A54794 | Which of you by taking thought can add one Cubit to his Stature? |
A54794 | Which shall we follow then? |
A54794 | Who are they? |
A54794 | Will ye have a short& witty Discovery? |
A54794 | Will ye have any Balm of Gilead, any Eye salve, any Myrrh, Aloes, or Cassia? |
A54794 | You''ll say perhaps, What is this to the purpose? |

A90265 | The Lion hath roared, who will not feare? |
A90265 | The Lord God hath spoken, who can but Prophecy? |
A90265 | The Lord God hath spoken, who can but prophesie? |
A90265 | The Lyon hath roared, who will not feare? |
A90265 | Where is the law for that? |
A90265 | and how shall they do this? |
A90265 | and if God give a blessing to his endeavours, may hee not become a Pastor to the converted soules? |
A90265 | must they not beware of false Prophets, which come unto them in sheepes cloathing, but inwardly are ravening wolves? |
A90265 | or were they of human invention? |
A90265 | or what is there in all this more then God required of his ancient people, as I shewed before? |
A90265 | to foment and cherish errors in one another? |
A90265 | to give false interpretations of the word, there being no way to prevent it? |
A90265 | what way remaines, but a trying their doctrine by the rule? |
A90265 | yeild to every breath, to every puffe of false doctrine? |

A36258 | Besides to what end can this post- nate knowledge serve? |
A36258 | Could you even in these difficulties repeat your choice if it were reiterable? |
A36258 | For how can it be known that a prediction was fulfilled when it is not known what was predicted? |
A36258 | For if they had been revealed formerly what need had there been of a new discovery? |
A36258 | If you were fearful that this were true, certainly you would not venture on them; if you be not, how is it credible that you do believe them? |
A36258 | Is it therefore for the conviction of Infidels? |
A36258 | My meaning is not, that these natural qualifications alone are sufficient for discharging the Clerical Calling? |
A36258 | Or, if you were desporate of any other portion in this life, would you not either wish it undone, or even actually undo it if you could with honour? |
A36258 | Otherwise how can you i silence Blasphemers with confusion and shame whilest they may have any just occasion of carping at you? |
A36258 | and if it be, then Secondly, whether that Theological Controversie it self be of any moment? |
A36258 | for satisfying Christians of the Divine prescience upon the accomplishment of his predictions? |
A36258 | what violence they used in their stile, and therefore what regular abatements were to be allowed? |
A36258 | whether it be more necessary, or onely more convenient? |
A36258 | whether, if more necessary ▪ it be also more secure, especial ● y in regard of your greater interest ●? |
A36258 | whether, if some be wanting, they be either fewer, or less considerable than those you have? |
A36258 | whether, if they fit you onely, or peculiarly for this, yet, you may not have other qualifications that may make it dangerous? |
A36258 | whether, if you have none, yet, you have not onely some, but all, the qualifications for this Calling? |
A36258 | whether, if you have such as may render it dangerous, the danger be greater, or more probable to come to pass, than the advantage? |
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? |

A93926 | 1. Who shall secure the Tithingman for what he doth upon the Justices unjust proceedings? |
A93926 | Answer, How or when could the Parson see with his eyes such horrid acts of blasphemy, and not with his tongue reprove nor admonish the offender? |
A93926 | Art thou he that livest in the Spirit? |
A93926 | Art thou more wise, more holy, more knowing then the Bishops, and the Episcopal Preachers? |
A93926 | Art thou not raised up of the devil to bring an evil report upon the work of Reformation? |
A93926 | As a bird wandereth from her nest, so is a man that wandereth from his place,& c. Was not this man as a silly bird to wander from his place? |
A93926 | But why do you boast your self in your own deceivings? |
A93926 | Do not the Episcopalians hate thy waies in wickednesse? |
A93926 | Is not M. White and the Parish beholding to T. W? |
A93926 | Is not the light that is in thee darknesse? |
A93926 | Judge Nicholas saith, O sirra, you know the Law, do you? |
A93926 | Lord how good thou art? |
A93926 | The second was, Whether ever they took M. W. to be a good woman? |
A93926 | Then the Presbyterian and Independent Ministers, or rather, art thou not altogether notwithstanding like a deceitfull Idol? |
A93926 | Thou art guilded with godlinesse I say: Art thou not altogether in the flesh? |
A93926 | Two questions Mr Stokes desires them to satisfie him in; one is Why the fact was concealed till now? |
A93926 | Webb is satisfied with his Masse of malice ▪ and that one of many acts of blasphemy is enough to record at this time? |
A93926 | Were not these mock- prayers? |
A93926 | What provision is made for conveying him and his& c. to Goal, for a foot they can not go, and horses they will not hire? |
A93926 | When you appeared in sheeps clothing, who harmed you, who molested you, who advanced themselves above you? |
A93926 | Wherefore Mr Stokes demands of them why they trouble him about such complaints? |
A93926 | Whereupon this Deponents husband asked the said Mr Webbe, What? |
A93926 | Whether J. O. aforesaid being an ingenuous young man, was not a fit piece of the Creation, to be a wife for T. Webbe the Parson? |
A93926 | Whether the said Webbe be not a man of a thousand to make a Parish Parson, and publique Preacher in this time of Reformation? |
A93926 | Whether( seeing they were States- prisoners) the State ought not to make provision for them, both to the Goal and in the Goal? |
A93926 | do you tell them lies in the Pulpit? |
A93926 | from his lawfull calling? |
A93926 | from his pretended purity, to lay the egs of his filthinesse in other birds nests? |
A93926 | from the wife of his bosome? |
A93926 | that art raised up against a time of Reformation, to help forward the work? |
A93926 | that hast attained to a higher light? |
A93926 | why at that time of the night? |
A93926 | why they did not rather get the assistance of some of their friends to reconcile them? |
A28368 | Alas, what is wisdom without a mouth? |
A28368 | Are you not more carefull to enquire whether your Curats be conformable to the Ceremonies of the Church, than whether they bee diligent in preaching? |
A28368 | But now these two dishonours what be they? |
A28368 | Canst thou make him afraid as the Grashopper? |
A28368 | Doth not the Apostle by these words, who is sufficient for these things? |
A28368 | Ergo why should you live of the Gospell? |
A28368 | Fourthly the love of Christ were it present, would constraine Ministers to feede his sheepe: Peter saith Christ, lovest thou mee? |
A28368 | Hath God given you gifts fit to teach? |
A28368 | Hee is of a shamelesse forehead that will denie your desire to Magistrates, how did they struggle for the sword of Justice at Salisbury? |
A28368 | How much more a Minister? |
A28368 | I would know whether this precept requireth the personall presence of the Pastor or no? |
A28368 | Is it not for not shewing themselves workemen, rightly dividing the Word of truth? |
A28368 | Search the Scriptures, for in them ye think to have eternall life, but they are they which testifie against you: Why are ye called* Watchmen? |
A28368 | Secondly, and whether God will not call you to a fearefull account one day for the breach of these honest promises? |
A28368 | THus saith the Lord God unto the shepheards, woe be to the shepheards of Israel, that do feed themselves, should not the shepheards feed the flock? |
A28368 | To what end else is this vaine ostentation, of Wit, Eloquence, Reading, and all variety of learning? |
A28368 | VVHether they can say with the Apostl ●, I seeke not yours but you? |
A28368 | What is the cause of late, the calling of Ministers hath fallen into such contempt? |
A28368 | What is the cause so few subject themselves to Christs Scepter? |
A28368 | What? |
A28368 | When Christ in John 21 asked Peter thrice, Simon, lowest ● ho ● me? |
A28368 | Wherefore serve they? |
A28368 | Whether they use to make mention of those that are under their charge in their prayers, praying for their establishment and profection in grace? |
A28368 | Whom shall I send? |
A28368 | Why, are they Ministers then? |
A28368 | Wisdome that is hid, and a treasure that is not seen what profit is in them both? |
A28368 | but that you should be painefull:* Shepheards? |
A28368 | but that you should be vigilant:* Harvest labourers? |
A28368 | but that you should have a care of your flocks:* Stewards? |
A28368 | for God''s sake let the labourers have their due wages, shall not the Parliament doe well to compell you thereunto? |
A28368 | no leisure to be Ministers? |
A28368 | or who shall go for us? |
A28368 | to Pride, fulnesse of bread, abundance of idlenesse, and doe they strengthen the hands of the poore and needy? |
A26980 | And are all these sects that oppose us, better agreed among themselves? |
A26980 | And can you not hear the Devil in these words of highest Pride and Arrogancy? |
A26980 | And dare you now stand up in their room and make your selves the heirs of their sin, and punishment, and justifie them in all their Malignity? |
A26980 | And do you reproach us with our mercies, if we be out of the Furnace but a little while, in one corner of the world? |
A26980 | And how prove you that we have not the Spirit? |
A26980 | And if we be not persecuted, What means the reproaches of you and all the Drunkards and Malignants about us? |
A26980 | And is there enow that are wiser and better then we to fill up our rooms, if we were out? |
A26980 | And what do they endure all this for but Gods honour and your salvation? |
A26980 | And what else do Quakers and all these sectst that are the enemies of the Ministry? |
A26980 | And what have they got by it? |
A26980 | And why so? |
A26980 | And will you throw stones at their head for endeavouring to save your souls? |
A26980 | And would not you do the like by them if you had power in your hands? |
A26980 | And would these men make all the people thieves and covetous, to take or desire that which never was their own? |
A26980 | But if they had their will, and were rid of the Ministry, alas what would the forlorn wretches do? |
A26980 | But really Sirs, do you think that these men would teach you better? |
A26980 | Can they be so blind as to think a painful Minister doth make it his design to seek himself, or to look after great matters in the world? |
A26980 | Do I need to prove this, which is so much of the substance of the old Testament and the New? |
A26980 | Do not Lawyers, Physitians,& c. live a far easier, and in the world a more honourable plentiful life? |
A26980 | Do not all preach one Gospel, and the same Essentials of the Christian Faith? |
A26980 | Do not you feel these flie in your faces when you oppose the Ministers of Christ? |
A26980 | Do you not understand the meaning of these words against Christs Ministers? |
A26980 | Do you think so many souls would be converted if the Ministry were down? |
A26980 | Doth a thief or murderer sin against plainer light then you? |
A26980 | Doth not Paul pray that the Gospel may run and be glorified, and that we may be delivered from unreasonable wicked men? |
A26980 | For whom do we watch, but for them and others? |
A26980 | Have you already forgotten how the persecutots of a godly Ministry have sped within these sixteen years in England and Ireland? |
A26980 | Have you forgotten what God hath done here against the Papal enemies of the Gospel and Ministry, in 88. and the Powder- plot, and many other times? |
A26980 | How many millions of souls would these wretches sweep away to hell, if they had their will? |
A26980 | If he do not know, will you blame him for using the best that he can get? |
A26980 | If none, you may see what they are doing: if any, Who and where are they? |
A26980 | Is it any thing but what they had before? |
A26980 | Is it not horrible Pride if all these silly souls do think that they can do it better themselves? |
A26980 | Is it not malice or sacrilegious covetousness that frameth this accusation? |
A26980 | Is not this the loud language of their actions? |
A26980 | Is that their wages that you owe them? |
A26980 | Nay would they have them rob God, to whom for his service the Tithes were devoted? |
A26980 | Or to ruine his Kingdom, then to reject his Officers? |
A26980 | The Elders that Rule well are wor ● hy of double honour,& c.] with abundance more such passages as these? |
A26980 | Then they might damn themselves without disturbance, and go quietly to hell, and no body stop them, and say,[ Why do you so?] |
A26980 | This is soon said too: but where''s the proof? |
A26980 | Was it the friends or enemies of all the Prophets, Apostles and Ministers of Christ, that Scripture and all good writers do commend? |
A26980 | What I must Gods Ministers above all others be grudged food and raiment, and that of the Lords portion, which none of you pay for? |
A26980 | What difference between the calling, doctrine and lives of those martyred Ministers, and these that are now alive? |
A26980 | What greater service could all the world do for the Devil then to cast out the Ministers of Christ? |
A26980 | What if the Ministers were all cast out? |
A26980 | What readier way to ruine the Schools of Christ, then by casting out the Teachers that he hath appointed under him? |
A26980 | What work would heresies, and division, and prophanness make, if these banks were cut down? |
A26980 | What would you have more then is granted you? |
A26980 | Who doth not desire that all the Lords people were Prophets? |
A26980 | Who fights against Christs Officers and Army, but the General of the contrary Army? |
A26980 | Who should teach the ignorant, or rebuke the obstinate, explain the word of truth, and stop the mouthes of proud gain- sayers? |
A26980 | Whose are the Tithes? |
A26980 | Will you spit in their faces for seeking with all their might to keep you from Hell? |
A26980 | Would not the time, and labour, and cost that they are at in the Schools and Universities have fitted them for a more gainful trade? |
A26980 | Would we be Ministers for any lower ends? |
A26980 | [ Shall evil be recompenced for Good? |
A26980 | and oppose the same sort of Ministers that the Papists burned? |
A26980 | and what more would the Devil himself desire, to set up his Kingdom and suppress the Church? |
A26980 | are they ours or theirs? |
A26980 | or ever endeavoured? |
A26980 | where was there ever Church on earth that continued without a Minister? |
A26980 | would they have any to do Gods work in their stead, or none? |
A39199 | And first what think you of the great pains some have taken in perswading people to look to their election? |
A39199 | And what do you think the reason is? |
A39199 | Are they not branded with the odious name of Phanaticks? |
A39199 | For what great violence was offer''d to the adored Mammon by tything a sprig of Mint, or a Pint of Cummin- seed? |
A39199 | For who is he whose Conscience hath been always so callous, as not sometimes to awake him, and put him upon sorrow and holy resolves? |
A39199 | For why should any man think that his exhortation should prevail more with me, than himself? |
A39199 | How could they mistrust the Religion of such zealous devoters? |
A39199 | How often have you seen a Preacher heat himself, beyond the need of any vestments? |
A39199 | I pray, Sir, tell me, is not here an excellent Evangelist? |
A39199 | If this be true, what can the most sensual Sinner desire more? |
A39199 | Now what good Christian will gainsay this? |
A39199 | Now, Sir, How mightily( do you think) must this Courtship endear them to their people? |
A39199 | Or what inference( I pray) can be drawn from it, but this? |
A39199 | Prosperum scelus vocatur virtus? |
A39199 | Sometimes speaking in a tolerable tone, and presently again crying out as if under some immediate distraction? |
A39199 | Suborned to patronize and defend this loose Doctrine? |
A39199 | Tell me soberly, did you ever in all your reading, meet with a Quirk of more mischievous consequence to all the purposes of goodness and vertue? |
A39199 | Tell me, Sir, which of these the people were most likely to slave at and admire? |
A39199 | That a man may safely follow Providence contrary to some known Precepts? |
A39199 | Were it not much better to be serious in preventing this direful Exit, now in time? |
A39199 | Were it not much safer to cease quarrelling and disputing against things( acknowledged by themselves) indifferent? |
A39199 | What Censures then can be too severe for these men, when prophane and profligate? |
A39199 | What benefit gain I by hearing a loud Harangue about the excellency of Faith? |
A39199 | What course could be less contrary or afflicting to a scornful Pride, than to take care never to eat with Publicans and Sinners? |
A39199 | What great austerity in fasting twice a week, so that a Feast might be allowed to their lusts all the days beside? |
A39199 | What great difficulty in a long Prayer, while that would presently be recompensed with the Widows House? |
A39199 | What great hardship in washing before meat, while the Soul was freely left to it''s uncleanness? |
A39199 | What great unpleasantness in always washing when they had been in the Market, all the while they brought thence such good pennyworths? |
A39199 | What have you thought of these men, when you have beheld the strange antick gestures, the ludicrous postures of some addressing themselves to Prayer? |
A39199 | What mad men were we( I have heard some say) to undergo these things, but that our Consciences oblige us thereto? |
A39199 | What think you of the accounts we have from these men of the business of justification, by a bare empty Faith? |
A39199 | What wild and horrible inferences have we known made from these words? |
A39199 | What''s that Sheep profited by Cloathing others, while it self goeth naked? |
A39199 | Who but a madman would seek to build a fortune unto others upon the ruins of his own House? |
A39199 | Who regards a drunken mans Exhortation to Temperance? |
A39199 | Who seeth not how often, and how shamefully they have been non- plust and bafled? |
A39199 | Who that''s wise seeth not in this the desperateness of a sinking cause, and an acknowledged inabillity of ever fairly maintaining it? |
A39199 | Who, by vertue of this Doctrine, may not warrantably undertake any thing, that he hath any tollerable hopes of being able to perform? |
A39199 | Would ever any but a Madman, or worse, have given encouragement to people to come full of sin and wickedness unto Christ? |
A39199 | You may see this in two Speeches of our Saviour himself, have not I chosen you twelve, yet one is a Devil? |
A39199 | a Faith that is to do no more but barely accept of Christ, and boldly lay hold on his Salvation, and strongly believe it self justified? |
A39199 | and endeavour by all means to secure that in the first place? |
A39199 | and is it not as good allmost to take away their lives, as their reputation? |
A39199 | and of the great motive added to enforce this perswasion? |
A39199 | and proclaimed his readiness of accepting all that can but cry Meih, though never such great Whores or swell''d with wickedness? |
A39199 | and that God many times calls his people, by some signal acts of his Providence to follow him in untrodden ways, nay prohibited paths? |
A39199 | and the glistering and amazing service and worship of Baal, before the less pompous service of the God of Israel? |
A39199 | by every man laying aside these poor low mean designs, and quitting that peevishness, and that Pride that necessarily engage men upon them? |
A39199 | have they not, many of them, parted with good Livings to preserve their Consciences pure and untainted? |
A39199 | how could they chuse almost but admire the zeal and fervour of such worshippers? |
A39199 | little loss could result from hence to the estate; and who would not readily be just in these minute things that he might neglect it in greater? |
A39199 | of Schismaticks? |
A39199 | or believe that himself thinks that necessary, with which he makes bold so constantly to dispense? |
A39199 | or hope to perswade me to practise that ▪ of which I see him wholly regardless? |
A39199 | or quarrel with the good man for asserting of it? |
A39199 | or what comfort finds that filly Worm in its death, who hath extracted its bowels to make others fine and gay? |
A39199 | prefer these Idolatrous Priests, before the Lords Prophet? |
A39199 | that if a person can have but the courage, to venture boldly upon a promise without more ado, he shall be accepted by Christ Jesus? |
A39199 | the Ark is gone, and do not they suffer in its Captivity? |
A39199 | the happiness of being interested in Christ? |
A39199 | the making vents, and Schisms, and parties in the Church, which must be acknowledg''d extreamly dangerous? |
A39199 | the strange amazing violencies that some have forced themselves into, in that performance? |
A39199 | what a Fool were he that could not tell God Almighty, that his debaucheries and villanies were not committed by him as a Christian, but as a man? |
A39199 | where''s the Sinner to be found, whose Paroxisms have been so constant, as never to afford him any lucid intervals? |
A39199 | while I neither am told the true nature of the one, nor directed to the right and proper means of obtaining the other? |
A39199 | who is he that will breathe after an active Faith, such an one as is to work by Love? |
A37498 | 13. of the Whole Church, that by one Spirit we are all baptized into one Body, and are all made to drink into one Spirit? |
A37498 | Again, are Believers, as he affirms, at an infinite distance from Christ? |
A37498 | And can not we be Enemies to this, say You, without hating the Blessed Word of God? |
A37498 | And do they not receive it alike immediately from God? |
A37498 | And how contrary is this Doctrine to Mr. Simpsons? |
A37498 | And if the Ceremonies of the Law were in use under the Gospel, how ought we to rendour Garments at the Hearing of these Things? |
A37498 | And if the World by Wisdom, that is, its Philosophy, knew not God, how can it by that Wisdom reveal God and his things, which it never knew? |
A37498 | And so during all the Reign of Antichrist in the World, whom hath he prevailed withall, and deceived, but only the World? |
A37498 | And was this Promise only made to Them, and not to all the Faithfull also, who should believe in Christ through their Word? |
A37498 | And what Humane Learning had Steven? |
A37498 | And what now are the University- Degrees in Divinity to these? |
A37498 | Are Grammar, Rhetorick, Logick, Ethicks, Physicks, Metaphysicks, Mathematicks, the Weapons whereby we must defend the Gospel? |
A37498 | Art Thou come to destroy Us? |
A37498 | Behold the Lord will help me; who is he that shall condemn me? |
A37498 | But did Moses ever teach any of that Learning in the Church, or publish any of the Doctrines of it? |
A37498 | But what do they perform at length? |
A37498 | But what strange Phrase is this? |
A37498 | Did I make a Gain of you, by any of them whom I sent unto you? |
A37498 | Do not the Saints partake of the Divine Nature? |
A37498 | Doth this man truly believe in the Son of the Living God, who makes Him such an helpless Idol? |
A37498 | For is our Union with Christ, the Foundation of Error? |
A37498 | For what Humane Learning had Peter and John? |
A37498 | For which of the Philosophers instructed the Apostles? |
A37498 | He is near that justifies me; who will contend with me? |
A37498 | How can this Doctrine agree with these Scriptures? |
A37498 | How shall they teach except they be sent? |
A37498 | I Answer, what part of Philosophy is here made use of? |
A37498 | If any say, I my self relate to the University, why then do I speak against it thus? |
A37498 | If this were true, what sad news would it be to the Church of God? |
A37498 | In what a sad condition then are the Common and Plain People, that they can not Pledge him? |
A37498 | Is it not a madness then to say that we could not understand the Scripture without Aristotle? |
A37498 | Let Us alone, what have We to do with Thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? |
A37498 | Must that Word be secured by Aristotle, which delivers all the Elect from Sin, Death, and Hell for ever? |
A37498 | Now doth not all this declare a most woful Ignorance of, and Enmity to the Gospel of God our Saviour? |
A37498 | Now if any shall say, But how shall we know whether a man hath Christ dwelling in his Heart or no? |
A37498 | Or did he command, or encourage any of the People of God to learn it? |
A37498 | Or how shall the Mysterie of Faith, and of our Union with Christ through Faith into One Flesh and Spirit with Him, be known? |
A37498 | Or how shall the free Justification of a Sinner through the Death of Christ, and his Reconciliation to God, be known? |
A37498 | Or the New Birth and New Creature, which hath all things New in it, and all those New things, the Things of God? |
A37498 | Or what Help must they have to teach them Divinity, who have not opportunity to gain Humane Learning? |
A37498 | Quae ergo Eleemosyna est, sic sovere puerulum talem Diaboli in Castris Cainiticis contra Christum? |
A37498 | Quis est sapiens& intelliget haec? |
A37498 | What Alms therefore is it, to cherish such a Childe of the Devil, in Cains Castles, against Christ? |
A37498 | Where shall you meet with such Mockers and Scoffers at God, and his Gospel, as here? |
A37498 | Who can give the Spirit of God to Man, but God Himself? |
A37498 | Yea farther, where shall you see Youth again in all the Nation, so vain, proud, fantastical, bold, impudent? |
A37498 | and so consequently, whether he be a true or false Prophet? |
A37498 | and what is the Divine Nature, but the very Nature of God? |
A37498 | dost thou Love me? |
A37498 | dost thou Love me? |
A37498 | let us stand together, who is mine adversary? |
A37498 | or did Titus make a Gain of you? |
A37498 | or have true Believers no real Union with Christ, but imaginary? |
A37498 | or who of the Heathens are here quoted? |
A37498 | seeing Nothing on Earth can reveal the least part of these things? |
A37498 | walked we not Both in the same Spirit? |
A37498 | with all the rest of the Things of the Gospel? |
A09445 | 3 Are good Ministers so thinne sowne, are there so few of them? |
A09445 | A Minister is to declare the reconciliation betwixt God and man, and is he himselfe not reconciled? |
A09445 | Againe, might not the Prophet haue alledged that with a better pretence and colour then they? |
A09445 | Also, I heard the voyce of the Lord, saying, whom shall I send, and who shall goe for vs? |
A09445 | And if it be a shame and miserie? |
A09445 | And in another place: The Angel of God appeared, whose I am, and whom I serue? |
A09445 | And some want willingnesse to vndertake the labour, as God here complaineth; Who shall goe for vs? |
A09445 | And they teach, a man may in this life perfectly fulfill the Lawe, but who can doe it, if not Ministers? |
A09445 | And what Ministers, if not extraordinary Prophets? |
A09445 | Are not these goodly liuings for learned men, and may not wee expect a learned Ministerie, where there is such maintenance? |
A09445 | But alas, can not the Kings Messenger or Officer be honoured, vnlesse he be set vppon the Kings throne? |
A09445 | But for the matter: are apparitions from heauen so ordinary in the popish Church? |
A09445 | But let those men marke heere the phrase of this holy Prophet ▪ when God asked, Whom shall I sen ● e? |
A09445 | But then it may bee demaunded, why the Lord saith so? |
A09445 | But to goe further: whence came this Coale? |
A09445 | But what kinde of seruants are they? |
A09445 | But why will some say, complaines hee of the pollution of his ● ippes, rather then of his heart, or his hands, or any other part of him? |
A09445 | By this inquirie, and question made by God, Whom shal I send, and who shall goe for vs? |
A09445 | Can hee commend the state of Grace to another,& neuer felt the sweetnes thereof in his owne soule? |
A09445 | Dare he present another man to Gods mercy for pardon, and neuer yet presented himselfe? |
A09445 | Dare hee come to preach sanctification with polluted lyps, and out of an vnsanctified hart? |
A09445 | Euen cry to the mountaines, fall vpon vs: and to the hils, couer vs, and hide vs: from what? |
A09445 | For shall the Oxes mouth be mousled, which treads out the corne, or shall a man goe to warre at his owne cost? |
A09445 | Hee willes the Lorde to send him: then where are they who dare bragge of their priuate motions, and will runne when they are not sent? |
A09445 | How foule a thing is it that amongst so many, the Lord should haue cause to complaine; Whom shall we send? |
A09445 | If any aske, how he shall know when God calles him? |
A09445 | If any man aske; But is it not as good if anoth ● ● man pronounce forgiuenesse vnto mee vpo ● my repentance? |
A09445 | In the last place, let vs marke what God saith: Whom shal I send, and who shal go for vs? |
A09445 | In the old Testamēt, when the people receiued the lawe from Gods owne mouth, it is said, they ranne away and cryed out, why should we dye? |
A09445 | Is it not then an honor& happines vnto thee to bring thy sonne to this estate? |
A09445 | The Lord knoweth who are his, and neede not to aske whom shall I send, or who shall goe? |
