rest, Peace, and Consolation do they lead? |
A53721 | What an easie thing is it to be acquainted with it? |
A53721 | What are his thoughts hereupon? |
A53721 | What are these joyful tydings? |
A53721 | What ayles the Man? |
A53721 | What can remain of distrust in such a case? |
A53721 | What can these thoughts and counsels be, but about a way for their deliverance, which could no otherwise be, but by the forgiveness of sins? |
A53721 | What can we now object against what is thus confirmed? |
A53721 | What course did you take? |
A53721 | What course then shall she take? |
A53721 | What course will you fix upon, for the obtaining of these Ends? |
A53721 | What did he aim at and design? |
A53721 | What dismal darkness and disconsolation, yea, what utter ruine should I be left unto? |
A53721 | What do I think of Ordinances? |
A53721 | What doth he call them unto? |
A53721 | What for the most part have you hitherto been conversant about? |
A53721 | What further can any soul desire? |
A53721 | What great sin, crime, or offence is in this enquiry? |
A53721 | What greater can be given? |
A53721 | What ground is left of questioning the Truth in hand? |
A53721 | What ground remains for unbelief to stand upon in this matter? |
A53721 | What hath any soul in the World to object against them? |
A53721 | What have you to say to these things? |
A53721 | What if I should have so grieved him that he will dwell in me no more, delight in me no more? |
A53721 | What is a Church? |
A53721 | What is it that the Scripture calls for in your condition? |

A53721 | What is the issue? |
A53721 | What is the matter with all this roaring, sighing, tears, roaring all the day, all night long? |
A53721 | What is the reason that controversies hang so long between God and your souls, that it may be you scarce see a good day all your lives? |
A53721 | What is the usual course that is taken in such complaints by them to whom they are made? |
A53721 | What is their common deportment in reference unto it? |
A53721 | What link of this Chain can unbelief break in, or upon? |
A53721 | What now have the most of men, who are confident in the profession of this faith, to say unto this thing? |
A53721 | What now if God should deprive us of all these things? |
A53721 | What pretence, colour, or excuse can we have for our unbelief? |
A53721 | What say they unto a poor guilty sinner? |
A53721 | What shall I do to be saved, is the utmost it aims at, Who shall deliver me, how shall I escape? |
A53721 | What shall be the end of them that obey not the Gospel? |
A53721 | What shall be the end of them that obey not the Gospel? |

A53721 | What shall we say after this? |
A53721 | What shall we say concerning the Heavens over us, and all these creatures of Light that have their habitations in them? |

A53721 | What was his intention in submitting unto, and undergoing the Will of God in these things? |

A53721 | What was the matter of this report? |
A53721 | What was then his State and Condition? |
A53721 | What was wanting that made all that they did abominable? |
A53721 | What way then, what remedy is left unto us? |
A53721 | What will you doe? |
A53721 | What, because God can not pardon them, it is not possible with him? |
A53721 | When he giveth quietness, who can give trouble? |
A53721 | When it is, as it were, laid out of the way by sin and unbelief, do they give themselves no rest, untill it be afresh discovered unto them? |
A53721 | When was this done? |
A53721 | Whence is it then that there is such a bleating and bellowing to the contrary amongst them? |
A53721 | Whence then is it said, that God appeared unto them by the name of Elshaddai, but not by the name of Jehovah? |
A53721 | Whence therefore doth it appear, whence may we infallibly conclude, that God will redeem his Israel from all their iniquities? |
A53721 | Where have you found ease and peace? |
A53721 | Where is he, and what doth he? |
A53721 | Where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear? |
A53721 | Where then is Boasting? |
A53721 | Wherefore did this glorious Son of God come and Tabernacle amongst poor sinners? |
A53721 | Wherefore doth he reject and lay aside this Covenant and Promise to make another, and do so accordingly? |
A53721 | Wherefore the Law is holy, and the commandment holy and just and good; was then that which was good made death unto me? |
A53721 | Wherewith shall I come before the Lord, and how my self before the high God? |
A53721 | Who amongst us shall dwell with everlasting burnings? |
A53721 | Who can stand? |
A53721 | Who can stand? |
A53721 | Who hath given first unto him that it should be recompenced unto him again? |
A53721 | Who is not in hopes, in expectation of pardon? |
A53721 | Who is this that thus bespeaks you? |
A53721 | Who shall undertake to umpire the business, the controversie between God and Sinners? |
A53721 | Who thinks not that they know well enough at least what it is, if they might but obtain it? |
A53721 | Whom did God send about this business? |
A53721 | Whose Conscience almost is burdened with this as a sin, that he doth not as he ought, believe the forgiveness of his sins? |
A53721 | Why had such one help and I none? |
A53721 | Why my house, not my neighbours? |
A53721 | Why sayest thou O Jacob, and speakest O Israel, my way is hid from the Lord, and my judgement is passed over from my God? |
A53721 | Why should any one have a thought of compassion towards them, who despise the compassion of God? |
A53721 | Why should it be their duty so to do? |
A53721 | Why the City, not the Suburbs? |
A53721 | Why what ayled you, what was the matter with you; seeing as to the outward things you were in Peace? |
A53721 | Why where is the defect? |
A53721 | Why, saith he? |
A53721 | Why, they have nothing to lead them into the mysterious depths of eternal Love, of the blood of Christ, and Promises of the Gospel? |
A53721 | Will Christ pray that they may find favour with him? |
A53721 | Will he not frequently satisfie himself that it is safe? |
A53721 | Will he now deny that unto us, which he hath given such Assurance of, and raised such expectations concerning it? |
A53721 | Will it do me any good to be at Jerusalem, and not see the face of the King? |
A53721 | Will it relieve me? |
A53721 | Will not the dread of his Excellency fall upon us? |
A53721 | Will we continue on the old bottom of the first Covenant? |
A53721 | Will what was once Grace, ever become Wantonness? |
A53721 | Will you yet account the blood of the Covenant to be a common thing? |
A53721 | Without a perswasion hereof how can a man on grounds of faith carry himself towards God as his Father? |
A53721 | Would he not bestir himself with all his might, and call in all the help he could obtain? |
A53721 | Would he not by so doing prove himself to be the greatest of them? |
A53721 | Would it not change the whole frame of the spirit of such a man, and as it were put new life into him? |
A53721 | Would you be made partakers of this forgiveness? |
A53721 | Would you have all that you do towards God, a delight and pleasantness unto you? |
A53721 | Yea, and let him be accursed; for what can be more required to justifie God in his eternal destruction? |
A53721 | You believe there is forgiveness with God; Yes, but have you been convinced of sin? |
A53721 | You have taken away my Gods, saith he, and what have I more? |
A53721 | You will say then, What shall a man do who can not find or obtain an experience in himself of what is affirmed in the Word? |
A53721 | You will say then, do you condemn this manner of proceeding with the souls of men in their doubts, fears and distresses? |
A53721 | and by what means? |
A53721 | and have not all ages been filled with such instances of his Greatness and Power? |
A53721 | and how are they performed? |
A53721 | and how many are ruined by them every day? |
A53721 | and if he be, why do we not subscribe unto his wayes, and submit quietly unto his Will? |
A53721 | and if it were otherwise could men possibly be more frustrated or deceived? |
A53721 | and if we know nothing at all of these things, as indeed we do not, were it not best for us to leave them quietly unto Gods disposal? |
A53721 | and may he not do what he will with his own? |
A53721 | and sent out fire from the Altar to devour Nadab and Abibu? |
A53721 | and shall we complain of Gods dispensations about them? |
A53721 | and shall we then repine against it? |
A53721 | and shall we think that this is the whole design of the Patience of God? |
A53721 | and what mean thoughts are entertained about it, when men seek for pardon? |
A53721 | and when he hideth his face, who can behold him? |
A53721 | are any Complaints ready to break out of our mouths? |
A53721 | are they influenced from this Faith of forgiveness you boast of or no? |
A53721 | are your complaints of want of an Interest in forgiveness, a sanctified means to obtain it? |
A53721 | because it is so affirmed in the Gospel: How then, doth he find it to be so? |
A53721 | but, who can stand? |
A53721 | by the Promise of the Gospel? |
A53721 | by whom is it received? |
A53721 | can he give flesh unto his people? |
A53721 | can not we wait under his present dispensations? |
A53721 | do any repining thoughts against the works of God arise in our hearts? |
A53721 | do we know what state, what condition will most further our Obedience, best obviate our temptations, or call most on us to mortifie our Corruptions? |
A53721 | doth he despond, and give over? |
A53721 | doth he think to fly from God, and to give over all endeavours of recovery? |
A53721 | doth he think to reap so soon as he hath sown? |
A53721 | doth it answer all the wants and distresses of your souls? |
A53721 | doth not the nature of the thing require humble waiting? |
A53721 | doth not this render Obedience, Holiness, Duties, Mortification of sin, and good works, needless? |
A53721 | doth she make use of her former excuses and pretences, why she could not engage into the duties she was called unto? |
A53721 | either to delude them if they do pray according to his command, or to involve them in further guilt, if they do not? |
A53721 | hath he no other purpose but meerly to forbear them a while in their folly, and then to avenge himself upon them? |
A53721 | have they given you delight in God, and strength unto new obedience? |
A53721 | have they made you more holy, and more humble? |
A53721 | have you been by any means delivered, or did your trouble wear off, and depart of its own accord? |
A53721 | his only design? |
A53721 | is it not the principle of spiritual life, whereof thou art partaker? |
A53721 | is it not, the new Creature? |
A53721 | is it that we should by the difficulty included in them, be discouraged and kept from him? |
A53721 | it is excluded; by what Law? |
A53721 | leave them in darkness, vailed, undiscovered, satisfying himself in the glory of those Properties which his work of Creation had made known? |
A53721 | must we pine away under our sins and the wrath of God for ever? |
A53721 | never silent, never hold his peace? |
A53721 | now he is gone; he is withdrawn from thee, and what wilt thou do? |
A53721 | or I see a little grass in the blade, but no corn, I will give it to the beasts to devour it? |
A53721 | or Jacob, when he said, My way is hid from the Lord, and my Judgement is passed over from my God? |
A53721 | or cry this evil is of the Lord, why should I wait for him any longer? |
A53721 | or did also effectually pursue it, and not faint, until he had made a way for the exercise of forgiveness? |
A53721 | or did he faint under it? |
A53721 | or doth he immediately say, I have laboured in vain, here is no return, I will pull up the hedge of this field and lay it waste? |
A53721 | or have you any thing to object against it? |
A53721 | or if they do so, what shall give them countenance, in their so doing? |
A53721 | or is it only a General Apprehension of Impunity, though you are Sinners? |
A53721 | or of mercy towards them who trample on the blood of Christ? |
A53721 | or perhaps thy substance also is consumed, but yet thy person is alive; and should a living man complain? |
A53721 | or shall he hide himself from him, and so avoid the effects of his wrath? |
A53721 | or wherein do men repose their Trust and Confidence in the neglect of this so great Salvation? |
A53721 | or whether we shall obtain it, if we address our selves unto him for to be made partakers of it? |
A53721 | or would you have them pine away under the sense of their condition, or abide in this uncertainty all their daies? |
A53721 | seeing as yet they were not? |
A53721 | shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with Calves of a year old? |
A53721 | shall I give my first born for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul? |
A53721 | shall a man be more pure than his Maker? |
A53721 | shall he contend with him? |
A53721 | shall he despise his wrath and anger, and contemn his threatnings? |
A53721 | shall he harden himself against him? |
A53721 | shall we desire your salvation with the despoyling God of his honour? |
A53721 | shall we not think his way best, and his time best, and that our duty is to be silent before him? |
A53721 | shall we preferre you above his Glory? |
A53721 | shall you be delivered? |
A53721 | that opened the Earth to swallow up Dathan and Abiram? |
A53721 | that we can live at a better rate without a sense of the love of God in Christ, than he could do? |
A53721 | that which we have been treating about? |
A53721 | to live under Ordinances, and not to meet in them with the King of Saints? |
A53721 | was he bound to desert his own Institution and Appointment, because through our own default it ceased to be profitable unto us? |
A53721 | was that her true Condition whereof she was so perswaded, as to profess it unto all? |
A53721 | what are we before the Eternal God? |
A53721 | what course doth he take? |
A53721 | what did Sion get when she cried, The Lord hath forsaken me, and my God hath forgotten me? |
A53721 | what end or issue was put to them? |
A53721 | what is his life? |
A53721 | what is his strength? |
A53721 | what was the fainting which he had been overtaken withall without the supportment mentioned? |
A53721 | who can conceive the beauty, order, use and course of them? |
A53721 | who knows not how ruinous and pernitious to the soul such courses would be? |
A53721 | who shall say unto him, what dost thou? |
A53721 | why go I mourning because of the oppression of mine enemy? |
A53721 | why he must unto God for pardon; but what shall he rely upon to encourage him in his so doing? |
A53721 | why is it urged with so much earnestness? |
A53721 | why lye you upon your faces? |
A53721 | will not his terrour make us afraid? |
A53721 | will the Lord be pleased with thousands of Ramms, or with ten thousands of Rivers of Oyl? |
A53721 | will you yet neglect his offers? |
A53721 | will your latter end be peace? |
A53721 | would not the Institution of Repentance be a lye? |
A53721 | 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 poor, miserable, frail, mortal man, as the word signifies; what is man? |

A30574 | ( But now Habakkuk, why would you trouble your self with so much fear?) |
A30574 | ( or, for us?) |
A30574 | * Chrysostom hath another expression: A Covetous man( saith he) is not delighted with the beauty of Heaven, nor with the motion of the Sun: why? |
A30574 | 1, 2. there you shall find an Altar of Shittim wood overlaid with Brass; you will say, Why was the first with earth and the other with brass? |
A30574 | 1. you have a remarkable Scripture for this, saith the text there, And the Anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel: and what then? |
A30574 | 11. where did they find Manasses? |
A30574 | 14. there you reade, that the Lord is so eager to have the first things? |
A30574 | 14. when the people did offer so much to God for the building of his Tabernacle, Mark how David was affected with it, Who am I( saith David?) |
A30574 | 2. saith David, I will behave my self wisely in a perfect way; O when wilt thou come unto me? |
A30574 | 20 God will put a hook in his nostrils; now who would be afraid of a beast that hath a hook put into his nostrils? |
A30574 | 3. we have a Scripture paralel to this, What will you do in the day of visitation? |
A30574 | 38. saith Zebul, Where now is thy mouth wherewith thou saidest, Who is Abimelech? |

A30574 | But now the Papists will say, If ye beleeve not our words, how can ye beleeve their writings? |

A30574 | Yea, but do you seek God that you may be fruitful? |
A30574 | Yea, but it may be said, How were the people that were living now, guilty of this? |
A30574 | Yea, but saith the holy Ghost here by the Prophet, But what will you do? |
A30574 | Yea, but still the Objection will be, How could it be a sin to cast down those Altars when they were of no further Religious use? |
A30574 | You can rejoyce now when you are in a Tavern, but in the day of Tribulation, when a dismal day shall come to the world, what will you do then? |

A30574 | You wil say, Why should children suffer for their parents sins? |
A30574 | You will say, Can we look upon any thing as a reward of our righteousness? |
A30574 | You will say, How can this be? |
A30574 | You will say, Who are those that will deal with God in a way of Recompence? |
A30574 | Your hearts have been all in a tumult, hath the Lord delivered you? |
A30574 | Your sin is greater; why? |
A30574 | and doest thou say, that thy wickedness is no other than the wickedness of thy forefathers? |
A30574 | and shall the Devil reap? |
A30574 | and so all kind of evil and sin that would stick so fast upon us? |
A30574 | and the other saith, why should not I have the glory of it? |
A30574 | and those that have most appeared in the Cause of God, how are they discountenanced? |
A30574 | and what are you that you must have ease and content more than others? |

A30574 | our projects begin to bud, and they thrive bravely, may they not bless themselves now? |
A30574 | pray what''s our sin? |

A30574 | when all this is the matter of your joy, what an unreasonable thing is this? |
A30574 | when the way is apparently Gods, why should we be so fickle and unsteadie as we are almost alwaies in the way of God? |

A30574 | why, wherein are we greater than other people? |
A30574 | why? |
A30574 | will one plow there with Oxen? |
A30574 | with what blindness, and madness, and astonishment are the people of the Land smote? |
A30574 | yea, shall we be used to punish Oppression and Tyranny, and Injustice, and shall we continue in Oppression, Tyranny, and Injustice? |
A30574 | you can not go to God, then the very thoughts of God must needs be terrible to you, and then what will you do? |
A30575 | ''T is a speech of Chrysostom, Why doest thou despise, and despight God in this, in bringing unclean things to him? |
A30575 | ( saith the Scripture) or what profit is there of Circumcision? |
A30575 | ( speaking of riches) Now it is according to the Hebrew, Will ye make your eyes to fly upon that which is not? |
A30575 | 1. Who is this, that cometh from Edom? |
A30575 | 13. saith he, Their fear towards me is taught by the precepts of men: What then? |
A30575 | 13. when he appeared to Jacob, what said he to him? |
A30575 | 14. there it''s spoken of God, that he did wonders and marvellous things; What are those wonders and marvellous things? |
A30575 | 17. he calls him his Enemy, saying to Michel, Why hast thou sent away mine Enemy? |
A30575 | 22. which is spoken in reference to their way, coming out of their captivity; How long wilt thou go about, O thou backsliding daughter? |
A30575 | 28. we reade of one Gaal the son of Ebed, who said, Who is Abimelech? |
A30575 | 333 Cords Cords of a man, what? |
A30575 | 4 It''s great confusion to carnal hearts when they shall be asked, Where''s their confidences? |
A30575 | 4. Who hath hardened himself against him and hath prospered? |
A30575 | 4. saith he, The Nations shal hear al these Statutes, and say, Surely this great Nation is a wise and understanding people,( why?) |
A30575 | 4? |
A30575 | 5. he speaks of Christ there cleerly, and saith, To which of the Angels bath he said, Thou art my son, this day have I begotten thee? |
A30575 | 7. hath he smitten him, as he smot those that smit him? |
A30575 | 7. saith God there, Are ye not as the children of the Ethiopians unto me? |
A30575 | 7. the text saith, That in the daies of his flesh he offered up prayers and supplications,( how?) |
A30575 | 8. Who are those that fly as a cloud, and as the Doves to their windows? |
A30575 | 8. when those Hypocrits had said, What shall we do? |
A30575 | A Ninth Observation is this; you see when God, though he threatned very sorely, and charges deeply, yet, How shall I do this? |
A30575 | Again, I come to enjoy abundance here in the Creature: But is there not danger, is there not a snare in what I do enjoy? |
A30575 | Am I not a Reprobate? |
A30575 | And Drusius he reades it Interogatively, Who hath destroyed thee? |
A30575 | And Pareus he read it, Against thy help, and so supplies the word, Thou hast rebelled against thy help, Oh thou hast destroyed thy help; Why? |
A30575 | And did not God deal honorably with them? |
A30575 | And he said unto them, What have I done now in comparison of you? |
A30575 | And if ever you have need of God again, how will conscience be stop''d? |
A30575 | And is it so? |
A30575 | And it may be for a time you seem to have some patience; But hath Patience had her perfect work in you? |
A30575 | And my brethren, this is not meant meerly of the times of the Law; for this anger of God upon them is to this very day? |
A30575 | And shewed you how that all those that had to deal with men to draw them to God should do as God doth, labor to draw them with Bonds of Love? |
A30575 | And sixtly, Doth the love of God to his people begin so soon? |
A30575 | And so we were going to most vile and abominable Idolatry, but by what steps? |
A30575 | And then Secondly, How will the shame and confusion of men be aggravated hereafter, which did disregard Gods using of them in an honorable way? |
A30575 | And then Thirdly, Is this Gods way? |
A30575 | And then secondly, But would you know whether God would love you? |
A30575 | And therefore they translate it so, How shall I protect thee? |
A30575 | And this is the reason that your Goal- birds never com to any good almost; Why? |
A30575 | And this waiting is of very great use to those that are turning to God, Consider of it, Is any of you about the work of turning to God? |
A30575 | And thus much for those words, How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? |
A30575 | And why may not the Lord that hath brought us out of Egypt, bring us to rejoyce as in the feast of Tabernacles? |
A30575 | And why? |
A30575 | And yet can not thy heart be overturned, nor tremble? |
A30575 | And you can not better your self: Whither wilt thou go, poor soul? |
A30575 | And you that would fain have more and more, have you digested what you have had? |
A30575 | And you who were so poor in the wilderness, depending on me for every bit of bread; yet after when you were fed, how proud and wanton grew you? |
A30575 | Are not they thy People? |
A30575 | Are not you grown flat, dead, and drossie, and carnal now more than before? |
A30575 | Are they not those that I have had sweet converse with, and experience of their godliness? |
A30575 | Art thou come to call my sin to remembrance, and to slay my son? |
A30575 | As here in a Kingdom, so in an Estate, Hast thou a little Estate, yea, but hast thou it with God? |
A30575 | As if he should have said, what a case had you been in, if I had not delivered you out of Egypt, from the Iron furnace, a low, base imployment? |
A30575 | As if he should say, I am the same God that ever I was, but where is your King that should save you in your Cities? |
A30575 | As if he should say, Lord, how will thy promise be fulfill''d? |
A30575 | Asked them, Where''s all your Bravery, and Pride, and Rage? |
A30575 | At that time when Forces were raised( before the Parliament) against our Brethren of Scotland, then said the Lord, How shall I give thee up? |
A30575 | Baal- zephon what? |
A30575 | But I rather take it thus; Who shall find iniquity in me that were any great matter? |
A30575 | But can we say, that according to our green Pastures that God leads us in, so are we filled? |
A30575 | But how did he prevail? |
A30575 | But how doth the Prophet make use of this Title of God, The Lord of Hosts? |
A30575 | But how in the midst, when they so vile, and cast off from being his people, a sink of Idolatry and wickedness? |
A30575 | But how was this true? |
A30575 | But if you make a stop there, I will be, your King; where is he that shall save you in your Cities? |
A30575 | But it may be demanded: When are Kings and Princes given in anger? |
A30575 | But it''s better if men before they have sinned would say, How shall I do it? |
A30575 | But now, doth not this argue God to be a God of ridgedness and severity? |
A30575 | But then Secondly, Why is Jacob mentioned in this place? |
A30575 | But they might say, Do not we turn to God? |
A30575 | But to another it''s nothing, What, Shall the Ministry of the Word countervail the loss of my estate? |
A30575 | But what''s the meaning of this,( you will say?) |
A30575 | But when was this? |
A30575 | But where are they, saith God? |
A30575 | But will he be such a Savior to me, in my condition? |
A30575 | But you should consider what though such and such opinions and waies will serve my turn, will they not be burdens to others? |
A30575 | But you wil ask me, What''s the reason that nothing would satisfie them but a King and Nobles? |
A30575 | But you wil say, Why doth God express himself thus? |
A30575 | But you will say, He can love, I but, Will He love? |
A30575 | But you will say, They are so wicked that how can I hope to have love from them? |
A30575 | But, how shall I make thee as Admah and Zeboim? |
A30575 | By way of Interogation some reade it thus, What shall I the Lord that brought thee out of the Land of Egypt make thee to dwell in Tabernacles? |
A30575 | Can any God work for you so as I have done? |
A30575 | Can you mend your self any way? |
A30575 | Can you stand it out with God? |
A30575 | Canst thou say, Oh Righteous Father? |
A30575 | Convert A true Convert, what? |
A30575 | Covetousness it is a beforting sin, it is a blinding sin; Who shall find any iniquity in me? |
A30575 | Cur Domine eū ficisti Imperatorum? |
A30575 | Dangerous A dangerous sign of Reprobation 544 Deceiptful dealers Deceiptful dealers, see Excuses Decree Decree, what it is? |
A30575 | Did he not name wild beasts enough before? |
A30575 | Did not God approve of it? |
A30575 | Did not God fight for them before? |
A30575 | Did not God gain upon your hearts in a gentle way? |
A30575 | Did not all say, even at the first year when the Wars began, Surely things would be very scarce? |
A30575 | Did not that terrifie him? |
A30575 | Do not we see how fast we run towards destruction, being but a little left to our selves, what a perverse spirit is there now among our selves? |
A30575 | Do ye provoke the Lord to jealousie? |
A30575 | Do you expect that Gods heart should work strongly towards you to do you good, and yet nothing stir in you? |
A30575 | Do your souls worship God, and sanctifie the Name of God in all your waies? |
A30575 | Doest thou profess any interest in God? |
A30575 | Doest thou think that another mans evil may be an excuse to thy evil? |
A30575 | Doth God at any time melt thy heart, and make thee apprehensive of thy need of mercy? |
A30575 | Doth God call you, and you not answer to him? |
A30575 | Doth God put a difference between Reprobates and his People in punishment? |
A30575 | Doth a Fountain send forth, at the same place, sweet water, and bitter? |
A30575 | Doth it become the Captain of our salvation in his seeking of God to weep? |
A30575 | Doth not Judah do so aswel as we? |
A30575 | Doth thy conscience tell thee that there hath been a time wherein God hath been displeased with thee, the anger of God hath burst out against thee? |
A30575 | Everie fool may do mischief to himself, yea, and to others, but can he help? |
A30575 | Examin I beseech you, when you were low any of you, say, had you not more of Gods presence with you then, than you have now? |
A30575 | Excellency Excellency of the Name JEHOVAH 293 Excellency of Gods saving 449 Exalted We should not be exalted by prosperity, and why? |
A30575 | First, How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? |
A30575 | First, How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? |
A30575 | For First, What low and mean things are they? |
A30575 | For my love, they are my adversaries( but what then?) |
A30575 | For so it is, Where is your King that should save you in your Cities? |
A30575 | For the Answer: That which before was said, will give sufficient answer to it, How shall I make thee as Admah, and Zeboim? |
A30575 | Fourthly, How shall I s ● t thee as Zeboim? |
A30575 | Fourthly, Now I come to enjoy abundance, What''s the rule that God hath set in the Word for the ordering of my heart in what I do enjoy? |
A30575 | Further, I have abundance; but what uncertainty is there in all these things? |
A30575 | God doth seem as it were to be at a stand, How shall I do to save these sinners, and yet not to wrong my self? |
A30575 | God gives me abundance of the creature, but what is Gods end? |
A30575 | God knows that many times it was ready to sink, and if I had left off, what had become of me? |
A30575 | God made his glory pass by him, and what was it? |
A30575 | God might without any more ado pardon, and help, or deliver, why should he express himself in this manner? |
A30575 | God, what God? |
A30575 | Gods mercy is his own; If God wil destroy Admah and Zeboim eternally; who can say against Gods dealings with them? |

A30575 | Have not you found this fruit of the Ministry of the Word in your hearts, calling you many a time to the most high God? |
A30575 | Have you to deal with stony hearts? |
A30575 | He lets them have them, but how? |
A30575 | He tells also of the Bishop of Thebais, being proud because advanced: Had these words spoken to him: Wherefore miserable man art thou proud? |
A30575 | He went on frowardly when I smote him; what then? |
A30575 | Hence let us learn what to do when any temptation comes to any sin: What, is it thus with God? |
A30575 | Here we have in your books four[ How''s] How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? |
A30575 | His Lord] What is God the Lord of this people? |
A30575 | How comes it to pass that Israel is dealt withall so as he is? |
A30575 | How doth the Work of God seem against his Word in appearance? |
A30575 | How fair and how pleasant art thou, O Love, for delights? |
A30575 | How fair and how pleasant is Love? |
A30575 | How few Country Villages about the City were supplied with faithful Preachers? |
A30575 | How foolish were they, to forsake the blessed God, to worship Calves? |
A30575 | How if these should prove to be temptations to me to draw my heart from God; were I not better be without them? |
A30575 | How many mens hearts and waies are so different from what they seem''d to be? |
A30575 | How often when men have been willing to give any thing to God, God hath made it up in one yeer? |
A30575 | How shall I deliver thee, Israel? |
A30575 | How shall I deliver thee, Israel? |
A30575 | How shall I deliver thee? |
A30575 | How shall I do it, saith God? |

A30575 | How shall I protect thee, Israel? |
A30575 | How shall I set thee as Zeboim? |
A30575 | How shall I set thee as Zeboim? |
A30575 | How shall it be for mine honor that thou shouldest be under my protection? |
A30575 | How to know whether God will love us or no? |
A30575 | How we may know when God takes away and not in wrath? |
A30575 | How weak is thy heart, saith the Lord, seeing thou doest all these things, the work of an imperious whorish woman? |
A30575 | How? |
A30575 | How? |
A30575 | I am infinitly above man: Wherein O Lord art thou above them? |
A30575 | I am that I am, or, I will be what I will be; so saith God here, I am Lord, I will be; but then where is your King? |
A30575 | I am yet what ever I seemed to be to you, why are you so perverse and untoward towards me? |
A30575 | I can not beat it whoever provokes me, why should I think that the infinite God should bear with me when I provoke him? |
A30575 | I confess in the Hebrew there are but two, but yet for the sense of it the Interpreters put in the other, and they have the sense of four, How? |
A30575 | I have it now, but how quickly may it be gone? |
A30575 | I have loved you, saith the Lord; yet ye say, Wherein hast thou loved us? |
A30575 | I have much, Oh but considering how little service I do for God, may not I fear that this I have it is to be my portion? |
A30575 | I have much, but have I not much engagements with what I do enjoy? |
A30575 | I may vent my self, but what good may come of it? |
A30575 | I say, this confounding[ Where] will be asked to every wicked and ungodly man: What will they be able to say then? |
A30575 | I see infirmities in them, I, but notwithstanding my great sins, God saith of me, How shall I give thee up? |
A30575 | I shall have the glory of my Justice; I, but it will be but passively: And will that be much, to have the glory of Justice in a passive way? |
A30575 | I will be thy King: Where is any other that may save thee in all thy Cities? |
A30575 | If I buy a commodity and sell it again, what oppression can there be? |
A30575 | If a man comes to a Table and eats, and then he swels presently upon it, God be merciful to me, am I poisoned, saith he? |
A30575 | If a man were to go and chuse a Wife, if he knew her face were painted, would he conclude, Surely here''s one of an excellent complexion? |
A30575 | If indeed Israel could have said thus, You indeed complain of our false worship, Who doth otherwise? |
A30575 | If the Ox be but fed, he knows his Owner: Who is it that feeds you? |
A30575 | If we enquire what that way is? |
A30575 | If you ask me what were those Bonds of Love that God drew this people of Israel unto Himself by? |
A30575 | In the Fourth place, Sin puts God to a stand; How shall I do it? |
A30575 | Indeed the words may carry it, Who shall find iniquity in me? |
A30575 | Is Ephraim my dear Son? |
A30575 | Is Ephraim my dear son? |
A30575 | Is Israel a Servant? |
A30575 | Is Israel a Servant? |
A30575 | Is it not better to have the Russet Coat that is not dangerous, than a Velvet Coat that hath the Plague in it? |
A30575 | Is it not folly to provoke a man that is a Superior, that hath power over you, and can crush you? |
A30575 | Is it not from the free Grace of God in chusing one rather than the other,& that in the very womb? |
A30575 | Is it not possible why there should be some other grounds why they differ from their brethren, but meerly stiff- neckedness? |
A30575 | Is not Judah as bad as we? |
A30575 | Is not our God a gracious God, and a merciful God? |
A30575 | Is not the gleaning of the Grapes of Ephraim better than the vintage of Abiezer? |
A30575 | Is there iniquitie in Gilead? |
A30575 | Is there iniquity in Gilead? |
A30575 | Is there iniquity in Gilead? |
A30575 | Is there that good to be got in those waies of sin as there is in mine? |

