A55723( cryed I, as soon as my Friend had read it) do they call this confirming of Edicts in France?

A55723But, said I to my Friend, do you believe that the Grandson of Henry the Fourth is bound to make good what his Grandfather did?
A55723For which is the better of the two, to stab with one blow, or to make men die by little and little, of hunger and misery?

A41431But after Consecration what do you call them?
A41431But do you acknowledge that the words quoted out of this Work( be it whose it will) do signifie Transubstantiation?

A41431Is it not much, an Error could be so general, and so long maintain''d without any Opposition or Notice taken of its Birth or Origin?
A41431Now what should make them think( for know, I am sure they can not) that Transelementation signifies less than Transubstantiation?
A41431What do you Adore when you receive?
A41431What do you call that Gift which is brought, before the Invocation of the Priest?

A48816But admitting those Acts to have been just and good, how can they reject those Canons from which they had their virtue and efficacy?
A48816But as Humane Nature is, and in a Fortune so liable to temptation, how hard a thing it is for any Prince to escape this charge?
A48816But can any one imagin that those excellent men did ever believe themselves to be under the Roman Bishop?
A48816But how few of their General Councils can pretend to either of these Conditions?
A48816But how then could they take upon them to be Popes?
A48816Could any assurance of their Cause have justified that contempt of Authority, if they had known any in him?
A48816Either they do not think it so bad as they pretend; or else what Wretches are they to juggle with the Consciences of their People?
A48816For from whence should he have it?
A48816How came King Henry VIII to pass his Law against the Papal Supremacy?
A48816How can they be assured but that many of these, who pretend to be their Servants and Subjects, may prove to be their dangerous Enemies?
A48816If any practice be Catholic, what can be more properly so, than that which is the first Commandment of their Church?
A48816In all which time of bondage and misery, which that poor Church hath endured, what relief hath she had from the Interest or Wealth of the Papacy?
A48816Namely, to keep her Festivals, to hear Mass, to joyn in Offices of the Church?
A48816Nor if there had been, could that have obliged aftercomers to receive whatsoever should pass afterward in that Council?
A48816Or whether he did no more in that matter than he might lawfully do, according to the Principles of his own ▪ that is, the Roman, Communion?
A48816What is, if this be not, to assault the publick settlement?
A48816and either to force our Governors to alter it, or to set the people against them for continuing it?

A53386All this was but duty in him to doe, and can it be lesse then dutie in us?
A53386As for the gaine and advantage I mentiond, can there be any greater gaine than Salvation?
A53386But how may they doe that?
A53386But now how did Luther carry himselfe?
A53386Concerning the Point of Praedestination, how doth the Church of Christ groane under the burden of a number of huge& high- swolne Volumes?
A53386For indeed what a small and slender hedge is it, which now divide ▪ s and part''s us?
A53386For what can be imagined more unequall, than that one man''s crime, or commendation, should be imputed to all?
A53386How much more prudently did that blessed Martyr and most learned Father of his Times, S. Cyprian behave himselfe?
A53386How much truer and more charitable is that opinion of a grave and moderate Divine?
A53386In such a multitude of mysteries, who can chuse but admire that there should not be above one or two Points wherein they did not fully agree?
A53386Let us view a comparison betwixt things humane& divine, although what similitude can there bee''twixt Earth and Heaven?
A53386Likewise also that of the Apostle, what agreement hath the Temple of God with Idols?
A53386Now then how extreme faulty in this kinde Divines of both sides have beene, who is there that see''s not?
A53386Now who is there that doe''s not daily solicite God for the flourishing and peaceable estate of his Church?
A53386Shall they breath out nothing but mildnesse and sweetnesse, and wee nought but rage and fury?

A34543Are they jealous that the Structure of their Government may be weakned, and at length dissolved?
A34543As for the objected unprofitableness of their returning, how doth it appear?
A34543Because All Truths have been disputed, doth it follow, that there are no indisputable Truths?
A34543But hath the French King less assurance of the Loyalty of His Protestant Subjects, then of the Roman- Catholicks?
A34543But is this person consistent with himself?
A34543But who best knows their hearts, themselves or their Adversaries?

A34543If Episcopacy yeeld to a Moderate Course, why should any prudent Dissenters go about to molest it?
A34543If some offer to disturb the Peace, can no Rule of Government restrain them?
A34543If these and other Varieties, be no reproach to our Church, will it reproach her to suffer one to Officiate with a Surpliss, and another without it?
A34543Is a Can not for Conscience sake, of no more force than a bare Will not?
A34543Is there any Justice or Charity in such dealing?
A34543May not the Church salve her Honour, by declaring, That in remitting these Injunctions, she meerly yeelds to the infirmity of weak Consciences?
A34543One may well ask, Where is the Truth and Candor of those men that write after this manner?
A34543Or is Toleration the reason of a standing Army in the United Provinces of the Netherlands?
A34543Or was it ever formed in England?
A34543That such Condescention and Clemency should be used on the One side, and such Humility and Modesty on the Other, why should it seem impossible?

A61497And did not we so too?
A61497And have not we been long since; nay, are we not reproached even unto this day with the very self- same Imputations?
A61497And how punctually have we observed this Rule of good old St. Cyprian?
A61497And since God in so clear Text did approve the one, why should any man ever doubt the other?
A61497And we demand, whether for so many hundred years were all the Iews damn''d that did worship God in High Places?
A61497And yet in succeeding times how constantly did they violate this most severe Sacred Law?
A61497And yet in these times have not we the like Sons of Thunder?
A61497And yet might such a Iew be held guilty of Schism?

A61497But to remove these Abuses here, did not this Prince first abuse himself, to fit his hands for this work?
A61497But what?
A61497But whence came Filioque in Two of these Three Creeds, if not in a Provincial Synod?
A61497But you''l demand perhaps, For how long a time was the Hebrew Church thus corrupted?
A61497Did Hezekiah the King make his Person no less than plain Head of the Church of Iudah?
A61497Does your God sometime forsake his Church, or will for Hundreds of Years suffer it to be so constantly obscur''d?
A61497For what Christian Princes can now give safe conduct to the Bishops and Patriarchs of those remoter parts of the Church?
A61497Has God''s Church of the Law been so foully blemished, and may that of the Gosyel boast of a more constant Beauty?
A61497How will that poor man, whom perhaps thou now pitiest, plead against thee at that Last Bar of Christ''s Judgment?
A61497How, saith he, shall the unlearned say Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he understands not what thou say''st?
A61497It''s not lawful to plant a Church by such Force; and is it lawful thus to reform it?
A61497Let them ask Naaman too, where was he before Elisha had heal''d him?
A61497Master, shall we command fire from heaven?
A61497Or is a man no Older than his Health?
A61497Shall we by a Covenant swear Christ into his Throne, or forswear the King out of his?
A61497Shall we raise a Rebellion?
A61497They ask whether our Forefathers were damn''d, who, we grant, dyed in their Religion?
A61497They ask why their opinions should be condemn''d for Errors, if we know not the precise time when they rose?
A61497Was''t no where, or invisible?
A61497Were your Predecessors blinded with one joint consent?
A61497What Iew, I wonder, could this speech move, unless''t were to laughter?
A61497What think ye will be replied to these, and the like kind of men, but ye know not of what spirit ye are?
A61497Where was their Church before Hezekiah?
A61497Your Fathers worshipp''d in these High Mountains; but ye now say, Ierusalem''s the place; where was the Church before Hezekiah?

A61590And is it now any wonder that such errors and corruptions should come into that Church, as those we charge them with?
A61590And is not this the height of Evangelical Love and Sweetness?
A61590And would he suffer that to be overspread with such a Leprosie, and send none of his Priests to discover it?
A61590Are they any thing kinder to us than they have been?
A61590Besides, how can the Protestants ever answer their rejecting the Authority of the present Church which they lived under?
A61590But besides all this, Where was their Church before Jesus of Nazareth?
A61590But the great Question here is, What ground St. Paul had to decline the Authority of the present Church?
A61590Do not themselves acknowledge, that they receive the Law and the Prophets from our hands?
A61590For where( say they) were the men to be found in former Ages, that taxed the Jewish Church with such errors and corruptions as Jesus of Nazareth did?
A61590For, was not this a matter of difficulty, whether the Messias were to be a temporal Prince or not?
A61590Had no persons any regard to God and the purity of Religion then?
A61590Had not God alwayes a Visible Church among them?
A61590Hath not God said, that in his House at Hierusalem he would put his Name for ever; and his eyes and his heart should be there perpetually?
A61590How is it then possible but there must be a constant and visible Succession in all Ages?
A61590If they had, would they suffer strange fire to come upon Gods Altar, and take no notice at all of it?
A61590Is the Romish Religion any thing better than it was then?
A61590Must they let them alone and not endeavour to convince them of the truth of their own Doctrine?
A61590Nay, have they not rather established and confirmed them more?
A61590No, they must submit to their Governours: Have any of the Rulers, or Pharisees believed on him?
A61590Novelty, and Faction?
A61590Now how is it possible to believe, that such devout persons as these are mistaken, and the Sect of the Nazarenes only in the right?
A61590Were all men asleep then to suffer such alterations, and to say nothing at all against them?
A61590What a shame would it be for us, meanly and basely to betray that Cause, for which our Ancestors sacrificed their lives?
A61590What error in Doctrine, or corruption in Practice have they ever reformed?
A61590What pittiful proofs in comparison of this, are all those brought out of the New Testament for the Authority and Infallibility of the Roman Church?
A61590What then must the Christians do?
A61590What was his name, where was his abode, who first opposed and condemned him?
A61590What, could one Generation conspire to deceive the next?
A61590When came men first to forsake the letter of the Scripture, and adhere to Tradition?
A61590Where are the Deeds kept, that contain this gift?
A61590Where had God then any true Church in the world, if not among his people of the Jews?
A61590Where hath ever God promised that he would dwell in St. Peters at Rome, as he did, that he would dwell in his Temple at Hierusalem?
A61590Where was the watchfull eye of Providence over the Church all this while?
A61590Where was your Church before the Reformation?
A61590Where were those distinct bodies of men who found fault with those corruptions that you pretend to reform?
A61590Who can but admire the perswasiveness of such arguments to Gospel- meekness, and melt at the tenderness and bowels of an Inquisition?
A61590Who first brought in the Pharisaical Superstitions?
A61590Who were the competent Judges in this case, but those whom God had established by his Law?
A61590Why are they not produced during all this contest?
A61590Why should this then be accounted any new doctrine which they all believed and received?
A61590and if not, how could such changes happen in matters of Religion, and no one take care to discover it and prevent the infecting of posterity by it?
A61590and to whom God had promised his infallible Spirit?
A61590concerning what time, and place, and person the Prophecies were to be understood?
A61590how can they clear themselves from faction and disturbing the peace of the Christian world, which lived in so great unity and peace before?
A61590that God had sanctified it, that his Name might be there for ever; and his eyes and his heart should be there perpetually?

