A30522and must not Plow- men now speak of the things of God, if they have experience of them?
A30522and would not you have said he was a Lay- man, a Plow- man, unordained, not fitting to preach, if you had lived in his dayes?
A30522how often have you turned from one way to another?
A30522must not an Herds- man now preach if the Word of the Lord come unto him?
A30522must not the People of God come together to worship the Lord in Spirit and Truth?
A30522or what profit have the People received from you, who are yet in their sins, unturned from them, and not converted to God?
A30522or, will you limit the Holy One to such and such men and wayes?
A30522where will you seek a defence, or where can you be hid?
A30522why will you dye, why will you perish?
A3372133. Who shall lay any thing to the charge of Gods elect?
A3372137. their Hearts were prick''d, they cry out in the midst of the Sermon, Men and Brethren what shall we do?
A33721And is this the Conditional service required?
A33721At how little a hole will self- Righteousness creep in?
A33721But they further say, that this is a conditional service: Why?
A33721Commanded us to believe and pray, what is that?
A33721Doth God mean this, when he bids me believe in Jesus?
A33721How should Hearing of things above our Reason contribute any thing to our believing them?
A33721If Faith and Repentance be thus always joyned together, does it not follow that we are justified by our Repentance as well as by Faith?
A33721Is not this the old, honest, plain down- right notion of believing?
A33721Is this the condition?
A33721Is this the way to quiet and settle the Consciences of poor distressed sinners?
A33721Is this to Preach Christ?
A33721Is this to be raised in power, with our Spirits made perfect?
A33721Life is promised, not simply to believing, but to believing in; in whom?
A33721Must we be set upon a fresh by him?
A33721No, no, after death he hath done with you for ever; he will not dare to look you in the face at the last day: He draw up a charge against you?
A33721The last enemy that shall be destroyed is Death, saith the Apostle; and must we have an after rancounter with the Devil?
A33721There is much Preaching and much Hearing in this City, but what comes on''t?
A33721This should awaken us to Repentance, are there not sins even mong us against the Lord our God?
A33721To Preach the glad Tidings of the Gospel?
A33721To work for Justification is to work for Life, and why should we thus turn the Gospel into the Law?
A33721What do you mean by it?
A33721What does that signifie, how ineffectual is it?
A33721What have we to do to repent of the punishment?
A33721What if we know no more of Justification then is absolutely necessary for our Justification?
A33721What is this Light of Faith, and how does it differ from the Light of Reason?
A33721What, must we work for Life still?
A33721When saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee?
A33721Who is against it?
A33721Who must draw up this charge, and manage this false Indictment?
A33721Why do n''t you do it then?
A33721You believe in Christ, what is the English of that?
A33721You''l say then, is the Law against Repentance?
A33721or thirsty and gave thee drink?
A09417& can there bee any darknesse at noone day, but it must bee wilfull?
A094172. Who must be searched?
A094173. Who must doe it?
A09417Alas, alas, is not that a simple and a silly searche where such blockes as these are, lye vnespyed?
A09417All that God can giue a man in this world, is his Gospell, what then can God giue to bee regarded, whē his Gospell is cōtemned?
A09417But now England, how hast thou requited this kindnesse of the Lord?
A09417But what doth this belong to them alone?
A09417But, if wee will not doe this, then alas, what will follow?
A09417Euen so it is with a nation, or a people: are they taught, and are they worse and worse?
A09417How hard a thing is it to finde an honest, simple, plaine dealing man?
A09417If anie aske, howe, or why this is so?
A09417If then God hath stoode knocking at our heartes fiue and thirtie yeares: it is nowe time to be gone, vnlesse we open presently?
A09417Meanes of knowledge were neuer so plentiful, and yet neuer more grosse ignorance: is not he wilfully blind, who will not open his eyes in the light?
A09417Now wee come to the second generall point here laid downe: that is, whom must wee Search?
A09417Now, how did this people( thus beloued of their God,) requite this his loue, which they had no more deserued, then any other Nation?
A09417O England, how canst thou answere this?
A09417O Search your selues: and thinke it not a matter indifferent to doe, or not to doe it?
A09417O what a cursed sinne is this?
A09417O what is this, that I gaue done against GOD, against his Church, and against my own soule?
A09417Oh alas, what is this, or what can this bee: but a fearefull signe of destruction?
A09417Repent, or else certainely God will take vengeance: But( will mans heart say) is this true?
A09417The third point: Who must search?
A09417This sinne was neuer amongst the Iewes: they indeede regarded it not so as it deserued, but who did euer make a mocke and a scorne of it but England?
A09417Why should wee searche our selues?
A09417Will anie man endure alwayes to bee mocked?
A09417Will anie man endure to stande knocking continuallie?
A09417and is Israel a Nation not worthy to bee beloued?
A09417and shall wee continue so still?
A09417then howe long hath GOD beene mocked?
A09417what are moul- hilles, when such mountains are not seene?
A66765All the Members were one Member( or all alike in form) where were then the Body?
A66765But, who can help this?
A66765Consider also, whether we have not parallel''d the Jews as well in Civil as in Religious misactings, and in some things outgone them?
A66765This is part of Isaiah''s Charge; and wherefore was it recorded but for our warning and instruction?
A66765What can be so abominable?
A66765What can we lose?
A66765What is then meant by the hidden Manna which Christ promised?
A66765Whether our Women be not grown as malepert in justifying their Superstitions, as the Jewish Women were in the dayes of Jeremy?
A66765Whether some of our Nobles( as we call them) have not been Companions of Murderers and Thieves, with Indempnity?
A66765Whether we have not been as guilty by immoderate coveting to lay House to House, and Land to Land, to the occasioning of depopulation?
A66765or how or when will it be better, whilst Oaths are forcibly imposed?
A66765or, to what use is the white Stone with a New Name thereon written, which no man knows but he to whom it is given?
A66765or, why should it be compelled to trust upon what other mens consciences perswade it to believe?
A66765whether we have not set our Thresholds by GOD''s Thresholds, and our Posts by his Posts?
A664372.4, 5. ca n''t you be content without a treasure of wrath?
A66437And that they all go to Heaven that are full of good Expressions on a Sick bed to Death?
A66437Because you ca n''t do that which is not your work, and what you ca n''t, wo n''t you do what is your duty, and what you can?
A66437Ca n''t you repent of your selves?
A66437Can you bear the wrath of God, for numberless transgressions?
A66437Could they that enticed you, do as much for you, or against you, as God could?
A66437Did you never know any that seemed to be as good and religious as they whilst Sick, that after recovery were worse?
A66437God hath been hedging up our wayes with thorns, to stop us in ways of sin; shall any in such a day when God is purging us, be thus Unclean?
A66437God permits this many times by way of retaliation?
A66437God that sees what they do in Secret, sayes, Shall not my Soul be Avenged of such as these?
A66437Ha ●''t God let you alone and poured upon you a Spirit of deep sleep?
A66437Here''s bread, which if you eat of you shall never hunger: Is not bread to the hungry Soul desireable?
A66437How doth it appear, that God will punish them that dye under the guilt of these sins, with Everlasting Damnation?
A66437How many heart distressing troubles was David followed with, after he fell into these sins?
A66437How many who do in this way as it were bid defiance to God?
A66437How shy are they of any company, or society, when but a little of their sin is made known?
A66437If they forsake me, I will cast them off for ever?
A66437If you are so good natured, why do n''t you yield to God in his beseechings and entreaties?
A66437If you were not affected and sinned without remorse, you conclude, God would say, shall not my Soul be avenged on such a Sinner?
A66437May you have a free and full pardon of so many and great sins upon coming?
A66437Or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?
A66437Shall any contemn the Justice of God, and flight his anger?
A66437What excuse will it be for you?
A66437What reason can you give why God should wait any longer on you?
A66437Whither is thy beloved gone, that we may go and seek him with you?
A66437Why should you stay away, when you are ready to perish with hunger?
A66437Will you sin away his help from you?
A66437You have stood before an Earthly Tribunal, and are found guilty; How will you stand before the Tribunal of Christ?
A66437You that have disregarded Gods Counsels, how righteously might God say?
A66437You want Christ for this, how can you else think of going into the holy Heavens?
A66437You will say, what work can I do?
A66437and an acceptable day to the Lord?
A66437and will you run away from God, who only can?
A66437can you do him more Services?
A66437do you think that all that were prophane in Health and Hypocrites in Sickness recover?
A66437given you eyes, that you should not see, nor perceive, nor be converted to this day?
A66437how do those that seemed to be without shame, hang down their heads?
A66437how quick and sudden was God with Ananias and Saphira?
A66437how was he punished in and from his own Children, and how by his Subjects revolting?
A66437to answer for all your sins?
A66437you are stubborn, wilful and stout enough here: How earnestly hath God invited you to come to him?
A26064''T is true, the Man is now troubled; but for what?
A26064And are not these Two Examples sufficient for a Death- bed Repentance?
A26064And having prayed earnestly for him, and commended him to God''s Mercy, Do I then say, Such a one shall be damned?
A26064And how should you get us an Estate?
A26064And if this be your case, where then is your Death- bed Repentance?
A26064And if you dare not thus venture your Life, your Temporal Concern; dare you hazard your Soul, your Eternal Concern?
A26064And is not this sufficient evidence of the sincerity of his Repentance?
A26064And that the Thief upon the Cross was received into Paradise?
A26064And they said, What is that to us?
A26064And will not the Mercy of God accept these Resolutions?
A26064And will not this be accepted as true Repentance?
A26064But are we not told in the Gospel, That the Labourers were rewarded who came into the Vineyard at the Eleventh Hour?
A26064But do I say he shall be saved?
A26064But let us now strictly examine what''s the occasion of all this Consternation?
A26064But supposing he had the greatest Capacity, pray, what time is now left him to perfect so vast a Work?
A26064But the other answering, rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same Condemnation?
A26064But were you thus ready to forgive in the days of your Health and Vigour?
A26064But what a cheat is this, to say he doth release him, when he can keep him no longer?
A26064But what can that man do who is now a dying?
A26064But what is this to the Case of a dying Sinner now under the Gospel?
A26064But what then?
A26064But why should we be so forward to disturb our Pleasures, and neglect our Business as to do it now, since we may Repent hereafter at better leisure?
A26064But, pray, who thanks you for this, To bequeath your Estate when you can keep it no longer?
A26064Can any Man in reason expect that such a Petition will be granted?
A26064Dare you be so uncharitable as to pass the Decree upon him, and say, That he is past hope: There''s no remedy, but he is certainly damned?
A26064Did not you then gratify your Spleen, and take the pleasure of Revenge when it lay in your power?
A26064Did not you then, on all occasions, express your resentments to the utmost?
A26064I am to examine, How far, and in what manner a Sick and Dying Sinner can be able to Repent?
A26064I say, What pretence of comfort can he frame from this Parable, that God will reward him only for Wishings and Wouldings at the last Gasp?
A26064I shall enquire, How far, and in what manner a Sick and Dying Sinner can be able to Repent?
A26064If this was his Case, How could he believe on him, of whom he had not heard?
A26064In such a Case will not he take the Will for the Deed?
A26064Is he sorry that he hath offended God, that he hath transgressed the Laws of so gracious a Majesty?
A26064Is it in your power to do them further mischief?
A26064Is not your Malice now bridled, is not your Rancour limited and restrained?
A26064Let me ask you this short Question: Are you now able to affront them any longer?
A26064Let us now impartially examine, Whether all this will amount to true Repentance?
A26064Let us now strictly examine, Whether, or how far, God will accept such dying Resolutions?
A26064Nay, what must such a wicked man do, who having lived a vicious Life, shall thus happen to be surprized by Death?
A26064Now here is a poor languishing Creature in great distress and trouble, and will not God accept him for the sake of Jesus Christ?
A26064Now will any one pretend that in such a Case as this, there is true Repentance?
A26064O what a wicked Wretch have I been?
A26064Pray, what answer would he make to such Men as these?
A26064Pray, what could be replied in such a Case?
A26064Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be which thou hast provided?
A26064What do I determine in this matter?
A26064What is meant by true Repentance?
A26064What reason is there now to believe you, whilst you protest you do forgive him?
A26064What strange thoughts have Men of God and Heaven?
A26064What then do I resolve?
A26064When the Sentence of Death is passed upon him, and his Physician hath given him over?
A26064Will not this be accepted as true Repentance?
A26064Will you adventure to leap into the Sea, because you read that Jonah was saved from thence?
A26064Will you therefore leave your Husbandry, and expect your Bread from the Clouds?
A26064what Duties can be performed?
A26064who was baptized into Christ, and distinctly instructed in the Doctrine of the Gospel, even from thy Childhood?
A44674And are your minds more delightfully taken up with the things of God than formerly?
A44674And doth not this import enmity in an high degree?
A44674And is it not strange you can not see this?
A44674And is your enmity against God a juster, or more tolerable thing?
A44674And what were they, of whom he says, by the Prophet?
A44674And whence doth this proceed, but from enmity, an alienation of the mind from God?
A44674Are you in mind and spirit more holy, spiritual and serious?
A44674But it is most justly to be said, what profit is it to the Almighty that we call upon him?
A44674But who may not now apprehend a necessity of being regenerate?
A44674Can two walk together, unless they be agreed?
A44674Can you deny that you have lived in great ignorance of God much of your time?
A44674Can you deny you have minds capable of knowing God?
A44674Do not these things together discover an enmity against God, and the ways of God?
A44674Enquire, therefore, what change do you find in your minds?
A44674God charges them, and doth he not know them?
A44674Have you not in you a reflecting power?
A44674How can we lie down in peace in an unreconciled state?
A44674How few are there that say, give me Christ, or I am lost?
A44674If you be God''s Enemy, can he be your Friend?
A44674It would be profane to say, what profit is it to us to call upon the Almighty?
A44674None can reconcile me to God but Christ?
A44674Now consider, whether our disobedience to these two Precepts do not discover great enmity in our Hearts against God?
A44674That the Gospel under which you have lived, hath had little effect upon you, to alter the temper of your Spirits towards him?
A44674That the thoughts of him have been ungratefull, and very little welcome, or pleasant to you?
A44674That you have had little converse with him, little trust, reverence, delight, or expectation plac''d on him as the object?
A44674That you have not been wo nt to concern him in your affairs, to consult him, to desire his concurrence?
A44674That you have not designed the pleasing, or obeying of him in the course of your conversation?
A44674That you have not thought of approving your self to him in your designs and actions, but lived as without him in the world?
A44674That you have usually been thoughtless and unmindfull of him in your ordinary course?
A44674To refuse placing our Treasure, and our Hearts in Heaven, what doth this signify, but aversion, and a disaffected Heart?
A44674What doth this signify, but obstinate, invincible enmity?
A44674What is so near a man, as himself?
A44674What need of such striving, but that there is a great enmity in the minds of People to be conquered and overcome?
A44674What will become of the man that is not reconciled to God?
A44674What will become of thee, if thou diest with such a disaffected mind Godward?
A44674What, to refuse to pray, and pour out our Souls to him in secret?
A44674When men will endure the greatest extremity, rather than apply themselves to God; what doth this resolve into, but enmity against God?
A44674When therefore this is not done, whence is it, but from an enmity of mind?
A44674Whence can this be, but from man''s aversion, and enmity of mind against God?
A44674While the voice of the Gospel of Grace is calling upon you, Return and live; Turn ye, turn ye, why will ye die?
A44674Why are men at that distance from him, who is Goodness, and Grace, and Love it self?
A44674Why else is he called, the heart- searching God?
A44674Why is it?
A44674Why is not Heaven every day in our thoughts?
A44674Why not as well on God, as upon any of those vanities, about which they are commonly employ''d?
A44674Why should not God rule over, and govern his own?
A44674Why will we lose the pleasure of an heavenly life, and exchange it for earthly care, and trouble, or vanity, at the best?
A44674Yet when their very Hearts are such an Hell of wickedness( as what is more hellish than enmity against God?)
A44674and perceive a disaffection to God by all this in your selves?
A44674or without knowing, whether we are reconciled, or not?
A44674that your ignorance was voluntary, having such means of knowing him, as you have had?
A44674what business will this hinder?
A44674when a man goes about his ordinary affairs, will it do any hurt to take God with him?
A02641And shall this glorious Vicar, in the name of Christ, with such honor and superfluity possesse his kingdome in this world?
A02641And what could Joseph( being a Prisoner) more desire of God, but onely his enlargement and deliuerance from thence?
A02641And what more vnfruitfull worke is there, then to embrace false doctrine, and heresie?
A02641But I demand this of these Antichrists; that if they imitate Christ in this, why they do not follow him in humility?
A02641Christ had not where to lay his head, and will not one Pallace suffice the Bishop of Rome?
A02641Christ refused the condition of Regall dignity, being offered, and will not one Crowne content the Bishop of Rome?
A02641Consider also the Apostacies that haue been committed in our dayes, and you shall see, if you can sinde the like to mine?
A02641Did not Aaron speake against his brother Moses?
A02641Did not Peters friends also contend against him, because he went in to men vncircumcised, and did eate with them?
A02641Hath the most mercifull God forgotten to be pittifull; hath he( by reason of his anger) shut vp his compassion?
A02641How vnsearchable are his iudgements, and his wayes past finding out?
A02641I looke to be persecuted, and expect false censures and iudgements to be passed vpon me: but what do I respect them?
A02641If he be with me, who can be against me?
A02641If this be so, how dare the Romish Priestes pronounce Christ himselfe with his Diuinity and Humanity to descend into their hands?
A02641Is he the seruant of seruants that makes such daily boast of his kingdome and authority?
A02641Is he the seruant of seruants, that holdeth his foote forth for Kings and Emperous to kisse, and do reuerence to?
A02641Is he the seruant of seruants, that is carried vpon mens shoulders?
A02641Is he the seruant of seruants, that saith he hath authority from heauen, and the fulnesse of power to make iustice of iniustice?
A02641Is he the seruant of seruants, that saith he is like vnto the Sun, and the Emperour like the Moone?
A02641Is his louing kindnesse withdrawne for euermore?
A02641Is it not enough that he possesseth Italy, vnlesse with his triple Crowne he command the world?
A02641Signatures: A- H⁴(-H4, blank?).
A02641Therefore Dauid that day feared the Lord, and said, How shall the Arke of the Lord come to me?
A02641What could the Mother of Moses desire more, when her Child was put into the Water, but onely that God would preserue it from death?
A02641What is this else( as I say) but to be consecrated to idols, and to superstitious worshipping, and in the end to the deuill himselfe, and damnation?
A02641What shall I doe?
A02641What should I speake of the Synode of Chalcedon?
A02641When a man of credite speaketh, wee beleeue him: how much more then ought we to beleeue the mouth of him that can not lie?
A02641Why art thou abashed,& why doest thou tremble within me?
A02641and of Pardons?
A02641and the other, what penaunce I deserued, or should submit my selfe vnto, to deface the euill which I had committed?
A02641are these: Why dost thou blush and art ashamed to tell thy sinnes?
A02641shall I despaire?
A02641the adoration of images?
A02641the obseruation of Purgatory?
A411089. will God heare his cry when trou ● le commeth upon him Beloved, now Gods patience is troubled, wilt not yu repent?
A41108Art thou so mad, so vaine, so foolish, to promise to thy selfe being an hypocrite, that God will heare thy prayer?
A41108As if he should say, Do you not sée how you are going a pace to confusion ▪ and that the way you take, leadeth unto destruction?
A41108But what is the meaning of all those Scriptures which shew how God doth deliver up men unto the Spirit of guidinesse, and unto the Spirit of slumber?
A41108But, suppose I humble my selfe by fasting and prayer, will not God hear ● hat?
A41108Can the blackmore change his skin, or the Leopard his sports?
A41108Do I now stretch out my hands, and will not they take care to obey me?
A41108Dost thou lie sick upon thy death- bed?
A41108Dost thou refuse to harken to day, and puttest it off untill to morrow?
A41108God bid him stay seven dayes untill Samuel came: Saul stayes full seven dayes within one houre; at last his lust began to bawl: What?
A41108God may feare mens consciences; Doth thy conscience tell thée thou art a luke- warmling, and wilt thou not be reformed?
A41108God will shoot an arrow at them suddenly, their stroke shal be at once, The Lord suddenly shoots a swift arrow at thée?
A41108Hast thou Momus his glasse- window, to looke into Gods secret counsell?
A41108He speaketh interrogatively, as if he should say?
A41108How long yee scorners will you take pleasure in scorning?
A41108I have preached thus and thus long unto you, I have wrote one Epistle to you to reforme those abuses that were among you?
A41108I now call, and will not this man or that woman answer?
A41108Know you not your owne selves, how that Iesus Christ is in you except you be reprobates?
A41108May not a man be called at the eleventh or twelfth houre of the day?
A41108No, no, the day of grace& mercy will have an end?
A41108Now G ● ds Spirit is troubled, wilt not thou obey?
A41108Now Gods justice is troubled wilt not thou relent?
A41108Now Gods word is troubled, wilt thou ● efuse to harken?
A41108O yee foolish, how long will you love foolishnesse?
A41108Secondly, it is an upbraiding( for,) upbraiding thée for thy sinnes: rent thy heart therefore; why?
A41108So it is with God, how many swéet Counsels doth he lose?
A41108So the man that sins this day, how doth he know but that this very dayes worke may bring him to hell?
A41108Stay, sayes his conscience; Why?
A41108The day of grace lasteth alwayes: and doth not the Apostle call the day of life, the day of grace?
A41108The reason is, because Gods patience is in his owne breast; and who can tell how long it will last?
A41108The theife that rob''d this day, how doth he know but this one robery may bring him to the gallows?
A41108Therefore if the Lord swear thou shal ● not, how darest thou?
A41108Therefore if thou refuse this, thou refuseth all; for what knowest thou, but this very day may be thy day?
A41108Was it his offering of sacrifice, and calling upon God by prayer?
A41108Was it his sinne to meddle with the Priests office?
A41108Well?
A41108What contempt of Gods Word?
A41108What is the reason?
A41108What?
A41108and rebell against such a loving Father, that hath loved thée with so much compassion?
A41108canst thou stand on tiptoe, to looke over Gods shoulder, to looke into Gods decrée, to sée how long his patience will last?
A41108do not men come to the Sacrament, and the Sacrament leaves them still in their filthinesse?
A41108do you thinke that God will lose all these, and let them rot upon ye stall, with staying for you?
A41108hast thou a key- hole to looke into Gods treasurie?
A41108he is a patient God?
A41108how canst thou hope o ● think ever to enter into his rest?
A41108how doth wickednesse and prophanenesse stand up into the highest roome, climbe up into the highest chambers?
A41108how many blessed Sermons& holy Sacraments, and Sabbaths, doth he lose?
A41108how many checks of Conscience?
A41108how many days of Grace and motions of his Spirit have béen suandred away in vaine?
A41108how many good spéeches came from him?
A41108how many swéet Exortations?
A41108shall I stay for a Prophet thus long?
A41108was it the breaking of one houres time?
A41108what neglect of Gods Ordinances?
A41108what prophanation of Gods Sabbaths?
A41108what scoffing and deriding of Gods servants?
A41108will God heare his cry?
A41108will you never turne back againe, but damne your souls for ever?
A41108will you still persist in your wickedness,& never have done with your sins?
A41108wilt thou go on in thy sinns against such a patient God?
A5445213 And what is the Touchstone of tryal of all Nations?
A54452And can not you yet read within?
A54452And how can the confession of any Prophets Name, shew thereby that a people is of the Truth?
A54452And what is honour or profit of riches in this life, to be for ever miserable in the life to come?
A54452And whether if a man knows not the good in him to guide him, is not his foot subject to slip, and he to fall?
A54452By what is it that God tryeth the wayes of men?
A54452Did he not fear the Lord, and the Lord repented him of the evil which he had pronounced against them?
A54452Hath thy Nation the Faith of living after death?
A54452He hath shewed thee O man what is good, and what doth the Lord require of thee?
A54452How many signs would ye have?
A54452J. P.( John Perrot), d. 1671?
A54452J. P.( John Perrot), d. 1671?
A54452J. P.( John Perrot), d. 1671?
A54452May I be blamed in all this?
A54452Now I do ask, In what can the truth and true worship of God be rightly holden?
A54452Oh how might the aged solace themselves in the meditation thereof?
A54452Oh what can stand before the brightnesse of the DAY?
A54452Oh why do ye yet in your hearts seek murther?
A54452Or am I faulty to stand against iniquity in the gate, to stop the flood of wrath which is ready to enter in as through a gap?
A54452Or can you say so, and speak truth, whilest you have not that spirit by which the Prophets writ forth the Scriptures?
A54452Or could your Fathers understand the writings of the Prophets, who wickedly persecuted and slew the Prophets?
A54452Or with ten thousand Rivers of oyl?
A54452Shall I give my first borne for my transgression, the fruits of my body, for the sin of my soul?
A54452The Messiah was the promise of God from the beginning, and he was manifest in the flesh in spirit; but how doth he now bruise the Serpents head?
A54452What and how is the world set in mans heart( as saith Solomon) whereby a man can not find out the beginning or the end of the work of God?
A54452Whether would my owning of one Prophet in vertue, before another Prophets life, avail me any thing if I had not received the spirit of the Prophets?
A54452Who then can fathome wisdom to understand that which the natural never saw nor thought of?
A54452Why say and contend ye for more blood?
A54452Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of Rams?
A54452Will you say that you believe all that the Prophets have written?
A54452Yea without a Parable may I not plainly prove all Nations that stumbles, the honest part of thy inquiry?
A54452and are not all Nations living in lying, and swearing, and whoredome, and pride, and envy, and murder, and drunkenness, in the corrupted wayes?
A54452and bow my selfe before the high God?
A54452and can not I reach unto Rome, Pope, and over the darkness and sottishness of all people?
A54452and hath God blessed me with his word, and shewed me his wonders which are coming to pass, and can I hide them from the King?
A54452and how ought a man to follow it to be established in righteousness and in peace to the end?
A54452and how shall any know the good simply as it comes from the Fountain, so as to be plainly distinguishable from that which is but a shew in hypocrisie?
A54452and in what standeth the hope of life everlasting?
A54452and is not this manifest unto thousands?
A54452and the yonng men take pleasure in the exercise of the infinite vertue which is hid therein?
A54452and what is that which they have attained unto, which will lead out of the corrupted wayes?
A54452and what is the good that leads unto the good order of the best part?
A54452and what part in man is that which is the Serpent?
A54452and who are the sons of men that are not in the corrupted wayes?
A54452and who hath felt the power and operation of the other Seed in his heart to bruise the Serpents Head without which there is no Salvation?
A54452doth not Wisdome belong to the mighty, and doth not counsel become the Kings Court, and understanding the chiefest pallaces?
A54452is not all the first in a tottering frame when the glory of the most high breaks forth?
A54452or may I be blamed in wrestling, that blessing may over- spread the length and breadth of thy Dominion?
A54452ought I therefore the more to be cursed by my own Nation, or lesse blessed by thy Nation?
A54452shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves of a year old?
A270424. Who is it but your selves that hath brought you under Gods displeasure?
A270425. Who wounded Conscience, and hath raised all your doubts and fears?
A270426. Who is it but your selves that hath brought you so neer the gulf of misery?
A27042And may I not freely tell you, that God should have the precedencie?
A27042And must not Magistrates as well govern by their lives, as by their Laws?
A27042And now I beseech you all consider; is it not better to Remember your sins on earth, then in hell?
A27042Are death and Judgement matters of less moment?
A27042Are those men likely to take care of the happiness of so many thousands, that will still be so careless of themselves?
A27042Are your sins so small, so venial, so few, that you can find no employment on them for your memories?
A27042Consider the loathsome nature of your sins, and how then can you choose but loath your selves?
A27042Did not he make the Law that doth command it; professing that none shall see his face without it?
A27042Do they loath themselves for all their sins, who loath those that will not do as they?
A27042Do they loath themselves that are readier to justifie all their sins, or at least extenuate them, then humbly confess them?
A27042Do you loath your selves for all this, as being vile in your own eyes, and each man say, What a wretch was I?
A27042Enquire then, whether there be none among you that live a sensual careless life; cloathed with the best, and faring deliciously every day?
A27042For your souls sake enquire now, Is it thus with you?
A27042How carefully would you help the Labourers that are sent to guid men in the holy path?
A27042How confident should I be, that I could convert the most, if this were the Conversion?
A27042How little need should I have had to press it with all this importunity?
A27042How much further think you is it possible, for wicked souls to go in sinning?
A27042How severely would you deal with those, that by making a mock of Godliness, do hinder the salvation of the peoples souls?
A27042If brutish objects be your employment and delight, do I need to tell you what you make your selves?
A27042Is God and Heaven less worth then these?
A27042Is it not the God of Heaven himself that they make a scorn of?
A27042Is not Holiness his image?
A27042Is there none among you that spend your precious time in vanities, that is allowed you to prepare for life eternal?
A27042Is this your duty now, or is it not?
A27042Lest when he plagueth and condemneth you he say, Why persecuted you me?
A27042O that that this Honourable Assembly could know it in some measure, as it shall be shortly known?
A27042O then what Laws would you make against sin?
A27042Or can you expect to be obeyed by others, when you will not obey the God of Heaven and Earth your selves?
A27042Or is the offending of the Eternal God, so slight and safe a thing, as not to need your consideration?
A27042Or shall I think it were uncharitableness not to hope for it?
A27042Or would you have the people to be better then your selves?
A27042Shall I think it were presumption for me to hope for so high a reward for so short a labour?
A27042Shall the thorns and bryers be set in battail against the consuming fire and prevail?
A27042Surely God made not his Laws for nought; nor doth he make such a stir by his Word, and Messengers, and Providences against an harmless thing?
A27042The question is not, whether Bishops or no?
A27042The suffering to the sound in faith is as nothing: for what is the foaming rage of mad men to be regarded?
A27042We have all seen the evils of Liberty to be wanton in Religion: Is it not worse to have Liberty, to deride Religion?
A27042Will you make Laws which you would not have men obey?
A27042You can easily loath an enemy; and who hath been a greater enemy to any of you, then your selves?
A27042and What is it that God would have us do?
A27042and What shall we wish we had done at last?
A27042and endangered your eternall peace?
A27042and how they will look back on all at last?
A27042and to thrust his service into corners, and give him but the odious leavings of the flesh?]
A27042and what judgement it is that they will all be of, in the controversie between the flesh and spirit, at the later end?
A27042and what will be the fruit and end of all their lusts and vanities?
A27042and whether an holy or a sensual life will be sweetest to a dying man?
A27042and whether enow to use it?
A27042before your Physitian, then before your Judge?
A27042but whether Discipline or none?
A27042for your cure, then for your torment?
A27042or have you thus returned with self- loathing to the Lord, and firmly engaged your souls to him at your enterance into a holy life?
A27042to forget thy God, thy soul, thy happiness?
A27042to serve thy flesh?
A27042was it not your sinfull selves?
A27042what a monster of rebellion and ingratitude, to do all this against the Lord of love and mercy?
A27042what an unreasonable self- hating wretch, to do all this against my self?
A27042what have they left but a sting behind them?
A27042why then was fasting, and sack cloth and ashes, the badg of such in ancient times?