A09445 | The second vse concernes the ministers also: are they Gods Angels? |
A09445 | Thirdly, let vs obserue how the Lord saith: Who shal( I) send,& who shal go for( vs)? |
A09445 | This should be the end of their preaching, to deliuer a soule from hell, and what should Commissioners doe, but execu ● e theyr Commission? |
A09445 | When shall I send, and who shall goe for vs? |
A09445 | Where is the cause? |
A09445 | Whom shall I send? |
A09445 | Why then should they so much condemne them, for such faults ▪ as wherein themselues haue made them faultie? |
A09445 | Will you knowe the meaning heereof? |
A09445 | and hath not God ordained( marke it is his Ordinance) that those who teach the Gospell, shal liue of the Gospel? |
A09445 | and should not a man looke about him, afore he come there? |
A09445 | and then changing the number, he saith: Who shal goe for vs? |
A09445 | if wee heare the voice of God any more, wee shall dye: for what fleshe euer hard the voyce of the liuing God& liued? |
A09445 | or to him, who when thy health is lost, can tell thee how to get it againe? |
A09445 | or who shall be sent to such a Parish? |
A09445 | so can not Angels be honoured, vnlesse they be made Gods, or Sauiours, or Mediators? |
A09445 | surely, that burning fire shal consume thē? |
A09445 | they approach to the burning Bush, with their shooes on their feete: that is, into Gods presence in their sinnes: what shall come of it in the ende? |
A09445 | were they not all polluted? |
A09445 | will nothing serue him, but the Crowne and Scepter? |
A09445 | yes, all in some measure: and was not he grieued at them all? |
A45328 | & c. how shall they, whose mouthes, hearts, hands, are full of sin and filthiness, be admitted, or accepted under the Gospel? |
A45328 | 7. Who goeth a Warfare at any time at his own Charges? |
A45328 | 8. where he proves, that he doth not onely confirm his Position by humane Arguments and Examples, but by the Law of God also; Say I these as a man? |
A45328 | ? |
A45328 | All things are common amongst friends? |
A45328 | And does not this sad condition call for A ● istry of Reconciliation? |
A45328 | And if the wise God thought this way the best to maintain his Ministers, who shall reprove him? |
A45328 | And if they say, true men shall be taught of the Lord, but it shall be by the means of men, then why are not we as fit to teach as they? |
A45328 | And so consequently what is the sust ● ntation, and nourishment of the body, to that of the soul? |
A45328 | And what good commander is thers, but will encourage, vindicate, embolden, and reward his faithfull Souldiers in and for their faithfull service? |
A45328 | Are these the fruits of so much patience and love? |
A45328 | Are these the returns of so many incomes from above? |
A45328 | As if he had said, can any one be delighted with meat that has not been seasoned with salt? |
A45328 | Behold the salve? |
A45328 | Behold the ● ore? |
A45328 | Degenerate Ministers are hardly cured; for what remains with which they may be restored and seasoned? |
A45328 | Do I fortifie my cause with humane reason and examples onely? |
A45328 | Do not poor means make poor Ministers? |
A45328 | Do we thus require the Lord, a people foolish and unwise? |
A45328 | Do wretched and godlesse men deprive and defraud us of temporall rewards? |
A45328 | Doth any one curse him? |
A45328 | Egyptians? |
A45328 | For how can a man be more glorious, then by being made the glory of Christ? |
A45328 | For so says the test, when they heard this, they sayd, Men and Brethen, what shall we doe? |
A45328 | For what end? |
A45328 | For what man will forsake, the plowmen, the Shepheards, the Stewards, which himself sets a work? |
A45328 | For, VVho goeth to warre at his own charges? |
A45328 | For, who almost would be so bold, as to tax the vices, or reprove the corrupt manners of those, from whom they received dayly gratuities? |
A45328 | Hath not the poverty of Clergy- men begotten ignorance, and ignorance brought forth contempt? |
A45328 | He fell on this face, and said, Art thou that my Lord Elisah? |
A45328 | He was unwearied in his doing, and invincible in his su ● fering: How many Cities and Countreys did he enlighten with the Go ● pel? |
A45328 | How can they be popish, which were paid thousands of years before any such beast as a Pope did spring up? |
A45328 | How shall be teach well that lives ill; or season others, who is himself altogether unsavoury? |
A45328 | How shall he spare the haters and despisers both of his Ministers and Ministry? |
A45328 | How shall they preach except they be sent? |
A45328 | If stipends be given to the bad, why not much rather to the good? |
A45328 | If the false Apostles and Seducers, who devour you, receive things necessary, then, why may not we who propagate the Gospel of Christ? |
A45328 | Is not God allwayes like himself? |
A45328 | Is there no God, but in the still voice of your spirituall conceivements and Revelations now adayes? |
A45328 | Is there no light in the Word of God? |
A45328 | Let there be found out a more sufficient and certain and honourable maintenance, and who will contend for Tythes? |
A45328 | Loe here the usefullnesse and necessity of a Gospell- Ministry? |
A45328 | Now what is either more profitable or more pleasant than light? |
A45328 | Oh that some Hercules will oppose himself to this many headed Monster? |
A45328 | Or any thing please a judicious palate that is unseasoned? |
A45328 | Or who feedeth a flock and eateth not of the milk of the flock? |
A45328 | Or, saith not the ● aw the same also? |
A45328 | Shall Clodius condemn Adulterie; Or Catiline Cethegus, worse then hee? |
A45328 | Shall not the like causes produce the like effect? |
A45328 | The Proposition is indefinite, and that is as large as an universal one, should live, but how? |
A45328 | They that fear the hatred, or reproaches of the world, will ● oon faint, and flagge? |
A45328 | Thou that abhorrest Idols, committest thou Sacriledge? |
A45328 | Thou that abhorrest false Gods, doest thou rob the true one, which is worse? |
A45328 | Thus give unto them double honour, that is, honour them fully and freely? |
A45328 | To what purpose are all these Names, and honourable Titles, if there be no such Order, as Ministers, in the Church? |
A45328 | VVhat is the cha ● ● e to the wheat? |
A45328 | VVho goeth a warfare at his own charges? |
A45328 | VVill a man rob God? |
A45328 | What are false Prophecies to the truth of God? |
A45328 | Who planteth a Vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit of it? |
A45328 | Who will teach them for nought? |
A45328 | Why stand ye gazing up into heaven for new discoveries? |
A45328 | and yet, if the beauty of their feet must have an admiration borrowed to express them, by what shall we express the beauty of their faces? |
A45328 | eternal things excell fading, flitting, perishing, transitory vani ● ies? |
A45328 | how could the beauty of them be exprest more fully, than by such an elegant particle of admiration? |
A45328 | or, whether are your eyes out that ye can not receive it? |
A45328 | they may drag any soul to hell with themselves: What weeds of Heresie do they plant? |
A45328 | what more heavy doome shall they undergoe, that scorn, contemn, reproach the Ministers of Christ? |
A45328 | what seeds of discord do they sowe? |
A45328 | what stones of stumbling do they lay? |
A45342 | ( i) how contemptible and inglorious? |
A45342 | ( i) is it the cause of sin? |
A45342 | 17. and if so, is it likely that hee would desire a toleration to sinne? |

A45342 | 6 3. but thou O Lord, how long? |
A45342 | Are they Israelites? |
A45342 | Beware lest any man spoile you through Philosophy; but what Philosophy doth the Apostle mean? |
A45342 | But against learning would they blaterate, Unlesse themselves were so illiterate? |
A45342 | But there are many errors amongst Philosophers, Poets, Heathens,& c. what shall we doe in such a case? |
A45342 | But what if Oratory be thus abused to calumniating, should there be therefore no Oratory at all? |
A45342 | But what is the summe of Mr Websters desires, and what would hee have us to studie? |
A45342 | But what shall we then call you? |
A45342 | But why doth hee make such hast in his wrath against Reason, to come to Argumentation? |
A45342 | Gen. 4 6. why art thou wroth? |
A45342 | God hath given them the spirit of slumber, what''s that? |
A45342 | He tels us, that Aristotle was but a man, and so might erre; and is not Mr Webster a ma ●? |
A45342 | He''ll ● ither find a way, or fra ● ● e you one out of his empty sconce? |
A45342 | How glorious was the King to day? |
A45342 | How shall they call on him, on whom they have not beleeved? |
A45342 | I am that I am; what''s that? |
A45342 | Ioshua 1.9, 10, 13. have not I commanded the? |
A45342 | Lastly, To all that in the residue of the Chapter, he objects or cavils against Logick, may that serve, which before was answered? |
A45342 | Nonne aspicimus quanto auro& argentosuffarc ● natus exierit de Aegypto Cyprianus Dr. sua ● ● ssimus,& Martyr beatissimus? |

A45342 | Peace on earth, to men of good will; but what saies the Originall? |
A45342 | Quid facit cum Psalterio Horatius? |

A45342 | Remember O Lord, how I have walked before thee, in truth; what''s that? |
A45342 | See how well Satan hath performed his promise to man, is not he become like one of us? |
A45342 | The Prophet would never have bid him goe in peace, had he begged for a toleration in Idolatry; for what peace can there be to the wicked? |
A45342 | The Scripture also is ful of Rhetorick, many Tropes and Figures are there, what abundance of Metonymies, Ironies, Hyperboles, Hypallages? |
A45342 | Thus when David would abate himselfe, he cries, who am I? |
A45342 | WHat How? |
A45342 | WHo''s this, R. O. a Psychopannychist, Rather the la ● e Pamphleting Mortalist? |
A45342 | What is this but to destroy the Magistracie? |
A45342 | What need, say they, o''th''two fold Athens now, Or Mothers Breasts, when we past children grow? |
A45342 | When a Text admits of several interpretations, which must I chuse? |
A45342 | When one had made a long O ● ation in the praise of Hercules, ne asked hi ●, Quis illum vi ● u ● e ● avit? |

A79888 | ( who lived about four hundred years ago) were not the first that pleaded for these alienations made by the Pope? |
A79888 | 12 Whether these Scriptures do not concern Christians, as well as they did the Jews? |
A79888 | 6,& c. Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to forbear Working? |
A79888 | 8, 9, 10,& c. Will a man rob God? |
A79888 | And as maintenance to the persons of Ministers, in the fifth Commandement? |
A79888 | And do not such positive Precepts( if unrepealed) binde all to the end of the world? |
A79888 | And how little will he think himself eased hereby? |
A79888 | And how many men fall from their former principles of honesty? |
A79888 | And how will this curtail the Ministers share? |
A79888 | And they which wait at the Altar, are made partakers with the Altar? |
A79888 | And whether they were not the first that to justifie the Popes Proceedings, pleaded that Tithes were Jewish? |
A79888 | And who then shall take course to enforce such to pay? |
A79888 | As they tend to preserve the publike worship of God, in the second and fourth Commandement? |
A79888 | Besides, may it not be supposed, that they which spend of other mens purses, are like to cut large thougs out of others hides? |
A79888 | Do ye not know that they which minister about holy things, live of the things of the Temple? |
A79888 | Doth God take care for Oxen? |
A79888 | Have we not power to eat and to drink? |
A79888 | How will they be enforced to bribe, and pay for expedition, or to be fobbe ● off with base and clipt money? |
A79888 | If the Countryman shall pay a rate in money for his Tithes, will it not come far more hardly from him? |
A79888 | If things should rise in the price the next hundred of years as they have done the last, how shall Ministers be then able to live upon these stipends? |
A79888 | Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? |
A79888 | Say I these things as a man? |
A79888 | Thou that abhorrest Idols, dost thou commit Sacriledge? |
A79888 | WHether the Ministry of England hath not as good a Propriety in Tithes, as Noblemen, Gentlemen and Free- holders have in their Lands? |
A79888 | Were not Patrons at the first made choice of, to defend the Ministers right against the fraud and injustice of the people? |
A79888 | What trouble, journeys and expences will this put them to? |
A79888 | Whether Tithes can be called Antichristian, which were paid long before Antichrists time? |
A79888 | Whether Tithes, as an honouring of God, be not enjoyned in the first Commandment? |
A79888 | Whether all or most of the Arguments bent against the morality of Tithes, do not equally militate against the morality of the Sabbath? |
A79888 | Whether it is not against the light of Nature, and custom of all Nations, to disannull the Will of the dead? |
A79888 | Whether to speak of a sufficient maintenance without Tithes, be not a meer fancy, that never was, nor( as I believe) ever will be brought into action? |
A79888 | Who goeth to warfare any time at his own charges? |
A79888 | Who planteth a vineyard and eateth not of the fruit thereof? |
A79888 | Why hast thou( said Peter) kept back part of the price of the Land? |
A79888 | Will not such as bear the bag, and upon whom the Ministers must depend for their subsistance, Lord it over them with pride and contempt enough? |
A79888 | Yea would they not be more burdened by how much their Tything would be looked more narrowly into? |
A79888 | and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? |
A79888 | and will it not discourage all men for the future from works of Piety and Charity when they see them thus perverted? |

A26780 | Did not Goodness and Mercy follow you, and should it not then be had in thankful Remembrance? |
A26780 | Did not they pitch their Tents where you pitched yours? |
A26780 | Do not many of you owe even your very Souls to him under God? |
A26780 | Do we deserve it? |
A26780 | Do you avouch God ● … n Jesus Christ this Day to be your God? |
A26780 | Do you mean to be Zealous and Faithful in the Defence of Truth and Unity, against Error and Schism? |
A26780 | Had not the Angels charge over you? |
A26780 | Hath he counted you Faithful, putting you into the Ministry? |
A26780 | Hath he promised that there shall be always a safe and speedy delivery? |
A26780 | Have not we grieved this good Man''s Spirit? |
A26780 | He is good, and doth good; and should we not love him, and rest in our love to him? |
A26780 | He would say to them sometimes as Christ to his Disciples, Have ye understood all these things? |
A26780 | His Prayer under this Providence was, shew me, Lord, shew me wherefore thou contendest with me; have I over- boasted, overlov''d, over- priz''d? |
A26780 | How forceable are right words? |
A26780 | How much better is it to lay up in store now a good Foundation for time to come, and to lay hold on Eternal Life? |
A26780 | How often did he inculcate this upon them? |
A26780 | If God be for us, who can be against us? |
A26780 | If he that gives takes, and it is but his own, why should we say, What dost thou? |
A26780 | In the Furnace again? |
A26780 | Is it not enough that we be dealt with according to the manner of Men? |
A26780 | Is not this a brand pluck''d out of the Fire? |
A26780 | Is this thy kindness to thy Friend? |
A26780 | It may be, here are some that have been Drunkards, Swearers, Scoffers at Godliness, Sabbath- breakers, and what not? |
A26780 | Labouring to perswade one to forgive an injury that was done him; he urged this, Are you not a Christian? |
A26780 | Lord, what is man? |
A26780 | Must the Earth be forsaken for us, or the Rock removed out of its place? |
A26780 | No Life at all in the Duty, many Wandrings; If my Prayers were written down, and my vain Thoughts interlined, What incoherent Nonsense would there be? |
A26780 | Our great Enquiry is, What shall we render? |
A26780 | Shall I not seek rest for thee? |
A26780 | Some that have heard him read a Chapter with this thought; how will he make such a Chapter as this useful to us? |
A26780 | The Country( saith he in his Diary) takes notice of it, and what then shall I render? |
A26780 | The Three Questions which he advised People to put to themselves in self Examination before the Sacrament, were, What am I? |
A26780 | The Vows of God upon me lye; Should such a Man as I am fly? |
A26780 | Though he be Almighty, and can do every thing, yet this he can not do, he can not deny himself, nor be worse than his Word: But what is his Word? |
A26780 | Thus he judged not, and why then should he be judged? |
A26780 | Was not every step you took hedg''d about with special Providence? |
A26780 | We both of us send you our most affectionate Love and Blessing; Blessing? |
A26780 | What are your Ends in undertaking the Work and Calling of a Minister? |
A26780 | What are your purposes, as to Diligence and Industry in this Calling? |
A26780 | What do you intend to do when the Lord shall alter your condition, and bring a Family under your charge? |
A26780 | What else is it thou wantest? |
A26780 | What have I done? |
A26780 | What if Troubles, Persecutions, and Discouragements arise, will you hold out to the end notwithstanding? |
A26780 | What is your Perswasion of the Truth of the Reformed Religion? |
A26780 | What loveliness in us? |
A26780 | What not in him? |
A26780 | What shall I render? |
A26780 | What shall we then say to these things? |
A26780 | Where Mercy goes before, should not Duty follow after? |
A26780 | Who can so soon be aware of the Day- break, or of the springing up of the Seed Sown? |
A26780 | Will you in Humility and Meekness submit to Admonition and Discipline? |
A26780 | Your Children shall ask you in Time to come; what mean you by this Service? |
A26780 | and what do I want? |
A26780 | are they not wonderful? |
A26780 | here''s Bread to strengthen thee; Art thou sad? |
A26780 | here''s Wine to comfort thee: What is it thou standest in need of, a Pardon? |
A26780 | that there shall be no Iabez, no Benoni? |
A26780 | they strangers in a strange Land, and not we? |
A55393 | 14. how faintly and impertinently do they speak? |
A55393 | And how poor an evidence is this to prove, that these Prophets could not foretell future events, because it is not mentioned in this Chapter? |
A55393 | And in regard of this work, it is that he cries out, Who is sufficient for these things? |
A55393 | And what work is more difficult and important than that of preaching, to do it as becomes the Gospel? |
A55393 | But what if this proportion be meant of Almes- giving? |
A55393 | Can any man dispence with anothers wrapping his Talent in a napkin? |
A55393 | Can the Aethiopian change his skin? |
A55393 | Hereby the plea is removed to another Court, and the Question lies here, Whether elsewhere there be any prohibition? |
A55393 | How shall they preach except they be sent? |
A55393 | I left thee in Creet to ordaine,& c. what was he left there to give an adjunct of their call? |
A55393 | I now Quaere, Whether in this case the Apostolical Office had been null or no? |
A55393 | I trow not: Nay they preached when they were forbidden; and why? |
A55393 | If extraordinary gifts might be desired,( as our Brethren say) why not an extraordinary Office? |
A55393 | If they would have a fit parallel, take that of a Magistrate; What if a Justice of the peace request another man to sit for him upon the bench? |
A55393 | In this sense also Christ bids us pray the Lord, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest: How send them? |
A55393 | Is it not in the Master also? |
A55393 | It is strange he should leave him to a worke no way peculiar to his office, and a worke which a brother might performe as effectually as an officer? |
A55393 | Let me take the boldnesse to question whether the Gospel Ministers are an inferiour order to the high Priest or no? |
A55393 | Nay indeed upon further search these will be found to be much coincident: How can they preach unless they be sent? |
A55393 | Or if a man hath gifts to rule a State, must he take upon him that work, before he be called to it? |
A55393 | Say that all must endeavour to be teachers, what then? |
A55393 | Sent, by whom? |
A55393 | Shall we therefore conclude they were not ordained? |
A55393 | So Tully, Quis te damnatior? |
A55393 | THE third and last question is this, Whether ordination may be done by the people? |
A55393 | THey Question, What is meant by the Ministry? |
A55393 | The Question is not, whether preaching or baptizing be greater in regard of the dignity of the work? |
A55393 | The second branch is this? |
A55393 | They say, Preaching is no act of Authority, for if a man preach to Heathens, where no Church is; How can he usurp authority over the Church? |
A55393 | Thus Christ often said, that he was sent, in Answer to that Question of his enemies, By what authority doest thou these things? |
A55393 | Very true, Deacons were sent and had mission: What advantage can our Brethren pick out thence? |
A55393 | What if Paul had come to a place where he was not desired to preach,( which often was his case) was he then free from his necessity of preching? |
A55393 | What if a man be prudent and very fit to manage the Deacons work, and to distribute the Church- alms? |
A55393 | What if you meet with nothing that convinceth you, that this was an ordinary Presbytery? |
A55393 | Whether Ministers are only Ministers to their particular Flocks? |
A55393 | Whether the Office of the Ministry be a relation to the Work of the Ministry, or to the Church? |
A55393 | Who knows not that the gift of Tongues, praediction, and infallible explication of the Scripture is ceased? |
A55393 | Will our Brethren then say, that others not desiring a man to exercise his gifts, will justifie him in the not exercising of it? |
A55393 | and Whether the title Minister, in its special and distinct acception may be applied to him? |
A55393 | and what then is it to be a solemn sign of a mans admission into the Church, but to be a solemn sign of his being a professor of the Name of Christ? |
A55393 | i. e. How can they do it lawfully? |
A55393 | may he do it? |
A55393 | must he undertake it( upon pretence of exercising his gifts) before he be called to it? |
A55393 | must they needs be publick teachers? |
A55393 | or a man gifted to rule? |
A86287 | 124. where he affirmes, that some did not forbear to cry, what needs this cost to decore a superstitious Relique? |
A86287 | 8 Is not this like to prove a brave historian think you, who professeth openly that he writes one thing and intends another? |
A86287 | Admit it to be so conceived and said by the Observator, how doth the Preacher goe about to prove the contrary? |
A86287 | And now what new impulsive will he give us in exchange for the other? |
A86287 | And why all this? |
A86287 | And why all this? |
A86287 | Antient, laudable, and tolerable, who can wish for more? |
A86287 | Auditum admisse risum teneatis amici? |
A86287 | But Sir, who told you in good earnest, that his Majesty either drew the sword, or took up the Bucklers in that quarrell, or on that occasion? |
A86287 | But Sir, who told you that King James communicated with his Houses of parliament, in the Breach with Spain? |
A86287 | But Sir, without any of your whim- whams, where find you any such thing, or any thing that looks that way in the Observator? |
A86287 | But dares he stand to this? |
A86287 | But good Sir do you speak in earnest? |
A86287 | But how doth he weaken this assurance, and abate this confidence? |
A86287 | But how is this dependency proved? |
A86287 | But if it be not so, as indeed it is not, where lieth the malice or ridiculousnesse which the Pulpit rang of? |
A86287 | But then admitting fourthly, that the Bishop parted with the Seal in August, yet what makes this to our Authors justification? |
A86287 | But what if Mr. Howels intelligence fail him, who though a very honest man pretends not to the Spirit of infallibility, as our Author doth? |
A86287 | But what makes this to the Arminian and Remonstrant partie? |
A86287 | But what makes this unto the purpose? |
A86287 | But will the Pamphleter stand to this, will he stand to any thing? |
A86287 | Can any man hear this fine stuffe and abstain from laughter? |
A86287 | Can any man inferre from hence by the Rules of Logick, that reason of State and King- craft will not tolerate the Arminiaus in a Commonwealth? |
A86287 | Doth the Pamphleter deny any part of this? |
A86287 | For if he spake nothing all the while, how can the Pamphleter assure us, what his judgment was, or upon whom it did depend? |
A86287 | For mark the Argument in Bishop Wrens Articles, framed for the Diocess of Norwich( Anno 1636. why was that left out?) |
A86287 | For who but the King, that granted the Commission, should declare the impulsive causes to it? |
A86287 | Have I betray''d the State To Fire, or Fury, or some newer Fate? |
A86287 | Have I renounc''d my faith? |
A86287 | Have I some former practice undertook By Poyson, Shot, sharp Knife, or sharper look To kill my King? |
A86287 | How doth he make this good in the Bishop of VVinchester? |
A86287 | How it is possible to escape the Observators lash? |
A86287 | How so? |
A86287 | How so? |
A86287 | How so? |
A86287 | How so? |
A86287 | How so? |
A86287 | If so they seemed in his own sense, why doth he not declare how, and by whom his sense was altered in that point? |
A86287 | Let us indulge him this also for his former kindness, yet what makes this unto the purpose? |
A86287 | Mr. Pym ▪ should be conjured from the Royal Sepulchres like Samuel by the Witch of E ● dor, to bear witness to it? |
A86287 | None like him? |
A86287 | Not undertaking to warrant the circumstance but the thing? |
A86287 | Presbyters then are subject unto censure; but to whose censure are they subject? |
A86287 | Quid interest utrum velim fieri, an gaudeam factum? |
A86287 | This is good Fish indeed if it were well fryed, but who shall have the cooking of it? |
A86287 | This is the information, but what Proofs have they of it? |
A86287 | Thus do I hear our Author say, but I find the contrary, and then, quid verba audiam cum facta videam? |
A86287 | Well, what saith he? |
A86287 | What all Expositors, all without exception? |
A86287 | What meaneth else, this bleating of the Sheep in mine ears, and the lowing of the Oxe which I hear? |
A86287 | What saith the Pamphleter to this? |
A86287 | What saith the Pamphleter to this? |
A86287 | What saith the Pamphleter to this? |
A86287 | What saith the Pamphleter to this? |
A86287 | What shall an honest Historian do in such a case? |
A86287 | What should a poore man doe to get a good word from him, if this will not do it? |
A86287 | What think you my most precious Author, where is the creeping aud cringing, the crawling and crouching which your Pamphlet speaks of? |
A86287 | What think you now on the whole matter, my most precious Pamphleter? |
A86287 | What think you of the Author of the vulgar Latine, a man as learned I believe, as any of those whom you have consulted in the point? |
A86287 | What, all or altogether against King Charles? |
A86287 | Where finds he in the Observator, that the Lord Primate advised the King to sign the Bill for the Earl of Straffords death? |
A86287 | Why so? |
A86287 | Why so? |
A86287 | With pride and insolence enough, parturiant montes& c. you have shewed us the mountain gentle Sir, but pray you Sir where is the mouse? |
A86287 | dar ● s he stand to any thing? |
A86287 | finds he nothing faulty in the Story of the Observator? |
A86287 | is not this an inveighing against King James, and a detracting from his King- craft? |
A86287 | makes it not to his further condemnation rather? |
A86287 | or basely sold Salvation, or my Loyalty for Gold? |
A86287 | or wh ● r ● else should they be declared but in that Commission? |
A86287 | where that servility of carriage which made his Lordship merry at the sight thereof? |
A54793 | And he was truly angry, you say? |
A54793 | And therefore he makes this Confession; to what end? |
A54793 | And what then? |
A54793 | As how? |
A54793 | As how? |
A54793 | As how? |
A54793 | As how? |
A54793 | Begat, and Begat? |
A54793 | But how does this justifie the Ruining of Zedechia? |
A54793 | But how will you help it? |
A54793 | But what need of all this? |
A54793 | Could an Angel have said more? |
A54793 | Could ye blame her for Plotting( though she absolutely deny''d it) against a Person that kept her from the Enjoyment of her Kingdom? |
A54793 | Did not Jehu and Jehoiadah cause Jezebel and Athaliah to be put to death? |
A54793 | Do they walk in the Clouds? |
A54793 | Do you believe this to be a Hyperbole, or no? |
A54793 | Do you know Sir, what the Lady is, or what her Vertues are? |
A54793 | Does he? |
A54793 | Does not the Observator and Heraclitus tell yee so? |
A54793 | Govern your Passion, Sir, d''ye understand Heraldry? |
A54793 | Ha''ye done now? |
A54793 | Had he so? |
A54793 | Harp no more upon that string? |
A54793 | Has your Observator been all this while observing, and observed none of''em yet? |
A54793 | How Friend Priestlove? |
A54793 | How could this be? |
A54793 | How should we see the Gentlemens Parts, if they hid their Lights under a Bushel; that is to say, if they did not Print their Sermons? |
A54793 | How strangely the Case is alter''d? |