A42139And what Jesus Christ are we obliged to believe in?
A42139And what Religion shall J profess, if J lay Scripture asyde?
A42139And what greater authoriti ● has a synod of England for to prov ● a Doctrin to be of the Reformation than a synod of France which I have produced?
A42139And what then?
A42139And why?
A42139And will you deny this to be the Doctrin of the Reformation, wheras its Scripture as interpreted by men of so eminent and sound a judgment?
A42139Articles of the Church of England, which allow no other Rule of faith but Scripture as each person of sound judgment vnderstands it?
A42139Articles?
A42139Ask them, if we be obliged to believe the Doctrin and sense of scripture delivered by a general Council?
A42139But can you prove this Doctrin by the testimony of any of our synods?
A42139But is there no Tenet of Religion which we are all indispensably obliged to hold?
A42139But what do you think of a Child Christen''d in Popery by a Monk or a Fryar, ought he to be Christen''d again in our Reformation?
A42139But what''s the matter?
A42139Can there be any synod in England of so great authoritie as our wise and prudent Parliaments?
A42139Can you prove that our Rule of faith is Scripture as any particular Dr or person of sound judgment vnderstands it?
A42139Destroy it?
A42139Did Luther and Calvin forsake the Pope and Councils, for to submit their judgments to any other?
A42139Did any teach that we may with a safe conscience change our Religion as you say?
A42139Did ever any Apostle speake with more courage?
A42139Do you think a Doctrin is not of the Reformation, because it s denied by the Church of England?
A42139Does he forsake the Reformation because he forsakes Lutheranism for Calvinism?
A42139Does not our Reformation teach that it''s possible to all men assisted with Gods Grace to keep the Commandments?
A42139Happily?
A42139Have not we many examples of his in our best& most renowned Reformers?
A42139How long halt ye between two opinions?
A42139Is''t possible?
A42139J ca n''t tell; what may be the reason, think you?
A42139J would gladly know, if it be lawfull to chop or change the text?
A42139Let vs ask this synod by what Rule of faith does the Reformation walk?
A42139Must I not believe that the Doctrin of Jesus Christ, delivered to his Apostles and the Church is true Doctrin?
A42139No sure; for Calvinism is as much of the Reformation as the other: Is not Protestancy as much the Doctrin of the Reformation as Presbyterie?
A42139Nor was it only Luther and Calvin spoke thus, but all our first blessed Reformers; and why?
A42139Or than Luther and Zuinglius our first Reformers inspired by God to teach vs the puritie of the Ghospel?
A42139Shock me?
A42139The Popes Supremacy is the Doctrin of Popery; who doubts it?
A42139Was it not from Luther and Zuinglius that England receiued the Doctrin of the Reformation?
A42139What do you think of Iustifying faith?
A42139What do you think, have not wee a Church on earth establisht by Christ, wherin wee are to live and serve him, and believe her Doctrin?
A42139What, not Paganism, which adored a Multitude of Gods, for Christianity which adores but one?
A42139Wherin can you say does this man transgress against the Doctrin or principles of the Reformation?
A42139Why?
A42139Will you believe Scripture, as it is interpreted, and in that sense which the Church, Councils, and Fathers propound vnto you?
A42139Would Luther have given this liberty, if Transubstantiation had not been the Doctrin of the Reformation as well as any other?
A42139You can never settle any but rhis, That every man may without le ● or hinderance believe what he please: and why should not this be a good Religion?
A42139],[ London?
A42139and if England be so bold as to say they erred in this, what assurance can we haue, but that they erred in the rest?
A42139and it shall be lawfull for them to believe it against the Doctrin of the whole Church?
A42139and must they be constrain''d to deny or believe because the fallible Church of England or France will have it so?
A42139and were not Doctor Morton, Fox, Field and Illiricus men of sound judgement, eminent Learning, and Godlines?
A42139and what difference betwixt you and the Church of Rome?
A42139and what if a Popish Priest or Fryar did becom of our Reformed Church, can he lawfully marry, wheras he made a vow of Chastity?
A42139and what then?
A42139and why should not it be lawfull to any Reformed to believe this, wheras its Scripture as interpreted by a man of so sound a judgment?
A42139are not Luther, Caluin, Danaeus, Ochinus as well of the Reformation; and men of as sound judgment as they?
A42139but England France and Scotland believes this Mysterie; well?
A42139by whom were they condemn''d?
A42139do not they persecute all non Conformists, as well as Popery?
A42139do you call an exchange of Paganism for Popery( introduced by Austin) a Happiness?
A42139does faith alone justify vs?
A42139have you met any thing in it, which shocks you?
A42139how can you say, J oblige you to believe fals and scandalous Tenets?
A42139if Popery( not withstanding it be Idolatrie, as they say) be a saving Religion; how can they deny but that Paganism is also a saving Religion?
A42139if- therefore this be Scripture as interpreted by them how can you deny it to be the Doctrin of the Reformation?
A42139is not Scripture our Rule of faith, and are wee to regard what any Church or all Churchs say, further than wee find by Scripture that they say well?
A42139me thinks you become pale som thing troubles you, speake, what i st?
A42139must J believe yours against my Conscience and knowledge ▪ or must not J believe my own?
A42139must our Rule of faith be Scripture as the Church of England vnderstands it, and not otherwise?
A42139of our Reformation, and our Travellers to the Court of Rome give this testimonie of them?
A42139or because she persecutes the Professors of it?
A42139or is it not the Doctrin of our Reformation?
A42139what do you inferr from this discourse?
A42139what is Calvinism, but what Calvin a particular Dr, judged to be the sense of Scripture against that same Church?
A42139what must a man believe for to be a true Reformed?
A42139what need had our Forefathers therefore to abandon Paganism?
A42139what need therefore of a Bible for to have Religion?
A42139what say you to the Presbyterians, who preferr their own sense and interpretation of the Bible, before that of the Church of England?
A42139why was it not left in the land?
A42139you can hardly shew me any Tenet of Popery, but what is its Doctrin; what Doctrin more Popish than that of Confession and Absolution from sins?
A42139you say they are old condemn''d Heretiks: and does this language becom a Child of the Reformed Church?
A7615714. even multitudes both of men and women?
A7615741. but the Apostles that Baptized them, or judged them to be Baptized?
A761575. Who would you have trusted with this Power?
A76157A Diocesane Bishop is uncapable of doing it faithfully: Could one man Try, Approve and Confirm faithfully, all the Souls in 200 or 300 Churches?
A76157All Judges, Justices, and other Officers in the Commonwealth, have but a Ministerial Rule as Officers: But is that no Rule?
A76157And are the Pastour of Christs Church, the only slaves on earth?
A76157And did not the Bishops Confirm the Baptized, without consulting another Power?
A76157And do you grudg us such a Power as this?
A76157And if all these are fit to be Church- members, then we must make a new kind of Churches?
A76157And is there not need that they should be brought out into the open light, and see their way?
A76157And shall any man have Christs great, and precious Benefits against his will, and without his Approbation?
A76157And shall we all joyne to strengthen this potent Enemy?
A76157And shall we deliberately choose to offer God the worst, the least, the lowest that''s possible to find acceptance?
A76157And so in Practice, they love no differencing waies: But shall we so far gratifie the Devil and the flesh?
A76157And the Eunuch said, See here is water, what doth hinder me to be baptized?
A76157And we see that it is the custom of Hereticks to intrude: And who shall say to any of them, why do you so, if themselves are the only Judges?
A76157And were it not for this, what blessed work would the Gospel make?
A76157And what Magistrates were the Approvers for 300 years after Christ?
A76157And what if I have no infallible Certainty?
A76157And what if the People think a man unfit, whom the Pastour would Approve and Introduce?
A76157And what will be his portion, that hath a male in his flock, and offereth the worst, yea the halt and blind to God?
A76157And when the Church of Christ shall be turned into a den of thieves, or a sty of swine, what a great dishonour is it to the Lord?
A76157And who could have continued our deformities and divisions, and frustrated such means as have been used for our cure?
A76157And whose judgment is it, that we must follow, when we go against our own?
A76157And why then may not those be Christians and Church- members, that never heard of the Name of Christ, as well as many of these?
A76157And will any man, yea, will Paul, ascribe all this to those that did not so much as Profess the things signified, or the necessary Condition?
A76157But at least your designe lookes as if you would keep the Children of all such unchristened; and what work would that make?
A76157But fiat Justitia& ruat coelum: let us trust God with His owne Ordinances: we must do our duty, what ever come of it?
A76157But hath not Baptism done all this already, seeing we are Baptized into the Name of the Holy Ghost?
A76157But have we any certainty, that this Ordinance shall prove effectually confirming to us?
A76157But how do the Churches of France, Holland, Geneva and Scotland, that have exercised Discipline upon all?
A76157But if once we could but get men to stand in their own places, and to know themselves; how easily then would our message work?
A76157But if they have tryed it, what kind of Discipline do they exercise?
A76157But if we shall exercise the Discipline of Christ upon all in our ordinary Parishes, what work shall we make?
A76157But if you have no fitter for this work and trust, will you cast it upon unfitter or on none?
A76157But is a Ministerial Rule no Rule?
A76157But this will encourage tbe Anabaptists and Congregational, in their Express Covenantings, by our coming so neer them?
A76157But were there not more offenders then the incestuous man at Corinth?
A76157But what if one part of the Congregation approve of the Person and Profession, and the other disallow it?
A76157But what if the people would have the Pastour Baptize, Confirm, or introduce an open hereticke, or wicked person in his impenitency?
A76157But what of that?
A76157But what proofe is there in Scripture of such an Ordinance, or Practice?
A76157But why should I go any further in this, when the main substance of my Dispute of Right to the Sacraments proves it?
A76157Corinth had many offendours, whom Paul in that Epistle reprehendeth: but can you prove that any of them were obstinately Impenitent, after admonition?
A76157Did not all the Apostles, and every Preacher of the Gospel Baptize those that they convetred, and judge of them whether they were Baptizable?
A76157Do you find in most Parishes that Ministers are prone to overdo?
A76157Do you know what the Ministry and this Power is?
A76157Do you meane that it is by Gods Law, or the Laws of men, that Diocesan Bishops only may Confirm?
A76157Do you not see how backward Ministers are to Church- Reformation, and Discipline in the exercise, when they have been most forward for the Power?
A76157Do you think to use it but with few, when Impenitent, scandalous sinners are so many?
A76157For what can a Minister do himself, if the Church assist him not?
A76157Have they that talk thus, tried this course, or have they not?
A76157His dictis interrogandus est, an haec credat, atque observare desideret?
A76157How can weake professours be drawn to think well of that party, which they see do shun so needfull a Work of God?
A76157How can you tell how many Paul cast out?
A76157How dealt he with the woman taken in adultery?
A76157How improbable a thing is this?
A76157How little is yet done in it, for all our liberty, after all our Prayers, and petitions, and writing for it?
A76157How shall they escape that neglect of so great salvation?
A76157How the Holy Ghost is given before Faith, and after Faith, and how sealed in Baptism, and how not?
A76157How was it known but by their Profession?
A76157I know the Discipline is of excellent use, and is likely to have excellent effects: But upon whom?
A76157I would know of my adversary, what he would do with the Son of a Believer that were unbaptized at 40. or 50. years of age?
A76157If it be Independancy, how comes it to be approved by Prelates, and Presbyterians?
A76157If it be Prelacie, how comes it to be found with Independants?
A76157If it be thus, here, how much worse is it in most parts of the ● ● nd?
A76157If the People are the Rulers, who are the Ruled?
A76157If they are sure that they are washt with Christ''s Blood, how can they deny to wash them with that water, that is appointed to signifie and invest?
A76157If you ask me what shall be done with the rest, seeing they were admitted irregularly, without any Profession of the Faith?
A76157Is it not the use of the Lords Supper to Confirm us; and do not men there renew their Covenant and Profession?
A76157Is not this a delusory teaching of the Church, to call unbelief by the name of Negative Faith, or Negative Consent?
A76157It is a Power that hath Constantly been exercised by the Officers of Christ, and did not men smel out the Tyranny of it till now?
A76157It is a great trust for a Physician to be trusted with your lives, and a School- master and Tutour with your Children?
A76157It''s a very great question whether Adam in Innocency had the Spirit or not?
A76157It''s granted that Heresie cuts off: But how doth Heresie cut off any otherwise then Meritorio ● sly?
A76157Ministers can not in Conscience alwaies forbeare their Duty, but will set about it?
A76157Must I be sent to another Nation to know that which I have made tryall of, and attained the certain knowledg of, at home?
A76157Must we therefore refuse to agree in the practice of the aforesaid Confirmation?
A76157Now shall we take up with such signes of Christianity, as we see and know are commonly used by Infidels, when we may have better?
A76157Or a School master the Power of examining, and teaching your children?
A76157Or if you are not certain that a Sermon shall profit you, will you not hear it?
A76157Or shall the People therefore Rule these Rulers?
A76157Or shall we be content that our Churches have as many diseases as will consist with life and being?
A76157Or that Reading shall profit you, will you not read?
A76157Or that the Lords Supper shall increase your Grace; will you not use it?
A76157Or whether this Profession must be approved by the Pastour, of the Church, and known to them that must hold Communion with him?
A76157Or who but Philip alone was judge of his Profession?
A76157Or will you grudg a Physician the Power of judging of your disease, and the Remedy, to save your life?
A76157Or will you have no Tutours or Physicians?
A76157Shall we thus teach our people to esteem Christianity, as an unobservable thing, by no more observing it?
A76157The Jews held that an heretical Isralite, had no communion with the Church of Israel: and why?
A76157Thus farre we are agred: But what if we were not?
A76157To which saith the Jesuite, What do I heare?
A76157Were these sinnes but commonly reputed to be as odious as indeed they are, what a change would it make on millions of Souls?
A76157What Charity can their Doctrine glory of?
A76157What can be more plainly contrary to Scripture, then for the people by a Major Vote, to Rule those whom God commandeth to obey, as their Rulers?
A76157What have we to do with the signe, when the thing that occasioned the use of it is ceased?
A76157What if you have not a certainty that your Prayer shall be granted, will you not therefore pray?
A76157What is the Tongue made for but to express the mind?
A76157What mean you by Bishops?
A76157What need is there then of any more?
A76157What people did Philip advise with before he Baptized the Eunuch?
A76157What will the Magistrate do, if he help us not in this case?
A76157What would you have plainer?
A76157When will you make us believe, that Paul at that time commanded them to do that which he would not have them do?
A76157Where do you find that the Church in Scripture- times or after, was wo nt to Excommunicate Apostates?
A76157Who doubts of that?
A76157Who judged of Lidia''s Profession, and the Jaylours,( Acts 16) but the Apostles, or other Ministers of Christ?
A76157Why choose you not better if you know where to find them?
A76157Why should an Implicit Covenant and Profession be pleaded for?
A76157Why should we choose Darkness rather then Light?
A76157Why then should Ministers be forced to Give them against their Consciences?
A76157Why then should a possibility of Ministers miscarriage, cause you to be more against this, then all the rest?
A76157Why then should any be against an open Professing, and Covenanting with Christ?
A76157Why then should the ears of men be abused by the ● ame, when there is nothing to answer it?
A76157Will Baptism, in the judgment of a wise man, do all this for an Infidel, or one that Professeth not to be a Christian?
A76157Will any good and peaceable man refuse to joyne with those that think it necessary to Adult Church- membership?
A76157Would you grudg me the Power of threshing your corn?
A76157You know Faith in Infants,( such as we call Faith) is not necessary to their Justification; and yet will you say, it is not necessary to the Adult?
A76157and abundance more) and how can they oblige us more then them?
A76157and lay this share, and thrust men headlong into Hell, that are running down- hill so fast already: and all under pretence of Charity and Compassion?
A76157and why might we not hope, that all our people should be saved?
A76157dost thou think I am a Christian?
A76157much less if they hinder him?
A76157would be Baptize him without a profession of actuall Faith of his own, or not?
A42142And all that your Church of England mislikes, must be Fanaticism, Blaphemy, and Impiety?
A42142And as they erred so grosly in such prime Articles of Christianity, why do you fear and suspect they have also erred in the rest?
A42142And did not he very commendably deny it against them all, because he judged by Scripture it was not?
A42142And do not you know, that almost all our Congregations do hold our Clergy to be no true Clergy, but as meer Laymen as you or I?
A42142And if England be so bold as to say they erred in this, what assurance can we have, but that they erred in the rest?
A42142And is it against Mans reason that he in following Years may meet other Books of Arians, Socinians,& c. and do the like?
A42142And must they be constrain''d to deny or believe, because the fallible Church of England or France will have it so?
A42142And were not Doctor Morton, Fox, Field, and Illiricus, Men of sound Judgment, eminent Learning and Godliness?
A42142And what Jesus Christ are we obliged to believe in?
A42142And what Religion shall I profess if I lay Scripture aside?
A42142And what a greater Authority has a Synod of England, for to prove a Doctrin to be of the Reformation, than a Synod of France which I have produced?
A42142And what difference betwixt you and ● he Church of Rome?
A42142And what if a Popish Priest, or Fryar, did become of our Reformed Church, can he lawfully Marry, whereas be made a Vow of Chastity?
A42142And what then?
A42142And what then?
A42142And why must Luther, Illiricus, Flaccius, and others be forced to deny those Tenets, tho''Protestants or Papists judge them to be damnable?
A42142And why should not it be lawful to any Reformed to believe this, whereas it''s Scripture as interpreted by a Man of so sound a Judgment?
A42142And why should we dare say, our King would commit any, for depriving our Clergy of those Rents?
A42142And why?
A42142And will you deny this to be the Doctrine of the Reformation, whereas it''s Scripture as interpreted by Men of so eminent and sound a Judgment?
A42142Are not Luther, Calvin, Danaeus, Ochinus as well of the Reformation, and Men of as sound Judgment as they?
A42142Are they bound to submit their Judgments to the Church of England, more than to that of Rome?
A42142Because they follow Scripture as they understand it, and this is our Rule of Faith?
A42142But can you prove this Doctrine by the Testimony of any of our Synods?
A42142But do not you see it would be a Sacrilege, that the King should deprive the Clergy of their Church Revenues?
A42142But is there no Tenet of Religion which we are all indispensably obliged to hold?
A42142But what do you think of a Child Christen''d in Popery by a Monk or a Fryar, ought he to be Christen''d again in our Reformation?
A42142But what''s the matter?
A42142By whom were they condemn''d?
A42142Can there be any Synod in England of so great Authority as our wise and prudent Parliaments?
A42142Can you deny but this was the Rule of Faith, and principle of our first blessed Reformers, and of the Church of England, mentioned in her 39 Articles?
A42142Can you prove that our Rule of Faith is Scripture, as any particular Doctor or Person of sound Judgment understands it?
A42142Consequently what is the Doctrine of the Reformation, but what any Person of sound Judgment understands to be of Scripture?
A42142Destroy it?
A42142Did Luther and Calvin forsake the Pope and Councils, for to submit their Judgments to any other?
A42142Did any teach that we may with a safe Conscience change our Religion as you say?
A42142Did ever any Apostle speak with more Courage?
A42142Do you think a Doctrin is not of the Reformation, because it''s denyed by the Church of England?
A42142Does Faith alone justify us?
A42142Does he forsake the Reformation, because he forsakes Lutherism for Calvinism?
A42142Happily?
