A53677 | Doth this way make a just Representation of the Spirit, the Meekness, the Holiness, the Love, the Patience of our Lord Jesus Christ? |
A53677 | How are these things represented unto us in the Gospel? |
A53677 | Is there any Nation in Europe that is not filled with our Bloud? |
A53677 | Is there any thing in the Gospel which gives countenance unto this way of imposing a Guide in Religion on the Minds and Consciences of men? |
A53677 | The present Question is, Whether of these two Guides such Persons ought to betake themselves unto? |
A53677 | The very horror of the Proposal is enough to secure the minds of any who have the least spark of spiritual Light or Grace, from a compliance with it? |
A53677 | Was there any thing like it in the Practices of our Lord Jesus Christ, his Apostles, or the Primitive Churches? |
A53677 | Who approved of the murder of the two Kings in France, one after another? |
A53677 | hath he commanded me to Read, Study, Meditate, and be conversant in it continually? |
A53677 | of the Massacre there of an hundred thousand Protestants? |
A53677 | shall I forsake God, and Christ, and the Holy Spirit, all the Prophets and Apostles, who daily speak unto me in and by this word, to comply with you? |
A53677 | was it a few Jesuites only? |

A53677 | who designed and blessed all preparations for the murder of Queen Elizabth; with the unjust Invasion of the Nation in 88? |
A53700 | Bring himself unto an Unconcernment, what becomes of it? |
A53700 | Can you not Pray? |
A53700 | Do you find a secret Joy in your Hearts, upon the Satisfaction you take in the proposal of this way unto you by the Gospel? |
A53700 | Doth the Glory of God in any measure shine forth unto you in the Face of Jesus Christ? |
A53700 | HERE then lieth the Enquiry, namely, How these two prevalent Desires may be reconciled and satisfied in the same Mind? |
A53700 | HOW doth saving Faith approve of this way? |
A53700 | Is any afflicted? |
A53700 | OUR next Enquiry is, what is that Approbation of this way of Holiness which we place as an Evidence of saving Faith? |
A53700 | Shall he then desire that God may part with and lose his Glory, so as that one way or other he may be saved? |
A53700 | The design of this ensuing Treatise is to resolve this great Question, Whether the Faith we profess unto, be true or no? |
A53700 | WHICH of these Desires shall the Sinner cleave unto, unto whether of them shall it give the Preheminence? |
A53700 | What is the way of Acceptance with God? |
A53700 | What shall we do to be saved? |
A53700 | Whence is it that I have deliverance from the Guilt of these sins? |
A53700 | Whence is it that my Soul and Conscience are purged from the stain and filth of them? |
A53700 | Would you have any other way proposed in the room of it? |
A53700 | are you satisfied in it, that it is such as becomes God, and answers all the glorious Attributes of his Nature? |
A53700 | let him pray: Is any merry? |
A53700 | shall he cast off all Hopes and Desires of his own Salvation, and be content to perish for ever? |
A53700 | that way was made for the advancing of Grace in the Pardon of them? |
A53700 | when they tend to encrease the Formality and Hardness of their Hearts, towards the ruine of their Souls? |
A53703 | And how foolish, senceless, and unbecoming of Men, would any other Thoughts be? |
A53703 | And what was the ground and occasion of the Quarrel? |
A53703 | And what wise man, methinks would not at length be contented, that these differences and indifferent things may be parted withal together? |
A53703 | But is this all? |
A53703 | Can he force himself to assent unto that, whereunto in truth he doth not assent? |
A53703 | Can then other men compell this assent? |
A53703 | For what if some Officers of Ecclesiastical Courts have been inriched by the booty they have got from Dissenters? |
A53703 | How can this be forced? |
A53703 | How shall he do to be otherwise minded? |
A53703 | Is it not to declare in the Soul, that if it practise these things, God will judge it the Last Day, and pronounce Sentence against him? |
A53703 | Is it not, in the first place, to apply the Mind and Understanding to consider of what sort it is, in referrence unto the future Judgment of God? |
A53703 | It is said therefore, Let Men take this liberty unto themselves: Who forbids them to judge of Themselves and of their Actions, what they please? |
A53703 | It is true indeed, that the Parliament have thought meet some years past, to direct unto another course of Proceedure? |
A53703 | Nay, if he have not constantly sound a severe Interdiction given in by his Conscience against all such things? |
A53703 | Order thereby, than what it may enjoy whilst Men have their Liberty to profess their dissent? |
A53703 | What advantage is it all this while to the Kingdom? |
A53703 | What if they offer to be instructed by any who will take that work upon them, in the things about which their differences are? |
A53703 | What if they plead conscience towards God, and that alone, in their dissent; it being evidently against their whole temporal interest? |
A53703 | What is answered unto this request? |
A53703 | What is the Work or Duty of Conscience in reference hereunto? |