A30575 | Is this the Savior of the World? |
A30575 | Is this the merciful God? |
A30575 | Is this the same God that spake so of Ephraim heretofore? |
A30575 | It follows; How shall I make thee as Admah, and set thee as Zeboim? |
A30575 | It is a vain conceit of people to think thus, God loves me, why? |
A30575 | It is my child, though stuborn, why may it not return? |
A30575 | It is your foolish, wilful stubornness, going on in such a vile, finful way that puts God to such a stand; What shall I do? |
A30575 | It may be in a way of aggravation of their sin and stubbornness, Why doest not thou come in to me? |
A30575 | It may be there is som of you that are very just, yea, but what worship of God is there in your Families, and in your own hearts? |
A30575 | It were well my brethren, if men after they have sinned would say, Oh, what have I done? |
A30575 | It''s true, we have suffered something, yea, but hath not God wrought good out of our sufferings? |
A30575 | Joshuah he was of the Tribe of Ephraim, and when Joshua spake, what trembling was there among all the people? |
A30575 | Just like to the plea that some heretofore have had, What, do not our Ministers do thus? |
A30575 | Mark the answer there: How can it be quiet, seeing the Lord hath given it a charge? |
A30575 | Mark, all the Nations that are about you shall say, What Nation is there so wise, that hath Statutes and Judgments like this Nation? |
A30575 | Mens inventions are low things, are base and unworthy things, Oh consider whether thou findest this in the Worship of God? |
A30575 | My Brethren, What are we but almost like Egypt this day? |
A30575 | My brethren, let us search our hearts; there was a great forwardness of Reformation in the beginning of the Parliament, then how did men stir? |
A30575 | Now my brethren, all this I have done to that end, that your hearts may be gained unto God; And what wilt thou do now? |
A30575 | Now what a difference is there in the hearts of men in these daies? |
A30575 | Now what abundance hath God wrought by deferring what we would have had? |
A30575 | Now when Christ ascended up to be crowned on high, What was the great thing that he gave in the world? |
A30575 | Now you are seeking God, you have not what you would have, Whither will you go? |
A30575 | Now you will say, What doth the holy Ghost mean here? |
A30575 | O thou Sword of the Lord, How long will it be ere thou be quiet? |
A30575 | Oh but you will say, Why do you speak thus? |
A30575 | Or as some others reade it, What shall I do to thee? |
A30575 | Or if you take it as it is in your books, How shall I give thee up? |
A30575 | Or it may be people would speak thus to the Prophet, Oh why do you speak of God in this terrible manner? |
A30575 | Parents are charged not so much as to provoke their Children to wrath; And wilt thou provoke God then? |
A30575 | Prisoners that are chained at a Post, they are altogether all the day long: But would you have such a kind of union, to be united with such chains? |
A30575 | Q But how doth this concern us? |
A30575 | Samuel could appeal to them, Whose Ox, or Ass have I taken? |
A30575 | Secondly, How shall I deliver thee, Israel? |
A30575 | Secondly, What do I think God aims at? |
A30575 | Shall I account them pure with the wicked ballances, and with the bag of deceiptful weights? |
A30575 | Shall I yet continue my wonted love to you as to make you to keep your Feast of Tabernacles still with joy as you were wo nt to do yeerly? |
A30575 | Shall it not wither when the East wind toucheth it? |
A30575 | Shall it not wither when the East wind toucheth it? |
A30575 | Should a wise man utter vain knowledg, and fill his belly with the East wind? |
A30575 | Since you know God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye to the weak and beggerly elements of the world? |
A30575 | Sixthly, God gives me abundance of the Creature: but what is it that makes the difference between me and others? |
A30575 | So Carnal hearts look only at Flowers; but gracious hearts look at the Root: I have such and such a thing, but have I an evidence of Gods love? |
A30575 | So the Septuagint Translation, Where is your King( say they?) |
A30575 | So wert not thou of such a Familie? |
A30575 | So, doth God bring into great straights? |
A30575 | So, shall we leave our Oyl? |
A30575 | Spake, what? |
A30575 | Still mark how God urges this, when you come to fast; Is this the Fast that I require, to do thus and thus? |
A30575 | Strength: What strength, you will say? |
A30575 | Suppose we go on in the waies of death and perish, what shal God lose by it? |
A30575 | THEY were readie to say, Why do you thus blame us for our eager desire? |
A30575 | The Angels they excel in strength, the most excellent Creatures, and what, do they slight and disregard the Word of God? |
A30575 | The Greek thus, 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉? |
A30575 | The Lyon hath roared, who will not tremble? |
A30575 | The Notes from the words are these: First, Those things that carnal hearts rest upon will vanish; Where are they, saith God, what''s become of them? |
A30575 | The Septuagint they turn the words, How shall I protect thee? |
A30575 | The old man forgetful of his yeers pursueth him flying, and crieth: My son, why fliest thou from me thy father, unarmed and old? |
A30575 | The ten Tribes might say, Doth God threaten us? |
A30575 | Then God is Love himself, he is the Element of Love; And whither should love go but up to the Element? |
A30575 | Then when any temptation comes to us to sin against God, Oh let us say, How shall I do this, and sin against God? |
A30575 | There is a time to love; when is the time? |
A30575 | There was a time that conscience was against it; how came you to get leave of your conscience? |
A30575 | There was none exalted him, but they followed their own Counsels and did what they list, yet, how shall I give thee up? |
A30575 | There''s such Religious men speak thus, and others that we account as Religious as they speak quite contrary; Is there any Religion in the world? |
A30575 | Therefore I will do a mervailous work among the People, even a mervailous work and a wonder;( What''s the mervailous work, what''s the wonder?) |
A30575 | Therfore, O you Saints of God, never be afraid of evil men, for ere long it will be demanded of them, where their Pomp, and Glory, and Pride is? |
A30575 | They are said to be strong- hearted, stiff hearted, but saith the holy Ghost, how weak is thy heart? |
A30575 | Thirdly, A Lyon is strong and crushes the whol compages of a mans bones at one crush; Alas man, what is he? |
A30575 | Thirdly, I come now to fit my self with these contentments, but what opportunities have I by these to do good more than before? |
A30575 | This is that the Lord threatens here; and why? |
A30575 | This seems plainly to be even the scope of this Charge, Is there iniquity in Gilead? |
A30575 | Thou hast( saith the text) defiled thy Sanctuaries( how?) |
A30575 | Thou, even thou art to be feared; and who may stand in thy sight when once thou art angry? |
A30575 | Though Ephraim the yonger, yet when he got Authority in his hand, how imperious was he? |
A30575 | Though the affliction doth continue a great while, Will you patiently hold out to long- suffering, and that with joyfulness? |
A30575 | Thus saith the Lord, Shall they fall, and not arise? |
A30575 | True, I think such and such they are in the wrong, but what good will come of it if I do thus and thus? |
A30575 | Truly, I do not know a greater temptation to Atheism at this day than this is, for what will men think? |
A30575 | Twelfthly, If I destroy them, what glory shall I have? |
A30575 | Vnto all patience] It may be you have strength to bear some afflictions, you have some patience; But are you strengthened with all might? |
A30575 | Was it not free Grace, free Grace in in the kind of it? |
A30575 | Was not Esau Jacob''s brother, saith God? |
A30575 | Was not Esau Jacob''s brother, saith the Lord? |
A30575 | Was there ever times of provoking so as there are now? |
A30575 | Was this story to be a means to humble the people for their sins? |
A30575 | We can easily destroy our selves, but can we save our selves? |
A30575 | We reade of bands of Love, but what''s become of them? |
A30575 | We say sometimes of the Prelates, Oh the hand of God is against them; how they brought themselves into a snare? |
A30575 | We say to a child, Your father calls you, or to a servant, your master calls you, will you not answer? |
A30575 | Wel, here was Gods Word, But how was Gods Work? |
A30575 | Well, but though they be burdens, if they be truths, why should they not be urged? |
A30575 | Well, but wherein did God manifest that he did love Israel when he was a Child? |
A30575 | Well, do you bring a reproach upon God, upon his Name, upon Profession, upon his Saints? |
A30575 | Well, he prevail''d, but what''s this to this people of Israel? |
A30575 | Wert not thou such a ones brother, such a ones sister that remained wicked and ungodly, and it may be died so? |
A30575 | What advantage hath the Jew? |
A30575 | What are they but crums that the Master of the Familie casts to Dogs? |

A30575 | What need hath God of us? |
A30575 | What oppression is there in Trading? |
A30575 | What people is there so great as this people that the Lord is so nigh unto in all that they call upon him for, saith Moses? |
A30575 | What prayer will then? |
A30575 | What saith the Psalmist? |
A30575 | What shall I do then? |
A30575 | What shall become of Samuel then? |
A30575 | What sins were greater than the sins of Jerusalem against Christ when he lived? |
A30575 | What then can Gilgal expect? |
A30575 | What then? |
A30575 | What was the special thing that God spake to Jacob when he found him at Bethel? |
A30575 | What were it for a drunken fellow to come and think to oppose but such an Army as we have that goes out of the City at this time? |
A30575 | What were they but Gods people? |
A30575 | What would follow? |
A30575 | What''s the matter that should make them thus? |
A30575 | What''s the reason our consciences do so misgive us, and that we are so afraid that the Lord will leave us to our selves? |
A30575 | What, Is this sweet, to be freed from outward bondage, and to have meat laid before us? |
A30575 | What, art thou his posterity? |
A30575 | What, can I think my anger to be so terrible to a Child, a Neighbor, a Servant? |
A30575 | What, doest thou think to harden thy self against God, and yet think to prosper? |
A30575 | What, is not Israel a Son? |
A30575 | What, is this the God that heretofore carried them as Eagles do their yong upon their wings, and nourished them as the Eagle nourisheth her yong ones? |
A30575 | What, such great things in us, and yet moves not God to cast us off, but still, How shall I cast thee off? |
A30575 | What, will you shew your selves so ingrateful to him for all the good he hath done to you, as to reject him, and his house, and family? |
A30575 | What, will you undertake such a thing as that, to deliver them from their sin? |
A30575 | When almost did you ever hear of a covetous man convinc''d? |
A30575 | When does God take away in wrath? |
A30575 | When he can stand out no longer, than he falls a lessening; It is no more than others do, and how should I maintain my family? |
A30575 | When the Reformation was first from Popery here, what a stir was there? |
A30575 | When we have been at the very pits brink, the Lord hath been often saying even concerning England, How shall I give thee up England? |

A30575 | Who amongst us shall dwell with devouring fire? |

A30575 | Who shall give help to the corruption of Israel? |
A30575 | Who will pity a man or woman that is the cause of all their own evil, wilfully brings it upon themselves? |

A30575 | Wilt not thou now love the Lord thy God? |
A30575 | Wilt thou see thine eyes upon that which is not? |
A30575 | Wilt thou, a poor worm, stand out against this God? |
A30575 | Would it have been a comfort to them to have known it? |
A30575 | Would it not have been a comfort to them, if they had known that God intended to make them conformable to his Son? |
A30575 | Would you ever have thought to have liv''d to the time to have seen such a change in their spirits as at this day? |
A30575 | Yea but now, did not you behaue your selves proudly and stubbornly, and so make your service so much the more hard, by provoking your Governors? |
A30575 | Yea, But whether he will help or no? |
A30575 | Yea, Lastly, Why may not Mercy yet work upon their hearts? |
A30575 | Yea, but friend, how do you get leave of your conscience to do it? |
A30575 | Yea, but was not he in some way of sin? |
A30575 | Yes, every way, the Jew hath much advantage every way above al other people of the earth: Why, wherein? |
A30575 | You have had( indeed) deliverances, and so have they, And are you not unto me as the children of the Ethiopians? |
A30575 | You have wept and cried, saying, Who shal give us flesh? |
A30575 | You wil go and seek to shift for your selves by false waies, and forsake me, A ● ● not I the Lord? |
A30575 | You will say, Can the Creature bring a reproach upon God? |
A30575 | You will say, How can that be? |
A30575 | You will say, Thank your selves, who will pity you? |
A30575 | You will say, 〈 … 〉 n comes in between Decree and Damnation: But how comes sin in? |
A30575 | a wonder that there should be iniquity; what,''t is the City of the Priest? |
A30575 | am I in great distress? |
A30575 | am I not in the way that thou hast set me? |
A30575 | an Interogation; it is, as if he should say: First, Who dare say, there is iniquity in Gilead? |
A30575 | and I hope men may make the best of what they have? |
A30575 | and are you strengthened according to the glorious power of God, unto all patience? |
A30575 | and did not the Man of God tell us that this was from the Lord? |
A30575 | and didest not thou promise to shew me thy glory? |
A30575 | and do not you begin to be exalted in your own hearts? |
A30575 | and doest thou love me? |
A30575 | and is it to all long- suffering? |
A30575 | and may not I do wel enough without it? |
A30575 | and set thee as Zeboim? |
A30575 | and shall not the Love of God and the fruits of that be a stronger Bond to tie thy heart unto him? |
A30575 | and such cruel bloudy Wars, and so overspreading the Kingdom as they have, and that yet we should at this day have provision so plentiful as we have? |
A30575 | and the Chaldae Paraphrase, Where is your King that should save you in all your Cities? |
A30575 | and the Heir of Heaven and Earth? |
A30575 | and therefore why should you so much upbraid us about our Kings? |
A30575 | and was it not the Lord long- suffering and of great mercy, forgiving iniquity and transgression& c? |
A30575 | and what need it? |
A30575 | and what was that to us? |
A30575 | and where are these men? |
A30575 | and why should not we be rul''d and govern''d by them? |
A30575 | and will you forget him? |
A30575 | and without this there will come a great deal of stir, and can any man in Reason but think that this is good? |
A30575 | and yet thou seest how God hath cast off a great part of that Familie, and yet hath he loved thee? |
A30575 | are there not evils among Judah as well as us? |
A30575 | are they not in Covenant with thee? |
A30575 | are they not in relation to thee? |
A30575 | are we dead dogs that we should do such things? |
A30575 | are we of the seed of Iacob now? |
A30575 | are we only the sinful people? |
A30575 | are you stronger than he? |
A30575 | are you thankful for what you have had? |
A30575 | art thou of the seed of Iacob? |
A30575 | but do your servants love you? |
A30575 | but how shall I do it? |
A30575 | but how shall I give it up? |
A30575 | but that comes to the same, thus: How shall I protect such a one as thou art? |
A30575 | but then what do you think it is to be the son to the King of Heaven and Earth? |
A30575 | by then is this people of Jerusalem sliden back by a perpetual back- sliding? |
A30575 | can you take your advantage? |
A30575 | did Jacob worship an Idol in Bethel? |
A30575 | did men but do so, say, How shall I do this? |
A30575 | did not God know you more then? |

A30575 | doth God say when we are in danger of being destroyed, how shall I do this? |
A30575 | doth not God oppose me in it? |
A30575 | doth thy heart begin to bleed towards thy Brethen? |
A30575 | had not you more sweet communion in those times than now you have? |
A30575 | hast not thou the Angels that are with thee to enjoy thy Glory, to have communion with thee? |
A30575 | hast thou any hope that God should be merciful to thy soul, to do thee any good? |
A30575 | hast thou left the earth as unworthy of thy beauty and glory? |

A30575 | hath not he judged you, and been faithful with you? |
A30575 | hath there been a day of atonement between God and thy soul? |
A30575 | have I not the Word of God for it? |
A30575 | have not I a naughty vile heart? |
A30575 | have not I alwaies been a help to thee in all times of straights and distresses? |
A30575 | have not they prov''d vanity? |
A30575 | have you none of your friends so? |
A30575 | he tells them that their Father Iacob take his brother by the heel? |
A30575 | how careless is my spirit, and slight and vain? |
A30575 | how comes it to pass there is no more Oyl then? |
A30575 | how comes this? |
A30575 | how could it do it? |
A30575 | how do they discover their pride now they are got up? |
A30575 | how do we depend upon God for our lives and souls? |

A30575 | how long wil we go about? |
A30575 | how negligent have I been? |
A30575 | how often hath God found us in this way? |
A30575 | how often have we been at a stand in our way since God hath been pleased to call us out of Egypt? |
A30575 | how often have we fallen in our way, and gone astray? |
A30575 | how often may many of you say, that the Lord hath come unexpectedly to you in waies of mercy? |
A30575 | how often would we run into harms way( as we use to say) if God did not lead us? |
A30575 | how ordinarie is it for us in our prosperitie to forget Gods mercies in delivering of us, from Affliction? |
A30575 | how quite contrary to the Word? |
A30575 | how shal I do this? |
A30575 | how shall I deliver thee Israel? |
A30575 | how shall I deliver thee up, Israel? |
A30575 | how shall I deliver thee, Israel? |
A30575 | how shall I disinherit it? |
A30575 | how shall I do it? |
A30575 | how shall I do it? |
A30575 | how shall I do this, and sin against the Lord our God? |
A30575 | how shall I make thee as Admah and Zeboim? |
A30575 | how shall I make thee as Admah? |
A30575 | how shall I make thee as Admah? |
A30575 | how shall I make them as other people, as Germany, and other people? |
A30575 | how shall I set thee as Zeboim? |
A30575 | how sweet is it then to be freed from spiritual bondage, and to have the food of life laid before us? |
A30575 | how unworthy am ● of these comforts I have? |
A30575 | if we could not get it when we had so much strength, is it like to be done now we have so little strength? |
A30575 | in the 8 verse, What Nation is there so great, that hath Statutes and Judgments so righteous, as all this Law which I set before you this day? |
A30575 | in what way did he put forth this his strength? |
A30575 | is he a home born Slave? |
A30575 | is he a home- born Slave? |
A30575 | is it not from God? |
A30575 | is it not the Lord? |
A30575 | is it only to satisfie my flesh? |
A30575 | is my heart fit for such a mercy as this? |
A30575 | is not this the opinion of our Ministers? |
A30575 | is the day come for him now to have his rage upon me? |
A30575 | is there iniquity among them? |
A30575 | is there iniquity there? |
A30575 | is this that God that is love and mercie it self thus to appear? |
A30575 | it is a sad thing to be a self- destroyer, for what pity can there be? |
A30575 | it''s a great deal better than to have a great Estate? |
A30575 | know then, it is not unbecoming any man or woman: Are you of the seed of Jacob? |
A30575 | lay this to heart thou convicted sinner, what offers of mercie hath God made to thee? |
A30575 | let''s consider thus; I find no satisfaction in this, yea, but is it not because I forsake the Lord God, in whom there is all satisfaction? |
A30575 | like men shall we say? |
A30575 | must they now suffer, and shal I ad to their afflictions? |
A30575 | my brethren, shall it be so with us? |
A30575 | now if the mother and children be cut off, what will become of thy Promise? |
A30575 | perhaps thou art in a better condition now than thou wast before; Oh but tell me, hast thou humbled thy soul before God to make up thp peace with him? |
A30575 | saith God, Where''s your King that should save you in your Cities? |
A30575 | shal not al this love of God to thee in Christ constrain thee? |
A30575 | shall I do thus saith God? |
A30575 | shall I go over my work again? |
A30575 | shall he turn away, and not return? |
A30575 | shall my hand be used to lay the yoke on them& to press it hard? |
A30575 | shall not Gods Cords be as strong as the Devils Cords, or Mans Cords? |
A30575 | shall not I rather serve the designs of the enemies with such sharpness and bitterness? |
A30575 | shall out of the same Fountain come forth sweet water, and bitter? |
A30575 | shall we come with ten thousand Rams, and Rivers of Oyl? |
A30575 | shall we not regard what our Ministers do? |
A30575 | speaketh of one in the time of Phocas, pleading with God and saying, Wherefore Lord hast thou made Phocas Emperor? |
A30575 | that fulness that I have, doth it not more fully engage me unto God than others? |
A30575 | that is, I who am a holy and infinite God, how shall I protect such a one as thou art? |
A30575 | that is, The suppleness, the gentleness, the tenderness of our spirits, shall we lose these, that we may prevail over our Brethren? |
A30575 | that some soul might return, and might refuse no longer to return; Why wilt not thou return? |
A30575 | that''s no argument with God; I have destroyed such and such, and why may not I destroy thee? |
A30575 | the Lord deliver us from this great evil, shall I say, Deliver us? |
A30575 | the seed of Iacob should never think their condition to be so sad, but there may be recovery; Is it a great affliction that is upon me? |
A30575 | then we have sinned; and when they were under oppression, then Hosea could speak freelie and plainlie to them, Where is your King? |
A30575 | then, what will become of thee who art a wicked and vile wretch and hast no good at all? |
A30575 | there''s such and such things that indeed would be sutable to me, but is my heart fit for such a deliverance? |
A30575 | they cared not for that; let us have a King, let become of Samuel what wil come, and of his house, what care they? |
A30575 | thou hast deserved eternal flames, and wilt thou grudg at God for waiting a few years? |
A30575 | thou weak man, thou vain man, why wilt thou deceive thy soul with this? |
A30575 | though a Son very vile, very sinful, yet there is a how shall I give thee up? |
A30575 | to apply it spiritually, that we might have our wils over our brethren, shall we part with our Oyl? |
A30575 | to have the same Love that the Father loves Christ withal, Is not this a strong Bond to bind thy heart to God? |
A30575 | to what purpose is this to the ten Tribes, that Iacob took his brother by the heel? |
A30575 | treasure up this Scripture, it will be worth a world to you, For the Devil wil mightily strengthen himself with this, What, are not you a cast- away? |
A30575 | ubi est Rex tuus? |
A30575 | was it not through the violence of your spirits? |
A30575 | was not Jacob our Father? |
A30575 | were it not better for me to return? |
A30575 | were there such horrid Opinions before when we had power? |
A30575 | what did he aim at? |
A30575 | what do I do but that I may? |
A30575 | what do men look after? |
A30575 | what exercise of Grace? |
A30575 | what glory to God? |
A30575 | what good have I gotten by reading, and praying? |
A30575 | what good have you got? |
A30575 | what good to the Church? |
A30575 | what good will it do to me to cozen my own soul? |
A30575 | what good would this do to the People, that Hosea was prophesying to? |
A30575 | what invitations doth take thy heart, that the calling to the most high can not overcome thee? |

A30575 | what troubles have I brought my father into? |
A30575 | what were the sins of my afflicted, my low condition? |

A30575 | what will become of me now? |
A30575 | what work of Grace more than before? |
A30575 | what, are you wiser than all our Priests? |
A30575 | what, canst thou find in any waies like Gods waies? |

