A36258For if they had been revealed formerly what need had there been of a new discovery?
A36258If 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?
A36258Is it therefore for the conviction of Infidels?
A36258My meaning is not, that these natural qualifications alone are sufficient for discharging the Clerical Calling?
A36258Or, 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?
A36258Otherwise how can you i silence Blasphemers with confusion and shame whilest they may have any just occasion of carping at you?
A36258and if it be, then Secondly, whether that Theological Controversie it self be of any moment?
A36258for satisfying Christians of the Divine prescience upon the accomplishment of his predictions?
A36258what violence they used in their stile, and therefore what regular abatements were to be allowed?
A36258whether it be more necessary, or onely more convenient?
A36258whether, if more necessary ▪ it be also more secure, especial ● y in regard of your greater interest ●?
A36258whether, if some be wanting, they be either fewer, or less considerable than those you have?
A36258whether, if they fit you onely, or peculiarly for this, yet, you may not have other qualifications that may make it dangerous?
A36258whether, if you have none, yet, you have not onely some, but all, the qualifications for this Calling?
A36258whether, 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?
A09911ALl worldly beautie, alas, is nothing else but vanitie; what more goodly then that of the Lillie of the field?
A09911And 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?
A09911But 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?
A09911For in death no man will remember thee, and who will giue thee thanks in the pit?
A09911For what teares will serue to wash out my Leopard spots, or cleanse my Ethiopian hew?
A09911HOw commeth it to passe, O Lord, that thou art so mindefull of man, man beeing so forgetfull of thee?
A09911Hath my best seruice vnto thee been betthen theirs, who kneeling,& saluting thee, haile king of the Iewes, yet crucified thee?
A09911Into 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?
A09911My soule is also sore troubled, but Lord how long wilt thou punish?
A09911Oh how light a load are the greatest mountaines in comparison of thy least heauie displeasure?
A09911Oh tell mee how with the Prodigall shall I returne to my Father?
A09911Oh then why should I be wearie of my groanings?
A09911Or can Dauid become more mercifull, then his God?
A09911Or was his Flocke dearer to him, thē thine is to thee?
A09911Or what is it; is my sinne greater then it can be forgiuen, that so my wickednesse should exceed thy goodnesse?
A09911What then may be the cause of this my Fabian- like cunctation and long pausing?
A09911ego noui tuam superbiim& nequitiam cordis tui, since I can not reply as Dauid did, Quid feci?
A09911nunquid non verbum est?
A09911or if I doe returne, say, hast thou any more kisses, and embraces lest, for such a riotous Sonne?
A09911or shall I entertaine my Soueraigne Lord with such houshold seruāts?

A939261. Who shall secure the Tithingman for what he doth upon the Justices unjust proceedings?
A93926Answer, 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?
A93926Art thou he that livest in the Spirit?
A93926Art thou more wise, more holy, more knowing then the Bishops, and the Episcopal Preachers?
A93926Art thou not raised up of the devil to bring an evil report upon the work of Reformation?
A93926As 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?
A93926But why do you boast your self in your own deceivings?
A93926Do not the Episcopalians hate thy waies in wickednesse?
A93926Is not M. White and the Parish beholding to T. W?
A93926Is not the light that is in thee darknesse?
A93926Judge Nicholas saith, O sirra, you know the Law, do you?
A93926Lord how good thou art?
A93926The second was, Whether ever they took M. W. to be a good woman?
A93926Then the Presbyterian and Independent Ministers, or rather, art thou not altogether notwithstanding like a deceitfull Idol?
A93926Thou art guilded with godlinesse I say: Art thou not altogether in the flesh?
A93926Two questions Mr Stokes desires them to satisfie him in; one is Why the fact was concealed till now?
A93926Webb is satisfied with his Masse of malice ▪ and that one of many acts of blasphemy is enough to record at this time?
A93926Were not these mock- prayers?
A93926What provision is made for conveying him and his& c. to Goal, for a foot they can not go, and horses they will not hire?
A93926When you appeared in sheeps clothing, who harmed you, who molested you, who advanced themselves above you?
A93926Wherefore Mr Stokes demands of them why they trouble him about such complaints?
A93926Whereupon this Deponents husband asked the said Mr Webbe, What?
A93926Whether 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?
A93926Whether the said Webbe be not a man of a thousand to make a Parish Parson, and publique Preacher in this time of Reformation?
A93926Whether( seeing they were States- prisoners) the State ought not to make provision for them, both to the Goal and in the Goal?
A93926do you tell them lies in the Pulpit?
A93926from his lawfull calling?
A93926from his pretended purity, to lay the egs of his filthinesse in other birds nests?
A93926from the wife of his bosome?
A93926that art raised up against a time of Reformation, to help forward the work?
A93926that hast attained to a higher light?
A93926why at that time of the night?
A93926why they did not rather get the assistance of some of their friends to reconcile them?
A28368Alas, what is wisdom without a mouth?
A28368Are you not more carefull to enquire whether your Curats be conformable to the Ceremonies of the Church, than whether they bee diligent in preaching?
A28368But now these two dishonours what be they?
A28368Canst thou make him afraid as the Grashopper?
A28368Doth not the Apostle by these words, who is sufficient for these things?
A28368Ergo why should you live of the Gospell?
A28368Fourthly the love of Christ were it present, would constraine Ministers to feede his sheepe: Peter saith Christ, lovest thou mee?
A28368Hath God given you gifts fit to teach?
A28368Hee is of a shamelesse forehead that will denie your desire to Magistrates, how did they struggle for the sword of Justice at Salisbury?
A28368How much more a Minister?
A28368I would know whether this precept requireth the personall presence of the Pastor or no?
A28368Is it not for not shewing themselves workemen, rightly dividing the Word of truth?
A28368Search the Scriptures, for in them ye think to have eternall life, but they are they which testifie against you: Why are ye called* Watchmen?
A28368Secondly, and whether God will not call you to a fearefull account one day for the breach of these honest promises?
A28368THus 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?
A28368To what end else is this vaine ostentation, of Wit, Eloquence, Reading, and all variety of learning?
A28368VVHether they can say with the Apostl ●, I seeke not yours but you?
A28368What is the cause of late, the calling of Ministers hath fallen into such contempt?
A28368What is the cause so few subject themselves to Christs Scepter?
A28368What?
A28368When Christ in John 21 asked Peter thrice, Simon, lowest ● ho ● me?
A28368Wherefore serve they?
A28368Whether they use to make mention of those that are under their charge in their prayers, praying for their establishment and profection in grace?
A28368Whom shall I send?
A28368Why, are they Ministers then?
A28368Wisdome that is hid, and a treasure that is not seen what profit is in them both?
A28368but that you should be painefull:* Shepheards?
A28368but that you should be vigilant:* Harvest labourers?
A28368but that you should have a care of your flocks:* Stewards?
A28368for God''s sake let the labourers have their due wages, shall not the Parliament doe well to compell you thereunto?
A28368no leisure to be Ministers?
A28368or who shall go for us?
A28368to Pride, fulnesse of bread, abundance of idlenesse, and doe they strengthen the hands of the poore and needy?
A26980And are all these sects that oppose us, better agreed among themselves?
A26980And can you not hear the Devil in these words of highest Pride and Arrogancy?
A26980And 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?
A26980And do you reproach us with our mercies, if we be out of the Furnace but a little while, in one corner of the world?
A26980And how prove you that we have not the Spirit?
A26980And if we be not persecuted, What means the reproaches of you and all the Drunkards and Malignants about us?
A26980And is there enow that are wiser and better then we to fill up our rooms, if we were out?
A26980And what do they endure all this for but Gods honour and your salvation?
A26980And what else do Quakers and all these sectst that are the enemies of the Ministry?
A26980And what have they got by it?
A26980And why so?
A26980And will you throw stones at their head for endeavouring to save your souls?
A26980And would not you do the like by them if you had power in your hands?
A26980And would these men make all the people thieves and covetous, to take or desire that which never was their own?
A26980But if they had their will, and were rid of the Ministry, alas what would the forlorn wretches do?
A26980But really Sirs, do you think that these men would teach you better?
A26980Can 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?
A26980Do I need to prove this, which is so much of the substance of the old Testament and the New?
A26980Do not Lawyers, Physitians,& c. live a far easier, and in the world a more honourable plentiful life?
A26980Do not all preach one Gospel, and the same Essentials of the Christian Faith?
A26980Do not you feel these flie in your faces when you oppose the Ministers of Christ?
A26980Do you not understand the meaning of these words against Christs Ministers?
A26980Do you think so many souls would be converted if the Ministry were down?
A26980Doth a thief or murderer sin against plainer light then you?
A26980Doth not Paul pray that the Gospel may run and be glorified, and that we may be delivered from unreasonable wicked men?
A26980For whom do we watch, but for them and others?
A26980Have you already forgotten how the persecutots of a godly Ministry have sped within these sixteen years in England and Ireland?
A26980Have 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?
A26980How many millions of souls would these wretches sweep away to hell, if they had their will?
A26980If he do not know, will you blame him for using the best that he can get?
A26980If none, you may see what they are doing: if any, Who and where are they?
A26980Is it any thing but what they had before?
A26980Is it not horrible Pride if all these silly souls do think that they can do it better themselves?
A26980Is it not malice or sacrilegious covetousness that frameth this accusation?
A26980Is not this the loud language of their actions?
A26980Is that their wages that you owe them?
A26980Nay would they have them rob God, to whom for his service the Tithes were devoted?
A26980Or to ruine his Kingdom, then to reject his Officers?
A26980The Elders that Rule well are wor ● hy of double honour,& c.] with abundance more such passages as these?
A26980Then they might damn themselves without disturbance, and go quietly to hell, and no body stop them, and say,[ Why do you so?]
A26980This is soon said too: but where''s the proof?
A26980Was it the friends or enemies of all the Prophets, Apostles and Ministers of Christ, that Scripture and all good writers do commend?
A26980What I must Gods Ministers above all others be grudged food and raiment, and that of the Lords portion, which none of you pay for?
A26980What difference between the calling, doctrine and lives of those martyred Ministers, and these that are now alive?
A26980What greater service could all the world do for the Devil then to cast out the Ministers of Christ?
A26980What if the Ministers were all cast out?
A26980What readier way to ruine the Schools of Christ, then by casting out the Teachers that he hath appointed under him?
A26980What work would heresies, and division, and prophanness make, if these banks were cut down?
A26980What would you have more then is granted you?
A26980Who doth not desire that all the Lords people were Prophets?
A26980Who fights against Christs Officers and Army, but the General of the contrary Army?
A26980Who should teach the ignorant, or rebuke the obstinate, explain the word of truth, and stop the mouthes of proud gain- sayers?
A26980Whose are the Tithes?
A26980Will you spit in their faces for seeking with all their might to keep you from Hell?
A26980Would not the time, and labour, and cost that they are at in the Schools and Universities have fitted them for a more gainful trade?
A26980Would we be Ministers for any lower ends?
A26980[ Shall evil be recompenced for Good?
A26980and oppose the same sort of Ministers that the Papists burned?
A26980and what more would the Devil himself desire, to set up his Kingdom and suppress the Church?
A26980are they ours or theirs?
A26980or ever endeavoured?
A26980where was there ever Church on earth that continued without a Minister?
A26980would they have any to do Gods work in their stead, or none?
A39199And first what think you of the great pains some have taken in perswading people to look to their election?
A39199And what do you think the reason is?
A39199Are they not branded with the odious name of Phanaticks?
A39199For what great violence was offer''d to the adored Mammon by tything a sprig of Mint, or a Pint of Cummin- seed?
A39199For who is he whose Conscience hath been always so callous, as not sometimes to awake him, and put him upon sorrow and holy resolves?
A39199For why should any man think that his exhortation should prevail more with me, than himself?
A39199How could they mistrust the Religion of such zealous devoters?
A39199How often have you seen a Preacher heat himself, beyond the need of any vestments?
A39199I pray, Sir, tell me, is not here an excellent Evangelist?
A39199If this be true, what can the most sensual Sinner desire more?
A39199Now what good Christian will gainsay this?
A39199Now, Sir, How mightily( do you think) must this Courtship endear them to their people?
A39199Or what inference( I pray) can be drawn from it, but this?
A39199Prosperum scelus vocatur virtus?
A39199Sometimes speaking in a tolerable tone, and presently again crying out as if under some immediate distraction?
A39199Suborned to patronize and defend this loose Doctrine?
A39199Tell 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?
A39199Tell me, Sir, which of these the people were most likely to slave at and admire?
A39199That a man may safely follow Providence contrary to some known Precepts?
A39199Were it not much better to be serious in preventing this direful Exit, now in time?
A39199Were it not much safer to cease quarrelling and disputing against things( acknowledged by themselves) indifferent?
A39199What Censures then can be too severe for these men, when prophane and profligate?
A39199What benefit gain I by hearing a loud Harangue about the excellency of Faith?
A39199What course could be less contrary or afflicting to a scornful Pride, than to take care never to eat with Publicans and Sinners?
A39199What great austerity in fasting twice a week, so that a Feast might be allowed to their lusts all the days beside?
A39199What great difficulty in a long Prayer, while that would presently be recompensed with the Widows House?
A39199What great hardship in washing before meat, while the Soul was freely left to it''s uncleanness?
A39199What great unpleasantness in always washing when they had been in the Market, all the while they brought thence such good pennyworths?
A39199What have you thought of these men, when you have beheld the strange antick gestures, the ludicrous postures of some addressing themselves to Prayer?
A39199What mad men were we( I have heard some say) to undergo these things, but that our Consciences oblige us thereto?
A39199What think you of the accounts we have from these men of the business of justification, by a bare empty Faith?
A39199What wild and horrible inferences have we known made from these words?
A39199What''s that Sheep profited by Cloathing others, while it self goeth naked?
A39199Who but a madman would seek to build a fortune unto others upon the ruins of his own House?
A39199Who regards a drunken mans Exhortation to Temperance?
A39199Who seeth not how often, and how shamefully they have been non- plust and bafled?
A39199Who that''s wise seeth not in this the desperateness of a sinking cause, and an acknowledged inabillity of ever fairly maintaining it?
A39199Who, by vertue of this Doctrine, may not warrantably undertake any thing, that he hath any tollerable hopes of being able to perform?
A39199Would ever any but a Madman, or worse, have given encouragement to people to come full of sin and wickedness unto Christ?
A39199You may see this in two Speeches of our Saviour himself, have not I chosen you twelve, yet one is a Devil?
A39199a 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?
A39199and endeavour by all means to secure that in the first place?
A39199and is it not as good allmost to take away their lives, as their reputation?
A39199and of the great motive added to enforce this perswasion?
A39199and proclaimed his readiness of accepting all that can but cry Meih, though never such great Whores or swell''d with wickedness?
A39199and that God many times calls his people, by some signal acts of his Providence to follow him in untrodden ways, nay prohibited paths?
A39199and the glistering and amazing service and worship of Baal, before the less pompous service of the God of Israel?
A39199by every man laying aside these poor low mean designs, and quitting that peevishness, and that Pride that necessarily engage men upon them?
A39199have they not, many of them, parted with good Livings to preserve their Consciences pure and untainted?
A39199how could they chuse almost but admire the zeal and fervour of such worshippers?
A39199little 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?
A39199of Schismaticks?
A39199or believe that himself thinks that necessary, with which he makes bold so constantly to dispense?
A39199or hope to perswade me to practise that ▪ of which I see him wholly regardless?
A39199or quarrel with the good man for asserting of it?
A39199or what comfort finds that filly Worm in its death, who hath extracted its bowels to make others fine and gay?
A39199prefer these Idolatrous Priests, before the Lords Prophet?
A39199that if a person can have but the courage, to venture boldly upon a promise without more ado, he shall be accepted by Christ Jesus?
A39199the Ark is gone, and do not they suffer in its Captivity?
A39199the happiness of being interested in Christ?
A39199the making vents, and Schisms, and parties in the Church, which must be acknowledg''d extreamly dangerous?
A39199the strange amazing violencies that some have forced themselves into, in that performance?
A39199what 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?
A39199where''s the Sinner to be found, whose Paroxisms have been so constant, as never to afford him any lucid intervals?
A39199while I neither am told the true nature of the one, nor directed to the right and proper means of obtaining the other?
A39199who is he that will breathe after an active Faith, such an one as is to work by Love?
A3749813. of the Whole Church, that by one Spirit we are all baptized into one Body, and are all made to drink into one Spirit?
A37498Again, are Believers, as he affirms, at an infinite distance from Christ?
A37498And can not we be Enemies to this, say You, without hating the Blessed Word of God?
A37498And do they not receive it alike immediately from God?
A37498And how contrary is this Doctrine to Mr. Simpsons?
A37498And if the Ceremonies of the Law were in use under the Gospel, how ought we to rendour Garments at the Hearing of these Things?
A37498And 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?
A37498And so during all the Reign of Antichrist in the World, whom hath he prevailed withall, and deceived, but only the World?
A37498And was this Promise only made to Them, and not to all the Faithfull also, who should believe in Christ through their Word?
A37498And what Humane Learning had Steven?
A37498And what now are the University- Degrees in Divinity to these?
A37498Are Grammar, Rhetorick, Logick, Ethicks, Physicks, Metaphysicks, Mathematicks, the Weapons whereby we must defend the Gospel?
A37498Art Thou come to destroy Us?
A37498Behold the Lord will help me; who is he that shall condemn me?
A37498But did Moses ever teach any of that Learning in the Church, or publish any of the Doctrines of it?
A37498But what do they perform at length?
A37498But what strange Phrase is this?
A37498Did I make a Gain of you, by any of them whom I sent unto you?
A37498Do not the Saints partake of the Divine Nature?
A37498Doth this man truly believe in the Son of the Living God, who makes Him such an helpless Idol?
A37498For is our Union with Christ, the Foundation of Error?
A37498For what Humane Learning had Peter and John?
A37498For which of the Philosophers instructed the Apostles?
A37498He is near that justifies me; who will contend with me?
A37498How can this Doctrine agree with these Scriptures?
A37498How shall they teach except they be sent?
A37498I Answer, what part of Philosophy is here made use of?
A37498If any say, I my self relate to the University, why then do I speak against it thus?
A37498If this were true, what sad news would it be to the Church of God?
A37498In what a sad condition then are the Common and Plain People, that they can not Pledge him?
A37498Is it not a madness then to say that we could not understand the Scripture without Aristotle?
A37498Let Us alone, what have We to do with Thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth?
A37498Must that Word be secured by Aristotle, which delivers all the Elect from Sin, Death, and Hell for ever?
A37498Now doth not all this declare a most woful Ignorance of, and Enmity to the Gospel of God our Saviour?
A37498Now if any shall say, But how shall we know whether a man hath Christ dwelling in his Heart or no?
A37498Or did he command, or encourage any of the People of God to learn it?
A37498Or how shall the Mysterie of Faith, and of our Union with Christ through Faith into One Flesh and Spirit with Him, be known?
A37498Or how shall the free Justification of a Sinner through the Death of Christ, and his Reconciliation to God, be known?
A37498Or the New Birth and New Creature, which hath all things New in it, and all those New things, the Things of God?
A37498Or what Help must they have to teach them Divinity, who have not opportunity to gain Humane Learning?
A37498Quae ergo Eleemosyna est, sic sovere puerulum talem Diaboli in Castris Cainiticis contra Christum?
A37498Quis est sapiens& intelliget haec?
A37498What Alms therefore is it, to cherish such a Childe of the Devil, in Cains Castles, against Christ?
A37498Where shall you meet with such Mockers and Scoffers at God, and his Gospel, as here?
A37498Who can give the Spirit of God to Man, but God Himself?
A37498Yea farther, where shall you see Youth again in all the Nation, so vain, proud, fantastical, bold, impudent?
A37498and so consequently, whether he be a true or false Prophet?
A37498and what is the Divine Nature, but the very Nature of God?
A37498dost thou Love me?
A37498dost thou Love me?
A37498let us stand together, who is mine adversary?
A37498or did Titus make a Gain of you?
A37498or have true Believers no real Union with Christ, but imaginary?
A37498or who of the Heathens are here quoted?
A37498seeing Nothing on Earth can reveal the least part of these things?
A37498walked we not Both in the same Spirit?
A37498with all the rest of the Things of the Gospel?
A094453 Are good Ministers so thinne sowne, are there so few of them?