A54793 | I must confess, I would not have a man in an Assize Sermon tell the Judges a Story of the good Samaritan? |
A54793 | I would fain know how far the League between Hannibal, and the King of Macedon will affect them? |
A54793 | In like- manner, what have they to do with Associatians and Addresses, as they are the Disputes of State? |
A54793 | Interest, you know, Sir, has Govern''d the World, how long d''ye think? |
A54793 | No? |
A54793 | Not so hasty — For will you prefer a Brace of Quacks to a whole Colledge of able Physitians? |
A54793 | Now for down- right Barbarisme, Lord, when wilt thou amend this gear? |
A54793 | Now why must Grand- Juries, and Petty- Juries be put to the trouble to vex and torment such men as these, and deter them from their good intentions? |
A54793 | Or what would you have him do with those Souls that have commited themselves to his charge, and are so well satisfi''d of his conduct to Heaven? |
A54793 | Priestl What should the People follow them for, like a Company of Phanaticks, as they are? |
A54793 | Then he''s high enough; what need he Play the Fool, for Church- Preferment? |
A54793 | Very honestly spoken, what think you? |
A54793 | Well — have ye done now? |
A54793 | Well — what think you of it now? |
A54793 | Well, but how did he do it? |
A54793 | Well, but where are the Culverin, and the Demiculverin? |
A54793 | Well, but where are these Presbyterian Plotters? |
A54793 | Well, — but what say you to the Sermon it self? |
A54793 | What They d''ye mean? |
A54793 | What a happy thing''t is, to hear an A- la- mode Sermon? |
A54793 | What care some Men for that? |
A54793 | What d''ye mean by Serving the King Substantially, and to the purpose? |
A54793 | What d''ye talk? |
A54793 | What if they should tell you that the Moon were made of Green- Cheese, would you believe''em? |
A54793 | What is such a one? |
A54793 | What is such a one? |
A54793 | What of all this? |
A54793 | What then? |
A54793 | What then? |
A54793 | What''s here but a Zealous Complement? |
A54793 | What''s that to you, if the Gentleman had a peculiar Kindness for Valerius Maximus? |
A54793 | What''s that? |
A54793 | What? |
A54793 | Where have you pick''d up that? |
A54793 | Where was his Christian Charity? |
A54793 | Which way? |
A54793 | Who are the Fanaticks? |
A54793 | Who shall be Judge of that? |
A54793 | Why do they not pay them? |
A54793 | Why dost thou stay and pause? |
A54793 | Why now then let me ask thee, What is the Meaning of all this Clutter and Hurly- burly? |
A54793 | Why should you be angry at this? |
A54793 | Why then I''le propose a way — What think ye of a National Council? |
A54793 | Why, what Exceptions do you make against their Quotations? |
A54793 | Why, what if it did produce him Twenty broad Pieces, or so? |
A54793 | Will ye blame him for his gratitude? |
A54793 | Will you hear his own words? |
A54793 | Would it not be fine sport, to hear the Pulpits ring with the Habeas Corpus Act, or the Statute of Jeofails? |
A54793 | You will not let him read the Liturgy of England in a Church, where would you have him read it? |
A54793 | Your Crape- Gown men, d''ye mean? |
A54793 | and do not the streets ring of their Plots? |
A54793 | are they Men or Mice? |
A54793 | because Tertullian disallows it? |
A54793 | or have they got every one a Gyges''s Ring in their Pockets? |
A54793 | or how far it will operate upon a gaping Country Fellow, to bid him not Swear in vain? |
A54793 | upon the top of the Monument? |
A54793 | were there none of them neither? |
A54793 | what then? |
A54793 | what to Forty One? |
A54793 | — But what sort of things are these Phanaticks? |
A54793 | — Licet, ut volo, vivere; non sim Liberior Bruto? |
A54793 | — Was it not well now the Parliament was not at Thetford? |
A54793 | — Well make your best on''t — for I am now proceeding to other matter — Can you Preach before the Artillery Company? |
A54793 | — Well, but would you now Preach acutely among the Lawyers? |
A54793 | — What then? |
A45336 | 13. and cryed down Moses and Aaron; the Lord shewed a dreadful Judgement on them and their consorts; Why? |
A45336 | 14. Who made me a Iudge? |
A45336 | 14. Who made me a judge? |
A45336 | 4 The Question still will bee, whether Christ ta ● ght publiquely before hee was thirty, and before hee was baptized, or after? |
A45336 | 42, 46. and to teach and preach in the Synagogues so commonly as hee did? |
A45336 | 5. Who is Paul? |
A45336 | Admit she had preached, yet where was it? |
A45336 | All that have gifts must use them, true; but where? |
A45336 | And if once you found Christ walking amongst us, how is it that yo do now leave us? |
A45336 | And if we must give our selves wholly to Reading, where is the Nayling? |
A45336 | And might not the Prophet have alledged this, and that with a better pretence and colour then they? |
A45336 | And then asketh the Question, Are all Apostles? |
A45336 | And they i. e. the Priests and Levites, which Iehosaphat sent, taught the People; How? |
A45336 | Are all Prophets? |
A45336 | Are all Prophets? |
A45336 | Are our times such? |
A45336 | Are there any more? |
A45336 | Are we less, and not rather more reformed then we were? |
A45336 | Are ye holier and wiser then Christ? |
A45336 | Art thou guilty, or not guilty? |
A45336 | But how shal they attaine this? |
A45336 | But what said the Gifted Brother to this Argument? |
A45336 | But when hath a man a Call? |
A45336 | But where say they, do you prove this? |
A45336 | But who are they that have this gift? |
A45336 | But you will acknowledge them to be a Reformed Church? |
A45336 | But you will say as Hazael; Are we dogs, that we should hold such errors as these? |
A45336 | By whom wilt thou be tried? |
A45336 | Call the rest of the Reformed Churches; the Church of Helvetia, Bohemia, Ausperg,& c. What can you say against this new- found Officer? |
A45336 | Can you say any more against them? |
A45336 | Did you ever read of true conversion ordinarily in a false Church? |
A45336 | Do you know what you say? |
A45336 | Doth not the Apostle from this very ground, argue the truth of his Apostleship? |
A45336 | Doth not the Prophet seem to say the quite contrary? |
A45336 | Have you any more evidence besides these Ordinances, to batter the Tower of Babel? |
A45336 | Have you called a full Iury? |
A45336 | He hath set[ some] in the Church,& c. Are all Apostles? |
A45336 | Hence the Apostle tells us he was i made a Minister of the Church; but how? |
A45336 | How can these be seen and known, but by Preaching? |
A45336 | How can you call it a Scotish covenant, when''t was ratified, framed, sealed, and confirmed by both Kingdoms? |
A45336 | How is that proved? |
A45336 | How shall a man bee able to Analize and open many obscure phrases in Scripture, without Logick, Rhetorick, Tongues? |
A45336 | How shall a man bee able to preserve the Truth in its purity, against Heretickes, without Learning? |
A45336 | How shall they preach, except they be sent? |
A45336 | How? |
A45336 | I answer therefore by way of concession, and grant that the Apostle forbids women and enjoyns men to preach: but what men? |
A45336 | I shall only adde the Fryar that would prove God made ten Worlds, from the words of Christ, Annon decem facti sunt mundi? |
A45336 | I will that thou ordain Elders, What need Paul leave Titus in Crete to ordaine men, if every gifted brother may preach without Ordination? |
A45336 | I: Call in Mr. Cotton: Vo ● ● avez Mr. Cotton: Do you approve of these mens Preaching? |
A45336 | If Paul kept a double Calling( say they) why may not we Nayl and Preach, Patch and Preach, Weave and Preach? |
A45336 | If no Reformed Church did ever re- Baptize such as were Baptized by them, why should Ministers be re- ordained, more then re- Baptized? |
A45336 | If the presence of Christ, both of his power and grace be with us, why will you deny us your presence? |
A45336 | Inclamant, vociferantur, Universitates vestrae sunt universae pestes, Ergò versae sint universae: Seminaria Pietatis? |
A45336 | Is it not apparent that our Ministers are sent by God ▪ because their Embassage is made successful by God for the good of Souls? |

A33332 | Have you forgotten the treacherous plots that were laid by him for your Head? |
A33332 | He asked one of them, Who is that ye mean? |
A33332 | He asked them, what was their names? |
A33332 | He suspecting them to be the men that had sworn to take away his life, spake to them thus; Friends, what is your business? |
A33332 | He used not to trouble himself with reckonings and accounts, but would sometimes ask his man when he came from the Market, how he sold Corn? |
A33332 | He would often say in his sicknesse, I am not afraid to look death in the face; I can say, death, where is thy sting? |
A33332 | He would say to those that complained of losses and crosses, that which Eliphaz did to Job, Do the consolations of God seem small to you? |
A33332 | Here is a man opens not his lips, and yet he speaketh? |
A33332 | How exceeding mercifull is my God unto me? |
A33332 | How shall he take care of the Church of God? |

A33332 | Then did the Duke of Guise from below ask if the businesse were done? |
A33332 | Then the Admirall turning to de Cosse, said, Do you not remember, Sir, what I told you of late? |
A33332 | There was a Soothsayer that told Agathocles he should be slain the next moneth: who asked, How long he thought he should live after him? |
A33332 | They assuring him, they intended really the setting of him at liberty; He asked what they thought would become of them? |
A33332 | To whom he answered, Truly Assurance is to be had, and what have we been doing all this while? |
A33332 | Was he made miserable? |
A33332 | What an unworthy thing is it Sir, that an Oath so solemnly sworn, should be so much slighted and neglected? |

A33332 | When towards his end he was asked, how he did? |
A33332 | While he was preparing to go with them, he heard a Post ride in, asking hastily, Is the Prisoner yet alive? |
A33332 | Who am I? |
A33332 | Wilt thou pray for a man that is damned? |
A33332 | and am I in my calling or way? |
A33332 | and are you so credulous as to believe his oaths, when he sweareth that he minded no treachery? |
A33332 | and divers other great Cities, both of Normandy and Brittany, sought my favour and protection? |
A33332 | and do you expect the full forgivenesse of all your sins by the shedding of his blood for you? |
A33332 | and what do I here? |
A33332 | and where should Master Preston find another shelter? |
A33332 | and whether the Admirall knew of it? |
A33332 | and withall he sent for the Queen- Mother, who was scarce entred, when the King with a disquiet mind( as he seemed) said, What a mischief? |
A33332 | are not ye the men that have sworn to take away my life? |
A33332 | do you not yet know that the only name of the Admirall can prevail more for you then a great Army without him? |
A33332 | for to deserve so sharp an opposition, but envy moved them? |
A33332 | que nous dira cest enfant ioy? |
A33332 | that he thought ill of Religion, and therefore he required him to tell him what he thought of the Mass, which the Calvinists spake so much against? |
A33332 | to which she made answer, that she gat her living by her work, and teaching of a few young Children; after that, What Children she had? |
A33332 | whereunto she answered, she knew not; then, What meanes of Maintenance she had, and from whom? |
A39232 | A day for a man to afflict his soul? |
A39232 | And Mesha King of Moab was a Sheep- master, and rendered unto the King of Israel an hundred thousand Lambs: and what follows? |
A39232 | And full of pride and vanity, though his House stands not upon crutches, and though his Chimney is to be seen a foot above the Thatch? |
A39232 | And is not Patience better than the great Tithes, and Contentedness to be preferred before large Fees and Customs? |
A39232 | And must he needs be void of all Grace, though he has a shilling in his Purse after the Rates be cross''d? |
A39232 | And now, shall we think that such Employments as these can any way consist with due reverence, or tolerable respect from a Parish? |
A39232 | And was not the condition of most of his Disciples very mean? |
A39232 | And what though Churches stand at a little further distance? |
A39232 | And who could expect less? |
A39232 | As for the rest, having exactly learned, Quid est Logica? |
A39232 | Bring no more vain oblations,& c. your New- Moons and your appointed Feasts my Soul hateth? |
A39232 | But art thou in good earnest my excellent Contriver? |
A39232 | But has it not gone very hard in all ages with the men of God? |
A39232 | But he answered and said, Who is my Mother? |
A39232 | But may not some say, is God altogether for new things? |
A39232 | But pray, why the Aqua- fortis of Tears? |
A39232 | But shall we debar Youth of such an innocent and harmless Recreation, of such a great quickner of parts, and promoter of sagacity? |
A39232 | But, can not a Clergy- man chuse rather to lie upon Feathers than an Hardle, but he must be idle, soft, and effeminate? |
A39232 | Do ye see, Sir, the same letter? |
A39232 | First then, our Saviour was in Aries; or else what means that of the Psalmist? |
A39232 | For one may desire but to know this one thing: In what profession shall that sort of Wit prove of advantage? |
A39232 | For, shall we think that any man that is not curs''d to uselesness, poverty, and misery, will be content with Twenty or Thirty pounds a year? |
A39232 | Here''s a very choice Armory: shall I shew you an Helmet of Salvation, a Shield or a Breast- plate of Faith? |
A39232 | How does she strut it, and swagger it over all the world, terrifying Princes, and despising Kings and Emperors? |
A39232 | How far to Lammas, or Offerings? |
A39232 | Is it not, that he slew a thousand of the Philistines with one new Iaw- bone? |
A39232 | Is it such a Fast that I have chosen? |
A39232 | Is it to bow down his head like a Bulrush? |
A39232 | May he not desire wholesome Food, and fresh Drink, unless he be a cheat, a Hypocrite and an Impostor? |
A39232 | May we venture them into the Desk to read Service? |
A39232 | Neither did the Apostles think of any such way: I wonder whom they take for a pattern? |
A39232 | Now, what a lucky discovery was this, that a man''s body should be so exactly like an Apple? |
A39232 | Now, what an admirable thing this is? |
A39232 | Now, what may not a Divine do, though but of ordinary parts, and unhappy education, with such learned helps and assistances as these? |
A39232 | Or of Cancer? |
A39232 | Or to be seated upon a soft and well grinded pouch of Meal? |
A39232 | Or will you please to walk in, and see some precious Stones? |
A39232 | Or, shall we trust them in some good Gentlemens houses, there to perform holy things? |
A39232 | Shall I fit you with a robe of roghteousness, or with a white Garment? |
A39232 | Sirs, What must I do to be saved? |
A39232 | Speak, what do you buy? |
A39232 | Suppose there should be one or so in the whole Church that understands somewhat besides English; shall not I think that he understands that better? |
A39232 | They sacrificed unto Devils, and to New- Gods, whom they knew not; to New- Gods, that came newly up: And when the Lord saw it he abhorred them? |
A39232 | Was not our Lord and Master, our Great and High Priest; and was not his fare low, and his life full of trouble? |
A39232 | Were not they notably pinch''d, and severely treated after him? |
A39232 | What a becoming thing is it, for him that serves at the Altar, to fill the Dung- cart in dry weather, and to heat the Oven, and pill Hemp in wet? |
A39232 | What a handsome shift a poor ingenious and frugal Divine will make, to take it by turns, and wear a Cassock one year, and a pair of Breeches another? |
A39232 | What an huge blaze he makes in the Church? |
A39232 | What are the People about Carlisle better''d by his Instructions and advice who lives at Dover? |
A39232 | What need I speak of Gemini? |
A39232 | What then shall we do with them, and where shall we dispose of them until they come to a holy Ripeness? |
A39232 | When shall we have another Christening and Cakes, and who is likely to marry or die? |
A39232 | Whence will come the next rejoycing Goose, or the next cheerful Basket of Apples? |
A39232 | Where went he to School? |
A39232 | Whose Sow has lately Pigg''d? |

A39232 | how would it rejoice their hearts, and encourage them in their Office? |
A39232 | quid est Ecclesia? |

A39232 | thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back? |
A39232 | what a happiness it is, and how much does a Youngster count himself beholding to the Stars, that should help him to such a taking Jest? |
A39232 | what do you by? |
A39232 | what is it you want? |
A39232 | when as the Psalmist says so plainly: What ailed thee, O thou Sea, that thou fleddest? |
A39232 | which of you by taking thought, can add one Cubit unto his stature? |
A26686 | * Fathers and yet will not give † bread to your Sons that ask it? |
A26686 | * Where there is no Vision, the People perish: and can you see them perish, when you have † bread enough, and to spare? |
A26686 | Abiathar was put out by two Princes, who were inspired by God,( and who knows but they may do it by extraordinary direction?) |
A26686 | And are they like to edify in holiness, who are apparently the venemous Enemies of Holiness? |
A26686 | And hath not God charged, that you † trade with your Talents? |
A26686 | And how strict is the command, That you take heed to your selves, and all the Flock, over whom the holy Ghost hath made you Bishops? |
A26686 | And if the Magistrate can not make your Relation to the Church to cease, how can he make the Duty of that Relation to cease? |
A26686 | And is a Fine or a Prison enough to stop the mouths of Gods Servants nowadays by the hundreds? |
A26686 | And shall not the necessity of Souls loose yours? |
A26686 | And shall the true Shepherds flee, as* soon as they see the Wolves, and leave the Sheep? |
A26686 | Are not you the Shepherds of the Flocks? |
A26686 | Are not you the † Physicians of the Churches? |
A26686 | Are we not required to continue in Doctrine, as ever we would save our selves, or them that hear us? |
A26686 | Bear with us, we beseech you; Are these things true, or are they not? |
A26686 | Brethren, let us deal plainly with God and with men; Why then is this great Duty now neglected? |
A26686 | Brethren, what will work upon us, if we will be quickned neither by the consideration of God''s Glory, nor our own? |
A26686 | But did they give over? |
A26686 | But how little is God glorified by you either way, while you sit still? |
A26686 | By what is the Gospel* more furthered than by the Bonds and Tribulations of its Ministers? |
A26686 | By † whom is God Glorified so much as by his suffering Witnesses? |
A26686 | Consider we beseech you, what are we for, but our Maker''s Ends? |
A26686 | Do not your † hearts tremble for the Ark of GOD? |
A26686 | Do you not know that too many of them hate it, both name and thing? |
A26686 | Do you say, This is a carnal Argument? |
A26686 | Do you see it falling, and yet withdraw your shoulders, and keep your hands in your bosomes? |
A26686 | Doth God charge us so deply, so dreadfully, and shall we think our selves discharged if man contradict it? |
A26686 | Fathers, where then are your Bowels? |
A26686 | Finally, Hath not the Lord ordained you to be his* Prophets? |
A26686 | For the Lord''s sake bear with us to be a little plain with you; Are your souls sensible of the Famine upon the Land, or are they not? |
A26686 | Further, Are not you they, that* are set for the defence and confirmation of the Gospel? |
A26686 | Hath Christ suffered for us, both as our † Surety, and Pattern? |
A26686 | Hath not God said, Necessity is laid on you, and VVO unto you if you preach not the Gespel? |
A26686 | Hath not our Lord told us, That he that hath set his hand to the Plough, and looketh back, is not fit for the Kingdom of God? |
A26686 | Hath the Gospel lost ground by them? |
A26686 | Have the former Saints thirsted for the Crown of Martyrdom, and* gloried in the Cross of Christ? |
A26686 | He that hath their hearts, shall have their prayers; and is that a little thing? |
A26686 | How hungry are their souls? |
A26686 | If not, why have we taught them? |
A26686 | If the Magistrate did not constitute and cause this Relation, how can he make it to cease? |
A26686 | If you are indeed sensible of the Famine, how can you keep in the Corn? |
A26686 | In a word, Are you † Nurses, and yet deny your Sucklings your brest? |
A26686 | Is it indeed † all joy to fall into divers temptations, and are we afraid to venture? |
A26686 | Is it not manifestly and mostly with[ Blind- Guides] with Spiteful Shepherds, or rather Wolves in Shepherds cloathing? |
A26686 | Is it not really* a Glorious Priviledge to suffer for Christ, and a † Badg of singular Honour? |
A26686 | Is it true indeed, shall the fear of Persecution make us desist from the work that God hath committed to us with such a dreadful charge to fulfil it? |
A26686 | Is this like Timothy † naturally to care sor their state? |
A26686 | Is this our tenderness to the* Children that God hath given us? |
A26686 | Is* this to cherish them as a Nurse cherisheth her Children? |
A26686 | Now if we have a Ministry, but such as doth not answer the ends of a Ministry, how few degrees are we the better for them than if we had none? |
A26686 | O how much is the glory of Christ, and good of souls, bound up in you? |
A26686 | O think, by whom shall these be gathered? |
A26686 | Shall none of their miseries nor necessities move you? |
A26686 | Shall we go from Words to Tears? |
A26686 | Shall we humbly mind you of the relation wherein you stand, and the strong obligations resulting thence? |
A26686 | Shall we mind you of Pauls example and charge? |
A26686 | Shall we we fall from arguing to begging? |
A26686 | Shall you with Jona, fly to Tarshish, when the Lord sends you about your work? |
A26686 | Should not the* Pillars of the Lord''s House stand upright under their weight? |
A26686 | Though you are forbidden to set open the Windows and keep Publick Trading, yet what hinders but that you may have a private Warehouse? |
A26686 | To be plain, the People are willing and forward to venture with you; and to run the resk of it, and shall their Leaders be more backward than they? |
A26686 | Was not this the Apostles case again and again? |
A26686 | Was the tongue of the dumb- born son of Croesus loosed, by the vehement commotion of Nature in him, when he saw one about to murder his father? |
A26686 | We know the Magistrate doth not pretend to this: And if none but Christ did, nor could Commissionate you, can any but He discharge you? |
A26686 | We seem to see the famishing cheeks approaching you, and calling for relief, expostulating as they, Wherefore should we dye before thine eyes? |
A26686 | What a loude refutation of their callumnies would your engaging to purpose in the work of God be at such a time as this? |
A26686 | What a small thing is Riches or Poverty; Sickness or Health; Liberty or Bonds, unless in order to his Glory? |
A26686 | What are the next ends of the Ministry in sum, but † Conversion and* Edification? |
A26686 | What lewd lyes will all these imputations appear to be, if the Lord stir you up to holy an activity? |
A26686 | What should you then do but set to the Work? |
A26686 | When had you such an advantage to get setled Assurance and Peace as now? |
A26686 | When should they shew their care and diligence, their solicitude and watchfulness, if not when the beasts of prey come to tear, and to destroy? |
A26686 | When was there such a time to lay up treasure in Heaven as now? |
A26686 | Where are the † soundings of thy Bowels? |
A26686 | Where doth the* Spirit of God and of Glory rest but upon suffering Saints? |
A26686 | Whether God hath forsaken those of his Ministers, that have set to their work, since the day of that fatal stroke? |
A26686 | Whether you can see Religion sinking, falling, dying away, and you never put your hands and shoulders to it, and yet be blameless? |
A26686 | Whether you had your Commission, Office and Authority from the Magistrate, and your Power in, and relation to the Church, be of a Civil Stamp? |
A26686 | Whether you think in your hearts, that the Ministry that now is, will ever keep up the Power of Godliness? |
A26686 | Whether* there will a blessing follow him that keepeth in his Corn in a time of Famine? |
A26686 | Who can see others at work, and partake of strangers labours, when you their Shepherds give over your care for their souls? |
A26686 | Who is there, that being as I am, would flee? |
A26686 | Who shall chuse our words for us? |
A26686 | Who shall free you from that Wo, or loose your bonds of that necesse, if yet you sit still in silence? |
A26686 | Who will not presage a fatal change, when the † keepers of the house tremble, and the strong men bow themselves? |
A26686 | Why are they no more visited? |
A26686 | Why do you not call upon and quicken them frequently by these? |
A26686 | Why should not we answer with them, † It is better to obey God than man? |
A26686 | Why then do you neglect that of your work which would not expose to Pesecution? |
A26686 | Will our Lord be put off by this, as a sufficient answer for our loytering, that others were a labouring? |
A26686 | Will you not care that the Ministry be not blamed, and study to roul off so colourable an occasion of reproach? |
A26686 | You are the Champions of the Lord; and shall not you be* valiant for the Truth upon Earth? |
A26686 | and as you have received the gift, so you minister the same to others, without which you can not be good Stewards of the manifold Grace of God? |
A26686 | and confess your Lord in the face of danger, though in † midst of a wicked and adulterous generation? |
A26686 | and have we such a Cloud of Martyrs, that have so stoutly led the Van? |
A26686 | and shall We shift off our Work for fear of Persecution? |
A26686 | and shall we flinch at the beginning of any Suffering? |
A26686 | and shall we make them believe, by our flinching, that these things were not so? |
A26686 | and so indeed, whether God shall have any Church or no? |
A26686 | and when should they ply their Patients, unless when in most danger to be infected with the mortal Plague, and common Leprosie of the Times? |
A26686 | and whom should we believe in this, sooner then those that have tryed the worst? |
A26686 | and will not you stand to your work, against the † contradictions of men, that would* make the work of the Lord to cease? |
A26686 | and yet do you let your Talents lie unoccupied? |
A26686 | any Service or no? |
A26686 | do not they plainly make it, not the Prize they aim at, but the But they shoot at? |
A26686 | how do they hang upon your lips? |
A26686 | how early will they rise? |
A26686 | how far will they travel? |
A26686 | how should Christ''s Kingdom and Interest, and the Power of Holiness be suported by these hands? |
A26686 | if they be, why do we not live up to them? |
A26686 | may you not preach to a private Family, or single person? |
A26686 | or Physicians, that have themselves the Plague sores running upon them? |
A26686 | or from the multitude and weight of their publick Imployments? |
A26686 | or sensual Shepherds, that feed themselves, and not the Flocks? |
A26686 | or take away what( confessedly) he can not give? |
A26686 | shall not a willing People, make a willing Ministry? |
A26686 | shall the † Jachin and Boaz of the Temple be as a man without strength? |
A26686 | shall we suffer the world to think that the spring of all our Motion, the oyl to our Wheels, the wind in our Sailes was nothing but outward Advantage? |
A26686 | were not they commanded,* yea strictly charged, not to preach any more? |
A26686 | were not this to make it to be at the Magistrates pleasure whether Christ shall have any Ministry or no? |
A26686 | what are we good for, for what do we serve, but only for his Pleasure? |
A26686 | where are the movings of their Bowels? |
A26686 | whether there shall be any Preaching or not? |
A26686 | will you not rather say, with resolution, as holy Nehemiah, Shall such a man as I flee? |
A26686 | with[ Cruel Fathers] that* that give stones instead of bread, and Scorpions for Fish? |
A26686 | with[ Violent Watchmen] that when the distressed Spouse hath come to seek her Beloved, have woundded her, and smitten her, and took away her vail? |
A73023 | & what though thou fightest against principalities and powers, when thou hast Cherubins, and Seraphims on thy side? |
A73023 | & who shal goe for( vs)? |
A73023 | 2 But now England, how hast thou requited this kindnesse of the Lorde? |
A73023 | 3 Are good Ministers so thinne sowne? |
A73023 | A Minister is to declare the reconciliation betwixt God and man, and is hee himselfe not reconciled? |
A73023 | A question or inquirie made by God; When shall I send, and who shall goe for vs? |
A73023 | Againe, might not the Prophet haue alledged that with a better pretence and colour then they? |
A73023 | Alas, alas, is not that a simple& a silly search where such blockes as these are, lye vnspied? |
A73023 | All that God can giue a man in this world, is his Gospell: what then can God giue to be regarded, when his gospel is contemned? |
A73023 | Also I heard the voyce of the Lorde, saying, whom shall I send, and who shall goe for vs? |
A73023 | Also, I heard the voice of the Lord saying, whom shall I send? |
A73023 | And if Paul said, Who is? |