A53703 | What then is the end of these things, of this Severity so earnestly pressed after, to be engaged into? |
A53703 | What though they are every way sound in the Faith, and cordialy imbrace all the doctrine taught formerly in the Church of England? |
A53703 | What though those in this condition are many, and such as in whose peace and industry, the welfare of the Nation is exceedingly concerned? |
A53689 | 29 Who is weak, and I am not weak? |
A53689 | 3. Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord, or who shal stand in his holy place? |
A53689 | 7. Who goeth a warfare at any time at his own charges? |
A53689 | And shall we be senseless of her reproaches who bears us unto Christ? |
A53689 | Are ye not then partiall in your selves, and are become Judges of evill thoughts? |
A53689 | Be not unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship hath righteousnesse with unrighteousness? |
A53689 | Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirit? |
A53689 | If we have sowen unto you spirituall things, is it a great thing, if we shall reap your carnall things? |
A53689 | Is the crime of a back- slider in spirituall things less? |
A53689 | It is written in the Law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the Oxe that treadeth out the corne; doth God take care for Oxen? |
A53689 | Just vindication of the Church against calumnies, and false imputations; who can endure to hear his parents in the flesh falsly traduced? |
A53689 | So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you? |
A53689 | Some delight to dwell alwaies upon a frailty; they deserve to find no charity in the like kind: For injuries, who almost can bear untill seven times? |
A53689 | Striving is unseemly for Brethren; why should they contend about the world, who shall joyntly judge the world? |
A53689 | THE greatnesse of the work, for which who is sufficient? |
A53689 | The best of them is but a brier, and who will leave their Pastor in such briers? |
A53689 | The strength of the opposition, which who almost can resist? |
A53689 | Who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? |
A53689 | Who planteth a Vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? |
A53689 | Would not such a thing be called villany? |
A53689 | and what communion hath light with darkness? |
A53689 | who is offended, and I burne not? |
A90265 | But may not this be a meanes for men to vent and broach their owne private fancies unto others? |
A90265 | The Lion hath roared, who will not feare? |
A90265 | The Lord God hath spoken, who can but Prophecy? |
A90265 | The Lord God hath spoken, who can but prophesie? |
A90265 | The Lyon hath roared, who will not feare? |
A90265 | Where is the law for that? |
A90265 | and how shall they do this? |
A90265 | and if God give a blessing to his endeavours, may hee not become a Pastor to the converted soules? |
A90265 | must they not beware of false Prophets, which come unto them in sheepes cloathing, but inwardly are ravening wolves? |
A90265 | or were they of human invention? |
A90265 | or what is there in all this more then God required of his ancient people, as I shewed before? |
A90265 | to foment and cherish errors in one another? |
A90265 | to give false interpretations of the word, there being no way to prevent it? |
A90265 | what way remaines, but a trying their doctrine by the rule? |
A90265 | yeild to every breath, to every puffe of false doctrine? |
A53727 | And could be Merciful, if all Men were to be damned; How could lost Man Redeem himself? |
A53727 | And hath not much of the Prophetick part been verified to the amazement of all those that duly consider it? |
A53727 | And what are the consequences of our Obedience in these things? |
A53727 | And what follows? |
A53727 | And whether he would choose to lie upon a Rack, or a Bed of Roses? |
A53727 | As, Who gave you Authority to call in question the Scriptures? |
A53727 | Brown is not the Author? |
A53727 | But if these things have no evil in them, why should any body be grieved at them? |
A53727 | From whence now should this proceed, but from the Fountain of all Righteousness, God Almighty? |
A53727 | How can he be said to believe the Truth, that would force another to believe a Lie? |
A53727 | How could God be Just, if Justice were not satisfied? |
A53727 | How know you the Scriptures to be the Word of God? |
A53727 | How know you the Scriuptures to be the word of God? |
A53727 | How know you the Scriuptures to be the word of God? |
A53727 | How many, and how punctually were the Prophesies, concerning our Redemption by Christ? |
A53727 | I demand therefore of our Adversaries, How they know that the Sun shines, or, that there are any Bodies in the World? |
A53727 | If any Man walk in the day,( saith our Saviour) he stumbleth not; Why? |
A53727 | If they have, why should any one do the like to his Neighbour? |
A53727 | Is it lest the Question should recur upon themselves? |
A53727 | Or, how come we to be assured, that our whole Life is any more than a Dream? |
A53727 | Or, how could he be saved, if he should suffer for himself? |
A53727 | Shall we now say, that this Book is a Forgery, a Cheat and Imposture of the Devil? |
A53727 | The first is, Where was your Religion before Luther? |