A42142Have not we many examples of this in our best and most renowned Reformers?
A42142How can you say, I oblige you to believe false and scandalous Tenets?
A42142How long halt ye between two Opinions?
A42142I ca n''t tell, What may be the reason, think you?
A42142I know many of our Congregation mislike much our Common- Prayer Book, for these Popish- Tenets; but what do you say of the grand errours of Popery?
A42142I would gladly know, if it be lawful to chop or change the Text?
A42142If therefore this be Scripture as Interpreted by them, how can you deny it to be the Doctrine of the Reformation?
A42142Is it not the Doctrin of the Reformation that the Apostles were infallible in their Doctrin?
A42142Is not Scripture our Rule of Faith, and are we to regard what any Church or all Churches say, further than we find by Scripture that they say well?
A42142Ismael Does not our Reformation teach that''t is possible to all Men, assisted with God''s Grace, to keep the Commandments?
A42142It''s possible?
A42142Let us ask this Synod by what Rule of Faith does the Reformation walk?
A42142Methinks you become pale, something troubles you, speak, what is it?
A42142Must I believe yours against my Conscience and Knowledge?
A42142Must I not believe that the Doctrin of Jesus Christ, delivered to his Apostles and the Church is true Doctrin?
A42142Must our Rule of Faith be Scripture, as the Church of England understands it, and not otherwise?
A42142No sure; for Calvinism is as much of the Reformation as the other: Is not Protestancy as much the Doctrine of the Reformation as Presbytery?
A42142Nor was it only Luther and Calvin spoke thus, but all our first blessed Reformers; and why?
A42142Or is it not the Doctrin of our Reformation?
A42142Or must not I believe my own?
A42142Or than Luther and Zuinglius our first Reformers, inspired by God, to teach us the purity of the Gospel?
A42142Or what Rule can you give for to know what is good or evil to be done, but Scripture as understood by such Persons?
A42142Shock me?
A42142Sure you will not say this Doctrine is of the Reformation or can be safely believed?
A42142The Lord, who is the Searcher of Hearts knows, you mis- conster my intentions: How can you say I intend to beat you from the Reformation?
A42142The Popes Supremacy is the Doctrin of Popery, who doubts it?
A42142The time may come that they may believe them all, and be still as good Reformers as now they are?
A42142Was it not by the Popish Church?
A42142Was it not from Luther and Zuinglius, that England received the Doctrin of the Reformation?
A42142What Principle is this, which you seem to make the only destinctive sign of a Reformed, from a Papist?
A42142What do you infer from this discourse?
A42142What do you think of Justifying Faith?
A42142What do you think, have not we a Church on earth establisht by Christ, wherein we are to live and serve him, and believe her Doctrin?
A42142What is Calvanism, but what Calvin a particular Doctor judged to be the sence of Scripture against that same Church?
A42142What is Quakerism, but honest Naylor''s Godly and Pious Sentiments upon Scripture?
A42142What must a Man believe for to be a true Reformed?
A42142What need therefore of a Bible for to have Religion?
A42142What say you to the Presbyterians, who prefer their own Sense and Interpretation of the Bible, before that of the Church of England?
A42142What, not Paganism,, which adored a Multitude of Gods, for Christianity which adores but one?
A42142Why?
A42142Will a Presbyterian believe Episcopacy, because the Church of England says it''s the Doctrine of Scripture?
A42142Will you believe Scripture, as it is Interpreted, and in that sense which, the Church, Councils, and Fathers propound unto you?
A42142Will you say this is the Doctrine of the Reformation, or that we can without scruple believe it?
A42142You can never settle any but this, That every Man may without let or hinderance, believe what be pleases; And why should not this be a good Religion?
A42142You say they are Old condemn''d Hereticks; and does this Language become a Child of the Reformed Church?
A42142and why will you not own the Arians,& c. as your Brethren, tho''you believe the Trinity against them?
A42142can a man be a true Child of the Reformation, and yet believe the Popes Supremacy?
A42142do not I insist and perswade you to stick fast to its Rule of Faith, and acknowledge no other but Scripture, as you understand it?
A42142do not they persecute all Non- confor ● ists, as well as Popery?
A42142do you call an exchange of Paganism for Popery( introduced by Austin) a Happiness?
A42142have you met any thing in it, which shocks you?
A42142or because she persecutes the Pro ● essors of it?
A42142why was it not left in the Land?
A42142would Luther have given this liberty if Transubstantiation had not been the Doctrin of the Reformation as well as any other?
A42142you can hardly shew me any Tenet of Popery, but what is it''s Doctrin; what Doctrin more Popish than that of Confession and Absolution from sins?
A34974( And presently after) Whosoever holds not the unity of the Church, does he believe that he holds the Faith?
A34974Against what Armes or Armies did they ever protest?
A34974And again, Who shall now have the ● oldnesse to dissolve the Statute of his Mother( the Church) or the Law of his Father?
A34974And again, is all that''s written in any Age still Extant, and come to our hands?
A34974And doth all this suit with the case of English Protestants?
A34974And if he say so, who can demostrate, that he does not think so?
A34974And is it Honorable, that the same authority should be granted to more than twenty of his Majesties own Subjects?
A34974And now let the Doctor say where is the impudent opposition of Supremacy and Iurisdiction both to the letter and sense of our Saviours Precept?
A34974And now, what shall we say our selves in this confused variety?
A34974And that was enough then; but what will it be when the Righteous Judge shall call that Sermon to a second account?
A34974And the Council of Tours says, What Bishop shall presume to act contrary to such Decrees as have proceeded from the See Apostolick?
A34974And what Cordial against this scrupulous Melancholly does Beza his good friend afford him?
A34974And what if all the Clergy which he opposeth be in the right?
A34974And what were the Apostles?
A34974And who is to judg of the Churches Error in non- Fundamentals?
A34974And why do we vow a practise of those vertues which are pure Gifts of God?
A34974And with St. Pacian, Though( the Schismatick) Novatian hath been put to death( for the Faith) yet he hath not been crown''d: Why not crown''d?
A34974Are these now marks onely of a Primacy of Order, and not Supremacy of Iurisdiction?
A34974Are you not afraid of, In quo judicio judicaveritis, judicabimini?
A34974As for the Apostolick Canon which forbids Priests,& c. to cast off their Wives: what would he infer from hence?
A34974Besides, if the change be not in the Elements, but in the Receivers Soul, what need is there of Consecration?
A34974But do those Writers concede such a purgation as their first Reformers administred to this Kingdom?
A34974But have we since those dayes deserved such a change in the Tongues and Pens of any Protestants, especially the Clergy?
A34974But how is this prov''d to be a Novelty?
A34974But how was it Arian, if it groaned?
A34974But if another General Council must decide it, why hath not the last General Council, which he disobeys, decided it?
A34974But if they be neither in Heaven nor Hell, where are they then?
A34974But may not ignorance excuse the guilt of Schism?
A34974But our present a la mode Treason is, that our Priests receive their Ordination from Rome: and do not they so to?
A34974But what effect had these Declarations and Protestations of the whole representative Clergy and Universities?
A34974But what expedient now, without such a primacy of Iurisdiction, can the Presbyterians find out against the mischief of Schism?
A34974But what is his Doctrin?
A34974But what shall we call that which is given to St. Peters?
A34974But what shall we say to the Doctors next inference, in a case of Schism?
A34974But what strange people have we among us?
A34974But which way possibly can any particular, person, or Church, arrive to such a demonstration?
A34974But, let me ask him, was there no Doctrine at all in the Church before it was written?
A34974But, why among such Governors as the Apostles, was any Supereminency of Iurisdiction given to one man?
A34974By betraying the present Churches Faith?
A34974By renouncing the Popes Iurisdiction, or consent to a composition?
A34974By what crimes?
A34974Can any Protestant now deny Sme ● ● ymnuus, Mr. Prinn, the Rump Parliament to have been persons of worth, place and esteem?
A34974Can any such interests as these be proved to have been operative in the Council of Trent?
A34974Can we believe the Doctor never read the ordinary Cases wherein Di ● orses are granted, as Pre- contract, Fear, Frigidity, Consanguinity?
A34974Did he himself do so?
A34974Did not our first Reformer consult sometimes with flesh and blood?
A34974Did they leave any young Apostles behind them?
A34974Do not your self confess, that Sacriledge and Rebellion help''d Reformation?
A34974Do they not think themselves obliged to communicate fasting, non- obstante, that our Saviour instituted the Sacrament after Supper?
A34974Do they not without scruple eat Black- puddings, non- obstante the Apostles gave a command to the contrary?
A34974Do you not see abroad a civil and learned portion of Christians in Communion with the Bishop of Rome, and are they no better than Mahometans?
A34974Does he think married persons are husbands and wives only in the night?
A34974Does your enlightned reason suggest ● his to you?
A34974Doth not this prohibition of the Priests from Marriage amount to the magnitude of an Iota with him?
A34974For did not the Arians urge that Plea against the Council of Nice?
A34974For fear of new Articles, must liberty be given to new Heresies?
A34974Good Doctor, do you think it a contradiction that God should bestow an infallibility, as to some things, on a Creature?
A34974Hereupon divers expedients were proposed, Treatises written,& c. by which the Emperors were in hope debates might be ended, But how?
A34974How comes it then to be one of his Grievances in this Sermon, and that under no milder a phrase than the Doctrine of Devils?
A34974How much more may we imagin that he hideth not the mighty works of his Providence, Mercy and Justice here on earth from those his Domestick Servants?
A34974How then are they to imitate their Supream Governor?
A34974I can not devise how to frame an Objection out of it: Can no Church be Orthodox, if Heretics rise and continue in the same City?
A34974I desire to know, whether before their Reformation, our Church was Schismatical, or it began afterwards so to be?
A34974If God said of Abraham, a Pilgrim on earth, Shall I hide from Abraham the thing that I do?
A34974If it was so before, where was that Church from which we separated?
A34974If not to Rome, how can all Bishops be said to be subject to five Patriarcs?
A34974If there be no gainsaying of men of worth, place and esteem?
A34974If these Souls were believ''d to be in Heaven would it not be ridiculous?
A34974In King Edwards daies, was not the Protectors seizing on the remainder of Church- spoils a great Interest?
A34974In renouncing Superiority?
A34974In such Royal Synods there must be order: which of them shall challenge a Primacy, even of Order?
A34974Is it unsafe?
A34974Is not now the Doctor''s Insincerity evident his insincerity even in the Pulpit?
A34974Is not this a strange way to justifie a Church- Reformation?
A34974Is the English Church a Quaking Church, because Quakers first began, and still encrease at London?
A34974Is this now dishonorable?
A34974It could not indeed be expected he should answer as a young maid did to my old Lady Falkland, when she asked, if she were a Catholick?
A34974Must there be no decisions in God''s Church after the four first General Councils?
A34974Nay, who besides himself calls it a Noveltie?
A34974Not one Text, not one Quotation appears in the Margin; and why?
A34974Now would it not be hard for the Doctor to speak his conscience, and declare once more at Court, which of us two are properly Schismaticks?
A34974Once at least in your life speak your Conscience: Do you think, or only suspect, that we Roman Catholics worship false Gods, and true Devils?
A34974Or St. Cyprian, whose words are, Who was more a Priest of the most High God, then our Lord Iesus Christ?
A34974Or because he judged their Decisions conformable to God''s express word?
A34974Or do those Fathers, who first writ it, say, That they, or their times first introduc''d it?
A34974Or if this may not oblige him, why should the next?
A34974Or was there no Doctrine in the Church but what was written?
A34974Or whether a person do know most certainly the contrary to what the whole Church hath decided?
A34974Or will he say, those first Councils( to which he professes assent) usurped an Authority in this, not of right belonging to them?
A34974Or will not such Antiquity pass for Primitive, and Antiquity Antique enough( to use his words)?
A34974Or, what ancient Tradition hath delivered to posterity for such?
A34974Saint Hierom writing against Vigilantius, sayes, What shall the Churches of the East do?
A34974Shall there be Patriarchicall, or General Councils of Kings meet together?
A34974That Luther must be a Scismatick?
A34974The Eutychians against that of Chalcedon?
A34974The Nestorians against that of Ephesus?
A34974This licence being admitted, who shall be judge, whether that which is pretended to be a Demonstration, be really one, or no?
A34974To all Supreme Princes, whether Catholics, or not?
A34974To what Prince is there such honour given?
A34974To what miserable straits a necessity of justifying the English Separation reduced such wise and learned men?
A34974To whom?
A34974Was Henry the Eighth so wholly spiritual?
A34974Was not his invading all the possessions and treasure of Monasteries a great secular Interest?
A34974Well, let this be granted; what will come of it?
A34974What Edicts were made against them?
A34974What did our Saviour give St. Peter when he said, I have prayed for thee that thy Faith fail not?
A34974What effect can Consecration have?
A34974What is the reason that the Ministers of England generally marry not till they are above thirty years of age?
A34974What means this phrase[ They have cast off their first Faith]( saith St. Augustin?)
A34974What sayes the witty Whitacre?
A34974What says Acontius?
A34974What shall the Churches of Egypt do?
A34974Which of these Independents will make himself a Dependent on another?
A34974Who offred a Sacrifice to God the Father?
A34974Who shall summon them?
A34974Why may not another man or woman as well as a Priest, administer this Sacrament?
A34974Why thus continually be harping upon one string that jarres, and never touch the rest that move in harmony?
A34974a dissolving the Communion and connexion that the members of this great Body have among themselves, and with relation to the whole?
A34974and of the See Apostolick?
A34974as ill, when you comply with the Hugenots, who are not at so perfect a harmony with you in your being clean?
A34974has he not palpably mis- inform''d his Majesty and so illustrious an Auditory?
A34974new Articles and Canons, by these Laws of the Code or Capitulare?
A34974not only without, but against the consent of the See of Rome, nor only of Rome, but of the whole Catholick Church?
A34974or the Parliament also, as in Queen Elizabeths) be infallible or no?
A34974or why may not a General Council determin such points as well as the laws of a particular Nation?
A34974shall I give you my Conjecture?
A34974the Eighths first Reformation, or K. Edwards, or Q. Elizabeths?
A34974then that what he drank after was not of the fruit of the Vine?
A34974was not the dividing the said Lands, among the Nobility and Gentry at very easie rates, a very great interest?
A34974were they valid?
A34974where should he find any?
A60366Afterwards being asked whether he would vouch the Truth of what he had said upon the word of an Honest Man?
A60366Again, Whether or not the Decrees of the Councils and Fathers?
A60366And grant there were any fault in that, is it therefore lawful, without a fair Trial, to make War against us?
A60366And if he would turn out the Ministers of the Church, who did not conform thereunto?
A60366And if on the other side, we should betray and desert those whom we ought to esteem above all others, because they profess the Religion we do?
A60366And must all these be lost?
A60366And must this our new Emperour suffer a great part of the Empire to be dismembred by Foreign Nations?
A60366And now, as to what concerns the Landtgrave, what a silly fiction the story of one Titelman is?
A60366And since He himself had hitherto without any exception acknowledged their Jurisdiction, with what reason could he now reject it?
A60366And then, Whether or not you will retract any thing in them, or stand to the defence of what you have written?
A60366And what can be more contrary to Natural Equity than to condemn unheard?
A60366And what could more enervate all the Authority of the Council, than that?
A60366And what is to be the term and period of this Captivity then, said the Landgrave, or by what space of time is it to be limited?
A60366And what was also Constance, and many other free Cities oppressed?
A60366And when you may obtain more by other Means, why will ye run so great a Risk?
A60366And why did he not now do it at Nordlingen, where he had staid for him the whole day?
A60366And why, saith he, do you now desire, now promise, now put off, and now refuse a Council?
A60366And why?
A60366And, can there be any greater Crime, than that?
A60366And, indeed, what else are these Sentences and Condemnations of theirs, but Alarms to make us prepare for War?
A60366Are they accused of breaking our Laws, perverting the Allegiance of our Cities or Provinces?
A60366At that time the Duke of Alva sent to demand of the Landgrave, why he kept so much upon Hills and Mountains?
A60366Austria belongs to the Dominion of Charles; If the French King invade this, as certainly he will, shall we leave it to his Mercy?
A60366Being asked why they had banish''d a Company of innocent Persons their City, contrary to their own Promise?
A60366Being asked, Why, since those of Ausburg had sworn to submit to it, and yet preached the Gospel, they did not do the same?
A60366Being therefore taken, he was carried Prisoner to George Duke of Saxony, and the Langrave; who asked him, why he had so seduced poor miserable Men?
A60366But how came it into your mind, to disobey the Emperour, by rejecting the Sequestration?
A60366But if it need it, How came ye to call it Holy?
A60366But now there is no end of Exactions, and how can that continue?
A60366But the Professors, he strictly charges, to give him a positive answer, whether they would obey the Emperours Edict, or not?
A60366But then, who is there who does not see the mischief of this, and how sad and mournful the Report of this must necessarily be to your People?
A60366But then,( said he) if the Question is put, Why are not the Laws executed?
A60366But what end, after all, do ye expect of this obstinacy and perfidiousness?
A60366But what is there like this in my Work?
A60366But what shall we say of those Benefices, which because they could not be lodged in one Person, were commonly called incompetible?
A60366But what was the issue?
A60366But what would that be else, than, with gawdy and painted words, first, to m ● ● k God, and then, the Emperour?
A60366But you say, that the Authors of the Translation are devoted to me: Do you think, that is to be found fault with, then?
A60366Can greater security be given?
A60366Could there any thing be done more Piously, or Christianly?
A60366Did not the Goths, by the same means, anciently, gain Italy; and the Lombards all Insubria, since called Lombardy?
A60366Did these things agree with the sacred Laws and Ordinances?
A60366Discoursing of several things at Supper, amongst other things he put the Question, Whether in the Life to come, we should know one another?
A60366Do n''t we see how they have hook''d in vast Estates, and got Towns, Provinces, Kingdoms and Empires into their Jurisdiction?
A60366Do you think that our own Liberty will be long safe, if these Provinces be once subdued?
A60366Do you think the Buyer is not finely cheated of his Mony?
A60366Do''nt you see a Bond of a perpetual and immortal friendship, betwixt us, prepared to your hands?
A60366Does not this seem to be a pretty fetch, for circumventing us and our associates?
A60366For otherwise what made them labour and trouble themselves at the rate they had done?
A60366For should actions be let loose upon them from the Exchequer upon the account of Religion, who can doubt but this would be a direct act of violence?
A60366For supposing a Man dieth, they presently come to their Customers, and ask you, whether you will bestow a fine Pall upon your Friend, or a course one?
A60366For that Reason, therefore, the Emperour expects to hear from you in plain Terms, What you will do with your Books?
A60366For the love of God, what is it that we can do more?
A60366For to what end will it be to enact Laws, which no body will observe, and which any Man may safely violate?
A60366For was he willing it should be Free, to what purpose would these Engagements be?
A60366For what danger can there be in Germany, where all the Princes and Cities acknowledge the Emperor''s Authority?
A60366For when one of the French Cardinals deplored the Danger the See of Rome was in of losing that Kingdom, he replied, What then?
A60366For who can deny his being a Thief, who sells another Man''s Goods for his own, and counterfeit for right?
A60366For who will ingage himself at this rate, especially when it does not yet appear, what is like to be the Order, form, Method of the Council?
A60366For, without this, what kind of History would it be thought which should only represent what one party said?