A73023 | And not to run vpon priuate motions, Ob, How shall I know when God calles me? |
A73023 | And shall God suffer so foule a wickednesse to lye vnpunished? |
A73023 | And some want willingnesse to vndertake the labour, as God here complaineth; Who shall goe for vs? |
A73023 | And they teach, a man may in this life perfectly fulfill the Lawe, but who can doe it, i ● not ministers? |
A73023 | And what ministers, if not extraordinary prophets? |
A73023 | Are not these goodly liuings for learned men? |
A73023 | But alas, can not the Kings Messenger or Officer be honoured, vnlesse he be set vpon the Kings throne? |
A73023 | But for the matter: Are apparitions from heauen so ordinary in the popish Church? |
A73023 | But it will then be demaunded, how may I know if God bid me goe? |
A73023 | But let those men marke heere the phrase of this holy Prophet, when God asked, Whom shall I send? |
A73023 | But may not another Christian do it? |
A73023 | But then it may be demanded, why the Lorde saith so? |
A73023 | But to goe further: whence came this Coale? |
A73023 | But what doth this belong to them alone? |
A73023 | But what kinde of seruantes are they? |
A73023 | But, if we will not doe this, then alas, what wil follow? |
A73023 | By this inquirie, and question made by God, whom shall I send, and who shall goe for vs? |
A73023 | Can hee commend the state of Grace to another, and neuer felt the sweetenesse thereof in his owne soule? |
A73023 | Dare he present another man to Gods mercy for pardon, and neuer yet presented himselfe? |
A73023 | Dare hee come to preach sanctification with polluted lips, and out of an vnsanctified heart? |
A73023 | Doe yee thus requite the Lord: O foolish people& vnwise? |
A73023 | Euen cry to the mountaines, fall vpon vs: and to the hils, couer vs, and hide vs: from what? |
A73023 | Euen so it is with a nation, or a people: are they taught, and are they worse and worse? |
A73023 | For shal the Oxes mouth be mousled, which treads out the corne, or shall a man goe to warre at his owne cost? |
A73023 | For what though thou hast mightie men of this world against thee, when thou hast angels for thee? |
A73023 | Hee willes the Lord to send him: then where are they who dare bragge of their priuate motions, and will runne when they are not sent? |
A73023 | How foule a thing is it that amongst so many, the Lord should haue cause to complaine; Whom shall wee send? |
A73023 | How? |
A73023 | If any aske, how he shal know when Gods calles him? |
A73023 | If any man aske; But is it not as good if another man pronounce forgiuenesse vnto me vpon my repentance? |
A73023 | If then God hath stood knocking at our hearts fiue& thirtie yeares: is it not now time to bee gone, vnlesse we open presently? |
A73023 | In the last place, let vs marke what God saith: Whom shall I send,& who shal goe for vs? |
A73023 | In the olde Testament, when the people receiued the law from Gods owne mouth, it is saide, they ran away, and cryed out, Why should we die? |
A73023 | Is it not then an honour and happinesse vnto thee to bring thy sonne to this estate? |
A73023 | Now we come to the second general point here laid down: that is, whom must we Search? |
A73023 | Now, how did this people( thus beloued of their God,) requite this his loue, which they had no more deserued, then any other Nation? |
A73023 | O what is this, that I haue done against God, against his Church, and against my owne soule? |
A73023 | Reade Saint Iohn, whose sinnes soeuer you remit, they are remitted; whose you retaine, they are retained: will you haue the meaning of both? |
A73023 | Repent, or else certainely God will take vengeance: But( will mans heart say) is this true? |
A73023 | Shall they be so diligent to destroy soules without a commission, and incurre Gods curse for their labour? |
A73023 | The Lord knoweth who are his, and neede not to aske whom shall I send, or who shall goe? |
A73023 | The second vse concernes the ministers also: are they Gods Angels? |
A73023 | The third point: Who must search? |
A73023 | Thirdly, let vs obserue how the Lord saith: Who shal( I) send? |
A73023 | This should bee the end of their preaching, to deliuer a soule from hell:& what should Commissioners doe, but execute their Commission? |
A73023 | This sinne was neuer amongst the Iewes: they indeed regarded it not so as it deserued, but who did euer make a mocke and a scorne of it but England? |
A73023 | What place is it they holde? |
A73023 | Whence came this Coale? |
A73023 | Where is the cause? |
A73023 | Why should we search our selues? |
A73023 | Why then should they so much condemne them, for such faults, as wherein themselues haue made them faultie? |
A73023 | Will any man endure alwayes to bee mocked, then how long hath God beene mocked? |
A73023 | Will any man endure to stand knocking continually? |
A73023 | Will you knowe the meaning hereof? |
A73023 | and can there bee any darknesse at Noone day, but it must bee wilfull? |
A73023 | and hath not God ordained( marke, it is his Ordinance) that those which teach the Gospel, shall liue of the Gospel? |
A73023 | and how foule a staine is it to the honour of his calling, to be polluted in the common pollutions of his people? |
A73023 | and is Israel onely a Nation not worthy to be beloued? |
A73023 | and may not wee expect a learned ministerie, where there is such maintenance? |
A73023 | and shall wee continue so still? |
A73023 | and should not a man look about him, afore he come there? |
A73023 | and then changing the number, hee saith: Who shall goe for v ●? |
A73023 | and who shall gae for vs? |
A73023 | are there so few of them? |
A73023 | how may I know if God bid me goe? |
A73023 | or to him, who, when thy cause is in triall at the barre, will pleade it for thee? |
A73023 | or to him, who, when thy health is lost, can tell thee how to get it againe? |
A73023 | or who shall be sent to such a parish? |
A73023 | shall Baal haue his 4. hundred prophets, and God haue his Elias alone? |
A73023 | so can not Angels be honoured, vnlesse they be made Gods, or Sauiours, or mediators? |
A73023 | they approach to the burning Bush, with their shooes on their feete: that is, into Gods presence in their sinnes: what shall come of it in the end? |
A73023 | what are moulehils, when such mountaines are not seene? |
A73023 | what did Nathan heere, but the duty of euery true minister? |
A73023 | what place or office haue they? |
A73023 | will nothing serue him, but the Crowne and Scepter? |
A14003 | An ● if the roote be rotten, what may be thought of the branches? |
A14003 | And dare man maligne her? |
A14003 | And did not Christ himselfe somtimes handle the i Axe? |
A14003 | And if fire haue taken hold on it ▪ how painfull ought they to be in ● ● aking of it, and hindering it from proceeding further? |
A14003 | And shall we thinke that the Lord of Lords,& Prince of all Princes will not defend& protect his faithful seruants& Embassadours? |
A14003 | And were not his Apostles poore? |
A14003 | And what though a man haue an axe, if he haue no skill to vse it? |
A14003 | And who knoweth the secret will of God? |
A14003 | Are not the faithful Ministers of the Gospell as worthy to be maintained, as the Priests were vnder the Law? |
A14003 | Are our enemies great and mighty? |
A14003 | Are they not as worthy of plentifull prouision, as they were? |
A14003 | Are they politique and subtle? |
A14003 | Are they so cheerefull in euill? |
A14003 | Are they watchful and laborious to work thy ruine? |
A14003 | But he will recompence, them their wickednesse, and destroy them in their owne malice, t How oft shall the candle of the wicked be put out? |
A14003 | But what is this to thee? |
A14003 | But what? |
A14003 | Can a y woman forget her child, and not haue compassion on the sonne of her wombe? |
A14003 | Can they not sleepe, except they haue done euill? |
A14003 | Christ dyed freely for his sheep, without the least constraint; why then should not his Ministers feede them freely without compulsion or grudging? |
A14003 | D ● rest thou practise that thy selfe, which thou preachest against in others? |
A14003 | Did Paul persecute Christ m himselfe, because he persecuted his members? |
A14003 | Diuide a ship, and how shall it saile? |
A14003 | Diuide the Church, and how shall she hold out vpon the waters, and not be drowned? |
A14003 | Do false teachers labour to peruert vs? |
A14003 | Do they menace and trouble thee? |
A14003 | Do they traduce and disgrace thee? |
A14003 | Do we not see how one country followes another in foolish and new- fangled fashions? |
A14003 | Do we not see how the world is followed of the mē of this world? |
A14003 | Do we not see many men imitate great persons in their vanities? |
A14003 | Doth the flesh contend against vs? |
A14003 | Doth their sleepe leaue them, except they cause some to fall by them? |
A14003 | Finally, wouldest thou shew thy selfe a true disciple of Christ thy Sauiour? |
A14003 | For first, b What hast thou, that thou hast not receiued? |
A14003 | For how dare men cut downe, or bind vp,& bring in without his bidding and authorizing? |
A14003 | For what should hee do with Gods sword, tha ● knowes not how to vse it? |
A14003 | Hast thou none to persecute, none to maligne, none to trouble but him, that dyed that thou mightest liue& not dye? |
A14003 | Haue they by their ministery procured our spirituall life, and shall not we prouide for their naturall life? |
A14003 | He is our Buckler, and Shield of defence; why should we feare? |
A14003 | How carefull should they be to defend his house from the fire of contention and schisme? |
A14003 | How long shall thy wicked thoughts remaine within thee? |
A14003 | How much more then owe we them our worldly pelfe to maintaine& relieue them? |
A14003 | How then do they spoile and rob the Lord, that do not pay theis tithes and offerings truly vnto his Ministers, but deceiptfully and vntruly? |
A14003 | If God be on our side, who can, or who dare be against vs? |
A14003 | If an house be deuided against it selfe, how shall it stand? |
A14003 | If his workmen fall to wrangling, how shal his worke go forward? |
A14003 | If they bring vs to the pleasures of heauen, is it much for vs to bring them of the profits of the earth? |
A14003 | If they haue sowne to vs m spirituall things, is it a great matter if they reape our carnall things? |
A14003 | If they prouide for our soules, why should not we prouide for their bodies? |
A14003 | If we be diligent in our owne affaires, how much more diligent should we be in Gods? |
A14003 | If we must loue k all men, and if we must be gentle towards all men, is it seemely for vs to hate one another? |
A14003 | Indeed o the wicked practiseth against the iust, and gnasheth his teeth against him; but wilt thou be so wicked? |
A14003 | It is well: e Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thy selfe? |
A14003 | Must men looke to their cattell with diligence,& shall not Ministers look diligently to the soules of men? |
A14003 | Now darest thou oppose thy selfe against her, on whom God hath bestowed so great cost? |
A14003 | Now what a singular comfort should this be to vs alway, in that we haue the great God of heauen and earth residing in vs? |
A14003 | Now wilt thou be reputed a persecutor of Christ Iesus? |
A14003 | One man striues to haue as good corne as another: why then should not we labour to be as rich in grace as our brethren? |
A14003 | Shall Sampson m refuse his drinke, because it came out of the Iaw- bone of an Asse? |
A14003 | Shall l Elijah refuse his meate because a Rauen brought it? |
A14003 | Shall pouerty driue thee frō thy calling, or make thee to faint in thy calling? |
A14003 | Shall the Diuell labour alacriously to seduce and peruert men, and shall not they striue as stoutly and as cheerefully to conuert and saue men? |
A14003 | Shall the malice& enuy of the wicked? |
A14003 | Shall the obstinacy of the people? |
A14003 | Shall the sonne of man whose breath is in his nostrils, seeke to fire her, or pull her downe? |
A14003 | Shall their rage, their choler? |
A14003 | Shall threats& disgraces? |
A14003 | Shall we be spitefull and crabbed one vnto another? |
A14003 | Shall we dwell in our seeled houses, and see his house lye wast without griefe of heart? |
A14003 | Shall we labour that our soile may be good and fertile, and shall we with patience see our soules sterile& vnfruitfull? |
A14003 | Shall we neglect the Sheepe of Christ Iesus? |
A14003 | Shall wickednesse be d sweete to the wicked? |
A14003 | The d eye is the light of the body: if it be blind, how darke is that body? |
A14003 | Then loue; for m God is loue: Wouldest thou be obedient vnto God? |
A14003 | They pray for vs; wherefore then should not we pray for them? |
A14003 | Thou that abhorrest Idols, dost thou commit sacriledge? |
A14003 | Thou that preachest a man should not steale, dost thou steale? |
A14003 | Thou that sayest a man not kill, wilt thou starue the soule by with- holding the food, that is conuenient for it? |
A14003 | Thou that sayest a man should not commit adulterie, doest thou commit adultery? |
A14003 | Vis cognoscere verum Christi Ministrum: Wilt thou( saith he) know a true Minister of Christ? |
A14003 | Was not Christ poore to Man, that he might make thee rich to God? |
A14003 | We are all carefull to keepe our owne fields and houses in good case, and shall we neglect the Church, which is the Lords? |
A14003 | Were not all his Apostles hated& persecuted? |
A14003 | What an honour is it to vs that the king of kings should keepe his court continually in vs? |
A14003 | What danger neede we dread? |
A14003 | What do we else deserue, but that he should make vs desolate as a desert, and burne vs vp with the fire of his wrath? |
A14003 | What if he haue a net,& know not how to cast it? |
A14003 | What need we dread? |
A14003 | What none? |
A14003 | What remaineth for vs then to do? |
A14003 | What then? |
A14003 | What though a man haue a plough, if he know not how to plow? |
A14003 | What though he haue a salue, if he knowe not how to apply it? |
A14003 | Wherefore then should not the Ministers of God concord& agree together for God? |
A14003 | Who art thou, that thou shouldest feare a mortall man, and the sonne of man, which shall be made as grasse? |
A14003 | Who dare draw his sword and smite, who dare meddle with his keyes, to open or shut ministerially without his licence? |
A14003 | Who dare sit in Moses his chaire, vnlesse he haue set him in it, and put his Law- booke into his hands to vnclaspe and explicate it vnto his people? |
A14003 | Whom shall wee then need to feare? |
A14003 | Why should not our labours be sweete and pleasing to vs, seeing they be commodious, commendable, and commanded? |
A14003 | Why should we flye farre from him this way, that come so neare to him that way? |
A14003 | Why then should not we that come neare to God by ● ur office, striue to draw neare vnto him by goodnesse and ve ● tuous moralities? |
A14003 | Wilt thou be that wicked man that will detest and abhorre him? |
A14003 | Wilt thou maligne her whom he doth loue, and in his loue hath chosen to himselfe? |
A14003 | Wouldest thou abide in the true light? |
A14003 | Wouldest thou be like the Lord that did beget thee? |
A14003 | Wouldest thou know that thou art in the state of life? |
A14003 | Wouldest thou know that thou louest God? |
A14003 | a Know ye not( saith Paul) that ye are the Temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? |
A14003 | and spanneth the heauens with his hand? |
A14003 | e How shall they preach except they be sent? |
A14003 | f What sh ● ● I render vnto the Lord( saith Dauid) for all his benefits towards me? |
A14003 | q He that is vpright in his way, is indeed( as Salomon teacheth) an abomination to the wicked; but shal he be abominable vnto thee? |
A14003 | w Kno ● ye not( saith Paul) that ye are the Temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? |
A14003 | was not Christ disgraced, maligned, calumnized,& euill in ● reated? |
A41233 | ( besides other places) quite out of his minde? |
A41233 | 28? |
A41233 | 7. he confesseth that the Office of Ministers is meant in the same place, why then not prophesying; when they are equally called gifts? |
A41233 | 7. if this be not a distinct Office from the Membership of others? |
A41233 | A faithfull Ministry hath been alwaies esteemed the greatest blessing, and is it now become the greatest curse? |
A41233 | A modest spirit, a tender conscience will be rather apt to suspect, then cry up self- ability, when it remembers Paul''s question, Who is sufficient? |
A41233 | Again, If one man may go without sending, why not another? |
A41233 | And can that be an unlawful Ministery, that hath brought in so many souls to God? |
A41233 | And hath not he promised to be with them to the end of the world? |
A41233 | And if no true Churches, who hath power to send them to preach, that question the Call of others? |
A41233 | And is it nothing to make him your Enemy? |
A41233 | And is the Ministery the only Office to be run upon without a Call? |
A41233 | And was not John commissioned for the service? |
A41233 | And were not Presbyters long before Jesuite, Priest or Bishop either( in his sense?) |
A41233 | Are any gifts of God to be contemned? |
A41233 | Are not gifting and saying go, two distinct acts? |
A41233 | Are not their gifts manifest? |
A41233 | Are they not able to speak some things the word holds out? |
A41233 | Are they now so evil, who have been the Instruments of so much good? |
A41233 | Are we weary of our mercies, or are we weary of God, or rather is not God weary of us? |
A41233 | Are you now so strengthned against Popery, that you need their help no longer? |
A41233 | Are you so secure from Gods Judgements, that you need their intercession no longer? |
A41233 | Be chiefly in the examination of your selves, with what face will you reprove others, when your own faults are more eminent? |
A41233 | Because there is some difference in their service, therefore must their Offices be questioned? |
A41233 | But if when they baptized, there were not other Christians, whom did they baptiz? |
A41233 | But what must we think of those who have but few or small gifts, whose greatest gift is to talk of gifts? |
A41233 | But what need further testimony? |
A41233 | But what need we trifle in Expositions, when the word is so clear? |
A41233 | But where doth the Scripture mention gifted brethren more then gifted women? |
A41233 | By what authority dost thou these things, and who gave thee this authority? |
A41233 | Can he without blushing accuse them of walking in the Devils darknesse? |
A41233 | Can it be thought that man must be only passive in the work of his salvation? |
A41233 | Can that Calling be unnecessary, which was appointed for the perfecting of the Saints, for the edifying of the body of Christ? |
A41233 | Can that Office be evil that is ordained by God himself? |
A41233 | Can the encrease of mercy free us from, or should it engage us more to duty? |
A41233 | Can they not exhort to what God commands, and reprove the acting of what God forbids? |
A41233 | Can this be hurtfull? |
A41233 | Can this lessen their gift, or render their persons more offensive? |
A41233 | Could his personall wickednesse evacuate all the civill or religious Acts( although good in themselves) he did by vertue of his Office? |
A41233 | Did Jerusalem ever prosper, when the Prophets were slain? |
A41233 | Did they baptize when they were but ordinary Christians, before they were sent forth by Christ? |
A41233 | Did you ever reade that the Ministery was lost to a people, and that God staied long after? |
A41233 | Duty helps to pinnion the wings of the flesh; take off that pinnion, give the wings but liberty, whither( short of heaven) may it not flie? |
A41233 | For which of their good deeds would ye kill them? |
A41233 | Hath Baptism been so long out of fashion, that he hath forgotten the words of it? |
A41233 | Hath his new and clear light dazled his eyes? |
A41233 | Have not the Ministers been the Horsemen and Chariots of Israel? |
A41233 | Have not they stood between you and Popery for these many years? |
A41233 | Have not they stood in the gap between you and Gods indignation many a time? |
A41233 | Holy Ghosts? |
A41233 | How can gifted brethren take to them any of these Titles, unlesse they be in the number of those Officers? |
A41233 | How easie is it for people to mistake? |
A41233 | How now? |
A41233 | How shall they preach except they be sent? |
A41233 | How then got he to be of a Church, or when did the true Church begin? |
A41233 | I confess the means is not effectual to all, but must it be therefore used to none? |
A41233 | I shall only propose what he asked, p. 44. Who are the unquiet men, the gifted brethren or the Ministers? |
A41233 | If abilities were given by the laying on of the hands of the Presbytery, what need of reading and meditation to acquire them? |
A41233 | If all that have Gifts may do their work? |
A41233 | If it be ordinary now, Why doth it not continue? |
A41233 | If it were ordinary in the Primitive times, why was it given then by Revelation? |
A41233 | If the Ministers of England are no true Ministers, then where are the true Churches? |
A41233 | If the Shepherd be destroyed, who shall watch the flock, who shall prevent the worrying, the devouring of the sheep? |
A41233 | If there be no interpreter; who shall declare to man his Righteousnesse? |
A41233 | In how many places doth God complain of them that preach, yet are not sent; that run, yet he sent them not? |
A41233 | Is duty more out of fashion now than it was? |
A41233 | Is it that there is not work enough at home, that you are so busie abroad? |
A41233 | Is it the liberty of Christians to be free from Gods service? |
A41233 | Is not God himself ingaged in their quarrell? |
A41233 | Is not the sin of your life enough to employ you in the examination of, and mourning for it? |
A41233 | Is not this the Carpenters Son? |
A41233 | Is the childe bred up only to scratch out the Fathers eyes? |
A41233 | Is the constantly successive practice of the Churches in all ages of no prevalency? |
A41233 | Is the past example of the Apostles of no value? |
A41233 | Is there any such word in all the Scripture as Ghost? |
A41233 | Is this all their Reward, to be beaten with the Weapons they have put into others hands? |
A41233 | Is this the reward of their pains, the return of their prayers, sighs, groans and labours for you? |
A41233 | It is but an injury to the Text to say that the people chose him, for if they had chosen one, why should they have presented two? |
A41233 | It is urged: May not you do your self, what you may command your servant to do? |
A41233 | It was afterward enquired, Whether any men were ever made Ministers by men since the Apostles daies, or those sent by them? |
A41233 | Jehu was a wicked man, was therefore his pulling down the Idols of Baal evil? |
A41233 | May not God, who in free love gives the reward, propose what condition he pleaseth? |
A41233 | Nay, if Ministers were not made by men since the Apostles daies, who made these men such? |
A41233 | Oh foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that you should not obey he truth? |
A41233 | One man takes up water at the Fountain; is it not the same water, or must it be wickedly come by, that another takes up in the channell? |
A41233 | Or is this a just recompence now to cry them down? |
A41233 | Or rather have not the Champions of Popery so insinuated, that they have perswaded you to cast off your defence? |
A41233 | Praier depends upon beleeving, beleeving upon hearing, hearing upon a Preacher, and preaching upon Sending, How can they preach? |
A41233 | Saith Apostle concerning Christ, To which of the Angels said he at any time; This is my Son, this day have I begotten thee? |
A41233 | Shall the gifts of Fortune( so called) be imbraced, and shall the gifts of the minde, which are more excellent, be accounted lesse worthy? |
A41233 | The Office of a Priest( saith he) was appointed by God; and was not the Office of Pastors and Teachers so too? |
A41233 | The baptism of John whence is it? |
A41233 | Think you that Aaron might make himself a Priest? |
A41233 | To what end had he a reasonable soul given him, if not to imploy its faculties( especially) for that better part which can not be taken from him? |
A41233 | Was ever this Text made good, and is it not this day fullfilled in our ears? |
A41233 | Was it not only their desire to share in what they pretended evil in others, that was the cause of the outcry? |
A41233 | Were not the Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors, Teachers, substituted by Christ under the Gospel? |
A41233 | Were not the Prophets and Priests instituted by him under the Law? |
A41233 | What are the Ministers the only troublers of Israel, that they are so troubled by all sorts of people? |
A41233 | What ease, what advantage can it be to godly Ministers to threaten judgement against sinners, were it not for Gods command, and their profit? |
A41233 | What evidence doth he produce from the Churches, deluded Souls, publike Peace, but what is dug out of his own pit, made of his own brain? |
A41233 | What instruction must be given, if duty must not be pressed? |
A41233 | What must we reprove if sin must not be spoken of? |
A41233 | What need I tell you of Matthias his being sat apart for the Apostleship in the place of Judas? |
A41233 | What probability is there, that people should receive advantage by those doctrines that continue their carnall peace? |
A41233 | What spirit hath possessed the man? |
A41233 | What testimony of Scripture doth he bring, which he doth not misapply? |
A41233 | What then? |
A41233 | What think you now? |
A41233 | What wickednesse is in that? |
A41233 | Where Isaiah was to go about Gods service, the Lord asked, Whem shall I send? |
A41233 | Whether every man ought not to continue in the Calling in which God hath set him? |
A41233 | Why had he not as well questioned what Timothy''s gift had been, when it was different from Pauls too? |
A41233 | Why were not all that had gifts Prophets? |
A41233 | Will people never be sensible of such mens abuses? |
A41233 | Will the example of Vzzah prevail, who out of an honest intention but attempted what belonged to the Priests Office only, yet was severely punished? |
A41233 | Would you violently thrust them out of the Church, who have travelled in birth to bring you into it? |
A41233 | and then with violence to pursue what through- mistake they propose as good? |
A41233 | can any gift of God unfit men for service? |
A41233 | else what number is assigned, and what measure of gifts is competent? |
A41233 | how can they dare perform any of this work, unless they are called to some of these functions? |
A41233 | if not, why had not the darkness still covered it? |
A41233 | if the holy Ghost were conferred by the imposition of Pauls hands, what need any other way to make his profiting appear? |
A41233 | may they do all the service of an Officer, yet not execute the Office? |
A41233 | or hath he been digging so long in the bottomlesse pit, that the smoak hath wholly beclouded him? |
A41233 | what hardships do not only the Ministers, but the truth of Christ suffer from men of contrary mindes? |
A41233 | which way went the Spirit of God from him? |
A41233 | who are most like Corah, Dathan, and Abiram, and then may most fear their punishment? |
A41233 | why not all? |
A41233 | why not more? |
A41233 | will not many of his own party contradict him in this? |
A41233 | will not the making sure your title to Eternal happiness finde you work enough in private? |
A41233 | will not they acknowledge, that many Ministers of England live holily, walk by the light of Gods Spirit? |
A41233 | yet ignorant of this? |
A49441 | 2. as he reads it with an Introduction, why rather have you not sorrow that he who hath done this might be taken away from among you? |
A49441 | 22. not to lay hands suddenly on any? |
A49441 | 232 What is essential to the Constitution of a Bishop? |
A49441 | 4. handles this Question under this Title, Whether Hereticks and Apostates which are baptized be parts and members of the Church? |
A49441 | 49. by what means the essential of this power may be Conveyed? |
A49441 | A Father begs for his Son, a Master for his Servant, shall not Christian Parents, yea the Christian Church, be heard in prayer for these Infants? |
A49441 | AND then next I will examine, Whether the power of the Keyes was given to them, and them only? |
A49441 | An Answer to a Question proposed in these late unhappy times to the Author, What is a Minister? |
A49441 | An uncouth kind of phrase doth not give Essentials to the outward Call; no, it doth not, for it is the outward Call of a Minister, what''s that? |
A49441 | And again in the same Epistle, Quid mihi praeter unius urbis C ● nsu ● tudinem? |
A49441 | Are they Ministers of Christ? |
A49441 | BUT yet we must not leave them, but examine, Whether there were any Addition made to these Apostles, and what that was? |
A49441 | Baptism of the Disciples before Christs death, was the same with Johns? |
A49441 | But could none else preach? |
A49441 | But here if any should ask, What, must the people submit to any Pastor, though heretical, though scandalous in his life? |
A49441 | But how then, may one say, is St. Pauls saying true, If a Son, then an Heir? |
A49441 | But lest any man should doubt, whether these were Presbyters or no? |
A49441 | But let us conceive what it is? |
A49441 | But now it may be enquired, Was there no such Office as that of a Deacon proper to the Church? |