A09445A Minister is to declare the reconciliation betwixt God and man, and is he himselfe not reconciled?
A09445Againe, might not the Prophet haue alledged that with a better pretence and colour then they?
A09445Also, I heard the voyce of the Lord, saying, whom shall I send, and who shall goe for vs?
A09445And if it be a shame and miserie?
A09445And in another place: The Angel of God appeared, whose I am, and whom I serue?
A09445And some want willingnesse to vndertake the labour, as God here complaineth; Who shall goe for vs?
A09445And they teach, a man may in this life perfectly fulfill the Lawe, but who can doe it, if not Ministers?
A09445And what Ministers, if not extraordinary Prophets?
A09445Are not these goodly liuings for learned men, and may not wee expect a learned Ministerie, where there is such maintenance?
A09445But alas, can not the Kings Messenger or Officer be honoured, vnlesse he be set vppon the Kings throne?
A09445But for the matter: are apparitions from heauen so ordinary in the popish Church?
A09445But let those men marke heere the phrase of this holy Prophet ▪ when God asked, Whom shall I sen ● e?
A09445But then it may bee demaunded, why the Lord saith so?
A09445But to goe further: whence came this Coale?
A09445But what kinde of seruants are they?
A09445But 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?
A09445By this inquirie, and question made by God, Whom shal I send, and who shall goe for vs?
A09445Can hee commend the state of Grace to another,& neuer felt the sweetnes thereof in his owne soule?
A09445Dare he present another man to Gods mercy for pardon, and neuer yet presented himselfe?
A09445Dare hee come to preach sanctification with polluted lyps, and out of an vnsanctified hart?
A09445Euen cry to the mountaines, fall vpon vs: and to the hils, couer vs, and hide vs: from what?
A09445For shall the Oxes mouth be mousled, which treads out the corne, or shall a man goe to warre at his owne cost?
A09445Hee 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?
A09445How foule a thing is it that amongst so many, the Lord should haue cause to complaine; Whom shall we send?
A09445If any aske, how he shall know when God calles him?
A09445If any man aske; But is it not as good if anoth ● ● man pronounce forgiuenesse vnto mee vpo ● my repentance?
A09445In the last place, let vs marke what God saith: Whom shal I send, and who shal go for vs?
A09445In 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?
A09445Is it not then an honor& happines vnto thee to bring thy sonne to this estate?
A09445The Lord knoweth who are his, and neede not to aske whom shall I send, or who shall goe?
A09445The second vse concernes the ministers also: are they Gods Angels?
A09445Thirdly, let vs obserue how the Lord saith: Who shal( I) send,& who shal go for( vs)?
A09445This should be the end of their preaching, to deliuer a soule from hell, and what should Commissioners doe, but execu ● e theyr Commission?
A09445When shall I send, and who shall goe for vs?
A09445Where is the cause?
A09445Whom shall I send?
A09445Why then should they so much condemne them, for such faults ▪ as wherein themselues haue made them faultie?
A09445Will you knowe the meaning heereof?
A09445and hath not God ordained( marke it is his Ordinance) that those who teach the Gospell, shal liue of the Gospel?
A09445and should not a man looke about him, afore he come there?
A09445and then changing the number, he saith: Who shal goe for vs?
A09445if wee heare the voice of God any more, wee shall dye: for what fleshe euer hard the voyce of the liuing God& liued?
A09445or to him, who when thy health is lost, can tell thee how to get it againe?
A09445or who shall be sent to such a Parish?
A09445so can not Angels be honoured, vnlesse they be made Gods, or Sauiours, or Mediators?
A09445surely, that burning fire shal consume thē?
A09445they 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?
A09445were they not all polluted?
A09445will nothing serue him, but the Crowne and Scepter?
A09445yes, 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?
A453287. Who goeth a Warfare at any time at his own Charges?
A453288. 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?
A45328All things are common amongst friends?
A45328And does not this sad condition call for A ● istry of Reconciliation?
A45328And if the wise God thought this way the best to maintain his Ministers, who shall reprove him?
A45328And 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?
A45328And so consequently what is the sust ● ntation, and nourishment of the body, to that of the soul?
A45328And what good commander is thers, but will encourage, vindicate, embolden, and reward his faithfull Souldiers in and for their faithfull service?
A45328Are these the fruits of so much patience and love?
A45328Are these the returns of so many incomes from above?
A45328As if he had said, can any one be delighted with meat that has not been seasoned with salt?
A45328Behold the salve?
A45328Behold the ● ore?
A45328Degenerate Ministers are hardly cured; for what remains with which they may be restored and seasoned?
A45328Do I fortifie my cause with humane reason and examples onely?
A45328Do not poor means make poor Ministers?
A45328Do we thus require the Lord, a people foolish and unwise?
A45328Do wretched and godlesse men deprive and defraud us of temporall rewards?
A45328Doth any one curse him?
A45328Egyptians?
A45328For how can a man be more glorious, then by being made the glory of Christ?
A45328For so says the test, when they heard this, they sayd, Men and Brethen, what shall we doe?
A45328For what end?
A45328For what man will forsake, the plowmen, the Shepheards, the Stewards, which himself sets a work?
A45328For, VVho goeth to warre at his own charges?
A45328For, who almost would be so bold, as to tax the vices, or reprove the corrupt manners of those, from whom they received dayly gratuities?
A45328Hath not the poverty of Clergy- men begotten ignorance, and ignorance brought forth contempt?
A45328He fell on this face, and said, Art thou that my Lord Elisah?
A45328He was unwearied in his doing, and invincible in his su ● fering: How many Cities and Countreys did he enlighten with the Go ● pel?
A45328How can they be popish, which were paid thousands of years before any such beast as a Pope did spring up?
A45328How shall be teach well that lives ill; or season others, who is himself altogether unsavoury?
A45328How shall he spare the haters and despisers both of his Ministers and Ministry?
A45328How shall they preach except they be sent?
A45328If stipends be given to the bad, why not much rather to the good?
A45328If the false Apostles and Seducers, who devour you, receive things necessary, then, why may not we who propagate the Gospel of Christ?
A45328Is not God allwayes like himself?
A45328Is there no God, but in the still voice of your spirituall conceivements and Revelations now adayes?
A45328Is there no light in the Word of God?
A45328Let there be found out a more sufficient and certain and honourable maintenance, and who will contend for Tythes?
A45328Loe here the usefullnesse and necessity of a Gospell- Ministry?
A45328Now what is either more profitable or more pleasant than light?
A45328Oh that some Hercules will oppose himself to this many headed Monster?
A45328Or any thing please a judicious palate that is unseasoned?
A45328Or who feedeth a flock and eateth not of the milk of the flock?
A45328Or, saith not the ● aw the same also?
A45328Shall Clodius condemn Adulterie; Or Catiline Cethegus, worse then hee?
A45328Shall not the like causes produce the like effect?
A45328The Proposition is indefinite, and that is as large as an universal one, should live, but how?
A45328They that fear the hatred, or reproaches of the world, will ● oon faint, and flagge?
A45328Thou that abhorrest Idols, committest thou Sacriledge?
A45328Thou that abhorrest false Gods, doest thou rob the true one, which is worse?
A45328Thus give unto them double honour, that is, honour them fully and freely?
A45328To what purpose are all these Names, and honourable Titles, if there be no such Order, as Ministers, in the Church?
A45328VVhat is the cha ● ● e to the wheat?

A45328Why stand ye gazing up into heaven for new discoveries?
A45328and 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?
A45328eternal things excell fading, flitting, perishing, transitory vani ● ies?
A45328how could the beauty of them be exprest more fully, than by such an elegant particle of admiration?
A45328or, whether are your eyes out that ye can not receive it?
A45328they may drag any soul to hell with themselves: What weeds of Heresie do they plant?
A45328what more heavy doome shall they undergoe, that scorn, contemn, reproach the Ministers of Christ?
A45328what seeds of discord do they sowe?
A45328what stones of stumbling do they lay?

A79888And how will this curtail the Ministers share?
A79888And they which wait at the Altar, are made partakers with the Altar?
A79888And whether they were not the first that to justifie the Popes Proceedings, pleaded that Tithes were Jewish?
A79888And who then shall take course to enforce such to pay?
A79888As they tend to preserve the publike worship of God, in the second and fourth Commandement?

A55393If extraordinary gifts might be desired,( as our Brethren say) why not an extraordinary Office?
A55393If 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?
A55393In this sense also Christ bids us pray the Lord, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest: How send them?
A55393Is it not in the Master also?
A55393It 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?
A55393Let me take the boldnesse to question whether the Gospel Ministers are an inferiour order to the high Priest or no?
A55393Nay indeed upon further search these will be found to be much coincident: How can they preach unless they be sent?
A55393Or if a man hath gifts to rule a State, must he take upon him that work, before he be called to it?
A55393Say that all must endeavour to be teachers, what then?
A55393Sent, by whom?
A55393Shall we therefore conclude they were not ordained?
A55393So Tully, Quis te damnatior?
A55393THE third and last question is this, Whether ordination may be done by the people?
A55393THey Question, What is meant by the Ministry?
A55393The Question is not, whether preaching or baptizing be greater in regard of the dignity of the work?
A55393The second branch is this?
A55393They 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?
A55393Thus Christ often said, that he was sent, in Answer to that Question of his enemies, By what authority doest thou these things?
A55393Very true, Deacons were sent and had mission: What advantage can our Brethren pick out thence?
A55393What 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?
A55393What if a man be prudent and very fit to manage the Deacons work, and to distribute the Church- alms?
A55393What if you meet with nothing that convinceth you, that this was an ordinary Presbytery?
A55393Whether Ministers are only Ministers to their particular Flocks?
A55393Whether the Office of the Ministry be a relation to the Work of the Ministry, or to the Church?
A55393Who knows not that the gift of Tongues, praediction, and infallible explication of the Scripture is ceased?
A55393Will our Brethren then say, that others not desiring a man to exercise his gifts, will justifie him in the not exercising of it?
A55393and Whether the title Minister, in its special and distinct acception may be applied to him?
A55393and 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?
A55393i. e. How can they do it lawfully?
A55393may he do it?
A55393must he undertake it( upon pretence of exercising his gifts) before he be called to it?
A55393must they needs be publick teachers?
A55393or a man gifted to rule?
A86287124. where he affirmes, that some did not forbear to cry, what needs this cost to decore a superstitious Relique?
A862878 Is not this like to prove a brave historian think you, who professeth openly that he writes one thing and intends another?
A86287Admit it to be so conceived and said by the Observator, how doth the Preacher goe about to prove the contrary?
A86287And now what new impulsive will he give us in exchange for the other?
A86287And why all this?
A86287And why all this?
A86287Antient, laudable, and tolerable, who can wish for more?
A86287Auditum admisse risum teneatis amici?
A86287But 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?
A86287But Sir, who told you that King James communicated with his Houses of parliament, in the Breach with Spain?
A86287But Sir, without any of your whim- whams, where find you any such thing, or any thing that looks that way in the Observator?
A86287But dares he stand to this?
A86287But good Sir do you speak in earnest?
A86287But how doth he weaken this assurance, and abate this confidence?
A86287But how is this dependency proved?
A86287But if it be not so, as indeed it is not, where lieth the malice or ridiculousnesse which the Pulpit rang of?
A86287But then admitting fourthly, that the Bishop parted with the Seal in August, yet what makes this to our Authors justification?
A86287But what if Mr. Howels intelligence fail him, who though a very honest man pretends not to the Spirit of infallibility, as our Author doth?
A86287But what makes this to the Arminian and Remonstrant partie?
A86287But what makes this unto the purpose?
A86287But will the Pamphleter stand to this, will he stand to any thing?
A86287Can any man hear this fine stuffe and abstain from laughter?
A86287Can 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?
A86287Doth the Pamphleter deny any part of this?
A86287For if he spake nothing all the while, how can the Pamphleter assure us, what his judgment was, or upon whom it did depend?
A86287For mark the Argument in Bishop Wrens Articles, framed for the Diocess of Norwich( Anno 1636. why was that left out?)
A86287For who but the King, that granted the Commission, should declare the impulsive causes to it?
A86287Have I betray''d the State To Fire, or Fury, or some newer Fate?
A86287Have I renounc''d my faith?
A86287Have I some former practice undertook By Poyson, Shot, sharp Knife, or sharper look To kill my King?
A86287How doth he make this good in the Bishop of VVinchester?
A86287How it is possible to escape the Observators lash?
A86287How so?
A86287How so?
A86287How so?
A86287How so?
A86287How so?
A86287If so they seemed in his own sense, why doth he not declare how, and by whom his sense was altered in that point?
A86287Let us indulge him this also for his former kindness, yet what makes this unto the purpose?
A86287Mr. Pym ▪ should be conjured from the Royal Sepulchres like Samuel by the Witch of E ● dor, to bear witness to it?
A86287None like him?
A86287Not undertaking to warrant the circumstance but the thing?
A86287Presbyters then are subject unto censure; but to whose censure are they subject?
A86287Quid interest utrum velim fieri, an gaudeam factum?
A86287This is good Fish indeed if it were well fryed, but who shall have the cooking of it?
A86287This is the information, but what Proofs have they of it?
A86287Thus do I hear our Author say, but I find the contrary, and then, quid verba audiam cum facta videam?
A86287Well, what saith he?
A86287What all Expositors, all without exception?
A86287What meaneth else, this bleating of the Sheep in mine ears, and the lowing of the Oxe which I hear?
A86287What saith the Pamphleter to this?
A86287What saith the Pamphleter to this?
A86287What saith the Pamphleter to this?
A86287What saith the Pamphleter to this?
A86287What shall an honest Historian do in such a case?
A86287What should a poore man doe to get a good word from him, if this will not do it?
A86287What think you my most precious Author, where is the creeping aud cringing, the crawling and crouching which your Pamphlet speaks of?
A86287What think you now on the whole matter, my most precious Pamphleter?
A86287What 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?
A86287What, all or altogether against King Charles?
A86287Where finds he in the Observator, that the Lord Primate advised the King to sign the Bill for the Earl of Straffords death?
A86287Why so?
A86287Why so?
A86287With pride and insolence enough, parturiant montes& c. you have shewed us the mountain gentle Sir, but pray you Sir where is the mouse?
A86287dar ● s he stand to any thing?
A86287finds he nothing faulty in the Story of the Observator?
A86287is not this an inveighing against King James, and a detracting from his King- craft?
A86287makes it not to his further condemnation rather?
A86287or basely sold Salvation, or my Loyalty for Gold?
A86287or wh ● r ● else should they be declared but in that Commission?
A86287where that servility of carriage which made his Lordship merry at the sight thereof?
A54793And he was truly angry, you say?
A54793And therefore he makes this Confession; to what end?
A54793And what then?
A54793As how?
A54793As how?
A54793As how?
A54793As how?
A54793Begat, and Begat?
A54793But how does this justifie the Ruining of Zedechia?
A54793But how will you help it?
A54793But what need of all this?
A54793Could an Angel have said more?
A54793Could ye blame her for Plotting( though she absolutely deny''d it) against a Person that kept her from the Enjoyment of her Kingdom?
A54793Did not Jehu and Jehoiadah cause Jezebel and Athaliah to be put to death?
A54793Do they walk in the Clouds?
A54793Do you believe this to be a Hyperbole, or no?
A54793Do you know Sir, what the Lady is, or what her Vertues are?
A54793Does he?
A54793Does not the Observator and Heraclitus tell yee so?
A54793Govern your Passion, Sir, d''ye understand Heraldry?
A54793Ha''ye done now?
A54793Had he so?
A54793Harp no more upon that string?
A54793Has your Observator been all this while observing, and observed none of''em yet?
A54793How Friend Priestlove?
A54793How could this be?
A54793How 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?
A54793How strangely the Case is alter''d?
A54793I must confess, I would not have a man in an Assize Sermon tell the Judges a Story of the good Samaritan?
A54793I would fain know how far the League between Hannibal, and the King of Macedon will affect them?
A54793In like- manner, what have they to do with Associatians and Addresses, as they are the Disputes of State?
A54793Interest, you know, Sir, has Govern''d the World, how long d''ye think?
A54793No?
A54793Not so hasty — For will you prefer a Brace of Quacks to a whole Colledge of able Physitians?
A54793Now for down- right Barbarisme, Lord, when wilt thou amend this gear?
A54793Now 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?
A54793Or 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?
A54793Priestl What should the People follow them for, like a Company of Phanaticks, as they are?
A54793Then he''s high enough; what need he Play the Fool, for Church- Preferment?
A54793Very honestly spoken, what think you?
A54793Well — have ye done now?
A54793Well — what think you of it now?
A54793Well, but how did he do it?
A54793Well, but where are the Culverin, and the Demiculverin?
A54793Well, but where are these Presbyterian Plotters?
A54793Well, — but what say you to the Sermon it self?
A54793What They d''ye mean?
A54793What a happy thing''t is, to hear an A- la- mode Sermon?
A54793What care some Men for that?
A54793What d''ye mean by Serving the King Substantially, and to the purpose?
A54793What d''ye talk?
A54793What if they should tell you that the Moon were made of Green- Cheese, would you believe''em?
A54793What is such a one?
A54793What is such a one?
A54793What of all this?
A54793What then?
A54793What then?
A54793What''s here but a Zealous Complement?
A54793What''s that to you, if the Gentleman had a peculiar Kindness for Valerius Maximus?
A54793What''s that?
A54793What?
A54793Where have you pick''d up that?
A54793Where was his Christian Charity?
A54793Which way?
A54793Who are the Fanaticks?
A54793Who shall be Judge of that?
A54793Why do they not pay them?
A54793Why dost thou stay and pause?
A54793Why now then let me ask thee, What is the Meaning of all this Clutter and Hurly- burly?
A54793Why should you be angry at this?
A54793Why then I''le propose a way — What think ye of a National Council?
A54793Why, what Exceptions do you make against their Quotations?
A54793Why, what if it did produce him Twenty broad Pieces, or so?
A54793Will ye blame him for his gratitude?
A54793Will you hear his own words?
A54793Would it not be fine sport, to hear the Pulpits ring with the Habeas Corpus Act, or the Statute of Jeofails?
A54793You will not let him read the Liturgy of England in a Church, where would you have him read it?
A54793Your Crape- Gown men, d''ye mean?
A54793and do not the streets ring of their Plots?
A54793are they Men or Mice?
A54793because Tertullian disallows it?
A54793or have they got every one a Gyges''s Ring in their Pockets?
A54793or how far it will operate upon a gaping Country Fellow, to bid him not Swear in vain?
A54793upon the top of the Monument?
A54793were there none of them neither?
A54793what then?
A54793what 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?
A4533613. and cryed down Moses and Aaron; the Lord shewed a dreadful Judgement on them and their consorts; Why?
A4533614. Who made me a Iudge?
A4533614. Who made me a judge?
A453364 The Question still will bee, whether Christ ta ● ght publiquely before hee was thirty, and before hee was baptized, or after?
A4533642, 46. and to teach and preach in the Synagogues so commonly as hee did?
A453365. Who is Paul?
A45336Admit she had preached, yet where was it?
A45336All that have gifts must use them, true; but where?
A45336And if once you found Christ walking amongst us, how is it that yo do now leave us?
A45336And if we must give our selves wholly to Reading, where is the Nayling?
A45336And might not the Prophet have alledged this, and that with a better pretence and colour then they?
A45336And then asketh the Question, Are all Apostles?
A45336And they i. e. the Priests and Levites, which Iehosaphat sent, taught the People; How?
A45336Are all Prophets?
A45336Are all Prophets?
A45336Are our times such?
A45336Are there any more?
A45336Are we less, and not rather more reformed then we were?
A45336Are ye holier and wiser then Christ?
A45336Art thou guilty, or not guilty?
A45336But how shal they attaine this?
A45336But what said the Gifted Brother to this Argument?
A45336But when hath a man a Call?
A45336But where say they, do you prove this?
A45336But who are they that have this gift?
A45336But you will acknowledge them to be a Reformed Church?
A45336But you will say as Hazael; Are we dogs, that we should hold such errors as these?
A45336By whom wilt thou be tried?
A45336Call the rest of the Reformed Churches; the Church of Helvetia, Bohemia, Ausperg,& c. What can you say against this new- found Officer?
A45336Can you say any more against them?