A30575 | when these two can be added, what is wa 〈 … 〉 g to the comfort of ones life? |
A30575 | when this shall be ask''d them, Where''s your bravery, and pride and stoutness of your hearts? |
A30575 | when we have workings in our own thoughts as bitter as gall, if before we vent them, we would but put this to our selves, how shall I do this? |
A30575 | where is your King that should save you in your Citie, and your judges, of whom you said, Give us a King and Princes? |
A30575 | where''s your Prayers and Fastings? |
A30575 | whither art thou gone? |
A30575 | whither art thou gone? |
A30575 | who amongst us shall dwel with everlasting burnings? |
A30575 | who art thou that canst stand against the Voice of God when he speaks? |
A30575 | who can abide the fierceness of his anger? |
A30575 | who will charge Gilead of iniquity, where the Priests are? |
A30575 | why doth the Prophet instance in this? |
A30575 | why is he spoiled? |
A30575 | why is he spoiled? |
A30575 | why may not yet God work good upon it; It''s very evil, but how shall I give it up? |
A30575 | why may there not be some hope? |
A30575 | why now Lord manifest thy glory, now Lord shew thy self to be a glorious God, in doing what? |
A30575 | why should any pleadings stop thee in the course of thy wrath? |
A30575 | why should they be hindered and discouraged in their work? |
A30575 | why should we upon every little discontent cast off all pity and love to our Brethren? |
A30575 | why should ● ● thou backslide with a perpetual back- sliding? |
A30575 | why then will you render God thus terrible? |
A30575 | why was he threatned to be their King? |
A30575 | why your King hath dedestroyed you, saith Tremelius? |
A30575 | will any good come to the publick? |
A30575 | will they not laugh and scorn at Religion? |
A30575 | would it not be more for the honor of God if I did forbear? |
A30575 | would not this mercie serve thy turn, such a mercie as this is? |
A30575 | would they have done thus? |
A30575 | yet this must be, Justice requires satisfaction, How can it be done without the Son of God being made a Curse for mans sin? |
A30575 | you can do little for God, ● ea I find( perhaps saith one) much frowardness and stubborness in my heart against God; but do you bewail it? |
A30575 | you have been waiting and seeking of God it may be this half year, or twelve months, What''s that I pray? |
A30575 | you have it thus in your books, Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? |
A30575 | you that are Children, that have had Parents that were wrastlers with God, Are you wicked now? |
A30575 | you that have had gracious Ancestors, think often of them, and when you are tempted to sin, think this, Is not this unworthy of my Ancestors? |
A30575 | you would encourage one another and say, Come, we shall have a day yet, for we have this strength, and the King and Nobles for us: Where are they? |
A30575 | 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 i. e. 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 ubi Rex tuus nunc? |
A35389 | & c. Is this a time for thy heart to runne out sinfully after the world? |
A35389 | ( saith God) Is this a time for you to feast in, when my wrath is breaking forth amongst you? |
A35389 | 1. Who she was? |
A35389 | 1.10, 11,& c. where he speakes of those oblations and great services of the Jewes, I hate your solemne feasts, bring no more vaine oblations,& c. Why? |
A35389 | 1.5: To which of the Angels said he at any time, thou art my sonne? |
A35389 | 12. when his estate was increased, what shall I doe, my barnes are not big enough? |
A35389 | 3.20,& c. So that the damned shall for ever cry out, Wherefore is light given to him that is in misery? |
A35389 | 4. would not enjoy her son,( and that is the chiefest joy) because the Arke of God was taken: She enquires, where is the glory? |
A35389 | 82. the wicked are put for the rich, How long will you iudge uniustly and accept the persons of the wicked? |
A35389 | 9. affirmes, that no man can doe any one act purely pure, Who can bring a cleane thing out of that which is uncleane? |
A35389 | A Parent indeed may provide riches for his children, but can he provide grace also? |
A35389 | A cup of blood, a cup of trembling: And is this to be rejoyced in? |
A35389 | A day of trouble, a day of humiliation? |
A35389 | A friend who? |
A35389 | A parent may put Money in their purses, but can he put holinesse in their hearts too, that it is said here, that Iob sent and sanctified them? |
A35389 | According to this sense, when Satan saith doth Job feare God for nought? |
A35389 | Adam where art thou? |
A35389 | Againe, If it be a duty to mourne over the afflictions of others; how exceeding sinfull is it to rejoyce at the afflictions of others? |
A35389 | Alas what have these sheepe done? |
A35389 | Among all treasures, spirituall treasures are most hidden; they are so hidden, that they are called mysteries, or secrets? |
A35389 | An evill spirit from the Lord, how was it an evill spirit if it were from the Lord? |
A35389 | An eye of prophesie hath affected some hearts, and shall not an eye of sense affect ours? |
A35389 | And had we( as these mercies did oblige us) fill''d up, or labour''d to fill up th''other part, the better part of Jobs character? |
A35389 | And his wife said unto him, Doest thou still retain thine integritie? |
A35389 | And it may be a Question whether we are to understand this of Jobs preheminence in the ganerall or in regard of some one particular grace? |
A35389 | And shall we not receive evill? |
A35389 | And so it is rendred out of the Septuagint, Hast thou attended with thy mind upon my servant Job? |
A35389 | And still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause? |
A35389 | And surely( my brethren) if this be a character of the devill, and to be conformable unto Satan, how conspicuous is that conformity in this age? |
A35389 | And that hee hath somewhat else to give, when he hath given a love unto, and a longing after his Truth? |
A35389 | And the Lord said unto Satan, from whence commest thou? |
A35389 | And the Lord said unto Sathan, hast thou not considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth? |
A35389 | And the Lord said unto Sathan, whence commest thou? |
A35389 | And they may answer as the Eunuch did, How can we except we had some man to guide us? |
A35389 | And was not Iob as mad? |
A35389 | And what are riches then, but golden tho ● ● ● s? |
A35389 | And what is strength then, but stronger paine, and an ability to beare a heavier burden of affliction? |
A35389 | And what naked backe was not cloathed with his wooll? |
A35389 | And what was the Sacrifice unto Job, or unto his sonnes? |
A35389 | And what were his children to a wife? |
A35389 | And where there is great righteousnesse and great peace, how great is the joy of that people? |
A35389 | And why doth God chuse to worke thus? |
A35389 | And why is it said, that they should have their lives for a prey? |
A35389 | Another thing here questionable is, Whether it be lawfull to curse the creature? |
A35389 | Are these the words of patience and sobriety? |
A35389 | Are they not ministring spirits sent forth to minister for them who are the heires of salvation? |
A35389 | Art not thou he( saith Ahab) that troublest Israel? |
A35389 | Art thou for the present in a naked condition? |
A35389 | Art thou poore? |
A35389 | Art thou weake and sick? |
A35389 | Artaxerxes penè siti pereunte, cum aquam ebihisset sorditā, quaesivit ab eo Eunuabus ecquid non plurimum molestiae hoc potu sensisset? |
A35389 | As Elisha rebuked Gehazi, Is this a time to receive money, and to receive garments? |
A35389 | As if he should say, Doest thou thinke that the offering up of thy sheepe in Sacrifice hath beene pleasing to God? |
A35389 | As if he should say, doe you not know why the Book of Iob was written? |
A35389 | As if she should say, What? |
A35389 | As many times when you are angry with your servants, you aske, where have you been? |
A35389 | As soone as ever there vvas any feare of sinne, presently they had recourse to a sacrifice; and what was that? |
A35389 | As soone as she saw him thus smitten, What( saith shee) doest thou still retaine thine integrity? |
A35389 | As when some great man or strange shew passeth by, we goe out to see it; so God cometh down upon mount Moriah to see a sight: And what was it? |
A35389 | Awake why sleepest thou O Lord? |
A35389 | Before he spake against his conception and his birth, now, Why died I not from the wombe? |
A35389 | Blasphemy, what? |
A35389 | But Elijah; if thou be so willing to die, why doest thou flie from Jezabel? |
A35389 | But can Satan come into the presence of God? |
A35389 | But could Job die when he listed, that she biddeth him curse God and die? |
A35389 | But did Job open his mouth in this sense wisely and discreetly? |
A35389 | But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh: what? |
A35389 | But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh; what? |
A35389 | But how can it be said that Satan should come among the sons of God? |
A35389 | But how commeth it to passe that this one man escaped? |
A35389 | But how could he prevaile upon the Sabeans, that they should come and doe his businesse now at this time? |
A35389 | But how shall we make out this notion, that the vilest of men are here described? |
A35389 | But how should we understand this of Job, that there was none like to him upon the earth? |
A35389 | But if it be sinfull not to ease( when it is in our power) the sorrowes of others, how sinfull is it to adde to their sorrow? |
A35389 | But is there any treasure in a curse? |
A35389 | But is there no more in true repentance, but only this, that it is not to be repented of? |
A35389 | But is this agreeable to the duty or character of a godly man, to say, he hath no rest, he is not quiet? |
A35389 | But it may here be further inquired, If it were before the Law was given, who taught Job to offer Sacrifice? |
A35389 | But it will be objected, Is there any man that sinneth not? |
A35389 | But now here it will be questioned for the further opening of this, why Satan chooses thus to consume the sheepe with fire? |
A35389 | But rather, by good here, we are to understand the good things of this life, shall we receive good? |
A35389 | But what became of his three Daughters, did they escape? |
A35389 | But what bottome or ground makes the desire of death lawfull? |
A35389 | But what could Satan doe? |
A35389 | But what day was this? |
A35389 | But what did Satan upon this day? |
A35389 | But what overcame him, and answered all his doubts about the undertaking of such a worke? |
A35389 | But who doe thus? |
A35389 | But who made this attempt? |
A35389 | But who were these foolish women, at whom he aimes in this comparison? |
A35389 | But why doth Job here charge this upon God, The Lord hath taken? |
A35389 | But will the Lord, the wise God doe any thing without cause? |
A35389 | But with what doth he pricke this bladder? |
A35389 | But, what was this day that Job was so angry with it? |
A35389 | Can I ever be in more need of an Almighty helpe, then when I was strugling to get into the world? |
A35389 | Can I ever be in such straights as I was then, can I ever be in a more helplesse condition? |
A35389 | Can a man curse persons or things? |
A35389 | Can he force men to be his instruments, to execute his designes upon the people of God? |
A35389 | Can that which is unsavoury be eaten without salt? |
A35389 | Cattell the riches of the Patriarchs, and why? |
A35389 | Come take a little counsell at the last, work like a wise man, wilt thou hold a thing thou canst get nothing by? |
A35389 | Concerning Edom, thus saith the Lord, Is wisedome no more in Teman? |
A35389 | Could he find out no other time but this? |
A35389 | Could the Lord finde out no swearers, no drunkards, no adulterers in the world to let Satan loose upon, but he must needs turne him loose upon me? |
A35389 | Could the killing of a Beast take away sinne? |
A35389 | Cursed be my day? |
A35389 | Death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adams transgression; And who were those? |
A35389 | Did he therefore actually preach three yeares, night and day without intermission? |
A35389 | Didest thou ever meet with such an one in the world before? |
A35389 | Doe you not observe you get nothing by your prayers? |
A35389 | Doest thou persevere in those high thoughts of thy selfe? |
A35389 | Doest thou still retain thine integritie? |
A35389 | Doest thou still retain thine integritie? |
A35389 | Doest thou still retain thine integritie? |
A35389 | Doest thou still retaine thine integritie? |
A35389 | Doest thou still retaine thine integrity? |
A35389 | Doth God delight in the bloud of Bulls and Goats? |
A35389 | Doth Job feare God for nought? |
A35389 | Doth Job feare God without cause? |
A35389 | Doth Job serve God for nought? |
A35389 | Doth it become a godly man, to be alwayes solicitous about his estate, and doubting that troubles will come? |
A35389 | Doth not this looke like the blasphemy that the devill hoped would come out of Jobs mouth? |
A35389 | Elisha saith to him, whence commest thou? |
A35389 | F FAce of God, what? |
A35389 | First, He speaks here of his protection, hast thou not made an hedge about him? |
A35389 | First, We may observe from the manner of this speech, Hast thou not made an hedge about him? |
A35389 | For he complaines of that as the cause, which was not the cause of his troubles: what did the night or the day, that he thus chargeth them? |
A35389 | For the person, It is said that Job offered these Sacrifices, Job rose early and offered ▪& c. Was not this to usurpe upon the Priests office? |
A35389 | For, who can bring a cleane thing out of that, which is uncleane? |
A35389 | Fourthly, If your lives are worth so much, then what is the Gospell worth? |
A35389 | Further note this, what was the difference between those sons of God and this Satan? |
A35389 | Ghost, giving up the ghost, what it imports? |
A35389 | Gift, what it is? |
A35389 | God blesses man, what? |
A35389 | Had he no other Butt in the world to shoot the arrowes of his indignation at, but at an innocent breast? |
A35389 | Had they beene about any unlawfull thing? |
A35389 | Had they beene in any suspected place? |
A35389 | Had they taken order what should become of their soules? |
A35389 | Had we beene a People perfect and upright, fearing God and eschewing evill? |
A35389 | Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? |
A35389 | Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the Earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God and escheweth evill? |
A35389 | Hast thou considered my servant Job? |
A35389 | Hast thou considered? |
A35389 | Hast thou eaten of the tree whereof I commanded thee thou shouldest not eate? |
A35389 | Hast thou not made an hedge about him and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? |
A35389 | Hast thou not made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? |
A35389 | Hast thou not taken notice of this in him? |
A35389 | Hast thou seriously, fully and exactly considered my servant Job? |
A35389 | Hath hee smitten him as he smit those that smote him? |
A35389 | Have I found thee O my friend? |
A35389 | Have Satans words and arguments such power with God to moove him to doe a thing? |
A35389 | He doth not say, Is any man sick, let him pray? |
A35389 | He doth not say, Thou wicked woman, thou abhominable wretch, why doest thou give me such counsell? |
A35389 | He said unto Sathan whence comest thou? |
A35389 | Hence it may be questioned, Whether it be lawfull for us to wish or to desire, that had not come to passe, which we see come to passe? |
A35389 | Her scornfull exprobration in these words: Doest thou still retain thine integritie? |
A35389 | Here are great men, what doe they? |
A35389 | Here it may be questioned, How or why these Sabeans at such a time should fall upon the estate of Job? |
A35389 | Here was a hedge, first about his Person, that was the inmost hedge, or the inmost wall, in these words, Hast thou not made an hedge about him? |
A35389 | His going to and fro, what it imports? |
A35389 | How could Iob sanctifie his sonnes or his daughters? |
A35389 | How could Satan prevaile with these? |
A35389 | How could they hold out to sit so long? |
A35389 | How did the Lord give Job all his riches and estate? |
A35389 | How did this vex and sting Satan? |
A35389 | How doth the City sit solitary that was full of people? |
A35389 | How great an affliction then is it, which makes a man of spirit cry out and roare? |
A35389 | How is it then that Job saith, Let that night be darknesse, or Let darknesse seize upon it? |
A35389 | How is it then that thou hast despised the Commandement of the Lord, to doe evill in his sight? |
A35389 | How is it therefore here that Job shaved himselfe for the death of his children, and in regard of those great troubles that were upon him? |
A35389 | How is she become as a widdow? |
A35389 | How is this a description of wicked men? |
A35389 | How it came to passe that she was spared, when all his outward comforts were removed? |
A35389 | How long shall the wicked? |
A35389 | How long shall they utter and speake hard things? |
A35389 | How long? |
A35389 | How many are there, whom death surprizes before they are aware, and seizeth upon them, when they thinke not of it? |
A35389 | How many doth Satan provoke to turne stones into bread, when he commes to them in their hunger? |
A35389 | How many should we see daily blasted with the breath of malicious execrations? |
A35389 | How many thousands beare this marke of the devill, not only in their hands closely, but in their fore- heads openly? |
A35389 | How much more will he make men and Angels to be wals and hedges for the security of his owne people? |
A35389 | How much then doe our soules transcend our owne lives? |
A35389 | How often are they made the bellowes of pride, the fewell of uncleanenesse, the instruments of revenge? |
A35389 | How often doe husbands discover this folly? |
A35389 | How often doe rich men contemne, dispise and oppresse their weake and poore bretheren? |
A35389 | How often doe riches cause forgetfulnesse of God, yea kicking against God? |
A35389 | How sadly and pissionatly did David lament Absoloms death? |
A35389 | How shall we reconcile these two? |
A35389 | How shall we understand this then concerning Job? |
A35389 | How should this day perish? |
A35389 | How sicke then are they who are hopelesse, or who have quite lost their hope? |
A35389 | How so? |
A35389 | How strangely is his visage changed, and his whole body disfigured? |
A35389 | How then cometh it to passe, that when Satan would afflict Iob to the uttermost, he leaves him his wife? |
A35389 | How then did God winke? |
A35389 | How was that? |
A35389 | How were their bodies abused and mangled? |
A35389 | How would it augment our sorrowes, if we looking for these mercies should not have them? |
A35389 | I desire to be dissolved, saith Paul, but why? |
A35389 | I made a covenant with mine eyes, why then should I thinke upon a maide? |
A35389 | I never heard any of them say, why is grace given to one that is in misery? |
A35389 | I never heard any say, wherefore is faith given to a man that is in misery, or hope and patience to the bitter in soule? |
A35389 | I said of laughter thou art mad, of all wordly laughter and outward mirth, what do''st thou? |
A35389 | I was at rest, why diddest thou call me up to a land of trouble? |
A35389 | If Christ wept for the evills that were to come on others, how should we weepe for the evills that are already come upon us? |
A35389 | If I had not been borne dead saith Job, or died naturally assoone as I was borne, yet why was I not left to perish? |
A35389 | If a man would give all for his life, what should he give for his Religion, to maintaine and uphold that in the purity and power of it? |
A35389 | If any shall say, when did we speake against the Lord? |
A35389 | If it be demanded why did Job rend his garments? |
A35389 | If so, then how shall the soule beare an affliction, when God instead of making a way to escape, doth as it were make a hedge to stop all escape? |
A35389 | If that which is light in us be turned into darknesse( as Christ speakes) how great is that darknesse? |
A35389 | If the light that is in thee be darkenesse, how great is that darkenesse? |
A35389 | If thou hast received it, why dost thou boast? |
A35389 | If you are to esteeme your lives so, at what price will you set your soules? |
A35389 | Iob did not severely and austerely forbid them and say, what doe you feasting and spending your time idly one with another? |
A35389 | Iob gives an account or reason of his passion: If any should check him with, why doest thou thus breath out complaints against the day of thy birth? |
A35389 | Is any man afflicted? |
A35389 | Is any man sick? |
A35389 | Is he pained by sicknesse in his body? |
A35389 | Is it a strange thing that he should feede a few that hath 500 yoake of Oxen? |
A35389 | Is it any curse to say, let wormewood be bitter, or to say, let leade be heavy? |
A35389 | Is it any great matter, that he who hath received a flocke of seven thousand Sheepe from thee, should offer a few, 7. or 10. to thee in sacrifice? |
A35389 | Is it justice in God that I who have lived so innocently should be thus extreamely afflicted? |
A35389 | Is it not said, that he had a hedge about him, and such a hedge as the Devill could not breake thorough, to hurt him, and was not Job in safety then? |
A35389 | Is it not time for us not only to write, but to act a Lamentation, and to say, For these things I weepe, mine eye, mine eye runneth down with water? |
A35389 | Is it nothing to you that travell,( though but in meditation) into the Churches of Christ in Germanie? |
A35389 | Is it unlawfull to have an eye to our owne advantage, while we doe our duty? |
A35389 | Is not Job well hired to worke for thee? |
A35389 | Is not sanctification the proper worke of the Spirit of God? |
A35389 | Is not the Lord unchangeable? |
A35389 | Is there any evill in the City, and the Lord hath not done it? |
A35389 | Is thine eye evill, because mine is good? |
A35389 | Is this Job? |
A35389 | Is this a just God who uses his servants thus? |
A35389 | Is this the wages that I shall receive for the worke and service I have done him? |
A35389 | Is thy hand upon me in my own house, might Job say? |
A35389 | It followes, Why died I not from the wombe? |
A35389 | It is a day of trouble and perplexity, and will you now be feasting? |
A35389 | It is a question moved by the Schoole- men, whether a blessing and a curse doe belong to any but a reasonable creature? |
A35389 | It is a word in season, and therefore should as a word upon the Wheeles, making a speedy passage into all our hearts: And how should it not? |
A35389 | It is as if one should say to a man come from this City into the Countrey, were you at Court, or have you seen the King? |
A35389 | It is said God made this hedge, Hast thou not made an hedge about him? |
A35389 | It is some abatement to the sense of misery, not to know that we are miserable; Wherefore is light given? |
A35389 | It is usuall in Scripture thus to signifie the whole body? |
A35389 | It may be questioned here, Why Satan( for that is implyed) desired so to destroy the life of Job? |
A35389 | It may here be questioned, how Satan can be said to smite? |
A35389 | It may here be questioned, why the sheepe were consumed with fire, rather than any other of his cattell, rather then any other of his substance? |
A35389 | It should be the voyce of every soul, Lord what wilt thou have me to doe? |
A35389 | It troubles a man to be found of that or him, whom he hates or feares, Hast thou found me O mine enemy? |
A35389 | It was that which they had longed for, that which they had long sought for? |
A35389 | It was to give to all the world, a testimony that Job was a through godly and holy man; that he was a man of extraordinary strength of grace; why? |
A35389 | Job doth not only give his wife a Logicall reason, but a Rhetoricall reason, words with life, to convince her by; What? |
A35389 | Job doubteth, and Job mourneth, and Job complaineth, Wherefore is light given to him that is in misery? |
A35389 | Job here proposeth such as long for death; Is it lawfull to desire death? |
A35389 | Job you see takes upon him to curse, First, it may be questioned whether a curse be in the power of man or no? |
A35389 | Jonathan, if there be any iniquity in me, slay me thy selfe, for why shouldest thou bring me to thy father? |
A35389 | Laban saith to Jacob when he was come to him, to serve him, Thou art my kinsman, shouldest thou therefore serve me for nought? |
A35389 | Lastly, For the better conceiving of the matter of this question proposed, whence commest thou? |
A35389 | Lastly, There is a third hedge or wall, Hast thou not made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath? |
A35389 | Lastly, Where had Iobs sonnes beene that he is thus suspitious? |
A35389 | Light- haters, who? |
A35389 | Lord thou doest enquire of me whether I had considered thy servant Job? |
A35389 | Lord what wilt thou have me to do? |
A35389 | Make no mourning for the dead, what followeth? |
A35389 | Many pebble stones will make a heavy burden, how then is he burdened, who hath( if such a thing may be supposed) many mil- stones upon his back? |
A35389 | Master who did sinne this man or his parents, that he was borne blind? |
A35389 | May he not rather be an example of impatience? |
A35389 | May not worship then be given to a creature? |
A35389 | Mr. Broughton readeth it without the question,( Why is light given?) |
A35389 | Must Satan needs shew his malice against the Father, when the children were shewing their love one to another? |
A35389 | Must his teares be mingled with their wine? |
A35389 | Must the childrens rejoycing day be the Fathers mourning day? |
A35389 | Must we serve God for nought in that strict sense, or els will ● od account nothing of all our services? |
A35389 | Nineveh is laid wast, who will be moane her? |
A35389 | No? |
A35389 | Now Job himselfe in his nature was uncleane, he had uncleannesse in him, how then was a cleane thing brought out from Job? |
A35389 | Now if you will offer much to save your lives, will not you offer much more to save the Gospell? |
A35389 | Observe it, he doth not call her foolish or wicked woman, but, thou speakest as one of the foolish women; As if he should say, How now wife? |
A35389 | One thing further, When Job saith, Wherefore is light given, and life given? |
A35389 | Onely, what Integrity we have, let us still hold it stedfastly, what evils are( and what evils almost are not?) |
A35389 | Or as Ionah when God reproves him about his passion for the withered gourd, Doest thou well to be angry? |
A35389 | Or did Job deliberate for a curse? |
A35389 | Or hath he Sabeans and Caldeans, Nations and people at his beck, or under his command? |
A35389 | Or if he be omniscient and omnipotent, why then did he not protect me from Satans rage? |
A35389 | Or is there any man that sinneth not in every thing? |
A35389 | Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soule? |
A35389 | Or why was I not stifled in the wombe? |
A35389 | Or, Hast thou not made a trench about him? |
A35389 | Perfection out of imperfection? |
A35389 | Perfection, or to be perfect, what? |
A35389 | Righteousnesse delivereth from death, why, shall not righteous men die? |
A35389 | Satan accuseth with a question, doth Job feare God for nought? |
A35389 | Satan in questioning, speakes as if he were vext, Hast thou not made an hedge about him? |
A35389 | Satan will not believe God, and God had no reason to believe Satan: How then should this be made out? |
A35389 | Sathan whence commest thou? |
A35389 | Secondly, It is interpreted by, without cause, Doth Job feare God without cause? |
A35389 | Secondly, There is this in it; Doeth Job feare God for nought? |
A35389 | Secondly, They rejoyce in it, but why? |
A35389 | Seven rules given about feasting, p. 50,& c. Feastings anciently in the night, p. 364 Fire of God, why so called? |
A35389 | Shadow of death, what? |
A35389 | Shall I take my bread and my water, and my flesh that I have killed for my shearers, and send them to a fellow I know not who? |
A35389 | Shall present evills make us either insensible of, or unthankfull for past mercies? |
A35389 | Shall present troubles be as a grave wherein to bury the memory of all our former comforts? |
A35389 | Shall we have glory in the eye of our faith, and shall we not endure a little trouble in the eye of our sence? |
A35389 | Shall we receive good and not evill? |
A35389 | Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evill? |
A35389 | Shall we receive good? |
A35389 | Shall we send to the Wolfe to save the Sheepe? |
A35389 | Shall we thinke that David never sinned at all, but in that matter? |
A35389 | Shall wee receive good at the hand of God, and not evill? |
A35389 | Shaving the head, what it imports? |
A35389 | Shew us some of your gaines, what have you got? |
A35389 | Shiloh, why Christ was so called? |
A35389 | Should not teares be our meat day and night( as they were Davids) while they say continually, Where is now your God? |
A35389 | Should the Lord set his anger against irrationall creatures? |
A35389 | Sicknesse, and death, and Hell are called evill; how much rather that, but for which these evills had never bin? |
A35389 | So God here speakes to Satan upon his account of walking about the earth, hast thou taken notice of Job? |
A35389 | So I may say to you, why seeke ye peace in a land of trouble, and joy in a land of sorrow? |
A35389 | So here the Lord questions Satan, whence commest thou? |
A35389 | So here we may take in this sense to fill up the forme, doth Job serve God gratis? |
A35389 | So if a man suffer from men, he may goe unto God, but if God himselfe doe appeare to be an enemy and to fight against us, to whom shall we goe? |
A35389 | So if that which should be our comfort be turned into our sorrow, how great is our sorrow? |
A35389 | So it is word for word in the Originall, hast thou laid Job to thy heart? |
A35389 | So much for the actions or gestures of Iob, what he did? |
A35389 | So much for the clearing of the first part of Satans answer, Doth Job serve God for nought? |
A35389 | So saith Iob here to any that should rebuke him, with, doe you well to be thus angry with your day? |
A35389 | So the generall sense of the words, Doth Job feare God for nought? |
A35389 | So then, take the sense thus, Why is light given to a man whose way is hid, and whom God hath hedged in? |
A35389 | So we may say here, Satan sets forth the care of God over his people in most exact termes; And why doth he doe this? |
A35389 | So when you see such men, Sabeans and Chaldeans falling upon the estate of Job, you may demand, Is not the hand of Satan in all this? |
A35389 | So, Whence commest thou? |
A35389 | Some interpret the good here to be meant, of the good of the next life; shall we be in expectation of everlasting good? |
A35389 | Some may question, how can this be? |
A35389 | Some render it, Hast thou not made a wall about him? |
A35389 | Some take light here for knowledge, Wherefore hath a miserable man so much knowledge to see himselfe, and to know himselfe miserable? |
A35389 | Sonnes of God who? |
A35389 | Suppose that there was an Institution of God for sacrificing; why did God call for Sacrifices? |
A35389 | Surely they were more than men, that the Father is but at a Question, whether his sonnes have sinned or no? |
A35389 | Take it in the last sense, men that have treasures will labour to preserve them, why? |
A35389 | Take it on my word, thou canst not thrive this way, thou canst make nothing of it, what dost thou meane to go on madding in such a course as this? |
A35389 | Tell me O my friends, shew me O my God, Wherefore is light given to him that is in misery? |
A35389 | Tell me, hast thou taken notice of such an one? |
A35389 | Terrifie what? |
A35389 | That the people and servants of God dwell in the middest of enemies, in the middest of dangers; Why else need there be an hedge, a wall about them? |
A35389 | That the souls under the Altar cry, How long Lord, how long? |
A35389 | The Cup also shall passe thorough unto thee; What cup? |
A35389 | The Eunuch answered, How should I unlesse some man would guide mee? |
A35389 | The Master of the servant in the Gospell, shall come in a day: in what day? |
A35389 | The Prophet brings in one questioning, What are these wounds? |
A35389 | The cup which my Father hath given me, saith he, shall I not drinke it? |
A35389 | The difficulty that is in this lyeth onely in that word Thither; the doubt is, what place he meanes or whither? |
A35389 | The enemies strike this sword in their bones, A scornfull enquirie, Where is now your God? |
A35389 | The meaning of it is, wherefore is light continued, and wherefore is life continued? |
A35389 | The question then is, Whether an evill or a troublesome being be worse then no being? |
A35389 | The reason of his reprehension in those which follow, What? |
A35389 | The very same may we say to many, who reade the Scriptures, understand you what you reade? |
A35389 | The will of Satan was sinfull, but the power given Satan was just Why? |
A35389 | The word is, Hast thou put thy heart upon Job? |
A35389 | Their language is, Why are you so precise, why so not,& c? |
A35389 | Then Satan answered the Lord and said, doth Job feare God for naught? |
A35389 | Then againe, If I had not so much favour to die assoone as ever I came from the wombe, or to die in the very birth; yet, Why did the knees prevent me? |
A35389 | Then here, hast thou put Job upon thy heart? |
A35389 | Then said his wife unto him, Doest thou still retaine thine integritie? |
A35389 | Then there is a third sense full of falsehood, which Satan casteth upon Iob, Doeth Job feare God for nought? |
A35389 | Then what comfort thinke you will honour give you? |
A35389 | Then, Satan could never have found out such a time as this; Must he needs be afflicting the Father, when the children were a feasting? |
A35389 | There is a reprehension in the question: So God full of wrath toward Sathan, saith, whence commest thou? |
A35389 | There is a third doubt, the resolving of which will further cleare the Scripture to us, that is, Whether a day, be an object capable of a curse or no? |
A35389 | There is no such returne, as Nicodemus said, Shall a man that is old goe into his mothers wombe and be borne againe? |
A35389 | There is one I am sure that oweth thee no service, and by his good will, will doe thee none; hast thou not found my servant? |
A35389 | There were many wildernesses? |
A35389 | There, where is that? |
A35389 | Therefore enquire further into the matter, So did Iob fall out with his day? |
A35389 | These two things are come unto thee, who shall be sorry for thee? |
A35389 | These understand them as an Ironie, as if his wife scoffing and jeering her husband had said: Doest thou still retaine thine integrity? |
A35389 | They cry to God how long? |
A35389 | They cryed not to cruell tyrants, how long will ye persecute? |
A35389 | They did only speake against the service of God, and they thought they had not blasphemed God in it, Wherein have we spoken against thee? |
A35389 | They shall be hungry and hard bestead; And what then? |
A35389 | They stood as men amazed; What? |
A35389 | They told him that the fire consumed his Sheepe, and the wind blew downe the house upon his children: Why doth Iob say, The Lord hath taken? |
A35389 | Thirdly, If your lives be so much worth, what are your soules worth? |
A35389 | Thirdly, Job complaineth bitterly, and he curseth; but what doth he curse? |
A35389 | This might well be retorted upon Satan himselfe; Satan why diddestnot thou serve God then? |
A35389 | Thou speakest as one of the Nabalesses? |
A35389 | Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh, what? |
A35389 | Thy father was an Amorite, and thy mother an Hittite,( of a barbarous people, and what then?) |
A35389 | To be all over boyles, and to be all over- run with the most painfull kind of boyles, what a vehement paine must this be? |
A35389 | To blesse God, what? |
A35389 | To how many have you said, Where are your prayers and fastings where is your Parliament? |
A35389 | To how many of my bretheren, have you said, many times, Where is now your God? |
A35389 | To passe from the manner of speaking, we will looke upon the matter spoken, And the Lord said unto Sathan, whence comest thou? |
A35389 | Touching the estate or person of a man, what it signifies? |
A35389 | W WAy of a man, what? |
A35389 | Was it not then a dreadfull curse, when Job wishes the light( taking it for naturall light) might not shine upon his day? |
A35389 | Was it not told him by the messengers, that the Chaldeans and Sabeans came and tooke away his cattell, plundered and pillaged his estate? |
A35389 | Was the Lord displeased against the rivers? |
A35389 | Was there such a dearth of men, that a man could not be found? |
A35389 | We have received many yeares of plenty, shall we take it ill if we should have some yeares of scarcitie? |
A35389 | We shall receive evill whether we will or no, but shall we not receive it? |
A35389 | Well, thou hast been walking to and fro in the earth, saith God, Hast thou considered my servant Job? |
A35389 | What Evill? |
A35389 | What a banquet had the Spouse for her soule there? |
A35389 | What a spectacle is here? |
A35389 | What a strength had this temptation from the season? |
A35389 | What answer shall we give, what date shall we put to this, How long? |
A35389 | What are these houses? |
A35389 | What are times, what are dayes, what is your condition if God withdraw himselfe? |
A35389 | What comfort will sin give you, what ease will your lusts give you, in such a condition as makes you weary of light and life? |
A35389 | What doth Job meane here to call for darkenesse upon the night? |

A33354 | I beseech you then, Who hear me now, as wise, and prudent men: Did y''ever hear a godly man expresse His mind, in such unlawful words, as these? |
A33354 | I do beseech The favour of you, that you''ll let me know If I have injur''d any of you, or no? |
A33354 | I will say unto God condemn me not and why dost thou contend with me? |
A33354 | I''l say, Lord, why am I thus punished? |
A33354 | I''s''t not enough that thou Shouldst chide thy Friends? |
A33354 | I''ve done what thou allowd, says he, and ● ow I ask if thou hast any more to do For me on earth? |
A33354 | If I be wicked, why labour I thus in vain? |
A33354 | If a man dye, shall he live again? |
A33354 | If he cut off, and shut up, or gather together, who can turn him back? |
A33354 | If horrid sins then do my Soul distain, Why do I thus excuse my self in vain? |
A33354 | If righteous, what dost thou on him bestow? |
A33354 | If thou be righteous, what givest thou him? |
A33354 | If thou sinnest, what dost thou against him? |
A33354 | If to my Maker I have given offence, Why should I all this while plead Innocence? |
A33354 | If we essay to commune with thee, wilt thou be grieved? |
A33354 | If we speak of strength, behold he is strong if we speak of judgement, who shall bring me into plead? |
A33354 | In all thy life- time hast thou ever seen Deaths gates cast open? |
A33354 | In the first place then, I desire to know How high the Heavens are? |
A33354 | In the wild Forrest, where there is no trade, Where, for a price no meat is to be had? |
A33354 | In whose Composing thou didst Art employ? |
A33354 | Is he not such, now say For all thy Art, can''st fall upon a way, To make that Man break his Allegiance To me? |
A33354 | Is it in commerce? |
A33354 | Is it so strange to see a man perplex''t With misery complain, as I do now? |
A33354 | Is my strength the strength of stones or is my flesh of brass? |
A33354 | Is not God in the height of heaven? |
A33354 | Is not my strength exhausted? |
A33354 | Is not our case the same? |
A33354 | Is not this thy fear, thy confidence, thy patience, and the uprightness of thy ways? |
A33354 | Is there any number of his armies,& upon whom doth not his light arise? |
A33354 | Is there not an appointed time for man upon earth? |
A33354 | Is this to comfort pray? |
A33354 | Is''t not enough you see my body pin''d, But you must likewise thus distract my mind? |
A33354 | Is''t not thy duty? |
A33354 | It is well that he should seek of you? |
A33354 | Know est thou the ordinances of heaven? |
A33354 | Knows then what shifts he uses for his food, And makes provision for his tender brood? |
A33354 | Lay down now, and put in surety for thee, who is he, that will touch my hand? |
A33354 | Let''s argue then, my Friend, I do desire, Can a Rush grow up, where there is no Mire? |
A33354 | Like a poor Malefactor, who has tane His leave of all his friends, and with some pain Mounted the Ladder? |
A33354 | Like one of those, thou talkst, alace, my friend, When wilt''to those expressions put an end? |
A33354 | Lord what is all we brag of then for what Keep we such toyl on earth? |
A33354 | Make a rude bit reverberat his tooth? |
A33354 | Man of a Woman born, can he be clean? |
A33354 | May I not then oppress''t with Life repine, Since there''s no Life comparable to mine? |
A33354 | May not I now have libertie to die? |
A33354 | May not I then exhibit my complaint To my Creator? |
A33354 | Must we esteem you wise, because that you Know as much as the Brutal Creatures do? |
A33354 | Must we yet live? |
A33354 | My Body tortur''d with a strange Disease, W ● ose fury no soft Ointments can appease: What art to such as I am can bring ease? |
A33354 | My Skin to pieces is all rent, and torn, Was ever man to such sad Judgements born? |
A33354 | My actings in this Earth? |
A33354 | My small time, that remains? |
A33354 | NExt, I demand thee, know''st thou who it is That doth preserve the several species Of all those Creatures? |
A33354 | Nay let us even suppose, my plagues did flow, From th''hand of man, I pray, my friends, if so, Why may not I as other men be vex''t? |
A33354 | Next there''s the Raven, such a creature too, As lives by prey, as well as Lyons do: Who doth provide its food? |
A33354 | Next, as to darknesse: — dost thou comprehend What thing that is? |
A33354 | No sure, then judge me, for I can not plead Not guilty: I''m unclean, and who can bring That which is clean, out of an unclean thing? |
A33354 | No, no, fly hence my Soul, fly hence, make haste Why dost not fly? |
A33354 | No, no, for to be free with thee; my friend, There''s no man here dares so expresse his mind, As thou hast done? |
A33354 | None is so fierce, as dare stir him up: who is then able to stand before me? |
A33354 | Now from such topicks, though there were no moe, Who may not soon, th''Almighties Glory know? |
A33354 | Now pray where is this comfort to be had? |
A33354 | Now pray, my friends, by what authoritie Act you these things? |
A33354 | Now, if a man once in this Gulf of Death Be drown''d, pray shall he re- assume his Breath? |
A33354 | Now, if thou think''st this rain is procreat As other creatures are, who did beget This useful thing? |
A33354 | O that I knew where I might find him? |
A33354 | Of ever living in his former case, Without all hopes, not sprouting like a Tree, Only falls sick, and dyes — and where is he? |
A33354 | Of if he means to punish them with war, Who can resist him? |
A33354 | Of many simples didst not me compound? |
A33354 | Of which I must be suffered to complain: Am I compos''d of Stone, or Brass, that I Should suffer all these Tortures, and not dye? |
A33354 | On what foundations the proud Pillars stand, Which that vast arch support? |
A33354 | Or being catch''d, canst thou by feeding bribe This wanton beast to tarry by thy Crib? |
A33354 | Or by stupendious Poverty make gain? |
A33354 | Or canst thou hire him to diffuse his rays Before his time? |
A33354 | Or canst thou yet, with all thy art contrive A way to trace, and measure the extent Of that dark Land? |
A33354 | Or dost the time of their delivery know? |
A33354 | Or doth the princely Eagle soar on high, And to the tops of Rocks, and Mountains fly At thy command? |
A33354 | Or have I proudly claim''d of your Supply? |
A33354 | Or if such adoration, we allow him, What profit shall we make by praying to him? |
A33354 | Or if thy sins should multiplied be, What does he value either them, or thee? |
A33354 | Or know''st thou when the Hinds do calve? |
A33354 | Or make Men, Beasts, Birds, Fishes in the Sea, Endure the same afflictions with thee? |
A33354 | Or make a double bridle rule his mouth? |
A33354 | Or save his Life, whom he commands to dye? |
A33354 | Or shall we think that you deserve esteem, Because you can descantupon a Theme, Well known to all men? |
A33354 | Or thy Creator in perfection find? |
A33354 | Or to desist from his intentions make? |
A33354 | Or to what end, I make the Rivers freeze, And thus incrustate even the raging Seas? |
A33354 | Or vext you with my Bill of Charity? |
A33354 | Or when thou dost make faces, shut their eyes? |
A33354 | Or who shut up the sea with doors when it brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb? |
A33354 | Or will he draw the Harrows orderly After thee, when thou sowest? |
A33354 | Or with what wonderful celerity, The ravenous Eagle to her prey doth flye? |
A33354 | Or, says he, so much idle talking hear? |
A33354 | Or, with such Language, his sick fancy please? |
A33354 | Pray does the wild Ass bray, and make a noise, When it has Grass for Pasture, at its choice? |
A33354 | Pray don''t we see how those same Corps are made Through much o''th''world the subject of a trade? |
A33354 | Pray let me know, and I will instantly Argue my case, with all sobriety, For, if I once should hold my peace, I dye Will no man plead? |