A61861Wil you neither understand what he saith, nor let your hearts understand what your own tongues answer?
A61861Wil you not understand what the Priest prayeth for you?
A61861Wil you now have the Subjects to govern their King, the Vilains to rule the Gentlemen, and the Servants their Masters?
A61861Will you know how to discern a true Preacher from a False?
A61861With what conscience can you, being but subjects, do to your King that thing, which you would condemne in your servants towards your selves?
A61861With what outrage of Lust was he enflamed?
A61861Would ye be so handled your selves?
A61861Would you not alledg your Pardon, and say, that you ought not to be punished?
A61861Wyse and good men will eschew all uncertaine wordes in every talk and speaking, how much more are they to be avoyded in Christes sacramentes?
A61861You have a Dog, which is your Conscience: Whensoever you shall come to any Sermon, ask your Dog, What he saith unto it?
A61861and Clergy?
A61861aut quid opus nova scribere?
A61861aut quis stabit in loco sancto ejus?
A61861cui plant omnia debto?
A61861for Sorrow) a sure Sign and an evident Token, that some great Evil hanged over this Realm of England?
A61861good simple souls, how be you blinded with the Papists?
A61861hocne etiam tuus Polus potest pati?
A61861may make a Priest, or no?
A61861mirificè cupere promotam doctrinam nostram, quam mundus odit?
A61861my Lawney,( knowing him of old much to favour Priests Matrimony) whether may Priests now have Wives or no?
A61861obedientially out of their jurisdiction, contrary to the Act?
A61861of Rome, or not?
A61861of Romes Lawes?
A61861or Priest, or only appointing to the office be sufficient?
A61861or a Priest may excommunicate?
A61861plene omni malo,& omni fallaciâ, fili diaboli, inimice omnis justitiae, non desinis pervertere vias Domini rectas?
A61861quis erit hujus tragediae tandem exitus?
A61861shall I despair?
A61861what was in your minds to ask such a thing, and so presumptuously to say, that you wil have it?
A61861what would you have me to do?
A61861† Ubi hoc?
A47584( I speak to thee Winchester, more cruell then any Tygre) Shall neither shame, nor fear, nor benefits received, bridle thy Tyrannous cruelty?
A47584After long reasoning, some that were made for the purpose, said, Why may not the Lords vote, and then shew unto the Church whatsoever is done?
A47584After that he had said these words, all the Bishops laughed, and mocked him: When that he beheld their laughing; Laugh ye( said he) my Lords?
A47584After which discourse, a Prayer was said neer his bed where he lay: which being ended, it was asked, If he heard the Prayer?
A47584Alas then, why doubt we thorow this storme to go to Christ?
A47584Alas, Why with- held we the Salt, where manifest compunction did appear?
A47584Although Masse be multiplied in all Quarters of the Realme, Who can stop the Queens Subjects to live of the Queens Religion?
A47584And as concerning your Government, How could or can I envy that?
A47584And do ye not approve this Vocation?
A47584And how long wilt thou suffer this tyrannie of men?
A47584And in the end he said to those that were present, Was not this your Charge to me?
A47584And may it not likewise be true that the Cardinall is so corrupt, that he will admit no Religion which doth not establish the Pope in his kingdome?
A47584And shall not I be principall of them?
A47584And should ye not love your neighbours as your self?
A47584And think ye that God will approve in you, that which he did condemne in others?
A47584And to what purpose hath good Laws and Statutes been established?
A47584And what fruit it hath produced?
A47584And what intended such Traytorous and dissembling Hypocrites by all these and such like crafty sleights and counterfeit conveyance?
A47584And what meanes used God to comfort them in that great extremity?
A47584And what thoughts arose out of their so troubled hearts, during that storm?
A47584And what was this else, then to make of Christ an earthly King?
A47584And who( I pray you) ruled the roste in the Court all this time, by stout courage and proudnesse of stomack, but Northumberland?
A47584And why so?
A47584And will ye deny but that their action was just, and that all those that persecuted them were murtherers before God?
A47584And wilt thou now( O wretched Captive) for all these manifold benefits received, be the cause that England shall not be England?
A47584And yet in how great purity God did establish amongst us his true Religion, as well in Doctrine as in Ceremonies?
A47584And, What Noble- men in company?
A47584And, at what day?
A47584Art thou not ashamed( thou bloody Beast) to betray thy native Countrey, and the liberties of the same?
A47584At length he asketh, Will ye save my life?
A47584At the first sight of the Cardinall, she said, Welcome, my Lord, is not the King dead?
A47584Because you are a man compassed with infirmities, will you not charitably and with lowlinesse of spirit receive admonition of your brethren?
A47584Believest thou that Christ is able to deliver thy soul, and that he will do the same, according to his promise?
A47584Buchanan, David, 1595?-1652?
A47584But Festus willing to gratifie the Iews, said to Paul, Wilt thou go up to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these things in my presence?
A47584But I would learne of you, What fire is it which your Ceremonies do abide?
A47584But alas, who looked, or yet looks to the true cause of our Calamitie?
A47584But from whence( alas) cometh this miserable dispersion of Gods people within this Realme this day, in May 1561?
A47584But here a Court- slave will say, If things be so, there is no absolutenesse in Monarchs and Princes?
A47584But how did Ahab visite God again for his great benefit received?
A47584But let ever that sentence of the Apostle remain in thine heart; What hast thou which thou hast not received?
A47584But let my very enemies now say their conscience, if those may words have not proved true?
A47584But the Provest desired to hear the Queen speak her self; Whereunto it was answered by the King, Provest, know you not that I am King?
A47584But the Question may be asked, Seeing Christ knew before what should happen to Peter, why did he not hinder him from coming from his Boat?
A47584But the second part, where ye alleage that ye offer Christ in remembrance; we ask first, Unto whom do ye offer him?
A47584But then it will be demanded; What, is there no absolutenesse in humane Authority?
A47584But what have you to do( said she) with my marriage?
A47584But what was the Cardinall compelled to confesse at Poysie?)
A47584But what?
A47584But where God is left( as he had plainely renounced him before) what can counsell or judgement availe?
A47584But wherein yet had the Duke and his friends offended?
A47584But who( I pray you) under King Edward, ruled all by counsell and wit?
A47584But why doth she not answer for what purpose did she bring in her new Bands of men of War?
A47584But yet( said she) you have taught the people to receive another Religion then their Princes can allow: And how can that Doctrine be of God?
A47584But( said Lethington) Where ever finde ye any of the Prophets so to have prayed?
A47584But( said Lethington) Why pray ye not for her, without moving any doubt?
A47584By many other testimonies of the Scripture I witnessed to him, and proved that the Messias was come, the which they called Iesus of Nazareth?
A47584Charge was given that all men should light, and go to array in order, for they would fight: Others cried, Against whom will ye fight?
A47584Christs demand and question, asking Peter, Why doubtest thou?
A47584Desirest thou as earnestly the deliverance of thy soul, as Peter did the deliverance of his body?
A47584Did he remove his Idolatry?
A47584Did he send them a legion of Angels to defend and deliver them?
A47584Did he straightway suddenly kill Pharaoh, the great Tyrant?
A47584Do ye not consider, That such a company shall need comfort and provision from time to time?
A47584Do ye seek to be promoted to this Office and charge, for any respect of worldly commodity, riches, or glory?
A47584Do''st thou call upon him without hypocrisie, now in the day of thy trouble?
A47584Do''st thou thirst for his presence, and for the liberty of his Word again?
A47584Fearest thou not to open such a door to all iniquitie, that whole England should be made a common Stewes to Spanyards?
A47584First, Feelest thou thy soul fainting in faith, as Peter felt his body sinke down in the waters?
A47584For how is he thy Saviour, if thou mightst save thy self with thy works?
A47584For in whose default we pray you was the Queen absent from this Realm?
A47584For what was our force?
A47584For while the Bishop in mockage said to Ad ● m Reade of Barskeiming; Reade, beleeve ye that God is in heaven?
A47584Furthermore, why seekedst thou the blood of Thomas Cranmer, of good father Hugh Latimer, and of that most learned and discreet man Doctor Ridley?
A47584Hath God brought you so far forth, that you shall both in souls and bodies every one perish?
A47584Hath she not enforced them to take Bayliffes of her appointment?
A47584Have I not the Queen at my owne devotion( he meant of the mother Mary that now 1566 raigns) Is not France my friend, and I am friend to France?
A47584Have ye heard( said he) any teach, but such as the Pope and his Cardinalls have allowed?
A47584Have ye slain my Lord Cardinall?
A47584He answered; Not as I do the Sacraments seven: Whereat the Bishop thinking to have triumphed, said; Sir, lo, he denies that God is in heaven?
A47584He began on this manner: O Lord, How long shall it be that thy holy Word shall be despised, and men shall not regard their owne salvation?
A47584He demanded, Is that Norman?
A47584Her Uncles will depart, and then shall we rule all at our pleasure: Would not we be also sorry to hurt the Religion, as any of you would be?
A47584Her person was absent, and that to no small grief of our hearts: But were not the States of her Realm assembled in her name?
A47584Honest and indifferent men asked why she did so manifestly violate her promise?
A47584How can he then displease him?
A47584How can it be defended( said Lethington) have you not made a Convocation of the Queens Leiges?
A47584How could I be enemy to your Majesties Person, for delivery whereof, I did more studie, and undertake further, then any of those who now accuseth me?
A47584How long shall we do so?
A47584How should the earth disclose our blood, if it should not bee unjustly spilt?
A47584I think( said Lethington) ye meane of the History of Iehu, What will yee prove thereby?
A47584If Elisha had not been of counsel, That the city should have been kept, Why should the King have more fumed against him, then against others?
A47584If they would honour and obey him as Christs Minister, and comfort and assist him in every thing pertaining to his Charge?
A47584If this was his judgement in so small a matter, what have we to suspect in this our Cause?
A47584If thou have received, why gloriest thou?
A47584If your Majesty demand, Why that now we are more earnest, then we have been heretofore?
A47584Iohn Knox demanded, Did you consent( my Lord) to any part of that Treason?
A47584Iohn Knox demanded, My Lord, Who hath betrayed you?
A47584Is not that Treason?
A47584It was answered, All the godly: Will the Duke, said Lethington?
A47584It was demanded, What could be reprehended in it?
A47584Item, If it be asked, In case the Castle be enemy, Where the Armie shall be placed?
A47584Item, If it be required, How the Munition shall be carried, and oxen furnished to that effect?
A47584Item, If it shall be asked concerning the Castle of Edinburgh, If they will stand friends or not?
A47584Item, If it shall be asked of you, How the Armies shall be furnished with Victuals, and especially the Horse- men?
A47584Item, If it shall be asked of you; At what place our friends and brethren of England shall be met?
A47584Item, If it shall be asked the place and manner of meeting of our folks, or of us and them, in case Sterlin be kept?
A47584Item, If it shall be asked, That their leaden money shall have passage for their necessities?
A47584Item, If it shall be asked, What Pioners shall be had?
A47584Item, If it shall be asked, What manner of way Leith shall be assaulted?
A47584Item, If it shall be asked, Who shall be Lieutenant to the Army of Scotland?
A47584Item, If it shall be enquired, What number our whole Army extends to?
A47584Item, In case it be enquired of all by- lyers and neutrals, and in especiall of the Lord of Huntley, and the North?
A47584Knave, quoth one, What have you to do to meddle with the Scripture?
A47584Lord( said the Queen) What say you to that?
A47584May not he compell me to answer, of his extort power?
A47584May not the like be true this day?
A47584May we not suffer her a little while?
A47584May we( think ye) take the Queens Masse from her?
A47584Mockest thou at Gods threatnings?
A47584Mournest thou for the great abominations that now over- flowes the Realm of England?
A47584No offence,( said he) Have you not written Letters, desiring the brethren from all parts to convene, to Andro Armstrong and Patrick Cranstons?
A47584No, we finde no such thing, but the one and the other, wee finde to have continued and increased in former impiety: But what was the end hereof?
A47584Now( Madame) who shall judge betwixt us, two thus contending?
A47584Now, Madame, if ye shall deny your Duty unto them, who especially crave that ye punish Malefactors; Think ye to receive full Obedience of them?
A47584O how ready would we be to help others, if we knew his goodnesse and gentlenesse towards us?
A47584O thou the eternall, the God of Hosts, how long shalt thou be against the prayer of thy people?
A47584O where is this fervencie now?
A47584Or beleeveth he that I am unprovided to render account of my Doctrine?
A47584Or shall I be condemned before I be heard?
A47584Or shall the presence of a woman cause us to offend God, and to condemne an innocent against our consciences, for the pleasure of any creature?
A47584Or shall those that obey the wicked commandment of those that are placed in Authority, be excusable before God?
A47584Or to what end should he have died for thee, if any works of thine might have saved thee?
A47584Question was had, What should they mean?
A47584Read the Ecclesiasticall Histories, and ye shall finde examples sufficient?
A47584Remembrest thou not that England hath brought thee forth?
A47584Remove him, and who abideth there who carefully will travell in that or any other weighty matter in these parts?
A47584Repinest thou when God requireth obedience?
A47584Shall I name the man?
A47584Shall not the glory of the sons of God follow in the generall Resurrection, when the Son of God shall appear in his glorious Majestie?
A47584Shall there not be four Regents chosen?
A47584Shalt thou not judge the Citie of blood, which hath made Idols?
A47584She said, What stability shall we judge to be in this world?
A47584She will incontinently returne to her Galleyes, and what then shall all Realmes say of us?
A47584Soon after they were called in one by one, and demanded how much they would lend?
A47584That she should have Masse publikely, he affirmed that he would never consent: But to have it secretly in her Chamber, Who could stop her?
A47584The Bishops hereat offended, said, What prating is this?
A47584The Captain said, Will ye not go to the Masse?
A47584The Cardinall wakened with the shouts, asked from his window, What meant that noyse?
A47584The Earle of Huntley said, What a babling foole is this?
A47584The King willing to put an end to further reasoning, said to the said Adam Reade; Wilt thou burn thy bill?
A47584The Master answers again, What shall we do then with the Saints?
A47584The Queen Regent proud of this Victory, burst forth into her blasphemous railing, and said, Where is now John Knox his God?
A47584The Sub- Prior said to him, Father, What say ye?
A47584The fellow replied, To whom should it be said, but to God alone?
A47584The said Master George, as that he was most sharpe of eye and judgement, marked him, and as he came neere, he said; My friend, what would you do?
A47584The sum of all his Sermon was, They say we, should Preach; Why not?
A47584Then Iohn Spencer spake to her of the works of congruo and condigno; to which she answered, Work here, work there; what kinde of working is all this?
A47584Then if it be lawfull to Preach, and heare it Preached in all Tongues; Why should it not be lawfull to reade it, and hear it read in all Tongues?
A47584Then the ravening Wolves turned unto madnesse, and said; Wherefore let we him speak any farther?
A47584There was heard nothing of the Queens part, but, My joyes, my hearts, What ayles you?
A47584These Supplications was presented by divers Gentlemen; the Flatterers of the Court at first stormed, and asked who durst avow it?
A47584Thinke you( said she) That Subjects, having power, may resist their Princes?
A47584This is a good beginning( she said) but know you whereat I laugh?
A47584This was granted to be true of many: But wherein( said Master Iohn Knox) can I be accused?
A47584Thou wilt ask me, What Word?
A47584Thou wilt say ▪ Then maketh it no matter what we do?
A47584Thou wilt say, Shall we then do no good works?
A47584Thou wilt say, Wherefore doth God command us that which is impossible for us?
A47584To betray his Cause when ye have it in your own hands, to establish it as you please?
A47584To whom?
A47584Was David( said I) and Hezekiah Princes of great and godly gifts and experience, abused by crafty Councellors and dissembling Hypocrites?
A47584Was all Leith of the Congregation?
A47584Was not the whole and every member addebted to confesse and acknowledge the benefits of God?
A47584Was there any defection espied before their arrivall?
A47584Was there none amongst you who did foresee what inconveniences might ensue his absence from these parts?
A47584We demand of you, What power& commandment have ye so to do?
A47584Well,( said Lethington) Let us come to the second head?
A47584What Emperour then believed in Christ, that he should serve him in making Laws for godlinesse against impiety?
A47584What Gravity, above age?
A47584What Wisdom, wherein he passed all understanding or expectation of man?
A47584What and I ask drink, Think ye that I sinne?
A47584What assurance have ye this day of your Religion, which the world that day had not of theirs?
A47584What can that hurt us, or our Religion?
A47584What carnall man would not have judged the perswasions of the Prophet most foolish and false?
A47584What danger should I feare?
A47584What felloship is there betwixt Light and darknesse?
A47584What have you to do( said she) with my marriage, or what are you within the Common- wealth?
A47584What is a Saviour?
A47584What is the cause that Winchester and the rest of his pestilent sect, so greedily would have a Spanyard to reign over England?
A47584What is this( said the Queen) methinks you trifle with him: Who gave you Authority to make Convocation of my Lieges?
A47584What must I do that I may be saved?
A47584What number?
A47584What say ye?
A47584What sayest thou of the Masse, speires the Earle of Huntly?
A47584What then( said another) shall we leave to the Bishops and Church- men for to do?
A47584What was I, that I should meddle with such matters?
A47584What was our number?
A47584What was the Commission given unto the Apostles?
A47584What wonder is it then, that a young and innocent King be deceived by craftie, covetous, wicked and ungodly Counsellors?
A47584What, is this to say Christ died for thee?
A47584What?
A47584Where is my Lord Cardinall?
A47584Where is thy righteousnesse, goodnesse and satisfaction?
A47584Wherein( said he) rebells she against God?
A47584Whether may we cast away what we please, and retaine what we please?
A47584While many doubted what the said Iohn should answer, he said unto the Queen, Is it lawfull for me, Madame, to answer for my self?
A47584While such disorder rises more and more in the Army, every man cried aloud ▪ My Lord Lievtenant, What will ye do?
A47584While that saying of the Prophet was compleat, Why hath Nations raged, and people have imagined vanity?
A47584Who is the author of it?
A47584Who lived in that rest, as that he had been crucified with Christ?
A47584Who lived in that rest, as that he had certainly looked for trouble to come upon him?
A47584Who seeth not now, that she in all her doings declareth most manifestly, that under an English name she beareth a Spaniards heart?
A47584Who was most bold to crie Bastard, Bastard?
A47584Who was most frank and ready to destroy Sommerset, and set up Northumberland?
A47584Whom blameth your Majesty( said the other) thereof?
A47584Whom other desirest thou to be thy JUDGE?
A47584Whose Rulers shed blood to the uttermost of their power?
A47584Why doth he deliver us from trouble, but that we should be witnesses unto the world, that he is gracious and mercifull?
A47584Why doth he reaveal his holy will unto us, but that we should obey it?
A47584Will God in this behalf hold you as innocents?
A47584Will ye not acknowledge this your brother for the Minister of Christ Jesus, your Overseer and Pastour?
A47584Will ye not gain- stand and convince the gain- sayers, and the teachers of mens inventions?
A47584Will ye not reverence the Word of God that proceedeth from his mouth?
A47584Will ye not studie to promove the same, as well by your life, as by your Doctrine?
A47584Will ye not then containe your self in all Doctrine within the bounds of this foundation?
A47584Wilt thou have a triall whether the root of faith remaineth with thee or not?
A47584Wilt thou recompence the benefits which thou hast received of that Noble Realm with that ingratitude?
A47584Wilt thou then be without fear of the Power?
A47584Wouldst thou, O Scotland, have a King to raign over thee in justice, equity, and mercy?
A47584Ye interpret the Scriptures( said she) in one manner, and they in another; Whom shall I believe, and who shall be Judge?
A47584Yea, what wisdome or worldly policie was in us, to have brought to any good end so great an enterprise?
A47584You said, What had I to do to speak of your Marriage?
A47584and next by what authority are ye assured of well- doing?
A47584and who appointed and put his Army in order?
A47584as also of the form of Prayer which ye commonly use?
A47584containeth in it self a vehemency; as if he should have said, Whether doubtest thou of my power, or of my promises, or of my good will?
A47584did he correct his Idolatrous wife Iezabel?
A47584how long wilt thou suffer thy Self and thy blessed Evangell to be despised of men?
A47584needeth he any thing of thine, who giveth all things, and is not the poorer?
A47584or else, Why did he not so confirm him in faith, that he should not have doubted?
A47584shall the Laird of Lethington have power to controll us?
A47584that England hath promoted thee to riches, honour and high dignitie?
A47584that England nourished thee?
A47584was it not Shebna?
A47584was not the Congregation under Appointment with her?
A47584was there ever a Minister that gave thanks to God for her Majesties liberalitie towards them?
A47584who assured him of victory?
A47584who but Sobna, who could best dispatch businesses, that the rest of the Councell might Hawk, and Hunt, and take their pleasure?
A47584who was judged to be the soule and life to the Counsell in every matter of weighty importance?
A47584will ye condemne all that my Lord Cardinall and the other Bishops and we have done?
A47584yea, had it not been the part of every man to have studied to keep the possession which he had received?
A47584yea, that they, and the true Religion which they professe, shall in a moment utterly be consumed?
A41644Am I such an one?
A41644And can we contemn such Enjoyments, without abominable Ingratitude?
A41644And may not this be feared by us, who have seen how hard it is to give acceptable counsel in these difficult and dangerous times?
A41644And now what sin can be greater, than to despise the means that are used to cure our bleeding wounds?
A41644And oh, how unspeakably strange is it, that we can forget him, who doth so much to be remembred?
A41644And shall kindness from sinful creatures make such impressions on our hearts, and the abounding goodness of the glorious God be disregarded?
A41644And shall we say, We did well to be proud and profane, to be drunkards and swearers?
A41644And shall we, to affront the Majesty of Heaven, belch out abominable Oaths, and account them as pleasing Ornaments of Language?
A41644And what are those?
A41644And what can be a more dreadful aggravation, than to have cause to say, Mercies are gone, God is departed, Enemies prevail?
A41644And what can be more reasonable, than to give God the glory of that, whereof we have the profit?
A41644And what inward trouble more heavy than this, to finde our hearts condemning of us, and to be clogg''d with the sense of abused Mercies?
A41644And what less canst thou give to God than this?
A41644And what was the design of all this favour?
A41644And who so wicked to conclude, that because God exercises patience, therefore they are no offenders?
A41644And will not the most refractory sinner be ready to come to terms of peace, at the receiving such kindness from the hand of God?
A41644And will not this be a bad exchange, to give our lives for theirs?
A41644Are Pride, Drunkenness, Sensuality, fit Votive Tables for our merciful escapes?
A41644Are not dreadful days approaching to us?
A41644Are not our sins worse than Sodoms, when our mercies are abundantly more than that enjoyed?
A41644Are there no instances to be found of a people preserved, delivered, as often as we, and at last the Writs of destruction were issued forth?
A41644Are they given to us by a new deliverance?
A41644Are we not sinners above all, that have favours beyond any?
A41644Are we now out of danger?
A41644Are we so prone to sin after Deliverance?