A53727 | Where was your Religion before Luther? |
A53727 | Where was your religion before Luther? |
A53727 | Where was your religion before Luther? |
A53727 | Who would trouble his head to Argue with such a Person, as should deny that two and three make five, or that the whole is bigger than the half? |
A53727 | Why may not all the Objects we discern about us, be certain Phantasms only, or Apparitions of the Brain, which have no real Existence in Nature? |
A53727 | Why might not our Adversaries demand of us, how we come to be certain, that God is Righteous and the Devil Wicked? |
A53727 | Will any man object and say, Where are those visible Characters of Divine Goodness contained in the Scriptures? |
A53694 | ( that is by his Adversary) an illi incumbebat opus& quidem servile, idque per sex dies? |
A53694 | Again; when are Believers supposed to Rest from these works? |
A53694 | And it shall be when thy son asketh thee in time to come, saying, What is this? |
A53694 | And what then is become of the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free? |
A53694 | And what was this Rest? |
A53694 | And wherein doth this include the blessing of the seventh Day? |
A53694 | But how can they be said to Rest from these works, as God rested from his own? |
A53694 | Do men in these things appeal unto the Law? |
A53694 | For is there any thing that we have received from God, that shall yield him no Revenue of Glory, whereof we ought to make no acknowledgement unto him? |
A53694 | For why did they not rather constitute twelve dayes, from the twelve parts of the Zodiack through which the Sun passing perfecteth the year? |
A53694 | It will be said, why then did not Nehemiah reprove them as well as he did the Jews? |
A53694 | The contrary appears with good evidence to me; For what are the works that Believers should be said here to Rest from? |
A53694 | Was it meerly Gods ceasing from his own works? |
A53694 | What Act of God is it, that can be here intended? |
A53694 | What Testimonies have we of the presence of God with any Churches, in the Administration of Gospel- Ordinances and Worship on that Day? |
A53694 | What ground have we now to imagine, that the Holy Men of old were left without Divine direction in this matter? |
A53694 | What of this nature can be spoken concerning the seventh Day now by some contended for, and that which is grievous, by some persons Holy and Learned? |
A53694 | Wherefore though some should say now as they did of old concerning any command of God, Behold what a weariness it is? |
A53694 | Who dare once so to imagine? |
A53694 | an ipsi erant servi& ancillae? |
A53694 | an jumenta requietis indigentia? |
A53694 | an peregrini inter portas ejus? |
A53694 | and what profit is it to keep his Ordinances? |
A53694 | and wherein is the preheminence of the Spiritual Worship of the Gospel, above the Carnal Ordinances of the Law? |
A53694 | quis non videt ad solum Israelitarum statum in toto illo praecepto respici? |
A90263 | 2 Doth Christ Dwell in us by his Spirit, should we not be carefull, least we grieve that Spirit of his? |
A90263 | And how doth he do it? |
A90263 | And is it Spirit or flesh that unites us to him? |
A90263 | And shal we deal thus with the Lord Jesus? |
A90263 | And shall we think that the Lord Christ will suffer his to be spoiled at an easie rate? |
A90263 | And what is this Price? |
A90263 | And why so? |
A90263 | But suppose great Opposition be made unto him, will he not give over? |
A90263 | Can he alone, and that by his Almighty Power put li ● e into dead stones, that they may grow up to bee a holy and living Habitation unto him? |
A90263 | Can hee alone ● it us for this Building? |
A90263 | Doth he dwell in us by his Grace? |
A90263 | Even there where men cry, Go to, let us build a City and a Tower whose top may reach to Heaven? |
A90263 | Examine your selves, is it not so with some of you? |
A90263 | For it Christ by his Spirit do not speak Peace, who shall? |
A90263 | How hath he in our dayes frustrated all attempts for the persecution of his? |
A90263 | Is Christ the Builder of this House? |
A90263 | Is it the will of man, or the will of God that drawes men unto Christ? |
A90263 | Is this the House of Christ? |
A90263 | Jacob sayes of him in Judah, He is a Lyon, as an old Lyon, who shall rouse him up? |
A90263 | Know you not( saith the Apostle) that you are the Temple of the Spirit of Christ? |
A90263 | Many poor Creatures have by their Opposition to his House ▪ roused up this Lyon, and what hath been the Issue? |
A90263 | Now who hath these seven spirits? |
A90263 | See hence a great mistake of many poor Creatures, who would fain be stones in this House: what course take they? |
A90263 | Shall He not avenge his Elect? |
A90263 | Shall a Spirit of life be spun out of the Bowels of Nature? |
A90263 | Shall a dead wil ● be thought to have a quickning, life- giving power in it? |
A90263 | Shall the Residue of men, who under new pretences, or old ones new painted, drive on the same designe, shall they prosper? |
A90263 | Suppose- any do rouse him up, how then? |
A90263 | Well, and how come we so to be? |
A90263 | What now is the issue of such Attempts? |
A90263 | Where then is this workman employed that makes all this noyse in the world? |