A46807 | as if he should have said, What? |
A46807 | as if he should have said, what do you make of your self that you take so much upon you in regard of your knowledge, and in regard of your years? |
A46807 | as if he should have said, will you never have done? |
A46807 | as if they should have said, Hath not that God whom you served so zealously, and on whom you relyed with such confidence, forsaken you at last? |
A46807 | as is the second, and what profit shall I have? |
A46807 | as it is more clearly expressed in the following clause, or whether shall I flee from thy presence? |
A46807 | but the thunder of his power who can understand? |
A46807 | but, as one whose words were swallowed up with grief, he only saith, How long? |
A46807 | can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women? |
A46807 | can be judge through the dark cloud? |
A46807 | can he judge through the dark cloud? |
A46807 | can he judge through the dark cloud? |
A46807 | can he provide flesh for his people? |
A46807 | can not my tast discern perverse things?] |
A46807 | doe thereupon break forth into this expression of admiration, Who is this that cometh out of the wilderness, like pillars of smoak,& c? |
A46807 | dost thou flinch? |
A46807 | either it is meant of Iobs children, as if he had said, Hath not God destroyed both him, and his wicked brood too, his children? |
A46807 | for that best agreeth with the second clause, are not his daies also like the daies of an hireling? |
A46807 | friend, wherefore art thou come? |
A46807 | from whence should my help come? |
A46807 | have you uttered words suitable to and fit for a man in such a sad distressed condition as I am? |
A46807 | he expresseth himself thus, whose spirit came from thee? |
A46807 | he that formed the eye, shall he not see? |
A46807 | hereupon he adds this, Who hath prevented me? |
A46807 | how great is the summe of them? |
A46807 | how highly do I esteem of them? |
A46807 | if you die, must all the world needs die with you? |
A46807 | is it not to one that knoweth these things as well as your self? |
A46807 | is there any secret thing with thee?] |
A46807 | is your God dead, to whom you were wo nt to sing? |
A46807 | must you prescribe God when, in what manner, and how long he shall afflict you? |
A46807 | of himselfe or of some other man? |
A46807 | of this chapter, How much lesse shall I answer him, and chuse out words to reason with him? |
A46807 | of which see the Note there: Or else, as in relation to Iob himself, To whom hast thou uttered words? |
A46807 | or abide by thy crib?] |
A46807 | or are these things at thy disposing? |

A46807 | or canst thou mark when the hinds do calve?] |
A46807 | or do you think he will like it that you should plead his cause in such a manner? |
A46807 | or do you think that the spirit of God did dictate them to you? |
A46807 | or dost thou know in what estate all that are dead are? |
A46807 | or doth the Almighty pervert justice?] |
A46807 | or else the dog- star, with others that rise here in the Summer; Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? |
A46807 | or else to the evil which he chargeth upon him, wilt thou also disannull my judgement? |
A46807 | or fill the appetite of the young lions?] |
A46807 | or give a reward for me of your substance?] |

A46807 | or, To whom hast thou uttered words? |
A46807 | or, What affection dost thou bear towards me? |
A46807 | or, as it is in the Hebrew, not in thy time? |
A46807 | or, have not the Gentiles heard? |
A46807 | or, how long wilt thou proceed to disregard me, as if thou meantest never more to mind me? |
A46807 | or, jealousie? |
A46807 | or, that which when a man hath gotten, will usually be gone on a sudden? |
A46807 | or, the daies of my life? |
A46807 | or, there is no man to be compared to him; And who knoweth the interpretation of a thing? |

A46807 | shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect? |
A46807 | shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evill? |
A46807 | so here, Who is she? |
A46807 | that he interrupted Iob, and would not let him go on as he meant to have done, Should not, saith he, the multitude of words be answered? |
A46807 | that is, Did not God give thee that life and breath whereby thou hast spoken? |
A46807 | that is, How few are there that doe seriously consider or acknowledge this? |
A46807 | that is, I fear thou wilt, and it is that which hath made us forbear so long; but who can withhold himself from speaking? |
A46807 | that is, Is it to God you have addressed your words in this which you have spoken? |
A46807 | that is, What manner of woman is this? |
A46807 | that is, Who hath the winds absolutely at his disposing, so that he can hold them in or let them loose at his pleasure? |
A46807 | that is, Who is like to him? |
A46807 | that is, after thou hast ploughed them? |
A46807 | that is, among the mighty ones of the earth? |
A46807 | that is, bread- corn( for at that time they had none but manna) or meat; as the following words expresse it, Can he provide flesh for his people? |
A46807 | that is, canst thou make the dog- star and other fiery summer stars, or those stars that are hidden in the South, to shew themselves in their season? |
A46807 | that is, do ye not understand that their present prosperity, riches and honours, are sure tokens that there is wrath that abides them hereafter? |
A46807 | that is, doth not he exactly know, whether it be so or no? |
A46807 | that is, have you think you all the wisedome? |
A46807 | that is, how long wilt thou afflict me? |
A46807 | that is, how shall any man living be found so just in Gods sight, that when God corrects him he may justly complain, that he hath wrong done him? |
A46807 | that is, how should I carry my self towards God? |
A46807 | that is, how should I hence expect any help? |
A46807 | that is, if you be cut off and perish, must all the glory of the world needs perish with you? |
A46807 | that is, not only in adversity, but in his prosperity too? |
A46807 | that is, or canst thou hinder the influences of Orion, which brings in the winter season? |
A46807 | that is, say many Expositours, who can foresee it? |
A46807 | that is, say some Expositors, what hath he lesse then the rich man hath, whither wise or foolish? |
A46807 | that is, that falleth and dyeth and perisheth with the body? |
A46807 | that is, the truth of thy promises, or thy faithfulnesse in performing thy promises? |
A46807 | that is, thy friends, whom thou invitest, or thy fellow- fishermen, joyned in company with thee? |
A46807 | that is, to be hid from thy eye, that thou maist not know where I am? |
A46807 | that is, what dost thou look at? |
A46807 | that is, what is now become of the house of Job, that mighty man of estate, that lived formerly like a prince? |
A46807 | that is, what is now become of the house of that young gallant, your son and heir? |
A46807 | that is, wherefore am I so eagerly desirous to die? |
A46807 | that is, who can restrain the rain in the clouds from falling down upon the earth? |
A46807 | that is, who is it that hath taught you these high mysteries? |
A46807 | that is, who shall retort that upon God which he hath done? |
A46807 | that is, why are we scorned and despised, as if we were mere bruits that had no understanding? |
A46807 | that is, why do you so vainly conclude that God alwaies punisheth wicked men, and prospers the righteous, and thereupon condemn me for an hypocrite? |
A46807 | that is, why shouldest thou provoke God to cut thee off by an untimely death? |
A46807 | that is, will you thus contend and wrangle for God against that which you know to be just and right? |
A46807 | that is, wilt thou leave thy work in ploughing, carting,& c. to be done by him? |
A46807 | that looketh forth as the morning; that is, that appeareth as the morning doth after a dark night, fresh and faire, lightsome and chearfull? |
A46807 | that the tabernacles of robbers prosper and they that provoke God are secure,& c. who then would fear God or pray unto him? |
A46807 | that the wicked might be shaken out of it? |
A46807 | that thou art mindfull of him? |
A46807 | that thou shouldest despise the work of thine hands? |
A46807 | that thou shouldest despise the work of thine hands? |
A46807 | the cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it? |
A46807 | the cup which my father giveth me, shall I not drink it? |
A46807 | therefore some Expositours understand this clause thus, What profit is there in my bloud? |
A46807 | think you that I am so silly and ignorant, that I know not these things that you have uttered? |
A46807 | think you that I speak it as out of despair? |
A46807 | thou numbrest my steps: dost thou not watch over my sins? |
A46807 | to what end do you still hope in God, and pray to him and blesse him? |
A46807 | to wit, because for the most part they do not say, Where is God my maker? |
A46807 | to wit,( as it follows in the next verse) that the tryumphing of the wicked is short, and the joy of the hypocrite but for a moment? |
A46807 | we may read it also, Should thy devices make men hold their peace? |
A46807 | were it not much better with content and comfort to make use of that estate which God hath bestowed upon them? |
A46807 | what counsell or charge shall I give thee, rather then this which I shall now say to thee? |
A46807 | what do you take me to be? |
A46807 | what is the hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when God taketh away his soul? |
A46807 | what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of a man which is in him? |
A46807 | what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of a man which is in him? |
A46807 | what need I take so much care for my life? |
A46807 | what? |
A46807 | when will it be morning? |
A46807 | whence is it that he is so long a coming? |
A46807 | where is the Lord God of Elijah? |
A46807 | where is the man that dares be so bold as to doe this? |
A46807 | where we read that at the day of judgement the wicked shall say, The great day of his wrath is come, and who shall be able to stand? |
A46807 | wherefore are all they happy that deal very treacherously? |
A46807 | wherefore do I take my flesh in my teeth? |
A46807 | wherefore hath the Lord brought us into this land? |
A46807 | whereupon he adds also, and dost thou restrain wisedome to thy self? |
A46807 | which is evident in the following clause, shall the dust praise thee? |
A46807 | whither it thy beloved turned aside, that we may seek him with thee? |
A46807 | who among the sons of the mighty can be likened unto the Lord? |
A46807 | who art thou that judgest another mans servant? |
A46807 | who but a wicked man would doe it? |
A46807 | who can shew forth all his praise? |
A46807 | who hath babling? |
A46807 | who hath contentions? |
A46807 | who hath sorrow? |
A46807 | who hath wounds without cause? |
A46807 | who is this that darkneth counsell by words without knowledge? |
A46807 | who shall dwell in thy holy hill? |
A46807 | who shall dwell in thy holy hill?] |
A46807 | who shall repay him what he hath done? |
A46807 | who shall say to him, what doest thou? |
A46807 | who will say unto him, what dost thou?] |
A46807 | why did she not rather suffer me to fall from the womb to the earth, where I might have lyen and perished presently? |
A46807 | why do so many of you conspire mischief against one poor man? |
A46807 | will a lion roar in the forrest, when he hath no prey? |
A46807 | will a young lion cry out of his den, if he have taken nothing? |
A46807 | will a young lion cry out of his den, if he have taken nothing? |
A46807 | will he alwaies call upon God? |
A46807 | will he enter with thee into judgement?] |
A46807 | will you make your selves Gods? |
A46807 | will you undertake to teach the omniscient and all- wise God? |
A46807 | wilt thou bind him for thy maidens?] |
A46807 | wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? |
A46807 | yea though his afflictions be never so sore, and of never so long continuance? |
A46807 | yea to affect a kind of finenesse and eloquence in speaking, Faecundi calices quem non fecere disertum? |
A46807 | yea why may we not look upon that as an intimation, that he would in processe of time reveal himself savingly unto all the world? |
A46807 | yea, saith he, How long will ye vex my soul and break me in pieces with words? |
A46807 | yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the end of the world: as if he should have said, Have not the Jews heard? |
A46807 | yet I conceive the meaning of these words runs more clearly thus, If not, where and who is he? |
A46807 | you make account you have done great wonders; but, alas, what am I the better for all that you have spoken? |
A46807 | — He that planted the ear shall not he hear? |
A30242 | 1. how copious and overflowing he is in blessing of God for his manifold graces to the godly? |
A30242 | 1.19 Oh then, Who can bewail the imperfect and defective knowledge that is every where? |
A30242 | 10.24 The Disciples cry out, Who then can be saved? |
A30242 | 12. said, There was given him a thorn in the flesh; and it''s given to the godly to suffer, How is that? |
A30242 | 16.26? |
A30242 | 17.9? |
A30242 | 2. you see it was of old prophesied: Why do the Heathens rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? |
A30242 | 29.14? |
A30242 | 2? |
A30242 | 38 Divisions divided; their Nature, Causes, 39 Are ye not carnal, and walk as men? |
A30242 | 4. that woman of Samaria, who pleaded so carnaly for her false worship, Our fathers they worshiped here, and art thou greater then our fathers? |
A30242 | 8.20 And can the Disciple be above his Master? |
A30242 | ? |
A30242 | ? |
A30242 | A Serpent for a Fish without Wisdome? |
A30242 | A second Objection is, Is Christ only to be preached as the foundation? |
A30242 | A wounded spirit, who can bear? |
A30242 | Absolom''s ambition for the Kingdom, what a terrible shake did it make in Israel? |
A30242 | Alas, Could the material Sacrifice do that? |
A30242 | Alas, how many do not so much as understand the first principles? |
A30242 | Alas, how poor and contemptible are the highest notions even of Plato, though called Divine, when you come and read Paul? |
A30242 | All the doubt is, What the Apostle doth mean by the Day? |
A30242 | All those Martyrs, that lost their lives for the truths of God, were they not condemned as heretiques? |
A30242 | Am I afraid of a mans eye, and yet he can not damn me, he can not throw me into Hell? |
A30242 | And First, Doth God make use of severall Gifts for this end, to gain you; that if Boanerges do no good on you, Barnabas may? |
A30242 | And First, Is the Ministry thus one? |
A30242 | And First, It may be objected, How can Christ only be preached as a foundation? |
A30242 | And I of Christ? |
A30242 | And Paul himself, who had so much confidence, as to say, Who shall separate us from the love of God in Christ? |
A30242 | And are people to be built upon him? |
A30242 | And art not thou afraid thy house, thy estate, thy wealth, may be made by God a snare to thee? |
A30242 | And at another time, Paul renounced the cunning and deceitfull waies of humane wisdome; They did not come in such words: And why? |
A30242 | And could this be by the same spirit? |
A30242 | And did not many willingly suffer the Egyptian thraldom in Popery, who would not endure the yoke of the Gospel? |
A30242 | And do not the Orthodox say thus to the Papists? |
A30242 | And doth not Solomon, the wise man, pen an whole Book, to inform of this, that all is but vexation of spirit? |
A30242 | And doth not the Prophet Jonah tell us a good lesson, They that observe lying vanities, forsake their own mercy? |
A30242 | And here we may say in another sense, Thou that abhorrest Idols, doest thou commit sacriledge? |
A30242 | And how beautifull would the Tabernacle of the Lord have been, if this Foundation had been alwaies laid? |
A30242 | And how can they call, if they do not believe? |
A30242 | And how canst thou eat, sleep, and live in such a place? |
A30242 | And how greatly will the wilfull poverty of some misguided Zealots in Antiquity condemn us herein? |
A30242 | And how often at the same time doth thy conscience joyne with the Word, that thou art convinced? |
A30242 | And if Divine, How there can be a primary Object of Religious Worship, as God the Father, and a secondary Object, as Christ the Mediatour? |
A30242 | And if on the other side, God shall say, Depart ye cursed, can any thing withstand it? |
A30242 | And if so, Why doest thou ta ● e no more heed? |
A30242 | And if there be so much ado for an outward Kingdome, and earthly greatnesse, how much rather should this be prized and received? |
A30242 | And if there be so much joy, for reducing one straying Sheep, how much more of wandering Shepherds? |
A30242 | And if they are not such, then how apt are men to be Pharisees? |
A30242 | And if this was true of those extrordinary gifted persons, how much more of ordinary? |
A30242 | And if you ask, What Person it is in the God- head? |
A30242 | And in our forefathers daies, was not the Aegyptian darknesse of Popery, covering the whole world? |
A30242 | And is God only zealous of outward worship, not of inward? |
A30242 | And is not brawling and squabling the very trade, the meat and drink of many quarrelling people? |
A30242 | And is not here ground of quietnesse enough within thee? |
A30242 | And is not this as palpable here? |
A30242 | And is not this lesson of great consequence? |
A30242 | And so for our understanding and senses, and imagination, who is it that preserveth thee? |
A30242 | And so the Ministers of God may plead, Why are you become enemies and adversaries? |
A30242 | And so, How darest thou have heart- sinnes, saying, All is well because the world doth not behold it? |
A30242 | And the more waies he multiplyeth the worship of God, may it not be the more acceptable to him? |
A30242 | And then as for their mercies and their afflictions, how many times do these draw out their corruptions; and they seem to be the worse for them? |
A30242 | And then thy life, How pure is that? |
A30242 | And therefore we are not only to look to what we build, but why we build; Is it the glory of God, the salvation of mens souls? |
A30242 | And thus it is in regard of spiritual joy; You are apt to condemn the generation of the godly; Why will they be so strict and precise? |
A30242 | And thus truly God hath done with many glorious spiritual Temples under the Gospel: Where are the seven Churches of Asia? |
A30242 | And thus, when natural men wonder; saying, Why do these men thus pray, thus mourn, thus long after God? |
A30242 | And what a folly is this, to be miserable here, and miserable hereafter? |
A30242 | And what a support is this? |
A30242 | And what are these Gifts? |
A30242 | And whence is all this, but because David is a man after Gods own heart? |
A30242 | And where is the pure Church of Rome now? |
A30242 | And wherein is humility more seen, then in giving all to God? |
A30242 | And who hath that? |
A30242 | And who is scorned as a fool, but that man whom God pronounceth wise? |
A30242 | And why so, but that we should lift up our hearts and affections thither? |
A30242 | And why? |
A30242 | And will not God judge other sinners as well as these? |
A30242 | And wilt thou do as the most? |
A30242 | And, Shalt thou be bad to thy own soul, because God is good to others? |
A30242 | And, What made the Disciples so factiously preferre one above the other? |
A30242 | And, if so? |
A30242 | Are all our thoughts vain? |
A30242 | Are any hearts too strong for the Lord? |
A30242 | Are drunken men fit for to advise, to counsel, to carry on any work of consequence? |
A30242 | Are not many of our Assemblies in the world and of the world still, in respect of conversation? |
A30242 | Are not most men destitute of Christs Spirit? |
A30242 | Are not these things acknowledged by all? |
A30242 | Are not they preserved in their being? |
A30242 | Are not your hearts the more distracted and divided? |
A30242 | Are the Churches of God, thus Temples of God? |
A30242 | Are the Truths and Ordinances of God by institution, and in their original so pure? |
A30242 | Are there any more Christs? |
A30242 | Are they all to agree in one, in the same ends, in the same Doctrine? |
A30242 | Are we Atheists? |
A30242 | Are we not a Church, persons called out of wickednesse? |
A30242 | Are we not of the same house? |
A30242 | Are we not places prepared rather for the Devil and his evil Spirits to dwell with us, then Temples of the Holy Ghost? |
A30242 | Are ye more acquainted in the wayes of Religion and Piety? |
A30242 | Are ye not called to be holy as God is holy? |
A30242 | Are ye not carnal, and walk as men? |
A30242 | Are ye not carnall, because of this Envying? |
A30242 | Are ye not to do Gods will on earth, as Angels in heaven? |
A30242 | Are you like the green leaves in the river? |
A30242 | Art thou a Saint- lyer, a Saint- drunkard, a Saint- Blasphemer? |
A30242 | Art thou affected with him in a spiritual manner, as the Church is? |
A30242 | Art thou afraid of the eye of a man, and not of a great God? |
A30242 | Art thou drawn near to God, more improved in holinesse, by all the mercifull things thou hast? |
A30242 | Art thou in thy house, in thy neighbourhood, as a tree of life? |
A30242 | Art thou like one in a combate and conflict? |
A30242 | Art thou no Atheist, no mocker and scorner, no scepticall, or disputer in matters of Religion, but a serious, stedfast, and constant Believer? |
A30242 | Art thou not afraid of Gods wrath, of Gods vengeance? |
A30242 | Art thou not rather like the Owle, that seeth in the night, but not in the day? |
A30242 | Art thou not yet to lay the very foundation of godliness? |
A30242 | Art thou repining and carnally muttering, thou hast not this, thou hast not that? |
A30242 | As Elisha struck the waters of Jordan with Elijahs mantle, saying, Where is the God of Elijah? |

A30242 | It can not be want of love, that these exercises are upon thee, for is not Christ the great pledge of Gods love to thee? |
A30242 | It can not but grieve us, to see people damn themselves: Yet, How can we hinder a wilfull people from destruction? |
A30242 | It is greatly disputed, Whether the sinnes they may fall into, may be called reigning sinnes? |
A30242 | It is not my intent to enter into that Dispute of the learned, who planted the Gospel in England? |
A30242 | It is the day of his wrath, when Kingdomes and Nations feele the day of his temporal wrath, How sad hath it been? |
A30242 | It makes all out of order? |
A30242 | It should shame us to follow such a Christ, to be called by the name of this Christ; How ill do such an Head, and such members agree together? |
A30242 | It''s Christ, that should be our study, our meditation day and night, Quis sit,& qualis? |
A30242 | It''s good to suggest this truth to you; for who is there that doth acknowledge God in these common mercies? |
A30242 | It''s the great Question in this age, What is the matter of a Church? |
A30242 | It''s true, Interpreters do much dispute ▪ in what sense Abraham, and so all believers can be said to be heirs of the world? |
A30242 | Jonathans love to David is much commended, but what is that spark to this flame? |
A30242 | Judas, when tormented in in his conscience foa sinne, What could his thirty pieces of silver comfort him? |
A30242 | Judas, with what horrour doth he cry out? |
A30242 | Judge not of a mans blessednesse by this moment; our lives are shadows that passe away, what shalt thou be to all eternity? |
A30242 | Know also, there is wrath and vengeance for the refusal of these, And who can bear them? |
A30242 | Know ye not that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ, were baptized into his death? |
A30242 | Know ye not, that the Word you hear, is the Word of the great and living God? |
A30242 | Know ye not, that ye are the Temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? |
A30242 | Know ye not, that ye are the Temple of God? |
A30242 | Know ye not? |
A30242 | Lastly, Consider the manner of Paul''s expression, Who is Paul? |
A30242 | Learn of David, How wonderfully was he affected with Gods word? |
A30242 | Let us consider, How many wayes even by godly eminent men, he may hurt the Church? |
A30242 | Look upon the Prophets and Apostles in their Ministry; Were men any better then mad Dogs, and Lyons against them, till God changed them? |
A30242 | Lord, how have I been a foolish, and ignorant man to day? |
A30242 | Lovest thou me? |
A30242 | Maiest thou not justly expect, that as God said to those Idolaters, They should call and see if their Idol gods would hear and deliver them? |
A30242 | Many say, Who will shew us any good? |
A30242 | May not the Devil come with seven more tormenting Devils then ever, if thou provoke God to withdraw his gracious presence? |
A30242 | May they not fast and humble themselves? |
A30242 | May we not say to every prophane and formal man, Know ye not, that Prayer is a Communion with the most high God? |
A30242 | Mayest thou not say, as the Prophet to the Church, How long shall vain thoughts lodge in thee? |
A30242 | Mayest thou not trust God upon his Word? |
A30242 | Mischief shall come upon mischief, one calamity upon another: And what then? |
A30242 | Must they not set ladders and climb up themselves alone to Heaven, as Constantine told a Novatian? |
A30242 | My lusts, my wickednesse, have taken God from me, how can I then but rore out? |
A30242 | Nay, doth not the Devil and sinne discover themselves dwelling in them? |
A30242 | Never did a man, weary of the night, more desire to see the day, then thou doest the gracious light of his countenance to thee? |
A30242 | None may take upon them to appoint what is to be believed? |
A30242 | Not what sinne thou hast; but what righteousnesse Christ hath? |
A30242 | Now alas, are the foolish and unwarrantable opinions and doctrines of men able to produce such gracious effects? |
A30242 | Now herein people not diligently meditate, Whose servants do we professe our selves to be? |
A30242 | Now how great a matter is this very word Church? |
A30242 | Now how many men do abhorre and disdain this, thinking all such Church- subjection, worse than Turkish slavery? |
A30242 | Now how must a Christian in every Prayer about temporal things, pray without doubting? |
A30242 | Now how uncomely is it( as we formerly shewed) if thou a man so old, so long hearing the Word preached, canst not discharge these personal duties? |
A30242 | Now how was that made good? |
A30242 | Now if one member should envy the good of another, how quickly would the whole be consumed? |
A30242 | Now if profit, and only profit be intended by God, how wilt thou answer it at the last day, that hast neither profited in knowledg or practise? |
A30242 | Now if thou hast many years been under these droppings, and yet art a dry wildernesse, how unsufferable is it? |
A30242 | Now if we had a righteousnesse of our own works, how could it be imputed without works? |
A30242 | Now if you ask, When may it fall out, that though the Ministry laboureth, yet God doth not work with it? |
A30242 | Now if you do believe this indeed, how darest thou do those things in secret, which thou wouldst not have the world know? |
A30242 | Now much dispute there hath been among Heathens, What wisdome is? |
A30242 | Now should not this Argument be like a sword in thy bowels: What? |
A30242 | Now the Grounds, Why a faithfull Ministry doth thus? |
A30242 | Now then supposing this, Who can plead for that damnable ignorance in many people, that have lived so many years, where the Word hath been preached? |
A30242 | Now then, is not this very dangerous to thee, to place thy heart upon that which will be poyson and bane to thee? |
A30242 | Now then, what an astonishing consideration is this? |
A30242 | Now these are allegorical expressions, and you may ask, What is the plain meaning of them? |
A30242 | Now they cry out, What have I to do with sinne any more? |
A30242 | Now to believe such a day coming, of so impartiall a Judge, in such a terrible manner, might it not take off every man from his dearest sinnes? |
A30242 | Now to purge this fountain, How many zealous Prophets did God raise up in his time? |
A30242 | Now to what purpose is an eloquent Pathetical Oration to a dead man? |
A30242 | Now what a sad condition is this, to be stript naked of all? |
A30242 | Now what is it to be a servant of men? |
A30242 | Now what wonderfull comfort may be suggested from hence? |
A30242 | Now where is the man that attends to this? |
A30242 | Now wherein was he overcome? |
A30242 | Now whether wilt thou believe God, or thy own fearfull heart? |
A30242 | Now( alas) how can our Ministry be for growth to such, who are not so much as babes, who are not yet begotten anew by the Word? |
A30242 | Now( alas) who thinketh of these things? |
A30242 | Now, How many are there, that are not acquainted themselves with the depths of Satan, that are no better Comforters then Jobs Friends were? |
A30242 | Now, how contrary is this to Scripture, which bids us, Search the Scriptures, Try the Spirits; Not think of man above what is meet? |
A30242 | Now, how different, and poor, and contemptible are these to this heavenly Joy? |
A30242 | Now, how great a skill is it, wisely to reprove, to have zeal and knowledge together? |
A30242 | Now, what is faith? |
A30242 | Now, what tongue of men or Angels is able to speak of them? |
A30242 | O Lord, How often have I been an hearer? |
A30242 | O Lord, am I not thy husbandry? |
A30242 | O Lord, if the presence of thy Spirit be not with us, we can not discharge those duties, who is sufficient to preach? |
A30242 | O death, where is thy sting? |
A30242 | Of Instruction, Why the Devil in all ages hath still set himself against the faithfull Ministery? |
A30242 | Oh but how much unwise and unfaithfull preaching is there in this respect? |
A30242 | Oh foolish and unwise? |
A30242 | Oh how greatly doth the Land mourn to bear such unclean persons? |
A30242 | Oh how many are sick of this spiritual lethargy? |
A30242 | Oh how unreasonable is it that thy heart should be so unwilling, so listlesse, so repining? |
A30242 | Oh how vain a thing and wicked is it to boast in riches, beauty, outward greatnesse, and any of these fading things? |
A30242 | Oh how will this cut thy heart one day? |
A30242 | Oh if ye were branches in him, how could such ignorance and prophanenesse be in many mens lives? |
A30242 | Oh now, thou wouldst weep over thy husband, thy child, if they were corporally dead, why doest thou not much more for their spiritual death? |
A30242 | Oh say, What a proficient might I have been, if I had still pursued forward and forward? |
A30242 | Oh then if envy at any time stirre in thy heart, say, Did Christ do thus? |
A30242 | Oh then, consider, Where is thy joy, thy love? |
A30242 | Oh then, how cometh it about, that thou hast lived so long under the means, and knowest not these things? |
A30242 | Oh then, how few persons, how few Congregations can endure the lustre of this Doctrine? |
A30242 | Oh then, how holy, how godly, how orderly should all our Assemblies be? |
A30242 | Oh then, how humble tender and carefull ought men to be? |
A30242 | Oh then, how inexcusable is thy negligence, thy dissolutenesse? |
A30242 | Oh then, how speechlesse wilt thou be at the great day, when God shall arraign thee? |
A30242 | Oh then, what a curb should this be to thy heart, to thy thoughts? |
A30242 | Oh then, why should the godly live to sinne or Satan, or the world any more? |
A30242 | Oh what a beast, what a Devil was I for thinking so? |
A30242 | Oh what a confusion will it be, to see all thy Religion, all thy morality thrown into hell, for want of a sure foundation? |
A30242 | Oh where is thy Spirit? |
A30242 | Oh whose image and superscription is this? |
A30242 | Oh, were we thus planted at first, or were we reformed to be thus? |
A30242 | Oh, what a dreadfull thing may this be, for thee to think thou hast more light than ever, when it may be thou art in more darknesse than ever? |
A30242 | Oh, what fruit, what reformation shouldst thou shew forth? |
A30242 | Only consider at this time, the interrogative Introduction, Know ye not? |
A30242 | Or like the blinde Sodomites, went groping up and down for the door, and could not find it; they knew not where, or what blessednesse was? |
A30242 | Or rather, Why is he called a Spirit? |
A30242 | Or, subdue thy corruptions, when thou believest greater matters in Doctrine? |
A30242 | Otherwise; Why should Paul bless God so much for that Providence, that he had baptized so few? |
A30242 | Ought all ministerial abilities to be imployed in one way? |
A30242 | Our Saviour would not have any peece of material bread lost, but asketh them, how many baskets full took they up? |
A30242 | Phil 3 Did not the holy Ghost descend in the form of fire, with a mighty rushing wind, to signifie how active it is in those that are godly? |
A30242 | Say, as he did, Why do we fall out, seeing we are Brethren? |
A30242 | Secondly, But knowledge is not all; How many Atheists are there, that know much, and understand the points of Religion, yet believe not? |
A30242 | Secondly, You may ask, If God onely give increase, What means may we take to have God blesse us in this manner? |
A30242 | See there is no worship, no service of God, but thou must be able to answer this Question, Who hath required it? |
A30242 | Seeing we are builders, How behove ● lli ● it to build such sound solid matter, that will abide? |
A30242 | Seeing we are such a barren wilderness, what fruit can ever be expected from us? |
A30242 | Seekest thou great things for thy self? |
A30242 | Setting aside the name, what is there either for knowledg or life, more than is in a meer Pagan or Heathen? |
A30242 | Shall Christ not seek his own glory? |
A30242 | Shall David be afraid of his secret sinnes and errors which he understands not? |
A30242 | Shall God out of his great love provide these mercies for thee, and thou go away with no advantage at all? |
A30242 | Shall I part with my happinesse and blessednesse I have in God, and go and tear my self with bryers? |
A30242 | Shall I take the Temple of God, and make it a publick stew for all lusts? |
A30242 | Shall Paul be afraid, though he knew nothing by himself, and darest thou hope or think to be saved by any works thou hast done? |
A30242 | Shall not he exalt his own will? |
A30242 | Shall not he seek to please himself? |
A30242 | Shall not the cause have more in it than the effect? |
A30242 | Shall the Psalmist so admire Gods love, in giving man the beasts of the field, that he crieth out, What is man that thou art so mindfull of him? |
A30242 | Shall the food of my body be got with the sweat of my browes, and not much rather eternal Glory hereafter? |
A30242 | Shall things present, shall things to come? |
A30242 | Shall we judge it a life? |
A30242 | Shall we sinne( saith Paul) that grace may abound? |
A30242 | Should I be willing, to have the Lord deal with me, as I desire to others? |
A30242 | Should it be so great a matter to believe, that God will raise up the Church, when it hath no help? |
A30242 | Si tanta pulchritudo in creaturâ, quanta in creatore, as the Antient said? |
A30242 | So inordinate and worldly cares; we see how such do even devour men; they have so many thorns in their flesh; and what life do such live? |
A30242 | So is every one, that is, such a fool is every one: Yet how is this folly praised for wisdome in this world? |
A30242 | So it would be here, Why are any damned? |
A30242 | So it''s here: When the wrath of God shall be ready to arise against thee, Why hast thou b ● oken this Command? |
A30242 | So that as little children are cheerfull and play, never troubling themselves, how they shall subsist, and what if such miseries arise? |
A30242 | So that he may in his heart, say, Who will sh ● w me any good? |
A30242 | So that if you ask, How all present and future things, life and death are ours? |
A30242 | So that these in the text, will every day complain, Who will shew us any good? |