A49441 | But now suppose his Consequence were good in Logick, will the Text bear him out in the matter? |
A49441 | But see what weight Mr. Hookers Opinion hath: By this is meant a Deacon; what word shews it? |
A49441 | But why so, I ask? |
A49441 | Can any man answer me but out of Ecclesiastical Story? |
A49441 | Can it imply depose? |
A49441 | Can one fellow Presbyter Censure another, or he who is barely a Temporal Speaker or Mouth of the rest? |
A49441 | Did Crete choose, or St. Paul ordain Titus their Minister? |
A49441 | Doth the Text name none but these Pastors and Teachers? |
A49441 | Ergo, I set down his words, and all his words; where hath he shewed that Presbyters elected their Bishop? |
A49441 | FIrst, It may be questioned, whether the power of preaching was given to the Apostles, and them only? |
A49441 | First, how farr the Essentials of the Ministry or Minister may be given by Man? |
A49441 | For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care to rule the Church of God? |
A49441 | GIfts here, are not such as are Common, and belong to all Christians, as Faith, Hope, Charity,& c. What if they are not? |
A49441 | HIS Second Question is, Whether Ordination gives all the Essentials to an Officer? |
A49441 | HIs Third Argument: If the Apostles who were extraordinary persons, could not, shall men of ordinary Abilities be sufficient? |
A49441 | He answers immediately, Relata sunt quorum unum constat mutua alterius Affectione; This is non- sense; for should I ask, if Vnum, which of the two? |
A49441 | Here is the drift of his Speech, and what word in all this tends to the Addition of any Ecclesiastical Officer? |
A49441 | How can the Pope dispence with Divine Law? |
A49441 | How can this be understood? |
A49441 | How it was given by Prophesy? |
A49441 | How many( to speak modestly) weaknesses may be observed in this Discourse? |
A49441 | I Come now to the other dispute, Whether there be any distinction amongst these Offices, by Apostolical right? |
A49441 | I Would ask, whether a new Duty added by this Covenant, or an old Duty which arose out of Baptism? |
A49441 | I answer, what follows? |
A49441 | I have answered, as I conceive, all that he speaks concerning his first Question, Whether Ordination or Election be first? |
A49441 | I will not lose my self in his long period; Suppose these were sufficient Teaching Ministries, is there no more requisite but teaching? |
A49441 | If a Pastor be an inconsistent Office with a Teacher, why doth Mr. Hooker teach, and so Logically endeavour to prove his Doctrine? |
A49441 | If any man object St. Pauls How can he preach unlesse he be sent? |
A49441 | If not, what can they do? |
A49441 | If the Ministration of Death was glorious, how shall not the Ministration of the Spirit be rather glorious? |
A49441 | If there be so many, what is that to the purpose? |
A49441 | If they may be given and Conveyed by man, by what means men may be said to do this, whether by Ordination, or any other Appointment of Christs? |
A49441 | In whom the right of dispensing it lyes, and by whom it may be dispensed? |
A49441 | Indeed all the other are helps, and most of them Governments, and therefore he could not use this phrase to them, are all helps,& c.? |
A49441 | Is it possible to conclude any thing peremptorily? |
A49441 | It is answered, because it was fire, had the form the burning form of fire: Why did that grow? |
A49441 | It is reported of Salvianus, that he wrote and penned Homilies, which others preached and repeated, which of these( think you) was the Preacher? |
A49441 | Men and brethren, what shall we do? |
A49441 | NOW then, to draw this Discourse to some period, there were other Apostles besides the first Twelve, and St. Paul the Thirteenth but why so? |
A49441 | Now ask, why did a Corporation do this or that, let this Lease, make that man free? |
A49441 | Ordination be before Election? |
A49441 | Ordination gives all the Essentials to an Officer? |
A49441 | Our Saviour complains, My God, my God why hast thou forsaken me? |
A49441 | Proposing this Question, Whether Baptism doth give formality to make a Member of a visible Church? |
A49441 | St. Paul therefore saith of such, How shall he preach, unlesse he be sent? |
A49441 | Suppose I should deny his Major; have the people power to do any thing that is an act of order? |
A49441 | Suppose they did Consist in a mutual Affection one of another, could one properly be said to give the Essentials to the other? |
A49441 | THE next thing to be looked upon, is, Whether these and these onely had the power of baptizing? |
A49441 | THen he enters into a Second Question, how far this Covenant requires Cohabitation? |
A49441 | THere is a great Dispute betwixt Cardinal Bellarmine and others, Whether an Excommunicated person be a member of the Church? |
A49441 | THere is a second Controversie, whether the baptism of the Disciples before Christs Death, differed from Johns? |
A49441 | The Question is, whether an Excommunicate man be a visible member of Christs visible Church? |
A49441 | They answered, that they had not so much as heard that there was an Holy Ghost: and he replying, to what were ye then baptized? |
A49441 | V. Whether the Power of the Keyes was given to them only? |
A49441 | WHat a deal of doo Beza, and he, and Lapide the Jesuit have, to make an Office of this? |
A49441 | Well then, what must it be? |
A49441 | Well, but what saith the Apostle? |
A49441 | Well, let us examine it: this is the general Nature( saith he) to a sort of Ministring Officers, which come after; he faith so, what proof? |
A49441 | What have I to do to Judge them which are without? |
A49441 | What is essential to Constitute a Bishop? |
A49441 | What the gift is here said to be in Timothy? |
A49441 | What the laying on of the hands of the Elders was, and why used? |
A49441 | What this Ordination is, and wherein lies the full breadth and bounds of the being thereof? |
A49441 | What was the Excellency of it? |
A49441 | What, have they in the preterperfect Tense? |
A49441 | Where St. Paul finding Disciples at Ephesus, asked them, whether they had received the Holy Ghost? |
A49441 | Whether Ordination gives all the Essentials to an Officer? |
A49441 | Whether Philip were an Evangelist, and what an Evangelist? |
A49441 | Whether administring the Communion was appropriated to the Apostles, in our Saviours life? |
A49441 | Whether our Sacramental Baptism be the same with that before Christs death? |
A49441 | Whether the power of preaching was given only to the Apostles? |
A49441 | Whether there be such an Office as a Deacon proper to the Church? |
A49441 | Whether these, and these only were Commissioned for Baptism? |
A49441 | Which is an Answer to a Question, proposed in these late unhappy times, to the Author, What is a Minister? |
A49441 | Who can tell what that is which he calls the outward gifting and sitting an Officer for his Call? |
A49441 | Who the proper Minister of this Sacrament? |
A49441 | and Mr. Cotton the Teacher, use Rhetorick to perswade? |
A49441 | are they Ecclesiastical Orders? |
A49441 | but doth reckon that which comes after this, Do all speak with tongues? |
A49441 | doth never say, are all Helps, are all Governments? |
A49441 | have they cast off the polluted raggs of their corrupted nature, and cloathed themselves with the glorious robe of Christs righteousness? |
A49441 | have they renewed themselves according to righteousness and true holiness? |
A49441 | not gifted men? |
A49441 | or can he grant a Commission to act against Divine Laws? |
A49441 | or can they shew that they did confirm, which are proper to Episcopal duties? |
A49441 | or if it should, why not a Chancellor? |
A49441 | or only order the pontifical affairs, which they might do; but not as Bishops? |
A49441 | or whether Christ be the head to so many bodies? |
A49441 | or whether all Christians are not Members of the same body? |
A49441 | thus in English, What doth a Bishop except Ordination, which a Presbyter can not do? |
A49441 | verse, that all members have not the same office; but can I force that to the parallel, when St. Paul doth not mention it? |
A49441 | what orders they gave? |
A46373 | ( And if five Congregations may be called one Church, why not five hundred?) |
A46373 | * Post Episcopum Diaconi Ordinationem subjicit: Quave? |
A46373 | 101. what is a Bishop but the first Priest? |
A46373 | 2, Whether are we to expect any immediate and extraordinary Call to the Ministry in these daies? |
A46373 | 3, Have you not cause to enquire whether you be not acted by the same Spirit? |
A46373 | 9. and afterward at Antioch, Act, 13? |
A46373 | Adde further, that Ministers are called Gods Mouth, and how shall a man take upon him to be Gods mouth who is not sent from God? |
A46373 | After this he puts this Question, Anne cessante ordinaria vocatione? |
A46373 | And although the Apostle out of the sense of the weightiness of it, cried out, Who is sufficient for these things? |
A46373 | And are not you preparing your selves and others to help on this slaughter? |
A46373 | And do the Apostles live for ever? |
A46373 | And how shall they preach except they be sent? |
A46373 | And if our Ministry be Antichristian, how is their conversion Christian? |
A46373 | And if so, Then we ask further what is meant by the Elders? |
A46373 | And if there be a power by Scripture in the people to Ordain Ministers, why was Titus sent to Creete to Ordain Elders? |
A46373 | And may not any man that is gifted preach, though he be not Ordained? |
A46373 | And may therefore all exercise regall jurisdiction amongst men? |
A46373 | And they say, just as Corah and his Company, You take too much upon you, yee sons of Levi ▪ Are not all the people of God holy? |
A46373 | And who gave you this Authority? |
A46373 | And who knowes not but circumstances may be wanting or corrupted, and yet the substance remain intire? |
A46373 | Are Light and Stars necessary? |
A46373 | Are Rulers, Shepherds, Stewards, Ambassadours, Husbandmen, Builders, Angels, Chariots and Horsmen necessary? |
A46373 | Are all Prophets? |
A46373 | Are all Prophets? |
A46373 | Are all Teachers? |
A46373 | Are not all made Kings? |
A46373 | Are not all sinfull enough, naturally hating Teachers, and scorning to be reproved, being enemies to light and truth? |
A46373 | But Ierom saith, It was toto orbe decretum, and how could this be but by Apostolical appointment? |
A46373 | But from whence had he thi ● History? |
A46373 | But how can this be, when the Apostle Paul himself tels us, that he was an Apostle, not of men, neither by men, but by Iesus Christ immediatly? |
A46373 | But how long was it that the Church of Christ was governed by the common Councel of Presbyters without a Bishop set over them? |
A46373 | But how was Paul sure that he should live to write a second? |
A46373 | But how will it be proved ▪ may some say, That these Chorepiscopi were onely Presbyters and not Bishops? |
A46373 | But if a Master of a Family may instruct his own Family, why may he not preach in the publique Congregation? |
A46373 | But if these were two of the seventy Elders, why doth Ioshua desire Moses to forbid them? |
A46373 | But what then is the meaning of Moses prayer, Would God that all the Lords People were Prophets, and that the Lord would put his Spirit upon them? |
A46373 | But why did not they go unto the Tabernacle as the rest did? |
A46373 | But why then do you your selves suffer men whom you call Probationers and Expectants for the Ministry, to preach without Ordination? |
A46373 | But would you then have every man bound to keep constantly to the Minister under whom he lives? |
A46373 | By what Authority do you these things? |
A46373 | Christ makes answer by demanding another question, The Baptisme of Iohn, was it from heaven or of men? |
A46373 | Could they answer as Christ? |
A46373 | Do not most of your Arguments symbolize with the Romanists as if they were arrows shot out of their quiver? |
A46373 | Do you cry out Antichrist, Antichrist, and yet crucifie Christ again in his members? |
A46373 | Do you not hereby wound all the Reformed Churches, darkning the beauty, and obstructing the progresse of Reformation? |
A46373 | Doth God do thus to those that run and are not sent? |
A46373 | Doth not this opinion greatly endanger the souls of others? |
A46373 | Enviest thou, for my sake? |
A46373 | Every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head? |
A46373 | For what are we the better that there is a Ministery by Divine institution, if our Ministry be of man, and not of God? |
A46373 | For what juncture of r ● ● son would be in this? |
A46373 | Had we that same ingenuity we should return the same answer in the sense of our spirituall disability; How can we except some man guide us? |
A46373 | Hast thou considered their work of faith, labour of love, patience of hope? |
A46373 | Hath not the Lord greatly testified from Heaven against this Tenent in his spirituall Judgements upon many the great promoters of it? |
A46373 | Have not they preached and pressed to the conscience the practical points of Christianity? |
A46373 | How can glory be given to God in the Church throughout all ages, if there should be an age in which the Church should be utterly lost? |
A46373 | How can the Sacrament be continued in the Church till Christ come, if there were so many hundred years in which there was no true Ministery? |
A46373 | How harsh and unpleasant is such an expression? |
A46373 | How is it that ye are not afraid to speak evil of the servants of the Lord, set up by his Spirit for the defence of the Gospel? |
A46373 | How little hath been the Progresse of the Protestant Religion ever since? |
A46373 | How may we distinguish between an immediate Call from God, and the imposture of men that say they are so called when they are not? |
A46373 | How may we distinguish between an immediate Call from God; and the imposture of fanatick men that say they are so called, and are not? |
A46373 | How shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? |
A46373 | How shall they hear without a preacher? |
A46373 | How shall they preach except they be sent? |
A46373 | I am against them saith the Lord: a fearfull commination; If God be against them who shall be with them? |
A46373 | If a Minister made by a Bishop be a lawfull Minister, why then did you in your late covenant abjure Episcopacy with all its dependencies? |
A46373 | If all were the eye, where were the hands and feet? |
A46373 | If any demand, how shall we know when Christ spake to them as Apostles? |
A46373 | If it alwaies remained firm, what need a new Ordination? |
A46373 | If thou hast not, why wilt thou speak evil of things and persons thou knowst not? |
A46373 | If your principles about an universall liberty be true, why are you so untrue to your own principles? |
A46373 | In brief, shall an exact scrutiny passe upon such as are to feed the bodies of poor men, and not upon such as feed the souls? |
A46373 | In the same Epistle he saith,( a) Reverence the Bishop as ye ● do Christ, at the holy Apostles have commanded; But where is this commanded? |
A46373 | In times of former trouble, How did Professors live sincerely, love fervently, pray, and fast, and mourn together? |
A46373 | Is Sa ● ● necessary? |
A46373 | Is any sick among you? |
A46373 | Is it not meant the Church of Hierusalem, to which place they are said to come? |
A46373 | Is it not the great work of Antichrist to destroy our Ministers, to smite the Shepherd that the Flock may be scattered? |
A46373 | Is not this opinion the sad abuse of the great liberty now enjoyed? |
A46373 | Is not this to offer manifest violence to the Scriptures? |
A46373 | Is not this to partake of Antichrists sin? |
A46373 | Man, who made me a Iudge or divider over you? |
A46373 | May all be Magistrates? |
A46373 | May not private men preach as well as they? |
A46373 | Might not the people say, What need Paul leave Titus to do that which we can do our selves? |
A46373 | Now is there not a reall distinction( as well as nominall) betwixt the Flock and Pastor, the Sheep and the Shepherd? |
A46373 | Now then we demand, If the people have no Office- power belonging to them, how can they by Election make an Officer? |
A46373 | Now to perform any authoritative act without authority, what is it other then to usurp authority? |
A46373 | Now we demand, who were these Elders? |
A46373 | Now why are all these qualifications required? |
A46373 | Now with whom did Paul spend his three years? |
A46373 | Of what Church? |
A46373 | Or why may not a Justice of Peace send Warrants out of his own County? |
A46373 | Or why might not Vzziah as well offer Incense in the Temple as pray in his own Family? |
A46373 | Otherwise to what purpose are they inhibited? |
A46373 | Secondly, All are made Priests unto God, but are all made Prophets? |
A46373 | Shall Souldiers have no pay because when they are lawfully called forth they offer themselves freely to serve the publike? |
A46373 | Shew us your warrant out of the Word? |
A46373 | THat when Hierome saith, Quid facit Episcopus quod non facit Presbyter except ● Ordinatione? |
A46373 | Tell us by what authority doest thou these things, or who gave thee this authority? |
A46373 | The Apostle doth not say, How shall they preach except they be gifted( though this be true) but how shall they preach except they be sent? |
A46373 | The Apostle useth a four- fold gradation, How shall they call upon him in whom they have not believed? |
A46373 | The Saints are to be united( and what tears are sufficient to lament our present Divisions?) |
A46373 | These holy Ministers were the precious members of Christ, and will you make them as much as is in you the members of an harlot? |
A46373 | They are called Teachers, and doth not the holy Ghost evidently distinguish betwixt them that do instruct and those that are instructed? |
A46373 | This is confuted by the next words in the Text, How shall they preach except they be sent? |
A46373 | This is in it self a truth of clearest evidence: What needs a peculiar Officer to be set apart to a common work? |
A46373 | This promise can not be confined to the persons of Apostles; for where are the Prophets and Evangelists? |
A46373 | To what purpose did Paul and Barnabas go from place to place to ordain Elders? |
A46373 | To what purpose then is Imposition of hands used, if the extraordinary gifts of the holy Ghost be not conveighed thereby? |
A46373 | Was Valentinus Gentilis therefore a friend and Martyr to God the Father, because he died as an enemy to God the Son? |
A46373 | Was it not the peculiar priviledge of the Apostles, Evangelists,& c. to have their Commission extended to all Churches? |
A46373 | We demand what is meant by the Church? |
A46373 | We demand, by whom shall these be baptized? |
A46373 | We demand, who was the Bishop of Ephesus that Paul sent for? |
A46373 | What are we the better that there is a Ministry from Christ, if our Ministry be from Antichrist? |
A46373 | What is meant by the word Office? |
A46373 | What is meant by the word Presbytery? |
A46373 | What part hath the Ruling Elder in Ordination? |
A46373 | Where is the necessity laid upon them( as the Apostle speaks of himself) that they preach the Gospel? |
A46373 | Whether a company of Believers associated together may ordain without Ministers? |
A46373 | Whether are we to expect any immediate Call in these daies? |
A46373 | Whether may one Preaching Presbyter lay on hands without the assistance of other Ministers? |
A46373 | Whether the Call of the first Reformers of Religion from the Errours of Popery, was an immediate Call or no? |
A46373 | Whether this Presbytery was a Presbytery of Bishops, or of single Presbyters? |
A46373 | Whether this Presbytery were Congregational or Classical? |
A46373 | Who art thou that givest thy mouth to evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit? |
A46373 | Who planteth a Vineyard and doth not eat thereof? |
A46373 | Who then is Paul, and who Apollo, but Ministers by whom ye believe? |
A46373 | Why are your professed principles so uneven, and you so contradictory to your own principles? |
A46373 | Why did they not spare their journey, and send to the people to make their own Ministers by Election? |
A46373 | Why should you strengthen the hands of sinners? |
A46373 | Why then do they not celebrate them? |
A46373 | Why was Titus left in Crete to appoint Elders in every City? |
A46373 | Will any sober Christian believe that these were members of the Roman Harlot? |
A46373 | Would not all these injunctions about such an Office be superfluous, if such an Office were not by Divine Institution? |
A46373 | and after many arguments, why doth the Apostle make that appeal? |
A46373 | and also when he was an Apostle( as Calvin saith) long before this time? |
A46373 | and hath not the Lord set a visible seal to their Ministry in the souls of thousands? |
A46373 | and herein do not you gratifie the common Adversary, and strengthen their hands? |
A46373 | and instead of upholding of Episcopacy is not this sufficient to render it odious and contemptible to all sober and Godly and Moderate Christians? |
A46373 | and may not this rise from the spirit of delusion which worketh strongly in the Children of disobedience? |
A46373 | and when to them as Christians? |
A46373 | and why did Paul leave Titus in Crete to ordain Elders in every City? |
A46373 | and why must he be so carefull to see them first fit, in case his laying on of hands would fit them? |
A46373 | if they finde not acceptance with God, all that approbati ● n and applause which they finde from men, what will it profit? |
A46373 | nisi quia Episcopi& Presbyteri unae Ordinatio est? |
A46373 | or was there ever a second? |
A46373 | was not that extraordinary? |
A46373 | were these also Bishops of Hierusalem? |
A46373 | when to them as Ministers? |
A46373 | where our Saviour Christ refuseth to meddle with dividing Inheritances, because he was no Judge; Man, who made me a Iudge? |
A46373 | who ● nows not it would not? |
A46373 | why did the Apostles visit the Churches they had planted, to Ordain Elders in every Church? |
A46373 | why then may they not preach? |
A46373 | will this answer consist with our Brethrens judgment? |
A15527 | & yet where is he in a maner to be found, that maketh conscience of a promise? |
A15527 | ( that is to say, by what doctrine) of workes? |
A15527 | 1. how truly then may we affirme that there is a little and great, a weake and strong faith? |
A15527 | 16. how much more doe we owe this to our elder brother Christ Iesus, from whom we receiue the spirit of adoption? |
A15527 | 19. Who can tell his secret faults? |
A15527 | 22; that they had no cloke for their finne, because by hearing him, they did see and know his doctrine and workes to be of God? |
A15527 | 26, 27. and that he dwels in our hearts by faith? |
A15527 | 3. because shee would not rise in the night and put on her cloathes, and wet her foote a little to open the doore to Christ? |
A15527 | 6: and shall not calling, the roote of these graces, be discerned? |
A15527 | 7. and of their sorrow, and many good fruits: but amongst all the effects of Repentance, the Apostle saith not, What teares hath it wrought? |
A15527 | A reward due vnto good workes, and Why? |
A15527 | Again, is there any thing in all that which you haue spoken, which is not remissible, and to be pardoned? |
A15527 | Againe, Where is the Scribe? |
A15527 | And a little after, Where is then the reioycing? |
A15527 | And baing greatly 〈 ◊ 〉 vnto this assurance by our Repentance, how ought wee to apply our selues to the practise of it? |
A15527 | And doth not Christ say of some of the Pharises, that they knew him& also whence he was? |
A15527 | And doth not euen this proue that God would haue men to beleeue firmely their owne saluation, because Satan would haue vs to doubt of it? |
A15527 | And doth not this imply application to be louing to faith? |
A15527 | And how doth the Church in framing prayers, say, Our Father, but in making confession of faith, say, I beleeue? |
A15527 | And how must not this exceedingly reioyce the beleeuing heart, to see it selfe blessed with Christ and all his merites, and that freely? |
A15527 | And how then are they too blame which teach the doctrine of doubting, vnlesse we haue speciall reuelation from Heauen? |
A15527 | And if this were not done by their faith, how then? |
A15527 | And indeede how should he that made vs, be ignorant of vs? |
A15527 | And tell me now I pray you, would not these graces be handled in that order as ye haue named them? |
A15527 | And then, whether the desire of more wealth and a better estate be couetousnesse? |
A15527 | And to speake truth, how can hee bee too much feared, that hath already done so much for vs? |
A15527 | And touching the number of your sinnes, I easily beleeue they are wondrous many, and more then you thinke for, for who knoweth his offences? |
A15527 | And what fouler sinne can the childe of God commit, then to kill the Lord of glory? |
A15527 | And what great mercies of protections and prosperitie had he receiued before? |
A15527 | And who wil not esteeme the loue and liking of one godly person, aboue the distast and mislike of an hundred worldlings? |
A15527 | Aquila, But the paine of burning is too sharpe and greeuous; we could be content to die, so it were not in the fire, that is most terrible? |
A15527 | Aquila, But when wee feele our selues too weake to stand to it to the death, what then is to be done? |
A15527 | Aquila, Their faire promises, if we wil yeeld, doe allure much: for wee haue their word for life and preferment, to be giuen vs vpon our yeelding? |
A15527 | Are not God and Satan flat opposites, and contraries? |
A15527 | Beasts which out of narall instinct do loue their yong, how do they fare? |
A15527 | But be there not other good vses wherunto good workes do serue, and for which the godly do cheerfully take them in hand? |
A15527 | But haue you any further matters to say, friend Aquila, as touching this purpose? |
A15527 | But seeing God onely is to be loued, and that with all the heart; is it not a wrong to God, to giue any portion of our loue from him to any creature? |
A15527 | But tell me Sir, what Repeutance doe you meane? |
A15527 | But what be the affections in sinners themselues that vsually hinder their Repentance? |
A15527 | But what is it that worldly friends vse to alleadge in this case? |
A15527 | But whereof shall we talke, what shall be the subiect of our speech? |
A15527 | Certainly much will be required of them who haue receiued much, and why may we not thinke, that much will be rendred to them who haue done much? |
A15527 | Christ saith, That if the salt that seasoneth other things, haue lost his saltnosse, wherewith( saith he) shall it be seasoned? |
A15527 | Did not Iacob break his vowes, for which God did temporally chastise him? |
A15527 | Did not their faith apply that Sauiour& God particularly to themselues, who is the common Sauiour of all beleeuers? |
A15527 | Doe ye iudge of the feare of God to be such a worke as is peculiar vnto the Elect& regenerate persons? |
A15527 | Doe you esteeme your enemy as your neighbour, whom ye ought to loue? |
A15527 | First, whether ye thinke any godly person free from all couetousnes? |
A15527 | For God, who put it into their heart, still preseruing it, and being stronger then all that be against it, how can it vtterly faile? |
A15527 | For how knowest thou O woman, whether thou shalt saue thy[ vnbeleeuing] Husband? |
A15527 | For, who sinnes not after repentance, and after receiuing of many great blessings, and making many deepe promises of a better life? |
A15527 | Good friend Aquila, wherefore serue these former encouragements, but to strengthen you against discouragements, when ye meete them? |
A15527 | Good workes merit not, and why? |
A15527 | Good workes please God, and why? |
A15527 | Haue ye any more hinderances of Repentance yet behind vnnamed? |
A15527 | How can any one great sinne hinder God from sauing any beleeuer, when all his sinnes could not keepe him from reconciling him, being an enemy to him? |
A15527 | How differeth this effectuall calling, from the common calling? |
A15527 | How is this 〈 ◊ 〉 calling described in the word of God? |
A15527 | I say, how did the Church there sinart for this her sloth? |
A15527 | If God will saue, who can destroy? |
A15527 | If one hurt but one member, he is bound to make mee amends, how much more if hee hurt my whole body? |
A15527 | Is there any thing which Gods children may not, yea doe not fall into? |
A15527 | It is excluded: By what Law? |
A15527 | Lastly, whether a man may be couetous in his owne goods? |
A15527 | Let me stop you a little in your course; what be these profits which loue brings, and the discommodities which follow the wants of it? |
A15527 | Let me then heare you tel me what it is to loue God? |
A15527 | May there be true Repentance without shedding of teares? |
A15527 | May we not affirme the like of other of Gods faithfull children? |
A15527 | May we not dissemble, or denie for a time the Doctrine of the Gospell, without danger of denying Christ himselfe? |
A15527 | Might not Dauid and Salomon haue thought so, and others also, who haue done as they did? |
A15527 | My first doubt is this; Whether a sinner may not truly repent, except he leaue his sins? |
A15527 | NOw Neighbour Aquila, may I know of you whence doe you come? |
A15527 | Nay, will not the tempter replie, I my selfe beleeue so much, and yet tremble? |