A33349And now why tarriest thou?
A33349And shall not Uncircumcision, which is by nature, if it keep the Law, judge thee who by the Letter and Circumcision dost transgress the Law?
A33349Are the Glories of Heaven so inconsiderable?
A33349Are ye so foolish?
A33349Cui vitio obstitisti?
A33349Do we then make void the Law through Faith?
A33349Doth our Baptismal Vow lay no obligation upon us?
A33349For what agreement can there be, between a sensual, spightful, or malicious Soul, and the pure Society of the Spirits of just Men made perfect?
A33349Having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the Flesh?
A33349He that ministreth to you the Spirit, and worketh Miracles among you, doth he it by the works of the Law, or by the hearing of Faith?
A33349He that washeth himself after the touching of a dead Body, if he touch it again, what availeth his washing?
A33349How much less will God accept us, when we are* least fit to serve him, and in those Days wherein we our selves have no Pleasure?
A33349In a word, can we see Men dally with Eternity, and for the sake of a few empty and momentany Gratifications, hazard their everlasting Welfare?
A33349In like manner, what can be more impossible, than for an earthly and wicked Soul, to be made happy by the Vision and Fruition of God?
A33349Is it a light thing to enter into such a Promise solemnly before God and his Church?
A33349Know ye not that so many of us, as were baptized into Jesus Christ, were baptized into his Death?
A33349Nonne ergo ille qui bonitatem sequi debet, si nequitiae praeferat partes, plus peccare videtur, quam is qui deliquit ignorans Dei virtutem?
A33349Offer the Blind for Sacrifice; offer the Lame and Sick; offer it now unto thy Governour; will he be pleased with thee?
A33349Or what doth his humbling profit him?
A33349Or, is the Duty we owe to God so small, that he should accept our coldest and most unwilling Service?
A33349Quam s ● r ● m est tunc videre incipere, cum desinendum est?

A33349Received ye the Spirit by the works of the Law, or by the hearing of Faith?
A33349So is it with a Man that fasteth for his Sins, and goeth again and doeth the same; who will hear his Prayer?
A33349What greater Uncharitableness can a Man possibly be guilty of towards the Soul of his Brother, or what greater Mockery of God?
A33349Will they not be much more inquisitive after the Glories of Earth, and the Gratifications of Sense?

A29096Did he not foresee our falls?
A29096Doe not we all, men in labour, women in travailing with child, and all in death, mortality and misery, even in this life feele the same?
A29096Doth he hate any thing that he made?

A29096Doth not Christ say: When you have done all things that I have commanded you, say: that ye be but unprofitable servants?

A29096If, dearely beloved, his face be so terrible and intollerable for sinners, and the wicked: what think we his hand is?
A29096Is he a changeling?
A29096Is he mutable as a man is: Can he repent him of his gifts?
A29096Is his hand shortned for helping thee?
A29096Is not the anger of a King death?

A29096This thou know''st he did of love, and dost thou think his love is lessened, if thou lament thy sinne?

A07537God did not make that fire for us, much lesse did hee make us for that fire:( make us to damne us?
A07537Hadst thou rather a sicknesse should bring thee to God, than a Sermon?
A07537Hadst thou rather be beholding to a Physician for thy salvation, than to a Preacher?
A07537How often would I have gathered you, and you would not?
A07537If it be demanded whether God could not make a thousand worlds, as good or better than this: it were infidelity to deny it, why?
A07537If possible to any; shall it not be possible to the Almighty, who alone can doe all things?
A07537If then you aske, Could not God by his almightie power have prevented Adams eating the forbidden fruit?
A07537If thou desire profit, Quis utilior bono?

A07537Nor is it said, How often would my Father; but, How often would I have gathered you?
A07537Now what contradiction could it imply, to save this childe, supposing Pharaoh, more than it did to save another; for example, Moses?
A07537Nunquid Deus paravit nobis ignem i ● ● um?

A07537Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet finde fault?

A07537Was it then the humane nature?
A07537What is the reason?
A07537What purpose soever thy Parents or thy Prince have to make thee great: how had all these purposes beene frustrated, if God had not made thee before?

A07537Why doth he hold on to expostulate more sharply with him than heretofore, for that which it is impossible for him to avoid?
A07537Why?
A07537Wilt thou pretend to work in Gods building, and bring no tool ● s, but such as are blunted and broken in the s ● rvice of the world?
A07537Yet should wee say that he hath done all that could be done for them; how chanceth all are not saved?

A31080Again, are we old?
A31080Again, be our condition what it will, this advice is reasonable: Are we in health?
A31080And what great difference is there between this and the greatest worldly state?
A31080And what is more inconsistent with wisedom, than to engage our selves upon making such ineffectual and fruitless wishes?
A31080Are not( in the Psalmist''s accompt) all our years spent as a tale that is told; or, as a Fable, that is acted?
A31080Are we poor or afflicted?
A31080Are we rich and prosperous?
A31080Are we sick?
A31080Art thou young?
A31080By our delay to amend, what do we gain?
A31080Doth it become us to contend, or emulate so much about it?
A31080Doth not every day present experiments of sudden death?
A31080Doth not, seluding hidden decrees, every Man''s life hang upon a thread very slender and frail?

A31080how many precepts to be observed in order thereto?

A31080if we do not renounce felicity( and do we not then renounce our wits?)
A31080in doing so, are we not strangely inconsistent with our selves?
A31080is it not subject to many diseases lurking within, and to a thousand accidents flying about us?

A30118And now he begins to Tremble: Adam, where art thou?
A30118And so with Paul, who tremblingly said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?
A30118And what delight, what content, what pleasure can God take in such men?
A30118And what follows?
A30118And what was the Conclusion?
A30118And why must he make his Arrows sharp, and all that the Heart may with this Sword and these Arrows, he shot, wounded, and made to bleed?
A30118Are any of your Children ill?
A30118But I say, What an amazing thing is this?
A30118But I say, what''s the Reason some so prize what others so despise, since they both stand in need of the same Grace, and Mercy of God in Christ?
A30118But could that heal it, could he not taste, truly taste, or rightly relish this Forgiveness?
A30118But do these People know what they do?
A30118But does the Carnal World covet this, this Spirit, and the blessed Graces of it?
A30118But how came he to be affected with this?
A30118But how doth he take that away, but by a severe Chastising of his Soul for it, until he has made him weary of it?
A30118But now, how shall this man be Reclaimed from this Sin?
A30118But what is this Iniquity?
A30118But what necessity is there, that the Heart must be broken?
A30118But what should a Christian do, when God has broke his heart, to keep it tender?
A30118But what was Paul, but a broken Hearted and a contrite Sinner?
A30118But what''s all this to one that neither sees his Sickness, that sees nothing of a Wound?
A30118But what''s the matter?
A30118But which is the way to make one that is Wild, or a Mad man, Sober?
A30118But why so?
A30118But, Do the Broken in Heart believe this?
A30118But, do they believe, that thus it is with them?
A30118But, do you think, that these People did ever feel the Power and Majesty of the Word of God, to break their Hearts?
A30118But, how now?
A30118But, would he believe it?
A30118Can not a Man be Saved unless his Heart be broken?
A30118Do not I fill Heaven and Earth saith the Lord?
A30118Hath the Lord as great delight in burnt- Offerings and Sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord?
A30118He is indeed the Great Deliverer: But what''s a Deliverer to them that never saw themselves in Bondage, as was said before?
A30118Here is nought but open War, acts of Hostility, and shameful Rebellion on the Sinners side; and what delight can God take in that?

A30118How many beholds are here?
A30118How many strugling fits, had Israel with God in the Wilderness?

A30118How many times are they put in mind of HELL, by reading the Word, by lashes of Conscience; and by some, that go roaring in Despair out of this World?
A30118How many times are they put in mind of the Day of Judgment?
A30118How many times did they declare, that there they feared him not?