A30242 | Why doth the Lutherans spirit, and Calvinists disagree? |
A30242 | Why hast thou not forsaken thy evil wayes? |
A30242 | Why hast thou trasgressed this Law? |
A30242 | Why hath Satan filled thy heart? |
A30242 | Why is it neglected by thee? |
A30242 | Why is it said, That wicked men shall not live out half their daies, but that the ungodlinesse of men doth bring them to untimely deaths? |
A30242 | Why is it that they are never satisfied, but in him? |
A30242 | Why is this? |
A30242 | Why is thy anger kindled like fire? |
A30242 | Why might not he have thought it had been some good Angel, or there was some writing for him to encrease his kingdome? |
A30242 | Why might not we have been born in those days, while Britany was Paganish and Heathenish? |
A30242 | Why not at the end of every Sermon dost thou not aske, How hath this profited me? |
A30242 | Why not fools and mad men, capable of any benefit by the Word preached? |
A30242 | Why saith he thus to Gehezi? |
A30242 | Why should God give any more increase, when thou hast abated from that former efficacy and vigour of grace? |
A30242 | Why should death then be grievous to thee, when God hath no more for thee to do here, when thou canst be no more usefull to promote his glory? |
A30242 | Why should they be blamed, if they get no good by the Ordinances, if they profit not under the Ministry, for God did not intend them for their good? |
A30242 | Why so? |
A30242 | Why so? |
A30242 | Why then are we so apt to magnifie our self- glory, our own will, our own advantage? |
A30242 | Why then are we such Apostates, as to degenerate from our Titles and Names? |
A30242 | Why then are ye as men? |
A30242 | Why then art thou afraid of man, and not God? |
A30242 | Why then art thou pleasing thy selfe with the actions thou doest, when thou art in the old, polluted, defiled nature? |
A30242 | Why then doest thou not trust in God only? |
A30242 | Why then dost thou say, I must know how to work, how to plow, to sow, to maintain my natural life, and not also be as diligent about thy supernatural? |
A30242 | Why then dost thou stumble in the day? |
A30242 | Why then have ye been rebellious? |
A30242 | Why then in these later dayes Heathenish Nations do not receive the faith, as in former times who can divine? |
A30242 | Why then is it, that it hath not been so to thee? |
A30242 | Why then lieth it thus ruinous? |
A30242 | Why then should not that truth fill our mouths and our hearts here, which will possesse our souls to all eternity? |
A30242 | Why those that are godly for the main are called carnal? |
A30242 | Why will they not runne into the same excesse of sinne, and enjoy the ungodly pleasures of the world as others do? |
A30242 | Why, did they not believe before? |
A30242 | Why? |
A30242 | Will a good work thus circumstantiated be sure to be rewarded? |
A30242 | Will all their distinctions be any better than meer cob- webs in this matter? |
A30242 | Will not all this hony turn into choler? |
A30242 | Will not men judge them in this world? |
A30242 | Will not my torments be according to my pleasures? |
A30242 | Will not this be bitternesse in the later end? |
A30242 | Will not this condemn thee at the Day of Judgment? |
A30242 | Will thy pleasures of sinne continue with thee, when the pangs and throbs of death shall once surprize thee? |
A30242 | Will thy wealth avail thee in the day of Gods wrath? |
A30242 | With what delight and alacrity did they exhort one another to go to the house of the Lord? |
A30242 | Woe be to thee, if the Word that is so effectual and operative to others, be not also to thee Who is Paul? |
A30242 | Worse then when we worship the true God, after a false and unlawfull manner; yet how severely doth God punish this kind of Idolatry? |
A30242 | Would he have become poor, to make thee rich? |
A30242 | Would not worldly men think this was his folly, rather than faith? |
A30242 | Would these be as good as a God to me? |
A30242 | Would you be a people capable of this duty? |
A30242 | Wouldst thou receive the richest goods that are brought into thy house, if the plague or infection were on them? |
A30242 | Wouldst thou regard the titles and names of things, if thou find the clear contrary? |
A30242 | Yea in the first times of Reformation from Popery, How many did not only receive the truth in their minds, but grace in their hearts? |
A30242 | Yes how ready are we to say, these are our parts, our gifts? |
A30242 | Yet how hardly have we any of these humane excellencies or comforts, and not boast of them? |

A30242 | Yet where is the Christian to spiritual, so Gospelized, as to go out of all his duties, resting on Christ only? |
A30242 | Yet who can perswade men to leave their carnal jollity, and to tast how good and pleasant the wayes of God are? |
A30242 | Yet, What a barren wilderness is my heart? |
A30242 | Yet, if Christs Righteousnesse, his worth be all, why wilt thou be a Christ to thy self? |
A30242 | You can not bear the Sermon, that bids thee, Depart from sinne, How then that terrible sentence, which bids thee, Depart into everlasting burnings? |
A30242 | You care not for that Ground, which never will yield a crop after all cost upon it; How can God indure thee? |
A30242 | You have deprived me of God, and do you ask what I aile? |
A30242 | You may say, who refuse Christ speaking from heaven? |
A30242 | You that are godly especially, take heed of this: How contrary is this spirit of envy, to that love Christ hath put into you? |
A30242 | and do I not tremble at Gods eye? |
A30242 | and how can they believe, if they do not know? |
A30242 | and if ye were without chastisement, ye were bastards, and no children? |
A30242 | and should every one of us be thus in particular? |

A30242 | how happy is it when the Ministery is profitable to thee, and thou art profiting to it? |
A30242 | how many like Devils? |
A30242 | how wise should the godly man be? |
A30242 | ibid The properties of the Ministry as such a cause, 69 Who is Paul? |

A69777 | But why to an Oil poured forth? |
A69777 | But will some poor Soul say? |
A69777 | But will some say, is not this as hard to be discerned as any thing else? |
A69777 | But will some say, what should, what can we do to uphold our communion with Christ and to maintain a sense of it? |
A69777 | But you will say what can we do toward it, is not the Spirit of Christ free, as the wind, which bloweth where it listeth? |
A69777 | But you will say, How shall we know that Christ hath thus loved us? |
A69777 | But you will say, are these things in our power? |
A69777 | But you will say, how shall we know this, whether Christ be our chief joy? |
A69777 | But you will say, is not manifestative love promised? |
A69777 | But you will say, were there such a beauty, such an excellency in Christ, why should not every rational man enquire after him, and love him? |
A69777 | But you will say, what need these words? |
A69777 | But, will some say, If they have had experience of the Loves of Christ, why should they yet desire them? |
A69777 | By their fruits you shall know them, do men gather grapes of Thorns; or Figs of Thistles? |
A69777 | By way of Explication, I shall enquire, what is meant by pleasant? |
A69777 | By way of Explication; the only Question is, What Flock, what Shepherds are here spoken of? |
A69777 | Can a man be a Member of Christ, and a Member of a Harlot? |
A69777 | Can not he give Eternal Life? |
A69777 | Can not he give the Soul a righteousness wherein the Soul shall another day stand before God, and not appear naked? |
A69777 | Can not he give the Soul the pardon of sin, and sense of that pardon, which produceth that peace which is past all understanding? |
A69777 | Can this Soul say, Behold thou art fair my Beloved, yea pleasant? |
A69777 | Can we create to our selves Doves Eyes? |
A69777 | Can we say, and say it, cordially, he shall lodge betwixt our breasts? |
A69777 | Can you be rich in clothes, and habits, and rich in good works also? |

A69777 | Christ commendeth the Cheeks of his Saints bedewed with tears, and given to the smiters for his sake, how beautiful saith he are thy Cheeks? |
A69777 | Christ hath Loves for us, why should there be found in our hearts, or ways, any hatred to, or opposition against him? |
A69777 | Christ is preparing new measures of grace for, giving out new measures of grace to me? |

A69777 | Come( saith the Woman of Samaria) and see the Man that hath told me all things that I ever did, Is not this the Christ? |
A69777 | Comfort me? |
A69777 | Consider first, How little reason there is for you to be offended? |
A69777 | Consider how unreasonable a thing it is, that thou shouldest trust to the word of a man, and distrust the Word of a God? |
A69777 | David crieth out, when wilt thou comfort me? |
A69777 | David did so: His Eyes failed, while he said; When wilt thou comfort me? |
A69777 | Diabolical suggestions are another cause; what strange and horrid impressions do the best of Gods people find? |

A69777 | Do they drink, and whore, steal and murder, gripe and oppress? |
A69777 | Do they swear and curse, and Blaspheme like you or many others? |
A69777 | Do you ask me how you should shew your Love to him? |
A69777 | Do you pray for it? |
A69777 | Do you say I must pray, I and my House must seek the Lord, I must hear that my Soul live, my labour in my calling, that may stay? |
A69777 | Do you use to say to your friend? |
A69777 | Do your necessities call, and for the present bind you to it? |
A69777 | Doest thou ask me how can this be? |
A69777 | Doest thou ask what thou shouldest do? |
A69777 | Doest thou like an ingenuous Soul ask what Christ would have thee be? |
A69777 | Dost thou ask me what I mean by behaving thy self well? |
A69777 | Dost thou call this no answer? |
A69777 | Dost thou find more ability to spiritual duties, more freedom and liveliness in the performance of them? |
A69777 | Dost thou live like a Virgin, an hidden life? |
A69777 | Doth Abigail think it an honour to be but a Servant to an Earthly David? |
A69777 | Doth God hear Ephraim bemoaning himself thus? |
A69777 | Doth adorning our selves with Jewels and Silks, and Ribbands, patchings and paintings, speak a mortified heart to the World? |
A69777 | Doth any now further ask whence it is that true grace where- ever it resides will send forth its smell? |
A69777 | Doth any one ask whence it is that the name of Christ is so sweet to the Soul? |
A69777 | Doth he call Simon and Andrew from their Nets to follow him, upon a promise that they shall be made Fishers of men? |
A69777 | Doth his promise fail for evermore? |
A69777 | Doth his promise fail for evermore? |
A69777 | Doth not the Father, the Heavenly Father love him above all other objects? |
A69777 | Doth she pride her self in secret thoughts, saying, This is my Beloved, This is my Husband? |
A69777 | Doth she promise for more than she would pray for? |
A69777 | Doth the Lord nest in that answer? |
A69777 | Doth the Womans heart leap when she hears her Husband magnified? |
A69777 | Doth( saith he) the Spouse speak this, desiring to be dissolved, and to be with Christ? |
A69777 | Doubtless neither: what then? |
A69777 | Duty in us is not the Father of Grace, for who hath given first unto God, and it shall be repaid to him again? |
A69777 | Even the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords; who is his Son but the Lord Jesus Christ? |
A69777 | Every Sinner naturally saith, Who will shew us any good? |
A69777 | First, Why are the Saints of God called Virgins? |