A15527 | Now Sir, may it please you that wee passe forwards vnto that other worke of fearing this God, which after his loue is next to be spoken of? |
A15527 | Now that you haue shewed what an effectual calling is, tell vs by what meanes Christ worketh it? |
A15527 | Now to the second linke, whether this measure of strong faith doth not admit sundry measures and differences? |
A15527 | Now to your second question; what is required to a worke, that it may be held for a good worke? |
A15527 | OF all the tryals of Gods Children, which doe you hold to be greatest, and fullest of difficulty to endure, and glory to ouercome? |
A15527 | Oh what blessed things then are our chastisements, how patiently are they to be borne, how thankfully is God to be blessed for them? |
A15527 | Or hee may still vse a sinne, and yet repent? |
A15527 | Secondly, if God should spare life, what is the gaine of a transitory life, to the losse of eternall life? |
A15527 | Sir, seeing you haue taken the 〈 ◊ 〉 out of my hand, will it please you to wield it now you haue it? |
A15527 | So few that feared God, as that the holy Ghost hath enquired for such as are rare to be found; Where is the man that feareth the Lord? |
A15527 | Suffer mee here a little to stay you in your speech; what may the differance be betweene Sanctification and Repentance? |
A15527 | Tell me friend Aquila, what you do thinke heereof? |
A15527 | Tell me then what is the first sauing Grace, which the holy Spirit workes in our Calling? |
A15527 | Tell me, haue you not been moued to doubt whether there be any God at all? |
A15527 | The conuerted theefe, as little space as he had after his conuersion, yet how many wayes did his repentance declare it selfe? |
A15527 | The fourth fruite ye called a standing in this grace, what is this I pray you? |
A15527 | The occasions As in Dauid, hath God forgotten to be mercifull? |
A15527 | The very Earth trembled at this, and shall not our hearts feare? |
A15527 | There is therefore certainty in their hope, otherwise how could they pray vnto God, and call him Father? |
A15527 | There must necessarily be a knowledge of things to be beleeued: For how can wee beleeue him of whom we haue not heard? |
A15527 | Thus great is the peace, and wonderfull is the security and quiet of the man that maketh God his stay: for who can take out of the hands of God? |
A15527 | Truth is so, I haue, and nothing so much; yea, and of the whole Scriptures, whether they came from God, or not? |
A15527 | Vnto whom doth the high God looke, who dwelleth in the Heauens, but vnto him which hath a 〈 ◊ 〉 heart? |
A15527 | We know not what to say, when we come before the persecutors? |
A15527 | Well, shall we consent and agree to set vpon onr worke afresh? |
A15527 | Well, you then doe thinke that there are degrees of loue towards the Brethren, and that of them some are to be loued, before, and more then others? |
A15527 | What a good worke is? |
A15527 | What be the second and third conditions of a good worke? |
A15527 | What discouragement ariseth from the quality of sinne? |
A15527 | What feeling had Christ, when he cried out, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me: and my soule is heauy to death? |
A15527 | What is dwelling in our hearts, but the presence of Christ, there by his Spirit to doe all the parts of a Sauiour to him in whom he dwelleth? |
A15527 | What is putting on, but an application of a garment to the body for warmth and comelinesse? |
A15527 | What is your 〈 ◊ 〉 in respect of God? |
A15527 | What labour did not Christ endure, that he might expresse his loue to his Church? |
A15527 | What may that be? |
A15527 | What peace and quietnesse can there be, when there lacketh certainty? |
A15527 | What pleasure tooke they in each others presence and wel- fare? |
A15527 | What promises had Iob made to himselfe alone, to assure him by name of his owne saluation; or yet Dauid, or Moses, or infinite others? |
A15527 | What shall I say more? |
A15527 | What should I say further, that through the rodde of correction Gods children are led vnto an hearty and earnest confession of their sinnes? |
A15527 | What thinke you of it? |
A15527 | What was Iacobs family, or the Israelites to the rest of the world? |
A15527 | What will let then, but that 〈 ◊ 〉 may be a true beleeuer, and be saued? |
A15527 | What, will ye Sir, that I doe moue to you by questions such things as concerne it, or will you put vpon me the office of a replyer? |
A15527 | Where shall one finde a faithfull man? |
A15527 | Wherin would you wish vs now to deal? |
A15527 | Who be capeable and fit, who be vnfit and vncapeable therof for the most part; and as men may iudge of it? |
A15527 | Who can hurt, whom hee will keepe? |
A15527 | Who is he that doth not often goe ouer common infirmities? |
A15527 | Will all the World serue to be a recompence of their soule? |
A15527 | Will not this, thinke you, doe some hurt, to teach that there is a desire of faith, which is an acceptance with God for faith it selfe? |
A15527 | Will ye that I try your memory, and put you to call to mind the principall and maine heads of that doctrine? |
A15527 | YEa, Neighbour Aquila, are you here already? |
A15527 | and how could it be truly written, that by faith we stand in grace? |
A15527 | and how shall they heare except they preach? |
A15527 | and how shall they preach, except they be sent? |
A15527 | and if the eye, which is the light of the body, be darke, how great is that darknesse? |
A15527 | and what it is that begets in vs the loue of God? |
A15527 | and what paines ought we to beare, to expresse our loue towards him? |
A15527 | may it not cause men thus to content themselues, seeing now they haue some measure of faith, which is sufficient to saue them? |
A15527 | me thinkes we haue sayd much of Faith, shall wee passe to some other thing? |
A15527 | or what vse of any other vertue, when it lacked the opposition& resistance of the contrary vice, to set it on worke? |
A15527 | otherwise, how thinke ye good we should proceed? |
A15527 | shall one brother offended be respected, and shall the whole fellowshippe and society of brethren be despised? |
A15527 | the Sun was darkened, the Heauen also put on mourning weede, and shall not wee be troubled? |
A15527 | what discontentment they shew when their yong are taken from them? |
A15527 | what good workes shall we single out from the rest, therein to spend our time? |
A15527 | where is the disputer,& c? |
A15527 | wherefore wee stand bound to loue him? |
A39266 | & therefore are you not asham''d to fight against your selves, that you may quarrel me? |
A39266 | About what place, and in what Article, canst thou possibly pick out any such absurdity? |
A39266 | Abundance dost say? |
A39266 | Again, Sir, you''d have me to have cryed and pitied him that preached upon Weep not& c. rather than have& c. I pray, Sir, to what purpose? |
A39266 | And I pray, Sir, how did they use to take such a demonstration? |
A39266 | And I pray, Sir, how many pounds of candle did it cost you, to tie de Corpore, and de Homine together? |
A39266 | And I pray, Sir, may I be so bold, which side doe you intend to hold? |
A39266 | And art thou now so very ● illy as to dream that any of this is against me? |
A39266 | And did it not affect thee, Tim, and make thee sigh again? |
A39266 | And did you, Sir, find there written Status naturae est status belli: as''t is said Calis was upon Queen Marie''s? |
A39266 | And do you, Tim, approve of this illogical, unphilosophical, and unmathematical way of writing? |
A39266 | And dost thou think, Tim, that I will not believe my own eyes and ears, before this nothing that thou sayest? |
A39266 | And is it not a good saying? |
A39266 | And is not appello a good word, you Timothy sause- box? |
A39266 | And is not power a very good thing? |
A39266 | And is not the knowledge of the five Senses, and the rest that you mention very useful? |
A39266 | And is this all that you have now to say? |
A39266 | And lastly if( for diversion and recreation of mind) to discourse; is not here visibly at the bottom either advantage or vain glory? |
A39266 | And may Dick or any other of them, in right and reason, get it all, if they can? |
A39266 | And now what aile you with this definition? |
A39266 | And to doe all this where you were so very much oblig''d, and so very civilly used? |
A39266 | And what do I care if Plato calls memory the Mother of the Maids? |
A39266 | And what fault can you find with all this? |
A39266 | And what if most Nations have Guards, and Castles, and be upon defence? |
A39266 | And why, is it not proper to put in Opticks into a Treatise de Homine? |
A39266 | And why? |
A39266 | And why? |
A39266 | And wilt thou be so childish after all these instructions, as not to believe that interest is, and ought to be the first principle? |
A39266 | And wilt thou not flinch, but be ingenuous, and suffer me to suppose freely? |
A39266 | But I pray, Sir, how come you to think that I was puffed up? |
A39266 | But I prethee, Tim, how came we to ramble thus from the state of war? |
A39266 | But are you very, very certain that they are not? |
A39266 | But for all that, I pray may not I make bold to say, that children desire society in your sence? |
A39266 | But for all that, will you venture to say that these four strangers are actually a body politick? |
A39266 | But for all you are so brisk, Tim: How do you certainly know that they will not fall to breaking of heads and leggs? |
A39266 | But how comes in about that you suppose these people to speak? |
A39266 | But how shall poor Roger make shift to live? |
A39266 | But is it not a good and reasonable thing in it self to perform Contracts, in the very state of nature? |
A39266 | But it is not very bad husbandry to make an hundred steps for that, which might have been done as well with forty? |
A39266 | But to go on, Sir, I pray why are you so very mistrustfull? |
A39266 | But what becomes of Tumbler and Towser all this while? |
A39266 | But where''s the state of war all this while? |
A39266 | But why should I goe about t ● pour forth such Historicall rarities into an empty hogs- head? |
A39266 | But why so many instances? |
A39266 | But, my dear, my duck, my sweet, my honey: I prithee, why so very fierce and furious? |
A39266 | By what means and upon what design didst thou acquire a right and propriety in them, and dominion over them? |
A39266 | Could not he have locked up himself close in his Study, and there have enlightned and clarified his own understanding? |
A39266 | Did thy feet bud, and bring forth shoes? |
A39266 | Did you not promise me to be modest, and 〈 ◊ 〉 to prate? |
A39266 | Did you stand behind a tree and hear the parley? |
A39266 | Do you hear me, Sir? |
A39266 | Do you think they would do half so much good, and ● e half so much respected, if they were considerable S ● hollars? |
A39266 | Doe not I recommend the same justice, mercy, equity,& c. that are recommended in the Bible? |
A39266 | For suppose, Tim, they meet for traffique, is it not plain that every man minds his business, and endeavours to dispatch what he design''d? |
A39266 | For what can be more intelligible than just and unjust? |
A39266 | For, Was not Christ himself in a low condition? |
A39266 | Have I read all the Sermons that were ever Printed since —? |
A39266 | Here, where art thou( as they call thee) Conscience? |
A39266 | Hold: do you know what you are going to say? |
A39266 | How camest thou by those shoes? |
A39266 | How is it? |
A39266 | How many miles would I ride to see such villa ● y chastised? |
A39266 | How so, do you say? |
A39266 | How so? |
A39266 | How? |
A39266 | I have heard some people say, that you did not write the Preface: but do you think I would venture to say so, unless I certainly knew it? |
A39266 | I pray, Sir, what doe you mean by those words, when you say that man is not a sociable creature? |
A39266 | I prethee, Tim, What''s the difference between a Bustard and a Chevin? |
A39266 | I prethee, Tim, tell me, how much conviction will serve thy turn;& I''le undertake thee by the lump, that I may know when I shall make thee a man? |
A39266 | I prethee, Tim, what art thou doing of? |
A39266 | I prethee, Tim, what figure is this objection in? |
A39266 | I prethee, Tim, what was the name of this Philosopher? |
A39266 | I prethee, Tim, which will certainly beat, the French or Dutch? |
A39266 | I prethee, Tim, with how much less? |
A39266 | I profess, Tim, I expect to see thee hang''d some time or other for thy crossness: Where is it that I do any such thing? |
A39266 | If I were at leasure, I could shew you an hundred several places: What think you, Philautus, of the Scriptures being the word of God? |
A39266 | If of himself; what need was there of its being printed? |
A39266 | If to discharge some offi ● ●, is it not to carry on a kind of a market friendship, which has more of jealousie than true love? |
A39266 | In your opinion? |
A39266 | Is it a thing altogether indifferent, till the Magistrate has given his opinion in the case? |
A39266 | Is it not a very reasonable thing, though there were never a Magistrate in the whole World? |
A39266 | Is it not great pity, that you were not matched to that same ● see ● ing Afri ● ● you speak of? |
A39266 | Is not Magistracy as well 〈 ◊ 〉 Ministery an Ordinance of God? |
A39266 | Is not the true notion and perfect Idaea of a cause very necessary? |
A39266 | Is nothing true that I have said in my several Books? |
A39266 | Is this all that I say? |
A39266 | Like it? |
A39266 | Live? |
A39266 | Must I go on further to convince thee? |
A39266 | Must they needs upon first sight set up their tayls, and bristles, and fall a sna ● ling, and swearing, and tearing one anothers throat ● out? |
A39266 | No matter for that: come, shall we take a turn or two in the Walks? |
A39266 | Now indeed you have mended the business much: what, is there ever an Act of Parliament against your beating me particularly? |
A39266 | Now what dost thou infer from this, Tim? |
A39266 | Now when any body reads such idle stuff as this, I pray, Sir, do you think he need send for a witty man to make it ridiculous? |
A39266 | Now, Sir, doe you think that I am such a fool and owle, as to reply to any such thing as this? |
A39266 | Now, would it not make any one in the World raving mad, to hea ● such stuff as yours boasted of for sence? |
A39266 | Or had you word sent you by the Pinaean packet boat? |
A39266 | Out again; we shall have a shower of nothing but Iudges, Doct ● ● rs, and Philosophers: Dost not know that the wise men c ● me out of the East? |
A39266 | Populus aliquando vult decipi; ● t si aliquando cur non nunc? |
A39266 | Say you so? |
A39266 | Say you so? |
A39266 | Shall we give them a second view, and another loose? |
A39266 | So far is true: is it not? |
A39266 | Suffer you, Sir? |
A39266 | Surely, Tim, thou beginnest to be mad: is it not very just, and very punctual? |
A39266 | The Magistrate, thou sayst, did not make them; I wonder who did, whence they came, and who brought them? |
A39266 | The first happy thing that is approved of by all, is your putting in that scrap( as you call it) of the Poet — Quid enim tentar nocebit? |
A39266 | Upon better reason, dost thou say? |
A39266 | WELL met Philautus, how does your best self this morning: What, stout and hearty? |
A39266 | Was not his Iury of life and death most of them poor? |
A39266 | Well: imagine then that they doe not fight: may not Roger, when they come to treat, demand more than his share? |
A39266 | What an uproar and noise thou makest? |
A39266 | What are you resolved then that they must needs have a brush at boxes before they set on the old hen and bacon? |
A39266 | What are you there abouts? |
A39266 | What dost mean, round about the earth? |
A39266 | What dost think all people in the world are amalepert as thy self ●, and talk again, when there is nothing to be said? |
A39266 | What dost think that I studied fourty or fifty years; only to find out and maintain a jest? |
A39266 | What has Nature given to Dick; suppose, a right to the whole Kingdom: with all the profits, priviledges, perquisites, and appurtenances? |
A39266 | What is it that thou would''st have in a Logick? |
A39266 | What law now has he for his money? |
A39266 | What mean you Gentlemen to approve of that in your discourses, which your actions perfectly disavow? |
A39266 | What need is there of any more? |
A39266 | What need you fear my giving back? |
A39266 | What purchase dost thou intend to make? |
A39266 | What should be the business then? |
A39266 | What then, art thou resolved not to stir? |
A39266 | What then, will you maintain that I have discovered nothing at all? |
A39266 | What think you of drunkenness, Philautus? |
A39266 | What think you of faithfulness, i. e. of keeping your promise, or standing to your bargain? |
A39266 | What think you, Philautus, of a man''s hanging himself? |
A39266 | What time didst thou go to bed last night, Tim? |
A39266 | What wonders and rarities does he afford upon such a common subject? |
A39266 | What wouldest thou expect in a discourse of Government, a trap to catch Sun- beams, or a purse- net for the Moon? |
A39266 | What, Sir, doe you take me for a fool? |
A39266 | What, Tim, art thou so utterly barren, that thou hast neither Divinity, Poetry, nor Grammar within thee? |
A39266 | What, Tim, would''st thou have me goe to School again? |
A39266 | What, because may and can are of the same Mode and Tense, or that possum is Latin for them both? |
A39266 | What, can that be intrinsecally and in reason good or bad, that is made so by Constitution or Canon? |
A39266 | What, doe you find fault to see all kind of knowledge lie fairely before your eyes? |
A39266 | What, dost talk of suppling of me, Tim? |
A39266 | What, shall a child be able to defend that which lay hid for so many Ages, and took me such paines to discover? |
A39266 | What, would you have Arts and Sciences tumbled down together, like coals into a Cellat? |
A39266 | What, would you have a thing good, before there be any such thing at all? |
A39266 | What, would you have had him to have tied up twelve Iudges in a corner of his handkerchief, and brought down Westminster Hall in his trowzes? |
A39266 | What? |
A39266 | What? |
A39266 | Where and in what company did I ever say, that Roger had a right but to a fourth part? |
A39266 | Which of them ever said that any man was actually born a Constable or silk weaver? |
A39266 | Which side? |
A39266 | Who, except Tim, but would easily have apprehended, how that Roger might have a right to it all, notwithstanding Dick to all of it had a right? |
A39266 | Why do you only say seem,& c? |
A39266 | Why doe you laugh, Tim? |
A39266 | Why doe you talk thus? |
A39266 | Why so Tim? |
A39266 | Why so? |
A39266 | Why so? |
A39266 | Why then do you snear, as if you dislik''d my Logick? |
A39266 | Why, Sir, do you like what I now said? |
A39266 | Why, does it? |
A39266 | Why, what do I say there? |
A39266 | Why, what''s the matter now? |
A39266 | Why, who did ever hold self- interest to be the first principle of Nature and Government? |
A39266 | Why, who does not? |
A39266 | Why: doe not all count that well which you count well: or are you a man by your self? |
A39266 | Why? |
A39266 | Why? |
A39266 | Why? |
A39266 | With whom? |
A39266 | Would 〈 … 〉 serve you but just your Patrons? |
A39266 | Yes: I say it; and I am sure no man is able to contradict me: For who is so fit to judge what is good or evil, as the Supreme Power? |
A39266 | and can I, like St. John Baptist''s head, be at all the Parishes in the Nation, at the same time; and hear all the Sermons that were ever preached? |
A39266 | and did not the foreman of the Iury St. Peter say, silver and gold have I none? |
A39266 | and do I exactly remember every Sentence that is in them? |
A39266 | and doe you remember nothing of your coming to see me when I was kept close Prisoner at Basing- house for carrying a Letter privately to his Majesty? |
A39266 | and does not this make thee fret and fume, and dislike all that I have written? |
A39266 | and dost thou think that thou canst ever find out any other reason to make the four men of Pines compound, besides fear? |
A39266 | and how many Hen''s nests would I examine, to pelt his impudent forchead that stands before, and to eggifie his she Asses mane that hangs behind? |
A39266 | and if there be, where''s the Constable, to put it in execution? |
A39266 | and is not this, that I have laid down, full, exact, and compleat? |
A39266 | and was there never yet one in the world, that thought it lawful to alter his Copy? |
A39266 | and wert thou not converted thereby, and fully convinced that the State of Nature was a state of war? |
A39266 | and what did thy use to say again? |
A39266 | because they have not as yet discoursed, made overtures, covenanted? |
A39266 | did ever any of the Philosophers say so before? |
A39266 | did you goe into the bowels and heart blood of Nature to bring up nothing else but this? |
A39266 | doe not I know that a Gentleman is one that keeps a man to quarrel, fight, beat and abuse? |
A39266 | does this become you? |
A39266 | dost think that the happiness and security of all the Kingdoms of the Earth depend upon a jest? |
A39266 | have you bespoak or bought up all the R. Ls in the Nation, that you will not let a man have one? |
A39266 | have you discoursed me into a Bear? |
A39266 | how easie a matter is it for old folks to dote and slaver, and for young ones to be deceived, and lick up the spittle? |
A39266 | is it not all new? |
A39266 | is it that you are descended of some very timorous family; or was your mother buried alive, with two sucking children? |
A39266 | is there any intrinsecal Natural evil in it? |
A39266 | is this the fruits of Mathematicks, long observation, fundamental casting about, and bottoming of things? |
A39266 | is this the principle that you were so many years finding out? |
A39266 | may not I, for all that, have another man that did insist upon it, three quarters of a good statutable English hour together? |
A39266 | not a word further: thou must begin all again: the tenth of March, Tim? |
A39266 | now there never an Horse in all the Countrey that would please you, but after such great boun ● ● you must get away your Pa ● rons Horse? |
A39266 | or is the family so very small, that amongst them all, there should not be one poor dear R. L. that should fall to my share? |
A39266 | there''s nothing left out, is there? |
A39266 | was there never two men in England preached upon the same Text? |
A39266 | what a breed of Reasoners would the World have had? |
A39266 | what can a man spend his time better than to suspect, take heed, be watchfull and afraid? |
A39266 | what dost think, Tim, that I have nothing else to doe, but to hear thee tattle over a company of foppish Similitudes? |
A39266 | what is it that you would have had meant? |
A39266 | what, a man in the Moon, Will with the wisp, Jack with the Lantern? |
A39266 | what? |
A39266 | what? |
A39266 | which sinkes the first Ship, and where will the wind be upon the fifteenth of May? |
A39266 | who would not dye twenty deaths to be akin but to thy little toe? |
A35787 | & c. Where is the Religion? |
A35787 | * What then will you say,( these be his own words,) shall we then eat after the Resurrection? |
A35787 | A ● quo; Roma, quaerenda sunt divina Consilia, nisi ab illis, quibus mysteriorum Dei dispensatio credita est? |
A35787 | And again on the other side, what harm is it to us, to be ignorant, whether Antiquity believed it or not; so long as we know, that the Thing is? |
A35787 | And how comes it to pass, that these Ancient Popes, who alledged these Canons, if they believed these Councils to be both one, did not say so? |
A35787 | And how many such are alledged every day, in our Disputations? |
A35787 | And if he were in an Error in this Particular, why must he Necessarily be in the Right in the other? |
A35787 | And if so, what Reason have they to urge it for such, against the Protestants? |
A35787 | And if they be not one and the same thing, how can any man say, that this is the Real Body and Real Blood of Christ? |
A35787 | And if they were not known to be such then, how can any body imagine, that they should at length come to be such now? |
A35787 | And if we can have no assurance hereof, how can we then account them of any force at all, either for or against us? |
A35787 | And if you were before- hand instructed in the Truth, what need have you then to hear Them, and to desire to be instructed in it, by Them? |
A35787 | And then secondly, How, and in what Cases the Writings of the Fathers may be useful unto us? |
A35787 | And what may not the Hereticks and Schismaticks have been able to do? |
A35787 | And whence is it, that we find in Antiquity no mention at all of many things, which are now in great request amongst us? |
A35787 | And yet for all this, how many odd Opinions do we meet withal in his Books, which are either very trivial, or else are manifestly false? |
A35787 | Are not those Ancient Points of Religion of as great Importance, as these Latter? |
A35787 | Besides, who knows, and can truly inform us, what Date their Writings bear? |
A35787 | But what will you say now, if we make it appear to you, that the Church of Rome it self doth not allow that the Fathers have any such Authority? |
A35787 | But who can assure us that they have not forgotten any thing they should have noted? |
A35787 | But yet, who sees not the reason of it? |
A35787 | But, in case you had not exact skill in the Language, how should you be able to judge of this Interpretation? |
A35787 | Commentarii quid operis habent? |
A35787 | Did they therefore think, that the ● e Books were of sufficient Authority to ground an Article of Faith upon? |
A35787 | Ergò, inquies,& nos post Resurrectionem comesuri sumus? |
A35787 | Fathers, which met here together, touching this Point; which is the most important one, of all those that are at this day controverted betwixt us? |
A35787 | For how is it otherwise possible, that we should be able to judg, whether they have taught Holily, and Wisely? |
A35787 | For otherwise, why should Pope n Leo give this very thing, as a mark to distinguish the Manichees from the Catholicks? |
A35787 | For what a senseless thing is it, to leave them in, where they hurt most; and to raze them out, where they do little hurt? |
A35787 | For where is the Province, or the City, or the Doctor, that hath not boastingly cried up his own Opinions, and Observations, as Apostolical? |
A35787 | For who doth not now see, that this kind of proof hath as much or more difficulty in it, than the Question it self? |
A35787 | For, I beseech you, what strange Philosophy would it be, that should either be ignorant of, or should deny these Principles? |
A35787 | For, how is it possible that we should be able to judge, when they speak as they thought, and when not? |
A35787 | For, to what purpose is it to find, that the Ancients believed it, unless we find withal in their Writings, some Reason of this their Belief? |
A35787 | For, what use would there be of any such thing in pronouncing a Sentence of Judgment, or indeed, in giving ones bare Testimony only to any thing? |
A35787 | For, who knows not what pains it will cost a Man to attain to a perfect knowledge of these two Tongues? |
A35787 | Had he not better to have forborn coming at all? |
A35787 | He that could be ignorant what the Nature of Christ''s Body was, must he Necessarily have a Right Judgment touching the Eucharist? |
A35787 | How came it about, that it should be proposed only by a young fellow, who was a Schismatick too? |
A35787 | How came it to pass, that they were so ignorant of the Weapons, wherewith the Enemies of the Church were to be encountred? |
A35787 | How comes it to pass now, that there is not so much as any the least Trace or Footing of this Custom to be found at this day in the Church of Rome? |
A35787 | How comes it to pass, that seeing thou hast staid behind, thou dost not Communicate of this Table? |
A35787 | How comes it to pass, that they are fain to use so many words, and make tryal of so many tricks, and devices for the clearing of them? |
A35787 | How could they possibly have delivered so many things contrary either to Reason, or to the Scriptures, or to the Fathers? |
A35787 | How could they possibly have seen that; which lay as yet concealed? |
A35787 | How could they possibly measure their Belief by such a Rule, as was not yet visible to the World? |
A35787 | How happened it, that they so either forgot, or else mistook themselves, as they have sometimes done? |
A35787 | How many Authors are there who have changed their Opinions, and yet have not retracted what they had formerly written? |
A35787 | How shall I know( will he reply upon you again) whether this was his private Opinion onely, or not? |
A35787 | How small is the number of those in the Church, who had the Ability, or at least the 〈 ◊ 〉 to write? |
A35787 | How then can we confide in them, unless we examine their Opinions by their Reasons? |
A35787 | Huic; Cui? |
A35787 | If Rome doth indeed bear so great respect to the Fathers, as they would make us believe, why hath it not then retained this Custom? |
A35787 | If all other Evidences had been lost how should we have been able so much as to have ghessed, that any such thing was ever treated of at Chalcedon? |
A35787 | If any Man should now preach this Doctrine to the Romanists, would they not laugh at him, as a Ridiculous Fellow? |