A30118Must this Fool be made Wise?
A30118Now, what shall God do to save these Men?
A30118O God, said Heman, I have cryed Day and Night to thee: But when?
A30118O say they, my Sins, my Sins, my Soul, my Soul: How am I loaden with Guilt?
A30118Of God, do I say?
A30118Or what Profit shall I have, if I keep his Commandments?
A30118Say they, If our Iniquities be upon us, and we pine away in them, how can we then live?
A30118Secondly, Is this a truth?
A30118She told the No: VVhat, said I, is your Husband amiss, or do you go back in the VVorld?
A30118Sinner, Hast thou obtained a broken Heart?
A30118Solomon says, The Word of a King is as the Roaring of a Lyon; and if so, what is the Word of God?
A30118Sword upon his Thigh?
A30118That the man that truly comes to God in order thereto, has had his Heart broken?
A30118The Broken Hearted desireth Gods Company, when wilt thou come unto me, saith he?
A30118There be many, says the Psalmist, speak after this sort: But what says the distressed man?
A30118Think therefore with thy self thus, What was it that at first did wound my heart?
A30118Thus saith the Lord, Heaven is my Throne, and the Earth is my Footstool, where is the house that ye build me, or where is the place of my rest?
A30118Time was indeed, he could hector, even hector it with God himself, saying, What''s the Almighty, that we should serve him?
A30118What Humility, what Self- abasing Thoughts, doth a Broken Heart produce?
A30118What can a Man do to procure Christ, to procure Faith or Love?
A30118What care they for God?
A30118What care they for his Word?
A30118What now must be done?
A30118What shall I do?
A30118What''s Man, that thou art mindful of him?
A30118When David danced before the Ark of God also, how did he discover his Nakedness to the disliking of his Wife?
A30118Where doth it lay its Head, but in their Laps?
A30118Wherefore a self- righteous man, is but a painted Satan, or a Devil in fine Cloathes; but thinks he so of himself?
A30118Wherein is he to be accounted of?
A30118Whether goes the Child, when it catcheth harm, but to its Father, to its Mother?
A30118Who knows what will become of the Ark of God?
A30118Who smells the ● tink of Sin?
A30118Why is the Conversion of the Soul compared to the grafting of a Tree if that may be done without cutting?
A30118Why so?
A30118Yea, why is he commanded to let it be so, if the People would bow and fall kindly under him, and heartily implore his Grace without it?
A30118are we better than they?
A30118has God bestowed a Contrite Spirit upon thee?
A30118that is, he is so; Is he a pleasant Child?
A337231st, I Answer, Is not a habit of Faith, a Mans habit?
A3372333. Who shall lay any thing to the charge of Gods elect?
A3372337. their Hearts were prick''d, they cry out in the midst of the Sermon, Men and Brethren what shall we do?
A337237. whose Generation is Eternal, who can declare it?
A33723Alas, what a slender account is this?
A33723And have not the Saints reason to glory in it also?
A33723And how shall we know what that is?
A33723And is this a state to be rested in?
A33723And is this the Conditional service required?
A33723Art thou a new creature?
A33723Art thou born again?
A33723At how little a hole will self- Righteousness creep in?
A33723But alas, how do Men please themselves with their Rich Relations, Great Families, they are Nobly descended?
A33723But they further say, that this is a conditional service: Why?
A33723But this is wrought by God; and is not every Act of Faith wrought by God in the Soul of a Believer?
A33723Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the Leopard his spots?
A33723Can we in any sense say, That we do not commit Sin, that we can not Sin, do no iniquity?
A33723Can you eat, and drink, and sleep so securely under it?
A33723Commanded us to believe and pray, what is that?
A33723Cursed is every one,& c. Do you not hear the Law, says Paul?
A33723Do you make so light of it?
A33723Doth God mean this, when he bids me believe in Jesus?
A33723First, After the commission of Sin; what repentance, what godly sorrow, what shame, what indignation, what revenge?
A33723Hast thou a new heart?
A33723How busie is the Soul?
A33723How hard is it for them that trust in riches, to enter into the kingdom of God?
A33723How should Hearing of things above our Reason contribute any thing to our believing them?
A33723How should we long to be related to such a Father, to such a Brother, to such an Inheritance?
A33723How welcome is he to us?
A33723I do n''t ask what you hold, or what you profess, or what you know, but what you are, what Newness of Spirit do you find in your selves?
A33723If Faith and Repentance be thus always joyned together, does it not follow that we are justified by our Repentance as well as by Faith?
A33723If it be a Truth, as I doubt not you all believe it to be, Why do n''t you follow it home, make something of it?
A33723If you ask, How Life comes to be derived from Christ into the Soul of a dead Sinner?
A33723Is it not infused by God into Man, and placed in Man?
A33723Is not Man the Subject of this Habit?
A33723Is not this the old, honest, plain down- right notion of believing?
A33723Is there such a Principle within us, that we can say from our Consciences, we would not Sin, even when we do Sin?
A33723Is this the condition?
A33723Is this the way to quiet and settle the Consciences of poor distressed sinners?
A33723Is this to Preach Christ?
A33723Is this to be raised in power, with our Spirits made perfect?
A33723Life is promised, not simply to believing, but to believing in; in whom?
A33723Must we be set upon a fresh by him?
A33723My Text speaks of something to be done in you, and upon you, Is that done?
A33723No, no, after death he hath done with you for ever; he will not dare to look you in the face at the last day: He draw up a charge against you?
A33723Regeneration, or our first Conversion, what is it but a revealing Christ in us?
A33723Secondly, After the conquest over the Temptation; what rejoycing, what thanksgiving, what triumphing in the Grace of Christ?
A33723The Positive part is, He doth Righteousness; what do ye more than others?
A33723The last enemy that shall be destroyed is Death, saith the Apostle; and must we have an after rancounter with the Devil?
A33723The main Query is, How this Union is brought about between Christ and our Souls?
A33723The next thing to be considered is, whether you and I are regenerated, and do feel any symptoms of this new birth in our selves?
A33723There is much Preaching and much Hearing in this City, but what comes on''t?
A33723This should awaken us to Repentance, are there not sins even mong us against the Lord our God?
A33723To Preach the glad Tidings of the Gospel?
A33723To work for Justification is to work for Life, and why should we thus turn the Gospel into the Law?
A33723What Preparatory Works are?
A33723What carefulness, what clearing of themselves, what Indignation and Revenge?

A33723What have we to do to repent of the punishment?
A33723What if we know no more of Justification then is absolutely necessary for our Justification?
A33723What is Grace but Truth put into the inward parts?
A33723What is Regenerating Grace, but a special Providence towards the Elect, carried on with wonderful Wisdom and Counsel?

A33723What, must we work for Life still?
A33723When saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee?
A33723Whence should such an actual Will arise in man, as to desire his own Annihilation, that he may cease to be what he is, and become a new Creature?
A33723Where is the new Nature?
A33723Whether the first step in Regeneration be from Sin to Holiness, or from a sinful state and nature to Christ, that we may be made holy by him?
A33723Who is against it?
A33723Who is that inward Man, but the new Man, the new Creature, born of the incorruptible seed of the Word?
A33723Who must draw up this charge, and manage this false Indictment?
A33723Why do n''t you do it then?
A33723With what reverence doth Paul draw nigh to this great Father?
A33723You believe in Christ, what is the English of that?
A33723You''l say then, is the Law against Repentance?
A33723You''ll say, What are we to understand by the present state of our Souls?
A33723are all things become new within and without?
A33723born of God?

A033397. to provoke one another to all kind of lewdnesse?
A033398. what cause of terrour have I, maist thou well say to thine owne soule?
A03339A likely matter will you say: for where have you harder, and profaner hearts, then such as are daily beaten upon by this hammer?
A03339A wounded spirit who can beare?
A03339A wounded spirit( that is, which God in his anger hath wounded) who can beare?
A03339Alas what cause hath he to bee offended with mee, that have beene mine owne tempter?
A03339Am I my brothers keeper?
A03339Am I my brothers keeper?
A03339And hath not the Lord done all this?
A03339And how came he to this?
A03339And how did he overcome God th ● s?
A03339And how did they read?
A03339And what answer hath God given to our prayers?
A03339And what comparison is there betweene that preferment and this, that every child of God is advanced unto by his death?
A03339And what hope then can we have to prevaile in our fasts, while no care is taken to find out Achan?
A03339And what is that businesse of importance( will you say) that we must thus dispatch without delay, if we would be well prepared to dye?
A03339And what is the true cause of all this?
A03339And what made his tast so good?
A03339And what times are the fittest( may you say) for this purpose?
A03339And what was the cause of that plague?
A03339And what was the cause of this strange and fearefull pestilence that consumed in one day three and twenty thousand?
A03339And where were ever found in the world so long& inward& dear friends, as the soule and body have beene?
A03339And why did they use this?
A03339And why so?
A03339And will you not be affected with it?
A03339As if the Church there should say, why do men mourne, and fret, and take on so for this judgement of GOD that is justly fallen upon them?
A03339But how can that be?
A03339But what is it, that most humbled and troubled his heart in this his fast?
A03339But what was it, that made it so powerfull?
A03339But when made hee that prayer?
A03339Can I not be in the state of grace, unlesse I match these examples, and be so tender hearted, and apt to mourne as they?
A03339Can we get in our harvest, or provide for our families by comming to Church, and joyning with you in prayer?
A03339Did not I weep for him that was in trouble?
A03339Did not these men mourne for their sinnes thinke you?
A03339Did they not repent already, of that they had done?
A03339Get thee up, wheref ● re lyest thou thus upon thy face?
A03339Get thee up, wherefore lyest thou thus upon thy face?
A03339Have I 〈 ◊ 〉 requited the Lord, O foolish, and ungratious wretch that I am, Is hee not my father?
A03339He was deeply affected with their misery,( as appeareth by the story) but what course tooke he to helpe them?
A03339How can I pray in faith, or be confident that He will heare me?
A03339How did he turne away Gods wrath from them?
A03339How fearefull a pestilence would that have beene, if it had continued any time, if it had not been presently stayed?
A03339How fearfull are they then to offend God in any thing?
A03339How much more just cause of griefe is this, when thou canst not so much as pray for him?
A03339How much more when they shall see, and feele the torments that are prepared in hell for them?
A03339How much more( wilt thou say) are my sins innumerable?
A03339How stood he in the breach?
A03339How sweet are thy words unto my taste?
A03339If any man shall aske me, doth not that example bind us?
A03339If any of you shall aske me, Why what can we do, or what should we do to worke our hearts to this godly sorrow?
A03339If any shall aske me what must I doe, and what course must I take to make my peace with GOD?
A03339Is any afflicted?
A03339Is it in the power of man to overcome God, to withstand Him when He comes to take vengeance, to cause Him to change His mind?
A03339Is it not to deale thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poore that are cast out to thine house?
A03339Is it nothing to you all ye that passe by?
A03339Is not my Word like a hammer that breaketh the rocke in peeces?
A03339Is not my Word like as a fire, saith the Lord?
A03339Israel hath sinned; so will He to us: why do you thus fast, and pray, and make such shew of humiliation as you do?
A03339It is hard to find a man so stout and couragious,( shall I say?)
A03339Let no man say, had we not better have their room then their company?
A03339Loe l have sinned, and have done wickedly, but these sheepe what have they done?
A03339No man repented himselfe of his wickednesse, saying what have I done?
A03339Now if you shall aske me, how may this be done?
A03339O Lord God of hosts, how long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy people?
A03339O Lord why hast thou hardned my heart from thy feare?
A03339O Lord why hast thou hardned our heart?
A03339O what Saints seeme many of them to be in their extreme sicknesse?
A03339O what sweetnesse found Paul in Christ?
A03339O wretched man that I am, who shall deliver me from the body of this death?
A03339Or will our praying keepe away the plague from us?
A03339Put thou my teares in thy bottle, are they not in thy booke?
A03339Say therefore to thine owne soule, if all Gods people have beene so apt to weep and mourne, what am I?
A03339Seest thou how Ahab humbleth himselfe before me?
A03339Seest thou how Ahab humbleth himselfe?
A03339Shall there be evill in a City, and the Lord hath not done it?
A03339Should I weep in the fift month separating my selfe as I have done these so many yeeres?
A03339Suppose( saith he) that a man doe live many yeeres, which( yet) no man( specially no voluptuous man) hath cause to looke for, For what is your life?
A03339The LORD chargeth the Iewes that they did not know His judgement, because no man said, what have I done?
A03339The Lion hath roared, who will not feare?
A03339They even die without wisdome,( saith he) as if he should say, and what can be said more to prove them most wretched men?
A03339Though thou canst not quite leave them( as who can do that in this life?)
A03339We know not the meaning of the plague, nor make right use of it, unlesse every one of us enter into his owne heart, a ● d say, what have I done?
A03339Were any of these things unlawfull?
A03339What better course then can we take for their good, than to seeke to the Lord for them?
A03339What did they more now, than they did before?
A03339What good can wee hope to receive by having such as they, to joyne with us in our fasts?
A03339What is the cause of this?
A03339What man is he that feareth the Lord?
A03339What profit shal we have if we pray unto him?
A03339What sinnes should I call to mind?
A03339When thou seest the naked that thou cover him, and that thou hide not thy selfe from thine own flesh?
A03339When yee fasted and mourned, did yee it at all to mee, even to mee?
A03339Wherefore doth a living man complaine,( chafe, and fret, and disquiet himselfe) a man for the punishment of his sinnes?
A03339Wherefore doth a living man complaine; a man for the punishment of his sinnes?
A03339Wherefore doth a living man complaine?
A03339Wherefore have wee afflicted our soule and thou takest no knowledge?
A03339Why do they not betake themselves to the right course for the pacifying of GODS wrath?
A03339Why doe you call mee Naomi, seeing the Lord( by taking away my husband and my children) hath testified against me, and the Almighty hath afflicted me?
A03339Why should not Gods favourit ● s be as much honoured, as the favourites of the greatest King?
A03339Why wept he so?
A03339Why what evill, or unlawfulnesse was there in all this?
A03339Why what had they done?
A03339Why will you continue in this uncomfortable estate?
A03339Why?
A03339Why?
A03339Will God heare his cry?
A03339Will he call upon God at all times?
A03339Will there bee any hope our fasts shall doe much good while our disordred wakes are cōtinued, and frequented so in such times as these are?
A03339Wouldst thou then have thy heart softned?
A03339You will say it is a needlesse exhortation: for, who is not affected with this plague?
A03339a man for the punishment of his sinnes?
A03339all?
A03339and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?
A03339and wherefore come we hither els, if we be not affected with it?
A03339and who can abide in the fiercenesse of his anger?
A03339and why art thou disquieted within me?
A03339delight himselfe in the Almighty?
A03339had but spit in her face should shee not be ashamed seven dayes?
A03339hath he not made mee, and established mee?
A03339that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdome of God?
A03339that they were sinners above all that dwelt in Hierusalem?
A03339the judge shall judge him, but if a man sinne against the Lord, who shall intreat for him?
A03339to loose the bands of wickednesse, to undoe the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye breake every yoke?
A03339was not my soule grieved for the poore?
A03339was not my soule grieved for the poore?
A03339when I lye downe, Isay, when shall I arise, and the night be gone?
A03339who is not affraid of it?
A03339will he alwayes call upon God?
A62638And art thou not yet resolved to leave it?
A62638And can such a Thought as this enter into the Heart of a considerate Man?
A62638And can there be any difficulty, for a Man to be resolved what is to be done in such a Case?
A62638And can there then be any before whom, and against whom we should be more ashamed to offend?
A62638And how is this done but by Resolution?
A62638And if any Man ask me, where I find this distinction in Scripture, between a general and particular Repentance?
A62638And if this be not enough, St. Matthew useth a larger expression, How much more shall your heavenly Father give good things to them that ask him?
A62638And suppose this should happen to thee, what dost thou imagine would become of thee?
A62638And this I take to be the meaning of that question in the Psalmist, Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge?
A62638And well pleased if they be but melancholy for their faults, tho''they ne- never mend them?
A62638And what can be imagined beyond this?
A62638And what did the Apostles preach, but to the same purpose?
A62638And what is this, but a firm, stedfast, and unalterable Resolution?
A62638And who is sufficient to speak to either of these Arguments?
A62638And why do we not Consider these things, which are of so infinite Concernment to us?
A62638And why should any man hope for the Mercy of God upon other Terms, than those which he hath so plainly and peremptorily declared?
A62638Art thou resolved to leave Sin, because it is so great an Evil?
A62638As the Apostle reasons in another Case, Doth God take care of Oxen?
A62638But do not the Ministers of the Gospel exercise this power of remitting sins in Baptism?
A62638Can the Ethiopian change his Skin, or the Leopard his Spots?
A62638Can we be sad and melancholy for temporal Losses and Sufferings, and refuse to be comforted?
A62638Can we weep for our dead Friends?
A62638Didst thou but see, and know, and feel, what the miserable do in Hell, thou couldst not linger thus, thou couldst not continue so long unresolved?
A62638For how art thou sorry for doing of it, if thou continuest to do it; if thou wilt go on to do it and do it again?
A62638For what can he that believes not one syllable of the Bible, do worse than this comes to?
A62638For who can hope, that a Man will forsake his Sins, when he is not so much as ashamed of them?
A62638Hast thou any thing now to plead for Sin, which thou didst not know or consider before?
A62638Hast thou found upon Tryal, that Holiness and Virtue are but empty Names, and that there is nothing in them?
A62638Hath God alter''d his opinion of it, or is he become more favourable to it than he was?
A62638Hath he this Consideration of our Bodies, which are but the brutish part of the Man?
A62638Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge?
A62638Have we not reason then to be ashamed of Sin, which casts such a reproach of Ignorance and Rashness upon us?
A62638How are we divided and distracted, when our Reason and Judgment direct us one way; and our Lusts and Affections biass us to the contrary?
A62638How dost thou hate thy Sin, if thou enjoy the Benefit and reap the Advantage of it?
A62638How many have been cut off in their Irresolution?
A62638How many inward Motions had I to that purpose?
A62638How often did my own Reason and Conscience, and the holy Spirit of God, by his frequent and friendly suggestions, put me upon this?
A62638How often was I admonish''d and convinced of the necessity of changing my course?
A62638How often was I just upon the brink of resolving?
A62638If a Son shall ask bread of any of you that is a Father, will he give him a stone?
A62638If any now ask, why then are not all men Happy?
A62638If they are not ashamed of them, why do they not bring them into the broad Light, and shew them openly, if they think they will endure it?
A62638Impenitence in a Heathen is a great Sin; else how should God judge the World?
A62638Nothing surely is more reasonable than Repentance; and yet how hard is it to bring men to it?
A62638Or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a Serpent?
A62638Or if he shall ask an Egg, will he offer him a Scorpion?
A62638Seest thou( says he) a Man diligent in business?
A62638Such Persons who glory in that which ought to be their shame, what can their end be but destruction?
A62638That he hath set the Devils at Liberty, and releast them from their Chains of darkness, and hath quenched and put out the fire of Hell?
A62638That there is not that Pleasure and Peace in keeping the Commandments of God, which thou wert told of?
A62638The Lord said unto Cain, why art thou wrath?
A62638The reflection upon our Sins afterwards is cause of shame and confusion to us; What fruit had you then in those things, whereof ye are now ashamed?
A62638Then came also the Publicans to be Baptized, and said unto him, Master, what shall we do?
A62638Then( i. e.) at the time when you committed those Sins, had you any present Advantage by them?
A62638Then,( i. e.) When ye committed those Sins, had you any present Advantage by them?
A62638Thus Ephraim when he repented of his Idolatry, he utterly renounced it, saying, What have I to do any more with Idols?
A62638Turn ye, turn ye, from your evils ways; for why will ye die, O House of Israel?
A62638Were they ashamed when they committed abominations?
A62638Were they ashamed, when they had committed abomination?
A62638Wert thou mistaken before about the Nature of Sin, and the pernicious consequences of it; or about the Nature of God and Goodness?
A62638What anxiety and confusion is there in our Spirits, whilst we are doubtful and undetermined about such matters?
A62638What can be more proper when we come to this Sacrament, than the renewing of our Repentance?
A62638What did Christ preach to the Jews, but that they would repent of their sins, and believe on him as the Messias?
A62638What doth the Profane Man get by his contempt of Religion?
A62638What fruit had ye then in those things, whereof ye are now ashamed?
A62638What fruit had ye then in those things, whereof ye are now ashamed?
A62638What fruit had ye then in those things, whereof ye are now ashamed?
A62638What fruit had ye then in those things, whereof ye are now ashamed?
A62638What fruit had ye then in those things, whereof ye are now ashamed?
A62638What fruit had ye then in those things, whereof ye are now ashamed?
A62638What fruit had ye then in those things?
A62638What fruit had ye then in those things?
A62638What fruit had you then in those things, whereof you are now ashamed?
A62638What is it that puts thee upon this Resolution of leaving thy Sins, and urgeth thee to do it at all?
A62638What is that?
A62638What regard will he then have to his own Image, that spark of Divinity which is for ever to reside in these Bodies?
A62638When shall it once be?
A62638Where the Aggravation of the one''s Guilt above the other?
A62638Where the Justice of punishing the Impenitence of Chorazin and Bethsaida, more than theirs of Tyre and Sidon?
A62638Where then is the Reason of upbraiding the Impenitence of the one, more than of the other?
A62638Whether Faith and Repentance and Sincere Obedience be not the Terms of Salvation, and the necessary Conditions of Happiness?
A62638Whether Jesus Christ be not the Messias and Saviour of the world?
A62638Whether good men shall be eternally and unspeakably happy, and wicked men extreamly and everlastingly miserable?
A62638Whether the preaching of Faith in Christ, among those who are already Christians, be at all necessary?
A62638Whether there be a Heaven and Hell?
A62638Whether there shall be a future Judgment, when all men shall be sentenced according to their works?
A62638Who can Comprehend the vast significancy of those Expressions, Fear him, who after he hath killed, can destroy both body and soul in Hell?
A62638Who can tell, if God will turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not?
A62638Who can understand his errours?
A62638Why do they not escape Ruin and Destruction?
A62638Why dost thou not persist in it?
A62638Why dost thou not pursue this Resolution?
A62638Why should ye be smitten any more?
A62638Why wilt thou make work for a sadder and longer Repentance, than that which thou dost now so carefully decline?
A62638Why wilt thou then be so foolish, as to run thy self upon the evident hazard of losing Heaven, and being miserable for ever?
A62638Will any wise Father or Prince accept less from his Children and Subjects?
A62638Wilt thou not be made clean?
A62638With what Triumph and Exultation doth the Blessed Apostle St. Paul, upon the review of his Life, discourse concerning his Death and Dissolution?
A62638Would''st thou have yet a little longer time to deliberate, whether thou should''st repent and forsake thy Sins, or not?
A62638Wouldst not thou then wish a thousand times, that thou hadst resolved in time?
A62638You will say, why do I call Repentance a Doctrine of the Gospel?
A62638and again, It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God?
A62638and have we no sense of that heavy load of Guilt, of that body of death, which we carry about with us?
A62638and of Imprudence likewise and Indiscretion?
A62638and why is thy Countenance fall''n?
A62638that the reflection upon it afterwards causeth Shame; What fruit had you then in those things, whereof ye are now ashamed?
A62638what comfort can we give to men in such a case?
A62638will they be satisfied with sighs and tears, as well as with Obedience?
A73023& what though thou fightest against principalities and powers, when thou hast Cherubins, and Seraphims on thy side?
A73023& who shal goe for( vs)?
A730232 But now England, how hast thou requited this kindnesse of the Lorde?
A730233 Are good Ministers so thinne sowne?
A73023A Minister is to declare the reconciliation betwixt God and man, and is hee himselfe not reconciled?
A73023A question or inquirie made by God; When shall I send, and who shall goe for vs?
A73023Againe, might not the Prophet haue alledged that with a better pretence and colour then they?
A73023Alas, alas, is not that a simple& a silly search where such blockes as these are, lye vnspied?
A73023All that God can giue a man in this world, is his Gospell: what then can God giue to be regarded, when his gospel is contemned?
A73023Also I heard the voyce of the Lorde, saying, whom shall I send, and who shall goe for vs?
A73023Also, I heard the voice of the Lord saying, whom shall I send?
A73023And if Paul said, Who is?
A73023And not to run vpon priuate motions, Ob, How shall I know when God calles me?
A73023And shall God suffer so foule a wickednesse to lye vnpunished?
A73023And some want willingnesse to vndertake the labour, as God here complaineth; Who shall goe for vs?
A73023And they teach, a man may in this life perfectly fulfill the Lawe, but who can doe it, i ● not ministers?
A73023And what ministers, if not extraordinary prophets?
A73023Are not these goodly liuings for learned men?
A73023But alas, can not the Kings Messenger or Officer be honoured, vnlesse he be set vpon the Kings throne?
A73023But for the matter: Are apparitions from heauen so ordinary in the popish Church?
A73023But it will then be demaunded, how may I know if God bid me goe?
A73023But let those men marke heere the phrase of this holy Prophet, when God asked, Whom shall I send?
A73023But may not another Christian do it?
A73023But then it may be demanded, why the Lorde saith so?
A73023But to goe further: whence came this Coale?
A73023But what doth this belong to them alone?
A73023But what kinde of seruantes are they?
A73023But, if we will not doe this, then alas, what wil follow?
A73023By this inquirie, and question made by God, whom shall I send, and who shall goe for vs?
A73023Can hee commend the state of Grace to another, and neuer felt the sweetenesse thereof in his owne soule?
A73023Dare he present another man to Gods mercy for pardon, and neuer yet presented himselfe?
A73023Dare hee come to preach sanctification with polluted lips, and out of an vnsanctified heart?
A73023Doe yee thus requite the Lord: O foolish people& vnwise?
A73023Euen cry to the mountaines, fall vpon vs: and to the hils, couer vs, and hide vs: from what?
A73023Euen so it is with a nation, or a people: are they taught, and are they worse and worse?
A73023For shal the Oxes mouth be mousled, which treads out the corne, or shall a man goe to warre at his owne cost?
A73023For what though thou hast mightie men of this world against thee, when thou hast angels for thee?
A73023Hee willes the Lord to send him: then where are they who dare bragge of their priuate motions, and will runne when they are not sent?
A73023How foule a thing is it that amongst so many, the Lord should haue cause to complaine; Whom shall wee send?
A73023How?
A73023If any aske, how he shal know when Gods calles him?
A73023If any man aske; But is it not as good if another man pronounce forgiuenesse vnto me vpon my repentance?
A73023If then God hath stood knocking at our hearts fiue& thirtie yeares: is it not now time to bee gone, vnlesse we open presently?
A73023In the last place, let vs marke what God saith: Whom shall I send,& who shal goe for vs?
A73023In the olde Testament, when the people receiued the law from Gods owne mouth, it is saide, they ran away, and cryed out, Why should we die?
A73023Is it not then an honour and happinesse vnto thee to bring thy sonne to this estate?
A73023Now we come to the second general point here laid down: that is, whom must we Search?
A73023Now, how did this people( thus beloued of their God,) requite this his loue, which they had no more deserued, then any other Nation?
A73023O what is this, that I haue done against God, against his Church, and against my owne soule?
A73023Reade Saint Iohn, whose sinnes soeuer you remit, they are remitted; whose you retaine, they are retained: will you haue the meaning of both?
A73023Repent, or else certainely God will take vengeance: But( will mans heart say) is this true?
A73023Shall they be so diligent to destroy soules without a commission, and incurre Gods curse for their labour?
A73023The Lord knoweth who are his, and neede not to aske whom shall I send, or who shall goe?
A73023The second vse concernes the ministers also: are they Gods Angels?
A73023The third point: Who must search?
A73023Thirdly, let vs obserue how the Lord saith: Who shal( I) send?
A73023This should bee the end of their preaching, to deliuer a soule from hell:& what should Commissioners doe, but execute their Commission?
A73023This sinne was neuer amongst the Iewes: they indeed regarded it not so as it deserued, but who did euer make a mocke and a scorne of it but England?
A73023What place is it they holde?
A73023Whence came this Coale?
A73023Where is the cause?
A73023Why should we search our selues?
A73023Why then should they so much condemne them, for such faults, as wherein themselues haue made them faultie?
A73023Will any man endure alwayes to bee mocked, then how long hath God beene mocked?
A73023Will any man endure to stand knocking continually?
A73023Will you knowe the meaning hereof?
A73023and can there bee any darknesse at Noone day, but it must bee wilfull?
A73023and hath not God ordained( marke, it is his Ordinance) that those which teach the Gospel, shall liue of the Gospel?
A73023and how foule a staine is it to the honour of his calling, to be polluted in the common pollutions of his people?
A73023and is Israel onely a Nation not worthy to be beloued?
A73023and may not wee expect a learned ministerie, where there is such maintenance?
A73023and shall wee continue so still?
A73023and should not a man look about him, afore he come there?
A73023and then changing the number, hee saith: Who shall goe for v ●?
A73023and who shall gae for vs?
A73023are there so few of them?
A73023how may I know if God bid me goe?
A73023or to him, who, when thy cause is in triall at the barre, will pleade it for thee?
A73023or to him, who, when thy health is lost, can tell thee how to get it againe?
A73023or who shall be sent to such a parish?
A73023shall Baal haue his 4. hundred prophets, and God haue his Elias alone?
A73023so can not Angels be honoured, vnlesse they be made Gods, or Sauiours, or mediators?
A73023they approach to the burning Bush, with their shooes on their feete: that is, into Gods presence in their sinnes: what shall come of it in the end?
A73023what are moulehils, when such mountaines are not seene?
A73023what did Nathan heere, but the duty of euery true minister?
A73023what place or office haue they?
A73023will nothing serue him, but the Crowne and Scepter?