A10933 | And what wonder, if they iudge it impossible, in their deepe distresses and crosses, that euer they should wade out of them? |
A10933 | And when a man is wholly at home, is he not fitter for any good dutie, then when hee is absent in great part from himselfe? |
A10933 | And when his sinne so wounded his conscience, that the halter made an end of his life? |
A10933 | And when is this might giuen to men? |
A10933 | And when she came to him to aske of her father a field, and she lighted off her asse, and Caleb said vnto her, What wilt thou? |
A10933 | And where it is added, Why sattest thou among the sheepfolds to heare the bleating of the flockes? |
A10933 | And whereas it might be said, Was all this abomination done in Israel? |
A10933 | And who can expresse the bitter sorrowes and checks and feares which they feele, who carrie an ill conscience about them? |
A10933 | And who doth not see it necessarie, that the Lord should deale thus with vs? |
A10933 | And who is Shechem, that we should serue him? |
A10933 | And who is little troubled about seeking assurance of his saluation? |
A10933 | And who knoweth what he would haue done, if the triall had been hottest, when hee was weakest? |
A10933 | And who of Gods deare children haue not so felt and found it, in one trouble or triall and other, and at one time or other? |
A10933 | And who seeth it not to be a great grace in any man to doe so? |
A10933 | And who would not haue said, that their preparation against the Israelites, must needs in the reason of man, haue wrought an vtter ouerthrow of them? |
A10933 | And who, fearing God, might haue liued by them, if they could haue prolonged their daies? |
A10933 | And why doe I set downe all this about the matter in hand? |
A10933 | And why doe they thus? |
A10933 | And why doth God this? |
A10933 | And why not? |
A10933 | And why should it seeme strange that the Lord should doe more then wee can see? |
A10933 | And why this? |
A10933 | And why this? |
A10933 | And why this? |
A10933 | And why was this? |
A10933 | And why? |
A10933 | And why? |
A10933 | And why? |
A10933 | And why? |
A10933 | And why? |
A10933 | And why? |
A10933 | And why? |
A10933 | And would he( thinke wee) haue vowed that which might haue turned to his owne, and his daughters so great sorrow? |
A10933 | And yet because it could not be possible that the Church of God should be ouerthrowne, did not he most strangely deliuer it? |
A10933 | And yet how are the poore griped and pilled? |
A10933 | And yet in their iollitie who haue such apparance of hope, and so great confidence in their estate, that it shall continue, as they? |
A10933 | And yet what a rare instrument did he make him, to worke the greatest deliuerance for his people that euer was heard off to be wrought by a meere man? |
A10933 | And yet what is lesse thought on? |
A10933 | And yet who is he that sheweth foorth this meeknesse and wisedome? |
A10933 | And yet who knoweth not, that these serue vs here only in this temporall life? |
A10933 | And yet, Oh what a sweet libertie it is thought to be, to inioy fellowship with such? |
A10933 | Another thing note we here, how soone and earnestly they inquired who should deface their Baal, and strippe him of his ornaments? |
A10933 | Art thou the man( saith hee) that appeared to the woman? |
A10933 | As Abraham said; I saw that the feare of God was not in this place, and therefore what trustinesse is to bee looked for to me of men? |
A10933 | As alas who seeth not what waies there are to bring this about? |
A10933 | As first, how many soules doth an ignorant, idle or scandalous Minister destroy and cause to perish? |
A10933 | As for such, let them crie out of vnfaithfulnes till they be weary, who will pitie them? |
A10933 | As here may be seene, where Abimelech for his great promises, was repaired and cleaued vnto: but what got they in the end who did so? |
A10933 | As if he should haue said, I saued your liues, you sitting at home with ease, what reason haue yee therefore thus to come against me? |
A10933 | As if he should haue saide, haue I not cause to be here? |
A10933 | As indeed what punishment can equall that sinne, which ouerthroweth all ciuill societie and( the sinewes thereof) religion itselfe? |
A10933 | As on the contrary, when there is warre or persecution, Oh what feare and danger is there? |
A10933 | As they finde it, who will not be held from marrying in Popish kindred, and with persons well knowne to bee vncircumcised? |
A10933 | As who beholding Lamech in his furie and outrage, and hearing the terrour of his words, would not abhorre him and his qualities? |
A10933 | As who saw, that mightie Pharaoh, Sisera, and the Midianites here spoken of, were like to be brought to such a downfall as they were? |
A10933 | As, who almost, can be so suddenly come vpon, but he hath a shift in readinesse? |
A10933 | But alas how raw and rude, yea what bunglers are men in the trade of all trades? |
A10933 | But alas what commeth of the most of these his corrections and sharp dealings with such? |
A10933 | But alas, as for the common sort whereunto shall I liken them? |
A10933 | But alas, what care is there had of this? |
A10933 | But alas, who beleeueth our report, till he see it verified? |
A10933 | But although these are dangerous errors( as who can say lesse of them?) |
A10933 | But as for good examples, where shall we finde them? |
A10933 | But could they preuaile? |
A10933 | But did he escape as cleerely then, as before? |
A10933 | But did not our Sauiour shew them their fault, so as they saw it? |
A10933 | But did they make warre with either of both? |
A10933 | But did this present terror so worke in these? |
A10933 | But hee being one of the cursed nations, how could they( ye wil aske) promise him mercy? |
A10933 | But how much more cruell are they who murther many soules for want of due foode? |
A10933 | But how soone was all his honour laid in the dust, and his ioy ended with most bitter anguish and torment? |
A10933 | But how, and where lay the strength to effect this? |
A10933 | But if they had attempted any such matter against him, as to make him infamous, as hee made himselfe, would he not streight haue reuenged it? |
A10933 | But if this be, is it all? |
A10933 | But in all this, what allowance haue they from God, or libertie to do so? |
A10933 | But it is otherwise with vs; for we, for the most part, first serue our selues( what though in doing things that are lawfull?) |
A10933 | But let vs examine the words: Are Zeba and Zalmunna in thy hands alreadie? |
A10933 | But oh faithfulnes, how precious and much to be desired art thou? |
A10933 | But oh man, is this the way for thee to procure to thy selfe compassion from others, if thou shouldest fall so, and hadst the like need? |
A10933 | But oh what might be said of this argument? |
A10933 | But oh, at what a rate would most men buy the lengthening of their miserie? |
A10933 | But oh, had it not been much better for such to haue admitted counsell before, against an irrecouerable mischiefe? |
A10933 | But oh, how slow and dull are we in taking hold vpon any such thing as might stay vs, quiet, resolue, and comfort vs? |
A10933 | But oh, what a mercie of God was this to them, that the Midianites were held in all this while? |
A10933 | But put case thou escape this plague from men, is there not a God who can bee cruell with the cruell, as well as froward with the froward? |
A10933 | But put the case there be some excellencie in him that boasteth: doth boasting beseeme such a man? |
A10933 | But she that will deale so with her friend, namely her husband, what, thinke we, would such an one doe to her enemie? |
A10933 | But shortly after, how should they haue done( when Nahash came vpon them) if that despised fellow( as they accounted of him) had not holpen them? |
A10933 | But some will aske perhaps, Why? |
A10933 | But some will aske, Might not God raigne ouer them though hee had also? |
A10933 | But some will aske, What then shall we doe to such? |
A10933 | But some will obiect: What is this to vs, who abstaine from many wiues and are prohibited by law such licentiousnesse? |
A10933 | But that men liuing in the Church should shew such brutish ingratitude, who should beleeue it that sees it not? |
A10933 | But the Figtree answered them, Should I for sake my sweetnesse and my good fruit, and goe to aduance me aboue the trees? |
A10933 | But the Vine said vnto them, Should I leaue my wine, whereby I cheare God and man, and goe to aduance me aboue the trees? |
A10933 | But their disposition is, to run on head to bee set on gadding, rouing,& c. And wherefore stay or waite they? |
A10933 | But then, oh what an inuentorie makes hee of his seuerall losses? |
A10933 | But though there might much more be said of this point to the like purpose, yet who beleeueth these things? |
A10933 | But to whom are good people commonly daintiest? |
A10933 | But we neede not wonder at that; for what reason doe such professe to yeelde of their doings? |
A10933 | But what answere heard he? |
A10933 | But what better fruit might be looked for, when Gods ordinance was broken? |
A10933 | But what came of it? |
A10933 | But what came of it? |
A10933 | But what did the Lord? |
A10933 | But what manner of euidence giueth hee? |
A10933 | But what of this some( perhaps) will say? |
A10933 | But what other fruite was to be expected at their hands, who came ready armed to trie the matter by force? |
A10933 | But what remedie? |
A10933 | But what shall I say of this nation of ours? |
A10933 | But what should wee doe( yee will aske) when God giueth vs such a wealthie and a comfortable outward estate? |
A10933 | But what then? |
A10933 | But what was this in respect of that which she requireth; namely, that all stand forth in it together? |
A10933 | But what will not such aduenture, as are set vpon mischiefe? |
A10933 | But when it was tasted of them, what gall or wormewood was euer like bitter vnto it? |
A10933 | But where are these to bee found almost among the better sort? |
A10933 | But where did God require virginitie to be inioyned to any children by their parents? |
A10933 | But where is this to be seene? |
A10933 | But where might one make an end of this discourse? |
A10933 | But where should he learne it? |
A10933 | But whether is it better( as hee in the history answered) to raise vp a new, or to bury the old Gentrie and Nobilitie? |
A10933 | But whither might a man goe in this argument? |
A10933 | But who could haue thought, that you would hereafter, saith the Lord to them, haue reuolted from me? |
A10933 | But who could perswade them to doe otherwise before? |
A10933 | But who is in fault? |
A10933 | But who is warned by others woe? |
A10933 | But who seeth it an absurd vnseemely thing in the wealthy, to play the Lords and controllers ouer the baser and poorer sort? |
A10933 | But who seeth not( euen in this) Gods indifferencie? |
A10933 | But who watcheth to take this opportunity hereunto, but letteth it passe rather through sloth, worldlinesse, frowardnesse,& c? |
A10933 | But who would thinke, that so many should consent together so boldly to maintaine a false matter? |
A10933 | But why did they so? |
A10933 | But why doe such hinder the course of their Ministerie? |
A10933 | But ye will aske how that appeareth, that we may rest perswaded of it, seeing it may bee doubted of as well as of any other part of the storie? |
A10933 | But yet for all this is one of a thousand( thinke we) of such as he was perswaded to repentance in the time of his iolitie? |
A10933 | But( alas) who finds that grace in the strength oftentatiō who sought it not before? |
A10933 | By which we may also see, that God alloweth wealthy men to occupie and prosper in their calling; for why? |
A10933 | Call yee this loue? |
A10933 | Can a rush grow without mire? |
A10933 | Can any of vs draw from the head, any influence of grace, if wee will be singular by our selues, or separate our selues from our brethren? |
A10933 | Can they( will they, nill they) resist the motion of the ship wherein both saile? |
A10933 | Consider then what an odious thing is that, which causeth such odious effects? |
A10933 | Contrariwise, what is it that makes a man count good men odious? |
A10933 | Dauid would haue builded God an house, then the which who could haue gone about a better thing in all mens account and iudgement? |
A10933 | Did I euer promise thee( saith he) that no aduersitie should betide thee? |
A10933 | Did he not so to Iphtah? |
A10933 | Did not God effect it without these? |
A10933 | Did you not call vpon me at other times, and were heard? |
A10933 | Doe they not embrace each other as Ioab did Abner, in their armes, when they goe about their pot- companionship? |
A10933 | Doe we not hang downe the head and faint, and say within our selues, this crosse will be our vndoing? |
A10933 | Doe we not see that among men, one periured, or a forger, is disabled from euer bearing any witnesse, against or for any, in publike court? |
A10933 | Doe we say, It must be thus, and is expedient for vs? |
A10933 | Doe wee not see that the weather, or a little sicknesse, disabling a man to worke, causeth complaining? |
A10933 | Doth not God set a brand both vpon them and their cursed fruit? |
A10933 | Doth not treason taint euen the blood of the traitor, so that( euen when he is loyall) he goeth for no better? |
A10933 | Doth the foote enuie the eye because it seeth, or the eye the foote because it goeth? |
A10933 | Eight yeeres sore bondage, with the discommodities and irksomenesse that accompany it, for a little liberty to liue at their pleasure? |
A10933 | Else why should it not be the case of all aswellas of some? |
A10933 | Enuie, what? |
A10933 | Euen as he said to Gedeon here, doth the Midianites oppressing of you seeme impossible to be auoided? |
A10933 | Euen so, doe wee not daily see the flourishing estates of men turned to most desolate decay? |
A10933 | Euen so, to come to our selues, aske thy conscience what makes thee feare? |
A10933 | Excellent is that saying of the Lord to this purpose in the Chronicles: The Aethiopians and the Lubims, were they not a great people? |
A10933 | First, seeing wee thereby prouoke God against vs, for God is the auenger of such things: and what is our life, if God be against vs? |
A10933 | For a parent to lye, raile, sweare in the hearing of his children? |
A10933 | For as the Apostle saith; How can we call vpon him, in whom we beleeue not? |
A10933 | For as the Lord saith in the like case by his Prophet; O people how shall I intreate thee? |
A10933 | For as the Wise man saith; Two are better then one; if one lie alone, how should he be warme? |
A10933 | For by what right can we else claime any place in his house, otherwise then as strangers? |
A10933 | For do such as are but wormes, looke to haue the Lord at commandement? |
A10933 | For else what other thing is it, then as the common prouerbe speaketh, namely a building of castles in the ayre? |
A10933 | For else, what should be the priuiledge of a godly man in respect of other, both in life and at death? |
A10933 | For example, how duly come they to Sermons and to the Lords Supper? |
A10933 | For example, who had better successe then Haman? |
A10933 | For except they haue learned their languages, they can not speake to each other, but by an interpreter? |
A10933 | For hath not he commanded them? |
A10933 | For how would these here haue done, if Iphtah had vsed them as they did him? |
A10933 | For if the father first begin with his children, how shall his seruants looke to escape? |
A10933 | For if they desire to heare it be well, what a prophanenes is this to desire that Gods rule were crooked, so their doings be streight? |
A10933 | For if they repented at this time, why did they not bring forth fruits of amendment? |
A10933 | For if this be true in the greene tree, how much more in the withered? |
A10933 | For if we doe well, who( as Saint Peter saith) shall feare vs? |
A10933 | For is there almost any place left for amendment? |
A10933 | For oh death how vnwelcome art thou to a man that hath laid vp no better treasure then transitory? |
A10933 | For seeing they quarrelled with Iphtah, and threatned him so, what wonder if they grew to disgrace the whole familie of which he was? |
A10933 | For so the Prophet Ieremy complaineth; Doth a man fall, and not rise againe; or goe out of the way, and not returne? |
A10933 | For this the Lord was sore displeased with them, and what maruell? |
A10933 | For though none might liue happilier then they, yet who( for the most part) doe lesse looke after it? |
A10933 | For to vnderstand it disiunctiuely thus,[ It shall be the Lords, or I will offer it] what sense can it haue thus? |
A10933 | For was it not a point of courage for a woman to set vpon so valiant a Captaine, as Sisera was? |
A10933 | For wee being by the commandement of God to relieue them, what pleasure should wee take in plucking from them? |
A10933 | For what a pride was in them, and to what had it been like to haue growne, if God had let them alone, and suffered their worke to goe forward? |
A10933 | For what else,( for the most part,) is to bee learned in such seruice? |
A10933 | For what had hee done? |
A10933 | For what if a dogge had first met him? |
A10933 | For what ioy or comfort is like to that which ariseth from a good conscience? |
A10933 | For what is more irkesome, then continually, night and day, lying or going, to haue thornes pricking our flesh? |
A10933 | For what profited it then otherwise to see them? |
A10933 | For what shall all help of man be to them, if God be against them? |
A10933 | For what though at the last cast many a man renounces the old courses of vngodlines, and repents him, yea and is ashamed of his doings? |
A10933 | For what though he held her off with a lie? |
A10933 | For what though he was asleepe? |
A10933 | For what though hee told her not that which hee ought not to doe, must he therefore hate her? |
A10933 | For what though they were striken with such a feare, when they heard of the armies of their enemies? |
A10933 | For when Ahashuerosh abandoned Haman, what stead did his wife, friends, or former fauour stand him in? |
A10933 | For when it comes to particulars, what doe men? |
A10933 | For wherein standeth our happinesse, and whence haue we our chiefe cause of reioycing? |
A10933 | For which cause our Sauiour saith; Feare not him who can but destroy the body: but feare him that can cast body and soule into hell: I say feare him? |
A10933 | For who are they, that hauing sinned, they should scorne to beare the shame of it? |
A10933 | For who can so stedfastly belieue, as he ought, and hold constant therein? |
A10933 | For who doubteth, that the deare seruants of God are much heartned and helped forward thereby? |
A10933 | For who had bin liker to haue first come foorth to meete him then she? |
A10933 | For who is able to reckon vp how many waies God hath to visit, astonish, and terrifie men for their sinne? |
A10933 | For who is ignorant that such an estate can not be good? |
A10933 | For who seeth not that it is an easie matter to bee at peace with strangers, with whom a man hath no dealings, neither commeth oft in their company? |
A10933 | For who shall resist him? |
A10933 | For who will put precious liquors in a broken vessell, hauing proued it to be vn ● t for vse? |
A10933 | For who would haue thought( though by windes, wet, and drought they might haue lost their fruites) yet that they should haue been spoiled this way? |
A10933 | For why did shee so, but to serue God therein, as she was perswaded? |
A10933 | For why? |
A10933 | For why? |
A10933 | For why? |
A10933 | For why? |
A10933 | For why? |
A10933 | For why? |
A10933 | For why? |
A10933 | For why? |
A10933 | For why? |
A10933 | For why? |
A10933 | For why? |
A10933 | For why? |
A10933 | For why? |
A10933 | For why? |
A10933 | For why? |
A10933 | For( alas) what pleasure should we take in seeing euill fall vpon our brethren, when we might haue held it from them? |
A10933 | For( as I said) they haue lost their credit: they haue often falsified their oathes,( for how should a common swearer auoid common periury?) |
A10933 | Furthermore, it was well answered by Ioash, Let Baal plead for himselfe: meaning, if he can, what need you? |
A10933 | Gilead abode beyond Iordan: and why doth Dan remaine in ships? |
A10933 | God hath deliuered into your hands the Princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb: and what was I able to doe in comparison of you? |
A10933 | Haman was hanged vpon the gallowes: who readeth it not with ioy, rather then is grieued at it? |
A10933 | Hath my kindnesse been thus requited of you, that you returne me euill for my good will? |
A10933 | Haue they not gotten, and they diuide the spoile? |
A10933 | He complaineth in his time thus of the people: Wherefore do you lay out your siluer, and not for bread? |
A10933 | He considered that his seuentie brethren might be like to hinder and resist him: and therefore what did he? |
A10933 | He saith as much daily to these; and who can then pitie them, if they will not be warned? |
A10933 | He seekes to be King, and how many sinnes doth he adioyne, to the effecting of it? |
A10933 | He that loueth father or mother, more then me? |
A10933 | Herein saying with good Leui; Who is my father? |
A10933 | How base, and what a by word doth many a mans vncleannesse make him? |
A10933 | How can a man shift and vse bad courses to maintaine himselfe, and yet( in truth) say, he beleeues God will prouide? |
A10933 | How cleerely saw he his owne follie in grudging at their poore happinesse, or rather daintie miserie? |
A10933 | How did Salomons excessiuenesse in this kinde, defame all his other excellency and gifts? |
A10933 | How farre was that from the practise of our time? |
A10933 | How many and great promises had Dauid of the kingdome? |
A10933 | How many good people doth an vngodly Magistrate grieue, discourage, and make faint in good duties, and flesh the vngodly? |
A10933 | How many haue made their account all these waies that I haue mentioned, to haue their will fulfilled? |
A10933 | How much more if they themselues had sinned? |
A10933 | How much more to flee to the other aduerse partie, I meane the tents of the vngodly? |
A10933 | How shall such be brought to be conuicted, that so they may relent and amend, who can not endure to be accused? |
A10933 | How shall this bee, if the people hold off and pleade libertie to take and refuse what they please? |
A10933 | How shamefull also was it for Saul to shew such wrath and reuenge in the presence of Ionathan? |
A10933 | How should Iob haue answered it in his affliction, if hee had vsurped ouer his vnderlings, being in prosperitie? |
A10933 | How then come yee vnto me now in the time of your tribulation? |
A10933 | How truly is it said of many good parents, Their children are vngratious, as they tell Samuel to his face? |
A10933 | How vile did sinne make that traitor Iudas? |
A10933 | I meane of them that sailed with him? |
A10933 | I meane the vngodly? |
A10933 | I meane their liues vnstained, and their consciences pure and good? |
A10933 | I say, if with heart and voice wee did thus praise God, as well for them, as for those that are past, what a goodly sight were it? |
A10933 | If God be so gracious to his children when he seemeth to frowne; then how sweete and pleasant is his amiable countenance? |
A10933 | If I see the world generally disposed to coldnes, loosenes, and luke- warmnes; shall I presently repent me of my zeale and forwardnes? |
A10933 | If Pauls aduice( as ill a Pilot as he was) had been reiected to the end, what had become of them that should haue scorned to be beholding to him? |
A10933 | If a man be absent but seuen yeeres from his acquaintance, Oh, how will they say, hee is changed? |
A10933 | If bread were needfull also, what necessitie is it that both their meanings must needs be about the same particular? |
A10933 | If he spake this of man in generall, what would he haue said particularly of the cruell man? |
A10933 | If hee had meant so, what needed he to haue redeemed me at all? |
A10933 | If it be be not fit for sacrifice, it shal be the Lords: How should it be the Lords? |
A10933 | If it bee asked, why then is hee afterward so highly commended for his faith? |
A10933 | If one day spent and taken vp in a godly life bee sweet, what were many, may the whole life, if it were passed therein? |
A10933 | If that which she did, being but one person, and a woman, was to be accounted a singular fauour of God( as who can deny it?) |
A10933 | If things succeed not with him, whē he goeth about them in the best manner, that is, the latter of these two; What then? |
A10933 | If this bee the fruit of bare sloth and neglect, how much now of contempt and wilfull sinning against knowledge? |
A10933 | If this verifie not the saying,[ God resisteth the proud,] what doth? |
A10933 | If thou knowest what this meaneth, or beleeuest that which I say to thee, what wouldest thou not giue to be healed of this intolerable paine? |
A10933 | In all which are there not many difficulties, feares, and doubtings, which arise in the minds of carefull and tender Parents and gouernours? |
A10933 | In stead of this dealing wee see the beautie of truth and faithfulnes, without which, how can men liue one with another? |
A10933 | In the bringing to passe Gods promise to Ioseph in his dreame, what a long time was it before it was effected? |
A10933 | In their bondage and misery, who would haue said, that it could easily, or in short time haue been remoued? |
A10933 | In their sense, did I say? |
A10933 | In these words[ goe crie to your gods,& c.] Doth God( thinke we) bid them goe and sinne? |
A10933 | In which and all others S. Iames teacheth vs what to do: Is any man afflicted? |
A10933 | Indeed it is more noisome and furious, if it bee accompanied with enuy, therefore Salomon saith, Who can stand before enuy? |
A10933 | Indeed we say, and in words seeme to pray otherwise, as in the second and third petition; Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done: but who admitteth it? |
A10933 | Indeede hee requireth a further matter of vs, euen that wee serue him in time of affliction also: but is this likely, when wee doe it not in peace? |
A10933 | Iphtah here was prouided for: But how? |
A10933 | Iphtah then answered vnto the Elders of Gilead, Did not yee hate me, and expell me out of my fathers house? |
A10933 | Is Christ diuided: Is his body subiect to dismembring? |
A10933 | Is it because there is no Oliue in the forrest, that thou exaltest thy selfe? |
A10933 | Is it meet that we should tempt God in such a manner, and that wee should not beare the marke of it about vs in our flesh, or in our consciences? |
A10933 | Is it not so? |
A10933 | Is it not therfore the great goodnesse of God, that one deuoureth not another? |
A10933 | Is it not time then that God should make them feele that power of his in displeasure, which they will not acknowledge by teaching? |
A10933 | Is not a soule of much more value then a body is; nay then a world? |
A10933 | Is not hearing, prayer, a good action? |
A10933 | Is not her younger sister fairer then she? |
A10933 | Is not such dealing apparent dishonestie? |
A10933 | Is not the gleaning of grapes of Ephraim better then the vintage of Abiezer? |
A10933 | Is not this enough to perswade vs to make God our Factor and Aduocate to pleade for vs, and bring about our matters? |
A10933 | Is not this lamentable, when we might liue comfortably, enioying our health, peace, liberty, and welfare with Gods good liking? |
A10933 | Is not this odious? |
A10933 | Is not this the people that thou hast despised? |
A10933 | Is this the fruite of sinne, and the good that it bringeth to the committers thereof? |
A10933 | Is this to cheare( and not to grieue rather) the heart of God and good men? |
A10933 | Is this to prouide things honest before men? |
A10933 | It is hard to say, what good might be done thus? |
A10933 | It is manifest by the signe, that Gods will was to reiect them: that God would not perswade them by vs, and then( alas) how should we perswade them? |
A10933 | It is true, that both these are said to haue gone against Amalek, but what is that to this purpose? |
A10933 | It was Gods wil that the eleuen Tribes should fight against Beniamin: but were they persons for their true repentance fit for that businesse? |
A10933 | Know ye not brethren( saith Iames) that God hath called the poore of this world to be rich in faith and good works? |
A10933 | Likewise, who would haue said that well nigh the whole city of Samaria should haue been drawne to receiue Simon Magus his sorceries? |
A10933 | Look vpon Dauid, how he reuenged the indignitie which Hanun offered his seruants? |
A10933 | May we not say now, there is a truth in those words, Roll thy waies, or cast thy care vpon Iehouah, and he will giue thee thy hearts desire? |
A10933 | Mens relapses from God are dangerous and frequent, and their repentances rare and few: how scape they then? |
A10933 | Mightest thou not haue been quiet and merrie, as other of Gods seruants be, if thou haddest obeyed the Lord? |
A10933 | Moses when hee should be sent to Pharao, to carrie the people of Israel out of Egypt, how did hee complaine and disable himselfe? |
A10933 | Must it therefore needs bee with a whip of so many strings, and were there none meete to see execution done, but they that had no measure? |
A10933 | Must they not soone be forced with old Barzillai for very age to giue ouer, and to say, Can we discerne betwixt good and euill? |
A10933 | Nay rather, haue I not sent this euill, that thou mightest therein haue good proofe of my loue toward thee, in vpholding thee therein? |
A10933 | Nay what gained they not rather? |
A10933 | Nay, did hee not reuenge it in the sequell? |
A10933 | Nay, how infinitly did he gaine? |
A10933 | Nay, while they sought much, what did they not lose of that which they had, euen to their very liues themselues? |
A10933 | Nay, who can shame them as they will themselues for their sinnes? |
A10933 | No man putteth new wind into old vessels: No man punisheth a Frenchman by English law: for why? |
A10933 | No, no: these are wearisome and vnwelcome: and why so? |
A10933 | Not vnlike in this to him, that seeing himselfe and his hoste in perill by thirst, murmured, saying; What? |
A10933 | Now answere mee, haddest thou not been voide and rid of this terrour and tast of hell, if thou haddest auoided and resisted thy sinne? |
A10933 | Now if God spared not the Angels, and our first parents, who were innocent before that their fall, what may other offenders looke for? |
A10933 | Now if the best be subiect to these failings, what shall be said of the worst? |
A10933 | Now if this appeare thus often times euen heere in this world, how much more at the comming of the solemne and great day, when God shall iudge them? |
A10933 | Now in this so weighty a case what do we? |
A10933 | Now then to this common obiection, why God doth not enrich so his faithfull ones in this latter age? |
A10933 | Now therefore the Lord God of Israel hath cast out the Amorites before his people Israel, and shouldest thou possesse it? |
A10933 | Now to such as demand what they shall doe to them who vexe the godly, and rage against the Gospell? |
A10933 | Now what great prerogatiue had they by such answeres from God about that particular, more then an earthly benefit? |
A10933 | Now what makes it so difficult a thing as it is? |
A10933 | Now what shall wee say to this? |
A10933 | O Iuda, how shall I entreate thee? |
A10933 | Oh a little intermission from the paine of the stone, the anguish and extremitie of the gowre, or the like diseases, how doe wee price it? |
A10933 | Oh how doth God recompence into their bosome in full measure heaped vp and running ouer, vnto such? |
A10933 | Oh how fearefull is this? |
A10933 | Oh how many had there been before? |
A10933 | Oh how many may witnesse the same? |
A10933 | Oh how should it grieue vs to behold it? |
A10933 | Oh if it were thus in townes and places, what an heauenly order should we see in stead of boldnes, prophanenes, and loosenes in all ages and estates? |
A10933 | Oh men thinke, their children can spie nothing amisse in them, they may sin by authoritie, and shall they stand in awe of their children? |
A10933 | Oh modesty and bashfulnes, what seemly& comely ornaments are they, euen where conscience is as yet wrought by the word, but wanting? |
A10933 | Oh then how fearefull is it to be a wicked man? |
A10933 | Oh therefore how happy a thing it is to enioy such? |
A10933 | Oh what I haue obserued and seene in this which I now speake of, and that not in one or two? |
A10933 | Oh what a difference was there betweene Samson when he was himselfe; and betwixt his disguised nakednesse which his sinne caused? |
A10933 | Oh what good might be done in this time of peace, as the Churches did find in the Acts? |
A10933 | Oh what heauinesse tooke hold of him, euen from and by him who was his ioy and most deare vnto him? |
A10933 | Oh what multitudes are there of such in our age? |
A10933 | Oh what occasion doth the common sort take to recompence euill for euill? |
A10933 | Oh what proofe haue wee seene of that which I say, as former ages haue done also? |
A10933 | Oh what were wanting here, if there were faith to beleeue them? |
A10933 | Oh who shall heale thy barrennes? |
A10933 | Oh, how little thought he, or thinke we, that we shall euer commit them, before wee begin to tamper with odious and fearefull sinnes? |
A10933 | Oh, say men, In the daies of our forefathers, what plentie, what seasonable times, what happie liuing there was? |
A10933 | Or, if we still beleeue the word of God, how can we say, God will slay vs? |
A10933 | Otherwise, by what reason doth he now shake them off, and send them to their Idols, whom they had serued? |
A10933 | Our Sauiour asked Peter but once, Whom sayest thou that I am? |
A10933 | Our latter works should be better then our former: but how rare is this to be seene, no not in the better sort? |
A10933 | Peter answers; Whither shall we goe( Lord) if we forsake thee, who hast the words of eternall life? |
A10933 | Quid hoc rei est? |
A10933 | Quid hoc verbi est? |
A10933 | Serue rather the men of Hamor, the father of Shechem, for why should wee serue him? |
A10933 | So consider how deare Absolom was to his father Dauid: and when word was brought him of his death, how heauily did he take it? |
A10933 | So that if hee should looke straightly what is done amisse, who should be able to stand before him? |
A10933 | So that if the Lord our God hath cast him out, and giuen his land to vs, commest thou in who hast nothing to doe with it, against vs to possesse it? |
A10933 | So the late miscreants, I meane the powder- traytors, how boasted they of their deuice, when it was almost at the vpshot? |
A10933 | So these Ephramites, how recompenced they Gedeon for his labour and paines? |
A10933 | So to behold and view the creatures and workes of God, which all may doe, what great matter is it thought to be? |
A10933 | So wee haue learned to beleeue, and to speake, The Lord is my light and saluation, whom shall I feare? |
A10933 | So, how can any of vs in our need, doe as they did, but we must looke for the like answer from him? |
A10933 | So, who are neerer ioyned together then theeues? |
A10933 | Surely no wonder, if they regard not at all, whether it be good or bad they doe, but runne to their obiect, as the fish to the baite? |
A10933 | Th ● sending him to the campe of the Midianites so nakedly and vnfurnished, what could it promise in likelihood and outward shew, but deadly danger? |
A10933 | The Prophets and Apostles for their painfull prophesyings and trauels in preaching, what reward found they? |
A10933 | The angry man, when hath he done? |
A10933 | The contrary folly the Apostle to the Romanes taxeth; what fruite had ye of those things whereof yee are now ashamed? |
A10933 | The first, that hee would not expell these nations for them: and what then? |
A10933 | The long visitation with plague, which hath swept away many thousands, what are the most part the better for it? |
A10933 | The mother of Sisera looked out at a window, and cried through the lattesse; Why is his charet so long a comming? |
A10933 | The one asketh, who will shew vs any good? |
A10933 | The one( after his fashion) goes about it: but how? |
A10933 | The riotous, ill company keepers, and such as giue ill counsell, how many doe they spoile? |
A10933 | The same I may say of many other: For why? |
A10933 | The sunne to giue heate and light daily to cherish the creatures, what a great fauour of God is it, as common a matter as we make of it? |
A10933 | The vse of this is, to reproue them who will say: What? |
A10933 | The which, who should not be ready to beleeue, being so boldly auouched, and that by a King? |
A10933 | The whole Church is as a ship; in which if there be one Ionah, what tumult makes he? |
A10933 | Their shamefull boldnes is likewise to be marked by the words of Ioash here, saying; Will ye plead for Baal? |
A10933 | Then Gaal, the sonne of Ebed said, Who is Abimelech? |
A10933 | Then Manoah said, Now let thy saying come to passe: but how shall we order the childe and doe vnto him? |
A10933 | Then Zebul said vnto him; Where is now thy mouth that said, who is Abimelech that we should serue him? |
A10933 | Then said he to Zeba and Zalmunna, What manner of men were they whom ye slew as Tabor? |
A10933 | Then the men of Ephraim said vnto him: why hast thou serued vs thus? |
A10933 | Then the which what is more absurd? |
A10933 | Therefore Salomon speaking of such a woman, saith of her thus: Who shall finde a vertuous woman? |
A10933 | Therefore how many may we see and heare of, who are fearefully taken away from all? |
A10933 | Therefore if other men will be blind, shall I put out my owne eyes? |
A10933 | Therefore next to our communion with our Lord Iesus himselfe, what sweeter meditation haue we then of our fellowship with his bodie? |
A10933 | Therefore though anger be not euill of it selfe, yet the Lord iustly challengeth Ionah, saying, Doest thou well to be angrie? |
A10933 | Therefore what sense can there bee in it to take it so, that hee would offer it to perpetuall virginitie, if it were not fit for sacrifice? |
A10933 | Therefore what shall such doe? |
A10933 | Therfore they said one vnto another, who hath done this thing? |
A10933 | These things are commonly seene: but who beholdeth Gods iustice therein? |
A10933 | They dare not sin grossely, and so long they think all is well: but when they are about good actions, they are soone ouer- shot: and why? |
A10933 | They that made others afraid with their very countenance and looke, behold, they may bee troad vpon by the meanest, that were abused by them? |
A10933 | Thirdly, in that he setteth out himselfe, as though hee should say, who is firter for your benefit then I? |
A10933 | This I say of them: but how vnbeseeming is it, that a beleeuer should haue so much as a tang of this strong vnbeliefe in his deepe sorrowes? |
A10933 | This if it were beleeued, were able to make our liues comfortable? |
A10933 | This reason God vsed heere, and the people were conuicted thereby, and yeelded, and confessed themselues guilty: For why? |
A10933 | This she weth, that not all that doe some duties, doe them readily; but either for finister respects or by halues: as he in the Gospell? |
A10933 | This was no small matter that he offered, but marke why? |
A10933 | Thou foole, this night thy soule shall bee required of thee, then whose shall those things be, which thou hast prouided? |
A10933 | Thou wilt aske, how shalt thou know that God doth reward thee so? |
A10933 | To clothe the poore naked members of Christ, thinke we? |
A10933 | To such we may say: Is he not much beholding to you the whilest? |
A10933 | To whom a man might say, Where is now that tongue of thine, which so lustily bragged of faith? |
A10933 | To whom he said: what haue I now done, in comparison of you? |
A10933 | True it is, that the law of man stoppeth much disorder: and how could men inioy any safe and peaceable dwelling without it? |
A10933 | True; till the victorie had been gotten: and then who but themselues had foiled the Midianites? |
A10933 | Tush, saith Sheba, who is Dauid, and who is the sonne of Ishai? |
A10933 | Vpon these promisses Iphtah concludeth with an interrogation, asking them wherefore they were come to fight against him? |
A10933 | Was all their life little enough to feed and clothe their bodie, and thinke they( vpon so short a warning) to prouide for their soule? |
A10933 | Was it like they would stand debating and reasoning long with him, who came with a preiudicate and resolute minde to the contrary? |
A10933 | Was not this as a man would haue it? |
A10933 | Was there a shield or speare seene among the forty thousands of Israel? |
A10933 | We may say truly, where and when doe the wicked make an end? |
A10933 | We ought therefore to forgiue them: but what? |
A10933 | Were hee not a monster of men that should offer but the one halfe of this vnto vs, that Samson did to himselfe, as here may be seene? |
A10933 | What are we then to think, when we heare that God is angry? |
A10933 | What businesse will not the housholder lay aside on the market day? |
A10933 | What contempt was cast vpon Demas, when he had forsaken Paul? |
A10933 | What difference in this point, will ye make betwixt these and such, as to whom affliction is euer vnwelcome and intolerable? |
A10933 | What dislike and wearines hath there been one of another? |
A10933 | What doth idlenesse of minde worke, and the wandring after other loathsome lusts and desires? |
A10933 | What effectuall and sauing knowledge of God is there to be found, saue only heere and therein a few persons? |
A10933 | What excessiue and vnsatiable seeking after the worlds good is there, as in other ages? |
A10933 | What if thou be that odde person whom God will set vpon the stage? |
A10933 | What labour is there bestowed in the translating of the Scriptures and other writings, which else might haue bin spared? |
A10933 | What needed he haue feared the law( which is not made for the iust, but the transgressor) if he had holden himselfe content with his owne? |
A10933 | What needed here any shifting, any stirring, any plotting? |
A10933 | What pleasure haue men, saue in eating and drinking, and following after their delights? |
A10933 | What should I speake of particulars, which were infinite? |
A10933 | What solemne, kind, and ioyful beginnings haue many of them had? |
A10933 | What then, some( perhaps) will say, it is lawfull for vs to enioy the earthly benefits of God? |
A10933 | What then, yee will aske is to bee done; if groning vnder mens burthens of sinne and punishment haue no good effect? |
A10933 | What then? |
A10933 | What then? |
A10933 | What then? |
A10933 | What thinke we? |
A10933 | What thoughts( thinke we) are like to arise in him in such a case? |
A10933 | What was their gaine, if it be laid with their losse? |
A10933 | What was this else, but a bold presuming in great blindenesse of that which hee apprehended not, and a very derision of the prophecie? |
A10933 | What will they not promise, vpon condition of release from the present woe they are in? |
A10933 | What wonder then if this contagion and pestilence hath euer since, and still doth cause the like disorder in the places where it rangeth? |
A10933 | What would they haue done( thinke we) if they had alreadie enioyed it also? |
A10933 | What( saith he) did he thinke I would turne my face for him, or be put downe with words? |
A10933 | What? |
A10933 | What? |
A10933 | When it falleth out so,( for it falleth not out alwaies so) what a cutting of their combe is it, and a pulling downe of their proud stomacke? |
A10933 | When our Sauiour saw many offended at his doctrine, and departing away, he asked Peter in the name of the rest, Will ye also goe away? |
A10933 | When we see sweete seasons( say they) and good haruests, and all to our liking, what should we do but blesse God, and be thankfull? |
A10933 | Whence is it, that many a man of great possessions, can yet finde no sauour nor rellish in them, especially if any affliction or trouble be vpon him? |
A10933 | Where are all the great persons become, that possessed the earth not long agone, with all the glory thereof? |
A10933 | Whereas alas, how shall they spend their whole time well, who spend their best seasons badly? |
A10933 | Whereas our eye seeth not the worse, because anothers seeth better: how much lesse if in another kinde we see as well? |
A10933 | Whereas who knoweth not, that euery foole can easily runne himselfe out of breath? |
A10933 | Wherefore is the weapon ordained, but for a mans defence against his enemie? |
A10933 | Wherefore then are yee come vpon me now to fight against me? |
A10933 | Whether then of the two is more to be desired, a copper ring with a precious Iewell set in it, or a golden with a common peble? |
A10933 | Which caused Saint Paul to vtter these words: Why weepe ye thus, and rend my heart? |
A10933 | Which caused Salomon to cry out, saying: Euery man will boast of his owne goodnesse, but where shall wee find a faithfull man? |
A10933 | Who greater friends then the wicked that conspire together against goodnesse and good men? |
A10933 | Who is Abimelech said Gaal? |
A10933 | Who is so simple as to thinke otherwise, except any should imagine that the meate was like to be set before the Angell, without bread? |
A10933 | Who pitieth Herod eaten vp with wormes, because he would so proudly exceed the bounds of man ▪ and be counted a God? |
A10933 | Who pitieth these men of Succoth and Penuel? |
A10933 | Who seeth not that these were poore engins to batter walles? |
A10933 | Who then cooped them into so narrow a roome? |
A10933 | Who thinks not euery little time bestowed that way, toylesome and tedious? |
A10933 | Whose faith is so highly renouned among the worthies, in the epistle to the Hebrues? |
A10933 | Why abodest thou among the sheepfolds to heare the bleatings of the flockes? |
A10933 | Why did they not giue credit to him, who told them, as he told the rich man in the Gospell, There is no certainty of any earthly thing till tomorrow? |
A10933 | Why did they not rather obey God therefore, who charged them that they should not lay vp their felicity here below? |
A10933 | Why did ye not then recouer them in that space? |
A10933 | Why haue yee done this? |
A10933 | Why is the heart so locked vp, that it can not ioy in any commoditie? |
A10933 | Why so? |
A10933 | Why then did he destroy Baal? |
A10933 | Why was he hanged, and that vpon the gallows, that he had set vp for godly Mordecay? |
A10933 | Why, O thou sluggard, what hath bin a doing all this while? |
A10933 | Why? |
A10933 | Why? |
A10933 | Will an earthly King endure his Ambassadour to be lowred vpon, or abused thinke we? |
A10933 | Will ye know the reason? |
A10933 | Wilt thou then liue without feare euery way? |
A10933 | Wofull experience teacheth, how rare the man is who may truly say otherwise? |
A10933 | Wouldest not thou possesse that which Chemosh thy god giueth thee to possesse? |
A10933 | Yea and how doe they exceed in the other extreame oftentimes, in laying their crosses too neere their hearts, and aggrauating them beyond measure? |
A10933 | Yea, how often is it seene, that a godly Abigail is coupled with a Nabal, and Iob with a foolish woman? |
A10933 | Yes: and so it ought to make vs mourne: but how? |
A10933 | according to the words of our Sauiour, When the sonne of man commeth, shall he finde faith on the earth? |
A10933 | although who seeth not, that it is indeed but one of many, yea of infinite other, which wee receiue? |
A10933 | and also to giue this Bethlite into the hands of these spies, that they might by his helpe easily take the city? |
A10933 | and although the Philistims threatned her, did that proue that he hated her? |
A10933 | and hee who hath got a patent of restitution, or pardon for his fellonie, doth he not forfeit it by a second offence in the like kind? |
A10933 | and how delightfull are his promises and his incouragements? |
A10933 | and in comming to the word and sacraments, what need haue we of this vprightnesse? |
A10933 | and many other are wasted, and haue their estate changed, as if they had neuer inioyed it? |
A10933 | and so picking matter of quarrell out of a good turne and benefit? |
A10933 | and the one a reprobate, the other chosen? |
A10933 | and they summoned to appeare to their arraignment? |
A10933 | and to appoint him how hee shall rule the world, dispose of things, and serue their turnes? |
A10933 | and to make them their felicitie, as if God had appointed no better things to be attained and come by? |
A10933 | and to this end that he will giue them shoulders, I meane courage to beare their so great a burthen? |
A10933 | and what is stronger then a lion? |
A10933 | and why hath God giuen courage to man, but that at such a time, I meane of warre, and other necessity, it might be put to vse? |
A10933 | and yet by Mordecay( who was of no place to stand with, or to crosse him) how was his ioy quailed by him? |
A10933 | and yet what sweet meditation haue Gods seruants thereby to their comfort? |
A10933 | and yet which is more, twentie yeeres to be in this estate, how should they be able to abide it? |
A10933 | and your labour without being satisfied? |
A10933 | are they not suddenly taken( and as vnprouided) within few daies and houres of their death, as they were many yeeres before? |
A10933 | are we stronger then he? |
A10933 | as sorrow for ioy, feare in stead of godly courage and confidence, shame for credit and good report, with many such like? |
A10933 | as the Psalmist speaketh: that is, match them to the full? |
A10933 | because( while hee was aloft) he made himselfe the terrour of the Church for his crueltie? |
A10933 | but euen for such troublesome times as these here were? |
A10933 | but euen to worse then nothing? |
A10933 | but if hee touch me, shall I then curse him to his face? |
A10933 | but resolued with themselues for the time, in their feare and weakenesse, that they could not escape condemnation and vtter abiection from God? |
A10933 | by another, who is not sufficient? |
A10933 | can wee heare any more the voyce of singing men and women? |
A10933 | did he not striue with Israel, and fight against them? |
A10933 | do men gather Grapes of thornes, or figges of thistles? |
A10933 | doe they thinke by auoiding the burden of the lawfull wife and children, to escape the blot of vnlawfull libertie, euen reprochfull whoredomes? |
A10933 | doest thou thus teach in season and out of season? |
A10933 | doth God deale with him as before? |
A10933 | especially, that such a change might haue been seene? |
A10933 | euen as the Angell saith to Gedeon about conquering the Midianites, haue not I sent thee? |
A10933 | euen he that can not suffer the winde to blow vpon vs, hath sent it? |
A10933 | euen well nigh twentie yeeres: and how vnlike, and in the meane while, how many difficulties were raised and set in the way to the frustrating of it? |
A10933 | feare God then, and doe well: for if ye doe the thing that is good, who shall harme you? |
A10933 | for if Gods anger be kindled but a little, how happie are all they that feare him? |
A10933 | for if he haue a controuersie with men, and be against them, oh what terrors are euery while like to fall on them, till they be confounded of them? |
A10933 | hath the Lord brought three Kings together and their armies to destroy them? |
A10933 | haue we any taste in that we eate, or in that wee drinke? |
A10933 | how could that be? |
A10933 | how fierce is his great wrath? |
A10933 | how happy might they haue been thereby? |
A10933 | how little doth good teaching, or the diuerse examples of Gods iudgements vpon sundry others, preuaile with them? |
A10933 | how much more when the liberty is wholly interdicted? |
A10933 | how much to be accounted is that faithfulnes, which requites loue with kinde dealing? |
A10933 | how shall such a base fellow saue vs? |
A10933 | in so much as they bee iustly reproued for making them their Paradise; and that by the words of our Sauiour[ are these the things ye looke after?] |
A10933 | in wife, children, wealth, fauour? |
A10933 | is hee not the sonne of Ierubbaal, and Zebul is his officer? |
A10933 | is not the Lord gone out before thee? |
A10933 | is this thy feeding, thy watching, thy planting and watering? |
A10933 | it is as an arrow shot through the liuer? |
A10933 | may not the Lord trie his faith and patience, by so crossing him? |
A10933 | might not Adonibezek haue said as thou? |
A10933 | must wee euer be in seruing of God? |
A10933 | nay are they not worse and worse who liue in these latter daies, and haue heard or seene the iudgements of the former times? |
A10933 | nay doth not one follow anothers course to condemnation daily, and from age to age? |
A10933 | nay many a professour of good hope, though he haue repented, yet what a brand of contempt and disdaine doth hee carrie about him to his dying day? |
A10933 | nay, doth it not impeach his worthinesse? |
A10933 | nay, how greedily would many haue fastened vpon a matter of small valew, being offered them, as the kingdome here was to him? |
A10933 | nay, what madnesse is it? |
A10933 | no though it were but for an houre or a day, with the comforts belonging thereto? |
A10933 | or Sampson to so many Philistines? |
A10933 | or how many other take example by them to be any whit the wiser? |
A10933 | or if he say the word, who shall call it backe? |
A10933 | or if they shall but despise Gods prouidence toward them, as the Pharisees are said to haue done, how( thinke we) is this like to worke vpon him? |
A10933 | or is thereby flayted and feared from hauing any thing to doe with such? |
A10933 | or made wise to lay a better foundation of their amity and friendship? |
A10933 | or now to haue spoken conditionally? |
A10933 | or thinke we that we shall eschew and decline danger? |
A10933 | or through folly venter to dash our foot against the stone, which we remember hath hurt vs? |
A10933 | or to feare base and sinfull man( whose breath is in his nostrils) more then God, who can cast body and soule into hell? |
A10933 | or to feed their hungrie bellies? |
A10933 | or what example haue we thereof in Scripture? |
A10933 | or what right haue yee vnto it? |
A10933 | or what shall I doe vnto thee? |
A10933 | or who by such examples can teach others wisedome, till they haue brought it and paid for it dearely themselues? |
A10933 | or who can so denounce and pleade against them as themselues? |
A10933 | or whom doth he make members of his Church, but them and those to be dearest vnto him, who are not counted meete to liue on the earth? |
A10933 | or will yee saue him? |
A10933 | saying, where shall we find a man like this man fitted for this worke? |
A10933 | seeing it is manifest, that the malitious Iewes resisted, and came against him in all places: but who might withstand God, when he would haue it so? |
A10933 | shall I receiue good things from Gods hand and not euill? |
A10933 | shall I serue him for aduantage? |
A10933 | shall not two be in the field, or at the mill, and yet the one receiued, the other forsaken? |
A10933 | shall we aduise them to shake off their feares, and plucke vp their hearts against them? |
A10933 | shall we now thinke God will kill vs? |
A10933 | such I meane, as among whom one may dwell peaceable, and without feare, and in whose faithfulnesse a man may rest? |
A10933 | that he may vse that season to furnish himselfe for the whole weeke with prouision? |
A10933 | that so we may see wee haue the same need to bee strongly vpholden, and soundly encouraged, as they were? |
A10933 | the Lord is the strength of my life, of whom shall I be afraid? |
A10933 | they say by offering it to perpetuall virginitie, if it be fit thereto, for so some vnderstand it, as I haue said before? |
A10933 | this wound and sting which taketh away all delight from thee, so that for deliuerance out of it, thou wouldest giue all that thou hast? |
A10933 | though a little while it were deferred? |
A10933 | to bring a greater feare vpon them at the last then at the first? |
A10933 | to relieue either poore students in the Vniuersitie, or Christian poore and distressed ones in the countrey, or any other good way? |
A10933 | to set light by it, as the most do; when yet we heare that he is not led by passions? |
A10933 | verily euen this, that God said to him, goe, for haue not I commanded thee? |
A10933 | was any iot of Gods word made voide, so that it came not to passe? |
A10933 | was he not so terrified for it, that he fled from Gods presence as farre as he could, to hide himselfe in the thicket among the trees? |
A10933 | was not that speech of the Lord full of discomfort at the hearing of it? |
A10933 | was that( as it ought to haue been) thought vpon? |
A10933 | were they not after strangled, or rather haltered with that they had done? |
A10933 | what a death it is to a sloathfull person to be vrged to the duty that he hath cast off, and hath now no pleasure in, nor ability vnto? |
A10933 | what a furtherance to godlinesse? |
A10933 | what bold prophaning of the Lords Sabbaths, when yet he hath plainely charged vs the contrary, saying: Remember yee keepe them holy? |
A10933 | what come they to? |
A10933 | what confusion was there in this, that the Leuite thus trauailed to seeke liuing and worke? |
A10933 | what doth the punishment of the Canaanites concerne these? |
A10933 | what haue wee receiued more then others? |
A10933 | what is this that thou hast done to vs? |
A10933 | what shifts were they faine to make to preserue their liues, and saue their goods out of their enemies hands? |
A10933 | what spoile of men and goods is there? |
A10933 | what thinke we? |
A10933 | what, will hee beare downe all, and thinke to haue vs tyed to his girdle? |
A10933 | when yet in his anger he is compared to a Lion, who seeketh his prey? |
A10933 | where all sound reioycing is without end or measure? |
A10933 | where is thy sweetnesse? |
A10933 | whereas God alloweth them to liue, and bee well maintained by their labour? |
A10933 | whereas Saul came to his kingdome easily& without trouble? |
A10933 | whereby the longer they are free, the weaker they are to suffer? |
A10933 | whereunto he hath granted such singular priuiledges, and which hee hath beautified with so many admirable gifts and graces? |
A10933 | which is a fauning creature, and had been like enough to haue first come foorth to meete him? |
A10933 | who beates his braines to attaine to a gift, readinesse and dexteritie therein? |
A10933 | who looks to this, to liue so in the former part of his life, that he may be a president in the latter? |
A10933 | who neither hast oyle of vnderstanding, nor oyle of grace( much lesse thy vessell full thereof) that of thy abundance others may be refreshed? |
A10933 | who yet doe scorne the fansies and dreames of the other, who haue naught? |
A10933 | whose sinnes are as the haires of our head in number? |
A10933 | why? |
A10933 | will the Merchant game, play, drinke, sleepe, or trifle out the season of his merchandise, when hee is come to the place of trafficke beyond sea? |
A10933 | ye will( perhaps) say, shall he not be glad of, nor delight in them till he doe forgoe them, and till an end of them come? |
A10933 | yea and for all their zeale they wanting the principall; to wit, faith; that God would bee with them, did they not goe to worke amisse? |
A10933 | yea and that much more feruently then other men? |
A10933 | yea rather why did we not rather keep thē out at the first, so that they might haue had no such power ouer vs? |
A10933 | yea to tie our owne hands behind vs, from putting them forth vnlawfully in our owne defence? |
A10933 | yea, what hauocke of all things? |
A10933 | yes while it lasteth; in his kind, but how long is that? |
A10933 | yes: for why? |
A30572 | ( and spoke with Majesty and authority) doe not so reason the case about these Articles of our Faith, but do you believe? |
A30572 | ( for indeed it needeth opening) that there can be no new institution, nor no new Law made in this sense, but all must hold of Christ? |
A30572 | ( saith the text) what is man? |
A30572 | ( say they) how shall this man save us? |
A30572 | ( the place we made use of in opening the former point) that there were some blamed for not holding of the Head; What is that? |