A45336Did you ever read of true conversion ordinarily in a false Church?
A45336Do you know what you say?
A45336Doth not the Apostle from this very ground, argue the truth of his Apostleship?
A45336Doth not the Prophet seem to say the quite contrary?
A45336Have you any more evidence besides these Ordinances, to batter the Tower of Babel?
A45336Have you called a full Iury?
A45336He hath set[ some] in the Church,& c. Are all Apostles?
A45336Hence the Apostle tells us he was i made a Minister of the Church; but how?
A45336How can these be seen and known, but by Preaching?
A45336How can you call it a Scotish covenant, when''t was ratified, framed, sealed, and confirmed by both Kingdoms?
A45336How is that proved?
A45336How shall a man bee able to Analize and open many obscure phrases in Scripture, without Logick, Rhetorick, Tongues?
A45336How shall a man bee able to preserve the Truth in its purity, against Heretickes, without Learning?
A45336How shall they preach, except they be sent?
A45336How?
A45336I answer therefore by way of concession, and grant that the Apostle forbids women and enjoyns men to preach: but what men?
A45336I shall only adde the Fryar that would prove God made ten Worlds, from the words of Christ, Annon decem facti sunt mundi?
A45336I will that thou ordain Elders, What need Paul leave Titus in Crete to ordaine men, if every gifted brother may preach without Ordination?
A45336I: Call in Mr. Cotton: Vo ● ● avez Mr. Cotton: Do you approve of these mens Preaching?
A45336If Paul kept a double Calling( say they) why may not we Nayl and Preach, Patch and Preach, Weave and Preach?
A45336If no Reformed Church did ever re- Baptize such as were Baptized by them, why should Ministers be re- ordained, more then re- Baptized?
A45336If the presence of Christ, both of his power and grace be with us, why will you deny us your presence?
A45336Inclamant, vociferantur, Universitates vestrae sunt universae pestes, Ergò versae sint universae: Seminaria Pietatis?
A45336Is it not apparent that our Ministers are sent by God ▪ because their Embassage is made successful by God for the good of Souls?
A45336It may be my Sons have sinned, and blessed God?
A45336Iudg: Have you any more Evidence?
A45336J: Wee shall cleere that presently; 1 Call Renowned Perkins, a man famous both at home and abroad, on Isay 6, Whom shall I send?
A45336J: What is your judgement of these men?
A45336J: What would you have done to him?
A45336No, who keeps you out?
A45336Nonne fervens ille Elias irridet cultores Baal?
A45336Nonne gravissimus ille Calvinus Reliquiis Pontificiis animum relaxavit suum?
A45336Nonne justus ille Iob{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman} usus est in ami ● os dolosos?
A45336P: But wherein have I broken the Covenant?
A45336Q When did these dispersed Disciples of the Apostles, though not Apostles, Preach?
A45336Quid multa?
A45336Rude?
A45336Sed quid ago?
A45336Sed quid facem Soil?
A45336The Jews sent Priests and Levites from Hierusalem: and who were they?
A45336The second Quaere will be ▪ When he preached?
A45336Then farewel Magistrates, Ministers, Judges, Parliaments,& c. If every man may execute these Offices without a Call, what need we any of them?
A45336Thirdly, then all should Baptize;( for Christ hath joyned Preaching and Baptizing) and then what need Christ give Pastors and Teachers?
A45336This is to the purpose: Have you yet any more say?
A45336We will inquire who it was that Preached?
A45336What can bee more fully said to this point?
A45336What can you say against the prisoner at the Bar?
A45336What can you say against the prisoner at the Bar?
A45336What followes?
A45336What have we to do with Jewish corrupt Customes?
A45336What is a Church without Order, but a little Hell above ground?
A45336What is it then for the meanest of the People to make themselves ministers of God?
A45336What knowest thou O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband?
A45336What sayst thou?
A45336What was he?
A45336What were the gifts and endowments of the Minister?
A45336Where did they Preach?
A45336Whether a man may change his Calling?
A45336Which is the truest?
A45336Which of these is most genuine?
A45336Who is that?
A45336Why, what did they?
A45336Will the Lord concur with those Ministers whom he sends not?
A45336and who Apollo?
A45336are our Stevens stoned, our flocks scattered and dispersed our Ministers all banished and gone?
A45336be thought more necessary to the being of a Minister, then Baptis ● is to the being of a ● h ● istian?
A45336he meaneth, who is able to read?
A45336what can you say, Mr. Ainsworth, against the Prisoner at the Barr?
A45336without gifts and abilities?
A45336— Ridentem dicere verum Quid vetat?
A33332( No) or very happy?
A33332( Yes) In the Image of God?
A33332( Yes) In what condition then was man created by God at first?
A33332Alas, what should this Child say to us?
A33332Am I a Child of God?
A33332Am I not able to promote thee?
A33332An honest Argument, but not Italian enough; Quis nisi mentis inops?
A33332And it came to passe when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said unto him, Art thou he that troubleth Israel?
A33332And what can be long to him that thinks his life but a span long?
A33332And what( saith he) is Belzebub?
A33332And why?
A33332Are not many branches of the Church cut off already, and more in hazard?
A33332Are not our Allies wasted?
A33332Are they of all other past hope of repentance?
A33332Are you, Madam, willing to go unto him?
A33332Being asked what he thought of himself, whether he should now die or recover?
A33332But now who should succeed?
A33332But some refractory spirits( as what Minister doth not?)
A33332But, Lord, if thou hast a purpose now to call her home to thy self, who are we that we should contradict thy holy will?
A33332Devil raged, blasphemed, and said, And wilt thou go to prayer?
A33332Devil: Thou art a murtherer thy self, and yet talkest thou thus?
A33332Devil: What stand I talking with thee?
A33332Do you think that forreign Princes will hereafter make any account of your Oath?
A33332Et Quid paras dentem,& ventrem?
A33332For his employments that himself so much undervalued, what were they?
A33332Hath not God by his Almighty power dispossed him?
A33332Have not things been long going down the hill, and are even now hastning to a period?
A33332Have you forgotten the treacherous plots that were laid by him for your Head?
A33332He asked one of them, Who is that ye mean?
A33332He asked them, what was their names?
A33332He suspecting them to be the men that had sworn to take away his life, spake to them thus; Friends, what is your business?
A33332He 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?
A33332He would often say in his sicknesse, I am not afraid to look death in the face; I can say, death, where is thy sting?
A33332He 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?
A33332Here is a man opens not his lips, and yet he speaketh?
A33332How exceeding mercifull is my God unto me?
A33332How shall he take care of the Church of God?
A33332If we will not believe his Word, yet will we not believe his Actions?
A33332In a word, have not our enterprizes been blasted, and withered under our hands for the most part?
A33332In what condition was man created by God at the first?
A33332Is it our Minister?
A33332Non annos meos, sed victorias numero: Not how long I have lived, but how?
A33332Now also what should I speak of the daily plunderings and murthers?
A33332O grave, where is thy victory?
A33332Or by what confidence doth he exercise such cruelty against the Kings faithfull Subjects?
A33332Or do not the mercies of God, wherewith your mouth is so oft sugred, of all other, belong to them?
A33332Rothwel, Thou sayest there is no possession, what thinkest thou now?
A33332The Devil continued to curse and swear further, saying, How canst thou endure to hear thy God blasphemed?
A33332The Keeper replied, Do you then minde to stand to your Religion?
A33332The Master of a flie: and if he be but so, what are these?
A33332The next morning Master Balsom going to visit him again, found him in a comfortable condition; and asking of him, how he did?
A33332Then did he proceed to propose to her this question; Madam, Do you verily believe that Jesus Christ came into the world to save you?
A33332Then did the Duke of Guise from below ask if the businesse were done?
A33332Then the Admirall turning to de Cosse, said, Do you not remember, Sir, what I told you of late?
A33332There was a Soothsayer that told Agathocles he should be slain the next moneth: who asked, How long he thought he should live after him?
A33332They assuring him, they intended really the setting of him at liberty; He asked what they thought would become of them?
A33332To whom he answered, Truly Assurance is to be had, and what have we been doing all this while?
A33332Was he made miserable?
A33332What an unworthy thing is it Sir, that an Oath so solemnly sworn, should be so much slighted and neglected?
A33332What can be great to him that counts the world nothing?
A33332What is the matter?
A33332What is the sign( saith Hezekias, when he promised recovery) that I shall go up to the house of the Lord?
A33332What needs more words?
A33332What?
A33332What?
A33332When he saw a Christian to look sad, he would use that speech which Johnadab did to Amnon, Art not thou a Kings Son?
A33332When his servants came to visit him in the morning, he would say, have ye been with God to blesse him for your sleep this night?
A33332When towards his end he was asked, how he did?
A33332While he was preparing to go with them, he heard a Post ride in, asking hastily, Is the Prisoner yet alive?
A33332Who am I?
A33332Wilt thou pray for a man that is damned?
A33332and am I in my calling or way?
A33332and are you so credulous as to believe his oaths, when he sweareth that he minded no treachery?
A33332and divers other great Cities, both of Normandy and Brittany, sought my favour and protection?
A33332and do you expect the full forgivenesse of all your sins by the shedding of his blood for you?
A33332and what do I here?
A33332and where should Master Preston find another shelter?
A33332and whether the Admirall knew of it?
A33332and 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?
A33332are not ye the men that have sworn to take away my life?
A33332do you not yet know that the only name of the Admirall can prevail more for you then a great Army without him?
A33332for to deserve so sharp an opposition, but envy moved them?
A33332que nous dira cest enfant ioy?
A33332that 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?
A33332to 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?
A33332whereunto she answered, she knew not; then, What meanes of Maintenance she had, and from whom?
A39232A day for a man to afflict his soul?
A39232And Mesha King of Moab was a Sheep- master, and rendered unto the King of Israel an hundred thousand Lambs: and what follows?
A39232And 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?
A39232And is not Patience better than the great Tithes, and Contentedness to be preferred before large Fees and Customs?
A39232And must he needs be void of all Grace, though he has a shilling in his Purse after the Rates be cross''d?
A39232And now, shall we think that such Employments as these can any way consist with due reverence, or tolerable respect from a Parish?
A39232And was not the condition of most of his Disciples very mean?
A39232And what though Churches stand at a little further distance?
A39232And who could expect less?
A39232As for the rest, having exactly learned, Quid est Logica?
A39232Bring no more vain oblations,& c. your New- Moons and your appointed Feasts my Soul hateth?
A39232But art thou in good earnest my excellent Contriver?
A39232But has it not gone very hard in all ages with the men of God?
A39232But he answered and said, Who is my Mother?
A39232But may not some say, is God altogether for new things?
A39232But pray, why the Aqua- fortis of Tears?
A39232But shall we debar Youth of such an innocent and harmless Recreation, of such a great quickner of parts, and promoter of sagacity?
A39232But, can not a Clergy- man chuse rather to lie upon Feathers than an Hardle, but he must be idle, soft, and effeminate?
A39232Do ye see, Sir, the same letter?
A39232First then, our Saviour was in Aries; or else what means that of the Psalmist?
A39232For one may desire but to know this one thing: In what profession shall that sort of Wit prove of advantage?
A39232For, 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?
A39232Here''s a very choice Armory: shall I shew you an Helmet of Salvation, a Shield or a Breast- plate of Faith?
A39232How does she strut it, and swagger it over all the world, terrifying Princes, and despising Kings and Emperors?
A39232How far to Lammas, or Offerings?
A39232Is it not, that he slew a thousand of the Philistines with one new Iaw- bone?
A39232Is it such a Fast that I have chosen?
A39232Is it to bow down his head like a Bulrush?
A39232May he not desire wholesome Food, and fresh Drink, unless he be a cheat, a Hypocrite and an Impostor?
A39232May we venture them into the Desk to read Service?
A39232Neither did the Apostles think of any such way: I wonder whom they take for a pattern?
A39232Now, what a lucky discovery was this, that a man''s body should be so exactly like an Apple?
A39232Now, what an admirable thing this is?
A39232Now, what may not a Divine do, though but of ordinary parts, and unhappy education, with such learned helps and assistances as these?
A39232Or of Cancer?
A39232Or to be seated upon a soft and well grinded pouch of Meal?
A39232Or will you please to walk in, and see some precious Stones?
A39232Or, shall we trust them in some good Gentlemens houses, there to perform holy things?
A39232Shall I fit you with a robe of roghteousness, or with a white Garment?
A39232Sirs, What must I do to be saved?
A39232Speak, what do you buy?
A39232Suppose there should be one or so in the whole Church that understands somewhat besides English; shall not I think that he understands that better?
A39232They 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?
A39232Was not our Lord and Master, our Great and High Priest; and was not his fare low, and his life full of trouble?
A39232Were not they notably pinch''d, and severely treated after him?
A39232What 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?
A39232What 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?
A39232What an huge blaze he makes in the Church?
A39232What are the People about Carlisle better''d by his Instructions and advice who lives at Dover?
A39232What need I speak of Gemini?
A39232What then shall we do with them, and where shall we dispose of them until they come to a holy Ripeness?
A39232When shall we have another Christening and Cakes, and who is likely to marry or die?
A39232Whence will come the next rejoycing Goose, or the next cheerful Basket of Apples?
A39232Where went he to School?
A39232Whose Sow has lately Pigg''d?
A39232Will you buy any Balm of Gilead, any Eye- salve, any Myrrh, Aloes or Cassia?
A39232a Iasper, a Saphyre, or a Chalcedonit?
A39232and Quot sunt Virtutes Morales?
A39232and What Author is he best and chiefly skill''d in?
A39232and who are my Brethren?
A39232how the Fresh- men will skip to hear one of those lines well laught at, that they have been so often yerk''d for?
A39232how would it rejoice their hearts, and encourage them in their Office?
A39232quid est Ecclesia?
A39232quot sunt Concilia Generalia?
A39232thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back?
A39232what 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?
A39232what do you by?
A39232what is it you want?
A39232when as the Psalmist says so plainly: What ailed thee, O thou Sea, that thou fleddest?
A39232which 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?
A26686Abiathar was put out by two Princes, who were inspired by God,( and who knows but they may do it by extraordinary direction?)
A26686And are they like to edify in holiness, who are apparently the venemous Enemies of Holiness?
A26686And hath not God charged, that you † trade with your Talents?
A26686And 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?
A26686And if the Magistrate can not make your Relation to the Church to cease, how can he make the Duty of that Relation to cease?
A26686And is a Fine or a Prison enough to stop the mouths of Gods Servants nowadays by the hundreds?
A26686And shall not the necessity of Souls loose yours?
A26686And shall the true Shepherds flee, as* soon as they see the Wolves, and leave the Sheep?
A26686Are not you the Shepherds of the Flocks?
A26686Are not you the † Physicians of the Churches?
A26686Are we not required to continue in Doctrine, as ever we would save our selves, or them that hear us?
A26686Bear with us, we beseech you; Are these things true, or are they not?
A26686Brethren, let us deal plainly with God and with men; Why then is this great Duty now neglected?
A26686Brethren, what will work upon us, if we will be quickned neither by the consideration of God''s Glory, nor our own?
A26686But did they give over?
A26686But how little is God glorified by you either way, while you sit still?
A26686By what is the Gospel* more furthered than by the Bonds and Tribulations of its Ministers?
A26686By † whom is God Glorified so much as by his suffering Witnesses?
A26686Consider we beseech you, what are we for, but our Maker''s Ends?
A26686Do not your † hearts tremble for the Ark of GOD?
A26686Do you not know that too many of them hate it, both name and thing?
A26686Do you say, This is a carnal Argument?
A26686Do you see it falling, and yet withdraw your shoulders, and keep your hands in your bosomes?
A26686Doth God charge us so deply, so dreadfully, and shall we think our selves discharged if man contradict it?
A26686Fathers, where then are your Bowels?
A26686Finally, Hath not the Lord ordained you to be his* Prophets?
A26686For 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?
A26686Further, Are not you they, that* are set for the defence and confirmation of the Gospel?
A26686Hath Christ suffered for us, both as our † Surety, and Pattern?
A26686Hath not God said, Necessity is laid on you, and VVO unto you if you preach not the Gespel?
A26686Hath 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?
A26686Hath the Gospel lost ground by them?
A26686Have the former Saints thirsted for the Crown of Martyrdom, and* gloried in the Cross of Christ?
A26686He that hath their hearts, shall have their prayers; and is that a little thing?
A26686How hungry are their souls?
A26686If not, why have we taught them?
A26686If the Magistrate did not constitute and cause this Relation, how can he make it to cease?
A26686If you are indeed sensible of the Famine, how can you keep in the Corn?
A26686In a word, Are you † Nurses, and yet deny your Sucklings your brest?
A26686Is it indeed † all joy to fall into divers temptations, and are we afraid to venture?
A26686Is it not manifestly and mostly with[ Blind- Guides] with Spiteful Shepherds, or rather Wolves in Shepherds cloathing?
A26686Is it not really* a Glorious Priviledge to suffer for Christ, and a † Badg of singular Honour?
A26686Is 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?
A26686Is this like Timothy † naturally to care sor their state?
A26686Is this our tenderness to the* Children that God hath given us?
A26686Is* this to cherish them as a Nurse cherisheth her Children?
A26686Now 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?
A26686O how much is the glory of Christ, and good of souls, bound up in you?
A26686O think, by whom shall these be gathered?
A26686Shall none of their miseries nor necessities move you?
A26686Shall we go from Words to Tears?
A26686Shall we humbly mind you of the relation wherein you stand, and the strong obligations resulting thence?
A26686Shall we mind you of Pauls example and charge?
A26686Shall we we fall from arguing to begging?
A26686Shall you with Jona, fly to Tarshish, when the Lord sends you about your work?
A26686Should not the* Pillars of the Lord''s House stand upright under their weight?
A26686Though you are forbidden to set open the Windows and keep Publick Trading, yet what hinders but that you may have a private Warehouse?
A26686To 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?
A26686Was not this the Apostles case again and again?
A26686Was 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?
A26686We know the Magistrate doth not pretend to this: And if none but Christ did, nor could Commissionate you, can any but He discharge you?
A26686We seem to see the famishing cheeks approaching you, and calling for relief, expostulating as they, Wherefore should we dye before thine eyes?
A26686What a loude refutation of their callumnies would your engaging to purpose in the work of God be at such a time as this?
A26686What a small thing is Riches or Poverty; Sickness or Health; Liberty or Bonds, unless in order to his Glory?
A26686What are the next ends of the Ministry in sum, but † Conversion and* Edification?
A26686What lewd lyes will all these imputations appear to be, if the Lord stir you up to holy an activity?
A26686What should you then do but set to the Work?
A26686When had you such an advantage to get setled Assurance and Peace as now?
A26686When should they shew their care and diligence, their solicitude and watchfulness, if not when the beasts of prey come to tear, and to destroy?
A26686When was there such a time to lay up treasure in Heaven as now?
A26686Where are the † soundings of thy Bowels?
A26686Where doth the* Spirit of God and of Glory rest but upon suffering Saints?
A26686Whether God hath forsaken those of his Ministers, that have set to their work, since the day of that fatal stroke?
A26686Whether you can see Religion sinking, falling, dying away, and you never put your hands and shoulders to it, and yet be blameless?
A26686Whether you had your Commission, Office and Authority from the Magistrate, and your Power in, and relation to the Church, be of a Civil Stamp?
A26686Whether you think in your hearts, that the Ministry that now is, will ever keep up the Power of Godliness?
A26686Whether* there will a blessing follow him that keepeth in his Corn in a time of Famine?
A26686Who can see others at work, and partake of strangers labours, when you their Shepherds give over your care for their souls?
A26686Who is there, that being as I am, would flee?
A26686Who shall chuse our words for us?
A26686Who shall free you from that Wo, or loose your bonds of that necesse, if yet you sit still in silence?
A26686Who will not presage a fatal change, when the † keepers of the house tremble, and the strong men bow themselves?
A26686Why are they no more visited?
A26686Why do you not call upon and quicken them frequently by these?
A26686Why should not we answer with them, † It is better to obey God than man?
A26686Why then do you neglect that of your work which would not expose to Pesecution?
A26686Will our Lord be put off by this, as a sufficient answer for our loytering, that others were a labouring?
A26686Will you not care that the Ministry be not blamed, and study to roul off so colourable an occasion of reproach?