A05590I mean mans stinking flesh; who can expresse?
A05590I might have fled, to hide me in some cave, But curious I, would swallow shame and feare: Could I sustaine his crosse, his death and grave?
A05590If I were sure, that lust were not controld, Nor punishd by the gods, above which ring: Yet for the fact it selfe, I will disprove it, Cause why?
A05590In fortune, or himselfe, each leaving other: He carelesse fled from meanes: If disputable?
A05590Is Christs redemption, fraught with saving bloud: If we have faith in him, if we can pray?

A05590Such as the life''s, so frequently the death, The Divels deceit, prolongs us in delay: Then wouldst thou flee that pestilence?
A05590Such passive moods, are frequent growne, that now Old crazd calamitie, begins to quiver: Both rich and poore, live timerous, and how?
A05590Such sowre flagelloes, are the rods of nature, To whippe the childe of lust, with sound correction: Cause why?

A05590There is no sense in this, that I should slay My silly soule, to crosse my crost desire: Can head- strong passions, mine accounts defray?
A05590They bragge like Butchers, of their beastly deeds, And laugh at cruelty, as at a play?
A05590This world''s a valley, of perpetuall teares, And what''s the Scripture?

A05590To hide me from thy face, what way?
A05590To him, for thee, did shed his precious blood, And though rebuk''d, yet would he not reprove: Why did he fast, weep, watch, and labour take?

A05590Tyrus now calld Sur?
A05590Was I not Cephas, lately thought a Rock?
A05590Was I not witnes, to his word, and deed?

A05590What am I in thine eyes?
A05590What are our present judgements?
A05590What are the humours, of our foggy braines?
A05590What eyes for grief, should not dissolve in floods?

A65293Some bless themselves that they have a stock of knowledge, but what is knowledge good for without Repentance?
A65293Some move the question, whether the sins of the godly shall be mentioned at the last day?

A45885If it be secret, how camest thou to know it?
A45885If no Body can possibly be moved but by a Body contiguous and moved, as Mr. Hobbs teaches; I demand, How there comes to be Local motion in the World?
A45885If then I be a Father, where is mine Honour?