A30572 | Am I not able to promote thee to honour? |
A30572 | An humble spirit would reason thus; but only? |
A30572 | And I( saith Tamer when Amnon defiled her) whether shall I cause my shame to go? |
A30572 | And hath it not been so amongst us? |
A30572 | And if they were not, but the exasperation would arise new, what is the exasperation of vile men, to the abiding of the wrath of God upon us? |
A30572 | And is it not fulfilled this day? |
A30572 | And now we doe desire peace, but to what end? |
A30572 | And shal the members of this head be trampled upon by the Devil? |
A30572 | And though thou beest very weake in regard of parts, and thinkest with thy self, How can I understand such things as these? |

A30572 | And what was it? |
A30572 | And what was this beginning? |
A30572 | And who doth she sit upon? |
A30572 | And why shouldst not thou tender thy brethren so, as to prevent all scandall that may come by the use of such things? |
A30572 | And would you not have God strip you of your ornaments? |
A30572 | And yet further, if you thinke that you had better times heretofore then now, what times will you refer your selves unto in making the comparison? |
A30572 | And you that are men of estates, if you aske what you should doe? |

A30572 | As if he should say, what doe you come now? |
A30572 | As if hee should say, It is a strange impudence in men, what, will they not say in their hearts, Let us feare God, seeing he gives us raine? |
A30572 | As it was once among the Athenians, Themistocles saith of his son, a bol ● youth, This boy can do more then any man in all Greece, Why? |
A30572 | As the Prodigall, what shift did he make? |
A30572 | As the Prodigall, when hee was feeding upon the husks, he began to bethink himselfe; What, is not there food enough in my Fathers house? |
A30572 | As thus, doth God chuse us to be his people? |
A30572 | BUt how betroth? |
A30572 | Be not wroth very sore O Lord; neither remember iniquity for ever: upon what ground? |
A30572 | Behold( saith God) I will proceed to doe a marvailous worke, even a marvailous work and a wonder: What is it? |

A30572 | But how will you know that? |
A30572 | But how with the stones of the field? |
A30572 | But how? |
A30572 | But if a man be wicked, and understands not the things of the Church, how can he be a judge? |
A30572 | But is God able? |
A30572 | But it may be said, Will not this argue self- conceit? |
A30572 | But it may be said, who shall be Judge whether things be tending to the publicke good yea or no? |
A30572 | But may not security promise continuance of mercy? |
A30572 | But may they not be so burthensome to Christ as that he may shake off his burthen? |
A30572 | But now other men they have more liberty, they indeed quarrel not one with another, why? |
A30572 | But rather thus, I lift up mine eyes to the hils, that is, I look to God, why? |
A30572 | But shall I end thus? |
A30572 | But suppose that Iulius Caesar had given him the dagger with which he stabbed him, then O thou my sonne, what stab me with that dagger I gave thee? |
A30572 | But the latter dayes, when are these? |
A30572 | But then you will say, When commeth it to an Institution? |

A30572 | But where is this promise? |
A30572 | But wherefore is all this that God wil have no more mercy upon the house of Israel? |
A30572 | But why did God appoint this feast of the new moone? |
A30572 | But why do I make such a disjunction? |
A30572 | But why is God called the living God in reference to his Church here? |
A30572 | But why is it The house of Jehu, without any addition of Jehu the King as in others it is usual? |

A30572 | Can Caesar a Heathen be a competent Judge in matters of Religion? |
A30572 | Can a lust put thee into a better condition then Christ, who hath all fulnesse to satisfie the soul of God himself? |
A30572 | Can any comfort, any profit that you have in ways of sinne countervaile this great loss? |
A30572 | Can you shew us any place wherein God did slay his people, yet shew mercie to them? |
A30572 | Can you thinke to dwell safely so long as so many evil beasts are in the land,& so exasperated in the highest of all their rage? |
A30572 | Canst thou look upon God in his dishonour, and his cause trampled under foot, and do not thy bowels yern toward him? |
A30572 | Certainly that which must make any man acceptable, it is not so much that there is somewhat done, but is there that which God calleth for done? |

A30572 | So in a nation, doth God grant to a nation any new mercy? |
A30572 | So in all the persecutions of the Church, doth not Christ suffer, in that the great work of Reformation doth not go on? |

A89411 | Again, Are your Graces lively? |
A89411 | Again, Shall you change for you know not what? |
A89411 | Ah Brethren, are we not guilty in this kind? |
A89411 | Ah Brethren, the shining of Jesus Christ, on some poor sinners, what doth it but raise steams of lust within? |
A89411 | Ah brethren, how will you lift up your faces before the Lord then, who searcheth the hearts? |
A89411 | Ah but you will say, I have no such appetite to the Feast, to hunger and thirst, and is there any invited to come to it, but such as have an appetite? |
A89411 | Ah dear friends, had not this truth need to be prest upon you? |
A89411 | Ah dear friends, if Jesus Christ should now come, would he not find many of us thus doing? |
A89411 | Ah dear friends, if the Lord would but single out any one of us, and tell us we are the men, what agonies would it put us into? |
A89411 | Ah dear friends, it may be some of us can tell the time when for fear of men we have sadly miscarried, is it better with us now? |

A89411 | Ah, vve little knovv hovv close it sticks to us, and hovv indiscernably it insinuates it self upon us? |
A89411 | Alas all will not raise lazy sinners, we may cry our hearts out, but who believeth our report? |
A89411 | Alas brethren, how soon will the world, and cares of it overcharge you? |
A89411 | Alas brethren, we are withering every moment; if we have not waterings every moment, what would become of us now? |
A89411 | Alas you will say, how shall we know we have this oyl of grace in our hearts? |
A89411 | Alas you will say, what should we do to keep our selves from this sleeping ▪ since it is so dangerous? |
A89411 | Alas, I know not whether I am or no: if not, what then meaneth all thy stuffing thy bed with groans? |
A89411 | Alas, brethren what pitiful mistakes are these? |
A89411 | Alas, but I am the most vile unworthy wretch in the world, O you know not what I am; alas, is it for such an one as I to believe? |
A89411 | Alas, do we not all do so? |
A89411 | Alas, do we not see in our days, what fearful work Satan hath made among Professors? |
A89411 | Alas, hovv many of us have surfeited of the vvorld and the comforts thereo ●? |
A89411 | Alas, how far short are we in this? |
A89411 | Alas, how soon can he dispel them, consume them with the brightness of his glorious appearance? |
A89411 | Alas, how soon is the sweetest frame lost? |
A89411 | Alas, what is this to that fearful sentence, I know you not: If Christ disown us, what is it if all the Saints should own us? |
A89411 | Am I an enemy to thee? |
A89411 | And Hezekiah his pride in the business of the King of Babylon, how it tended to humble him so much the more; do we find it thus? |
A89411 | And can it be but you should reflect now, and enquire of the Lord, and of your own hearts? |
A89411 | And did not Joash reform much in Jehoiadah ● time? |
A89411 | And do they now bethink themselves of going to Christ? |
A89411 | And do you suspect your selves to be hypocrites? |
A89411 | And for the children of Believers; how can they come to this pitch, you will say, how can they grow ● o such a height of growth? |
A89411 | And if they will say they may be saved, can it be without the invisible grace? |
A89411 | And if we can or do love the Saints in whom the Image of Jesus Christ is, alas may we not do it more fervently then we do? |
A89411 | And is he not the same yesterday, to day, and for ever? |
A89411 | And is it not better I should perish by corruption or temptation in doing the work of Christ then not? |
A89411 | And so Sodom, when the Sun arose upon it, what fairer ground of hope? |
A89411 | And so for desire, have you thus desires toward the Lord and his waies? |
A89411 | And so for other things: alas, is there a day that goeth over our heads, but there is use for Faith? |
A89411 | And so it will be uppermost, what it is that lies highest in thy soul, which thou liftest up, Is it this? |
A89411 | And the young man in the Gospel, had he not good desires? |
A89411 | And then for Jesus Christ dost thou close with him? |
A89411 | And then, is it not the more admirable, is not Christ more to be admired? |
A89411 | And therefore our Saviour deals plainly with men? |
A89411 | And therefore we neglect our duty, and so for any other; now alas, how often are we guilty in this kind? |
A89411 | And this question should come thick upon the heart of that Church there, which was the Candlestick in which God placed this light; why was it so? |
A89411 | And truly for us in this Land, how long have we had the Sun of righteousness risen on us? |
A89411 | And what is that? |
A89411 | And whence doth this appear brethren? |
A89411 | And you that are souldiers, and have been in this Condition, hath it been comfortable to you when you have been so beaten up? |
A89411 | Are not others safely landed, who were assaulted with the like opposition, and therefore why should you despond? |
A89411 | Are there not many souls in the presence of God, that can set to their seals that this is a truth in Iesus? |
A89411 | Are they not blessed souls that shall enter, that now all their distances between them and Jesus Christ shall be done away? |
A89411 | Are you upon your beds still? |
A89411 | Art thou enabled so much as to bud, to think a good thought? |
A89411 | Art thou in good earnest in this business? |
A89411 | As Hazael, Is thy servant a dog? |
A89411 | As Lot in his sleep, what would he not do? |
A89411 | As for Adultery, or whoring, though men be not guilty of the outward act, is there not heart- adultery? |
A89411 | As that of their faith, how low may they grow in faith? |
A89411 | As the Lord Jesus is willing to have thee, art thou willing poor trembling soul to have him? |
A89411 | Be of good chear man, remember this, hath he not promised it, that he will arise upon them that fear the Lord with healing in his wings? |
A89411 | Be sure you choose not his graces, or any thing but himself primarily, many would have him, but what is it they mind or eye? |
A89411 | Beside, who can pardon our sins? |
A89411 | Besides, is not thy life as uncertain as anothers? |
A89411 | Besides, may not the Lord Jesus say to us all, I have somewhat against you all, in that you have left your first love? |
A89411 | Brethren, how do benummed limbs that have no feeling nor strength, gather strength, but by rubbing, and chasing, and exercising of them? |
A89411 | Brethren, if so glorious a building as the temple of God be intended, will every rough stone, a rough- hewn- Christian be fit to lay in that building? |
A89411 | Brethren, search and try, are we come to this pitch, or how far are we gone herein? |
A89411 | Brethren, what do you mean? |
A89411 | Brethren, what is it the better to have the hand and the foot out of the snare, and the heart be intangled? |
A89411 | Brethren, who would do so? |
A89411 | Brethren? |
A89411 | But alas, you will say, how can we do this? |
A89411 | But alas, you will say, is this in our power to help one another to grow? |
A89411 | But beside this, dost thou find thy heart moved, made willing indeed to part with sin? |
A89411 | But can any perish that in truth give up themselves to his work? |
A89411 | But consider, how many sweet experiences hast thou had of his love? |
A89411 | But did this son of impudence( who dares thus affront Gods Minister) thus escape? |
A89411 | But first thèn, for that of sin and our lusts, hath thè Lord broken the yoak of them, set thee free when thou didst groan under it? |
A89411 | But how and when doth the Lord discover hypocrites to themselves? |
A89411 | But how shall we know then, whether our trouble for sin be right or no, or whether we be hypocritical therein? |
A89411 | But how then? |
A89411 | But if this be but a marriage feast for Christ and the Bride, What are those Guests then that are invited to it? |
A89411 | But if thou canst not be admitted to the pipe, Is it not a comfort that thou shalt be admitted to the fountain, to the sea? |
A89411 | But new for the oyl in the vessels, what is that? |
A89411 | But now for the wings of the Lord Jesus, what are his wings as he is the Sun of righteousness? |
A89411 | But secondly, what is meant by the Sun of righteousness? |
A89411 | But suppose that thou dost not grow in these so much, how is thy understanding? |
A89411 | But the second is the main thing, how far we are said to be freed from the Law of God, and how we are not freed from it? |
A89411 | But then, What this Cry is, that is here spoken of, will be the subject of a further enquiry? |
A89411 | But this is not all: Secondly, Because the growth of others doth much depend- upon our growth: are they not as the bones to the body? |
A89411 | But what is all this Brethren to what our blessed Saviour hath taken down for us? |
A89411 | But what might be the occasion of so sad a desertion? |
A89411 | But what then do the Ministers do? |
A89411 | But what then, doth the Lord Jesus hold us to himself whether we will or no? |
A89411 | But wherein is Christ said to be a Sun? |
A89411 | But who may say to God, what dost thou? |
A89411 | But why doth the Lord then discover Hypocrites before the day of the discovery of all things? |
A89411 | But will the Lord contend for ever, will he be alwaies wroth? |
A89411 | But you will ask me here, What it is to trim these Lamps that is here required? |
A89411 | But you will ask me, what should we do to trim up these Lamps of ours? |
A89411 | Can Belshazzar read his sentence on the wall, the hand- writing, but with terrour, his knees knocking one against another? |

A89411 | Can a poor condemned Prisoner look on the Iudge, think on the Tree on which he must be hanged, on the fire but with fear and trembling? |
A89411 | Can a slave bring forth any other then a slave? |
A89411 | Can the Children of the Bride- chamber mourn while the bridegroom is with them saith our Saviour? |
A89411 | Can we not many of us set our seals to this truth? |
A89411 | Can we sufficiently wonder that the earth should be founded upon nothing but onely his word of command? |
A89411 | Can you with comfort go forth to meet Jesus Christ, open to him when he knocks? |
A89411 | Canst thou say, Whom have I in heaven but thee,& c? |
A89411 | Come to me all that are weary and heavy- laden, and I will give you rest: what then? |
A89411 | Consider then, Is it thus with thee? |
A89411 | Consider then, have we not declined? |
A89411 | Consider, wast thou thankful for what thou hadst? |
A89411 | Could Satan think you ever have brought Lot to that wickedness, if he had not been fast, in a deep sleep? |
A89411 | David was loth to be the Kings Son in- Law; Seemeth it to you a light thing, to be 〈 ◊ 〉 Son in- Law to a King? |
A89411 | Dear Lord Jesus, how many of us loyter, and take up our rest short of thee? |
A89411 | Dear friends, Consider seriously now, You think you follow Jesus Christ, and your Lamps are burning? |
A89411 | Dear friends, could this be, think you, without her heart dwelt upon this consideration? |
A89411 | Did Judas suspect himself? |
A89411 | Did it amaze the Lord Jesus? |
A89411 | Did not Judas act as well as the rest, following Christ up and down, going forth to preach the Gospel as well as the rest? |
A89411 | Do not men upon a worldly score take abundance of pains in casting up their accounts? |
A89411 | Do poor sinners eat, and drink judgement to themselves, if they come without grace to the Supper? |
A89411 | Do we do our work Brethren? |
A89411 | Do we know how soon the Bridegroom will come? |
A89411 | Do we not know men after the flesh? |
A89411 | Do you believe this, that you are lyable as well as others to sleep? |
A89411 | Do you think this can be comfortable to you? |
A89411 | Dogs also, who are they, but such barking, biting, foul- mouth''d, false Teachers? |
A89411 | Doth he not see the designs of Satan and Antichrist, and all their fetches and slights to wind in themselves at the back door? |
A89411 | Doubtless we have occasions before us every where; do we not know many lazy, sleepy Christians? |
A89411 | Drawing near his end, his sister said to him, Are you in charity with all the Lords people, though differing from you? |
A89411 | Eighthly, If thou grow not in bigness, dost thou grow in sweetness? |
A89411 | Eighthly, Wicked men grow worse and worse, and why should not we grow better and better? |
A89411 | Eleventhly, What enemies are they then to Jesus Christ and to Mankind, that would pluck the Sun out of the Firmament? |
A89411 | FAllor? |
A89411 | Fifthly, From the warming of the Sun; how cold and frozen are those Northern parts of the world, because remote from the Sun? |
A89411 | Fifthly, because of the unconstancy of our hearts, if we be a little affected with a truth at one time, how long doth such a frame continue upon us? |
A89411 | First Use then will be to reprove us all of this folly as many as are guilty; how many poor graceless souls hear this Word this day? |
A89411 | First then Brethren, If a man may go so far and yet fall short, What will become of them that never set foot forward toward heaven to this day? |
A89411 | First then, What is meant by them that fear the Lord? |
A89411 | First then, What is meant by this unreadiness? |
A89411 | First then, hereby God hath the more service: Alas, what service hath a Father or Mother from a little child when it hangs upon the breast? |
A89411 | First, Dost thou find that hereby thou never gettest thy heart in a better frame? |
A89411 | First, The Marriage here, what is meant by that? |
A89411 | First, the Lord he is able to break all the bonds: if he will deliver Peter out of prison, what shall hinder? |
A89411 | For Helps, that will be the next enquiry what we should do to grow in Grace; since it is so necessary a work lying upon us all? |
A89411 | For the Application then of this Doctrine: How sad is their condition, if a man reach to all this, and yet fall short of heaven? |
A89411 | For the opening of it, What is meant by the unreadiness here supposed? |
A89411 | Fourthly, How much honour hath God by a circumspect conversation? |
A89411 | Fourthly, Then others are unready; And who are those? |
A89411 | Go from the head to the heart, and see, is there not a stone there? |
A89411 | God hath given some charge of souls, how little have they done in it? |
A89411 | Had not the poor Woman in the Gospel spent all upon the Physitians, before she came to Christ? |
A89411 | Haply something of this nature kept off the Prodigal: Is it not more shame to do sin, then to acknowledge it when it is done? |
A89411 | Haply, he is confident of himself, as in the place of Job; and who almost are men of more flourishing hopes then the hypocrites? |
A89411 | Hast thou been a Prodigal, and hast thou known this by experience? |
A89411 | Hast thou ever been upon serious examination, and dost thou make God thine end, thy happiness? |
A89411 | Hath he not stretched out his hands all the day long? |
A89411 | Have we not received much mixture of error in these erting times? |
A89411 | Have you done any thing to your further sitting for heaven? |
A89411 | He is in one mind, and who can turn him? |
A89411 | Heaven is the inheritance of the Saints in light, and is he fit for it that is even going out in darkness? |
A89411 | Here we might discuss the question, how far we are delivered from the Law, and how far by Jesus Christ? |
A89411 | His children being brought, he said to his eldest, Will Hester be a good child and serve the Lord? |
A89411 | How can they believe in him of whom they have not heard? |
A89411 | How come souls trow to be at such a low and cheap rate, that the safety and welfare of the Body should be preferred before them? |
A89411 | How comes it to pass that your Churches, your Families, your hearts are so choakt with tares and weeds? |
A89411 | How cometh this to pass? |
A89411 | How did he go up and down on foot until he was weary? |
A89411 | How did he thirst after the salvation of souls, and how anxiously inquisitive after the success of his labours? |
A89411 | How did the Talent increase but with the using? |
A89411 | How difficult is it to beat a man off his creature- confidence and refuges which he hath for his soul? |
A89411 | How distempered in hearing publikely, and in conferences with the Church? |
A89411 | How do the Birds each morning chant and chirp, when their little spirits are revived by the Sun rising on them? |
A89411 | How easie should this make, and how should it sweeten the severest of Gods dealings with us, to awake us? |
A89411 | How empty and vain in discourses, and unprofitable? |
A89411 | How glorious is an Angel, that the very sight of him was an astonishment to John? |
A89411 | How hang these things together? |
A89411 | How knowest thou, thou sleepest? |
A89411 | How many have been awaked by this awakening word, the terrors of the Lord against them that sleep? |
A89411 | How many of us have a dead palsie, past feeling, commit all uncleanness with greediness? |
A89411 | How many such opportunities doth the Lord put into our hands, and we have no heart to them? |
A89411 | How may we know whether that be right or no? |
A89411 | How much better are the wholsome severities of Religion, then the fulsome satisfactions of the flesh? |
A89411 | How much more have Sinners to do? |
A89411 | How often are the labouring bees assaulted with a tempest whilest abroad, and bringing home provisions against the ensuing winter? |
A89411 | How often do dashing showers fall upon mellifluous Hives, and the fairest flowers that grow in Gods Garden? |
A89411 | How often doth our Saviour rebuke his Disciples for the littleness of their Faith? |
A89411 | How seldom are dying men new- born? |
A89411 | How terrible is a sudden storm upon the poor Mariners? |
A89411 | How uncertain this coming of Christ to you, to call for you, is? |
A89411 | How uncomfortable for us? |
A89411 | How will this( Brethren) darken the beauty and glory of all things here? |
A89411 | How will you lift up your faces before him? |
A89411 | How wonderfully doth sin unbefit us for duty? |
A89411 | I I can not say with the Church, I sleep but my heart waketh; O what shall I say, or what shall I do? |
A89411 | I am of Paul, and I am of Apollo, and I am of Cephas, and I am of Christ; are you not carnal? |
A89411 | I am sure your condition is sad, that a growing sensible Christian would not be in your case for a world; and are you not sensible of it? |
A89411 | I believe you must needs then sometimes have a terrible apprehension of wrath approaching, why will you not search? |
A89411 | I do not believe but many of us are convinced, and what shift can we make to smother our convictions? |
A89411 | I do well to be angry, yea even to the death: what could Gain almost have said worse then he did, in this fit? |
A89411 | I have been( as it were) checkt, What, wilt thou not venture thy self upon Jesus Christ? |
A89411 | I have spoken both, but will you remember this as a duty? |
A89411 | I hope it is so with some of us; Are we not then sensible? |
A89411 | I may not descend to particulars: but do not your hearts smite you for looseness of spirit towards God? |
A89411 | I think we may all of us, or the most of us, plead guilty here; have we our times, Brethren, we set apart for this work of self- searching and tryal? |
A89411 | I will but add one word more, and that is this; It is no indifferent thing, whether you close with this invitation or no? |
A89411 | I, but what was there laid up for eternity? |
A89411 | If Balaam dye his own death, and not the death of the righteous, what a miserable creature will he be? |
A89411 | If Sampson had not rested upon his own strength, would he when he had so many warnings, have committed himself again, to the Lap of his Dalilah? |
A89411 | If a man should have made a judgment of David in his backsliding; what would he have thought of him? |
A89411 | If a tree be out down, is there any hope it should grow up again, in that of Job? |
A89411 | If death had come upon poor David, while under that guilt in the matter of Vriah, and in so deep a sleep, how sad had his condition been? |
A89411 | If ever Peter were solicited to deny Jesus Christ again, do you think that the remembrance of this, O how dear it cost me, was not an awe upon him? |
A89411 | If he spared not the Angels in their pride, will he spare thee? |
A89411 | If his grace be sufficient for thee in all conditions, what matter is it? |
A89411 | If it be thus, that such as upon whom the Lord Jesus is arisen, they are in such a growing condition, then what shall I think of my self? |
A89411 | If such as take all this pains for heaven fall short, what is like to befall them that never set foot forward towards it? |
A89411 | If the Law was so terrible in the giving, what will it be in the execution? |
A89411 | If the Lord had not kept the Vineyard, better then men have done, what had become of it? |
A89411 | If the Moon be so glorious, what is the Sun? |
A89411 | If the oyl in the vessel could fail, then the Light in the Lamp might fail, but it fa ● ls not; and why? |
A89411 | If there were a great outward reward, how would it then prevail with me? |
A89411 | If they have occasion to use all, and little enough sometimes: What will become of me, who have so little, like a grain of Mustard- seed? |
A89411 | If this be a truth, that they that have most grace, have none to spare; what a condition then are such as I in, who have so little? |
A89411 | If we shall not in any wise be cast out of Christ, what need so much ado? |
A89411 | If you have such affections, do you not, many of you, wallow in your filthyness? |
A89411 | If you should see a Virgin espoused to a man, and should from that day forwad never hold up her head, but walk heavily, what would you think? |
A89411 | If you would have riches, you shall have all things with Christ, how shall he not with him give us all things? |
A89411 | In Christ thou hast all the Promises, Yea and Amen; now how many such promises are there? |
A89411 | In one word for all, to stop the mouths of these clamours, the Lord Jesus hath said it, and will he not be as good as his word? |
A89411 | Indeed I doubt brethren, these times of prosperity to the Church, bury more Christians alive, then any days that ever we saw: why now, are we ready? |
A89411 | Instance, What may be the cause of my streightness and deadness now? |
A89411 | Is it not midnight with some of us? |
A89411 | Is it not sin that turns away the face of God? |
A89411 | Is it not the same spirit surely that works so mightily among us, whereby men would commend any thing for its novelty? |
A89411 | Is it thus with us brethren? |
A89411 | Is not all this unkindness? |
A89411 | Is not this a blessed Condition? |
A89411 | Is not this an unspeakable freedom to have all the guilt of our sins that ever we commtited taken away? |
A89411 | Is not this cause of great love to him? |
A89411 | Is not this folly, to shoot so high and aim so low? |
A89411 | Is not this the way to grow fat, to increase? |
A89411 | Is there any sin higher then the imbrewing their hands in the blood of Jesus Christ himself? |
A89411 | Is there not corruption of Judgement? |
A89411 | Is this Naomi? |
A89411 | Is this nothing? |
A89411 | Is this the top of all, that we might be found in him? |
A89411 | Is this 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, to walk uprightly, exactly? |
A89411 | It grieved Peter when Christ came over so often with it, Lovest thou me? |
A89411 | It is God that maketh it to grow( Brethren) and he is free, and rich in his influences; and what if he make it not to grow for a time? |
A89411 | It is sad brethren, to consider what a frame the hearts of Gods own people will be in sometimes; and what guil there is? |
A89411 | It is so much here, that the Apostle admireth it, behold what manner of love is this, that we, poor worms, should be called the sons of God? |
A89411 | It is the work of your whole lives, and why may it not be the work of our whole lives? |
A89411 | It is true, but yet consider brethren, wherefore do we love Him, but because he loved us? |
A89411 | It is true, we have the name of Christ upon us, but what have we else? |
A89411 | It is worth the noting, that all the Disciples were more forward to doubt their conditions then Judas, for they all asked, Is it I Lord, is it I? |
A89411 | It may be thou dost not find, poor sinner, such a strong desire, such a breaking of soul for longing; but hast thou a Will? |
A89411 | It may be you have some knowledge, yet alas, where is your affection? |
A89411 | Know we not the pleadings of many at the last day, Have we not preached in thy name, and in thy name cast out Devils? |
A89411 | Knowest thou not O drowsie drone, that thou hast a great deal of work to do, and but a little time to dispatch it in? |
A89411 | Lord, am I ready for this coming of Jesus Christ, or am I not? |
A89411 | Lovest thou me? |
A89411 | Master Murcot: Tell me true, how is my Pulse? |
A89411 | May not every mans heart Seal to this, that the Love of his Espousals to the Lord Jesus, the love of our youth, those springing affections are gone? |
A89411 | Ninthly, A freedom or liberty from the Govenant of works; What saith the Law? |
A89411 | Ninthly, The Lord Jesus may be compared to the Sun, for that the Sun Giant- like rejoyceth to run his race, and who can turn him back? |
A89411 | No: O they run up and down as men in a trembling frame, O what shall we do? |
A89411 | Now Brethren, consider this, have not some of us had seven devils, have there not been seven abominations in our hearts? |
A89411 | Now Brethren, is our zeal and fire more pure, coming down from heaven, even from the Spirit of Jesus Christ, warming our hearts? |
A89411 | Now at the last, when they must come to close with him or never, he should be hidden from their eyes: Is not this a righteous, a severe hand? |
A89411 | Now dear friends, what have you been doing all this while, have you eat and drank in the presence of Christ? |
A89411 | Now how can we judge of this, except we have had a little taste of it our selves? |
A89411 | Now if Christ had not come according to the promise, where had been the truth of God his righteousness? |
A89411 | Now is not this a sad condition, to be under such a hus 〈 … 〉 d as this; and yet how many of us are in this case, and contented so to be? |
A89411 | Now may I not say with the Apostle, you did many of you run well: but who hindred you? |
A89411 | Now saith he, when he was angry with him, Is not Aaron thy Brother? |
A89411 | Now was this a right means, to go to the creature, to the wise Virgins for oyl? |
A89411 | Now whither should we go with empty vessels, but to the fountain? |
A89411 | Now( say his Disciples) speakest thou plainly, and speakest no Parables? |
A89411 | O Brethren, have you not experience of it? |
A89411 | O arise, arise, will such sleepy souls be fit to sing Allelujahs to eternity to God? |
A89411 | O be diligent in improving all the Ordinances for that end, received ye the Spirit by the works of the the Law, or by the hearing of Faith? |
A89411 | O brethren then, where a heart is altogether in sin, what an enemy is it to Grace, and to Christ, as the Author of Grace? |
A89411 | O brethren, Is not this fa ● that an hypocrite may go? |
A89411 | O but some will say, what a Doctrine is this? |
A89411 | O but the Law it works wrath, and works death, and can this then be good? |
A89411 | O but you would say, Alas, what should we do in this case? |
A89411 | O dear friends, how often hath he shaken the rod over thee, and yet hath spared, and canst thou not love him? |
A89411 | O how can we work for Christ, do the works of our conditions? |
A89411 | O how doth Corruption grow upon us as pride, and passion, and Earthliness, and what is the reason? |
A89411 | O how doth he watch such an opportunity to water his plants in our hearts when we are asleep? |
A89411 | O how heavenly and sweet do the Saints generally grow before the Lord takes them? |
A89411 | O how our hearts do hang back? |
A89411 | O how shall we not be able to do any thing against sin for Christ? |
A89411 | O how unfit are we for death, though we have one foot in the grave already some of us, and we do not heed this? |
A89411 | O how will this clear the eyes of an Eagle indeed, one that is gloriously born of heaven, though Owls are blinded by it? |
A89411 | O how would poor Creeples set the best foot forward to come to him, and such as had diseased creatures, Lame, Blind, Palsie? |
A89411 | O if there were but more love in Ministers to people, how would they do more then they do? |
A89411 | O if we could but have our eye ever up to the Lord upon all occasions, as the Psalmist speaks, how circumspect would it make us? |
A89411 | O no: as a strong man he will run his race, and who shall hinder it? |
A89411 | O now the world, all their comforts will not skreen them from his eyes: but what will? |
A89411 | O put that question, have you this oyl? |
A89411 | O saith he, to his Disciples, could ye not watch with me one hour? |
A89411 | O saith the Holy- Ghost, the heart of man is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked, who can know it? |
A89411 | O that the Lord would therefore perswade you this day to consider with your selves, are you ready, or are you not? |
A89411 | O that we could more strongly close with these; with what confidence should we then come to him? |
A89411 | O that we could tell how to set a price upon such a mercy as this? |
A89411 | O then, how can we satisfie our selves, and quiet our Consciences with an ignorance, how it is with us? |
A89411 | O they are deceitful lusts, ● he counsels of sin, the fetches, and tricks, and devices, depths and methods of a sinful heart, who knoweth Brethren? |
A89411 | O they can not l ● ft up their heads, they can not carry a cheerful heart; why? |
A89411 | O what a hurry and confusion and distraction is he in then, and what fruit hath he then of his sleeping? |
A89411 | O what hardness of heart ▪ and what stubborness, and what frowardness of heart there is? |
A89411 | O what powerfull Rhetorick are these loving intreaties, expostulations, the yearnings of his bowels over them? |
A89411 | O what sad work will there be then in thy soul? |
A89411 | O what will it be when the sentence is pronounced against them from the Lord himself? |
A89411 | O which is the first step? |
A89411 | O why should we not labour to exceed the love of our espousals, when we followed so hard after him? |
A89411 | O why will ye die? |
A89411 | O wretched man, who shall deliver me? |
A89411 | O ye of little Faith, why do you, when means fail, then cast away your hope, as if there were no help in God? |
A89411 | O, how do Persons beside themselves abuse their Physitian? |
A89411 | O, how fat do men grow that fare deliciously every day? |
A89411 | O, how should this make us afraid of hypocrisie and formality, which is ready to creep upon us? |
A89411 | Of his fulness we receive, saith the Evangelist: What made the difference between the rest of the Disciples, their profession of him, and Peters? |
A89411 | Oh how sweet and comfortable a condition is it, when the ways of God are well spoken of by reason of any of us? |
A89411 | Or what is it, Brethren? |
A89411 | Or what, can we heal the breaches we make upon our peace by our recidivations when we please? |
A89411 | Or, is the Law death, since sin by this means doth work death? |
A89411 | Paul, O how watchful a man washe, how diligent? |
A89411 | Peter was at as low an ebb as ever poor Believer was; what was become of his profession? |
A89411 | Received ye the Spirit by the works of the Law, or by the hearing of Faith? |
A89411 | Secondly, Are we grown in understanding? |
A89411 | Secondly, Be sure you miss not an opportunity you might enjoy; do you know where or when the Spirit of Christ will breath? |
A89411 | Secondly, Is that more fruit you bring forth, better then it was before? |
A89411 | Security is the undoing evil in all things; where was the joy of Davids faith when he began to be secure? |
A89411 | Seek his face, will you not be clean, will you not close with Iesus Christ, O when shall it once be? |
A89411 | Shall I a little stir you up to this? |
A89411 | Shall I harbour that in my bosom that was the sting of my blessed Saviour, the poyson whereof- drank up his Spirits? |
A89411 | Shall Satans Kingdom so increase and grow strong, and shall not the Kingdom of Jesus Christ grow stronger also? |
A89411 | Shall we say the Preaching of the Gospel is not a mercy? |
A89411 | Should the Philippians cast it in Pauls teeth, he had told them often of those unruly masters, that they had heard enough of that? |
A89411 | Sinners, in good earnest, do you think it is the way to heaven to grow worse, and worse, or the way to the Chambers of death? |
A89411 | Sixthly, The reward to the service and bondage of sin, what is it but bondage upon bondage? |
A89411 | So Jonas, What, hath the Lord shut up his tender mercies, hath he taken his leave of me, and will he be gone for ever? |
A89411 | So how lazie and listless are we for divers days bef ● ● e it do appear? |
A89411 | So many lusts, so many wills, and is it not a bondage to be under these? |
A89411 | So that you shall walk in darkness and see no light: will not this be a paying of you home in your own coyn? |
A89411 | So the Lord Jesus cometh and giveth his Spirit, and bids the soul go forth: alas, whether should they go? |
A89411 | So when a poor soul hath a lust, a sore running, and never ceasing, how sad a condition is this? |
A89411 | So when they rejected the Lord Jesus, how fearful a day came on them? |
A89411 | Some, they keep their leaf, it shall never fail; some lose their verdour, but recover it again; and what if some wither? |
A89411 | Stand ready therefore, with your loyns girded, and your Lamps burning, wayting for his coming, that you may be ready? |
A89411 | Such as Ahab, Hast thou found me, O mine enemy? |
A89411 | Suppose you do supect your selves to be hypocrites, how do you make a shift to quiet your consciences? |
A89411 | Surely it is Satan that Lier, that will not stick to contradict the Lord: and what is the devills intent in this think you? |
A89411 | Surely no; must there be nothing wanting of perfection where he would make his power and his wisdom glorious? |
A89411 | Surely the wise Virgins refusing to give, would much more have abhorred this, to sell the Gifts of the holy Ghost for money? |
A89411 | That Ancient could say, and likely by experience, Si dixisti, sufficit, periisti; and may not many of us say so, did we ever get good by it? |
A89411 | That Christ the Covenant is meant, I told you before; but for a reason of this title, why a Sun? |
A89411 | That what we do, we do it in Christ, and for Christ; else what do we differ in our work from the glistering Sinners among the heathens? |
A89411 | The Lord cals brethren, you have the voice of the Turtle, the joyful sound of the Gospel among you: If we awake not, what will he do? |
A89411 | The Lord is a Sun and a shield, and how can he so be, except it be in Christ, as God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself? |
A89411 | The Lords day in the morning the Doctor coming to him, and looking on him, wept, to whom Master Murcot said, How is it with me? |
A89411 | The Question, Whether I should answer the peoples Call to be Teacher? |
A89411 | The dreadfulness of the thing; if you be surprized would you have Jesus Christ find you with your ornaments laid aside, find you naked? |
A89411 | The fourth thing is, what is meant by the wings of this Sun of righteousness? |
A89411 | The night brings a heaviness and burthen along with it to the body, but the morning, when the Sun ariseth, how doth it enliven and lighten? |
A89411 | The people of God they have need to make use of this time: have we not work enough to do, before we can expect to be glorified with him? |
A89411 | The sad effects in our own Families: what sad work is there many times, and all for want of watching? |
A89411 | The second thing will be to open the terms and First, What is meant by coming? |
A89411 | The second thing, Is the quod, what this inlargement, or freedom is that is here promised? |
A89411 | The third then, What is meant by the arising of this Sun of righteousness on them? |
A89411 | Then methinks brethren now we should be putting the question to our own hearts now, whether we be ready or no? |
A89411 | Then when Christ is coming, the Bride- groom cometh; doth he not find many running then to a prayer, then to a Sacrament? |
A89411 | There be many that say, Who will shew us any good? |
A89411 | Therefore take your choice brethren, I set life and death before you, and consider of it, How will you escape, if you neglect this great salvation? |
A89411 | They fell short that came to Canaan, what will become of you that never came out of Egypt? |
A89411 | They still have the root of the matter, though it may be under ground, and hid from their eys, and is not this a blessed thing? |
A89411 | Think of it brethren, with your selves; how stand your hearts affected, in respect of this day? |
A89411 | This how strange will it prove to many a poor creature? |
A89411 | This seemeth to cross the Scriptures; are not the Saints bound to communicate one to another? |
A89411 | To consider, How much misery and sin, thou dost hereby avoid? |
A89411 | To his wife looking sadly on him, he said, Love, canst thou pray for ● leep for me, what saist thou? |
A89411 | WE may read a wise man or a fool in his actions, and so here, the foolish took no oyl with their Lamps, and what more foolish then that? |
A89411 | Was Judas ever the better for his backwardness to question his condition, because he was the last that we read, put the question, Lord, Is it I? |
A89411 | Was he enough in our hearts? |
A89411 | Was it not more then ordinary that John leaped within the womb at the voice of the mother of the Lord? |
A89411 | Was it not this which cast Solomon into such a sleep? |
A89411 | Was not this the Prodigals case? |
A89411 | We, by Birth, what are we? |
A89411 | Well then, surely if Jesus Christ hath promised it, as you see he hath, will he not be as good as his word? |
A89411 | Well then, wil you this day retire your selves, deal effectually with your hearts? |
A89411 | Well, but what is he to do? |
A89411 | Well, consider this now, do we thus grow, even by opposition? |
A89411 | Well, now when the Lord meeteth him going to Damascus, If he had called for him out of the world, had he been ready for him? |
A89411 | Well, you tell us of a glorious appearing of Christ, but where is it? |
A89411 | What a shame is this to us, and what a grief is this to God? |
A89411 | What ado is here about coming to Christ, what do we not come to him, do we not follow him? |
A89411 | What are the Turks Gally- slaves but the prey of their piracies? |
A89411 | What are we the better for being delivered from that bondage? |
A89411 | What comfort had Judas of his thirty pieces of silver, when God opened his conscience, and let him see his condition? |
A89411 | What could we answer him, should we have a word to say for our selves? |