A26686You are the Champions of the Lord; and shall not you be* valiant for the Truth upon Earth?
A26686and 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?
A26686and confess your Lord in the face of danger, though in † midst of a wicked and adulterous generation?
A26686and have we such a Cloud of Martyrs, that have so stoutly led the Van?
A26686and shall We shift off our Work for fear of Persecution?
A26686and shall we flinch at the beginning of any Suffering?
A26686and shall we make them believe, by our flinching, that these things were not so?
A26686and so indeed, whether God shall have any Church or no?
A26686and when should they ply their Patients, unless when in most danger to be infected with the mortal Plague, and common Leprosie of the Times?
A26686and whom should we believe in this, sooner then those that have tryed the worst?
A26686and will not you stand to your work, against the † contradictions of men, that would* make the work of the Lord to cease?
A26686and yet do you let your Talents lie unoccupied?
A26686any Service or no?
A26686do not they plainly make it, not the Prize they aim at, but the But they shoot at?
A26686how do they hang upon your lips?
A26686how early will they rise?
A26686how far will they travel?
A26686how should Christ''s Kingdom and Interest, and the Power of Holiness be suported by these hands?
A26686if they be, why do we not live up to them?
A26686may you not preach to a private Family, or single person?
A26686or Physicians, that have themselves the Plague sores running upon them?
A26686or from the multitude and weight of their publick Imployments?
A26686or sensual Shepherds, that feed themselves, and not the Flocks?
A26686or take away what( confessedly) he can not give?
A26686shall not a willing People, make a willing Ministry?
A26686shall the † Jachin and Boaz of the Temple be as a man without strength?
A26686shall 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?
A26686were not they commanded,* yea strictly charged, not to preach any more?
A26686were not this to make it to be at the Magistrates pleasure whether Christ shall have any Ministry or no?
A26686what are we good for, for what do we serve, but only for his Pleasure?
A26686where are the movings of their Bowels?
A26686whether there shall be any Preaching or not?
A26686will you not rather say, with resolution, as holy Nehemiah, Shall such a man as I flee?
A26686with[ Cruel Fathers] that* that give stones instead of bread, and Scorpions for Fish?
A26686with[ 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)?
A730232 But now England, how hast thou requited this kindnesse of the Lorde?
A730233 Are good Ministers so thinne sowne?
A73023A Minister is to declare the reconciliation betwixt God and man, and is hee himselfe not reconciled?
A73023A question or inquirie made by God; When shall I send, and who shall goe for vs?
A73023Againe, might not the Prophet haue alledged that with a better pretence and colour then they?
A73023Alas, alas, is not that a simple& a silly search where such blockes as these are, lye vnspied?
A73023All 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?
A73023Also I heard the voyce of the Lorde, saying, whom shall I send, and who shall goe for vs?
A73023Also, I heard the voice of the Lord saying, whom shall I send?
A73023And if Paul said, Who is?
A73023And not to run vpon priuate motions, Ob, How shall I know when God calles me?
A73023And shall God suffer so foule a wickednesse to lye vnpunished?
A73023And some want willingnesse to vndertake the labour, as God here complaineth; Who shall goe for vs?
A73023And they teach, a man may in this life perfectly fulfill the Lawe, but who can doe it, i ● not ministers?
A73023And what ministers, if not extraordinary prophets?
A73023Are not these goodly liuings for learned men?
A73023But alas, can not the Kings Messenger or Officer be honoured, vnlesse he be set vpon the Kings throne?
A73023But for the matter: Are apparitions from heauen so ordinary in the popish Church?
A73023But it will then be demaunded, how may I know if God bid me goe?
A73023But let those men marke heere the phrase of this holy Prophet, when God asked, Whom shall I send?
A73023But may not another Christian do it?
A73023But then it may be demanded, why the Lorde saith so?
A73023But to goe further: whence came this Coale?
A73023But what doth this belong to them alone?
A73023But what kinde of seruantes are they?
A73023But, if we will not doe this, then alas, what wil follow?
A73023By this inquirie, and question made by God, whom shall I send, and who shall goe for vs?
A73023Can hee commend the state of Grace to another, and neuer felt the sweetenesse thereof in his owne soule?
A73023Dare he present another man to Gods mercy for pardon, and neuer yet presented himselfe?
A73023Dare hee come to preach sanctification with polluted lips, and out of an vnsanctified heart?
A73023Doe yee thus requite the Lord: O foolish people& vnwise?
A73023Euen cry to the mountaines, fall vpon vs: and to the hils, couer vs, and hide vs: from what?
A73023Euen so it is with a nation, or a people: are they taught, and are they worse and worse?
A73023For shal the Oxes mouth be mousled, which treads out the corne, or shall a man goe to warre at his owne cost?
A73023For what though thou hast mightie men of this world against thee, when thou hast angels for thee?
A73023Hee 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?
A73023How foule a thing is it that amongst so many, the Lord should haue cause to complaine; Whom shall wee send?
A73023How?
A73023If any aske, how he shal know when Gods calles him?
A73023If any man aske; But is it not as good if another man pronounce forgiuenesse vnto me vpon my repentance?
A73023If then God hath stood knocking at our hearts fiue& thirtie yeares: is it not now time to bee gone, vnlesse we open presently?
A73023In the last place, let vs marke what God saith: Whom shall I send,& who shal goe for vs?
A73023In 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?
A73023Is it not then an honour and happinesse vnto thee to bring thy sonne to this estate?
A73023Now we come to the second general point here laid down: that is, whom must we Search?
A73023Now, how did this people( thus beloued of their God,) requite this his loue, which they had no more deserued, then any other Nation?
A73023O what is this, that I haue done against God, against his Church, and against my owne soule?
A73023Reade Saint Iohn, whose sinnes soeuer you remit, they are remitted; whose you retaine, they are retained: will you haue the meaning of both?
A73023Repent, or else certainely God will take vengeance: But( will mans heart say) is this true?
A73023Shall they be so diligent to destroy soules without a commission, and incurre Gods curse for their labour?
A73023The Lord knoweth who are his, and neede not to aske whom shall I send, or who shall goe?
A73023The second vse concernes the ministers also: are they Gods Angels?
A73023The third point: Who must search?
A73023Thirdly, let vs obserue how the Lord saith: Who shal( I) send?
A73023This should bee the end of their preaching, to deliuer a soule from hell:& what should Commissioners doe, but execute their Commission?
A73023This 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?
A73023What place is it they holde?
A73023Whence came this Coale?
A73023Where is the cause?
A73023Why should we search our selues?
A73023Why then should they so much condemne them, for such faults, as wherein themselues haue made them faultie?
A73023Will any man endure alwayes to bee mocked, then how long hath God beene mocked?
A73023Will any man endure to stand knocking continually?
A73023Will you knowe the meaning hereof?
A73023and can there bee any darknesse at Noone day, but it must bee wilfull?
A73023and hath not God ordained( marke, it is his Ordinance) that those which teach the Gospel, shall liue of the Gospel?
A73023and how foule a staine is it to the honour of his calling, to be polluted in the common pollutions of his people?
A73023and is Israel onely a Nation not worthy to be beloued?
A73023and may not wee expect a learned ministerie, where there is such maintenance?
A73023and shall wee continue so still?
A73023and should not a man look about him, afore he come there?
A73023and then changing the number, hee saith: Who shall goe for v ●?
A73023and who shall gae for vs?
A73023are there so few of them?
A73023how may I know if God bid me goe?
A73023or to him, who, when thy cause is in triall at the barre, will pleade it for thee?
A73023or to him, who, when thy health is lost, can tell thee how to get it againe?
A73023or who shall be sent to such a parish?
A73023shall Baal haue his 4. hundred prophets, and God haue his Elias alone?
A73023so can not Angels be honoured, vnlesse they be made Gods, or Sauiours, or mediators?
A73023they 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?
A73023what are moulehils, when such mountaines are not seene?
A73023what did Nathan heere, but the duty of euery true minister?
A73023what place or office haue they?
A73023will nothing serue him, but the Crowne and Scepter?
A14003An ● if the roote be rotten, what may be thought of the branches?

A14003Can they not sleepe, except they haue done euill?

A14003If we be diligent in our owne affaires, how much more diligent should we be in Gods?
A14003If we must loue k all men, and if we must be gentle towards all men, is it seemely for vs to hate one another?
A14003Indeed o the wicked practiseth against the iust, and gnasheth his teeth against him; but wilt thou be so wicked?

A41233( besides other places) quite out of his minde?
A4123328?
A412337. he confesseth that the Office of Ministers is meant in the same place, why then not prophesying; when they are equally called gifts?
A412337. if this be not a distinct Office from the Membership of others?
A41233A faithfull Ministry hath been alwaies esteemed the greatest blessing, and is it now become the greatest curse?
A41233A 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?
A41233Again, If one man may go without sending, why not another?
A41233And can that be an unlawful Ministery, that hath brought in so many souls to God?
A41233And hath not he promised to be with them to the end of the world?
A41233And if no true Churches, who hath power to send them to preach, that question the Call of others?
A41233And is it nothing to make him your Enemy?
A41233And is the Ministery the only Office to be run upon without a Call?
A41233And was not John commissioned for the service?
A41233And were not Presbyters long before Jesuite, Priest or Bishop either( in his sense?)
A41233Are any gifts of God to be contemned?
A41233Are not gifting and saying go, two distinct acts?
A41233Are not their gifts manifest?
A41233Are they not able to speak some things the word holds out?
A41233Are they now so evil, who have been the Instruments of so much good?
A41233Are we weary of our mercies, or are we weary of God, or rather is not God weary of us?
A41233Are you now so strengthned against Popery, that you need their help no longer?
A41233Are you so secure from Gods Judgements, that you need their intercession no longer?
A41233Be chiefly in the examination of your selves, with what face will you reprove others, when your own faults are more eminent?
A41233Because there is some difference in their service, therefore must their Offices be questioned?
A41233But if when they baptized, there were not other Christians, whom did they baptiz?
A41233But what must we think of those who have but few or small gifts, whose greatest gift is to talk of gifts?
A41233But what need further testimony?
A41233But what need we trifle in Expositions, when the word is so clear?
A41233But where doth the Scripture mention gifted brethren more then gifted women?
A41233By what authority dost thou these things, and who gave thee this authority?
A41233Can he without blushing accuse them of walking in the Devils darknesse?
A41233Can it be thought that man must be only passive in the work of his salvation?
A41233Can that Calling be unnecessary, which was appointed for the perfecting of the Saints, for the edifying of the body of Christ?
A41233Can that Office be evil that is ordained by God himself?
A41233Can the encrease of mercy free us from, or should it engage us more to duty?
A41233Can they not exhort to what God commands, and reprove the acting of what God forbids?
A41233Can this be hurtfull?
A41233Can this lessen their gift, or render their persons more offensive?
A41233Could his personall wickednesse evacuate all the civill or religious Acts( although good in themselves) he did by vertue of his Office?
A41233Did Jerusalem ever prosper, when the Prophets were slain?
A41233Did they baptize when they were but ordinary Christians, before they were sent forth by Christ?
A41233Did you ever reade that the Ministery was lost to a people, and that God staied long after?
A41233Duty 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?
A41233For which of their good deeds would ye kill them?
A41233Hath Baptism been so long out of fashion, that he hath forgotten the words of it?
A41233Hath his new and clear light dazled his eyes?
A41233Have not the Ministers been the Horsemen and Chariots of Israel?
A41233Have not they stood between you and Popery for these many years?
A41233Have not they stood in the gap between you and Gods indignation many a time?
A41233Holy Ghosts?
A41233How can gifted brethren take to them any of these Titles, unlesse they be in the number of those Officers?
A41233How easie is it for people to mistake?
A41233How now?
A41233How shall they preach except they be sent?
A41233How then got he to be of a Church, or when did the true Church begin?
A41233I confess the means is not effectual to all, but must it be therefore used to none?
A41233I shall only propose what he asked, p. 44. Who are the unquiet men, the gifted brethren or the Ministers?
A41233If abilities were given by the laying on of the hands of the Presbytery, what need of reading and meditation to acquire them?
A41233If all that have Gifts may do their work?
A41233If it be ordinary now, Why doth it not continue?
A41233If it were ordinary in the Primitive times, why was it given then by Revelation?
A41233If the Ministers of England are no true Ministers, then where are the true Churches?
A41233If the Shepherd be destroyed, who shall watch the flock, who shall prevent the worrying, the devouring of the sheep?
A41233If there be no interpreter; who shall declare to man his Righteousnesse?
A41233In how many places doth God complain of them that preach, yet are not sent; that run, yet he sent them not?
A41233Is duty more out of fashion now than it was?
A41233Is it that there is not work enough at home, that you are so busie abroad?
A41233Is it the liberty of Christians to be free from Gods service?
A41233Is not God himself ingaged in their quarrell?
A41233Is not the sin of your life enough to employ you in the examination of, and mourning for it?
A41233Is not this the Carpenters Son?
A41233Is the childe bred up only to scratch out the Fathers eyes?
A41233Is the constantly successive practice of the Churches in all ages of no prevalency?
A41233Is the past example of the Apostles of no value?
A41233Is there any such word in all the Scripture as Ghost?
A41233Is this all their Reward, to be beaten with the Weapons they have put into others hands?
A41233Is this the reward of their pains, the return of their prayers, sighs, groans and labours for you?
A41233It 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?
A41233It is urged: May not you do your self, what you may command your servant to do?
A41233It was afterward enquired, Whether any men were ever made Ministers by men since the Apostles daies, or those sent by them?
A41233Jehu was a wicked man, was therefore his pulling down the Idols of Baal evil?
A41233May not God, who in free love gives the reward, propose what condition he pleaseth?
A41233Nay, if Ministers were not made by men since the Apostles daies, who made these men such?
A41233Oh foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that you should not obey he truth?
A41233One 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?
A41233Or is this a just recompence now to cry them down?
A41233Or rather have not the Champions of Popery so insinuated, that they have perswaded you to cast off your defence?
A41233Praier depends upon beleeving, beleeving upon hearing, hearing upon a Preacher, and preaching upon Sending, How can they preach?
A41233Saith Apostle concerning Christ, To which of the Angels said he at any time; This is my Son, this day have I begotten thee?
A41233Shall the gifts of Fortune( so called) be imbraced, and shall the gifts of the minde, which are more excellent, be accounted lesse worthy?
A41233The Office of a Priest( saith he) was appointed by God; and was not the Office of Pastors and Teachers so too?
A41233The baptism of John whence is it?
A41233Think you that Aaron might make himself a Priest?
A41233To 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?
A41233Was ever this Text made good, and is it not this day fullfilled in our ears?
A41233Was it not only their desire to share in what they pretended evil in others, that was the cause of the outcry?
A41233Were not the Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors, Teachers, substituted by Christ under the Gospel?
A41233Were not the Prophets and Priests instituted by him under the Law?
A41233What are the Ministers the only troublers of Israel, that they are so troubled by all sorts of people?
A41233What ease, what advantage can it be to godly Ministers to threaten judgement against sinners, were it not for Gods command, and their profit?
A41233What 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?
A41233What instruction must be given, if duty must not be pressed?

A41233What spirit hath possessed the man?
A41233What testimony of Scripture doth he bring, which he doth not misapply?
A41233What then?
A41233What think you now?
A41233What wickednesse is in that?
A41233Where Isaiah was to go about Gods service, the Lord asked, Whem shall I send?
A41233Whether every man ought not to continue in the Calling in which God hath set him?
A41233Why had he not as well questioned what Timothy''s gift had been, when it was different from Pauls too?
A41233Why were not all that had gifts Prophets?
A41233Will people never be sensible of such mens abuses?
A41233Will the example of Vzzah prevail, who out of an honest intention but attempted what belonged to the Priests Office only, yet was severely punished?
A41233Would you violently thrust them out of the Church, who have travelled in birth to bring you into it?
A41233and then with violence to pursue what through- mistake they propose as good?
A41233can any gift of God unfit men for service?
A41233else what number is assigned, and what measure of gifts is competent?
A41233how can they dare perform any of this work, unless they are called to some of these functions?
A41233if not, why had not the darkness still covered it?
A41233if the holy Ghost were conferred by the imposition of Pauls hands, what need any other way to make his profiting appear?
A41233may they do all the service of an Officer, yet not execute the Office?
A41233or hath he been digging so long in the bottomlesse pit, that the smoak hath wholly beclouded him?
A41233what hardships do not only the Ministers, but the truth of Christ suffer from men of contrary mindes?
A41233which way went the Spirit of God from him?
A41233who are most like Corah, Dathan, and Abiram, and then may most fear their punishment?
A41233why not all?
A41233why not more?
A41233will not many of his own party contradict him in this?
A41233will not the making sure your title to Eternal happiness finde you work enough in private?
A41233will not they acknowledge, that many Ministers of England live holily, walk by the light of Gods Spirit?
A41233yet ignorant of this?
A494412. 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?
A4944122. not to lay hands suddenly on any?
A49441232 What is essential to the Constitution of a Bishop?
A494414. handles this Question under this Title, Whether Hereticks and Apostates which are baptized be parts and members of the Church?
A4944149. by what means the essential of this power may be Conveyed?
A49441A 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?
A49441AND then next I will examine, Whether the power of the Keyes was given to them, and them only?
A49441An Answer to a Question proposed in these late unhappy times to the Author, What is a Minister?
A49441An 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?
A49441And again in the same Epistle, Quid mihi praeter unius urbis C ● nsu ● tudinem?
A49441Are they Ministers of Christ?
A49441BUT yet we must not leave them, but examine, Whether there were any Addition made to these Apostles, and what that was?
A49441Baptism of the Disciples before Christs death, was the same with Johns?
A49441But could none else preach?
A49441But here if any should ask, What, must the people submit to any Pastor, though heretical, though scandalous in his life?
A49441But how then, may one say, is St. Pauls saying true, If a Son, then an Heir?
A49441But lest any man should doubt, whether these were Presbyters or no?
A49441But let us conceive what it is?
A49441But now it may be enquired, Was there no such Office as that of a Deacon proper to the Church?
A49441But now suppose his Consequence were good in Logick, will the Text bear him out in the matter?
A49441But see what weight Mr. Hookers Opinion hath: By this is meant a Deacon; what word shews it?
A49441But why so, I ask?
A49441Can any man answer me but out of Ecclesiastical Story?
A49441Can it imply depose?
A49441Can one fellow Presbyter Censure another, or he who is barely a Temporal Speaker or Mouth of the rest?
A49441Did Crete choose, or St. Paul ordain Titus their Minister?
A49441Doth the Text name none but these Pastors and Teachers?
A49441Ergo, I set down his words, and all his words; where hath he shewed that Presbyters elected their Bishop?
A49441FIrst, It may be questioned, whether the power of preaching was given to the Apostles, and them only?
A49441First, how farr the Essentials of the Ministry or Minister may be given by Man?
A49441For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care to rule the Church of God?
A49441GIfts here, are not such as are Common, and belong to all Christians, as Faith, Hope, Charity,& c. What if they are not?
A49441HIS Second Question is, Whether Ordination gives all the Essentials to an Officer?
A49441HIs Third Argument: If the Apostles who were extraordinary persons, could not, shall men of ordinary Abilities be sufficient?
A49441He answers immediately, Relata sunt quorum unum constat mutua alterius Affectione; This is non- sense; for should I ask, if Vnum, which of the two?
A49441Here is the drift of his Speech, and what word in all this tends to the Addition of any Ecclesiastical Officer?
A49441How can the Pope dispence with Divine Law?
A49441How can this be understood?
A49441How it was given by Prophesy?
A49441How many( to speak modestly) weaknesses may be observed in this Discourse?
A49441I Come now to the other dispute, Whether there be any distinction amongst these Offices, by Apostolical right?
A49441I Would ask, whether a new Duty added by this Covenant, or an old Duty which arose out of Baptism?
A49441I answer, what follows?
A49441I have answered, as I conceive, all that he speaks concerning his first Question, Whether Ordination or Election be first?
A49441I will not lose my self in his long period; Suppose these were sufficient Teaching Ministries, is there no more requisite but teaching?
A49441If a Pastor be an inconsistent Office with a Teacher, why doth Mr. Hooker teach, and so Logically endeavour to prove his Doctrine?
A49441If any man object St. Pauls How can he preach unlesse he be sent?
A49441If not, what can they do?