A45885Or as the Prophet, Dost thou not know that I gave thee thy Corn and Wine, saith God, and that I multiplyed thy silver and thy gold?
A45885Or despisest thou the Riches of his Goodness, and forbearance, and long suffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to Repentance?
A45885Pining Envy as vexatious as the gnawing of the Stomach?
A45885Says, wilt thou not run away from thy disobedient Party?
A45885Shall Error be set for a Rule?
A45885Shall God ever hearken to thee crying from Hell, who dost despise him who hath spoken to thee from Heaven?
A45885Shall God forgive such as do not entreat him to do so?
A45885Shall a Malefactor think himself well, because he is not hanged as soon as condemned, when the Judge hath set a day for his Execution?
A45885Shall bold sinners be annihilated because they desire it, knowing they shall have no part of Felicity, if there be any in the other World?
A45885Shall he which can not outgo a Footman hope to outrun Horsmen?
A45885Shall not the God of heaven and earth regard what is due to him by a Right which is transcendent to all created propriety?
A45885Shall not the forementioned Assistances, granted with so much patience, make the sinner say?
A45885Shall we maintain an Action at Law in which we are sure to be cast, and that against God?
A45885So Ieremiah, Have I been a wilderness to Israel, or a land of darkness, that they say we are Lords, we will come no more at thee?
A45885Sure thou darest not ask of God leave to sin; what then makes thee so bold as not to repent?
A45885Tell him of Repentance?
A45885That he hath a secret will contradictory to his revealed?
A45885They saw the vileness and danger of sin, and therefore cried out, Men and Brethren, what shall we do to be saved?
A45885This is so strange a thing in Gods accompt, that as the Prophet Malachi tells us God wonders at it; Will a man rob God?
A45885To excuse himself that he sinned, he did what his Conscience told him he should not have done?
A45885To the first; After all that full Declaration which God hath made of his goodness, dost thou doubt his Reality?
A45885Was this the sincerity of an old Disciple, the attainment of Paul the aged?
A45885We have committed many Errors, and can we repent of them all on a sudden?
A45885Wept over it?
A45885What a High Priest and worship a Calf?
A45885What am I so base as to trample under my feet the Blood of the Son of God, and to scorn the prayers and tears of my Saviour?
A45885What are they?
A45885What can be more unnatural, than for the hearts of Fathers to be set against their Children, and for Children to hate their Parents?
A45885What doth all that thou hast done amount to?
A45885What help will they give others, who are themselves in unspeakable Torments, and who are so malicious, that, if they could, they would not?
A45885What is it that makes sin so dear to us?
A45885What joy can a man have, when the indwelling God is grieved, and the Fool lives in contradiction to the connate Principles of his soul?
A45885What profit is there in my Blood?
A45885What vvas the Reason?
A45885What worse things could happen to any mortal man, than those which Christ suffered?
A45885Who knows whether he hath filled up the measure which God will stop at?
A45885Who would not repent that knows this?
A45885Whom the Law of the Spirit of Life had made free from the Law of Sin and Death?
A45885Why even of your selves judge ye not what is right?
A45885Why should not God punish such as long as he pleaseth, who sinned as long as they could?
A45885Why should their punishment have an end, who would never leave sinning?
A45885Why so?
A45885Why, is that such a matter that God should resent it on that fashion?
A45885Will any body say that all should be as they are?
A45885Will any dare to say to God then, I knew thou wast austere, and reapest where thou didst not sow?
A45885Will any man drink Poison, because he sees it sweetned with a great quantity of Sugar?
A45885Will any man drink in such a Cup?
A45885Will any wise man build the peace of his Conscience, and lay the stress of his hopes upon Excuses?
A45885Will impenitent sinners be able to endure this?
A45885You pretend to please God with obedidience, you should do so; for he is the supream Law- giver; What then, will you do it with partial obedience?
A45885and what good shall his humiliation do him?
A45885and when those Vows were made upon most serious deliberation, and for those Reasons which thou dost still acknowledge to be most weighty?
A45885because thou hast two wills, one in thy Words, and another in thy mind, dost thou think that God hath so too?
A45885could you not watch with me one hour in this my great Agony?
A45885dost thou not also endeavour to find the power of Gospel Motives working in thy soul to the ends for which they were propounded?
A45885dost thou think thy self able to endure it?
A45885or are we afraid of any thing but God?
A45885or if Nature requires another state; are not the modest allowances of Marriage enough, without the unclean pleasures of forbidden Beds?
A45885or it may be persuadest thy self that it may be escaped some other way?
A45885or that his yielding to the Devil will be any excuse to him when he is overcome, and made his Slave, when he did not resist him?
A45885that he speaks one thing, and means another?
A45885they have no merits to make their own Prayers sweet, and how then shall they perfume those of others?
A45885what is it that Christianity requires us to forego, but small petty enjoyments?
A45885what small security is in that short respite?
A45885will the fore- consideration of mischiefs prepare us against them?
A45885— Was I delivered to do abominations?
A392611,& c. Now what a wretched condition is that man in, all whose Addresses to Heaven, and all whose good deeds on Earth can do him no good?
A3926110. should allow us just as much time as we desire, to dishonour and affront him in?
A392615. to set light by the Gospel of Peace?
A392616. Who can have any Comfort in his life past, that considers not how he hath spent it, whether Sinfully and Vainly, or Virtuously and Piously?
A39261Am I sure what my End will be?
A39261And am I not a very fool for this?
A39261And am I taking all this pains to entertain the Worms?
A39261And are we content then to be damned if we die to night?
A39261And are we sure, that if we defer it now, it will do us good hereafter?
A39261And can it now be needful to prove, that this can not be done too soon?
A39261And can this be thought a saving Repentance?
A39261And can we excuse our selves for such a Sin and Folly?
A39261And had we rather gratify the Devil by our Damnation, than have the holy Angels rejoice at our Salvation?
A39261And have we not daily remembrancers of what we are so apt of our selves to forget?
A39261And how are we sure that God will then accept of it?
A39261And how easie is it then to see, that many who think themselves Penitents, are mistaken in their duty?
A39261And is it not likely, the longer we delay, that this same supine and regardless temper will be the more fixed and confirm''d?
A39261And is it not then too natural to men of this presumption, to presume still the more confidently, the longer God forbeareth them?
A39261And is not the danger of dying impenitent, the same now, that it will be then?
A39261And is not this as absurd, as to set our selves in our Saviour''s stead, and a taking upon us to make for our selves a new and easier way to Heaven?
A39261And may they not, for ought we know, befal us as well as any others?
A39261And may we not be this moment, for ought we know, in the very same danger that we then thought our selves in?
A39261And must not all this make Repentance a much harder work, than otherwise it might have been?
A39261And must the glorious Majesty of Heaven and Earth wait on every filthy Wretch as long as he pleaseth?
A39261And shall we not, to make our life easie to us, and our burthen light, be at the pains of a few timely serious Thoughts?
A39261And to how much better purpose too were it so to do?
A39261And what a task doth he thus make himself, to repent of all these sins hereafter?
A39261And what care have I taken that I may not?
A39261And what greater baseness of mind and temper can there be in any one, than this?
A39261And what kind of Penitents are these?
A39261And what reason have we, if we now love them so well, to think, that we shall not love them as well hereafter, as now we do?
A39261And what saith the delaying Sinner to all this, when he is told of it?
A39261And what will follow thence?
A39261And who feeds me, or can reward or punish me, but he who is Lord of all things?
A39261And who of a thousand, especially if young and lively, hath patience to endure this?
A39261And why then are we not now in as great haste to repent, as we were in then?
A39261Are his Works and Word, his Blessings and his Curse, his Favour and Displeasure, his Mercies and his Judgments, all one to us?
A39261Are not most Malefactors thus penitent, after a severe Sentence is given, and they see no remedy but it must be presently executed upon them?
A39261Are not our Obligations, and our Dependances on him the same?
A39261Are the things which belong unto our Peace hid from us, so that we can have no thoughts of them?
A39261Are we able to plead for our selves, That we have lived a life of Repentance, Faith, and new Obedience?
A39261Are we forgetful?
A39261Are we ignorant, and wicked?
A39261Are we no way concern''d in God''s Infinite Wisdom, Power, Goodness, Justice, Faithfulness, Holiness, his Providence, or his Laws?
A39261Are we not in the greatest danger by not considering?
A39261Are we not sensible that such things often befal men, who as little fear''d them as we do?
A39261But how doth God resent such an Answer?
A39261But if we can not plead this, what will become of us?
A39261But what was it we promised?
A39261But who hath assured us, that we shall have any time at all, after this that now is, to repent in?
A39261By whose Order am I to dispose of what I have, but by his who gave it me?
A39261Can any one pity us, or shall not we curse our selves, if we perish only for want of considering how we may be saved?
A39261Can any one think he hath too soon got out of the Lion''s mouth, out of the snares of the Devil, and from the Borders of Hell?
A39261Can any one think it too soon to be within view of Heaven and Eternal Joys?
A39261Can any one, who hath any love for himself( as who hath not in some sense or other?)
A39261Can one too early get out of danger and be safe?
A39261Can one too soon begin to grow Happy?
A39261Can our own Consciences acquit us, for not thinking how we may escape Eternal Misery?
A39261Can such Vertues as Sobriety, Temperance and Chastity, and many more, be thought commanded us as the proper Exercises of a sick and dying man?
A39261Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the Leopard his spots?
A39261Can there be any Comfort in a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries?
A39261Can there be any place for Comfort in that man''s breast, that knows himself to be at Enmity with God, and God to be incens''d against him?
A39261Can there be any thing more against Reason, than to think it was given us to consider least, the things that are most considerable?
A39261Can we be indifferent, whether God take any care for our Salvation, or none?
A39261Can we be wholly unconcern''d whether he see us, or see us not; whether he regard, or neglect us?
A39261Can we excuse our selves for not thinking most on the best things, which will do us most good?
A39261Can we think it all a case, whether we behave our selves towards him as Subjects, or as Rebels; whether he reward, or punish us?
A39261Can we think the Apostle meant no more by these words, but that we should do this for some few years or days of our old age before we die?
A39261Do I nothing now but what I shall be able to answer for then?
A39261Do not they all visibly tend to our Health, and our Honour, and our Happiness?
A39261Do such Servants consider, that they are not their own, and that the Money they have is not their own?
A39261Do we any of us know, how soon the Door will be shut upon us, and there shall be no entrance for us into Heaven?
A39261Do we know, any of us, that there is so much as one day, or one hour, betwixt this moment and Eternity?
A39261Doth it tell them, that they may safely stay as long as they have a mind to Sin, and yet Repent at last?
A39261Doth not God in JESUS Christ most graciously invite us to this high honour?
A39261Doth not he see my ways, and count all my steps?
A39261God hath not assured us of any such thing, and Man can not; on what then do we build our hopes of living to any time hereafter?
A39261Had we deserved to die?
A39261Had we rather weep fruitlesly for our Torments, than weep savingly for our Sins?
A39261Hath he not open''d unto us a fountain for sin and for uncleanness, wherein the foulest sinner may wash freely, and become as white as snow?
A39261Hath not God laid them plain and open before us, so as he that runs may read them?
A39261Have I made my self ready for a blessed Eternity?
A39261Have we no Eyes to see with, no light to see by?
A39261Have we no Reason to consider?
A39261Have we no Teachers to instruct us?
A39261Have we no capacity of learning?
A39261Have we not yet well learn''d them?
A39261Have we, after all, need still of bodily succours and sustenance, of wordly delights and refreshments in our way to blessedness?
A39261How came we to be of such a different temper then, from that which we were in before?
A39261How can any one imagine it too soon to do what he knows necessary to be done, and yet may never be done, if not just now?
A39261How can we chuse but blush to continue any time, so very unlike to that which God at first made Man to be?
A39261How can we possibly excuse our selves for this gross neglect?
A39261How could he testify his love and care of us more convincingly than he hath done?
A39261How know we, that we shall not die before?
A39261How long hath God already waited to be gracious?
A39261How long ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity; and the scorners delight in scorning, and fools hate knowledg?
A39261How long?
A39261How many calls and warnings hath he already given us to repent?
A39261How many hundreds yearly die in the heat and wantonness of their youthful blood?
A39261How many in the height of their security and confidence, sleeping in their beds, riding merrily on the rode, going busily about their common affairs?
A39261How many in the very fulness of strength and vigour?
A39261How many in the very throng of their worldly business, and whilst they are as busy as the Bee in gathering for old age?
A39261How many notable ways doth he daily exercise his loving- kindness towards us?
A39261How many of our temper hath the Devil got into Hell already, by persuading them''t is already too soon, till they find it too late?
A39261How many that delay from time to time, are, when they least fear it, knock''d down with a sudden blow?
A39261How much patience hath he had already to see himself dishonour''d by us?
A39261How often have we broken his New Covenant of Grace, and sinned against the greatest of Mercies?
A39261How sensible are we in the mean time, of the Dignity of our Nature, as we are Men?
A39261How stand my Accounts against the day of Judgment?
A39261How then should I hope to be Happy, and not Miserable, but by Pleasing and Honouring him in doing his Will, and Obeying him in all things?
A39261I have lived in all good conscience before God unto this day?
A39261I hearkned and heard( saith God) but they spake not aright; no man repented him of his wickedness, saying, What have I done?
A39261If a Man may act like a Beast, without Consideration, why should not God have made him like a Beast too, without Reason?
A39261If any one ask, What course is to be taken by those who have long delay''d their Repentance, but are not yet in appearance near unto death?
A39261If it be not, alas, what is it that we live for?
A39261If not, why are we so mad as to put it to the venture?
A39261If we do not, what can we mean by saying so, but this; That if we live, we will repent to morrow?
A39261If we will be saved, we must repent; and is it not a very foolish thing to stay till the whip drive us to it?
A39261If we will be so base as to delight in filthiness, why should not God with Indignation say, Let them be filthy still?
A39261Is he not the same God now, that he will be then, one and the same, unchangeable for ever?
A39261Is it all one to us what our End shall be, whether we shall be acquitted, or condemned in the day of Judgment?
A39261Is it all one whether we be under his Government, or our own Masters; under his power, or at our own command?
A39261Is it an unwarrantable presumption of the greatness of God''s Mercy, or of his unwearied Forbearance, that is the cause of our delay?
A39261Is it not very comfortable to be confident of God''s love and favour, of his fatherly blessing, and of his special care and providence?
A39261Is it not, that we are by our Baptism engaged to live in Sin no longer?
A39261Is it now a careless, negligent and unconsidering temper of mind that is the cause of our delay?
A39261Is it now possible that any one can make too much haste to get into this comfortable Condition?
A39261Is it the love of our sins wherewith we are bewitched, so that we are not able to part with them, and therefore delay our Repentance?
A39261Is it the same thing, whether we be holy or unholy; lovely or abominable in the pure Eyes of God?
A39261Is not our delaying our Repentance the likeliest way in the World to provoke Almighty God to send out one of these swift Arrows to destroy us?
A39261Is nothing of this worth our serious Consideration?
A39261Is the cause of our delay a secret root of Atheism or Infidelity, a disbelief of God, and of his Word?
A39261Is there not as much reason now to move us to keep the Commandments of God, as ever there will be hereafter?
A39261Is this the way to oblige God to be more liberal of his Grace unto us hereafter, to turn his Grace already given us into wantonness?
A39261Is to Dishonour him as long as we can, the best way to assure us of his help in time of need?
A39261It is a Sin against the Gospel of Christ, which is the only foundation Sinners have to raise their hope of Salvation upon?
A39261It is natural and unavoidable to us to think of something; and is it not reasonable then to think on something to some purpose?
A39261Know we how soon we must dye, or how we must dye?
A39261Know ye not( saith he again) that so many of us as were baptized into Iesus Christ, were baptized into his death?
A39261Let us seriously consider now, what''s the plain English of all this: Are we not afraid, lest God should understand it?
A39261Makes it no matter, whether the time of this life be wisely improved, or vainly wasted?
A39261May we not be suddenly taken with an Apoplexy or a Lethargy, with a Phrenzy, or Melancholy, or Dotage?
A39261May we not be tempted out of the way to life, ere we are aware of it, by a thousand temptations for want of considering?
A39261May we not become mad or foolish, and so distracted and crazed in our heads, that we can not at all consider either what we do, or what we should do?
A39261May we not fall asleep, and sleep on securely, till all be in flames about us, and there shall be no escaping, nothing but terror and amazement?
A39261Mine own, or his whose I am, and who alone can make me happy?
A39261Must not this idolized Body of mine by and by rot in the Earth?
A39261Must vile Sinners have the command of God''s Ear?
A39261Need I use arguments to convince us, that one can not make too much haste to be a good man?
A39261O how shall we then escape for neglecting so great Salvation?
A39261O why then should we now lose the opportunity we have, and giddily venture thereby suddenly to fall into that remediless condition they are now in?
A39261O why will we deal worse with God, and our own Souls, than we are wo nt to do with any thing else of the meanest concern to us?
A39261Or have I blotted out by repentance all that will not pass then for good?
A39261Our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our Conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity we have had our conversation in the world?
A39261Run we not a great hazard in doing so?
A39261Shall we be so mad as to live to no other end, but to have time enough to make our selves intollerably wretched?
A39261Shall we defer our Repentance till it will do us no good?
A39261Shall we toil like Oxen in the dirt of this World, merely to defile our selves, and make our selves odious in the sight of our heavenly Father?
A39261Shall we trifle away all our time in sin, and folly, and vanity, to this good End, That we may be the surer of an eternity of Torments and Sorrow?
A39261Shall we( saith he) that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
A39261Was it not this we promised, To keep God''s holy will and commandments all the days of our life?
A39261We are sensible that we are guilty of many sins; and who is not so, that believes what he reads in Scripture?
A39261We can not chuse but know what filthy leprous creatures sin hath made us: And why are we in no more haste to be cleansed and made whole?
A39261Well, but now consider it in earnest; Is there not a great deal of danger in driving it off till hereafter?
A39261Were not some of them so too, who died the other day; and thought they not themselves as likely to live as any of us can be?
A39261Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination?
A39261Were we become weak?
A39261What Trade can a man drive on thrivingly in this World, if he make his Conscience too soon tender and delicate?
A39261What a madness is this, not to do to our comfort now, what if we do not now, we must do hereafter to our sorrow?
A39261What a vile degeneracy is this that we are sunk into, That we should fall so deeply in love with our own dishonour, as to be loth to part with it?
A39261What am I spending my time and labour in?
A39261What am I to do with my self and what I have, but that for which I was made, and for which all that I have was given me?
A39261What an unaccountable madness is it, instead of making our Calling and Election sure, to make them every day we live more and more uncertain to us?
A39261What an untoward humour is this in us?
A39261What assurance can any of us have, that we shall have an hereafter to repent in?
A39261What can we imagine should bring us out of love with sin more then, than now?
A39261What else can be the reason why we should delay one minute to keep God''s Commandments?
A39261What folly is it to drive off our Repentance, till we be scourged and lash''d unto it?
A39261What haste would we then be in to make as sure as we could of escaping those dreadful Torments, the very thoughts whereof seem torment enough?
A39261What have I done?
A39261What have I left undone?
A39261What is it that I am a doing in this World?
A39261What is it that should hinder us from making what haste we can to be happy, in hearkning to so good and gracious a God and Father?
A39261What is it that we think will alter it?
A39261What is it then, whereby any one can possibly provoke God to withdraw or withhold his Grace from him?
A39261What is it, but to slight all God''s gracious tenders of Peace and Reconciliation, as things we think as yet needless, and not at all to be valued?
A39261What is our life?
A39261What makes men more careless and secure in their sinful Courses, than long impunity and forbearance?
A39261What means he by saying, We are dead to sin?
A39261What more obliging course can we imagine God could have taken to bring Sinners in love with Him, and their own Happiness?
A39261What needs any one care how he lives, if he can be sure of Grace enough to save him at any time before he die?
A39261What obligations to God can we be sensible of in all the great things which he hath wrought for us, whilst we mind them not?
A39261What one of a hundred of us, makes Religion his business?
A39261What probability is there, that any Resolution of repenting hereafter, is sincere?
A39261What reason can we find to persuade us, to think such a Repentance to be the true Repentance, to which Pardon and Salvation are promised?
A39261What strange Agonies of Soul have many dying sinners fallen into, who have lived jovially all their days?
A39261What though we be young, and lusty, and healthful?
A39261What thoughts have some of us, it may be, had, when in some fit of sickness we apprehended Death approaching near us?
A39261What would the Damned in Hell now give, that either they had consider''d when they would not, or could not now consider when they must?
A39261What''s the reason we should delay to have Christ formed in us, to be made Partakers of a Divine Nature in Holiness?
A39261What, for some few days of their life, or for the whole remaining part of it?
A39261What, is it the business of our lives, to make our selves Everlastingly Miserable?
A39261What?
A39261When therefore will we repent, that we may be out of danger?
A39261When we can not hinder our thoughts from being busie, is it not fit we should set them on work for our good?
A39261When we say, we will repent to morrow; do we know whether we shall be alive or dead to morrow?
A39261Whence can this proceed, but from inconsideration, or want of thinking on things as Men should do?
A39261Wherefore hath he made so many Gracious Promises to the Faithful and Obedient, and Threatned such terrible things to unbelievers and wicked persons?
A39261Whether it shall be then said to us, Come ye blessed, or depart ye cursed?
A39261Who Considers it?
A39261Who can Repent of the Sins which he hath not duly Considered, with all their aggravations?
A39261Who can chear up his Soul in God, and rejoyce in the Lord?
A39261Who can dwell with Everlasting Burnings?
A39261Who can improve the Blessings of God to God''s Honour, and the good of himself and others, that seldome thinks of them?
A39261Who can make me Happy, but he who made me and all things?
A39261Who gave me what I have but God?
A39261Who made me but God?
A39261Who placed me here on the Earth but God?
A39261Who then that is wise will venture one moment longer on such an uncertainty?
A39261Who will call me to a reckoning for all I have, and all I do, but he who gave me all, and hath given me Rules whereby to dispose of all?
A39261Who would think, that a Reasonable Creature should be so Senseless?
A39261Whom am I to Praise and Glorifie, but him, from whom I and all things came, by whom I and all things are preserved?
A39261Whom have I to Please, but him whose work I am to do?
A39261Whose Orders am I to follow in spending my time, my estate, my strength of mind or body, but his who hath committed all these things to my trust?
A39261Whose Servant am I, but his who feeds me, and who alone can Reward or Punish me?
A39261Whose am I, but the same God''s that made me?
A39261Whose will am I to do?
A39261Whose work have I here to do, but his who sent me hither?
A39261Whose work have I to do, but his whose I am, and who can and will call me to account?
A39261Why are we no more ambitious to retrieve the Honour and Glory which by sin we have lost?
A39261Why do not we think our selves concern''d to prevent all these evils?
A39261Why make we not all sure now whilst we can, seeing we know not how soon it will be, that we can not?
A39261Why not now, as well as hereafter?
A39261Why should he?
A39261Why then make we no more haste to keep them, and to enter into this most Honourable and Blessed Condition?
A39261Why?
A39261Will God hear his cry when trouble cometh upon him?
A39261Without this use of Reason, what difference can there be betwixt us and Mad- men?
A39261Yea, can any one chuse but see, that what he doth must needs be altogether as odious and abominable to God, as it is base and reproachful to himself?
A39261Yea, how many severe Judgments might we escape in this life, did we well consider?
A39261Yea, will some say, who knows not this?
A39261and alway be ready at his beck, and come at his call?
A39261and what pity can we deserve if we die?
A39261but that he goes on without consideration?
A39261intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it?
A39261shall we tire and wear out our selves, merely to destroy our selves?
A39261what are we all our life long a labouring for?
A39261where is thy sting?
A39261where is thy victory?
A39261whether we be fitted in time for mercy, or stay till it be too late?
A39261whether we have a Saviour, or no Saviour; be reconciled to God, or at enmity with him?
A39261whether we shall for ever rejoice in Heaven, or burn in Hell?
A64642& c. What hast thou that thou hast not received from his bountiful hand?
A64642( i. e.) whether there be any justification at all or no?
A646421 Knowledge, that''s a thing requisite: Why?
A646422: But suppose thou prevent everlasting death by repentance, yet what profit is there of those things whereof we are now for the present ashamed?
A646423. saith, There shall be perillous times: And wherein lieth the peril?
A646429. that included himself in the number of the offenders, though he had no hand in the offence: O our God( saith he) what shall we say?
A64642A blow lighting on Gods fellow, equal with God, of what value is it?
A64642A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, untill he send forth judgment unto victory?
A64642A cursed and desperate Doctrine they conclude hence: Why( say they) may not this man be saved as well as the best?
A64642A dead man then hath his walk you see: a strange thing in the dead, but who directs him in his course?
A64642A man now in this estate is weigh''d down, what will he be six, seven, or ten years hence, going on in his impenitency?
A64642A pair of turtle doves or two young Pigeons: But was this the Law?
A64642Again, how comes this peace to wicked men?
A64642And again, Do we not say, well, thou art a Samaritan, that is, a Heretick?
A64642And are not our proceedings in Judiciary Courts after this manner?
A64642And by this means we fall into the temptation of Eve, a questioning whether Gods threats are true or not?
A64642And for a man to be brought before Gods Judgment- seat, and have nothing to answer, how will it fare with him then?
A64642And here may some say, is there any of us who can avouch that he eats and drinks at the Lords Table worthily?
A64642And how doth he take his Priest- hood upon him?
A64642And it is the more dangerous; for who is in more danger then he that is blind and will be blind?
A64642And may not God say the like to us?
A64642And may one fasten comfort on one in such a condition, on a dead man?
A64642And remission of sinnes hath relation to those that are past, as appears by inevitable reason; for what is remission of sinnes, but sinne covered?
A64642And shall this serve to excuse thee, by comparing thy self with others that are worse?
A64642And the drift of the place is this, when the Spirit shall come, how?
A64642And this is made a point of faith: Believest thou this?
A64642And this kinde of justification must of necessity be by imputation: why?
A64642And was not this a shame thus to be stripped before thousands?
A64642And what impudency is it in them to go about to cut off that which is the whole comfort of a Christian?
A64642And what is the reason?
A64642And what is the second death?
A64642And why should we suffer Satan to abuse us thus?
A64642And ye, wherein ye walked,& c. But who are they?
A64642Are there any common graces and natural endowments in the miserable soul?
A64642Art thou a Minister?
A64642Art thou faln into sin?
A64642As Philip told the Eunuch, if thou believest with all thy heart, thou mayest: If with the heart: but with what faculties may you say?
A64642As appeares in Hezekiah, who though he were a good man, yet with how sad a heart doth he entertain the message of death?
A64642As long as thou continuest in a course of rebellion, what hast thou to do to talk of peace?
A64642As when a Scholar is whip''t for not saying his lesson, is he whip''t think you for nothing?
A64642At his Fathers Trade, I say, for so it s said of him, Is not this the Carpenter?
A64642Awake thou that sleepest,& c. Unless this awaken us, in what case are we?
A64642Because I do something that God requires, shall I think I do as much as I need?
A64642But O Sir, you are a great Patron of free- will: What?
A64642But can there be a greater sin then the sin of Sodome?
A64642But did God leave these Jewels amongst men to be trodden under feet by such swine; shall they not dearly pay for it?
A64642But doth God justifie the ungodly?
A64642But doth this Lamb of God take away all the sins of the world?
A64642But how is it with thee?
A64642But how?
A64642But if it be so, I ask such, What is the benefit and advantage of the Jew more then the Gentile?
A64642But if this be so grievous, what is it to lose Heaven?
A64642But is there not a third thing that the work of the Ministry must do?
A64642But may some say, I have tryed and examined my self, and I do not finde that Christ is in me; what am I a reprobate therefore?
A64642But may some say, what needs this haste, may we not use leisure?
A64642But now cometh a greater question; If by justification our sinnes be forgiven us, what sinnes are forgiven I pray?
A64642But now what parts hath justification in it?
A64642But now when I am come thither, what do I say there?
A64642But now you will say, when I have sinned afterward, how come I then to be justified?
A64642But now, where are we thus shut up?
A64642But then again, when thou art thus pulled asunder, what becomes of the parts separated?
A64642But then what need a man look for a great faith?
A64642But this forgivenesse of sinnes, what doth it free us from?
A64642But what is my actual election?
A64642But what is sinne nothing?
A64642But what is the remedy of this fear?
A64642But what is this second death?
A64642But what needs such haste, I may do it hereafter, when I come to my journeys end?
A64642But what shall I get by him, then saith the wife?
A64642But what then?
A64642But what was the end of their doing thus?
A64642But what was the reason hereof?
A64642But what''s become of the soul now?
A64642But what''s the answer?
A64642But what''s the reason men should thus stand more in fear of men then of God?
A64642But what, did God care for these things?
A64642But when we come thither, what must we do?
A64642But which is that day?
A64642But who should this man be?
A64642But why should Christians be so foolish, so troubled?
A64642But why should God select this vertue among others that are more noble?
A64642But why then do I pray for it?
A64642But with whom is this peace?
A64642By his knowledge shall my righteous servant justifie many: Knowledge is an Act primarily requisite to Faith?
A64642By the way then take notice ▪ of the filthinesse of sinne; how filthy is it, that the Lord compares it to the vomit of a dog?
A64642By whose means?
A64642Can I shew that there is any such humiliation as this?
A64642Can any sin be so great as to over- top the value of Christs blood?
A64642Can it be expected that we should have our good in this world, and in the world to come too?
A64642Can they make any impression?
A64642Can you offer God a greater wrong and indignity?
A64642Canst thou but humble thy self?
A64642Canst thou have a better word from thy Prince then this?
A64642Canst thou think there is no more required but onely the outward Baptism, or that there is no more in Baptism but the outward washing of the flesh?
A64642Consider the particulars of it, he took on him the form of a servant; Was not this a great humiliation?
A64642Cut down this fruitlesse tree, why cumbers it the ground?
A64642Despisest thou the riches of Gods grace, not knowing that the long- suffering of God leadeth to repentance?
A64642Despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance?
A64642Despisest thou the riches of his goodness, and forbearance, and long- suffering?
A64642Did Christ suffer the pains and torments of Hell?
A64642Did not you tell me that it was not every faith that did justifie, but a working faith?
A64642Do we think God is not in earnest with us?
A64642Do you t ● ● ● k it a small matter to be the Kings son?
A64642Do you think the members of the body, which have been the instruments, shall escape?
A64642Do you thus requite the Lord you foolish and unwise?
A64642Do you thus requite the Lord?
A64642Does God at the first Preaching of the Gospel begin with Adam by Preaching Christ, before he saw his sin and wickednesse?
A64642Doest thou not fear, I say, that dismal sentence, cut it down, why combreth it the ground?
A64642Dost thou finde in thy self an hungring and thirsting after Christ?
A64642Dost thou harden thy heart?
A64642Dost thou see the wine poured out?
A64642Dost thou think God will take this at thy hands?
A64642Dost thou think a dead faith can make a living soule?
A64642Dost thou think he will drink the dregs, and eat the orts?
A64642Dost thou think this the way to make thy peace with God whom thou hast offended, as long as thou mayst to be a rebel against him?
A64642Dost thou( saith God) lift thy self up against him before whom all the powers of Heaven do tremble?
A64642Doth not he injoine us to do it?
A64642Doth the God of love teach us hatred?
A64642Every word is as it were a thunder- bolt: and was it not time, when it was thus with them for God to bring a flood?
A64642Exaltest thou thy self against him who inhabiteth Eternity?
A64642Examine then, what need have I to eat my meat and drink?
A64642Examine thy self then, does the working of the Word rub and gall thee?
A64642Faith when it comes, empties thee of all that is in thee: To whom be the Gospel preached?
A64642Fear not, why?
A64642First, Against the first Table, they accuse him of Blasphemy, and therefore condemn him in the Ecclesiastical Court: Do you hear his Blasphemy?
A64642First, he enlightens me, and so he is made unto me wisdome; well, he is my Priest; how so?
A64642First, in this life he is alwayes a dying man: Man that is born of a woman, what is he?
A64642For what is the glory we shall have in heaven but the inlargement of those inherent graces God begins in this world?
A64642Get?
A64642Go offer such a gift to thy Ruler, to thy Prince, will he accept it, or be pleased with it?
A64642God hath given thee an express command to the contrary, and yet hast thou done this?
A64642God justifieth, who shall condemn?
A64642God will not like with it, when we serve our selves first with the best and choise?
A64642God would have me renew my acts of faith; and if of faith, why not of repentance, and of prayer?
A64642Had he taken the form of a King upon him, it h ● d been a great humiliation; how much more, when he took on him the form of a servant?
A64642Hast thou no Will to Christ?
A64642Hast thou then a faith that causeth thee to love God, a working faith, and a faith that will not suffer thee to do any thing displeasing to him?
A64642Hath Christ knocked, and thou hast given him a slievelesse answer, and hast thou joy?
A64642He cryed, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
A64642He held fast to God; Why hast thou forsaken me?
A64642He might stand upon his priviledge: Of whom do the Kings of the earth exact Tribute?
A64642He said unto me, what seest thou?
A64642How am I made partaker of Christs Prophetical office?
A64642How can it be?
A64642How cometh it to pass that we are so careless of death?
A64642How did God take away his judgment?
A64642How doth he gather this from his crying?
A64642How is Christs righteousnesse imputed to me?
A64642How many motions to good hast thou rejected?
A64642How must this be done?
A64642How then could this threatning hold true?
A64642How will he then shake that off, which now he can not free himself of?
A64642How?
A64642I am required, may some say, to be a new man, a new Creature, to lead a new life: I must alter my course: and is not this a great clog and burthen?
A64642I counsel thee to buy of me gold tryed in the fire: Why?
A64642I gave thee other gifts of mind, how didst thou imploy them?
A64642I had need to speak of this, for there is want of the exercises of faith; is it enough think you to have faith once exercised?
A64642I say, how can I be justified in the first sense any other way than by imputation?
A64642I say, no doubt but he may; and why?
A64642I should now come and descend unto the dependence one hath on the other:( i. e.) in what respect doth faith justifie?
A64642I take away the ill office you did me: Doth he forgive thus?
A64642If a man put away his Wife, and she go from him, shall he return unto her again?
A64642If a man should ask, may I love my Neighbour?
A64642If a man should take the excrements of a beast to adorn himself, would not we think him an ass?
A64642If another man should look on you both, would he not account thee partial?
A64642If he see thy sins, and would fain come in, what an encouragement hast thou to open?
A64642If it be a free gift why is faith required?
A64642If one bear holy flesh,& c. shall he be unclean?
A64642If the bare acceptation of Christ with a trembling hand will not make thee sure, what canst thou have more than the bare receiving of a gift by faith?
A64642If the son of a temporary Prince be free, how much more shall the Son of God be free?
A64642If this be the esteem and worth of David, what is the worth of Davids Prince?
A64642If thou say, I have done my best; and what, would you have a man doe more then he can doe?
A64642If thou wilt not let him in, is it not good reason that( as in the Canticles) he with- draw himself?
A64642If thus with a King ▪ what with the King of Kings, and Lord of Lords?
A64642If you offer the blind for sacrifice, is it not an evil?
A64642If you offer the lame and sick, is it not evil?
A64642If you stop your ears, who can help it?
A64642In a mans first conversion there are but beginnings of grace; what is faith, hope, patience and fear?
A64642In deaths often?
A64642In like manner may some say touching the Ministry of the Word; May not I read a good Sermon at home with as much profit?
A64642In respect of our selves; To the end the promise might be sure to the seed; what is the reason why people doubt and think nothing sure?
A64642Is faith an instrument to work justification, or to receive it only?
A64642Is it love doth constrain thee?
A64642Is it not need to make haste( when the pursuer of blood follows) to the City of Refuge?
A64642Is not this evil, saith the Lord, to offer me such a corrupt thing?
A64642Is there any moral vertue?
A64642Is there any now in this congregation who is so hard- hearted, as to refuse such a gift as this?
A64642Is there any profit or delight in breathing forth blasphemies?
A64642Is there any such necessity of it?
A64642Is there no Physitian there?
A64642Is there no balme in Gilead?
A64642Is there not required a condition of faith, and a condition of obedience?
A64642Is ● t fit to take the childrens bread, and cast it unto dogs?