A41644Will ye steal, and murder, and say, We are delivered to do all these abominations?
A41644Will you hate me, because I help you?
A41644Will you oppose me, because I appear so often for you?
A41644Will you rebel, because I relieve you?
A41644Will you tell the Lord, you are weary of his Mercies, and will never regard them?
A41644Wilt make nothing of displeasing God, when he gives thee such Mercies as all the men on Earth can not bestow upon thee?
A41644Wilt thou not fear God will tell thee, thy Prayer is an abomination?
A41644Wilt thou stab me?
A41644With what face can we trample on the just and sacred Commands of our merciful God, whilst he smiles upon us with such unmerited favours?
A41644With what terrour may we look on those words?
A41644Would Heathens offer to do such things to their feigned Gods, or offer such affronts unto them, could they but do such favours for them?
A41644Would not this be a heavy Judgment?
A41644Would not this be an unpardonable crime, and a means most infallibly to ruine us?
A41644Would you deliver ● man to destroy you?
A41644Would you have promised these things, and will you not perform them?
A41644Wouldst thou not offend an earthly Friend, and wilt thou offend a heavenly Friend?
A41644You have his sense of danger, if sin was persisted in after such a deliverance; Wouldst thou not consume us?
A41644You whom I have so deliver''d?
A41644You whom I have so often preserved, shall I meet with these dealings from you?
A41644and may not God justly leave us to ruine, and suffer our destruction who deal thus unanswerably with him?
A41644and ruining one another by unhappy Divisions?
A41644and what else is our persistence in sin, but a testimony of our allowance of it?
A41644and what may we thank but our pride and profaneness, our ingratitude and ungodliness, after obliging mercies?
A41644and will not our sins in the abundance of mercies, make him destroy both us and our King?
A41644are we out of his reach, that we fea ● no ruine?
A41644but thus prone are we to abuse goodness, and ready to slight the greatest kindness: how often do we turn our Physick to poison?
A41644but when nothing is successful, mercy gives over; and what but intolerable vengeance will then lye upon us?
A41644can neither God nor man do us any harm, whilst we imagine our selves out of danger?
A41644can we match him with equa ● forces?
A41644can you daunt his unalterable courage?
A41644can you hold the Almighties hands, or lay bonds on his judgments, that they shall not destroy you Will God suffer his creatures to insult ove ● him?
A41644could you bear such undervaluing of kindness from fellow- Creatures?
A41644dare you declare they deserve no obedience?
A41644do we not profess him, and worship him?
A41644filling our Land with the hateful noise of our crying Iniquities, when God hath fill''d it with the blessed sounds of unspeakable Mercies?
A41644have we not been driving God away from us; as weary of his Ordinances, tired with Gospel- proffers, nauseating Mercies, and despising Deliverances?
A41644how do we enjoy mercies, and never improve them?
A41644how do we surfeit with mercies, and wax sick with the kindness of Heaven, and yet say, It shall be well with us?
A41644how then can God from you?
A41644let your Conscience speak, would not this be horrid Blasphemy?
A41644or will not these showers of mercy suddenly ripen it?
A41644shall I not be avenged on such a Nation as this?
A41644shall all these things have no notice taken of them?
A41644shall they all be dis- regarded?
A41644shall we not then have his judgments, and feel his vengeance?
A41644their highest, chiefest, most notorious si ● was at Gilgal; why there?
A41644to have innumerable iniquities crying for judgments, and none to plead for them?
A41644to have invincible enemies opposing of them, and none to assist them?
A41644to have the glorious Gospel continued amongst us?
A41644to mischief his Honour with his Mercies?
A41644we read the wicked prosper; why are they not stopt in their courses?
A41644we weary man, but will ye weary God also?
A41644what displeasing Lust have I unfeignedly left?
A41644what price would they give to be free from pain?
A41644what spiritual Obedience have I closed withal, since I enjoyed this unspeakable Mercy?
A41644when shall it ● nce be?
A41644when that Embassador that was wo nt to prevail for a gracious Treaty, shall be denyed?
A41644when that omnipotent engine can attract no compassions?
A41644when that successful friend shall be denyed admittance to the Court of Heaven?
A41644where shall we have supplies, if our former store- house be shut up?
A41644which of us hath not suffered Divine Favours to slip out of our minds?
A41644whither can we turn, when he turneth away our prayers?
A41644why should it not be burnt?
A41644will not the vials of wrath be unspeakably full, and the storm of vengeance most horrible, which hath been so long in gathering?
A41644will this always continue?
A41644will you say''t is not worth while to leave sinning for these?
A41644— Seeing thou hast given us such a deliverance as this, should we again break thy commandment?
A41644— Wouldst not thou be angry with us till thou hadst consumed us, so that there should be no remnant nor escaping?
A41644— Wouldst thou not be angry with us till thou hadst consumed us?
A41644〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 parcam: how shall I spare thee any longer?
A33380Aaron and all the High- Preists who succeeded him, were not they?
A33380Abraham, the Father of the Faithful, as the Scripture calls him; was not he Married?
A33380After all that, who can say that our Fathers could yet with any shadow of Reason hope for a Reformation on the part of the Popes and the Prelats?
A33380And as for the rest, whether Stephen had in effect Excommunicated Saint Cyprian, or whether he had meerly threatned it, what is that to our Question?
A33380And does not the History of Job introduce him as appearing before the Throne of God, to render the Piety of that Holy- man suspected?
A33380And has not the sixth General Council condemned Pope Honorius as a Monothelite Heretick, with Sergius Patriaerch of Constantinople, and some others?
A33380And if they did it without any right, and against their duty, into what Labyrinths we cast you?
A33380And in how many points does not the Church of Rome find it self to differ at this day from them?
A33380And might not the same thing fall out according to the pleasure and interest that the Pastors might take to see them establish''t?
A33380And upon another occasion, Lord to whom shall we go?
A33380And why ought they not?
A33380And with what Conscience can men remain therein?
A33380And yet how many Inconveniences are there that arise from all those things?
A33380Are there no Jews, nor Pagans, nor Mahometans?
A33380Are there no Profane or Atheistical persons in the World?
A33380Are they Ministers of Jesus Christ?
A33380At the Resurrection then, when men shall arise every one in his own order, what place do you imagine those men will find?
A33380Besides, how do we come to believe there is a God?
A33380But can they answer nothing to these last Reflexions that I have made?
A33380But do not those Merchants pray to God in the form of their Religion, in what Countreys, and with what design soever they are?
A33380But had they any Right to Labour in the Reforming of others?
A33380But he has Taught us nothing of the like Power concerning the Pope and his Councils, he has not said, Who are you that contend against Rome?
A33380But how can any be fully assured that it may not be so at present, otherwise then by the examining of her Doctrine?
A33380But how can he be assur''d of that?
A33380But how can those people have that certainty?
A33380But how can, say they yet further, those good men preserve themselves in the midst of such a Society?
A33380But is it not a very amazing thing, to see a people separate from the Body of those who possess the Offices of the Church?
A33380But say they, Is the Ministry which you have that Antient and perpetual Ministry, that Jesus Christ has established in his Church, or is it a new one?
A33380But their Curate and their Bishop may be mistaken, shall it be then from the Words of the Pope pronounc''d ex Cathedra?
A33380But they will say, Are not you your self guilty of Fallacy, in perpetually supposing, as you do in this dispute, that you have Right at the Bottom?
A33380But they will say, How can it be that Lay- men should make Ecclesiastical persons, and confer a power and an Authority which they have not themselves?
A33380But they will say, How can they be forsaken, without resisting God himself, who has subjected them to them?
A33380But they will say, may not a Church fall into that Condition, and yet for all that be a true Church?
A33380But what Order can they hold in their Assemblies, since they have none to direct them Externally?
A33380But what assurance have we of such a Miracle, or what promise can we find of it in the Scripture?
A33380But what can they do in those Assemblies?
A33380But what does the Name signify?
A33380But what will you say he understands by that Church?
A33380But when he is not, as the Senate of Zurich evidently was not, ought he to abandon all care of the Churches of his State?
A33380But when was it that they might not have seen them appear?
A33380But wherefore then would these Gentlemen have the People to read their Translation, since they are only private Doctors, and not the Church?
A33380But who sees not, that this is precisely to acknowledge the right of that Separation, about which the question at present is?
A33380But who shall tell them what that Universal Consent is?
A33380But why do we use Arguments in a matter, in which experience has sufficiently instructed us?
A33380But, say they, Is not this to introduce a private spirit into the Church, where we all ought to have but one same spirit, which is that of the Church?
A33380But, say they, yet farther, Do you not believe that the Latin Prelates have a more clear light than you?
A33380But, without going so far, is it not true that when Jesus Christ came into the World, he did not find a pure Church upon Earth?
A33380Can he deny that the Priests did not heretofore ordain, as well as the Bishops?
A33380Can they deny that our Kings have not often done the same in their Kingdome?
A33380Could any one have more clearly contradicted the Author of the Prejudices?
A33380Could they have alleadged the Miracles of Jesus and his Apostles?
A33380Could they have complained of the Disorders and Corruptions that then reigned in the Jewish Church?
A33380Could they have said that Jesus Christ and his Apostles had an extraordinary Call?
A33380Could they have said that they had known out of the Scripture, out of Moses and the Prophets, that Jesus was the true Messiah?
A33380Did not all that give a fair hope of a Reformation?
A33380Did they not in that, sin against that respect which they owed to their Prelats, and that Charity which they owed to their Brethren?
A33380Do not you know that we have all the Laws shut up within our own Breast?
A33380Do you demand Miracles?
A33380Do you require Temporal Prosperity?
A33380Does not he know how to exaggerate our sins, and strongly to oppose our vain Excuses?
A33380For I pray tell me what could any one have done better?
A33380For he who sayes, Is it because we hold and follow that Doctrine?
A33380For how can any man rationally determine himself, upon a point of that weight, without consulting the first and the most Antient piece of Tradition?
A33380For how could they otherwise discern those Miracles of the false Prophets, but by examining their words?
A33380For she has a Soveraign Authority over the Faith of her Children, a priviledge, that she can never err, and promises of a perpetual visibility?
A33380For they demand of us whether it was Ordinary or Extraordinary?
A33380For what could they have said, to which those others might not immediately have repli''d by the meer application of that Principle?
A33380For what were all those things but just consequences of that Principle?
A33380For what will they say to the Schisms that fell out so frequently in the Latin Church through the concurrence of Anti- Popes?
A33380For who knows not what the ninth, tenth, and eleventh Centuries were, not to speak of those that followed them?
A33380For why should he punish those who submitted themselves to their guides, whom they could do no otherwise, then obey?
A33380For why should not every Society have right to say the same thing?
A33380Had not God his Prophets and his Altars yet among them?
A33380Had they not all their Guides, their Priests, those that offered up their Sacrifices, and their high Priests?
A33380Has not the Potter of the Earth power out of one and the same clay to make one Vessel to honour, and another to dishonour?
A33380Have they a Revelation, an immediate Illumination that instructs them?
A33380How can you be the same Church?
A33380How can your Ministers be Successours to those who were at that time Bishops, Arch- Bishops, Cardinals, Patriarchs, and Popes?
A33380How could a people that ought themselves to undo the false prepossessions, with which they had been imbued, serve for the Rule of a Reformation?
A33380How could any know those Impostors and those Hypocrites, who come in Sheeps cloathing but inwardly are ravening Wolves?
A33380How could it be possible, that during such gloomy times, Religion, Faith and Worship, should be preserved without any alteration?
A33380How many of our Judges are there, who Judge us every day, without our finding any inconvenience or ill in it?
A33380How many times is that Obedience, that Respect and that Submission recommended to Children to give to their Fathers, in the Scriptures?
A33380How then are the Actions of the Ministry necessary?
A33380How then ought we to be Christians?
A33380How then, can any one say the True Church is always Visible, and always discernable to all men?
A33380I see it, but who told him, That they did it by vertue of a general Law that forbad Bishops to be Married?
A33380If any demand of us what is that perpetual Voice that we ascribe to them?
A33380If he said to him, Feed my sheep, did he not say to all in common, Go, and teach all Nations?
A33380If he said to him, Strengthen thy Brethren, is it not a common duty, not only to the Apostles, but to all the Faithful?
A33380If then they have called the Father of the Family Beelzebub, what will they not say of his Servants?
A33380If you look on those of Berea as being yet Jews, had they not their ordinary Pastors who had before condemned Jesus Christ, and all his Doctrine?
A33380If, say they, it be possible for the Church to err, why do we call it holy, as we do in the Creed; I believe the Holy Catholick Church?
A33380Indeed into what errours and superstitions did not those Churches fall?
A33380Is it a Negative or a Positive Worship?
A33380Is it because that the Church has bid us do so?
A33380Is it because the Church tells us so?
A33380Is it because they have recommended those Books to posterity?
A33380Is it because those Americans before these last Ages were not men, or is it because they were not bound to work out their own Salvation?
A33380Is it because we hold and follow that Doctrine?
A33380Is it necessary then that we should doubt whether there be a God or not?
A33380Is it not written, That the New Jerusalem has twelve foundations, wherein the names of the twelve Apostles of the Lamb are written?
A33380Is it simply a customary Worship, which consists in making use of those representations to excite their Piety, by the remembrance of things past?
A33380Is it that the Scripture in that ascribes to their Fathers an Infallibility?
A33380Is it that the same that they give to those they represent, should be communicated to the Image as well as the Original?
A33380Is it therefore after that manner that he would have us believe Transubstantiation, the Real presence, Purgatory, The Sacrifice of the Mass?
A33380Is it, sayes he, that the Traditors have composed Books, to shew, that we ought to do, or imitate their action?
A33380Is it, that their Christianity was from the beginning, different from that of the Latin''s?
A33380Is not the Devil called in Scripture, The Accuser of the Faithful?
A33380Is not this to condemn that which the Scripture praises?
A33380Isaac, Jacob, and the twelve Patriarchs who founded the Church of Israel, were not they?
A33380It is not very natural that those sorts of pretences should come in to the succours of a burthened Conscience?
A33380It is therefore this Church of which he means to speak?
A33380May he not err in approving those things which he ought not to approve, and in taking for Infallible a Council, which was really deceived?
A33380May not the Devil speak Truths in Accusing us?
A33380Moses the deliverer of the Antient People, by whom God gave his Law, and by whom he had wrought so many Miracles, was not he?