A35787 | If this Argument of theirs be of any force at all, who sees not that it clearly proves that which we maintain in this particular? |
A35787 | Is it more Necessary to Salvation, to know Him Sacrificed upon the Altar, than Really Suffering upon the Cross? |
A35787 | Is not this all one, as if he in plam terms ranked second Marriages among unclean and polluted things? |
A35787 | Is there less danger in being ignorant touching the Nature of God, than touching the Authority of the Pope? |
A35787 | May not this be called rather Sporting with, than Expounding of the Scriptures? |
A35787 | Miraris si contra te fratrum scandala concitentur; cum i d nescire te jures, quod Christi Ecclesiae se scire fatentut? |
A35787 | Now I would very fain have any one inform me, how it is possible for us to know this? |
A35787 | Now hearing him speak thus, who would not believe this to be a true Story? |
A35787 | Now how doth this agree with that large Discourse, which he hath made in another place, to a quite contrary sense? |
A35787 | Now if thou cuttest off such Sentences as these, out of the Indexes of these Holy Fathers; why dost thou not as well raze them out of the Text also? |
A35787 | Now what can be said more expresly against Transubstantiation? |
A35787 | Num diversae interpretationis,& contrariorum inter se sensuum tenebitur reus, qui in uno opere quod edisserit, expositiones posuerit plurimorum? |
A35787 | Omne deinceps humanum genus quibus animarum censetur exordiis? |
A35787 | Or if thou leavest them in the one, why dost thou blot them out in the other? |
A35787 | Or, is it not possible that they may have held them, though they did not write in defence of the same? |
A35787 | Or, may they not perhaps have written also in de ● ence of them, and their Books have been since lost? |
A35787 | Or, why should they have used more in those Points which are at this day controverted amongst us? |
A35787 | Qu ● s dabit te frater fratrem m ● hi, lactantem ubera matris meae? |
A35787 | Quam stolidi autem Judaei qui interrogant, Hic peccavit, an Parentes? |
A35787 | Quis enim tam hebes,& sic in scribendo rudis est, ut idem laudet& damnet? |
A35787 | Quis negabit Deum corpus esse, etsi Spiritus est? |
A35787 | Quis omissa causa in superslua criminum objectione vers ● tus est? |
A35787 | Quorsum( inquies) haec tam longo repetita principio? |
A35787 | Quòd si non sunt idem, quomodo verum Corpus Christi dicitur,& verus sanguis? |
A35787 | Rather by these Forgeries which have come to our knowledge, who can doubt, but that there have been many other the like, which we are ignorant of? |
A35787 | Sentisne quid taceam, quod aestu ● nti pectori verba non commodem? |
A35787 | Si in judicii severitatem capax illa Dei Virgo ventura est, desiderare quis audebit à Deo judicari? |
A35787 | Thou seest me in a combat, and in peril of my life; and dost thou come with thy grave Instructions, like some Reverend Schoolmaster? |
A35787 | Tu me stantem in p ● aelio,& de vita per ● clitan ● em, studiosus magister doceas? |
A35787 | Ub; religio? |
A35787 | What Text of Scripture, or what Reason hath this Man alledged, to prove the Truth of what he hath proposed? |
A35787 | What can the meaning be of so strange a way of proceeding in so Wise Men? |
A35787 | What can you say to this? |
A35787 | What could have been written more Coldly, or more disagreeing with the Truth and Simplicity of the Gospel? |
A35787 | What could he have said more expresly, in confirmation of our Assertion before laid down? |
A35787 | What have these our so great Adorers of Antiquity now done with these Ceremonies? |
A35787 | What is become of the rigid and severe Rules of those Ancient Times? |
A35787 | What is become of those Ancient Laws? |
A35787 | What( saith he) is the business of a Commentary? |
A35787 | Where are those Customs then used in the Ordination of the Clergy? |
A35787 | Where are those Eight, those Ten, those Twenty years of Penance, which they sometimes imposed upon Offenders? |
A35787 | Where are those so mysterious Ceremonies in Baptism, and in the Administration of the Eucharist? |
A35787 | Where is the Ancient Discipline? |
A35787 | Where is the Milk, or the Honey, or the Eucharist, which the Ancient Fathers were wo nt to administer to all, immediately after Baptism? |
A35787 | Where is the Reverence which is due from you to your Ancestors? |
A35787 | Where shall we find a M that after this their Failing, can have the courage to adventure upon so Difficult, and so Intricate an undertaking? |
A35787 | Whereas in the second kind? |
A35787 | Whether the Bread which they shew us, be to deceive, or to feed us? |
A35787 | Whether the Problems they propose be solid, or slippery ones? |
A35787 | Whether their Positions be Dogmatical, or Oeconomical? |
A35787 | Whether they mean really what they say, or whether they make but a flourish only? |
A35787 | Whether they were gathered green, or were suffered to ripen upon the Tree? |
A35787 | Whether they were the Fruits of their Spring, or of their Summer, or of their Autumn? |
A35787 | Whether they were their own particular Opinions onely, or the publick Sense of their Age? |
A35787 | Who can assure us,( may the Protestants further add) that the Articles which we reject, are not of this kind? |
A35787 | Who can promise himself success there, where so Great a Council hath failed? |
A35787 | Who could believe the truth of this bold attempt, had not S. Hierome himself related the Story, and made complaint of the Injury done him therein? |
A35787 | Who ever heard a Judge excuse himself, by reason of the shortness of the Time? |
A35787 | Who hath not observed the strange Hyperboles of S. Chysostome, S. Hilary, S. Ambrose, and the like? |
A35787 | Who is there now that will pass his word for him, that he himself was one of this number? |
A35787 | Who knoweth not that a Dwarf, mounted upon a Giants shoulders, looketh higher, and seeth further, than the Giant himself? |
A35787 | Who knows now, what these Bishops were; and whether they deserved any such usage at S. Hieromes hands, or no? |
A35787 | Who sees not, that in this place he would have said, the Phoenix? |
A35787 | Who sees not, that these Matters are of equal Importance? |
A35787 | Who shall assure us, that he was not either an Heretick himself, or at least a Favourer of Hereticks? |
A35787 | Who shall regulate us, amidst such Contradictions as these? |
A35787 | Who will ever be perswaded to believe, that they held them as Necessary to Salvation? |
A35787 | Who will warrant us, that all Christendom in his time embraced all his opinions, and had no other of their own? |
A35787 | Who would be able to perform this, if he should undertake it? |
A35787 | Who would believe but that the Breviaries and Missals should have escaped their Razour? |
A35787 | Who would believe now, but that this Declaration of the Canon of the Scriptures was at that time received by all Christian Churches? |
A35787 | Why may not the same thing have hapned to them in the one, that hath so manifestly befallen them in the other? |
A35787 | Why should we not rather honestly confess, that their Opinions were also different, as well as their words? |
A35787 | Why then should we take so much pains, and trouble our selves so to no purpose, in reconciling these men, and making them speak all the same thing? |
A35787 | Would not any man, that hears these words, believe these three Fathers to have been Iconoclasts? |
A35787 | acknowledge all of them the same Gospels? |
A35787 | aedificata destruat,& destructa aedificet? |
A35787 | and how many hath the False Dealings of Men either wholly suppressed, or else corrupted, and altered? |
A35787 | and likewise, that for adding the greater Authority to them, some have had the boldness to add in some places what they conceived to be wanting? |
A35787 | and that inequality of Pulse and Breath, that we may observe in one and the same Author, in a quarter of an Hours reading? |
A35787 | and that such Testimonies are as Obscure, as the Controverted Opinions themselves? |
A35787 | and what Design, but of Victory only? |
A35787 | and which hath not used his utmost endeavour to gain them the Repute of being Vniversal? |
A35787 | and who would not be ready to understand this Narration in the literal sense? |
A35787 | as likewise touching the Power of the Prelates, to procure them the greater respect and obedience from their People? |
A35787 | find therein all of them Great and High Mysteries? |
A35787 | hope all of them for one and the same Immortality? |
A35787 | or touching the State of the Faithful in the Resurrection, than touching the Punishment of Souls in Purgatory? |
A35787 | preach one and the same Sanctification? |
A35787 | quae verba non sensuum? |
A35787 | qui sensus non victorix? |
A35787 | si in nullo exorbitaverunt? |
A35787 | that amidst so great diversity in Worship, they all adore one and the same Christ? |
A35787 | the Cup of His Passion, than the Cup of His Communion? |
A35787 | the Real Qualities of the Body of Christ, than the Nature of the Eucharist? |
A35787 | ubi veneratio majoribus debita à vobis? |
A35787 | what Parts are necessarily required in this case? |
A35787 | what word in them but hath its Design? |
A35787 | wouldst thou therefore demonstrate those Propositions that are pressed upon thee, to be False? |
A35787 | 〈 … 〉 they have not razed out those things 〈 ◊ 〉 which were most necessary, and most useful in their Science? |
A21107 | & That whervnto when they haue once put their hands, they may not looke backe? |

A21107 | & c. who goeth a warfare at any time of his owne cost? |
A21107 | & fit maintenance for such men? |
A21107 | & made no conscience to pay such Tithes as the lawes both of the Church and land informed and required them to pay? |
A21107 | & should suffer them( as hitherto in many places) to liue by the curtesie of the people, no due maintenence prouided for them? |
A21107 | & take( as they tearme it) their good wills, as if he were their al ● ● esman? |
A21107 | & thinketh not that he hath sayd enough,& spoken very much to the purpose when he hath made some such protestation? |
A21107 | & wilt thou not giue to God the maker of al things any part of his owne? |
A21107 | ( for that I willed before to bee noted) what? |
A21107 | 13. taking an argument a simili, from them that ministred in the temple about holy things, and waited at the altar, how dooth he conclude? |
A21107 | 2 Further, looke vpon the vse whereunto the tithes are assigned by God and man: what is it but the maintainance of the minister? |
A21107 | 4 But where is any such Tithe payd? |
A21107 | 4. or 5. times so many parts or more to himselfe for his charges? |
A21107 | 4? |
A21107 | 7. reasoneth thus: Quis militat propriis stipendiis? |
A21107 | 8. doth in the person of God paraphrastically explane it thus? |
A21107 | 8. where againe thus the Lord expostu ● ateth with his people: Will a man spoile his Gods? |
A21107 | 8: where God speaketh thus: Will a man spoyle his Gods? |
A21107 | 9. Who gooes a warfare at anie time of his owne cost? |
A21107 | A heathen man being asked what good hee had gotten by his Philosophie? |
A21107 | Againe, what is this but to enuy at another mans prosperitie? |
A21107 | All confesse that such allowance is now incompetent: but who are they that amend it? |
A21107 | And a little after in the same place, in the person of God, he speaketh thus: what? |
A21107 | And hath not the minister many times of one, euen a meane man, ten, yea twentie times as much as the Schoole- maister for one Scholler? |
A21107 | And hath our age alone the lucke, to espye Nodum in Scirpo, an ouersight that had escaped the eyes of God and men before? |
A21107 | And how hath the minister a part of all a mans goods? |
A21107 | And in the same place reproouing the people of his time for not paying tithes, hee hath these words, Quomodo abundat Iusti ● ● a nostra? |
A21107 | And in the sermon before alleadged hee saith directly; What wouldest thou doe, if taking to himselfe the nine parts, God had left thee but the tenth? |
A21107 | And indeed what other is the Church but a Diuinitie- schoole, the minister a Lecturer, and the hearers schollers? |
A21107 | And is it not a straunge thing, That should bee thought to bee a course fit and good enough for the minister, which is good for no bodie else? |
A21107 | And is pouertie the true cause of this? |
A21107 | And saith our Apostle, what hast thou O man what euer thou bee, and whatsoeuer thou haue, which thou hast not receiued? |
A21107 | And shall not the fault bee onely ours, if wee be left without teaching, without instruction, and consequentlie without saluation? |
A21107 | And were it not a great benefit to them, if they might continue as they doe in many places, that is, giuing that way but what they lust? |
A21107 | And were it not lamentable( what if I sayd intollerable?) |
A21107 | And what Ministers of our Church doe they more fauour, then such as bee ignorant and simple? |
A21107 | And what charge, what burthen is it to the Citizens of London, to pay as they do by the house? |
A21107 | And what doth he in this case but take wages of one, to do ● another seruice? |
A21107 | And what is this but as that, a kinde of Impropriating? |
A21107 | And what is this, but willfully to be blinde? |
A21107 | And what kind of tithes were they? |
A21107 | And what reason is it that a minister should not expect for, and receiue the like in his profession? |
A21107 | And what reason will excuse him that with- holdes from the needy his necessarie Liuing, least happely hee abuse it to surfetting and drunkenn ● s? |
A21107 | And what remedie? |
A21107 | And what saith the Lord? |
A21107 | And what? |
A21107 | And who can shew vs, that the godly are freed from that dutie since the law, which they owed to God before? |
A21107 | And why to Leui& his sonnes? |
A21107 | And why? |
A21107 | And why? |
A21107 | And why? |
A21107 | Are not their labours and studies as deare vnto them? |
A21107 | Are they not Pastours in the same Church, and members of the same kingdome? |
A21107 | Are they not members of the same Church and kingdome,& their soules redeemed with the same price? |
A21107 | As a priuate person in paying tithes, what other thing did he, but what was euery godly mans dutie to doo? |
A21107 | Bee there not many that thinke twenty pounds a yeare enoughe? |
A21107 | But can not we be thankfull to God, though we offer vnto him none of our goods? |
A21107 | But hath not common reason preuailed there against so farre, that now a dayes there is scarce any that wil either accept or offer it? |
A21107 | But if Christ had right to tithes before the law, hath he not the same right also since the law, in the time of the Gospell? |
A21107 | But say I these things according vnto man? |
A21107 | But say I, who is in fault for this? |
A21107 | But to what vse? |
A21107 | But what are these to vs? |
A21107 | But what is all this to vs, that be ministers of the Gospell? |
A21107 | But what may wee thinke of it? |
A21107 | But who shall bee iudge in such a case, what is too- much, or or what but enough? |
A21107 | But why is it not fit he should know, in some generall sort at least, how god doth blesse or not blesse, prosper or not prosper his people? |
A21107 | But ye say Where in haue we spoyled thee? |
A21107 | But yee said wherein haue we spoyled thee? |
A21107 | But, what kinde of Tithe? |
A21107 | Come home into thine owne house, will thy seruant trust to thy curtesy for his seruice? |
A21107 | Doe they complaine thereof? |
A21107 | Doe they finde it a beggering& vndooing vnto them? |
A21107 | Doo you thinke within a few yeares, there would bee found halfe the number that now is? |
A21107 | Doth knowledge and vnderstanding dwell onely with vs? |
A21107 | For are not our goods his, aswell as our daies, and as our selues? |
A21107 | For by what arguments may it euer bee prooued, that that law of Tithes was euer by God abrogated? |
A21107 | For how could it be, that all people, euen those that knew not the true God, yet should herein consent with the true worshippers? |
A21107 | For is there any law that saith: None shall pay Tithes but such as haue lands, cattell,& c? |
A21107 | For our present daies, what doo men account now to be competent? |
A21107 | For the question is not, what may( in mens sparing conceits) suffice such or such a man? |
A21107 | For what good will there not come thereof? |
A21107 | For what is this but to liue by the sweat of other mens browes? |
A21107 | For what shall they do, if by reason of any impotencie befalling them, they neede a Coadiutour? |
A21107 | For who can discharge a man from obedience to God? |
A21107 | For who can worke& labour that hath not food cōuenient to strengthen his body? |
A21107 | For who is there but will allow his horse prouander, that hee may trauell well? |
A21107 | For who is, or wil be content to bee rated to any payment more then the rest of his neighbours of like state and worth? |
A21107 | For who should make a iust lawe, if not Iustice it selfe? |
A21107 | For, needes not his study to be greater? |
A21107 | Goe into all Courts of iudgement, haue not euery one their knowne and seuerall fees? |
A21107 | Goe into the City, haue not all officers their certaine salaries? |
A21107 | Goe into the country, hath not euery labourer his ordinary wages? |
A21107 | Goe out into the field, hath not euery Captaine, Lieutenant, Sergeant, Soldiour,& c. his knowen pay? |
A21107 | Haue they other meanes equiualent? |
A21107 | He receiueth of vs the tithes and offerings as his Sacrū vectigal his sacred tribute, his holy rent: and what doth hee therewith? |
A21107 | He vouchsafeth to demaund the first fruites& tenthes of that thou hast from him, and doest thou couetously deny him? |
A21107 | Herevpon I aske first, whether in the person of this one Pharise, bee not expressed vnto vs the actions of them all? |
A21107 | How did the Israelites maintaine their priests and Leuits? |
A21107 | How right? |
A21107 | How to our profit? |
A21107 | I meane, if in the one place the minister hath all the prediall tithes kept from him, and in th''other all the personall? |
A21107 | I would know what nation in the world, did euer honour God, and did not thinke it a point of their duetie to doo him honour with their goods? |
A21107 | If Tithes bee not it, I aske first whether it bee more or lesse then Tithes? |
A21107 | If any therefore do make a question, why Tithes are payd? |
A21107 | If any therefore doe make a question, why tithes are to be paid? |
A21107 | If they can no more be without a Minister then the other? |
A21107 | If they will aunswere more; is there any hope that disclaiming Tithes, in steed thereof a greater& richer portion may bee obteined? |
A21107 | If townesmen haue as great neede of teaching as they in the countrey or rather more? |
A21107 | If wee goe this way to worke, what good comes there, of this course? |
A21107 | In all meetings& assemblies, hath he not his place before the schole- maister? |
A21107 | In all reason and equitie, in all reputation& account, is not the minister of the Church, before the maister of the schoole? |
A21107 | In what sorte or measure? |
A21107 | Is it a small matter I pray thee that thy vinepresse bee blessed? |
A21107 | Is it likely their School- maisters were maintained in that liberall maner? |
A21107 | Is it not so, That the meanest benefice in the land almost( that is whole) is better in reuenues then the best schoole? |
A21107 | Is it not their Vltimum Refugium? |
A21107 | Is not housekeeping, is not diet and apparell, more chargeable vnto him? |
A21107 | Is this condigne reward for such studies& expenses? |
A21107 | It is not in their power to disburden him of his charge any way:& why then should they presume or attempt to abridge him of his due anie way? |
A21107 | Iudge then, what reason or conscience is it, to keep backe the ministers maintenance which is his wages? |
A21107 | Knowest thou that whatsoeuer thou hast is Gods? |
A21107 | Let all things bee considered well and weighed in equall ballance, and what hardnes, what extremitie, is there in this? |
A21107 | Let it bee graunted that then it was so ▪ Dooth it follow it must bee so now? |
A21107 | Nay rather hath hee not need of much more? |
A21107 | Nay rather, doo not many of them of their owne liberalitie and loue to the Worde, augment and enlarge it? |
A21107 | Now if the matter be well lookt into, what difference is there twixt the one and the other? |
A21107 | O homines stulti,& c. O men vnwise, what hurte doth God commaunde,( in demaunding the tenth) that hee should not deserue to bee hearde? |
A21107 | OF by custome and composition for euery thing hee doth possesse, why these shall not pay of anie one thing almost the tenth? |
A21107 | Or that vnto our forefathers& other auncient Christians, That they liued vnder lawes lawlesly? |
A21107 | Or, that God which accepted Tithes, as his sacred Right then, hath reiected it now? |
A21107 | Quid auid ● supputas? |
A21107 | Secondly, I demaund who shall( if the word of God doo not) determine what is competent? |
A21107 | See now good Reader, This is that Durus Sermo, that hard saying, that vnreasonable motion, whereof who can abide the hearing? |
A21107 | Shal not the Iudge of all the world doe right? |
A21107 | Shall the Clergie? |
A21107 | Shall the Laitie? |
A21107 | Shall they longer then they be able personallie to performe their duties, be behoulding to the almes- house? |
A21107 | Si tardius dare peccatū est, quanto peius est non dedi ● ● e? |
A21107 | Specially what profiteth it a man, if hee win the whole world and lose his owne soule? |
A21107 | That such men, graduates, Preachers,& c. should be faine to serue,( as oft they doo) like those hedge priests, for x. pounds a yeare? |
A21107 | Therefore why should we doe otherwise then others doe? |
A21107 | They that had lands& goods sold them, and laid downe the price at the Apostles feet: and so distribution was made; by whom? |
A21107 | To whom? |
A21107 | Tradesmen and artificers to be accountable for tithes? |
A21107 | Were ministers tyed to mens good wills here? |
A21107 | What dooth the minister teach thee? |
A21107 | What is it to pay faithfully? |
A21107 | What is that to tradesmen, artificers and other like, which liue by their imployments, by their labour and industry? |
A21107 | What is then to bee expected, but that they will fauour themselues enough, and too much? |
A21107 | What it is to pay faithfully? |
A21107 | What ought to bee his reward? |
A21107 | What, from beastes to men? |
A21107 | What? |
A21107 | What? |
A21107 | What? |
A21107 | What? |
A21107 | Where are able teachers at this day most wanting? |
A21107 | Where doe such commōly desire to nestle themselues, but in some obscure and blind places where is little or no preaching? |
A21107 | Whereupon dost thou greedily reckon? |
A21107 | Who can shew vs any other? |
A21107 | Who hath made them iudges aboue others what is a sufficiēt liuing for the minister? |
A21107 | Who knowes not, That by Gods appointment, besides diuers other things that fell to their share, they had the tenth of all things? |
A21107 | Why do you transgresse the Commandement of God by your tradition, or Custome? |
A21107 | Why hath Sathan filled thine heart, that thou shouldest lie vnto the holy Ghost? |
A21107 | Why haue yee agreed together to tempt the spirit of the Lord? |
A21107 | Why then is it not reason they yeelde thereunto the due and appointed maintenance as well as they? |
A21107 | Why then should any sort of people denie or withhold it? |
A21107 | Why then? |
A21107 | Wilt thou lay out the tenth? |
A21107 | Yee haue spoiled me, saith the Lord: wherein? |
A21107 | You haue offered that which was torne and the lame and the sicke: should I accept this at your hands ● aith the Lord? |
A21107 | a full Tenth of all hee receiues, as dooth the husbandman of all that which to him increaseth? |
A21107 | a man can scant finde a rich man, a man I meane that is rich, not so much in worldly goods, as in good workes, in abilitie as in deeds? |
A21107 | and Christianly& thankefully with God? |
A21107 | and as it were for the nonce casting a mist before their owne eies, to suffer themselues to bee deceiued? |
A21107 | and had another tenth for euery child they taught? |
A21107 | and had like part as any other had? |
A21107 | and hee bee inforced to that kinde of dealing, which all others disclaime and vtterly refuse? |
A21107 | and how dangerous and hurtfull for them that they be not? |
A21107 | and in the latter particularly of such as arise by tillage? |
A21107 | and in this point, of the whole nation? |
A21107 | and see that they haue cause to curse the time, that euer such a course was taken betwixt them and their ministers? |
A21107 | and then all they which for so many ages past,( as it were) vno ore& animo, with one minde and one mouth agreed, The Tenth to be but enough? |
A21107 | and thereby as well the one as the other is a fit receptacle for only the worst and vnworthiest Pastour? |
A21107 | and where bee the simplest and meanest ministers commonly found? |
A21107 | and where is most vse of maintenance, there least bee yeelded? |
A21107 | are wee stronger then hee? |
A21107 | are wee wiser then he? |
A21107 | but an halfe- peny at a time? |
A21107 | but that the one as if they were the ofspring of Eli, should bee faine to crouch for a peece of siluer, and a morsel of bread? |
A21107 | but, what in duety and conscience euery man, or any man ought to paye? |
A21107 | can a man so liue? |
A21107 | decree that which is equal and right, if not equitie it selfe? |
A21107 | doo they not then openly, without any colour at all, set open the doore vnto extreame impietie& sacriledge? |
A21107 | gaue the ● r superiors leaue to decree what they would, but tooke libertie to themselues to obserue what they listed? |
A21107 | had all at their owne disposition? |
A21107 | honour God with none of his goods? |
A21107 | is it little that God of all thine increase dooth first receiue his part, the tenth? |
A21107 | is it not easie for men to conceiue, If they will not be blin ●, how expedient it were for other places to be prouided for, as it is? |
A21107 | is it not reason then, as hee is before him in degree, so hee should bee equall with him at least, in maintenance? |
A21107 | is it not( where the best need to bee) in townes and Cities? |
A21107 | is need alwaies iustly pretended? |
A21107 | is there not greater cause of hospitalitie? |
A21107 | men to pay tithes of their labour, and of their priuate gaines? |
A21107 | must be a keeper of hospitalitie, and so bee able to entertaine others, aswellas to liue himselfe? |
A21107 | nothing but his accustomed offerings? |
A21107 | now haue not townesmen vse and neede of the Gospel? |
A21107 | of teachers, as well as husbandmen? |
A21107 | of the ministerie? |
A21107 | of this I meane, That the minister should stand to euery mans curtesie? |
A21107 | or dispense with those whom God doth bind? |
A21107 | or dooth hee not rather in the first clause speake generally of all goods whatsoeuer? |
A21107 | or giuen them power to pare off the superfluitie thereof? |
A21107 | or his oxe fodder enough, that he may plough well? |
A21107 | or of some part of goods, bee de ● rauded of other sortes? |
A21107 | or onely this present age? |
A21107 | or order a thing wisely and excellently, if not wisedome it selfe? |
A21107 | or rather being duely and well pay 〈 … 〉 of his parishioners( the husbandmen) serue the other, the tradesmen for nought? |
A21107 | or that ministers complaine without cause, and be already euery where duly& sufficiently prouided for? |
A21107 | or who feedeth a flocke, and eateth not of the milke of the flocke? |
A21107 | or( more rightly to speake) both to sow and to reape in teares? |
A21107 | purposely to abide in errour? |
A21107 | reward the minister that giues him spirituall things, with none of his temporall? |
A21107 | saith not our Apostle the same also? |
A21107 | seeing Wee refuse to entertaine such as should teach vs, and count the cost and charge thereof( as we tearme it) better saued? |
A21107 | so may I say, What? |
A21107 | that giueth the townesman power to get riches, aswel as the countryman? |
A21107 | that maketh men to prospe ●, whether it bee by sea or by land? |
A21107 | that professing religion and pretending a zeale vnto the Gospel, we should yet hold in contēpt& vile account the Ministers of the Gospel? |
A21107 | the place of their rest? |
A21107 | thee I say, thy wife, thy children, thy seruants, and the straunger that is within thy gates? |
A21107 | they neede some extraordinary succour? |
A21107 | to deny or debarre him his due, which is his hire? |
A21107 | vectigal, if it be not Tithes? |
A21107 | what euery priuate person? |
A21107 | what wouldest thou doo if reseruing the 9. partes to himselfe, hee had left thee only the tenth? |
A21107 | what? |
A21107 | when as they were the treasurers for the whole Church? |
A21107 | who can in his labour doo anything workmanlike& artificially, that wanteth time, tooles& instruments conuenient and fit for the purpose? |
A21107 | who can trauaile a iourny that hath not wherewith to defray his expenses? |
A21107 | who is there that paies them? |
A21107 | who planteth a vineyard,& eateth not of the fruite thereof? |
A21107 | why should they not maintaine him aswell as the other? |
A21107 | why should wee not then honour him with a speciall part of the one, as well as of the other? |