A89411 | and how naked would the Sun be without his raies and beams? |
A89411 | and how often do we stand pausing, and lose much time? |
A89411 | and how stands that with the delay of his coming? |
A89411 | and how uncomfortable when they are evil spoken of by reason of any of our uneven walking? |
A89411 | and how you carry it in your Families, in your Shops, as well as in the publike altogether? |
A89411 | and if it be good, why rest they in a form and neglect it? |
A89411 | and if the Lord Jesus cast us not out when we come, what can? |
A89411 | and if they repent not of it, how should it be pardoned? |
A89411 | and in hearing and speaking his Word, though we do stir up our selves to watch: O how often do vain thoughts run away with our hearts? |
A89411 | and is it not a dangerous disease? |
A89411 | and is it not righteous he should forbear to shine upon your graces, that you should see any thing that is ought in you? |
A89411 | and is it not said, our Saviour loved him for that good that was in him, though not with that special love of pitty to save him, that we read of? |
A89411 | and is not circumspect walking before him to all wel- pleasing, the way to be blessed? |
A89411 | and is not he the Father, the God of thunders? |
A89411 | and is not ignorance a blindness of the mind, whereby we are alienated from the life of God? |
A89411 | and is not lust a feavour, yea an ulcer on the liver, or a dart thrust through it? |
A89411 | and is not this a cursed thing, to do Gods work negligently? |
A89411 | and is not this a great part of healing? |
A89411 | and is not this an abomination? |
A89411 | and is not this the Condition of many formal Professors? |
A89411 | and is not this the way to make him repent of the good he hath done unto us, and to withdraw them? |
A89411 | and may I come? |
A89411 | and now are we not ashamed of Christ nor of his Gospel? |
A89411 | and pass by many others that had it may be but one devil, and make love to me that had seven? |
A89411 | and pitch his love upon me? |
A89411 | and shall I fall down to the Stock of a tree? |
A89411 | and shall our mouths be sealed up, when the Sun of righteousness hath visited our hearts, quickned them, enlightned them? |
A89411 | and shall we judge so of Jesus Christ? |
A89411 | and so here in respect of the favour of the King of Kings; and who is this that doth it, but the exact walker with God? |
A89411 | and such a lively hope, as setteth a working out the scum, the pollution of thy heart more and more? |
A89411 | and that is none of the least diseases: is there not a plague there? |
A89411 | and the same blood shed for sinners, that is held forth in the Lords Supper to the eye, and in the Gospel Preached to the ear? |
A89411 | and then think, if the Lord Iesus had limited his receiving of sinners, that come to such or such a measure, what then had become of thee? |
A89411 | and they added to the Church, that are going out of the world? |
A89411 | and was not Babylon better for them, then to be at liberty, and yet to become slaves to their lusts, to their Idols? |
A89411 | and was there ever any times more fruitful in errour then these are? |
A89411 | and what a folly is it Brethren, to grieve the Lord Jesus, and grieve our own souls, when we might save all this? |
A89411 | and what is envy but a blood- shotten eye, which proceedeth from a heart full of vexing? |
A89411 | and what is that will? |
A89411 | and what shall an Hypocrite get by his close ways of unrighteous gaining: if he lose his soul? |
A89411 | and what then can arise to the soul but trouble? |
A89411 | and what will shut us out of heaven but our unbelief? |
A89411 | and what, doth his father upbraid him with it? |
A89411 | and what, is the body more then the soul, Brethren? |
A89411 | and wherefore are the examples of the Saints proposed to us; their falls, their restoring again, but for our comfort and hope? |
A89411 | and who shall stand when he appeareth? |
A89411 | and why do you not now make sure to close with him? |
A89411 | and why may it not be so, and allowed in this case, as well as in that? |
A89411 | and will he not walk contrary to you? |
A89411 | and will it be Comfortable in the end? |
A89411 | and will not all the world follow that way almost? |
A89411 | and will not men stickle for a way of falshood, if thereby come in their gain and preferments? |
A89411 | and will there be any thing wanting, think you, when he cometh to make his grace glorious, as he doth in the work of Redemption? |
A89411 | and with so much diligence, be casting out their roots in the world; as if they would never be pluckt up, as if their portion were here below? |
A89411 | and wounded the Dragon? |
A89411 | and yet alas, how backward are we for heaven? |
A89411 | and yet did not he submit? |
A89411 | and yet do we not love him accordingly? |
A89411 | and yet how sensible was he of his falling flat, even in the midst of such a rapture? |
A89411 | and yet poor creatures will not be perswaded to come to Jesus Christ: O what is it? |
A89411 | and yet will not be perswaded to be at a little pains with your deceitful hearts? |
A89411 | and young men are like to perish as well as old, if they be not found with oyl in their Lamps? |
A89411 | are not men purely receptives in the first grace, and are not children as passive and receptive as any? |
A89411 | are not our hearts as hard as ever? |
A89411 | are not our lusts as strong and lively as ever they were? |
A89411 | are not the gifts and calling of God without repentance? |
A89411 | are not the most part of us such fools? |
A89411 | are our Lamps burning, our loins girded? |
A89411 | are our hearts enlarged? |
A89411 | are there not pearls in the eyes, when the world is dear to us? |
A89411 | are they not come to cast off all? |
A89411 | are they not in danger? |
A89411 | are they not much worse, who would pluck away our Christ from us? |
A89411 | are they not paid in their own coin? |
A89411 | are they such a delight to you? |
A89411 | are we a free people? |
A89411 | are we not all of us pure receptives in the first grace, and are not infants as purely receptives as we? |
A89411 | are we not as blind wretches groping at noon day, some of us, as ever we were? |
A89411 | are you mortified in any good measure, or no? |
A89411 | are you not secure? |
A89411 | are your hearts so desperately heardned that you have no disquietness seizing upon you? |
A89411 | art thou never wrought up to some sweet frame of heart in respect of faith, and love, and humility? |
A89411 | art thou resolved to sit languishing over an empty bottle and perish, when there is refreshing to be had in Jesus Christ? |
A89411 | as David, what service did he do the Lord while he lay in that deep sleep? |
A89411 | as if he search, who can be concealed? |
A89411 | before thou wast empty, knewest very little; now thou hast a Treasury of knowledge, and thou goest on herein: do we grow in our judgements, Brethren? |
A89411 | bethink thy self in what filth and blood thou didst wallow, before he put off his own comliness upon thee? |
A89411 | blessed in basket, blessed in store? |
A89411 | brethren, how can a Woman that pretends faithfulness to an Husband, if he take her in the very act, how can she hold up her head to him? |
A89411 | but alas, then it is too late: now is it not great Wisdom, while men have the day, to work and walk? |
A89411 | but what a sad disappointment will it be and confusion? |
A89411 | but what is this to the having power over the soul, over the will, the affections, the mind, by keeping them in blindness? |
A89411 | by this interrogation there is implied a paucity of them as in that, Who is there among you that walks in darkness, and seeth no light? |
A89411 | can a man be free in any sense, and yet come into bondage again, and perish afterward? |
A89411 | can a man spare any of his life? |
A89411 | can he cast thee out now for thy defects and deformities? |
A89411 | can that be profitable, whose Praise is of men, and not that whose praise is of God? |
A89411 | can the Shadow be profitable, and not the Substance? |
A89411 | can they dwell together? |
A89411 | can they hinder his course? |
A89411 | can you dye comfortably, hopefully, except you have grace in your hearts, this oyl, this Spirit of grace dwelling in you? |
A89411 | can you enjoy your selves? |
A89411 | can you hold up your heads sinners, when he appears, and look him in the face with comfort? |
A89411 | can you think how poor creatures will hang the head, and be filled with their shame, whether shall they cause their shame to pass from them? |
A89411 | canst thou expect then to grow as much as such an one? |
A89411 | come duties from us, like fire from a Flint? |
A89411 | did Husband or Wife die for us? |
A89411 | did he eve ● break with any poor soul, though never so unworthy? |
A89411 | did his love to us draw him out of heaven to us, and will it not( think you) draw us to heaven to him? |
A89411 | did it cost him an ecclipse of the light of the countenance of his Father, and wilt thou make so light a matter of it? |
A89411 | did not Jehu act in an high manner for God? |
A89411 | did not his soul hate these things? |
A89411 | do not dissemble before the Lord, didst thou ever mourn either Legally or Evangellically? |
A89411 | do they not go to the Church- treasure of merit, to make up what is wanting of their own, and not to Jesus Christ in the hour of their necessity? |
A89411 | do they not trouble you? |
A89411 | do we get ground of them yea or no? |
A89411 | do we not imbrew our hands in the blood of Jesus Christ? |
A89411 | do we not judge them to be so? |
A89411 | do you believe it brethren, that they shall live for ever in the enjoyment of God, or else in unexpressible misery? |
A89411 | do you believe they are immortal? |
A89411 | do you believe you have souls? |
A89411 | do you believe, brethren, that hypocrites shall have the deepest damnation? |
A89411 | do you find the vail doth wear thinner that was upon your hearts, that you begin to behold the Lord Jesus with a more open face then before? |
A89411 | do you know brethren, whether you shall be warned again, called upon again to prepare for his coming? |
A89411 | do you know when he will appear? |
A89411 | do you know whether this night the snare will come upon you? |
A89411 | do you loath it, and your selves for its vileness? |
A89411 | do you not see that young men dye even as the old? |
A89411 | do you think he can see his relation to God in Christ without that light? |
A89411 | do you think he will endure you to enter, if you have not grace to sit with him at his Table to eternity? |
A89411 | do you think thus to impose upon the holy one of Israel? |
A89411 | do you thus requite the Lord, ye foolish people and unwise? |
A89411 | do you wait for it, believe it? |
A89411 | dost not thou sleep thy fast, thy dead sleep? |
A89411 | dost thou find it? |
A89411 | dost thou grow there, abound in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ? |
A89411 | dost thou hate it? |
A89411 | dost thou loath thy ● elf for it? |
A89411 | dost thou not avenge us, and judge our enemies? |
A89411 | dost thou not cleave to the Lord with more full and strong purpose of heart then before? |
A89411 | dost thou not value Christ and grace at a higher rate then before, counting all things dross in comparison of him? |
A89411 | dost thou think that now thou hast served sin so long, Jesus Christ will accept of thee? |
A89411 | doth he look to the thoughts, to a mans ends, the secrets of his soul? |
A89411 | doth he mean you shall repent to morrow, as he saith? |
A89411 | doth he not breath there, and feed there with his people? |
A89411 | doth he not wrong exceedingly in this, as well as in the former; and is not this the very case? |
A89411 | doth not he regard, think you, what your dealings are between man& man? |
A89411 | doth not your heavenly Father take care of you? |
A89411 | doth sin increase our grace, increase even by our falls? |
A89411 | doth the Marigold open? |
A89411 | dung and dross, stones and trash, would you not count this man a fool? |
A89411 | even grace for grace we have from the Lord Jesus, though weak and imperfect; and will he cast out? |
A89411 | every such service and duty he performeth to God; and is not this sad? |
A89411 | for he knew that after his departure grievous Wolves would come in; where hath there been almost, such a spirit as this of Paul? |
A89411 | for how few among us do believe in the Lord Jesus, notwithstanding all this? |
A89411 | for if the truth were known, what is the reason wherefore we need so much ado, why we come not in to him? |
A89411 | for is it not the same Jesus that is held forth broken for sinners? |
A89411 | for it is against them that the door is shut; And then the shutting of the door, what is meant by that? |
A89411 | for what more available to lay a soul asleep then this? |
A89411 | for what sin, what temptation, will not take with a poor soul, when he is in this drousie condition? |
A89411 | for what will make more hast then love? |
A89411 | for when are they more exposed to the rage of Satan? |
A89411 | had not a riddle need often to be put into the water, it will hold nothing else? |
A89411 | had they so much of his presence with them, teaching them, and yet were but of little faith? |
A89411 | had we not need to walk exactly then, to take heed where we tread? |
A89411 | hanging back often, neglecting, shuffling and cutting with God, putting him off with any thing? |
A89411 | hast thou ever believed? |
A89411 | hath he not been as good as his word? |
A89411 | hath he not said, as many as come to him, he will in no wise cast out, and is ● is word worth nothing? |
A89411 | hath he said it, and will he not make it good? |
A89411 | hath the Lord looked upon such as we have been, pitched his love upon the vilest of us, and to make us so nigh to himself, and shall we not love him? |
A89411 | hath this sunk with us? |
A89411 | have not our Lamps burned much clearer then now they do, hath not our light been clearer then now it is, and our warmth been more then now it is? |
A89411 | have they not corrupt natures, and the seeds of all sin in them? |
A89411 | have we for fear of shame come to Christ with Nicodemus by night? |
A89411 | have we made conscience any of us, to ease our selves of any unnecessary incumbrances, that we might wait upon him without distraction? |
A89411 | have we not fearful examples in our own times, how many diligent Christians, as they seemed to be, and yet alas how went they out? |
A89411 | have we not had exercises of faith in such an hour? |
A89411 | have we now more courage? |
A89411 | have you Christ dwelling in you, and transforming and changing you into his image from Glory to Glory? |
A89411 | have you heard his Word and Gospel wherein he is lifted up, as the healing Serpent, so many years, and yet not healed? |
A89411 | have you known him, the power of his death, the power of his life, and Spirit, yea or no? |
A89411 | have you searched, do you know your hearts in this point? |
A89411 | have you so often received the Lord his Supper, the outward part of it, and yet are not healed? |
A89411 | have you the Spirit of Grace and Supplication given to you? |
A89411 | have you? |
A89411 | he feeds on ashes, a deceived heart hath turned him aside that he can not deliver his soul, nor say, is there not a lye in my right hand? |
A89411 | he warned them night and day with tears; what was the matter? |
A89411 | he will heal this: how ready was he when the blind men cryed to his that they might receive their sight? |
A89411 | he would not spare any pains, any travel of soul, that sinners might live; and can you but love him then? |

A89411 | how much ado hath the Lord Jesus with us to bring us to this? |
A89411 | how much the more need had we to stir up our selves in this respect, considering how many grow worse and worse? |
A89411 | how often do we come to pray, and can say nothing in his presence, can scarce sigh or groan? |
A89411 | how often have we been minded thereof, that we must be actually prepared? |
A89411 | how often in a fit of security have we had Convictions and Checks? |
A89411 | how quickly will the weakest man grow strong, feeding upon the one; and the strongest weak, when he feedeth upon the other? |

A89411 | is it likely we should keep them alway in act? |
A89411 | is it more mellow then formerly? |
A89411 | is it not a trouble to our selves? |
A89411 | is it not all one with him, can he not make children free as well as men if he please? |

A89411 | is this thy kindness to thy friend? |
A89411 | is thy communication much more seasoned and savoury? |
A89411 | it is not only an unprofitable service, what fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? |
A89411 | its according to the heat of the Sun*: do our hearts open? |
A89411 | know this day, there is healing for thee, cast not away thy hope; for so poor creatures are ready to say, is there any healing for me? |
A89411 | let a Father but examine his heart and see, could he do so for his child? |
A89411 | like Watches, with outward motion? |
A89411 | making the Saints their mediatour of satisfaction and intercession both? |
A89411 | many years: you should be Fathers in Israel, and Mothers in Israel, as Deborah was; and is it so with you? |
A89411 | may not the children of the Kingdom be cast out into outer darkness? |
A89411 | may they sit still and take their ease, never trouble themselves more concerning their souls, never care how to walk in well- pleasing to Christ? |
A89411 | may we not set to our seals to the truth of this? |
A89411 | much less then would he do the greatest thing that ever be wrought in vain; alas, who can pardon sins but he? |
A89411 | no healing by this Jesus whom we wounded? |
A89411 | no salvation by this Jesus whom we have made away? |
A89411 | no, not a jot: thou fool this night shall thy soul be taken from thee, and then whose shall these things be? |

A89411 | not one hour wake with me, thou, such a confident man; and yet when it cometh to the pinch, fall asleep? |
A89411 | nothing? |

A89411 | opened to us in Jesus Christ, his bowels of Love all shed abroad upon us? |
A89411 | or Lazarus, because of his? |
A89411 | or are you inclining to it? |
A89411 | or fast to me, did you not bring forth fruit to your selves? |
A89411 | or hath any man a pardon in a box, as the poor deceived Papists are grievously mocked? |
A89411 | or have we never set stroke in it? |
A89411 | or if Jesus Christ had slept as well as they, where had it been? |
A89411 | or if thou bring forth no more in number, is it more in weight? |
A89411 | or if we do sometimes a little, yet to stand out and not to close with him: What unkindness was it in the Jews? |
A89411 | or is it between the will and the will, the affections and the affections? |
A89411 | or that should not sleep, and know they should not sleep, it will hazard their lives: is their sleep sweet ordinarily? |
A89411 | or the Lepers, because of theirs? |
A89411 | or was he too much there? |
A89411 | or what hope hast thou, or canst thou have while it is thus with thoe? |
A89411 | or whosoever cometh to him, might not perish? |
A89411 | our calling and election is not made sure; we do not know what would become of us, if God should call for us: how can his coming be comfortable to us? |
A89411 | pardoning iniquity, transgression and sin; and canst thou comprehend the Glory of God in thy poor narrow thoughts? |
A89411 | prizeth that? |
A89411 | ransom us from the pit and hell? |
A89411 | s 〈 … 〉 it not better for a man to know his wound before it prove incurable? |
A89411 | saith he in one place, where they could not cast out the Devil: And will not God take care of you much more then of Sparrows? |
A89411 | shall sons by adoption think to make bold with sin, and not smart for it in some measure? |
A89411 | shall we see them lie as a prey just ready for the Devils mouth, and not endeavour to stir them up to remove that drowfie frame from them? |
A89411 | so much in heat? |
A89411 | so that heaven and earth is full of thy sighs, and groans, and tears: is it no ● for Jesus Christ? |
A89411 | such a grieving creature to his holy Spirit? |
A89411 | such a mans condition is very dangerous: and is not this the case of our souls Brethren? |
A89411 | such a vile creature? |
A89411 | surely no: when a man sleepeth, and in his sleep is terrified with dreams, how unquiet is he? |
A89411 | that haply thou mightest never have seen again? |
A89411 | that no visible, unclean creature, shall ever enter into the Church of Christ? |
A89411 | that the Vineyard of the Lord Iesus is thus overgrown with weeds; have we not given the Lord rest? |
A89411 | that we are said to be delivered from it, and that sin hath its strength from it? |
A89411 | the Lord help poor weak creatures unbelief in this point, that they may admire it; what, will he admit such a one as I? |
A89411 | the Lord takes no pleasure in your death; and why will ye delight in your own death? |
A89411 | the Shell and Husk, and not the Kernel? |
A89411 | the enjoyment of Jesus Christ nothing to us, that we make no more haste toward him? |
A89411 | the enquiry, Who will shew us any good? |
A89411 | the eye of a holy severe man, how would it awe us? |
A89411 | the heaviness of his soul to the death; must he bleed to death, that we might not bleed to death, that our bloody issues might be stopt? |
A89411 | the rase wherein they had Lamps or Torches; but who hath hindered you? |
A89411 | the soul asleep, and in security, what would he not do? |
A89411 | then shall we appear with him in glory? |
A89411 | then, Doth he call thee? |
A89411 | they are not very ordinary; so again, Who hath believed our report, and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed? |
A89411 | they had Faith, but it was very little; How long shall I be with you? |
A89411 | this is clear in the very case of the Church in the Canticles; how long did he call, and call again, and wait upon her, and yet she is not awaked? |
A89411 | thou comest behind the Pharisees far enough, and they enter not, they fall short; what will become of thee? |
A89411 | thou wast in an horrible pit, where there was no standing; thou sunkest yet lower and lower: hath the Lord set thy feet upon the Rock? |
A89411 | though you have long had a name to be Christians, yet that hath been all, Brethren, What do you mean? |
A89411 | thy light is come, the glory of the Lord is risen on thee: and who is this but the Lord Jesus? |
A89411 | thy thoughts it may be are wandering and vain, he will heal that; what is it? |
A89411 | time was when you were babes in understanding; are you new men and women, or are you past the state of babes? |
A89411 | to be saved? |
A89411 | to bring a female when he have a male, doth not your hearts smite you for this? |
A89411 | to cry Lord, Lord, and yet go and serve, and drudge for the Devil, as if he were their good Lord; will not the Lord search this out? |
A89411 | to do good, forget not; is not this of a larger sense, then meerly giving a little of our estates to them, if in want? |
A89411 | to keep his foot out of the snare vvhen he walks among them? |
A89411 | to whom shall I turn my self? |
A89411 | try, see whether such considerations as these will not heighten your love to him? |
A89411 | upon what acquaintance shall I do this for you? |
A89411 | walk so watchlesly as we do, to go on to grieve him, as we do some of us? |
A89411 | was my Love and my Communion no more worth? |
A89411 | was not his life dear to him, even to the death sor poor sinners, that there might be a pardon for us? |
A89411 | was there any Grace laid up to carry him through death? |
A89411 | was this his kindness to Jesus Christ? |
A89411 | was, or could this be acceptable? |
A89411 | we are all sick of the leapers disease in the Gospel, ten were cleansed, but where are the nine? |
A89411 | we are poor, imperfect creatures, and therefore can we be alway acting our graces? |
A89411 | we come to hear the Word, but with what affections? |
A89411 | we have fallen, been wounded, wounded his Name, and our own names, and our own souls, and all, because we were asleep? |
A89411 | we might instance in many:( Brethren) are there not eyes full of adultry, like fleams grown over them, which do blind? |
A89411 | we sleep, but though we sleep, Satan never sleepeth? |
A89411 | were not many of the Jews sensible os this? |
A89411 | were not the Sacrifices of the Jews abomination, as if they slew a man, as if they cut off a dogs neck? |
A89411 | were not this enough to lose a Physitian? |
A89411 | were not this horrible deceit? |
A89411 | were there any deadly doubt of their condition, then the Pharisees; and yet were there any more rotten then they were? |
A89411 | were they not men of much knowledge and understanding, able to teach others? |
A89411 | were they the slaves to Satan, and can we be Christ his Free- men by Birth? |
A89411 | were we not much wanting to our selves herein, it would be much more comfortable for us then it is? |
A89411 | what Spiders are we, that can suck venom out of the sweetest flowers? |
A89411 | what a Mediatour were Jesus Christ, and how should the Promises of God in him, be Yea, and Amen, if he could falsifie his own word to his people? |
A89411 | what a sad thing is it that we should thus throng upon Christ, and so few touch him? |
A89411 | what account shall we make, when we come to receive the recompence? |
A89411 | what can move him to give us over? |
A89411 | what can we do less then this? |

A89411 | what had the Disciples lost, if Jesus Christ had suffered them to sleep all the while of his transfiguration? |
A89411 | what have you been doing all this while, that you have never got a sight of Christ, a touch of him to this day, that you might be healed? |
A89411 | what if he resolve to grieve thee, and give thee enough of thy back- slidings? |
A89411 | what if my soul be taken from me this night, now the Arrows of God are scattered among our dwellings? |
A89411 | what if the Dogs do bark at the Moon, the Church, or at Christ, the Sun? |
A89411 | what if this night you should be taken away, or you should never see Sabbath more, are you ready for the coming of Jesus Christ? |
A89411 | what is it Brethren, that can keep us off thus from Jesus Christ? |
A89411 | what is it but to kiss him with Judas, and yet to betray him? |
A89411 | what is it that thy soul cryeth out for to God, early and late? |
A89411 | what is it, Brethren? |

A89411 | what need more to be said to you concerning these things? |
A89411 | what sad creatures are we, that have so many sicknesses on us, and each of them deadly; and how much more many then together? |

A89411 | what shall they do there? |
A89411 | what shall we do? |
A89411 | what shall we think brethren, of such, in such cases? |
A89411 | what should the Lord Jesus do with us bretbren, if we should retain our swinish disposition to wallow in the myre? |