A33380Must Injustice needs Triumph over Justice, and Error over Truth?
A33380Must we learn it from that Tradition it self?
A33380Must we never be certain, because our Eyes deceive us somtimes, and because we are not Infallible?
A33380My Tears have been my meat Day and Night, while they say unto me, Where is now thy God?
A33380Or to speak better, was there nothing that could any ways stagger them, or hold the minds of all honest men in suspence, for so much as one moment?
A33380Pelagius his Successor received his Ordination at the hands of two Bishops and a Priest of Ostia named Andrew?
A33380Quid si novella aliqua contagio non jam portiunculam, sed totam pariter Ecclesiam commaculare conetur?
A33380Saint Paul has said indeed, Who art thou O man that repliest against God?
A33380Shall it be the Scripture that must give Testimony to that Tradition?
A33380Shall the thing formed, say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?
A33380Should they have it from the Scripture?
A33380Should we then have nothing of certainty in that matter?
A33380Since immediately after he adds, Is it that the Traditors have instituted some new Sacraments, or some new Baptism?
A33380Suppose we, that we ought to Judge of a Reformation by the persons that make it, what may not be said against this here?
A33380Tell me I pray yet once more, whether the Jew had not had some Reason of his side?
A33380Tell me I pray, whether that discourse would have been very proper for the Conversion of that Jew?
A33380Tell us what means of Unity would you have beyond that, to hinder men from dividing themselves?
A33380That he said to him alone, When thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren, because that he alone had given a sad experience of humane weakness?
A33380That there is none that could say to him, why dost thou do that?
A33380Therefore God said to the wicked in Isaiah, When you come to appear- before me, who has required this at your hands to tread my Courts?
A33380They demand of us who our Reformers were?
A33380This Du Prat, was he not as great a Prelate, as a S. Hilary of Poictiers, a S. Martin of Tours, a S. German of Auxerre, and as a S. Lupus of Troye?
A33380To what purpose are all these goings about?
A33380To whom should we go?
A33380Was Paul crucified for you, or were you baptized in the name of Paul?
A33380Was there any thing in the World of greater concernment then those things which I have set down?
A33380Were they not all united in one Religious Society?
A33380What Bishop have we now a days that Preaches, or has any care of the Souls committed to him?
A33380What Bishop is there, adds he, who does not more love to be a rich Lord and Honoured in the World, then to help the poor?
A33380What can any find to blame in all that?
A33380What can be said, more weighty?
A33380What can the Author of the Prejudices say to defend himself from this Manifest Contradiction which he discovers between him and his Colleague?
A33380What can they answer to that?
A33380What could our Fathers say to that Divine power that the Flatterers of the Popes attributed to them?
A33380What could our Fathers say to that Simony which was every where openly exercised in the Church of Rome in all things?
A33380What could our Fathers say to those strange Declarations of some Popes?
A33380What could our Fathers think of such a dreadful confusion, which they knew not how to undo, unless by supposing a perpetual Miracle?
A33380What does he then desire I should do?
A33380What does that signifie?
A33380What is it that the Author of the Prejudices can blame in that Conduct?
A33380What is there extraordinary in all that?
A33380What is there here that may deserve any blame?
A33380What is there in Heaven above an Angel?
A33380What is there in all that, that may not be the Motion of a good Conscience?
A33380What is there in the Church beyond an Anathema?
A33380What means the Apostle, sayes he, by these words, lest Satan should get an advantage over us, for we are not ignorant of his devices?
A33380What might not those unbelievers have said against those who were Converted?
A33380What need we to do more to set down this truth in its full evidence, and to give the Author of the Prejudices entire satisfaction?
A33380What ought we to do, sayes he, when some new contagion endeavours to infect not one part only, but the whole Body of the Church in general?
A33380What principle of Unity would they give us, to settle all in the same thoughts, in that search which they should make of the true Church?
A33380What remains but that the Man of sin, the Son of Perdition should be Revealed?
A33380What then can they look for?
A33380What then is the Visibility of the True Church as to us?
A33380What therefore is this Church?
A33380What was there in all that that might not come from the Justice and Prudence of a Senate?
A33380What will become of Judges, Magistrates, Tradesmen, Labourers, Souldiers, Women, Children, who have as yet a very weak Judgment?
A33380What will become of the blind who know not how to Read?
A33380What will become of those who do not understand so much as any of the Languages into the which the Bible is Translated?
A33380What will become of those who have no understanding, nor any readiness of mind?
A33380What will the Authour of the Prejudices answer to them?
A33380What would become of the Christian Church, what would become of you your selves?
A33380Whence therefore shall we know what this Church is?
A33380Where is the place where Jesus Christ should dwell?
A33380Where now a dayes shall we find a Church that worships Jesus Christ with liberty?
A33380Where was there any thing more Magnificent then their Temples, and more splendid then their Solemnities?
A33380Wherefore did S. Paul say to them; Is Christ divided?
A33380Wherefore did they disturb the publick peace by their Tumults?
A33380Wherefore then had they recourse to the Scriptures?
A33380Whether he believes that their Assemblies were Unlawfull?
A33380Whether he believes that they had done better to have remained in the same Communion with Hereticks, then in withdrawing from them?
A33380Who can assure us that they were not sometimes deceived in taking for the general Belief or Practise of the Church, those things which were not so?
A33380Who can deny that an Excommunication contrary to the Glory of God, to the good of the Church, and to the Salvation of men, should not not be Null?
A33380Who can deny that such a man holds the Truth under a General Idea?
A33380Who can doubt it?
A33380Who can doubt, but that these things well known and well practised, as we have laid them down, are not sufficient to the Salvation of the most simple?
A33380Who can read without some Commotion, that which Innocent the Third has wrote?
A33380Who can say Justly in so great a Confusion, which this is Apostolical, and this is not so?
A33380Who can warrant that the many Books that are lost were not in very many points contrary to those that are extant?
A33380Who is it that sees not what a great prejudice this was against a Religion that taught such things, and so solemnly enjoyned them to be practised?
A33380Who sees not that that Infallibility, comes not in at all to the purpose in that close of the Discourse?
A33380Who sees not the absurdity of this answer?
A33380Who shall secure us that the Lain Church herself does not deceeive her self in the discerning that she makes of the Tenets of Religion?
A33380Why did not they trust them, why did they yet farther compare their words with the Scripture?
A33380Why did the Apostles sollicit the Jews to embrace their Doctrine, when they could not so much as hear them without being criminal?
A33380Why did they divulge by their out- cries the Judgment which they made of the Tenets and Customs of their Church?
A33380Why must it not be so in Tradition also?
A33380Will he say that in order to the Scriptures Instructing one, the Sence of the Church ought to be added to it?
A33380Will he say that the Scripture ought to be joined with Tradition, and that without Tradition it can not give a perfect Instruction?
A33380Will he say, That the advantage that the Christian Religion has over all other Religions is most clear and manifest?
A33380Will he say, that the Scripture is in truth a good means for the Instruction of men; but that it is so, only with the Interpretations of the Fathers?
A33380Will they charge their Writing and their Letters to the people with Forgeries and Subornations?
A33380Will they go to seek it in the Practises and Customs of the People?
A33380Will they justifie their being Deposed, their Banishments, the Persecutions which they so constantly suffered?
A33380Will they look for it then from the voice of their Curate, or from that of their Bishop?
A33380Will they say that all those Reformers wrought miracles, to Authorise their Calls?
A33380Will they say, that they were the Ecclesiasties themselves who laboured in those Reformations?
A33380With what Conscience can they decide the points of the Faith, and propose them to be believed as points of a Divine Faith?
A33380With what Conscience can they retain men in their Dependance?
A33380With what Conscience therefore can they exercise their Authority?
A33380Would it not be very unjust to bind men under so great a penalty to consent to things that are uncertain, and which may be false?
A33380Would you have Magnificence?
A33380Would you have Unity?
A33380Would you have the consent of many people?
A33380Would you seek for Antiquity?
A33380and what Call they had for so Great a Work?
A33380and whether that Maxim of the Authour of Prejudices is not far more destructive of the Interests of Christianity than can be easily conceived?
A33380by what Spirit they would have every one know and rest assured that the Latin Church is the True Church of Jesus Christ?
A33380by what Spirit they would have the Faithful chuse that side where they should refer themselves to their Pastors?
A33380from whence they came?
A33380has that any Retroactive vertue, and can that change the state of a thing already past?
A33380how could they re- establish themselves?
A33380how many Pharisees who have boasted of their righteousness, while their Doctrine was a Leaven, whereof great heed was to be taken?
A33380how was it restored to them?
A33380is it not elsewhere written, That we are built upon the foundations of the Apostles and Prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner- stone?
A33380it consists in examining, whether it be true, that God has made her the Mistress of all other Churches?
A33380one approved by his works and his Learning, and any one who is not either a Child, or Worldly or Ignorant of spiritual things?
A33380or is it because the Latin Church had some peculiar priviledges beyond all others?
A33380or is it meant only of such Relative Worship that the Image should have no part of it, or if has any part, what is it?
A33380should we be always in doubt, under a pretence that our Light might deceive us?
A33380they are all but so many meer private men, and what Right have those private men to gather Assemblies?
A33380whether there is any particular order that binds us indispensably to her?
A67906All confess the Sun to be a most noble Being: but will any one that is wise therefore think it fit that every thing should be a Sun?
A67906And are you come from the grave to revive those who were ready to die of grief for your Death?
A67906And for this Orexis which you talk of so passionately, did I ever take her otherwise then as she was commended for a faithful servant?
A67906And must I pity them?
A67906And was I, said the wofull Abulus, the only Instrument which this Devilish Woman could single out for her last act of Villany?
A67906And why not now?
A67906And you, Heavenly Romans, have done well,( have you not?)
A67906Are not all fair things, by the nature of their Being, amiable?
A67906Are not these Pammaelaenians blind enough, unlesse thou dost make them such incurably?
A67906Are not those Books which thou undervaluest the sacred Repositories where the Riches of Wisdom are secured against Oblivion?
A67906Are not those Tongues against which thou speakest, those honorable Interpreters by which we enjoy the Experience and Friendship of forreign Nations?
A67906Are some lame Velleities a vertuous pursuit of the Chief Good?
A67906Are these intolerable pains the price of our Sins?
A67906Are you not Rich enough already?
A67906Are you so evil, that you are offended because God is good?
A67906Are you so maliciously devilish as to make sport with the Infelicities of others, which are in a great measure due to your Faults?
A67906As to you, Philothea and Euergesia, an unparallel''d Paire of Vertuous Sisters, in what words shall I present my particular Thanks?
A67906At you, replied Euphranor, who make such a silly Question: when every thing which I see is ridiculous, do you demand what I laugh at?
A67906But as it hath been said of old, replied Pasenantius, why may we not think that Panick fear brought in this terrible Notion of a Deity?
A67906But did you see nothing else in my Glass?
A67906But do you know what is understood by Justifying Faith?
A67906But do you think Forzario will accept a Challenge, said Bentivolio?
A67906But do you think it worth your labour?
A67906But doth he acknowledge any such thing as Vertue?
A67906But doth he not sometimes say, quoth Bentivolio, that it is a foolish thing to believe without Reason?
A67906But how can I believe Alethion to be so impious?
A67906But how far short doth Knowledg come of such a Bliss?
A67906But is it a dispraise to a golden Cabbinet that it is not the Jewel?
A67906But is it you, Alethion?
A67906But may I not see my Father first?
A67906But must this piece of his Goodness also be made an Argument against his Providence?
A67906But suppose you be not mistaken, will you prosecute another for not knowing so much as you do?
A67906But they say, quoth Nicomachus, That well- grown Obedience doth wonderfully strengthen Faith: How comes that?
A67906But to what Port shall we steer our Course?
A67906But to what purpose do I speak after this manner?
A67906But what course shall we take?
A67906But what do I talk thus long with such as you are?
A67906But what is that to you, Euphranor?
A67906But what need you be so careful every day?
A67906But what need you do this more then others?
A67906But what preferment doth Knowledg receive by this more then the Honour of an Instrument?
A67906But what then?
A67906But which will they say, Diaporon, that these potent Stars produce these admirable effects, Ignorantly or Knowingly?
A67906But who are they in whose Punishments you do particularly concern your self?
A67906But who shall lay the Foundations upon which it is to be built?
A67906But why do I ask forgiveness who have made my sin unpardonable by destroying him that should have forgiven me?
A67906But why do they say, quoth Nicomachus, that without Faith it is impossible to please him?
A67906But will any rational man give cred''t to those who deny the Being of God, and do not believe what they themselves speak when they say so?
A67906But with what probability can this be affirm''d?
A67906But, Excellent Prince, replied Diaporon, since God could have hindered this Errour, why did he not?
A67906By whose Order, said Apronaeus, have you perform''d this service?
A67906Can I chuse but weep when I behold such Miseries, especially since I look at them as incurable?
A67906Could I not have seen him?
A67906Could you stoop to such lownesse of spirit, as upon such poor grounds so pitifully witnessed to disquiet such a worthy Gentleman?
A67906Coward, if some things have Teeth, you have Hands and Eyes, can you not look to your self?
A67906Crooked Serpent, dost thou think by subtile arguments to wind me out of my way to Blessednesse?
A67906Did I not observe how their over- credulous Fathers cruelly destroyed their innocent Children, and with them cut off the Succession of their Families?
A67906Did I not pity the misfortune of Hermenegildus, and deplore the unhappy death of Mustapha?
A67906Did either of you see his Subjects cut that Glorified Body in bits?
A67906Did not Aristides write his own name in one of the Shells of Proscription, and would have done it in another?
A67906Did not Cicero rejoyce that he was banish''d from Rome?
A67906Did not Phaedra write an Epistle against Hippolytus, and then hang her self?
A67906Did our Saviour ascend into Heaven only Metaphorically?
A67906Did the Hellespont deserve as much to be whipt for breaking the Ships of Xerxes, as a Parricide to suffer Death for Murthering his Father?
A67906Did the World use to grumble at the Charge of their Sacrifices, when God requir''d only a Beast for a Man?
A67906Do you desire to be regarded who speak contemptibly of that Divine Prophet?
A67906Do you mean to open Pandora''s Box again?
A67906Do you not still condemn such as you do not like for Sinners, that so they may be guilty of the miseries with which you threaten them?