A49441If the Ministration of Death was glorious, how shall not the Ministration of the Spirit be rather glorious?
A49441If there be so many, what is that to the purpose?
A49441If 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?
A49441In whom the right of dispensing it lyes, and by whom it may be dispensed?
A49441Indeed all the other are helps, and most of them Governments, and therefore he could not use this phrase to them, are all helps,& c.?
A49441Is it possible to conclude any thing peremptorily?
A49441It is answered, because it was fire, had the form the burning form of fire: Why did that grow?
A49441It is reported of Salvianus, that he wrote and penned Homilies, which others preached and repeated, which of these( think you) was the Preacher?
A49441Men and brethren, what shall we do?
A49441NOW then, to draw this Discourse to some period, there were other Apostles besides the first Twelve, and St. Paul the Thirteenth but why so?
A49441Now ask, why did a Corporation do this or that, let this Lease, make that man free?
A49441Ordination be before Election?
A49441Ordination gives all the Essentials to an Officer?
A49441Our Saviour complains, My God, my God why hast thou forsaken me?
A49441Proposing this Question, Whether Baptism doth give formality to make a Member of a visible Church?
A49441St. Paul therefore saith of such, How shall he preach, unlesse he be sent?
A49441Suppose I should deny his Major; have the people power to do any thing that is an act of order?
A49441Suppose they did Consist in a mutual Affection one of another, could one properly be said to give the Essentials to the other?
A49441THE next thing to be looked upon, is, Whether these and these onely had the power of baptizing?
A49441THen he enters into a Second Question, how far this Covenant requires Cohabitation?
A49441THere is a great Dispute betwixt Cardinal Bellarmine and others, Whether an Excommunicated person be a member of the Church?
A49441THere is a second Controversie, whether the baptism of the Disciples before Christs Death, differed from Johns?
A49441The Question is, whether an Excommunicate man be a visible member of Christs visible Church?
A49441They answered, that they had not so much as heard that there was an Holy Ghost: and he replying, to what were ye then baptized?
A49441V. Whether the Power of the Keyes was given to them only?
A49441WHat a deal of doo Beza, and he, and Lapide the Jesuit have, to make an Office of this?
A49441Well then, what must it be?
A49441Well, but what saith the Apostle?
A49441Well, 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?
A49441What have I to do to Judge them which are without?
A49441What is essential to Constitute a Bishop?
A49441What the gift is here said to be in Timothy?
A49441What the laying on of the hands of the Elders was, and why used?
A49441What this Ordination is, and wherein lies the full breadth and bounds of the being thereof?
A49441What was the Excellency of it?
A49441What, have they in the preterperfect Tense?
A49441Where St. Paul finding Disciples at Ephesus, asked them, whether they had received the Holy Ghost?
A49441Whether Ordination gives all the Essentials to an Officer?
A49441Whether Philip were an Evangelist, and what an Evangelist?
A49441Whether administring the Communion was appropriated to the Apostles, in our Saviours life?
A49441Whether our Sacramental Baptism be the same with that before Christs death?
A49441Whether the power of preaching was given only to the Apostles?
A49441Whether there be such an Office as a Deacon proper to the Church?
A49441Whether these, and these only were Commissioned for Baptism?
A49441Which is an Answer to a Question, proposed in these late unhappy times, to the Author, What is a Minister?
A49441Who can tell what that is which he calls the outward gifting and sitting an Officer for his Call?
A49441Who the proper Minister of this Sacrament?
A49441and Mr. Cotton the Teacher, use Rhetorick to perswade?
A49441are they Ecclesiastical Orders?
A49441but doth reckon that which comes after this, Do all speak with tongues?
A49441doth never say, are all Helps, are all Governments?
A49441have they cast off the polluted raggs of their corrupted nature, and cloathed themselves with the glorious robe of Christs righteousness?
A49441have they renewed themselves according to righteousness and true holiness?
A49441not gifted men?
A49441or can he grant a Commission to act against Divine Laws?
A49441or can they shew that they did confirm, which are proper to Episcopal duties?
A49441or if it should, why not a Chancellor?
A49441or only order the pontifical affairs, which they might do; but not as Bishops?
A49441or whether Christ be the head to so many bodies?
A49441or whether all Christians are not Members of the same body?
A49441thus in English, What doth a Bishop except Ordination, which a Presbyter can not do?
A49441verse, that all members have not the same office; but can I force that to the parallel, when St. Paul doth not mention it?
A49441what orders they gave?
A46373( And if five Congregations may be called one Church, why not five hundred?)
A46373* Post Episcopum Diaconi Ordinationem subjicit: Quave?
A46373101. what is a Bishop but the first Priest?
A463732, Whether are we to expect any immediate and extraordinary Call to the Ministry in these daies?
A463733, Have you not cause to enquire whether you be not acted by the same Spirit?
A463739. and afterward at Antioch, Act, 13?
A46373Adde 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?
A46373After this he puts this Question, Anne cessante ordinaria vocatione?
A46373And although the Apostle out of the sense of the weightiness of it, cried out, Who is sufficient for these things?
A46373And are not you preparing your selves and others to help on this slaughter?
A46373And do the Apostles live for ever?
A46373And how shall they preach except they be sent?
A46373And if our Ministry be Antichristian, how is their conversion Christian?
A46373And if so, Then we ask further what is meant by the Elders?
A46373And if there be a power by Scripture in the people to Ordain Ministers, why was Titus sent to Creete to Ordain Elders?
A46373And may not any man that is gifted preach, though he be not Ordained?
A46373And may therefore all exercise regall jurisdiction amongst men?
A46373And 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?
A46373And who gave you this Authority?
A46373And who knowes not but circumstances may be wanting or corrupted, and yet the substance remain intire?
A46373Are Light and Stars necessary?
A46373Are Rulers, Shepherds, Stewards, Ambassadours, Husbandmen, Builders, Angels, Chariots and Horsmen necessary?
A46373Are all Prophets?
A46373Are all Prophets?
A46373Are all Teachers?
A46373Are not all made Kings?
A46373Are not all sinfull enough, naturally hating Teachers, and scorning to be reproved, being enemies to light and truth?
A46373But Ierom saith, It was toto orbe decretum, and how could this be but by Apostolical appointment?
A46373But from whence had he thi ● History?
A46373But 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?
A46373But how long was it that the Church of Christ was governed by the common Councel of Presbyters without a Bishop set over them?
A46373But how was Paul sure that he should live to write a second?
A46373But how will it be proved ▪ may some say, That these Chorepiscopi were onely Presbyters and not Bishops?
A46373But if a Master of a Family may instruct his own Family, why may he not preach in the publique Congregation?
A46373But if these were two of the seventy Elders, why doth Ioshua desire Moses to forbid them?
A46373But 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?
A46373But why did not they go unto the Tabernacle as the rest did?
A46373But why then do you your selves suffer men whom you call Probationers and Expectants for the Ministry, to preach without Ordination?
A46373But would you then have every man bound to keep constantly to the Minister under whom he lives?
A46373By what Authority do you these things?
A46373Christ makes answer by demanding another question, The Baptisme of Iohn, was it from heaven or of men?
A46373Could they answer as Christ?
A46373Do not most of your Arguments symbolize with the Romanists as if they were arrows shot out of their quiver?
A46373Do you cry out Antichrist, Antichrist, and yet crucifie Christ again in his members?
A46373Do you not hereby wound all the Reformed Churches, darkning the beauty, and obstructing the progresse of Reformation?
A46373Doth God do thus to those that run and are not sent?
A46373Doth not this opinion greatly endanger the souls of others?
A46373Enviest thou, for my sake?
A46373Every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head?
A46373For what are we the better that there is a Ministery by Divine institution, if our Ministry be of man, and not of God?
A46373For what juncture of r ● ● son would be in this?
A46373Had 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?
A46373Hast thou considered their work of faith, labour of love, patience of hope?
A46373Hath not the Lord greatly testified from Heaven against this Tenent in his spirituall Judgements upon many the great promoters of it?
A46373Have not they preached and pressed to the conscience the practical points of Christianity?
A46373How 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?
A46373How 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?
A46373How harsh and unpleasant is such an expression?
A46373How 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?
A46373How little hath been the Progresse of the Protestant Religion ever since?
A46373How may we distinguish between an immediate Call from God, and the imposture of men that say they are so called when they are not?
A46373How may we distinguish between an immediate Call from God; and the imposture of fanatick men that say they are so called, and are not?
A46373How shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard?
A46373How shall they hear without a preacher?
A46373How shall they preach except they be sent?
A46373I am against them saith the Lord: a fearfull commination; If God be against them who shall be with them?
A46373If a Minister made by a Bishop be a lawfull Minister, why then did you in your late covenant abjure Episcopacy with all its dependencies?
A46373If all were the eye, where were the hands and feet?
A46373If any demand, how shall we know when Christ spake to them as Apostles?
A46373If it alwaies remained firm, what need a new Ordination?
A46373If thou hast not, why wilt thou speak evil of things and persons thou knowst not?
A46373If your principles about an universall liberty be true, why are you so untrue to your own principles?
A46373In 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?
A46373In the same Epistle he saith,( a) Reverence the Bishop as ye ● do Christ, at the holy Apostles have commanded; But where is this commanded?
A46373In times of former trouble, How did Professors live sincerely, love fervently, pray, and fast, and mourn together?
A46373Is Sa ● ● necessary?
A46373Is any sick among you?
A46373Is it not meant the Church of Hierusalem, to which place they are said to come?
A46373Is it not the great work of Antichrist to destroy our Ministers, to smite the Shepherd that the Flock may be scattered?
A46373Is not this opinion the sad abuse of the great liberty now enjoyed?
A46373Is not this to offer manifest violence to the Scriptures?
A46373Is not this to partake of Antichrists sin?
A46373Man, who made me a Iudge or divider over you?
A46373May all be Magistrates?
A46373May not private men preach as well as they?
A46373Might not the people say, What need Paul leave Titus to do that which we can do our selves?
A46373Now is there not a reall distinction( as well as nominall) betwixt the Flock and Pastor, the Sheep and the Shepherd?
A46373Now then we demand, If the people have no Office- power belonging to them, how can they by Election make an Officer?
A46373Now to perform any authoritative act without authority, what is it other then to usurp authority?
A46373Now we demand, who were these Elders?
A46373Now why are all these qualifications required?
A46373Now with whom did Paul spend his three years?
A46373Of what Church?
A46373Or why may not a Justice of Peace send Warrants out of his own County?
A46373Or why might not Vzziah as well offer Incense in the Temple as pray in his own Family?
A46373Otherwise to what purpose are they inhibited?
A46373Secondly, All are made Priests unto God, but are all made Prophets?
A46373Shall Souldiers have no pay because when they are lawfully called forth they offer themselves freely to serve the publike?
A46373Shew us your warrant out of the Word?
A46373THat when Hierome saith, Quid facit Episcopus quod non facit Presbyter except ● Ordinatione?
A46373Tell us by what authority doest thou these things, or who gave thee this authority?
A46373The 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?
A46373The Apostle useth a four- fold gradation, How shall they call upon him in whom they have not believed?
A46373The Saints are to be united( and what tears are sufficient to lament our present Divisions?)
A46373These holy Ministers were the precious members of Christ, and will you make them as much as is in you the members of an harlot?
A46373They are called Teachers, and doth not the holy Ghost evidently distinguish betwixt them that do instruct and those that are instructed?
A46373This is confuted by the next words in the Text, How shall they preach except they be sent?
A46373This is in it self a truth of clearest evidence: What needs a peculiar Officer to be set apart to a common work?
A46373This promise can not be confined to the persons of Apostles; for where are the Prophets and Evangelists?
A46373To what purpose did Paul and Barnabas go from place to place to ordain Elders?
A46373To what purpose then is Imposition of hands used, if the extraordinary gifts of the holy Ghost be not conveighed thereby?
A46373Was Valentinus Gentilis therefore a friend and Martyr to God the Father, because he died as an enemy to God the Son?
A46373Was it not the peculiar priviledge of the Apostles, Evangelists,& c. to have their Commission extended to all Churches?
A46373We demand what is meant by the Church?
A46373We demand, by whom shall these be baptized?
A46373We demand, who was the Bishop of Ephesus that Paul sent for?
A46373What are we the better that there is a Ministry from Christ, if our Ministry be from Antichrist?
A46373What is meant by the word Office?
A46373What is meant by the word Presbytery?
A46373What part hath the Ruling Elder in Ordination?
A46373Where is the necessity laid upon them( as the Apostle speaks of himself) that they preach the Gospel?
A46373Whether a company of Believers associated together may ordain without Ministers?
A46373Whether are we to expect any immediate Call in these daies?
A46373Whether may one Preaching Presbyter lay on hands without the assistance of other Ministers?
A46373Whether the Call of the first Reformers of Religion from the Errours of Popery, was an immediate Call or no?
A46373Whether this Presbytery was a Presbytery of Bishops, or of single Presbyters?
A46373Whether this Presbytery were Congregational or Classical?
A46373Who art thou that givest thy mouth to evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit?
A46373Who planteth a Vineyard and doth not eat thereof?
A46373Who then is Paul, and who Apollo, but Ministers by whom ye believe?
A46373Why are your professed principles so uneven, and you so contradictory to your own principles?
A46373Why did they not spare their journey, and send to the people to make their own Ministers by Election?
A46373Why should you strengthen the hands of sinners?
A46373Why then do they not celebrate them?
A46373Why was Titus left in Crete to appoint Elders in every City?
A46373Will any sober Christian believe that these were members of the Roman Harlot?
A46373Would not all these injunctions about such an Office be superfluous, if such an Office were not by Divine Institution?
A46373and after many arguments, why doth the Apostle make that appeal?
A46373and also when he was an Apostle( as Calvin saith) long before this time?
A46373and hath not the Lord set a visible seal to their Ministry in the souls of thousands?
A46373and herein do not you gratifie the common Adversary, and strengthen their hands?
A46373and instead of upholding of Episcopacy is not this sufficient to render it odious and contemptible to all sober and Godly and Moderate Christians?
A46373and may not this rise from the spirit of delusion which worketh strongly in the Children of disobedience?
A46373and when to them as Christians?
A46373and why did Paul leave Titus in Crete to ordain Elders in every City?
A46373and why must he be so carefull to see them first fit, in case his laying on of hands would fit them?
A46373if they finde not acceptance with God, all that approbati ● n and applause which they finde from men, what will it profit?
A46373nisi quia Episcopi& Presbyteri unae Ordinatio est?
A46373or was there ever a second?
A46373was not that extraordinary?
A46373were these also Bishops of Hierusalem?
A46373when to them as Ministers?
A46373where our Saviour Christ refuseth to meddle with dividing Inheritances, because he was no Judge; Man, who made me a Iudge?
A46373who ● nows not it would not?
A46373why did the Apostles visit the Churches they had planted, to Ordain Elders in every Church?
A46373why then may they not preach?
A46373will 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?
A155271. how truly then may we affirme that there is a little and great, a weake and strong faith?
A1552716. how much more doe we owe this to our elder brother Christ Iesus, from whom we receiue the spirit of adoption?
A1552719. Who can tell his secret faults?
A1552722; 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?
A1552726, 27. and that he dwels in our hearts by faith?
A155273. 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?
A155276: and shall not calling, the roote of these graces, be discerned?
A155277. and of their sorrow, and many good fruits: but amongst all the effects of Repentance, the Apostle saith not, What teares hath it wrought?
A15527A reward due vnto good workes, and Why?
A15527Again, is there any thing in all that which you haue spoken, which is not remissible, and to be pardoned?
A15527Againe, Where is the Scribe?
A15527And a little after, Where is then the reioycing?
A15527And baing greatly 〈 ◊ 〉 vnto this assurance by our Repentance, how ought wee to apply our selues to the practise of it?
A15527And doth not Christ say of some of the Pharises, that they knew him& also whence he was?
A15527And 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?
A15527And doth not this imply application to be louing to faith?
A15527And how doth the Church in framing prayers, say, Our Father, but in making confession of faith, say, I beleeue?
A15527And how must not this exceedingly reioyce the beleeuing heart, to see it selfe blessed with Christ and all his merites, and that freely?
A15527And how then are they too blame which teach the doctrine of doubting, vnlesse we haue speciall reuelation from Heauen?
A15527And if this were not done by their faith, how then?
A15527And indeede how should he that made vs, be ignorant of vs?
A15527And tell me now I pray you, would not these graces be handled in that order as ye haue named them?
A15527And then, whether the desire of more wealth and a better estate be couetousnesse?
A15527And to speake truth, how can hee bee too much feared, that hath already done so much for vs?
A15527And touching the number of your sinnes, I easily beleeue they are wondrous many, and more then you thinke for, for who knoweth his offences?
A15527And what fouler sinne can the childe of God commit, then to kill the Lord of glory?
A15527And what great mercies of protections and prosperitie had he receiued before?
A15527And who wil not esteeme the loue and liking of one godly person, aboue the distast and mislike of an hundred worldlings?
A15527Aquila, 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?
A15527Aquila, But when wee feele our selues too weake to stand to it to the death, what then is to be done?
A15527Aquila, 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?
A15527Are not God and Satan flat opposites, and contraries?
A15527Beasts which out of narall instinct do loue their yong, how do they fare?
A15527But be there not other good vses wherunto good workes do serue, and for which the godly do cheerfully take them in hand?
A15527But haue you any further matters to say, friend Aquila, as touching this purpose?
A15527But 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?
A15527But tell me Sir, what Repeutance doe you meane?
A15527But what be the affections in sinners themselues that vsually hinder their Repentance?
A15527But what is it that worldly friends vse to alleadge in this case?
A15527But whereof shall we talke, what shall be the subiect of our speech?
A15527Certainly 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?
A15527Christ saith, That if the salt that seasoneth other things, haue lost his saltnosse, wherewith( saith he) shall it be seasoned?
A15527Did not Iacob break his vowes, for which God did temporally chastise him?
A15527Did not their faith apply that Sauiour& God particularly to themselues, who is the common Sauiour of all beleeuers?
A15527Doe ye iudge of the feare of God to be such a worke as is peculiar vnto the Elect& regenerate persons?
A15527Doe you esteeme your enemy as your neighbour, whom ye ought to loue?
A15527First, whether ye thinke any godly person free from all couetousnes?
A15527For God, who put it into their heart, still preseruing it, and being stronger then all that be against it, how can it vtterly faile?
A15527For how knowest thou O woman, whether thou shalt saue thy[ vnbeleeuing] Husband?
A15527For, who sinnes not after repentance, and after receiuing of many great blessings, and making many deepe promises of a better life?
A15527Good friend Aquila, wherefore serue these former encouragements, but to strengthen you against discouragements, when ye meete them?
A15527Good workes merit not, and why?
A15527Good workes please God, and why?
A15527Haue ye any more hinderances of Repentance yet behind vnnamed?
A15527How 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?
A15527How differeth this effectuall calling, from the common calling?
A15527How is this 〈 ◊ 〉 calling described in the word of God?
A15527I say, how did the Church there sinart for this her sloth?
A15527If God will saue, who can destroy?
A15527If one hurt but one member, he is bound to make mee amends, how much more if hee hurt my whole body?
A15527Is there any thing which Gods children may not, yea doe not fall into?
A15527It is excluded: By what Law?
A15527Lastly, whether a man may be couetous in his owne goods?
A15527Let me stop you a little in your course; what be these profits which loue brings, and the discommodities which follow the wants of it?
A15527Let me then heare you tel me what it is to loue God?
A15527May there be true Repentance without shedding of teares?
A15527May we not affirme the like of other of Gods faithfull children?
A15527May we not dissemble, or denie for a time the Doctrine of the Gospell, without danger of denying Christ himselfe?
A15527Might not Dauid and Salomon haue thought so, and others also, who haue done as they did?
A15527My first doubt is this; Whether a sinner may not truly repent, except he leaue his sins?
A15527NOw Neighbour Aquila, may I know of you whence doe you come?
A15527Nay, will not the tempter replie, I my selfe beleeue so much, and yet tremble?
A15527Now 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?
A15527Now that you haue shewed what an effectual calling is, tell vs by what meanes Christ worketh it?
A15527Now to the second linke, whether this measure of strong faith doth not admit sundry measures and differences?
A15527Now to your second question; what is required to a worke, that it may be held for a good worke?