A21107 | why then, where there is greatest need, should there bee meanest help? |
A21107 | will any workman worke with thee, either by the day or at taske, without agreement what to haue? |
A21107 | wilt thow lay out little, and receiue for it more? |
A21107 | wouldest thou put out thy goods to increase? |
A21107 | yea, where other men sow in teares and reape in ioy, shall wee bee infor ● ed to sow in ioy, and reape in teares? |
A21107 | yet who almost hath not such in his mouth? |
A27046 | & c. Why not an Oath of Allegiance to make one a Coblar? |
A27046 | & c. and those that sell Perriwigs, Pide- silks and Ribbons? |
A27046 | ( And had he proved it, is that a justification of the Liturgy?) |
A27046 | 10. you seem to defend: and 1. you say[ What is this more, than some that writ for the Kings Cause in the late Wars professed?] |
A27046 | ? |
A27046 | A known falshood, if a Question may be false: What matter of Fact shall ever come to Posterity by such hands without falsification? |
A27046 | A man that never saw me: why did he not cite Bishop Brambal''s proof? |
A27046 | Alas, Brother, did you shew this to any man before you Printed it? |
A27046 | Alas, how fell the good man under this temptation? |
A27046 | Alas, will the good man turn Papist or Infidel, unless the Universal Church and a Diocesane have the same specifying difference, or formal Head? |
A27046 | Am I therefore a Conformist? |
A27046 | And I pray you, what number of Sinners must go to prove a Religion, Creed, or Articles false? |
A27046 | And are all these Fathers and Christians damn''d? |
A27046 | And are these his saving truths? |
A27046 | And are you sure that your Conformists also are damned? |
A27046 | And by what means shall any Church or Party under Heaven defend their Religion against such a Censurer and Disputant as you are? |
A27046 | And can one and the same thing have two different Essences, beings, and definitions? |
A27046 | And can you insist on such passages thus against your sight, when your Error is detected? |
A27046 | And did not all my tedious writings convince you before now? |
A27046 | And do not all Christians? |
A27046 | And doth he say Yea, or Nay? |
A27046 | And had the Text those contrary senses? |
A27046 | And hath not he forsaken you also? |
A27046 | And hath not the same Collect the same sense on the next days? |
A27046 | And have you now vindicated the Doctrine of the chief Prelatists any better than by disowning them? |
A27046 | And how came we to be less free than our Ancestors that made such Offices? |
A27046 | And how long it was before the Christians had many considerable Schools, much less Universities? |
A27046 | And how silly a shift is all this covered with? |
A27046 | And if we are taken for intollerable Malefactors, is not undeceiving our Accusers and Haters a necessary means of Peace? |
A27046 | And indeed, do you loath as much the altering of your Church Government as the Kings, and yet be loyal? |
A27046 | And is Communicating in the Lords Supper all the Conformity that is scrupled? |
A27046 | And is it hypocrisie then to say, I feared to displease you? |
A27046 | And is it not credible that every man loveth himself, and is unwilling to be ruined? |
A27046 | And is not that true? |
A27046 | And is that no difference? |
A27046 | And is that unequal? |
A27046 | And is the Captain a Troop, or the Pastor a Church, if he be the gatherer of it? |
A27046 | And is there no diversity in parte essentiae,( as in subalternis) where there is not a diversity in totâ essentia,( as there is in summis generibus?) |
A27046 | And must Christ bear such a charge as well as I? |
A27046 | And must you not Assent and Consent to all things in it? |
A27046 | And next, why did you not prove that we hold those rebellious Genevian Principles? |
A27046 | And our Question is not, what Party of Lads, or Apprentices, or Women did clamour against Bishops,? |
A27046 | And quid inde? |
A27046 | And so, whether the word Church here signifies but one Species? |
A27046 | And this Talk needs a Confutation? |
A27046 | And though I urge him, he will not answer what I said of the Question, Who shall judge whether the Minister be faithful? |
A27046 | And was it possible that you should think that this made for you? |
A27046 | And was that before the raising of the Army? |
A27046 | And were you willing here to be understood? |
A27046 | And what Doctrine is it to say, Christs Body is one; not as one is opposed to multitude, but to division and destruction? |
A27046 | And what a jumble of swearing and unswearing would you have us make? |
A27046 | And what else is it that we say, but the Using without Approving, satisfieth not the imposition? |
A27046 | And what got the People by that scruple? |
A27046 | And what if he can not be their Governour without their consent, doth this give them any part in governing? |
A27046 | And what if they do? |
A27046 | And what men the common Presbyters were; yea, and the Bishops for the most part? |
A27046 | And what more necessary to unite us against the common Adversaries? |
A27046 | And what need we more, were not the Parliament Lay- men? |
A27046 | And what of that? |
A27046 | And what saith he? |
A27046 | And what temerity is it to feign men to wrong Christ by that which was his Institution, and so judged and used in all the Churches? |
A27046 | And what then? |
A27046 | And what then? |
A27046 | And what''s all this to our Controversie? |
A27046 | And when I never had a hand in putting any such men out, and have kept many of your Party in: What room after this for such a Question? |
A27046 | And where should I begin but with the first? |
A27046 | And who knoweth not that proximity is but dispositio materiae, and not the differencing form? |
A27046 | And whose practice must it be that is the Exposition? |
A27046 | And why must my Ministry lie on a thing beyond my knowledge? |
A27046 | And why? |
A27046 | And will true Conscience be convinced by such Arguments? |
A27046 | And will you defend or own all that then was confessed by them? |
A27046 | And will you so grosly dispute down Non- conformity? |
A27046 | And would they also repent and change their minds, if they were alive? |
A27046 | Anne putares? |
A27046 | Answer, Is this proving? |
A27046 | Answer, Still worse and worse: what Confusion is here? |
A27046 | Are Conformists come to that? |
A27046 | Are Presbyterians all for Excommunicating Kings? |
A27046 | Are Rubricks of no use? |
A27046 | Are not Bishops and Laicks partes heterogeneae? |
A27046 | Are not Christ and Christians, the King and the Subjects of the Universal Church, partes heterogeneae, in esse politico relativo? |
A27046 | Are not diversa distinguishable as well as opposita? |
A27046 | Are not the words universal? |
A27046 | Are not these words plain? |
A27046 | Are not whole stones part of Mountains? |
A27046 | Are such Doctrines of certain Faith no parts of the Book? |
A27046 | Are they not Relative opposita? |
A27046 | Are they not worthy to be silenced and branded as you have done, that can resist such Light? |
A27046 | Are we guilty of that Mistake, who Take it, and Write for it? |
A27046 | Are we not to do it in every partaking of the Lords Supper? |
A27046 | Are we, I say, we now living, and silenced, answerable for all that any Presbyterian holdeth, any more than you are for what Hooker holdeth? |
A27046 | Are your Logicks above my skill to answer? |
A27046 | Are your ways here equal too? |
A27046 | Are your words like Cyphers, that change their power by such additions? |
A27046 | As if the King be contrary to himself, if his Kingdom and a Corporation or School be not of the same species? |
A27046 | As to your doubt, whether England infected not Scotland? |
A27046 | Barclay and Grotius make? |
A27046 | But I pray you dream not, that I take all the old Ministry for such as these? |
A27046 | But I think the King may not Administer Sacraments or Spiritual Discipline himself: Which of our Kings did it? |
A27046 | But all your ways are just and equal: But I pray you, why was no Article about Excommunicating Kings offered us as a Test? |
A27046 | But did they not increase and multiply? |
A27046 | But do you believe therefore that there are no subordinate Species of Churches and Honour on Earth? |
A27046 | But doth that prove that there are no subordinate Societies in these? |
A27046 | But fie, Sirs, why will you talk of[ straining Oaths, and turning plain Oaths into Snares, ana ● allowing no Interpreters?] |
A27046 | But how heedlesly do you read? |
A27046 | But how long since after Edge- Hill Fight? |
A27046 | But if Episcopal men are so unstable and simple to be drawn into such a War by a few Non- conformists, why do you not acknowledge it? |
A27046 | But if all the Christian world be of the same mind, do they all set up Atheism, and are you only free? |
A27046 | But if it must needs be so, I pray dispute no more against the Non- conformists, or dispute against them better by your Lives, than you have done? |
A27046 | But is this the Question? |
A27046 | But is this true? |
A27046 | But it is not these Ends that will serve to prove a War lawful? |
A27046 | But nobis non licet, Must we be Silenced and ruined for want of such Charity? |
A27046 | But the Question is, Whether these be such? |
A27046 | But what Party it was that raised the War? |
A27046 | But what am I doing? |
A27046 | But what good will it do the Reader, to have this mans Falshoods detected and numbred? |
A27046 | But what if all this had been true? |
A27046 | But what if the Bishop spake as falsely, as if he had said that I pleaded for Mahomet? |
A27046 | But what if the first Non- Conformists erred? |
A27046 | But what meant he to say[ should it be practised?] |
A27046 | But what were the parts they had to act? |
A27046 | But what''s all this to our Case in hand?] |
A27046 | But what''s next? |
A27046 | But what''s this to the Case? |
A27046 | But where did the Lord Digby say it? |
A27046 | But where is it that I said, that these honest Conformists sin avowedly, delaberately, and against knowledge? |
A27046 | But where''s his proof? |
A27046 | But who accused them? |
A27046 | But why talk you of none being Interpreters? |
A27046 | But will you falsly accuse the part that is good for the part that is evil? |
A27046 | But you come to the quick, and say,[ Is there no Communion but personal? |
A27046 | But( saith he) may not a man be a Shepherd by calling and occupation, unless he have a Flock, as well as a Physician? |
A27046 | But, saith he, Why not à Church- Covenant for all other Duties? |
A27046 | But, saith he,[ This makes against you — Can any man forbid these people from being Members of the Particular Church that are of the Universal?] |
A27046 | Can you believe this? |
A27046 | Can you not forbear this ill custome a few Lines together? |
A27046 | Can you prove that I am for Silencing faithful Ministers, and making partition separating hedges in the Vineyard of Christ? |
A27046 | Christ and a Bishop are heterogeneous: Yea, a Diocesane and a Parish- Priest: have you proved that they are not? |
A27046 | Could it have been proved, would not the Duke of Buckingham have alledged it against his Adversaries? |
A27046 | Could that be the Cause or Controversie which they were both agreed in? |
A27046 | Did I? |
A27046 | Did ever Christian before you, deny particular Churches to be distinct policies, and parts of the Universal? |
A27046 | Did he not tell you that the Copy was interlined with Hookers own hand, as approving it? |
A27046 | Did not even the Westminster- Assembly of old Conformists forsake it assoon as they could? |
A27046 | Did not we live in the Country with them? |
A27046 | Did such men as Dr. Twisse, Mr. Herle, Mr. Gataker, Mr. Vines,& c. want the Instruction of our present Lords, to make them wise enough to Conform? |
A27046 | Did these Lads give the Earl of Essex his Commission? |
A27046 | Did these satisfie him to Conform herein? |
A27046 | Did they never read or hear what might be said for the New- Conformity? |
A27046 | Did this prove me to be neither fish nor flesh? |
A27046 | Did you ever know any put to death or burnt at a Stake for your Opinion? |
A27046 | Did you not know till now, that the Nonconformists are not in all things of one mind? |
A27046 | Did you think we must take your bare word in so great a case? |
A27046 | Do I mai many Sentence? |
A27046 | Do I pervert any? |
A27046 | Do all or half the Non- conformists profess themselves Presbyterians? |
A27046 | Do any Independents say that none are Christians but their special charge; yea, or stated Members of particular Churches? |
A27046 | Do not Heathens abhor such Injustice as this? |
A27046 | Do not men pay dearer for a place in a Play- house, than in the Church? |
A27046 | Do not the Popish, Protestant, Episcopal, and Presbyterian, differ in the Form of Government? |
A27046 | Do not those of the same Form differ as Individuals by their several Rulers? |
A27046 | Do not you in Print proclaim men to be flesh or fish, hot or cold, that are not so? |
A27046 | Do they think it enough to warrant their slanders of us, because one of their Archbishops hath slandered us before them? |
A27046 | Do we forbid them that are not willing, or do they forbid themselves? |
A27046 | Do we shut them out that will not come in? |
A27046 | Do you intimate an Accusation against Many of them; and when I name almost all of that County neer you, will you absolve them all? |
A27046 | Do you know that the Parliaments Adherents drew up a Catechism out of that Answer, as pretending to justifie all their Cause by it? |
A27046 | Do you know what Discipline they were of at Prague? |
A27046 | Do you mean in you or in me, or all others? |
A27046 | Do you not Assent to that neither? |
A27046 | Do you not tremble your self, when you question whether they be not gone to a worse place and revile us for the hopes of their Salvation? |
A27046 | Do you resolve to cast away all Religion, if Christ and a Bishop be not the same informing regent parts of the Church Universal and particular? |
A27046 | Do you say one word to prove your affirmation? |
A27046 | Do you think that the Christian world, which hath ever been of the opinion which you detest, had never any Religion? |
A27046 | Doth every one that after consenteth do more? |
A27046 | Doth he not know that it is practised by them all? |
A27046 | Doth he take such Arguments for unanswerable? |
A27046 | Doth he that dishonoureth the University, deserve honour for being at the University? |
A27046 | Doth it not imply, that you will take an Oath your self, if you judge but one part of it lawful? |
A27046 | Doth it oblige only the first time? |
A27046 | Doth not the extreme bold confidence of the falsest of his own conceptions, shew a very unhumbled overvaluing of his own understanding? |
A27046 | Doth not this savour of Factious malignity? |
A27046 | Doth the Act go to the Essence of the Object? |
A27046 | Doth the Physician forbid them to be his Patients that consent not? |
A27046 | Doth this suppose them ungodly before? |
A27046 | Durst you swear that none of the Lords, or Commons, or Citizens meddled with the War, but those that entred into the Army? |
A27046 | Either they were at Manhood, or in breeches at least, or not: If not, he should have chosen other Counsellers: If yea, were they Laymen or Clergymen? |
A27046 | Enquire who drave away the People of Kederminster? |
A27046 | Farwel the credit of all History, if there be no truer Historians:( But how shall Posterity know who they are?) |
A27046 | For who can hold that which will away? |
A27046 | Had he forgot how much of his Book is to prove even Bishops and Presbyters as widely different? |
A27046 | Had he no pretence for it? |
A27046 | Had it not been better for your to have let your Logick alone, than to bewray that which you might have concealed? |
A27046 | Had the Martyrs been burnt, if men had been of this minde? |
A27046 | Had they not Learning or Wit enough to understand it? |
A27046 | Hath Christ a multitude of Bodies univocally so called? |
A27046 | Hath Christ many Universal Churches containing all Christians headed by Christ? |
A27046 | Have I so oft exprest it, and yet will you say so? |
A27046 | Have there not since more( of the Laity) turned from you, than have turned to you? |
A27046 | Have we so many Books written of Ecclesiastical Policie, and is there no such thing? |
A27046 | Have you read him all, and understand him no better? |
A27046 | Have you read the Kings Answer to the 19 Propositions? |
A27046 | He addes,[ What shall godly Strangers, Travellers,& c. do? |
A27046 | He saith,[ Why then do you blame turning Parish- Churches into Chappels, and making them but parts of a Diocesane, as a Troop of an Army?] |
A27046 | He that refuseth Consent to be a stated Member, is none such: But is he therefore no Christian? |
A27046 | He would 1. make it doubtful, Whether it was a Vow to God? |
A27046 | Hearken whether they talk not more for Bishops, than for any other Sect? |
A27046 | How came he to think that Election is nothing to the case, as if Consent were something more? |
A27046 | How could you wink so hard, as not to see that your false witness confuteth it self? |
A27046 | How did this bold man know my thoughts? |
A27046 | How false is it then, that[ this is distraction and rage?] |
A27046 | How far doth your hearing reach? |
A27046 | How far will that hold? |
A27046 | How few words of Truth, and soberness, and soundness, can you number among all these? |
A27046 | How little truth is in all this, and abundance such? |
A27046 | How long will you be of the Parish- Priests or the Diocesans Flock, or of a Physicians Hospital? |
A27046 | How many of that Party have you known in such places of Trust? |
A27046 | How shall the unlearned know when they are safe? |
A27046 | I hope he doth not think all is excluded that is not to be named? |
A27046 | I hope then a Bishop and a Presbyter are all one, that in your sorry sense agree in uno tertio? |
A27046 | I know it is not But Cassander dealt more Candidly than you do Is there any thing that could be imposed, that would make you a Non- conformist? |
A27046 | I know there are many excellent men: But I think the present Non- conformists as fit for the Sacred Office as these;( Is that presumption?) |
A27046 | I left them out, because the Book could not be Licensed else: And should I not rather leave out a few Names, than cast away the whole Book? |
A27046 | I mean, not as if All were such; but it hath been my hard hap to meet with few persons, even of Gentile Education, who ask me, Why do you not Conform? |
A27046 | I never till now read or heard Papist, Protestant, or any Christian of his mind: And, alas, are divers of it now? |
A27046 | I own that which you transcribe? |
A27046 | I say, can I expect that such should be able or willing to understand us? |
A27046 | I suppose you know, when the Test in the Corporation- Act was imposed, that Party were then turned out of all Corporation- power? |
A27046 | I will not examine your Reasons: The King never made me his Confessor, nor put the question to me; Why then should I make my self a Judge of it? |
A27046 | If Christ and a Bishop in esse relationis politicae differ essentially, must good and bad, Heaven and Hell be all one? |
A27046 | If I give him no more than he is willing of, what do I put him out from? |
A27046 | If I have disputed the Case by Reasons, Why did he not cite them, and tell where? |
A27046 | If a Captain have commission to raise a Troop, is consent of the Listed needless? |
A27046 | If by[ All] or[ None] I understand All or None, and you understand not All but Some, who is the Strainer of the Oath? |
A27046 | If de re, do you mean any more than that he is authorized to gather and rule a Flock? |
A27046 | If it be, dare you oppose it? |
A27046 | If more, what is it? |
A27046 | If not, how shall we know which words are useless? |
A27046 | If not, is not one of them contrary to the Text? |
A27046 | If not, tell us how we shall know what are parts of it, and to what we must consent? |
A27046 | If our Preaching did no good to Souls, why should you think that yours does any? |
A27046 | If so many in Queen Maries days were burnt for denying the Real Presence,& c. Shall I not fear Perjury? |
A27046 | If so, is not[ conteined] an idle word when all men know that all that is prescribed is conteined? |
A27046 | If so, you are men of no true Religion: If not, why expect you it from us? |
A27046 | If the Materia Jurata be Lawfull, do you think that the unlawfulness of the other two, do leave no need of an Absolution? |
A27046 | If there be any such, what''s that to me? |
A27046 | If you can think so, why must all be silenced that think otherwise, and dare not be so bold? |
A27046 | If you mean that indeed they do not, why would you not say so, and deal plainly? |
A27046 | If you preach the same Gospel, why should you think so well of your own works above other mens? |
A27046 | If you require me to write out all his Book, when ever I transcribe a part? |
A27046 | In some places not two of the old staid in: And is it any wonder then, if none of that Party be in such Power? |
A27046 | Is Christ''s Discipline against our highest Priviledges? |
A27046 | Is Mr. Allen''s Book for Covenanting, and Mr. Rawlet''s of Sacramental Covenanting, such unchristening Heresies? |
A27046 | Is a Positive and a Comparative Assertion all one?] |
A27046 | Is a man and womans Consent needless, unless the Ministers marrying them be needless? |
A27046 | Is he a compleat Pastor of a Flock that hath none? |
A27046 | Is he not a Calumniator, unless he prove it? |
A27046 | Is it Schism to say, That it is unlawful like Atheists to cease all Publick Worship of God, till Conscience can finde it lawful to Conform? |
A27046 | Is it all the Christian world? |
A27046 | Is it damnable or sinful to covenant to be a godly Servant, or a godly Husband or Wife, or a godly Minister or Magistrate? |
A27046 | Is it so frightful a thing for me to say, I will be no Pastor to any that consent not, as to put you into talk of dying and burning at a Stake? |
A27046 | Is no modesty or tender fear of sinning against the Ninth Commandment left? |
A27046 | Is not Animal rationale a just definition of a man, without naming his Liver and Spleen, or Heart? |
A27046 | Is not Conformity now another thing? |
A27046 | Is not Consent then necessary to the imposed Pastor, if not consenting Unchristen men? |
A27046 | Is not a whole hand or foot part of a whole man? |
A27046 | Is not one Joshua Placaeus pro deitate Christi, worth all that ever was then wrote? |
A27046 | Is not the Genus& differentia enough for a definition? |
A27046 | Is not the mateial Universe made up of compounded parts? |
A27046 | Is not your Superiour''s judgment imposed on you to Assent to? |
A27046 | Is such Conformity tolerable, and our Preaching intolerable without it? |
A27046 | Is that an unequal expectation? |
A27046 | Is that the art of defining? |
A27046 | Is the rest contradictory to this? |
A27046 | Is there any part of the Universe if this be true? |
A27046 | Is there no such thing as Personal Communion in presence, because there is such a thing as distant Communion of another sort? |
A27046 | Is this fairly done, to pretend that to be the Controversie which I never undertook to meddle with? |
A27046 | Is this it in which the Authority of Archbishops consisteth, that they must be followed in slanders? |
A27046 | Is this lawful? |
A27046 | Is this made by a Minister a heinous sin? |
A27046 | Is this the equality of your way? |
A27046 | Is this the usual sence of[ All things,& c.] If not, where have the Law givers given us another? |
A27046 | It is a fallacy, A dicte secundum quid ad dictum simpliciter: I only askt you, What Farthing doth it take from their Estates? |
A27046 | It is a wonder to me that an Englishman should be in doubt who they be that drive men from the Parish Churches? |
A27046 | It is not one or two such men as are the Guides of Souls in England: But what? |
A27046 | Judge by old experience: Were old Hildersham, Ames, Dod, and hundreds like them, brought to Conformity heretofore? |
A27046 | Judge by present Experience: Why is it not done, if it be morally possible? |
A27046 | Let those sober men pass by; Do such Houses want custome? |
A27046 | May not a Town, Hospital, or Person, chuse a Physician as theirs if he were licensed be- before? |
A27046 | May you not distinguish Army, and Regiment, and Troop, Kingdom and City, Christ and a Bishop? |
A27046 | Most Christians live not according to the Christian Profession: Is the Christian Profession therefore bad, and the cause of all their Villanies? |
A27046 | Must it be all, or the major part, or will any one serve? |
A27046 | Must not Popery be renounced till you are all herein agreed? |
A27046 | Must we all turn Papists upon your immodest naked saying, it is so? |
A27046 | Must we judge all lawful, because our Guides do so? |
A27046 | Must we write Books against such things as these? |
A27046 | Must we write Histories out of mens secret thoughts and hearts, and call men only what they are conscientiously and in sincerity? |
A27046 | Nay what if he can not baptize a Non- consenter, or give him the Lords Supper, is the Refuser a Church- governour? |
A27046 | Next he aggravates this Injury: And who contradicteth him? |
A27046 | Next he asks, How can any man know the right Church then? |
A27046 | Next, he questioneth,[ Who shall degrade them that prove Heretical or Scandalous? |
A27046 | Next, he quibbles onely with a Question[ How long shall it last?] |
A27046 | Nor are we agreed of all forbidden in Gods Laws; Must we therefore forbear no sin? |
A27046 | Nor hath now any? |
A27046 | Nor no different species of the civil honour, what not to Kings, Parents, Masters? |
A27046 | Nor the Bishops to silence Ministers that refuse such Conformity? |
A27046 | Of the Wars I spake before: What other doth he name? |
A27046 | Oportuit fuisse memorem? |
A27046 | Or can I know who are capable till I know who consenteth? |
A27046 | Or did we spring out of their Loins, and must be silenced for such Original sin, derived from them that were no kin to us? |
A27046 | Or had they no Conscience living or dying? |
A27046 | Or what if I vowed without the Command of any power? |
A27046 | Or, whether the King of France be absolute? |
A27046 | Our Question is, Whether Silencing, Fining, Imprisoning the Non- Conformists, be the way of Peace, and of the desired Concord of Protestants? |
A27046 | Say you so; our Question is, Whether different Degrees in the subject may vary the species of Relations? |
A27046 | Seaman,& c. did not consider what they did, neither in their Health, nor before their Death? |
A27046 | Semper idem? |
A27046 | Should I abuse the Reader by a particular Answer to them? |
A27046 | Should we not have known them? |
A27046 | So I perceive you would have me Conform that I may Preach: And what should I Preach against but Sin? |
A27046 | So the Rubrick and the 39 Articless were the judgment of your Superiours: But are not they, and that Preface, parts of the Book? |
A27046 | Still all alike; What? |
A27046 | Suppose, so the Covenant hath some good? |
A27046 | That you seem to me to come near to Blasphemy, to intimate that Christ ordained so vain a Discipline: What? |
A27046 | The Canon forbiddeth the Minister to refuse any as aforesaid; What''s this then to the rest? |
A27046 | The Liturgie bids men come tell the Ministers before- hand that they desire the Communion: Shall I ask them to consent to their duty when it is past? |
A27046 | The Question is but whether it be our Church- men or theirs that are to be believed? |
A27046 | The Question is not, What were the final Motives of the War? |
A27046 | Then what remedy? |
A27046 | These things being premised, I ask you, Are you in good sadness? |
A27046 | They never pretended to it: How many men are so, whose Faith is their own? |
A27046 | Till then, is it the Pastors that refuse such till they voluntary seek it, or the Contemners of these Priviledges, that are to be reproved? |
A27046 | Was it not long after, at the Treaty of Uxbridge that you mean? |
A27046 | Was it well done to write such a Book, while he understood so very little of the very plainest passages which he wrote against? |
A27046 | Was not the Proposals at Nottingham sent by the Earl of Essex, a little before the raising of the Army? |
A27046 | Were not these the Levellers and Democratists Principles, higher than the old Parliament owned? |
A27046 | Were we and our present Controversie,( for the most of us) in being, and at age when the Lord Digby spake that? |
A27046 | What Bishoprick was it that he sought and missed of, and when? |
A27046 | What Book- sellers break faster than those that confine their Trade to rare Pieces of Antiquity, Learning, Reason, and serious Piety? |
A27046 | What Cheater then will not foist in some bad thing into his Vows, that he may be disobliged from all the rest? |
A27046 | What Church must he covenant with that was first baptized? |
A27046 | What Credit then is to be given to such mens History or Reports? |
A27046 | What Hereticks should we be? |
A27046 | What Shops have more trading, or seldomer break, than Toy- shops, that sell Babies, and Puppets, and Hobby- horses, and Pipes? |
A27046 | What a saying and unsaying is this? |
A27046 | What a thing is factions Interest? |
A27046 | What a trick has he found to exempt us all from Government? |
A27046 | What are the Parts of the Book to which we are to declare our Assent and Consent? |