A67906Do you perceive that the Beauty vvhich you so extremely admired vvas a borrovved thing?
A67906Do you tell me of the peoples Affections?
A67906Do you think God is no God, and that there is no Judgment?
A67906Do you think that we are oblig''d to esteem you a Prophet, because you talk of Revelations?
A67906Do you think then that they are not punish''d?
A67906Do you think they are so highly privileg''d in their prosperity?
A67906Do you think, quoth Nicomachus, that a firm belief of God''s Truth and a Confidence in his Good will are separated from Good works or from each other?
A67906Dost not thou know that Ignorance is the Blindness of the Soul, which for want of Knowledge is but a Lanthorn without a Candle?
A67906Dost thou impotently long for a Crown?
A67906Dost thou insult over the 〈 ◊ 〉 of Fooles, and under pretence of Assistance plunge them deeper into the pit of darkness?
A67906Dost thou not see how these Doctrines are confuted by the Practice of all the world?
A67906Dost thou take away the Son as a Traitor, who is the only Bulwark which my Father hath left against treasonable Attempts?
A67906Dost thou teach me the way to hate by remitting my present affection?
A67906Dost thou think it such a glorious Pleasure to govern others?
A67906Doth not Cunning crook it self to insinuate pleasing harms?
A67906Doth not every one acknowledg that besides other Incapacities, there is nothing more Injust then a Fool?
A67906Doth not this help the Reader confin''d at home to travaile abroad, and enlarge his Mind with the view of other Countries?
A67906Doth not this lengthen the brevity of our short life with the Knowledg of many Ages?
A67906Doth nothing recreate but what is fabulous?
A67906Etiam 〈 ◊ 〉 vobis in animo est, 〈 ◊ 〉 sciatis Priapi 〈 ◊ 〉 pervigilium deberi?
A67906For can he truly be said to be Reconcil''d, who not only was never angry, but whose Divine Nature is utterly incapable of such a low Passion?
A67906For what Prince had ever power to enact such a constitution?
A67906For what serve these, said I, good Antilegon?
A67906For, why should men endeavour to be better then their Gods?
A67906Good Lord, quoth Panaretus, how small a Benison contents these people?
A67906Good mens Hopes are weaken''d, and they are ready to say, If God neglect his servants, why should they worship him?
A67906Had I not read the History of Hippolytus?
A67906Had ill Fortune no other time but this assign''d to act her part?
A67906Hath God commanded us any thing but that which is Good?
A67906Hath he forbidden us any thing but that which doth us hurt?
A67906Hath she offended you?
A67906Have not some Vicious Persons sought Refuge from thinking in perpetual Drunkenness?
A67906Have you consider''d the Nature of things, and do not remember that no Age brings forth many Wise men?
A67906Have you heard that too?
A67906Have you heard that?
A67906Have you seen your self indeed, and begin to knovv the frame of your constitution?
A67906He knows when it is fit to punish the Impenitent; and if they sin longer, have they not suffered a great part of their Misery?
A67906He was Charged with sin, but did that make him Guilty?
A67906He which expects any thing of God, supposeth him Faithful, or else why doth he trust him?
A67906Here Diaporon interrupting his friend, replied, God forgive you this irreverent discourse, Apronaeus; will you never leave this Impious humour?
A67906Hieromimus, What can you hope to make of the Mystery of the Gospel, when you have rendred the History contemptible?
A67906His Patients( shall I call them, or his Guests?)
A67906How are they taken with pleasure and sorrow for the good and bad success of the Romantick Lovers?
A67906How came you to be thus soft?
A67906How can I forget my Uncle?
A67906How can that be, since you say that he gave this Anaxanacton, his dear Son, as a Ransome for Men, and so make him the Purchaser?
A67906How can they hope to receive a Crown, which never did any thing worthy of it?
A67906How comes it to pass, quoth Nicomachus, that Obedience is sometimes included in the signification of Faith?
A67906How could she love him too much, who thought he did never love Theosebius enough?
A67906How could they doe less?
A67906How could they have made use of the Divine Name, and by it put an awe upon people, but that they were acquainted with it and dreaded it before?
A67906How disconsolately have I seen poor Tentations sneak away after Love had mortified their vain hopes with smart denyals?
A67906How disdainfully hath it repuls''d other Loves, when they have been so bold as to make unworthy offers?
A67906How do you prove that to be lawful?
A67906How easily can he who fram''d all things out of Nothing, make the Womb of a Virgin pregnant without the Contact of two prolifick Sexes?
A67906How foolish have I been?
A67906How is every grain of Contentment which we are allow''d in this World blended with a much greater quantity of Sorrow?
A67906How justly shall Posterity forget him quite, or remember him with disgrace, who would have had it impossible to have been remembred at all?
A67906How many Fooleries and Lies must be put together to supply the want of Plain- heartednesse, which when all is done can not effect it?
A67906How passionately are they delighted with the Description of a Castle built in the aire?
A67906How ravish''d upon the conceit of Beauties which owe themselves only to the paint which came out of the Poets Ink- pot?
A67906How shall God obtain such a Dominion over that which he did not make?
A67906How shall I reckon the particulars that constitute her present Felicity?
A67906How short are those measures by which we limit thy Power and Goodness?
A67906How should they look upon Humane Life otherwise then as a desperate Case, seeing it plung''d in a gulf of endless Sorrow?
A67906How slow they come?
A67906How small is the number of these obstinate dissenters in comparison of those who assert us this great Truth?
A67906How unsatisfied are they till the End of a paper Combate?
A67906How vain is the Trust which is repos''d in Mortal men, when the best Assurances of Humane Faith are only fairer Masks of Perfidiousness?
A67906How vainly have I ador''d thee as a Divine thing, whenas thou art nothing but Words and the Slave of Fortune?
A67906How, said Antitheus, with a great Consternation in his looks, is Alethion got out of our hands?
A67906However God did never intend that we should adore his work instead of Him; and what greater Adoration then to court it as our Happiness?
A67906I beseech you, Philalethes, said Bentivolio, what hath he reveal''d concerning Divinity?
A67906I confess I wonder at this as much as the other; for to whom should this Price be paid?
A67906I perceive, quoth Nicomachus, that you are very careful about Good works, why will not a naked Faith content you?
A67906If Hypocrites do not obey it as they should, will you convert them with Blasphemy?
A67906If I had convinced him of wickedness, would not his Repentance have given me Satisfaction?
A67906If Sinners be well, what makes them use so many Arts to palliate their sickness?
A67906If any Curious Reader ask, But why all this?
A67906If he had assured me of his Innocence, would it not have saved us both?
A67906If he worsted us, by what means might we be able to retreat in order?
A67906If it be not our Portion, to what end was it created?
A67906If it be, why do you discourage them from attempting to go over, whilst you sit weeping upon the Bank?
A67906If some be blind, or deaf, or want any usual member of the body, will they make us believe that those defects are not Monstrous and Irregular?
A67906If some happen to be struck sooner, it is but as Thunderbolts fall, by chance: And who can imagine but they do?
A67906If the Jews gave not credit to their Eyes, why may not the Gentiles disbelieve their Ears?
A67906If the floud be not passable, why do you swell it higher with your Tears?
A67906If they be, what cause is there of Anger?
A67906If they say that some Particular Nature made all the rest; which is it?
A67906If those mischiefs which inevitably await us are too great already, why do you make an addition of this voluntary Torment?
A67906If we had the better of him, how might we make the best improvement of the Victory in a pursuit?
A67906If wicked Souls deny it in their Works, will you overturn it in Words?
A67906If you judge them out of their Wits, doth either of you think to appear Wise among so many Mad- men?
A67906If you would not forgive it, could you not have order''d a more moderate punishment then to banish her from your company?
A67906In other places I saw some hang down their Heads and Curse their mad Obstinacy, and after a howling manner say, What?
A67906Is Anaxagathus grown so strangely credulous, that a Counterfeit Letter is a better Testimony then so many years Experience?
A67906Is Death so lovely grown, that I should court His drowsie Image in this sleepy sort?
A67906Is Wisdom so difficult?
A67906Is all this true?
A67906Is any person in the world so foolish as to set no other end of his Travaile but that he may be wearied?
A67906Is he not confin''d to a Dunge on dark as Hell?
A67906Is it an Argument against God, that he hath made a creature which can not fight alwayes without weariness?
A67906Is it not one of the naturall faculties of the Soul?
A67906Is it not worthy of a Creatour to overlook those things which he hath made?
A67906Is it to be esteem''d an Indecorum that Beasts are not Men, nor Trees Beasts?
A67906Is it unjust that those who have indispos''d themselves for a happy state, should afterward meet with such things as suit their Disposition?
A67906Is not Folly one of those diseases which Humane Nature is sick of?
A67906Is not God''s acceptance of Christ''s obedient Death the hope of our Pardon?
A67906Is not he the common scoffe of all beholders, because he weares openly the disgraceful badge by which Beasts are known from Men?
A67906Is not our Will a 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 given us to preponderate our powers to such actions as Reason pronounceth good?
A67906Is not the Resurrection of that great Prophet the Confirmation of our Faith in his Doctrine, when he assur''d it with such a Miracle?
A67906Is not the huge Masse of Divine Knowledg divided into many Books, by that means brought unto us from the many parts of the World in cloven Tongues?
A67906Is that a proper signification of his Blessedness, that he hath nothing to doe?
A67906Is that then, quoth Nicomachus, the great End of all your Industry?
A67906Is the want of Eye sight a thing to be applauded?
A67906Is there any more proper entertainment for it then the Conceit and Language of a well- form''d Romance?
A67906Is there no Hope for the Damned?
A67906Is there no joy but laughter?
A67906Is this the formidable Difficulty which threatens this great Article of Faith?
A67906It becoms him to forgive, who hath commanded others to do so; and what He remits, who shall require?
A67906It is likely that Men will acknowledge an Idle thing sitting in Heaven with folded Hands, for a God?
A67906It was almost quite emptied before, nothing but a little quantity of Hope being left in the Bottom; and will you let that out too?
A67906It''s true, Jolly Sinners doe what they can to make the World believe that they feel no such thing; but how is that possible?
A67906Jews or Gentiles?
A67906Madam, said Urania, how came this mishap?
A67906Must He strike just at those Minutes which Sinners point to with the follies of disobedience?
A67906Must blessed Souls leave their repose to inform those concerning Truth, who are such Infidels that they will not believe their Saviour?
A67906Must there be no Providence unless those which sin be presently Condemn''d and immediately Executed?
A67906Now I have nam''d Fire, how can I forbear to mention the Virtue which Almighty Goodness hath prudently bestow''d upon it for our Benefit?
A67906O Lord, for whom shall I give thanks to thee first?
A67906Or can any think themselves good, whilst Vertue is unpleasant?
A67906Or doth that which heightens the price of Vertue, and assures and encreaseth the Reward, disannul our Duty?
A67906Or if he possess''d it, and we were plac''d in this lower Ground, how should we assault him?
A67906Or was it as rationall in that proud Persian to write Letters to Mount Athos, as for Atossa to have reprov''d her Son for that Folly?
A67906Or what can be thought of less use then Hairs, which are despis''d as Excrescencies of Nature?
A67906Our Court is very severe to day, but will it be so alwayes?
A67906Poor Apronaeus, said the Prince smiling, what slight devices art thou constrain''d to use to support a false plea?
A67906Pray what do you make the chief ground of your Belief?
A67906Rather then your Prophesies should fail, who must be the Executioners of your Wrath but your selves?
A67906Say you so?
A67906Shall Fooles compose the Rules of their Government?
A67906Shall I admire these and many other Noble Examples, and not imitate them?
A67906Shall I call that by the false name of Compulsion, when I consent to the design, and make my bodily powers contribute to its execution?
A67906Shall I give you a taste of his Variations by which he hath advanc''d a Philosophical Ignorance?
A67906Shall I not believe my own Eyes?
A67906Shall I not trust my own Judgment, when I see so much cause to doubt the fidelity of such as have the least reason in the world to be unfaithful?
A67906Shall I think those contracted affections worthy of my Best Good, which I may bestow lawfully upon every token that I receive from him?
A67906Shall a man esteem his Duty impossible, because it is easie to sin?
A67906Shall he be so regardful of Trifles, as to weigh them out by scruples in Gold scales?
A67906Shall he partake in the Errours of vulgar Opinions, and trouble himself with the care of making every Good man Rich or Potent?
A67906Shall mad- men make Lawes?
A67906Shall such as understand not their own Interest appoint what is fit to be done as to the concernments of many thousands?
A67906Shall we think well of you who despise the Grace of Heaven which Angels wonder at?
A67906Should nothing be greater, nothing less in the Creation?
A67906Simplicity is at the bottom of all their converse: why should they hide their Hearts from such as love them?
A67906Since he who hath all power in his hands promised Eternal Life, what say his Servants?
A67906Since we hope not, why should we despair?
A67906Since we know this, why should we be astonish''d at the most obstinate Incredulity?
A67906Since you have attain''d a great Perfection, quoth Nicomachus, why do you trouble your self any further?
A67906Some peradventure not altogether satisfied with that which I have said, may reply, What, then is Fancy uselesse?
A67906That Caves reverberate Sounds we know; but do they hear us too, and consider that they doe so?
A67906That fear is needless: who shall reproach you for coming back, but such as peradventure have not gone so far themselves?
A67906That he debas''d Humane Nature, is prov''d already; for what can be more unworthy of a Man, then to use his Reason to make him more perfectly a Beast?
A67906That of Men or Beasts, Sun or Moon?
A67906The Humane Body is a rare Machine: but is it then a blemish upon the Creation, that Frogs have not the same parts and figure?
A67906The Jewish Nation, to whom Anaxanacton made the first offers of Redemption?
A67906They approving his Design; Which way shall we endeavour to prosecute it?
A67906This was Anaxagathus his Happiness; and indeed what greater Felicity is there then to be able to impart Prosperity to many others?
A67906Thou base Jugler, dost thou pretend to tell others their Fortunes, having no other way left to mend thy own?
A67906To God?
A67906To instance only in one or two things: Will you esteem ill- sented Weeds and venemous Plants mischievous, because they are not good for ordinary food?
A67906To what other Cause should we ascribe the Difference of Sexes?
A67906To what purpose dost thou believe that vain Distinction of Vertue and Vice, and meditate upon those useless notions of Reward and Punishment?
A67906To what purpose should a man for so poor a gain as a sick dullness, endeavour to eate as much as he can?
A67906To what purpose 〈 ◊ 〉 we talk of looking towards God?
A67906VVould you confine him to your petty Conversation who is design''d to the Service of one of the greatest Princes in the VVorld?
A67906Was it not esteem''d a Favour to the Persians, when their Emperour commanded only their Turbans to be beaten?
A67906Well, but is it not in the power of Divine Prudence to appoint a neighbouring Enomy to infest us at set times?
A67906Were any of them made to no purpose?
A67906Were you at Supper in Heaven, Bellarmo, or you Therulus?
A67906What Blind man have you cur''d with a Word?
A67906What Lame man have you 〈 ◊ 〉 to the use of his feet by commanding him to walk?