A15527OF all the tryals of Gods Children, which doe you hold to be greatest, and fullest of difficulty to endure, and glory to ouercome?
A15527Oh what blessed things then are our chastisements, how patiently are they to be borne, how thankfully is God to be blessed for them?
A15527Or hee may still vse a sinne, and yet repent?
A15527Secondly, if God should spare life, what is the gaine of a transitory life, to the losse of eternall life?
A15527Sir, seeing you haue taken the 〈 ◊ 〉 out of my hand, will it please you to wield it now you haue it?
A15527So 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?
A15527Suffer mee here a little to stay you in your speech; what may the differance be betweene Sanctification and Repentance?
A15527Tell me friend Aquila, what you do thinke heereof?
A15527Tell me then what is the first sauing Grace, which the holy Spirit workes in our Calling?
A15527Tell me, haue you not been moued to doubt whether there be any God at all?
A15527The conuerted theefe, as little space as he had after his conuersion, yet how many wayes did his repentance declare it selfe?
A15527The fourth fruite ye called a standing in this grace, what is this I pray you?
A15527The occasions As in Dauid, hath God forgotten to be mercifull?
A15527The very Earth trembled at this, and shall not our hearts feare?
A15527There is therefore certainty in their hope, otherwise how could they pray vnto God, and call him Father?
A15527There must necessarily be a knowledge of things to be beleeued: For how can wee beleeue him of whom we haue not heard?
A15527Thus 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?
A15527Truth is so, I haue, and nothing so much; yea, and of the whole Scriptures, whether they came from God, or not?
A15527Vnto whom doth the high God looke, who dwelleth in the Heauens, but vnto him which hath a 〈 ◊ 〉 heart?
A15527We know not what to say, when we come before the persecutors?
A15527Well, shall we consent and agree to set vpon onr worke afresh?
A15527Well, 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?
A15527What a good worke is?
A15527What be the second and third conditions of a good worke?
A15527What discouragement ariseth from the quality of sinne?
A15527What feeling had Christ, when he cried out, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me: and my soule is heauy to death?
A15527What 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?
A15527What is putting on, but an application of a garment to the body for warmth and comelinesse?
A15527What is your 〈 ◊ 〉 in respect of God?
A15527What labour did not Christ endure, that he might expresse his loue to his Church?
A15527What may that be?
A15527What peace and quietnesse can there be, when there lacketh certainty?
A15527What pleasure tooke they in each others presence and wel- fare?
A15527What promises had Iob made to himselfe alone, to assure him by name of his owne saluation; or yet Dauid, or Moses, or infinite others?
A15527What shall I say more?
A15527What should I say further, that through the rodde of correction Gods children are led vnto an hearty and earnest confession of their sinnes?
A15527What thinke you of it?
A15527What was Iacobs family, or the Israelites to the rest of the world?
A15527What will let then, but that 〈 ◊ 〉 may be a true beleeuer, and be saued?
A15527What, 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?
A15527Where shall one finde a faithfull man?
A15527Wherin would you wish vs now to deal?
A15527Who be capeable and fit, who be vnfit and vncapeable therof for the most part; and as men may iudge of it?
A15527Who can hurt, whom hee will keepe?
A15527Who is he that doth not often goe ouer common infirmities?
A15527Will all the World serue to be a recompence of their soule?
A15527Will 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?
A15527Will ye that I try your memory, and put you to call to mind the principall and maine heads of that doctrine?
A15527YEa, Neighbour Aquila, are you here already?
A15527and how could it be truly written, that by faith we stand in grace?
A15527and how shall they heare except they preach?
A15527and how shall they preach, except they be sent?
A15527and if the eye, which is the light of the body, be darke, how great is that darknesse?
A15527and what it is that begets in vs the loue of God?
A15527and what paines ought we to beare, to expresse our loue towards him?
A15527may it not cause men thus to content themselues, seeing now they haue some measure of faith, which is sufficient to saue them?
A15527me thinkes we haue sayd much of Faith, shall wee passe to some other thing?
A15527or what vse of any other vertue, when it lacked the opposition& resistance of the contrary vice, to set it on worke?
A15527otherwise, how thinke ye good we should proceed?
A15527shall one brother offended be respected, and shall the whole fellowshippe and society of brethren be despised?
A15527the Sun was darkened, the Heauen also put on mourning weede, and shall not wee be troubled?
A15527what discontentment they shew when their yong are taken from them?
A15527what good workes shall we single out from the rest, therein to spend our time?
A15527where is the disputer,& c?
A15527wherefore wee stand bound to loue him?
A39266& therefore are you not asham''d to fight against your selves, that you may quarrel me?
A39266About what place, and in what Article, canst thou possibly pick out any such absurdity?
A39266Abundance dost say?
A39266Again, 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?
A39266And I pray, Sir, how did they use to take such a demonstration?
A39266And I pray, Sir, how many pounds of candle did it cost you, to tie de Corpore, and de Homine together?
A39266And I pray, Sir, may I be so bold, which side doe you intend to hold?
A39266And art thou now so very ● illy as to dream that any of this is against me?
A39266And did it not affect thee, Tim, and make thee sigh again?
A39266And did you, Sir, find there written Status naturae est status belli: as''t is said Calis was upon Queen Marie''s?
A39266And do you, Tim, approve of this illogical, unphilosophical, and unmathematical way of writing?
A39266And dost thou think, Tim, that I will not believe my own eyes and ears, before this nothing that thou sayest?
A39266And is it not a good saying?
A39266And is not appello a good word, you Timothy sause- box?
A39266And is not power a very good thing?
A39266And is not the knowledge of the five Senses, and the rest that you mention very useful?
A39266And is this all that you have now to say?
A39266And lastly if( for diversion and recreation of mind) to discourse; is not here visibly at the bottom either advantage or vain glory?
A39266And may Dick or any other of them, in right and reason, get it all, if they can?
A39266And now what aile you with this definition?
A39266And to doe all this where you were so very much oblig''d, and so very civilly used?
A39266And what do I care if Plato calls memory the Mother of the Maids?
A39266And what fault can you find with all this?
A39266And what if most Nations have Guards, and Castles, and be upon defence?
A39266And why, is it not proper to put in Opticks into a Treatise de Homine?
A39266And why?
A39266And why?
A39266And wilt thou be so childish after all these instructions, as not to believe that interest is, and ought to be the first principle?
A39266And wilt thou not flinch, but be ingenuous, and suffer me to suppose freely?
A39266But I pray, Sir, how come you to think that I was puffed up?
A39266But I prethee, Tim, how came we to ramble thus from the state of war?
A39266But are you very, very certain that they are not?
A39266But for all that, I pray may not I make bold to say, that children desire society in your sence?
A39266But for all that, will you venture to say that these four strangers are actually a body politick?
A39266But for all you are so brisk, Tim: How do you certainly know that they will not fall to breaking of heads and leggs?
A39266But how comes in about that you suppose these people to speak?
A39266But how shall poor Roger make shift to live?
A39266But is it not a good and reasonable thing in it self to perform Contracts, in the very state of nature?
A39266But it is not very bad husbandry to make an hundred steps for that, which might have been done as well with forty?
A39266But to go on, Sir, I pray why are you so very mistrustfull?
A39266But what becomes of Tumbler and Towser all this while?
A39266But where''s the state of war all this while?
A39266But why should I goe about t ● pour forth such Historicall rarities into an empty hogs- head?
A39266But why so many instances?
A39266But, my dear, my duck, my sweet, my honey: I prithee, why so very fierce and furious?
A39266By what means and upon what design didst thou acquire a right and propriety in them, and dominion over them?
A39266Could not he have locked up himself close in his Study, and there have enlightned and clarified his own understanding?
A39266Did thy feet bud, and bring forth shoes?
A39266Did you not promise me to be modest, and 〈 ◊ 〉 to prate?
A39266Did you stand behind a tree and hear the parley?
A39266Do you hear me, Sir?
A39266Do you think they would do half so much good, and ● e half so much respected, if they were considerable S ● hollars?
A39266Doe not I recommend the same justice, mercy, equity,& c. that are recommended in the Bible?
A39266For suppose, Tim, they meet for traffique, is it not plain that every man minds his business, and endeavours to dispatch what he design''d?
A39266For what can be more intelligible than just and unjust?
A39266For, Was not Christ himself in a low condition?
A39266Have I read all the Sermons that were ever Printed since —?
A39266Here, where art thou( as they call thee) Conscience?
A39266Hold: do you know what you are going to say?
A39266How camest thou by those shoes?
A39266How is it?
A39266How many miles would I ride to see such villa ● y chastised?
A39266How so, do you say?
A39266How so?
A39266How?
A39266I 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?
A39266I pray, Sir, what doe you mean by those words, when you say that man is not a sociable creature?
A39266I prethee, Tim, What''s the difference between a Bustard and a Chevin?
A39266I 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?
A39266I prethee, Tim, what art thou doing of?
A39266I prethee, Tim, what figure is this objection in?
A39266I prethee, Tim, what was the name of this Philosopher?
A39266I prethee, Tim, which will certainly beat, the French or Dutch?
A39266I prethee, Tim, with how much less?
A39266I 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?
A39266If I were at leasure, I could shew you an hundred several places: What think you, Philautus, of the Scriptures being the word of God?
A39266If of himself; what need was there of its being printed?
A39266If to discharge some offi ● ●, is it not to carry on a kind of a market friendship, which has more of jealousie than true love?
A39266In your opinion?
A39266Is it a thing altogether indifferent, till the Magistrate has given his opinion in the case?
A39266Is it not a very reasonable thing, though there were never a Magistrate in the whole World?
A39266Is it not great pity, that you were not matched to that same ● see ● ing Afri ● ● you speak of?
A39266Is not Magistracy as well 〈 ◊ 〉 Ministery an Ordinance of God?
A39266Is not the true notion and perfect Idaea of a cause very necessary?
A39266Is nothing true that I have said in my several Books?
A39266Is this all that I say?
A39266Like it?
A39266Live?
A39266Must I go on further to convince thee?
A39266Must they needs upon first sight set up their tayls, and bristles, and fall a sna ● ling, and swearing, and tearing one anothers throat ● out?
A39266No matter for that: come, shall we take a turn or two in the Walks?
A39266Now indeed you have mended the business much: what, is there ever an Act of Parliament against your beating me particularly?
A39266Now what dost thou infer from this, Tim?
A39266Now 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?
A39266Now, Sir, doe you think that I am such a fool and owle, as to reply to any such thing as this?
A39266Now, would it not make any one in the World raving mad, to hea ● such stuff as yours boasted of for sence?
A39266Or had you word sent you by the Pinaean packet boat?
A39266Out 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?
A39266Populus aliquando vult decipi; ● t si aliquando cur non nunc?
A39266Say you so?
A39266Say you so?
A39266Shall we give them a second view, and another loose?
A39266So far is true: is it not?
A39266Suffer you, Sir?
A39266Surely, Tim, thou beginnest to be mad: is it not very just, and very punctual?
A39266The Magistrate, thou sayst, did not make them; I wonder who did, whence they came, and who brought them?
A39266The 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?
A39266Upon better reason, dost thou say?
A39266WELL met Philautus, how does your best self this morning: What, stout and hearty?
A39266Was not his Iury of life and death most of them poor?
A39266Well: imagine then that they doe not fight: may not Roger, when they come to treat, demand more than his share?
A39266What an uproar and noise thou makest?
A39266What are you resolved then that they must needs have a brush at boxes before they set on the old hen and bacon?
A39266What are you there abouts?
A39266What dost mean, round about the earth?
A39266What dost think all people in the world are amalepert as thy self ●, and talk again, when there is nothing to be said?
A39266What dost think that I studied fourty or fifty years; only to find out and maintain a jest?
A39266What has Nature given to Dick; suppose, a right to the whole Kingdom: with all the profits, priviledges, perquisites, and appurtenances?
A39266What is it that thou would''st have in a Logick?
A39266What law now has he for his money?
A39266What mean you Gentlemen to approve of that in your discourses, which your actions perfectly disavow?
A39266What need is there of any more?
A39266What need you fear my giving back?
A39266What purchase dost thou intend to make?
A39266What should be the business then?
A39266What then, art thou resolved not to stir?
A39266What then, will you maintain that I have discovered nothing at all?
A39266What think you of drunkenness, Philautus?
A39266What think you of faithfulness, i. e. of keeping your promise, or standing to your bargain?
A39266What think you, Philautus, of a man''s hanging himself?
A39266What time didst thou go to bed last night, Tim?
A39266What wonders and rarities does he afford upon such a common subject?
A39266What wouldest thou expect in a discourse of Government, a trap to catch Sun- beams, or a purse- net for the Moon?
A39266What, Sir, doe you take me for a fool?
A39266What, Tim, art thou so utterly barren, that thou hast neither Divinity, Poetry, nor Grammar within thee?
A39266What, Tim, would''st thou have me goe to School again?
A39266What, because may and can are of the same Mode and Tense, or that possum is Latin for them both?
A39266What, can that be intrinsecally and in reason good or bad, that is made so by Constitution or Canon?
A39266What, doe you find fault to see all kind of knowledge lie fairely before your eyes?
A39266What, dost talk of suppling of me, Tim?
A39266What, shall a child be able to defend that which lay hid for so many Ages, and took me such paines to discover?
A39266What, would you have Arts and Sciences tumbled down together, like coals into a Cellat?
A39266What, would you have a thing good, before there be any such thing at all?
A39266What, 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?
A39266What?
A39266What?
A39266Where and in what company did I ever say, that Roger had a right but to a fourth part?
A39266Which of them ever said that any man was actually born a Constable or silk weaver?
A39266Which side?
A39266Who, 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?
A39266Why do you only say seem,& c?
A39266Why doe you laugh, Tim?
A39266Why doe you talk thus?
A39266Why so Tim?
A39266Why so?
A39266Why so?
A39266Why then do you snear, as if you dislik''d my Logick?
A39266Why, Sir, do you like what I now said?
A39266Why, does it?
A39266Why, what do I say there?
A39266Why, what''s the matter now?
A39266Why, who did ever hold self- interest to be the first principle of Nature and Government?
A39266Why, who does not?
A39266Why: doe not all count that well which you count well: or are you a man by your self?
A39266Why?
A39266Why?
A39266Why?
A39266With whom?
A39266Would 〈 … 〉 serve you but just your Patrons?
A39266Yes: 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?
A39266and 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?
A39266and did not the foreman of the Iury St. Peter say, silver and gold have I none?
A39266and do I exactly remember every Sentence that is in them?
A39266and 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?
A39266and does not this make thee fret and fume, and dislike all that I have written?
A39266and dost thou think that thou canst ever find out any other reason to make the four men of Pines compound, besides fear?
A39266and 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?
A39266and if there be, where''s the Constable, to put it in execution?
A39266and is not this, that I have laid down, full, exact, and compleat?
A39266and was there never yet one in the world, that thought it lawful to alter his Copy?
A39266and wert thou not converted thereby, and fully convinced that the State of Nature was a state of war?
A39266and what did thy use to say again?
A39266because they have not as yet discoursed, made overtures, covenanted?
A39266did ever any of the Philosophers say so before?
A39266did you goe into the bowels and heart blood of Nature to bring up nothing else but this?
A39266doe not I know that a Gentleman is one that keeps a man to quarrel, fight, beat and abuse?
A39266does this become you?
A39266dost think that the happiness and security of all the Kingdoms of the Earth depend upon a jest?
A39266have you bespoak or bought up all the R. Ls in the Nation, that you will not let a man have one?
A39266have you discoursed me into a Bear?
A39266how easie a matter is it for old folks to dote and slaver, and for young ones to be deceived, and lick up the spittle?
A39266is it not all new?
A39266is it that you are descended of some very timorous family; or was your mother buried alive, with two sucking children?
A39266is there any intrinsecal Natural evil in it?
A39266is this the fruits of Mathematicks, long observation, fundamental casting about, and bottoming of things?
A39266is this the principle that you were so many years finding out?
A39266may not I, for all that, have another man that did insist upon it, three quarters of a good statutable English hour together?
A39266not a word further: thou must begin all again: the tenth of March, Tim?
A39266now 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?
A39266or 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?
A39266there''s nothing left out, is there?
A39266was there never two men in England preached upon the same Text?
A39266what a breed of Reasoners would the World have had?
A39266what can a man spend his time better than to suspect, take heed, be watchfull and afraid?
A39266what dost think, Tim, that I have nothing else to doe, but to hear thee tattle over a company of foppish Similitudes?
A39266what is it that you would have had meant?
A39266what, a man in the Moon, Will with the wisp, Jack with the Lantern?
A39266what?
A39266what?
A39266which sinkes the first Ship, and where will the wind be upon the fifteenth of May?
A39266who 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?
A35787A ● quo; Roma, quaerenda sunt divina Consilia, nisi ab illis, quibus mysteriorum Dei dispensatio credita est?
A35787And 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?
A35787And 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?
A35787And how many such are alledged every day, in our Disputations?
A35787And if he were in an Error in this Particular, why must he Necessarily be in the Right in the other?
A35787And if so, what Reason have they to urge it for such, against the Protestants?
A35787And 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?
A35787And if they were not known to be such then, how can any body imagine, that they should at length come to be such now?
A35787And if we can have no assurance hereof, how can we then account them of any force at all, either for or against us?
A35787And 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?
A35787And then secondly, How, and in what Cases the Writings of the Fathers may be useful unto us?
A35787And what may not the Hereticks and Schismaticks have been able to do?
A35787And whence is it, that we find in Antiquity no mention at all of many things, which are now in great request amongst us?
A35787And 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?
A35787Are not those Ancient Points of Religion of as great Importance, as these Latter?
A35787Besides, who knows, and can truly inform us, what Date their Writings bear?
A35787But 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?
A35787But who can assure us that they have not forgotten any thing they should have noted?
A35787But yet, who sees not the reason of it?
A35787But, in case you had not exact skill in the Language, how should you be able to judge of this Interpretation?
A35787Commentarii quid operis habent?
A35787Did they therefore think, that the ● e Books were of sufficient Authority to ground an Article of Faith upon?
A35787Ergò, inquies,& nos post Resurrectionem comesuri sumus?
A35787Fathers, which met here together, touching this Point; which is the most important one, of all those that are at this day controverted betwixt us?
A35787For how is it otherwise possible, that we should be able to judg, whether they have taught Holily, and Wisely?
A35787For otherwise, why should Pope n Leo give this very thing, as a mark to distinguish the Manichees from the Catholicks?
A35787For what a senseless thing is it, to leave them in, where they hurt most; and to raze them out, where they do little hurt?
A35787For where is the Province, or the City, or the Doctor, that hath not boastingly cried up his own Opinions, and Observations, as Apostolical?
A35787For who doth not now see, that this kind of proof hath as much or more difficulty in it, than the Question it self?
A35787For, I beseech you, what strange Philosophy would it be, that should either be ignorant of, or should deny these Principles?
A35787For, how is it possible that we should be able to judge, when they speak as they thought, and when not?
A35787For, 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?
A35787For, 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?
A35787For, who knows not what pains it will cost a Man to attain to a perfect knowledge of these two Tongues?
A35787Had he not better to have forborn coming at all?
A35787He that could be ignorant what the Nature of Christ''s Body was, must he Necessarily have a Right Judgment touching the Eucharist?
A35787How came it about, that it should be proposed only by a young fellow, who was a Schismatick too?
A35787How came it to pass, that they were so ignorant of the Weapons, wherewith the Enemies of the Church were to be encountred?
A35787How 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?
A35787How comes it to pass, that seeing thou hast staid behind, thou dost not Communicate of this Table?
A35787How 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?
A35787How could they possibly have delivered so many things contrary either to Reason, or to the Scriptures, or to the Fathers?
A35787How could they possibly have seen that; which lay as yet concealed?
A35787How could they possibly measure their Belief by such a Rule, as was not yet visible to the World?
A35787How happened it, that they so either forgot, or else mistook themselves, as they have sometimes done?
A35787How many Authors are there who have changed their Opinions, and yet have not retracted what they had formerly written?
A35787How shall I know( will he reply upon you again) whether this was his private Opinion onely, or not?
A35787How small is the number of those in the Church, who had the Ability, or at least the 〈 ◊ 〉 to write?
A35787How then can we confide in them, unless we examine their Opinions by their Reasons?
A35787Huic; Cui?