A64642It is fit every man should know this; This part is only for this end, that it may awaken us, otherwise to what purpose do we preach unto you?
A64642It s a great fault to bind a Citizen of Rome and a Gentleman, what is it to beat him?
A64642It''s a day of salvation, and would not we be glad to know this time?
A64642It''s said in the Canticles, honey is under the lips of the Church; why so?
A64642Its Jobs Metaphor: Job in his passion saith, Is my strength the strength of stones?
A64642Know you not your own selves, that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?
A64642Let him that hath common understanding judge, Do we forgive our neighbours by extinguishing sinne in the subject?
A64642Look therefore to thy peace; is it such a peace as thou hast never found any conflict, any stirring, striving betwixt the strong man and the weak?
A64642Lord, Why art thou so angry with me?
A64642Mark the ● postle, How shall they call on him, on whom they have not believed?
A64642Mark then: what''s a hard heart?
A64642Mark what''s the judgement he eats: why this?
A64642Mark, the Apostle would have Gods Ministers to be humble and meek; but how many are of other spirits?
A64642May not a young man die soon?
A64642May there not be actual rejection as well as actual election?
A64642My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
A64642Nay, what shall we think of hell, when the King of Heaven shall command it to be heated seventy times seven times hotter then before?
A64642Never forget that place while you live: it s the close of Gods H. Book, and the sealing up of his Holy Book: What''s that?
A64642No Will to salvation?
A64642Now Bellarmine saith, this can not be; but doth he dispute against our opinion?
A64642Now all their thoughts were evil: What, was there no kind of goodnesse in their thoughts?
A64642Now another thing is, Who is this peace- maker?
A64642Now can a thing be covered before it be?
A64642Now doth that hinder the freeness of the gift, to say, you must take it?
A64642Now how can we avoid Gods being the Author of sin?
A64642Now how shall this man that is guilty of murder and adultery, be made just?
A64642Now if it be thus in the point of election, what must we think of the point of reprobation?
A64642Now is it safe think you to pass this day?
A64642Now is my soul troubled, and what shall I say?
A64642Now our Saviour, notwithstanding after he had travelled that weary journey to Jerusalem, must return again, and be subject to his Parents: but how?
A64642Now some proportion there might be between David and the drunkards, Job and these men; but between thee and God what proportion can there be?
A64642Now that he ascended, what is it, but that he descended first into the lower parts of the earth?
A64642Now the just shall live by faith; What is that?
A64642Now what is a new creature?
A64642Now what is repentance?
A64642Now what madness is it to neglect it?
A64642Now you will ask, Is there not an earnest and good desire in a temporary faith, a desire unfeign''d?
A64642Now, how could this assumption hold, if imputation of righteousnesse, and remission of sinnes were two distinct acts?
A64642O Ephraim, saith the Lord, what shall I do unto thee?
A64642O Judah what shall I do unto thee?
A64642O Judah, what shall I do unto thee?
A64642Offer it now unto thy governor, will he be pleased with thee, or accept thy person, saith the Lord of hosts?
A64642Oh what a vexation will this be to the damned when they shall see others in heaven, and themselves shut out of door?
A64642On the contrary, how exceeding terrible will it be to be shut out from the presence of God?
A64642Open house- keeping, special invitations, Entreaties and Beseechings?
A64642Our evil deeds,& c. and how shall we stand before thee because of this?
A64642Seest thou how faith wrought with his works and by his works was faith made perfect?
A64642Shall God offer you such a proffer, and you be so presumptuous as to think such a one more seasonable?
A64642Shall a sick man be so mad as to say he is well, because others say so?
A64642Shall it be accounted a point of precisenesse to walk in this way, or a soul- torturing doctrine to preach it?
A64642Shall we look to goe to heaven in a way that was never yet found out?
A64642Should any of us be cast into a fire, what a terrible torment would we account it?
A64642Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellow- servant, as I had pity on thee?
A64642So God saith, Wilt thou have my Sonne?
A64642So should a poor soul come, and say to me, may I believe?
A64642So that we find the reason added in the Text, The Scripture concludes all under sin, why?
A64642So we have peace, but with whom is it?
A64642So, art thou a wicked deboist person?
A64642Suppose now I am not fill''d with Christ, What am I without him?
A64642Suppose there should come upon this man a fit of devotion, where he hath or should have some good motions, is it then accepted?
A64642That he is born and given, what''s that to us?
A64642That is, if he bring it not with a wicked mind, it is an abomination, how much more with it?
A64642That place taken out of the Psalm, I am come to do thy Will O God,& c. What, was it only in his active obedience?
A64642That the second person in the Trinity should stoop so low as to take on him the nature of one who is not worth the looking on?
A64642That''s a promise: But is it possible that teares should be wiped from our eyes before we shed them?
A64642The King when he was in France, went for an attendant on the Duke, and is he troubled at it?
A64642The Question is, What must I do in this case, what incouragement shall I have in my rags?
A64642The man that is my fellow?
A64642The question is now, whether you will choose Christ and life, or sin and death?
A64642The spirit of bondage, what is that?
A64642The very sinner against the Holy Ghost is invited; and why is that unpardonable?
A64642Then said Haggai, if an unclean person touch any of these, shall it be unclean?
A64642Then was the Lamb to be killed: By whom?
A64642Then''t is call''d superfluity of naughtinesse: But what, is there any naughtinesse to be born with?
A64642There''s nothing but goodnesse, infinite goodnesse in him, and canst thou find in thy heart to sin against so good a God?
A64642There''s the matter, whether God must wait on us, or we on him?
A64642Therefore cast away your sins, and make you a new heart and a new spirit, for why will you die?
A64642Therefore what infidelity is it not to be assured of it?
A64642These are the two priviledges that a justified man hath; he hath a gracious accesse unto God; Suppose he be in a fault,( as who is not?)
A64642They have wit enough, and can talk of Religion fast enough; but where is the obedience is required?
A64642They that have a temporary faith want nothing but the new creature; what''s that?
A64642They were pricked to the heart, and then they cried out, Men and brethren, what shall we do to be saved?
A64642They will in their affliction seek me early: was not this a fair returning?
A64642Thinkst thou that God makes use of threatnings for thy hurt?
A64642This I shall but touch: We have peace with God: But how?
A64642This bondage is a deadly bondage, that when we have done all that we can doe, what''s the payment of the service?
A64642This death, what doth it?
A64642This is a great encouragement; but it may be God will not alwayes do this, and what''s the reason?
A64642This is very true, but what is that to him?
A64642This makes them cry out, What shall we doe?
A64642This we think strange, what, thoughts defile a man?
A64642Thou art worth ten thousand of us: they would not hazzard the person of the King in the battel, Why?
A64642Thou base wretch, dost thou thin ● Heaven a place for thee?
A64642Thou must account all things as dung and drosse in comparison of him: and is not this a difficult thing?
A64642Thou that carest not for the knowledge of Gods wayes, what hast thou to do to take his Word into thy mouth, to tread in his Courts?
A64642Thou whisperest in the Priests eare; what if he never tell it, or if he do, art thou the better?
A64642Though he thus repent, shall he escape?
A64642Thy faith then must be a faith that worketh by love; can''st thou do those good works thou doest out of love?
A64642To entreaty is added Gods Command, and therefore if thou shalt argue, what warrant have I to believe?
A64642Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he offered up Isaac on the Altar?
A64642Was not this a great conversion?
A64642We are thus let loose, cleansed and freed; but how?
A64642Well then, art thou under the Law?
A64642Well then, doest thou think thy sinnes are forgiven thee; and that thou hast a strong faith, and yet art as prophane and as filthy as ever?
A64642Well, because there are worse paymasters, and he himself hath been a worse, doth this make him a better now?
A64642What a wonderful comfort is this?
A64642What an extream burthen would it be to us to be so long in the womb, and in ripe understanding?
A64642What can we look for, but the fig- trees curse which was barren?
A64642What canst thou tell what may then become of thee?
A64642What did their faith to them?
A64642What doth then new sinnes do?
A64642What folly is it to rest upon a good report from men, when I have it not from the truth?
A64642What fruit had you then in those things whereof you are now ashamed?
A64642What gain and profit is there in our blood?
A64642What high presumption is this?
A64642What is Gods election to me, that he chooses the godly, and refuses the wicked?
A64642What is sin?
A64642What is that to the purpose?
A64642What is the Object?
A64642What is the benefit of Christ?
A64642What is the exceeding greatness of his power to us ward that believe,& c. Mark, is to believe so easie a matter think you?
A64642What is the first resurrection?
A64642What justified by killing his son?
A64642What madnesse is it to frustrate the Almighty of his ends and purposes?
A64642What makes a man prompt in any thing but exercise?
A64642What makes a marriage?
A64642What needs passion?
A64642What presumption must that be, when we will go quite contrary to God?
A64642What saith the Apostle?
A64642What shall I come and say nothing?
A64642What shall we then doe?
A64642What shall we think then, that the Holy Ghost groans or speaks in prayer?
A64642What though a generation of men Call even the best of such, Antichristian Lyars?
A64642What though then we are sick to death?
A64642What though we have provoked God to indignation, must we be the matter for his wrath to work on?
A64642What would be thine estate, if thou shouldst be examined according to the strict rigour of the Law?
A64642What''s my Faith then?
A64642What''s that?
A64642What''s the best counsel in this case?
A64642What''s the meaning of that?
A64642What''s the reason of it?
A64642What''s the reason of this?
A64642What''s the reason of this?
A64642What, a base worm that crawleth on the earth, dust and ashes, and yet darest thou thy Maker?
A64642What, are his sinnes greater or more than they were formerly?
A64642What, are we dead in sins, not able to stir one foot in Gods wayes?
A64642What, art thou one that hast God on thy side?
A64642What, can we think these are fables?
A64642What, hast thou done it, as if thou wouldst do it on purpose to cross God?
A64642What, is the shooing of the feet a part of the armour?
A64642What, oppose thy self, a base creature, to Almighty God thy Creator?
A64642What, were there not many millions and generations more?
A64642What?
A64642What?
A64642What?
A64642When God convinces Adam, he proceeds thus with him: Hast thou( saith he) eaten of the tree whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldst not eat?
A64642When Moses came to the children of Israel, and told them God had sent him to deliver them, what acceptation found this comfortable message?
A64642When a man shall obstinately renew his grosse sins, doth he not deserve to be given up?
A64642When a rebel receives his pardon, is the Kings pardon abridged, because he must live like a subject hereafter?
A64642When he cometh into the world, saith he, Lo, I come, For what?
A64642When the Sunne shines, and its rayes come in, what a number of motes do we discover, which before we saw not?
A64642When these things are past, what profit will you have of those things whereof then you will be ashamed?
A64642When we come to talk of death, how doth it amaze us?
A64642Whence comes this?
A64642Where in times past ye walked according to the course of the world, according& c. Assoon as God leaves a man, what a fearful company assail him?
A64642Where is boasting, then saith he, it is excluded: By what Law?
A64642Where''s the difference then?
A64642Which of you intending to build a Tower, sitte ● ● not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it?
A64642Who art thou therefore that darest set thy self in opposition and rebellion against God?
A64642Who ever hardned his heart against God and prospered?
A64642Who knoweth the power of thine anger?
A64642Who shall lay any thing to the charge of Gods Elect?
A64642Who were they that were a far off?
A64642Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood; is that all?
A64642Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved: But how shall they call on him on whom they have not believed?
A64642Whosoever will let him come, what wouldst thou have more?
A64642Why do''s he not strike thee with a thunderbolt?
A64642Why does not God smite thee from heaven, when thou thus audaciously settest thy self against him?
A64642Why have we so little conversion?
A64642Why is this set down?
A64642Why should he else seek for the benefit of a subject?
A64642Why so?
A64642Why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered?
A64642Why then should I trouble my self any further?
A64642Why was this?
A64642Why will ye die?
A64642Why will you die?
A64642Why, saith God, I gave thee learning, how didst thou use it?
A64642Why?
A64642Why?
A64642Why?
A64642Why?
A64642Why?
A64642Will Christ offer violence to the Will, and draw a man against his Will?
A64642Will God damne a man, and send him to hell for nothing?
A64642Will the Papists tell me, I am bold if I go to God, or lay hands on Chrst?
A64642Will the hypocrite alwayes call upon God?
A64642Will this serve the turn?
A64642Wilt thou be reconciled unto me?
A64642Wilt thou be so hard- hearted as to put from thee Gods grace?
A64642Wilt thou come unto me?
A64642Wilt thou have my Son?
A64642Wilt thou have my Son?
A64642Wilt thou have this man to be thy husband?
A64642Wilt thou yield unto me?
A64642Would you know what it is to glorifie God in this world?
A64642You have now three words to make a man of an Unbeliever, a Believer: Is there, or can there be more then these?
A64642You that have abused your learning and gifts that God hath given you, do you think that they shall go with you to hell?
A64642and do you account this free?
A64642and what exceeds that, is it superfluity?
A64642and what not, did they not after this manner use* Christ and his Apostles before them?
A64642and with thy self, that because thou hast mended thy self in some particulars, therefore thou art in the way to Heaven?
A64642are we stronger than he?
A64642bad we are indeed: but dead, rotten, and stinking in sins and trespasses?
A64642be rais''d, and cast into hell to no purpose?
A64642because if there be a Remedy able to cure a mans disease: if he do not know it, what is he the better for it?
A64642blot out mine iniquities,& c. saith David; can a thing be blotted out, before it''s written?
A64642but Whether it justifieth at all?
A64642but Whether there be any such thing as justification or no?
A64642by the Law of works?
A64642do you think he will accept it at your hands?
A64642does our weaknesse make Gods strength more perfect, to which nothing can be added?
A64642doth it all lie in a mans Will: Will you make the matter of taking Christ lie there?
A64642false Prophets?
A64642firebrands of hell?
A64642how do they aggravate the depth of his humiliation?
A64642how shall the body choose but suffer too?
A64642how should the message be done, and fulfilled?
A64642how then doth faith alone justifie?
A64642how unworthy art thou of that high favour, if thou fear man?
A64642how will he torment thee?
A64642in how desperate and wretched a case will thy soul and body be?
A64642is any so presumptuous to say, that he is worthy to eat Christs flesh, and drink his blood?
A64642is it meant that he had taken away his wits?
A64642is this an easie task?
A64642it is excluded; by what Law?
A64642must we be the subjects of Gods wrath?
A64642no, it is so far from being accepted, that it is an Abomination to God, how much more then if he brings it with a wicked mind?
A64642of Baptism?
A64642of Faith?
A64642of the Church?
A64642of the Sacrament of the Lords Supper?
A64642of works?
A64642or is my flesh brass?
A64642quoties& Religio& timor( illo concionante) auditorum animos subierunt?
A64642shall I peece and devide the heart, when the whole is required?
A64642shall not that land be greatly polluted?
A64642sinnes past, or sinnes to come?
A64642suffered a while the vessels prepared to destruction?
A64642that positive thing which expels the other?
A64642that thou shouldst not only look upon him, but take him up,& make him an inmate under thine own roof?
A64642that we are so full of infidelity, that when the word of God saith, Thou shalt die Ahimelech, we are not at all moved by it?
A64642there is not so much wretchedness in the heart of man, as there is Grace, Goodness and Merit in Christ; but then it is unpardonable, Why?
A64642thou mayst say, I am afraid that God will not be friends with me; why?
A64642to defer and desire a longer time?
A64642to sins past alone, or to sinnes past and to come?
A64642to what end is that?
A64642was it not to shew his mourning for the death of its Maker?
A64642what a sinful man, and no sinne?
A64642what becomes of thy soul then?
A64642what comfort hath he by it, unless the King make him an offer to come,& take freely for his discharge?
A64642what is it that makes all these as so many deaths unto us but sin?
A64642what is that, untill he send forth judgment?
A64642what needs all this stirre?
A64642what should we do then?
A64642what to crucifie him?
A64642what when there is search made for sinne in such a man, shall it not be found?
A64642what''s that?
A64642what''s the reason the children of God do so disquiet themselves?
A64642what, as bad as the world, the devil, and flesh can make us?
A64642what, children of wrath?
A64642what, neglect Christ so much, as not to adventure on the tryal?
A64642what, so light a matter as a thought?
A64642when God shall say, avaunt hence, whip out this dog, what doth he here?
A64642when I must crucifie lusts, mortifie Passions,& c. Is this free when a man must renounce his own Will?
A64642where there are additions, The prayers of the wicked are an abomination to the ● ord: how much more when he brings it with a wicked mind?
A64642who would make delays and demurs, and not run as fast as his legs would carry him?
A64642whom the Angels do adore?
A64642why thinkest thou on peace, when thou art the chief rebel?
A64642why, he that hath such a faith as works by love: not a dead faith, but a faith that works: but how does it work?
A64642will he accept thee in the next world, when thou thus scornest him here?
A64642will it satisfie the Creditor, or discharge the debt?
A64642wilt thou despise him, and think he''l not despise thee?
A64642would you have Christ the wife, and you the husband?
A64642would you not think him a fool?
A416493. Who can produce the man that did really suffer in his estate by the loss of that time, which he spent with, and for God?
A41649A Saint or a sinner?
A41649A believer or unbeliever?
A41649Ah sinner, If the reading one leaf of this book was so dreadful to Iudas; how dreadfull and terrible will it be to thee?
A41649Ah sinner, What a terrour, what a torment will this be unto thee at that great day?
A41649Ah sinner, how should this prevail with thee to abandon thy sins, and to adventure on Jesus Christ as thy Lord and Saviour?
A41649Ah sinner, how will it then wound thy very soul to remember thy folly in neglecting thy season, and refusing so great salvation?
A41649Ah sinner, should not the bitter sting in sins tayle deter thee more, than the false beauty of its face allure thee?
A41649Ah sinner, sinner, how canst thou but quake and tremble at the thought of this fire?
A41649Ah sinner, sinner, whither wilt thou flee for comfort in the midst of thy distress?
A41649Ah, in what a woful case will thy heart then be?
A41649Alas the time on which my everlasting condition doth depend is very short: and must it not be egregious folly in me to trifle away part thereof?
A41649Am I in Christ, or in my sins?
A41649Am I of God or the Devil?
A41649And are not Christians under the Gospel, as well as those under the Law, obliged to offer up their Morning and Evening Sacrifice?
A41649And as you and yours daily partake of Gods mercies, is it not just and equal, that you all should daily bless God for the same?
A41649And can we imagine that Christ who seeketh after those who go away from him, will reject any who do in truth seek after him?
A41649And can we love our sins which kil''d our Saviour?
A41649And do you not daily sin against God?
A41649And doth not this call for thankfulness?
A41649And hast thou evidence of it?
A41649And hast thou lived all this while in so great danger, and wilt thou live in it still?
A41649And have not you as great a charge of your family, as the Minister hath of his flock?
A41649And have they not also, as such, special occasions of joyning in Prayer?
A41649And how should they teach them?
A41649And if Christ should be as forward to reject sinners, as they are to reject him, what hope of mercy were there?
A41649And indeed how canst thou live merrily or sleep quietly, so long as thou livest in thine unregenerate estate?
A41649And is he not the same yesterday, to day, and for ever?
A41649And is it not pitty to lose any thing of that which is precious and short?
A41649And is not this misery enough?
A41649And oh what a fearfull sentence must I expect from such a wronged, cont ● m ● ed, c ● raged, righteous Iudge?
A41649And oh what a joyful day will this be unto thee?
A41649And shall not the fear of everlasting fire in hell, make men do any thing to escape it?
A41649And shall not your Heavenly Father give to you the things whereof ye have need?
A41649And sinner, dost not thou tremble, who goest on impenitently in thy wicked and ungodly courses?
A41649And therefore what communion can there be between them?
A41649And thou my Son Brutus, art thou one of them?
A41649And what can be imagined to be the profit of mortification without vivification?
A41649And what is the Worm?
A41649And what more prevailing argument could he use, to perswade sinners to come unto him?
A41649And when will thy prophane heart be sanctified?
A41649And who greater in the New Testament than Paul?
A41649And who is there that hath seriously experimented this divine exercise, who doth not find abundance of sweetness and comfort in it?
A41649And why maist not thou be as soon taken away, having no Lease of thy Life?
A41649And will not this poor man rise up in judgement against many of us?
A41649And wilt not thou be thankfull for that which is the one thing necessary?
A41649And wilt not thou be thankfull to him for thy spiritual birth?
A41649And wilt thou not be as wise for thy soul, as for thy body?
A41649And wilt thou not bless him for making thee a new- creature?
A41649And wilt thou not bless him, that thou art not a Devil?
A41649And wilt thou yet be in league with it?
A41649And wilt thou yet perswade thy self that God is thine, when thou carest no more for him?
A41649And wouldst thou be cured of them?
A41649Are these the price of my soul, of my blood, of my peace?
A41649Are these the things for which I dye?
A41649Are they motions tending to the stirring thee up to any good duty omitted?
A41649Are they motions tending to the working in thee a loathing and abhorring of thy former sinful lusts?
A41649Are you content to dye in your present state?
A41649Are you not daily subject to dangers and temptations?
A41649Are you resolved with the grace and assistance of God, speedily to put your selves upon the practice of these Directions or no?
A41649Are you willing to be converted?
A41649Art thou a Child of God by Regeneration?
A41649Art thou a sinner, a willfull and impenitent sinner, and doth not all this belong to thee?
A41649Art thou a sinner, and not a pardoned sinner?
A41649Art thou assaulted with the temptations of Satan, and fearest that he may get the victory over thee?
A41649Art thou bound under any spiritual infirmities?
A41649Art thou conscious to thy self of the weakness of thy Faith?
A41649Art thou made alive?
A41649Art thou sensible of the working and stirring of corruption in thee, fearing lest it should get dominion over thee?
A41649Art thou willing to learn of Christ, to ask his counsel, what must I do to be saved?
A41649Ask them one by one, Whether the work of Regeneration be wrought in their souls?
A41649Ask thine heart this question, Is it certain there will be a day of judgement, or no?
A41649Be not then faithless, but believe, and say not, What shall we eat?
A41649Be undeceived betimes: how dreadfull will it be, if nothing but fire and ● ● ● mstone will bring thee to thy wits?
A41649Because thou art not sure of thine election, wilt thou make thy damnation sure?
A41649Between a pure God, and impure creatures?
A41649Between an holy God, and unholy creatures?
A41649But alas what were these to the outcryes which will be made?
A41649But alas, what is a boyling Caldron to that boyling Sea of fire and brimstone?
A41649But for the most part enquiring only, What have I done?
A41649But hearken sinner, wilt thou escape?
A41649But how fierce and dreadfull will this Furnace be, whose fire is unspeakably hotter, than that was at the hottest?
A41649But how was he alone when his Discipl ● s were wi ● h h ● m?
A41649But if the vileness of the work will not deterr thee, will not the dreadfulness of the wages neither?
A41649But in that day the great enquiry will be, What art thou?
A41649But let me ask thee, Dost thou offer up thy prayers in the name of Christ?
A41649But oh what light matters are apt to steal away our minds and thoughts in the performance of holy duties?
A41649But questionless in this place the word signifieth again: for so Nicodemus taketh it, verse 4. how can a man be born when he is old?
A41649But some are apt to object and say, how can I pray without the Spirit?
A41649But what are these to the lying in that lake which burneth with fire and brimstone to all eternity?
A41649But what is a day, or an hour, or an age, to eternity?
A41649But what is that to this mercy, that many thousands should fall into hell on thy right hand, and on thy left, and yet thou preserved?
A41649But what saift thou, is it good for thee to be here?
A41649But what was that in comparison of this?
A41649But when will the folly of fools depart from them?
A41649By the like means how sadly doth the Devil prevail upon souls daily?
A41649By what did God make all things?
A41649Can they not sanctifie God, and can they be accepted of God?
A41649Canst thou expect hereafter fulness of delight in the presence of God, and yet here have no delight in him at all?
A41649Canst thou expect hereafter to live in the everlasting love of God, and yet here have no true love to him at all?
A41649Canst thou let all sin go but this one?
A41649Canst thou think God will accept thereof?
A41649Christ is the beloved Son of God, with whom he is so well pleased, that likewise in him he is well pleased with all those that come to God by him?
A41649Consider how worldly men hugg their opportunities for the World; and wilt not thou embrace thy opportunities for Heaven?
A41649Consider the deceitfull nature of sin, which allureth thee with shews of pleasure, profit, credit, ease, and the like?
A41649Did he ever break his word with any poor soul, though never so unworthy?
A41649Did he ever cast away any who came unto him?
A41649Do we not see by daily experience, how Christ brings home some to himself in their old age?
A41649Dost thou bridle thy tongue; set a watch over thine eyes, and ears, and steps?
A41649Dost thou hear and read, and meditate on God?
A41649Dost thou highly prize an Heavenly mind, and account them the best and the happiest Christians, that are much in Heaven?
A41649Dost thou make nothing of the joy of a good Conscience, and the sweetness of uprightness and integrity?
A41649Dost thou put off Family- prayer for the multitude of Worldly bu ● inesse ●, thereby to encrease thy wealth?
A41649Dost thou put off praying with thy Family for the multitude of business?
A41649Dost thou study thine heart, and govern thy thoughts and affections?
A41649Doth Regeneration admit any degrees?
A41649Doth it not then concern thee speedily to bestir thy self, and not to lose a minute?
A41649First to the unregenerate: Is Regeneration absolutely necessary to Salvation?
A41649For are the greatest sinners ofttimes received to mercy?
A41649For as the Prophet Isaiah speaketh, who can dwell with devouring fire?
A41649For can they that are evill, know how to give good gifts to their Children?
A41649For hast thou been an Idolater, or Murderer?
A41649For how are their thoughts more upon the World, and the things thereof, than on Christ?
A41649For what Christian can rejoice when God deprives him of all sense and feeling of his loving favour?
A41649For what can it be but egregious folly, when you are feeding your bodies, to neglect your souls?
A41649For what did God see more in thee than in others, to move him to set his special love on thee?
A41649For who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean?
A41649For wouldst thou be content to run the hazard of such torments for thy present ease?
A41649For, whoever heard that the Scriptures were read, or Catechising used in any Family where Prayer was omitted?
A41649Hadst thou been taken away in the state thou art in, how sad had thy case been?
A41649Hast not thou said, thou wilt make this stone flesh?
A41649Hast thou any foul issue of Worldliness and Covetousness, of pride or frowardness, of passion or envy, or the like running upon thee?
A41649Hast thou been a Blasphemer or a Persecutor of the Saints and servants of God?
A41649Hast thou been a Filthy, unclean person, wallowing and delighting like a Sow, in the filth of sin, and mire of sinfull filthiness?
A41649Hast thou been an Oppressor and Extortioner, who hast got thine estate by over- reaching thy neighbours, and grinding the faces of the poor?
A41649Hast thou no faith?
A41649Hast thou not as much power to go into the house of God, as into an Ale- house?
A41649Hast thou resolved, through the grace of God, to abandon thy lusts?
A41649Hath Christ paid for my Redemption his most precious Blood, and shall I sell my soul to sin again for this fleshly pleasure, or base profit?
A41649Hath Christ promised this, and will he not be as good as his Word?
A41649Hath God promised, and is there no hope in the promise?
A41649Hath a miracle of mercy kept thee out of hell so long?
A41649Hath he bid thee come, and will he reject thee when thou comest?
A41649Hath he called, come ye holy ones, come ye righteous ones, come ye strong ones, and you only shall have rest?
A41649Hath he not invited the weak, and the weary also, the drooping and fainting soul?
A41649Hath there been a work of grace wrought upon thee?
A41649Have you not daily infirmities in your Family to be healed?
A41649Have you not daily wants to be supplyed?
A41649Having all thy life long broken the most holy and righteous Laws of God, what canst thou do less, than to get thine heart broken for the same?
A41649Having spent many years in sinning, what caust thou do less than spend some hours in mourning and sorrowing for the same?
A41649How can Adams posterity be guilty of his sin?
A41649How can Heaven be matter of joy to them who are never there?
A41649How can these things be?
A41649How carefull would I be of duty, how watchfull against sin?
A41649How comes Christ, and those things which he did and suffered in his own person to be ours?
A41649How did Ma ● asses imprisonment work for his good?
A41649How did the poor creatures run up and down for shelter in that deluge?
A41649How do their discourses run out more upon their riches, than on Christ?
A41649How do they rise earlyer for their Worldly businesses, than for their Prayers, or any spiritual exercises?
A41649How do they toyle and labour, spending their sweat and strength in seeking after riches?
A41649How dolefull think you, will be his death?
A41649How doth Christ instruct his Church?
A41649How doth it concern thee to retire into some secret place, and there seriously to ponder on this day of judgement?
A41649How eager and keen are their desires after the riches of this World?
A41649How exactly would I order my conversation?
A41649How great a fire may these little sparks kindle?
A41649How is God farther set forth unto us in his Word?
A41649How little care and pains have we taken to make sure for Eternity?
A41649How many Gods are there?
A41649How many Persons are there in the God- head?
A41649How many Sacraments are there?
A41649How many as strong and healthfull as thy self, have suddenly by death been snatched away?
A41649How many wayes do men fall into actual sins?
A41649How may we know when corruption is mortified in us?
A41649How oft in each day are we bound to pray with our Families?
A41649How oft would I have gathered thee?
A41649How often should we Pray with our Families?
A41649How open are the arms of mercy to embrace a penitent returning sinner?
A41649How will it make thee with anguish of heart to cry out, Ah silly wretch, where was thine understanding, to sleight such gracious invitations?
A41649How will they then beg and yell again for mercy to a judge that is justly inexorable?
A41649How will they then run like men distracted to the Mountains and Hills for covert and shelter?
A41649How wilt thou then endure to lye in a fiery flaming Furnace, not only an hour, or a day, but years, yea millions of years?
A41649How wise are those men who prefer Temporals before their Eternals, and will advance their estates upon the ruines of their souls?
A41649How would I bestir my self to work out mine own salvation?
A41649How would I contemn the World and the vanities thereof?
A41649I come to thy door, I lye at thy feet, a poor lost soul, an undone creature; Oh wilt thou take me in, and make me one of thy Disciples?
A41649I fear I am none of thine, but wilt thou make me thine?
A41649I would ask thee, whether thou canst in truth say, thou hast not been wanting to thy self in such things as were within thy power and strength?
A41649Iacob complained of Labans deceit about his wages: and what wilt thou think of thy wages when the pay- day comes?
A41649If Christ be so willing to receive thee, why shouldst not thou be willing to go unto him, and that with confidence of acceptance?
A41649If a man knew he must lye in a flaming fire but one day or hour, Oh what fear and horror would possess his soul?
A41649If any shall ask, how may I get my heart deeply affected with a sense of my miserable condition by nature?
A41649If any shall ask, how their sins shall be discovered to all the World at the last and great day?
A41649If it be certain; Oh then why do I not prepare for it, by breaking off my sins, and making my peace with God, before that day come upon me?
A41649If it be demanded What is the profit thereof?
A41649If none shall obtain grace but the worthy, who then can be saved?
A41649If one short nights pain be so tedious and grievous, what will that eternal night be?
A41649If the green Tree may so easily take fire, what will not the dry do?
A41649If therefore you who are Parents, and Masters of Families would discharge your duty herein: how would Errours vanish?
A41649If thou art not yet in a state of salvation, art thou willing to be saved?
A41649If thou canst not go to Christ as a Believer, wilt thou go to him as a Sinner?
A41649If thou look backward, what canst thou behold but all the filthy and abominable lusts of thy youth unrepented of?
A41649If thou look beneath thee, what canst thou behold but the bottomless pit into which thou art fallen, and still falling lower?
A41649If thou look downward, what canst thou behold, but hell deserved?
A41649If thou look forward, what canst thou behold but sudden destruction ready to seize upon thee?
A41649If thou look round about thee, what canst thou behold, but Devils and hellish furies, vexing and tormenting thee?
A41649If thou look within thee, what canst thou behold, but thy conscience polluted and defiled, yea accusing and condemning thee?
A41649If thou wilt no ● see the treachery of sin till it be too late to escape it?
A41649If upward, what canst thou behold but a provoked, enraged God?
A41649If vain and wanton thoughts be not st ● fled in the conception, what monstrous wickedness may they not bring forth?
A41649If without thee, what canst thou behold, but the wicked World which thou hast too much loved?
A41649If you are not yet, when will you?
A41649If you ask how they shall be summoned?
A41649If you ask wherein the glory of Christ shall appear?
A41649If you were now breathing out your last, and just passing into another World, would you not wish you had hearkened to counsel?
A41649In what estate did God make man at first?
A41649Is Adams posterity guilty of that sin?
A41649Is any man able to free himself out of that wofull plight whereinto he hath implunged himself by sin?
A41649Is it not meet then now to begin to make Conscience of your precious time, and to improve it better?
A41649Is it not the mercy of a God?
A41649Is it not thus with thee?
A41649Is it not thy will that I should believe thou wilt?
A41649Is it thy care to please, and in all things to walk worthy the Lord?
A41649Is not Regeneration of all mercies the most necessary?
A41649Is not the mercy of God infinite?
A41649Is not this thy Word, O Lord?
A41649Is the life of God begotten in thee?
A41649Is the word of God yea and nay?
A41649Is there any means to free man out of his corrupt and miserable estate?
A41649Is there hope, and wilt thou not lay hold on that hope?
A41649Is this a state to acquiesce in?
A41649Is this the state thou art so loth to be delivered from?
A41649Is this thy Wisdom to sin awhile, and burn for ever?
A41649Is this thy portion which hath hitherto been described?
A41649It is God that justifieth; Who is he that condemneth?
A41649It is found by experience that the most intelligent and best practised hearers are such, as have been well Catechised, and instructed?
A41649It is naturally engrafted into all Parents to provide for their Children: what then can they want who have God for their Father?
A41649Lastly, Art thou troubled with an hard and obdurate heart?
A41649Let the least occasion that is be offered unto us, how easily doth it take?
A41649Look back and consider, Is this thy state?
A41649Lord what am I among the Sons of men, that thou shouldest have respect to me?
A41649Lose not the Wind and Tide, the Wind may lye, the Tide may turn, and where art thou then?
A41649Maist thou not come into his Courts, and shalt thou enter into the holy of holies?
A41649May not a Godly man desire riches, seeing they are often in Scripture termed blessings, which God hath promised as a reward of his Service?
A41649Nay I dare appeal to thine own Conscience, whether it be not more comfortable to serve God, than the Devil?
A41649Now can carnal men thus sanctifie God?
A41649Now have not governours of Families, as such, special opportunities for joynt- Prayer?
A41649Now how was Christ made a sinner for us?
A41649Now if it were such a grievous misery to be vexed with one Devil; what is it to be vexed and tormented with all the Legions of Devils in Hell?
A41649Now what was their faith?
A41649Now, how canst thou expect the participation and enjoyment of this blessed estate without regeneration and renovation here?
A41649O my soul, what Talents of wrath and vengeance will this righteous provoked Iudge lay upon thee?
A41649Oh but what bitter crying and shrieking will there be in hell?
A41649Oh how darest thou sleep a night in that house, where God doth not dwell?
A41649Oh how doth this evidence his great willingness that poor sinners should not perish, but have everlasting life?
A41649Oh how many millions of Men and Women hath he suffered to live and dy in their sins, when thy soul liveth?
A41649Oh how seldome do we hear carnal men asking, What have I done?
A41649Oh how terrible is the thought of eternity in those tormenting flames?
A41649Oh repent therefore, and turn ye from your wicked wayes, for why will ye dye and perish eternally in your sins?
A41649Oh sinner, wouldst thou never come into this place of torment?
A41649Oh the shrieks which then filled the air?
A41649Oh then say not of Family- duties, as Iudas did of that oyntment, which Mary poured on our Saviours feet, why is this waste?
A41649Oh then what is the torment, which God in his fierce wrath inflicteth on the damned in hell?
A41649Oh then what stupidity and senselesness hath possessed the hearts of sinful men, who by all this are not frighted from their sins?
A41649Oh then, why wilt thou trifle away the time which is properly thine; and promise to thy self great things in a time which is none of thine?
A41649Oh this rock, this rock, when shall it be pierced?
A41649Oh what groanings and sighings, and lamentations will afflictions press out of me: but my sins, my sins, how little do they move me?
A41649Oh what terrour and trembling, what horrour and amazement will seize on their souls that have received this dreadful sentence?
A41649Oh when will it once be?
A41649Oh when wilt thou awake from this folly?
A41649Oh who can abide this scalding wrath?
A41649Oh who is able to dwell in this devouring fire?
A41649Oh why wilt thou neglect so great salvation?
A41649Oh wilt thou save this sinner, my sinfull soul, Lord?
A41649Oh wretch that I was, oh foolish, sottish wilful wretch, how have I undone my self?
A41649Oh, but what an heavy parting and separation will there be, when the one shall be set at the right hand of Christ, the other at his left?
A41649Oh, how terrible will the sight of Jesus Christ as Iudge be unto all carnal and impenitent wretches?
A41649One of them pittying him, could not but ask him, why he wept?
A41649Only he seemed once not to regard the Woman of Canaan, But why?
A41649Or in Mary Magdalen?
A41649Or in Paul before their conversion?
A41649Or in Zacheus?
A41649Or the righteous God with unrighteous men?
A41649Otherwise thy lusts may reply to thee, as the Devil did to the Sons of Sheva, Iesus I know, and Paul I know, but who are ye?
A41649Q Can any other creature deliver man?
A41649Q What are the kinds of sin?
A41649Q What are those esp ● cial benefits which believers receive from Christ?