A67906What better thing doe they who spend their time between the Comb and the Glasse?
A67906What dost thou daily suffer, toss''d upon The dismall billowes of black Acheron?
A67906What else can it mean that I should seek comfort in a vain return, because I have gone farther then others?

A67906What else do they, who spend their time between the Comb and the Glass?
A67906What fears possesse them for the Knight whose part they take?
A67906What hath chang''d your mind?
A67906What have you observ''d?
A67906What he slights, why should I esteem?
A67906What if they be but Shels?
A67906What is Skill in any Mystery but an unprofitable device got with much trouble and expence of time and money?
A67906What is Vertue good for but to raise our lower inclinations, and to overcome the evil spirit which domineers over this wicked world?
A67906What is Youth if it misse the help of right Education?
A67906What is a Commonwealth but an Union of men so fram''d as may most promote the good of all?
A67906What is it barely to discover that there is such a thing as God?
A67906What is more in danger of Disregard then the loose particles of Sand which lie upon the Sea- shore, or Gravel which is trod upon in High- wayes?
A67906What need we take things by the wrong handle, or quarrel with God or his Providence?
A67906What need you so greedily to gnaw that Crust of the Poor, Hope?
A67906What pleasure is''t, for half my time to be In cloudy Mists lost to my self and Thee?
A67906What rare Effects doth it produce in the common Kitchin, in the Chymist''s Shop, and in the Miner''s Fornace?
A67906What scorns doth Truth suffer when she sees her self basely represented upon a ridiculous stage by these Wicked Hypocrites?
A67906What should one that is made to live for ever do with a perishable Estate?
A67906What sort of Glass is that in which you can hope to represent to our Eyes Comparisons, Similitudes and Dissimilitudes?
A67906What strange kind of God must that needs be which doeth nothing?
A67906What strong Expectation have they for the Issue of a doubtfull Design?
A67906What then should I doe?
A67906What think you, my Lords?
A67906What though Apelles struck the Image of Foame upon his Table by an angry cast of his Pencil?
A67906What though God could have granted such a privilege to Man that he should not have been capable of being deceiv''d?
A67906What was the meaning of this Solemnity?
A67906What would you never go alone, Child?
A67906What, Disporon, said the Prince, shall not God have leave to make a man, except he be oblig''d also to tie him hand and foot as soon as he hath done?
A67906What?
A67906What?
A67906What?
A67906What?
A67906What?
A67906What?
A67906What?
A67906What?
A67906What?
A67906When he ask''d what Assumption, they told him that of our Lady; and when the ignorant man demanded, what Lady?
A67906When he put this scruple to them, But what if the Soul should be Immortal?
A67906When men are pleas''d, there is, yes, there is a God: why then, simple Mortals, and not when you are displeas''d too?