A35787If Rome doth indeed bear so great respect to the Fathers, as they would make us believe, why hath it not then retained this Custom?
A35787If 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?
A35787If any Man should now preach this Doctrine to the Romanists, would they not laugh at him, as a Ridiculous Fellow?
A35787If this Argument of theirs be of any force at all, who sees not that it clearly proves that which we maintain in this particular?
A35787Is it more Necessary to Salvation, to know Him Sacrificed upon the Altar, than Really Suffering upon the Cross?
A35787Is not this all one, as if he in plam terms ranked second Marriages among unclean and polluted things?
A35787Is there less danger in being ignorant touching the Nature of God, than touching the Authority of the Pope?
A35787May not this be called rather Sporting with, than Expounding of the Scriptures?
A35787Miraris si contra te fratrum scandala concitentur; cum i d nescire te jures, quod Christi Ecclesiae se scire fatentut?
A35787Now I would very fain have any one inform me, how it is possible for us to know this?
A35787Now hearing him speak thus, who would not believe this to be a true Story?
A35787Now how doth this agree with that large Discourse, which he hath made in another place, to a quite contrary sense?
A35787Now 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?
A35787Now what can be said more expresly against Transubstantiation?
A35787Num diversae interpretationis,& contrariorum inter se sensuum tenebitur reus, qui in uno opere quod edisserit, expositiones posuerit plurimorum?
A35787Omne deinceps humanum genus quibus animarum censetur exordiis?
A35787Or if thou leavest them in the one, why dost thou blot them out in the other?
A35787Or, is it not possible that they may have held them, though they did not write in defence of the same?
A35787Or, may they not perhaps have written also in de ● ence of them, and their Books have been since lost?
A35787Or, why should they have used more in those Points which are at this day controverted amongst us?
A35787Qu ● s dabit te frater fratrem m ● hi, lactantem ubera matris meae?
A35787Quam stolidi autem Judaei qui interrogant, Hic peccavit, an Parentes?
A35787Quis enim tam hebes,& sic in scribendo rudis est, ut idem laudet& damnet?
A35787Quis negabit Deum corpus esse, etsi Spiritus est?
A35787Quis omissa causa in superslua criminum objectione vers ● tus est?
A35787Quorsum( inquies) haec tam longo repetita principio?
A35787Quòd si non sunt idem, quomodo verum Corpus Christi dicitur,& verus sanguis?
A35787Rather 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?
A35787Sentisne quid taceam, quod aestu ● nti pectori verba non commodem?
A35787Si in judicii severitatem capax illa Dei Virgo ventura est, desiderare quis audebit à Deo judicari?
A35787Thou seest me in a combat, and in peril of my life; and dost thou come with thy grave Instructions, like some Reverend Schoolmaster?
A35787Tu me stantem in p ● aelio,& de vita per ● clitan ● em, studiosus magister doceas?
A35787Ub; religio?
A35787What Text of Scripture, or what Reason hath this Man alledged, to prove the Truth of what he hath proposed?
A35787What can the meaning be of so strange a way of proceeding in so Wise Men?
A35787What can you say to this?
A35787What could have been written more Coldly, or more disagreeing with the Truth and Simplicity of the Gospel?
A35787What could he have said more expresly, in confirmation of our Assertion before laid down?
A35787What have these our so great Adorers of Antiquity now done with these Ceremonies?
A35787What is become of the rigid and severe Rules of those Ancient Times?
A35787What is become of those Ancient Laws?
A35787What( saith he) is the business of a Commentary?
A35787Where are those Customs then used in the Ordination of the Clergy?
A35787Where are those Eight, those Ten, those Twenty years of Penance, which they sometimes imposed upon Offenders?
A35787Where are those so mysterious Ceremonies in Baptism, and in the Administration of the Eucharist?
A35787Where is the Ancient Discipline?
A35787Where is the Milk, or the Honey, or the Eucharist, which the Ancient Fathers were wo nt to administer to all, immediately after Baptism?
A35787Where is the Reverence which is due from you to your Ancestors?
A35787Where shall we find a M that after this their Failing, can have the courage to adventure upon so Difficult, and so Intricate an undertaking?
A35787Whereas in the second kind?
A35787Whether the Bread which they shew us, be to deceive, or to feed us?
A35787Whether the Problems they propose be solid, or slippery ones?
A35787Whether their Positions be Dogmatical, or Oeconomical?
A35787Whether they mean really what they say, or whether they make but a flourish only?
A35787Whether they were gathered green, or were suffered to ripen upon the Tree?
A35787Whether they were the Fruits of their Spring, or of their Summer, or of their Autumn?
A35787Whether they were their own particular Opinions onely, or the publick Sense of their Age?
A35787Who can assure us,( may the Protestants further add) that the Articles which we reject, are not of this kind?
A35787Who can promise himself success there, where so Great a Council hath failed?
A35787Who 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?
A35787Who ever heard a Judge excuse himself, by reason of the shortness of the Time?
A35787Who hath not observed the strange Hyperboles of S. Chysostome, S. Hilary, S. Ambrose, and the like?
A35787Who is there now that will pass his word for him, that he himself was one of this number?
A35787Who knoweth not that a Dwarf, mounted upon a Giants shoulders, looketh higher, and seeth further, than the Giant himself?
A35787Who knows now, what these Bishops were; and whether they deserved any such usage at S. Hieromes hands, or no?
A35787Who sees not, that in this place he would have said, the Phoenix?
A35787Who sees not, that these Matters are of equal Importance?
A35787Who shall assure us, that he was not either an Heretick himself, or at least a Favourer of Hereticks?
A35787Who shall regulate us, amidst such Contradictions as these?
A35787Who will ever be perswaded to believe, that they held them as Necessary to Salvation?
A35787Who will warrant us, that all Christendom in his time embraced all his opinions, and had no other of their own?
A35787Who would be able to perform this, if he should undertake it?
A35787Who would believe but that the Breviaries and Missals should have escaped their Razour?
A35787Who would believe now, but that this Declaration of the Canon of the Scriptures was at that time received by all Christian Churches?
A35787Why may not the same thing have hapned to them in the one, that hath so manifestly befallen them in the other?
A35787Why should we not rather honestly confess, that their Opinions were also different, as well as their words?
A35787Why 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?
A35787Would not any man, that hears these words, believe these three Fathers to have been Iconoclasts?
A35787acknowledge all of them the same Gospels?
A35787aedificata destruat,& destructa aedificet?
A35787and how many hath the False Dealings of Men either wholly suppressed, or else corrupted, and altered?
A35787and 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?
A35787and that inequality of Pulse and Breath, that we may observe in one and the same Author, in a quarter of an Hours reading?
A35787and that such Testimonies are as Obscure, as the Controverted Opinions themselves?
A35787and what Design, but of Victory only?
A35787and which hath not used his utmost endeavour to gain them the Repute of being Vniversal?
A35787and who would not be ready to understand this Narration in the literal sense?
A35787as likewise touching the Power of the Prelates, to procure them the greater respect and obedience from their People?
A35787find therein all of them Great and High Mysteries?
A35787hope all of them for one and the same Immortality?
A35787or touching the State of the Faithful in the Resurrection, than touching the Punishment of Souls in Purgatory?
A35787preach one and the same Sanctification?
A35787quae verba non sensuum?
A35787qui sensus non victorix?
A35787si in nullo exorbitaverunt?
A35787that amidst so great diversity in Worship, they all adore one and the same Christ?
A35787the Cup of His Passion, than the Cup of His Communion?
A35787the Real Qualities of the Body of Christ, than the Nature of the Eucharist?
A35787ubi veneratio majoribus debita à vobis?
A35787what Parts are necessarily required in this case?
A35787what word in them but hath its Design?
A35787wouldst 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. And by what arguments shall it be prooued that law of tithes to haue beene by God at any time abrogated?
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?
A2110713. taking an argument a simili, from them that ministred in the temple about holy things, and waited at the altar, how dooth he conclude?
A211072 Further, looke vpon the vse whereunto the tithes are assigned by God and man: what is it but the maintainance of the minister?
A211074 But where is any such Tithe payd?
A211074. or 5. times so many parts or more to himselfe for his charges?
A211074?
A211077. reasoneth thus: Quis militat propriis stipendiis?
A211078. doth in the person of God paraphrastically explane it thus?
A211078. where againe thus the Lord expostu ● ateth with his people: Will a man spoile his Gods?
A211078: where God speaketh thus: Will a man spoyle his Gods?
A211079. Who gooes a warfare at anie time of his owne cost?
A21107A heathen man being asked what good hee had gotten by his Philosophie?
A21107Againe, what is this but to enuy at another mans prosperitie?
A21107All confesse that such allowance is now incompetent: but who are they that amend it?
A21107And a little after in the same place, in the person of God, he speaketh thus: what?
A21107And 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?
A21107And hath our age alone the lucke, to espye Nodum in Scirpo, an ouersight that had escaped the eyes of God and men before?
A21107And how hath the minister a part of all a mans goods?
A21107And in the same place reproouing the people of his time for not paying tithes, hee hath these words, Quomodo abundat Iusti ● ● a nostra?
A21107And 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?
A21107And indeed what other is the Church but a Diuinitie- schoole, the minister a Lecturer, and the hearers schollers?
A21107And 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?
A21107And is pouertie the true cause of this?
A21107And saith our Apostle, what hast thou O man what euer thou bee, and whatsoeuer thou haue, which thou hast not receiued?
A21107And shall not the fault bee onely ours, if wee be left without teaching, without instruction, and consequentlie without saluation?
A21107And 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?
A21107And were it not lamentable( what if I sayd intollerable?)
A21107And what Ministers of our Church doe they more fauour, then such as bee ignorant and simple?
A21107And what charge, what burthen is it to the Citizens of London, to pay as they do by the house?
A21107And what doth he in this case but take wages of one, to do ● another seruice?
A21107And what is this but as that, a kinde of Impropriating?
A21107And what is this, but willfully to be blinde?
A21107And what kind of tithes were they?
A21107And what reason is it that a minister should not expect for, and receiue the like in his profession?
A21107And what reason will excuse him that with- holdes from the needy his necessarie Liuing, least happely hee abuse it to surfetting and drunkenn ● s?
A21107And what remedie?
A21107And what saith the Lord?
A21107And what?
A21107And who can shew vs, that the godly are freed from that dutie since the law, which they owed to God before?
A21107And why to Leui& his sonnes?
A21107And why?
A21107And why?
A21107And why?
A21107Are not their labours and studies as deare vnto them?
A21107Are they not Pastours in the same Church, and members of the same kingdome?
A21107Are they not members of the same Church and kingdome,& their soules redeemed with the same price?
A21107As a priuate person in paying tithes, what other thing did he, but what was euery godly mans dutie to doo?
A21107Bee there not many that thinke twenty pounds a yeare enoughe?
A21107But can not we be thankfull to God, though we offer vnto him none of our goods?
A21107But hath not common reason preuailed there against so farre, that now a dayes there is scarce any that wil either accept or offer it?
A21107But 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?
A21107But say I these things according vnto man?
A21107But say I, who is in fault for this?
A21107But to what vse?
A21107But what are these to vs?
A21107But what is all this to vs, that be ministers of the Gospell?
A21107But what may wee thinke of it?
A21107But who shall bee iudge in such a case, what is too- much, or or what but enough?
A21107But 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?
A21107But ye say Where in haue we spoyled thee?
A21107But yee said wherein haue we spoyled thee?
A21107But, what kinde of Tithe?
A21107Come home into thine owne house, will thy seruant trust to thy curtesy for his seruice?
A21107Doe they complaine thereof?
A21107Doe they finde it a beggering& vndooing vnto them?
A21107Doo you thinke within a few yeares, there would bee found halfe the number that now is?
A21107Doth knowledge and vnderstanding dwell onely with vs?
A21107For are not our goods his, aswell as our daies, and as our selues?
A21107For by what arguments may it euer bee prooued, that that law of Tithes was euer by God abrogated?
A21107For how could it be, that all people, euen those that knew not the true God, yet should herein consent with the true worshippers?
A21107For is there any law that saith: None shall pay Tithes but such as haue lands, cattell,& c?
A21107For our present daies, what doo men account now to be competent?
A21107For the question is not, what may( in mens sparing conceits) suffice such or such a man?
A21107For what good will there not come thereof?
A21107For what is this but to liue by the sweat of other mens browes?
A21107For what shall they do, if by reason of any impotencie befalling them, they neede a Coadiutour?
A21107For who can discharge a man from obedience to God?
A21107For who can worke& labour that hath not food cōuenient to strengthen his body?
A21107For who is there but will allow his horse prouander, that hee may trauell well?
A21107For who is, or wil be content to bee rated to any payment more then the rest of his neighbours of like state and worth?
A21107For who should make a iust lawe, if not Iustice it selfe?
A21107For, needes not his study to be greater?
A21107Goe into all Courts of iudgement, haue not euery one their knowne and seuerall fees?
A21107Goe into the City, haue not all officers their certaine salaries?
A21107Goe into the country, hath not euery labourer his ordinary wages?
A21107Goe out into the field, hath not euery Captaine, Lieutenant, Sergeant, Soldiour,& c. his knowen pay?
A21107Haue they other meanes equiualent?
A21107He receiueth of vs the tithes and offerings as his Sacrū vectigal his sacred tribute, his holy rent: and what doth hee therewith?
A21107He vouchsafeth to demaund the first fruites& tenthes of that thou hast from him, and doest thou couetously deny him?
A21107Herevpon I aske first, whether in the person of this one Pharise, bee not expressed vnto vs the actions of them all?
A21107How did the Israelites maintaine their priests and Leuits?
A21107How right?
A21107How to our profit?
A21107I meane, if in the one place the minister hath all the prediall tithes kept from him, and in th''other all the personall?
A21107I 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?
A21107If Tithes bee not it, I aske first whether it bee more or lesse then Tithes?
A21107If any therefore do make a question, why Tithes are payd?
A21107If any therefore doe make a question, why tithes are to be paid?
A21107If they can no more be without a Minister then the other?
A21107If they will aunswere more; is there any hope that disclaiming Tithes, in steed thereof a greater& richer portion may bee obteined?
A21107If townesmen haue as great neede of teaching as they in the countrey or rather more?
A21107If wee goe this way to worke, what good comes there, of this course?
A21107In all meetings& assemblies, hath he not his place before the schole- maister?
A21107In all reason and equitie, in all reputation& account, is not the minister of the Church, before the maister of the schoole?
A21107In what sorte or measure?
A21107Is it a small matter I pray thee that thy vinepresse bee blessed?
A21107Is it likely their School- maisters were maintained in that liberall maner?
A21107Is it not so, That the meanest benefice in the land almost( that is whole) is better in reuenues then the best schoole?
A21107Is it not their Vltimum Refugium?
A21107Is not housekeeping, is not diet and apparell, more chargeable vnto him?
A21107Is this condigne reward for such studies& expenses?
A21107It 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?
A21107Iudge then, what reason or conscience is it, to keep backe the ministers maintenance which is his wages?
A21107Knowest thou that whatsoeuer thou hast is Gods?
A21107Let all things bee considered well and weighed in equall ballance, and what hardnes, what extremitie, is there in this?
A21107Let it bee graunted that then it was so ▪ Dooth it follow it must bee so now?
A21107Nay rather hath hee not need of much more?
A21107Nay rather, doo not many of them of their owne liberalitie and loue to the Worde, augment and enlarge it?
A21107Now if the matter be well lookt into, what difference is there twixt the one and the other?
A21107O homines stulti,& c. O men vnwise, what hurte doth God commaunde,( in demaunding the tenth) that hee should not deserue to bee hearde?
A21107OF by custome and composition for euery thing hee doth possesse, why these shall not pay of anie one thing almost the tenth?
A21107Or that vnto our forefathers& other auncient Christians, That they liued vnder lawes lawlesly?
A21107Or, that God which accepted Tithes, as his sacred Right then, hath reiected it now?
A21107Quid auid ● supputas?
A21107Secondly, I demaund who shall( if the word of God doo not) determine what is competent?
A21107See now good Reader, This is that Durus Sermo, that hard saying, that vnreasonable motion, whereof who can abide the hearing?
A21107Shal not the Iudge of all the world doe right?
A21107Shall the Clergie?
A21107Shall the Laitie?
A21107Shall they longer then they be able personallie to performe their duties, be behoulding to the almes- house?
A21107Si tardius dare peccatū est, quanto peius est non dedi ● ● e?
A21107Specially what profiteth it a man, if hee win the whole world and lose his owne soule?
A21107That such men, graduates, Preachers,& c. should be faine to serue,( as oft they doo) like those hedge priests, for x. pounds a yeare?
A21107Therefore why should we doe otherwise then others doe?
A21107They that had lands& goods sold them, and laid downe the price at the Apostles feet: and so distribution was made; by whom?
A21107To whom?
A21107Tradesmen and artificers to be accountable for tithes?
A21107Were ministers tyed to mens good wills here?
A21107What dooth the minister teach thee?
A21107What is it to pay faithfully?
A21107What is that to tradesmen, artificers and other like, which liue by their imployments, by their labour and industry?
A21107What is then to bee expected, but that they will fauour themselues enough, and too much?
A21107What it is to pay faithfully?
A21107What ought to bee his reward?
A21107What, from beastes to men?
A21107What?
A21107What?
A21107What?
A21107What?
A21107Where are able teachers at this day most wanting?
A21107Where doe such commōly desire to nestle themselues, but in some obscure and blind places where is little or no preaching?
A21107Whereupon dost thou greedily reckon?
A21107Who can shew vs any other?
A21107Who hath made them iudges aboue others what is a sufficiēt liuing for the minister?
A21107Who knowes not, That by Gods appointment, besides diuers other things that fell to their share, they had the tenth of all things?
A21107Why do you transgresse the Commandement of God by your tradition, or Custome?
A21107Why hath Sathan filled thine heart, that thou shouldest lie vnto the holy Ghost?
A21107Why haue yee agreed together to tempt the spirit of the Lord?
A21107Why then is it not reason they yeelde thereunto the due and appointed maintenance as well as they?
A21107Why then should any sort of people denie or withhold it?
A21107Why then?
A21107Wilt thou lay out the tenth?
A21107Yee haue spoiled me, saith the Lord: wherein?
A21107You haue offered that which was torne and the lame and the sicke: should I accept this at your hands ● aith the Lord?
A21107a full Tenth of all hee receiues, as dooth the husbandman of all that which to him increaseth?
A21107a 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?
A21107and Christianly& thankefully with God?
A21107and as it were for the nonce casting a mist before their owne eies, to suffer themselues to bee deceiued?
A21107and had another tenth for euery child they taught?
A21107and had like part as any other had?
A21107and hee bee inforced to that kinde of dealing, which all others disclaime and vtterly refuse?
A21107and how dangerous and hurtfull for them that they be not?
A21107and in the latter particularly of such as arise by tillage?
A21107and in this point, of the whole nation?
A21107and see that they haue cause to curse the time, that euer such a course was taken betwixt them and their ministers?
A21107and 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?
A21107and thereby as well the one as the other is a fit receptacle for only the worst and vnworthiest Pastour?
A21107and where bee the simplest and meanest ministers commonly found?
A21107and where is most vse of maintenance, there least bee yeelded?
A21107are wee stronger then hee?
A21107are wee wiser then he?
A21107but an halfe- peny at a time?
A21107but 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?
A21107but, what in duety and conscience euery man, or any man ought to paye?
A21107can a man so liue?
A21107decree that which is equal and right, if not equitie it selfe?
A21107doo they not then openly, without any colour at all, set open the doore vnto extreame impietie& sacriledge?
A21107gaue the ● r superiors leaue to decree what they would, but tooke libertie to themselues to obserue what they listed?
A21107had all at their owne disposition?
A21107honour God with none of his goods?
A21107is it little that God of all thine increase dooth first receiue his part, the tenth?
A21107is 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?
A21107is it not reason then, as hee is before him in degree, so hee should bee equall with him at least, in maintenance?
A21107is it not( where the best need to bee) in townes and Cities?
A21107is need alwaies iustly pretended?
A21107is there not greater cause of hospitalitie?
A21107men to pay tithes of their labour, and of their priuate gaines?
A21107must be a keeper of hospitalitie, and so bee able to entertaine others, aswellas to liue himselfe?
A21107nothing but his accustomed offerings?