A41649Q Which are the parts of Iustification?
A41649Q. Wherein consisteth the Providence of God?
A41649Q. Wherein did mans happiness especially consist, in which he was at first made?
A41649Q. Wilt thou say, thou art a greater sinner than any of these forementioned?
A41649Religion flourish?
A41649Seeing Christ hath dyed, who is he, shall lay any thing to the charge of Gods elect?
A41649Shall I implunge my soul into eternal flames for a little pleasure and short delight?
A41649Shall he promise and not perform it?
A41649Shall not thy soul be avenged of such an enemy as this?
A41649Shall there be no difference betwixt the Children of the Kingdom, and the Children of the wicked one?
A41649Sin shall not have dominion over you, saith the Apostle, and why?
A41649So much the Apostle expresseth where he saith, what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness?
A41649Soul how camest thou in hither?
A41649Suppose thou wert condemned to be cast( as many of the Martyrs were) into a boyling Caldron, or flaming fire?
A41649That thou shouldst no more fulfill the Lusts of the flesh, but walk in the Spirit, after the motions thereof?
A41649That thou shouldst no more give thy members as Servants unto sin, but as Servants unto righteousness?
A41649That which when it is once gone, all the World will not buy it back, what a cheap thing is it accounted?
A41649The pains of my body I can feel and roar under, but O what a stock am I under, the plague of my heart?
A41649The time which you have already lost can never be recalled?
A41649This Christ requireth of every true Christian: for, saith he, speaking to his Disciples, What do ye more than others?
A41649Thou art no longer contentious, or quarrelsome: but art thou a peace- maker?
A41649Thou art no longer earthly; but art thou heavenly minded?
A41649Thou art not unjust,( thou sayest) but doest thou shew mercy?
A41649Thou hast no longer fellowship with the ungodly, but art thou a familiar of the Saints?
A41649Thou wilt not now curse, or swear, or lye, or scoff, but dost thou pray and bless?
A41649Though their houses be never so well furnished, yet what comfort and content can there be found therein, when the curse of God is in them?
A41649Though thou wilt, live the life, yet art thou content to dye the death of the obstinate and hardned?
A41649To like purpose said God to his Prophet Ieremy for the strengthening his faith, Behold I am the Lord of all flesh, is there any thing too hard for me?
A41649To what heads may the works of God be brought?
A41649Truth, Lord, my sins are many and hainous: but this is my comfort, that Jesus Christ came into the World to save sinners, and why not me?
A41649Unless the image of God be renewed upon thee in holiness?
A41649WHo is the Maker of all things?
A41649Was the man without a wedding garment thrust out from his presence here below, and shall he be received into his mansion above?