A21107now haue not townesmen vse and neede of the Gospel?
A21107of teachers, as well as husbandmen?
A21107of the ministerie?
A21107of this I meane, That the minister should stand to euery mans curtesie?
A21107or dispense with those whom God doth bind?
A21107or dooth hee not rather in the first clause speake generally of all goods whatsoeuer?
A21107or giuen them power to pare off the superfluitie thereof?
A21107or his oxe fodder enough, that he may plough well?
A21107or of some part of goods, bee de ● rauded of other sortes?
A21107or onely this present age?
A21107or order a thing wisely and excellently, if not wisedome it selfe?
A21107or rather being duely and well pay 〈 … 〉 of his parishioners( the husbandmen) serue the other, the tradesmen for nought?
A21107or that ministers complaine without cause, and be already euery where duly& sufficiently prouided for?
A21107or who feedeth a flocke, and eateth not of the milke of the flocke?
A21107or( more rightly to speake) both to sow and to reape in teares?
A21107purposely to abide in errour?
A21107reward the minister that giues him spirituall things, with none of his temporall?
A21107saith not our Apostle the same also?
A21107seeing Wee refuse to entertaine such as should teach vs, and count the cost and charge thereof( as we tearme it) better saued?
A21107so may I say, What?
A21107that giueth the townesman power to get riches, aswel as the countryman?
A21107that maketh men to prospe ●, whether it bee by sea or by land?
A21107that professing religion and pretending a zeale vnto the Gospel, we should yet hold in contēpt& vile account the Ministers of the Gospel?
A21107the place of their rest?
A21107thee I say, thy wife, thy children, thy seruants, and the straunger that is within thy gates?
A21107they neede some extraordinary succour?
A21107to deny or debarre him his due, which is his hire?
A21107vectigal, if it be not Tithes?
A21107what euery priuate person?
A21107what wouldest thou doo if reseruing the 9. partes to himselfe, hee had left thee only the tenth?
A21107what?
A21107when as they were the treasurers for the whole Church?
A21107who can in his labour doo anything workmanlike& artificially, that wanteth time, tooles& instruments conuenient and fit for the purpose?
A21107who can trauaile a iourny that hath not wherewith to defray his expenses?
A21107who is there that paies them?
A21107who planteth a vineyard,& eateth not of the fruite thereof?
A21107why should they not maintaine him aswell as the other?
A21107why should wee not then honour him with a speciall part of the one, as well as of the other?
A21107why then, where there is greatest need, should there bee meanest help?
A21107will any workman worke with thee, either by the day or at taske, without agreement what to haue?
A21107wilt thow lay out little, and receiue for it more?
A21107wouldest thou put out thy goods to increase?
A21107yea, where other men sow in teares and reape in ioy, shall wee bee infor ● ed to sow in ioy, and reape in teares?
A21107yet 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?)
A2704610. 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?
A27046A known falshood, if a Question may be false: What matter of Fact shall ever come to Posterity by such hands without falsification?
A27046A man that never saw me: why did he not cite Bishop Brambal''s proof?
A27046Alas, Brother, did you shew this to any man before you Printed it?
A27046Alas, how fell the good man under this temptation?
A27046Alas, will the good man turn Papist or Infidel, unless the Universal Church and a Diocesane have the same specifying difference, or formal Head?
A27046Am I therefore a Conformist?
A27046And I pray you, what number of Sinners must go to prove a Religion, Creed, or Articles false?
A27046And are all these Fathers and Christians damn''d?
A27046And are these his saving truths?
A27046And are you sure that your Conformists also are damned?
A27046And by what means shall any Church or Party under Heaven defend their Religion against such a Censurer and Disputant as you are?
A27046And can one and the same thing have two different Essences, beings, and definitions?
A27046And can you insist on such passages thus against your sight, when your Error is detected?
A27046And did not all my tedious writings convince you before now?
A27046And do not all Christians?
A27046And doth he say Yea, or Nay?
A27046And had the Text those contrary senses?
A27046And hath not he forsaken you also?
A27046And hath not the same Collect the same sense on the next days?
A27046And have you now vindicated the Doctrine of the chief Prelatists any better than by disowning them?
A27046And how came we to be less free than our Ancestors that made such Offices?
A27046And how long it was before the Christians had many considerable Schools, much less Universities?
A27046And how silly a shift is all this covered with?
A27046And if we are taken for intollerable Malefactors, is not undeceiving our Accusers and Haters a necessary means of Peace?
A27046And indeed, do you loath as much the altering of your Church Government as the Kings, and yet be loyal?
A27046And is Communicating in the Lords Supper all the Conformity that is scrupled?
A27046And is it hypocrisie then to say, I feared to displease you?
A27046And is it not credible that every man loveth himself, and is unwilling to be ruined?
A27046And is not that true?
A27046And is that no difference?
A27046And is that unequal?
A27046And is the Captain a Troop, or the Pastor a Church, if he be the gatherer of it?
A27046And 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?)
A27046And must Christ bear such a charge as well as I?
A27046And must you not Assent and Consent to all things in it?
A27046And next, why did you not prove that we hold those rebellious Genevian Principles?
A27046And our Question is not, what Party of Lads, or Apprentices, or Women did clamour against Bishops,?
A27046And quid inde?
A27046And so, whether the word Church here signifies but one Species?
A27046And this Talk needs a Confutation?
A27046And though I urge him, he will not answer what I said of the Question, Who shall judge whether the Minister be faithful?
A27046And was it possible that you should think that this made for you?
A27046And was that before the raising of the Army?
A27046And were you willing here to be understood?
A27046And what Doctrine is it to say, Christs Body is one; not as one is opposed to multitude, but to division and destruction?
A27046And what a jumble of swearing and unswearing would you have us make?
A27046And what else is it that we say, but the Using without Approving, satisfieth not the imposition?
A27046And what got the People by that scruple?
A27046And what if he can not be their Governour without their consent, doth this give them any part in governing?
A27046And what if they do?
A27046And what men the common Presbyters were; yea, and the Bishops for the most part?
A27046And what more necessary to unite us against the common Adversaries?
A27046And what need we more, were not the Parliament Lay- men?
A27046And what of that?
A27046And what saith he?
A27046And 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?
A27046And what then?
A27046And what then?
A27046And what''s all this to our Controversie?
A27046And 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?
A27046And where should I begin but with the first?
A27046And who knoweth not that proximity is but dispositio materiae, and not the differencing form?
A27046And whose practice must it be that is the Exposition?
A27046And why must my Ministry lie on a thing beyond my knowledge?
A27046And why?
A27046And will true Conscience be convinced by such Arguments?
A27046And will you defend or own all that then was confessed by them?
A27046And will you so grosly dispute down Non- conformity?
A27046And would they also repent and change their minds, if they were alive?
A27046Anne putares?
A27046Answer, Is this proving?
A27046Answer, Still worse and worse: what Confusion is here?
A27046Are Conformists come to that?
A27046Are Presbyterians all for Excommunicating Kings?
A27046Are Rubricks of no use?
A27046Are not Bishops and Laicks partes heterogeneae?
A27046Are not Christ and Christians, the King and the Subjects of the Universal Church, partes heterogeneae, in esse politico relativo?
A27046Are not diversa distinguishable as well as opposita?
A27046Are not the words universal?
A27046Are not these words plain?
A27046Are not whole stones part of Mountains?
A27046Are such Doctrines of certain Faith no parts of the Book?
A27046Are they not Relative opposita?
A27046Are they not worthy to be silenced and branded as you have done, that can resist such Light?
A27046Are we guilty of that Mistake, who Take it, and Write for it?
A27046Are we not to do it in every partaking of the Lords Supper?
A27046Are we, I say, we now living, and silenced, answerable for all that any Presbyterian holdeth, any more than you are for what Hooker holdeth?
A27046Are your Logicks above my skill to answer?
A27046Are your ways here equal too?
A27046Are your words like Cyphers, that change their power by such additions?
A27046As if the King be contrary to himself, if his Kingdom and a Corporation or School be not of the same species?
A27046As to your doubt, whether England infected not Scotland?
A27046Barclay and Grotius make?
A27046But I pray you dream not, that I take all the old Ministry for such as these?
A27046But I think the King may not Administer Sacraments or Spiritual Discipline himself: Which of our Kings did it?
A27046But all your ways are just and equal: But I pray you, why was no Article about Excommunicating Kings offered us as a Test?
A27046But did they not increase and multiply?
A27046But do you believe therefore that there are no subordinate Species of Churches and Honour on Earth?
A27046But doth that prove that there are no subordinate Societies in these?
A27046But fie, Sirs, why will you talk of[ straining Oaths, and turning plain Oaths into Snares, ana ● allowing no Interpreters?]
A27046But how heedlesly do you read?
A27046But how long since after Edge- Hill Fight?
A27046But 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?
A27046But if all the Christian world be of the same mind, do they all set up Atheism, and are you only free?
A27046But 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?
A27046But is this the Question?
A27046But is this true?
A27046But it is not these Ends that will serve to prove a War lawful?
A27046But nobis non licet, Must we be Silenced and ruined for want of such Charity?
A27046But the Question is, Whether these be such?
A27046But what Party it was that raised the War?
A27046But what am I doing?
A27046But what good will it do the Reader, to have this mans Falshoods detected and numbred?
A27046But what if all this had been true?
A27046But what if the Bishop spake as falsely, as if he had said that I pleaded for Mahomet?
A27046But what if the first Non- Conformists erred?
A27046But what meant he to say[ should it be practised?]
A27046But what were the parts they had to act?
A27046But what''s all this to our Case in hand?]
A27046But what''s next?
A27046But what''s this to the Case?
A27046But where did the Lord Digby say it?
A27046But where is it that I said, that these honest Conformists sin avowedly, delaberately, and against knowledge?
A27046But where''s his proof?
A27046But who accused them?
A27046But why talk you of none being Interpreters?
A27046But will you falsly accuse the part that is good for the part that is evil?
A27046But you come to the quick, and say,[ Is there no Communion but personal?
A27046But( saith he) may not a man be a Shepherd by calling and occupation, unless he have a Flock, as well as a Physician?
A27046But, saith he, Why not à Church- Covenant for all other Duties?
A27046But, saith he,[ This makes against you — Can any man forbid these people from being Members of the Particular Church that are of the Universal?]
A27046Can you believe this?
A27046Can you not forbear this ill custome a few Lines together?
A27046Can you prove that I am for Silencing faithful Ministers, and making partition separating hedges in the Vineyard of Christ?
A27046Christ and a Bishop are heterogeneous: Yea, a Diocesane and a Parish- Priest: have you proved that they are not?
A27046Could it have been proved, would not the Duke of Buckingham have alledged it against his Adversaries?
A27046Could that be the Cause or Controversie which they were both agreed in?
A27046Did I?
A27046Did ever Christian before you, deny particular Churches to be distinct policies, and parts of the Universal?
A27046Did he not tell you that the Copy was interlined with Hookers own hand, as approving it?
A27046Did not even the Westminster- Assembly of old Conformists forsake it assoon as they could?
A27046Did not we live in the Country with them?
A27046Did 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?
A27046Did these Lads give the Earl of Essex his Commission?
A27046Did these satisfie him to Conform herein?
A27046Did they never read or hear what might be said for the New- Conformity?
A27046Did this prove me to be neither fish nor flesh?
A27046Did you ever know any put to death or burnt at a Stake for your Opinion?
A27046Did you not know till now, that the Nonconformists are not in all things of one mind?
A27046Did you think we must take your bare word in so great a case?
A27046Do I mai many Sentence?
A27046Do I pervert any?
A27046Do all or half the Non- conformists profess themselves Presbyterians?
A27046Do any Independents say that none are Christians but their special charge; yea, or stated Members of particular Churches?
A27046Do not Heathens abhor such Injustice as this?
A27046Do not men pay dearer for a place in a Play- house, than in the Church?
A27046Do not the Popish, Protestant, Episcopal, and Presbyterian, differ in the Form of Government?
A27046Do not those of the same Form differ as Individuals by their several Rulers?
A27046Do not you in Print proclaim men to be flesh or fish, hot or cold, that are not so?
A27046Do they think it enough to warrant their slanders of us, because one of their Archbishops hath slandered us before them?
A27046Do we forbid them that are not willing, or do they forbid themselves?
A27046Do we shut them out that will not come in?
A27046Do you intimate an Accusation against Many of them; and when I name almost all of that County neer you, will you absolve them all?
A27046Do you know that the Parliaments Adherents drew up a Catechism out of that Answer, as pretending to justifie all their Cause by it?
A27046Do you know what Discipline they were of at Prague?
A27046Do you mean in you or in me, or all others?
A27046Do you not Assent to that neither?
A27046Do 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?
A27046Do 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?
A27046Do you say one word to prove your affirmation?
A27046Do you think that the Christian world, which hath ever been of the opinion which you detest, had never any Religion?
A27046Doth every one that after consenteth do more?
A27046Doth he not know that it is practised by them all?
A27046Doth he take such Arguments for unanswerable?
A27046Doth he that dishonoureth the University, deserve honour for being at the University?
A27046Doth it not imply, that you will take an Oath your self, if you judge but one part of it lawful?
A27046Doth it oblige only the first time?
A27046Doth not the extreme bold confidence of the falsest of his own conceptions, shew a very unhumbled overvaluing of his own understanding?
A27046Doth not this savour of Factious malignity?
A27046Doth the Act go to the Essence of the Object?
A27046Doth the Physician forbid them to be his Patients that consent not?
A27046Doth this suppose them ungodly before?
A27046Durst you swear that none of the Lords, or Commons, or Citizens meddled with the War, but those that entred into the Army?
A27046Either 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?
A27046Enquire who drave away the People of Kederminster?
A27046Farwel the credit of all History, if there be no truer Historians:( But how shall Posterity know who they are?)
A27046For who can hold that which will away?
A27046Had he forgot how much of his Book is to prove even Bishops and Presbyters as widely different?
A27046Had he no pretence for it?
A27046Had it not been better for your to have let your Logick alone, than to bewray that which you might have concealed?
A27046Had the Martyrs been burnt, if men had been of this minde?
A27046Had they not Learning or Wit enough to understand it?
A27046Hath Christ a multitude of Bodies univocally so called?
A27046Hath Christ many Universal Churches containing all Christians headed by Christ?
A27046Have I so oft exprest it, and yet will you say so?
A27046Have there not since more( of the Laity) turned from you, than have turned to you?
A27046Have we so many Books written of Ecclesiastical Policie, and is there no such thing?
A27046Have you read him all, and understand him no better?
A27046Have you read the Kings Answer to the 19 Propositions?
A27046He addes,[ What shall godly Strangers, Travellers,& c. do?
A27046He 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?]
A27046He that refuseth Consent to be a stated Member, is none such: But is he therefore no Christian?
A27046He would 1. make it doubtful, Whether it was a Vow to God?
A27046Hearken whether they talk not more for Bishops, than for any other Sect?
A27046How came he to think that Election is nothing to the case, as if Consent were something more?
A27046How could you wink so hard, as not to see that your false witness confuteth it self?
A27046How did this bold man know my thoughts?
A27046How false is it then, that[ this is distraction and rage?]
A27046How far doth your hearing reach?
A27046How far will that hold?
A27046How few words of Truth, and soberness, and soundness, can you number among all these?
A27046How little truth is in all this, and abundance such?
A27046How long will you be of the Parish- Priests or the Diocesans Flock, or of a Physicians Hospital?
A27046How many of that Party have you known in such places of Trust?
A27046How shall the unlearned know when they are safe?
A27046I hope he doth not think all is excluded that is not to be named?
A27046I hope then a Bishop and a Presbyter are all one, that in your sorry sense agree in uno tertio?
A27046I 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?
A27046I know there are many excellent men: But I think the present Non- conformists as fit for the Sacred Office as these;( Is that presumption?)
A27046I 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?
A27046I 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?
A27046I never till now read or heard Papist, Protestant, or any Christian of his mind: And, alas, are divers of it now?
A27046I own that which you transcribe?
A27046I say, can I expect that such should be able or willing to understand us?
A27046I suppose you know, when the Test in the Corporation- Act was imposed, that Party were then turned out of all Corporation- power?
A27046I 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?
A27046If Christ and a Bishop in esse relationis politicae differ essentially, must good and bad, Heaven and Hell be all one?
A27046If I give him no more than he is willing of, what do I put him out from?
A27046If I have disputed the Case by Reasons, Why did he not cite them, and tell where?
A27046If a Captain have commission to raise a Troop, is consent of the Listed needless?
A27046If by[ All] or[ None] I understand All or None, and you understand not All but Some, who is the Strainer of the Oath?
A27046If de re, do you mean any more than that he is authorized to gather and rule a Flock?
A27046If it be, dare you oppose it?
A27046If more, what is it?
A27046If not, how shall we know which words are useless?
A27046If not, is not one of them contrary to the Text?
A27046If not, tell us how we shall know what are parts of it, and to what we must consent?
A27046If our Preaching did no good to Souls, why should you think that yours does any?
A27046If so many in Queen Maries days were burnt for denying the Real Presence,& c. Shall I not fear Perjury?
A27046If so, is not[ conteined] an idle word when all men know that all that is prescribed is conteined?
A27046If so, you are men of no true Religion: If not, why expect you it from us?
A27046If the Materia Jurata be Lawfull, do you think that the unlawfulness of the other two, do leave no need of an Absolution?
A27046If there be any such, what''s that to me?
A27046If you can think so, why must all be silenced that think otherwise, and dare not be so bold?
A27046If you mean that indeed they do not, why would you not say so, and deal plainly?
A27046If you preach the same Gospel, why should you think so well of your own works above other mens?
A27046If you require me to write out all his Book, when ever I transcribe a part?
A27046In some places not two of the old staid in: And is it any wonder then, if none of that Party be in such Power?
A27046Is Christ''s Discipline against our highest Priviledges?
A27046Is Mr. Allen''s Book for Covenanting, and Mr. Rawlet''s of Sacramental Covenanting, such unchristening Heresies?
A27046Is a Positive and a Comparative Assertion all one?]
A27046Is a man and womans Consent needless, unless the Ministers marrying them be needless?
A27046Is he a compleat Pastor of a Flock that hath none?
A27046Is he not a Calumniator, unless he prove it?
A27046Is 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?
A27046Is it all the Christian world?
A27046Is it damnable or sinful to covenant to be a godly Servant, or a godly Husband or Wife, or a godly Minister or Magistrate?
A27046Is 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?
A27046Is no modesty or tender fear of sinning against the Ninth Commandment left?
A27046Is not Animal rationale a just definition of a man, without naming his Liver and Spleen, or Heart?
A27046Is not Conformity now another thing?
A27046Is not Consent then necessary to the imposed Pastor, if not consenting Unchristen men?
A27046Is not a whole hand or foot part of a whole man?
A27046Is not one Joshua Placaeus pro deitate Christi, worth all that ever was then wrote?
A27046Is not the Genus& differentia enough for a definition?
A27046Is not the mateial Universe made up of compounded parts?
A27046Is not your Superiour''s judgment imposed on you to Assent to?
A27046Is such Conformity tolerable, and our Preaching intolerable without it?
A27046Is that an unequal expectation?
A27046Is that the art of defining?
A27046Is the rest contradictory to this?
A27046Is there any part of the Universe if this be true?
A27046Is there no such thing as Personal Communion in presence, because there is such a thing as distant Communion of another sort?
A27046Is this fairly done, to pretend that to be the Controversie which I never undertook to meddle with?
A27046Is this it in which the Authority of Archbishops consisteth, that they must be followed in slanders?
A27046Is this lawful?
A27046Is this made by a Minister a heinous sin?
A27046Is this the equality of your way?
A27046Is this the usual sence of[ All things,& c.] If not, where have the Law givers given us another?
A27046It is a fallacy, A dicte secundum quid ad dictum simpliciter: I only askt you, What Farthing doth it take from their Estates?
A27046It is a wonder to me that an Englishman should be in doubt who they be that drive men from the Parish Churches?
A27046It is not one or two such men as are the Guides of Souls in England: But what?
A27046Judge by old experience: Were old Hildersham, Ames, Dod, and hundreds like them, brought to Conformity heretofore?
A27046Judge by present Experience: Why is it not done, if it be morally possible?
A27046Let those sober men pass by; Do such Houses want custome?