A41649What''s the reason most mens hearts are so full of wicked wanton thoughts?
A41649What, to spend our dayes in mirth and jollity, and in a moment to be cast into hell?
A41649When doth a Christian stand in more need of the comforts of God, and when doth he enjoy more of them then when outward comforts do most fail him?
A41649When is it that your hearts are most cheerfull?
A41649When wilt thou leave thy Swearing, thy Drinking, thy Whoring, thy Covetousness, and the like?
A41649Where had been the benefit of Christs death, if he had not risen from the dead?
A41649Where is joy?
A41649Whereas alas, What is it to gain the World, and to lose our Souls?
A41649Who are like to taste of these Heavenly comforts, but those who go often thither?
A41649Who can sufficiently set it forth?
A41649Who greater than Mannasseh?

A41649Wilt thou say, that though the Lord be abundant in goodness, yet thou art fearfull whether he will extend his goodness unto thee?
A41649Wilt thou thus come to Christ?
A41649Wouldst thou have an Heavenly conversation?
A41649Wouldst thou not be enticed to sin?
A41649Yea with what freedom and delight do they talk of their wealth, and of the means of getting and increasing the same?
A41649Yet this let me say to thee also, if thou hast not faith, wilt thou go to Christ for faith?

A41649for a moments pleasure to incurr everlasting woe and misery?
A41649hope of deliverance, hope of salvation?

A41649oh how much might thy care this way abound to thy account?
A41649oh sinner, who art now grown old in sin, how long hath the Lord waited on thee?
A41649oh then what shall become of swearers, drunkards, whore- masters and such like in that dreadfull day?
A41649oh what answer will they be able to make, when the blood of their Children, and Servants souls shall be required of them?

A41649or at least after a further portion, and provision for themselves, Wives, and Children?
A41649or find any pleasure in his presence?

A41649the one taken into Heaven, and the other cast down into Hell?
A41649thine unclean heart be purified?
A41649to associate thy self with the Godly, as with the Wicked and Prophane?
A41649to be at ease and secure, to be so merry and jolly in?
A41649to be cast out of the presence of Christ, and society of Saints, and to have only the company of the Devils, and damned in hell?
A41649to become new men, and to take up a new course?
A41649to laugh a while, and howle for ever?

A41649to preferr every base lust before the Lord of life?
A41649to put off the turning from thy sins, and making thy peace with God till it was too late?
A41649to read the holy Scriptures, as Play- books and Pamphlets?
A41649to seek and to save them which are lost?
A41649to turn aside from him that spake unto thee from Heaven, and to turn after thy companions, and the pleasures of this earth?

A41649what for such a sinner, what from so great destruction?
A41649what heart can conceive the excellency thereof?

A41649what sighing and groaning?
A41649what snares doth he make of our voluptuous tables?
A41649what windows doth he make our eyes and ears, to let in temptation first, and then iniquity?
A41649where hadst thou been at this hour?
A41649where is comfort?
A41649whether will he se ● d me?
A41649whither wilt thou fly from the revenging hand of God?

A41649who can dwell with everlasting burnings?
A41649who hath sorrow?
A41649who having fire cast into his bosome or house, will not presently cast it out, and quench it?
A41649who then but a fool or a mad- man would adventure his eternal happiness upon such an hazard?
A41649who was a Sorcerer, an Idolater, a Murtherer, and what not?
A41649whom shall condemn?
A41649whose am I?
A41649why do I not labour for an interest in Christ, by whom alone I can be freed from eternal death and condemnation?
A41649why do I not now give all diligence to make my Calling and Election sure?
A41649why not me?
A41649why, is there any hope of that?
A41649why, wilt thou hearken?
A41649will he not let thee see his face at his Table, and will he let thee sit down with him in his Kingdom?
A41649will it ever be done, if thou dost it not?
A41649will not God meet thee at a prayer, and will he suffer thee to meet him in Paradise?
A41649wilt not thou do what thou hast said?
A41649wilt thou be delivered from all this?
A41649wilt thou bless him for that he hath made thee a reasonable creature?
A41649wilt thou bless him that thou art not a Toad?
A41649wilt thou go thus to Christ, Lord camest thou not into the world to save sinners?
A41649wilt thou let it live?
A41649wilt thou the redeemed?
A41649with a filthy and unclean heart?
A41649with a proud and barren heart?
A41649with a worldly, and covetous heart?
A41649would he be a messenger of good tydings, wouldst thou bid him welcome that should bring thee news of redemption from all this?
A41649would they then make such excuses, and make such delayes when Christ calls them to repentance?

A124731 Why the Lord fetcheth vs a Patterne from Heauen, and not rather from good men in this world?
A124731 when they were reproued of their sinnes, yet they say, wherein haue wee sinned?
A1247310 and why?
A1247312. Who can vnderstand his errors?
A1247314. saying, I haue neede to be baptized of thee, and commest thou to me?
A1247314. whose heart the Lord opened; that shee attended the things that were spoken?
A1247318. the Apostle sayes, Wherefore comfort your selues one another with these words, What words?
A1247319. his disciples came vnto him saying, Why could not wee cast him out?
A124732 How, and in what manner the Angels doe the will of God?
A124732 Of whom we aske it?
A124732 The second question is: whether a man is bound vpon his repentance to make restitution of that which is taken away by vniustice?
A124732 Vnsound Repentāce, what?
A124732 What will of God we must doe?
A124732 Why we must pray?
A124732. you may reade how faine would hee haue shifted o ● ● that sinne?
A1247321. our Sauiour speakes, That the Kingdome of God is come already: how then are wee directed to pray for that which is come?
A1247325. shewes, If one man sinne against another, the Iudge shall iudge him; but if a man sinne against the Lord, who shall intreate for him?
A124733 By what right?
A124733 I but if a man doe repent him of Particular sinnes, whether may hee fall into them againe or not?
A124733 In what manner we must doe it?
A124733 What be the duties required of them that pray?
A124734 What quantity of Bread wee pray for?
A124734. saith hee, Against thee onely haue I sinned: did hee sinne onely against God?
A124735 Whose Bread we pray for?
A124735. hee sayes, Once haue I spoken, but I will speak no more; yea twice, but I will proceed no further?
A124735. when he went to sacrifice his sonne, the text saith, that he left his seruant with the Asses, and why so?
A124736 For whom we aske?
A124737 For how long time?
A124737. askes, What hast thou that thou hast not receiued?
A12473A. Couetousnesse and greedy desire of gaine, for why doe men racke the prises of their Wares?
A12473A. Hee descended into hell?
A12473Adam would needs haue his owne will in eating of the forbidden fruit, but I pray you whose will was the better?
A12473Alas, doe wee looke for such forgiuenesse at Gods hands?
A12473And how can they liue like Fathers, that know not what belongs to the duty of a father?
A12473And how much is conuenient for vs?
A12473And may wee then safely enter vpon the day?
A12473And wherefore all this?
A12473Another point to be considered, is, why we first pray for our daily Bread, and afterwards for the pardon of our sinnes?
A12473Are all the Bookes in the Bible to be receiued alike?
A12473Are all things become new by Christ?
A12473Are all workes forbidden on the Sabboth?
A12473Are none but the Elect true members of the Church?
A12473Are none else faultie in this point?
A12473Are there no other things, wherein sobrietie must bee shewed?

A12473Are wee to rest our selues in this thing?
A12473Art thou come hither to torment vs before our time?
A12473As Naamans seruant said vnto his Master: If the Prophet had commanded thee a greater thing, wouldest thou not haue done it for thy health?
A12473Behold what loue the Father hath shewed on vs, that we should be called the sons of God?
A12473But I appeale to common experience, how hardly we are drawne to this duty?
A12473But alas, what shall I say?
A12473But are wee not free from the Law?
A12473But doe any of the Rulers beleeue in him?
A12473But how shall they call on him in whom they haue not beleeued?
A12473But how shall this be done?
A12473But how shall wee doe when the disease is violent, and death it selfe so terrible, that wee can not remember our consolation and comforts?
A12473But how?
A12473But more particularly let vs see what the Kingdome of grace is?
A12473But now, onely to wash and be cleane, what a thing is this?
A12473But what if a man bee not able?
A12473But what if the Master teach, and the Seruants will not learne?
A12473But what saith hee?
A12473But why doth the Lord heere mention Bread onely, and nothing but Bread?
A12473But 〈 ◊ 〉, Where shall we find that man, or that woman, who are thus carefull to search into themselues?
A12473By beleeuing that I haue many sins, a ● d those so great, that without the Lords mercy, I may bee iustly damned for them?
A12473Can a man( saith Salomon) take fire in his bosome, and not be burnt?
A12473Can a woman forget her child, and not haue compassion vpon the sonne of her wombe?
A12473Can the Aethiopian change his skinne, or the Leopard his spots, then may you also doe good who are accustomed to doe euill?
A12473Christ annexeth these, and doth propound Petitions without inforcing reasons?

A12473Euery mans Repentance therefore( as wee say) is imperfect, but how?
A12473Except a man bee borne of Water and the Spirit hee can not enter into the kingdome of God?
A12473First, it condemneth the couetous man who had rather say, Giue mee my Bread, then giue vs our bread, wishing well indeed to no body but himselfe?