A90263 | Who then shall meddle with it and go free? |
A90263 | Would now this poor soul see where its great defect lyes? |
A90263 | have you not lost the sense of the presence of Christ by your folly and uneven walking? |
A90263 | if( saith he) any man haere my voice, and open to me, I will come to him: and what then? |
A90263 | is he the Owner of it? |
A90263 | shall not men pay dear for their encroachment? |
A90263 | shall not such men ly down in sorrow? |
A90263 | what is like to be? |
A90263 | what is required of him? |
A90263 | what then becomes of that famous workman Freewill, and a power of believing in our selves, do not they work effectually in this Temple? |
A90263 | will he bear such a reproach? |
A53685 | And by whom is this discovery made unto us? |
A53685 | And is not the Aid of the Spirit of God sufficient to enable us hereunto? |
A53685 | And is not the performance of Duties to be regulated according to the supplies of Grace? |
A53685 | And the only question is, What such Persons are to do, in complyance with his Assistance, or what it is that they obtain thereby? |
A53685 | And without an Acquaintance with these things, what are our Prayers, or what do they signifie? |
A53685 | Besides all other Disadvantages which will accrew hereby unto our Souls, who can express the horrible Ingratitude of such a Sin? |
A53685 | But we need not insist on the Commendation of Prayer, for it will be said by whom was it ever discommended? |
A53685 | Can we go from day to day in the neglect of Opportunities, occasions and just seasons of Prayer? |
A53685 | Can we more by any means grieve this Holy Spirit and endamage our own Souls? |
A53685 | Deal thus with thy Governour, Will he be pleased with thee or accept thy Person? |
A53685 | Do others go from day to day in a neglect of this Duty, in their Closets and Families? |
A53685 | For do they not acknowledge that there is a more plentiful effusion of the Spirit on the Church under the New Testament than of the Old? |
A53685 | For how can any man pray, that knows not what to pray for? |
A53685 | For what do we pray for? |
A53685 | For who knoweth what is good for man in this Life, all the days of his vain life, which he spendeth as a shadow? |
A53685 | For who shall assure me that the Persons pretending unto these Duties or Enjoyments are not meer pretenders? |
A53685 | Hath God given unto us the Spirit of Grace and Supplication, and shall we be remiss, careless, and negligent in Prayer? |
A53685 | How shall we answer the Contempt of this gracious Aid offered us by Jesus Christ? |
A53685 | If they are dull, dead and slothful in them, if under the Power of customariness and formality, what issue can they expect? |
A53685 | If they are so, or may be so, what need is there of him or his Work for the Preservation and Edification of the Church? |
A53685 | If you offer the blind for Sacrifice, is it not Evil? |
A53685 | Is not this the worst way whereby we may quench the Spirit, which we are so cautioned against? |
A53685 | Is this a fruit of our own Fancy and Imagination? |
A53685 | Quanta ergo cum reverentia, quanto timore, quantâ illuc humilitate accedere debet, è palude sua procedens ranuncula vilis? |
A53685 | Some have made bold to advance a fond Imagination( as what will not Enmity unto the Holy ways of God put men upon?) |
A53685 | What do we take a prospect and design of in our Supplications? |
A53685 | What is it we desire to be made Partakers of? |
A53685 | Who can express how great a folly and Sin it is, not to be found in the constant exercise of it? |
A53685 | Why should not men use in the Service and Worship of God what God hath given them, that they may be able to serve and worship him? |
A53685 | Will he, saith Job, plead with me with his great Power? |
A53685 | Ye brought that which was torn, and that which was Lame and Sick; should I accept this at your hands, saith the Lord? |
A53685 | and if you offer the Lame and the Sick, is it not Evil? |
A53685 | and shall we be found in the neglect of that Spiritual Aid which is graciously afforded unto us? |
A53731 | 12. Who can understand his Errors? |
A53731 | And how can it be charged as an Aggravation of their sin, that they do not use the Right which they have, seeing they have no Power so to do? |
A53731 | And this is the first Case which renders the Question dubious, Whether Sin have the Dominion in us or no? |
A53731 | And what shall long, in such a Case, stop Sins out of the Throne? |
A53731 | BUT you will say then, Unto what end serves this Right, if they have not Power in themselves to put it in Execution? |
A53731 | Believe not its flatteries, is it not a little one? |
A53731 | But how doth this give relief? |
A53731 | But if you shall say unto it, what then shall we do? |
A53731 | But what Ground have we for this Hope? |
A53731 | But what is the way whereby we may be enabled so to do? |
A53731 | Can any spiritual Eye behold Christ dying for Sin, and continue to live in Sin? |
A53731 | Can we behold him bleeding for our Sins, and not endeavour to give them their deaths Wound? |
A53731 | Doth it take advantage from our darkness and confusion under Troubles, Distresses or Temptations? |
A53731 | Hath it almost habituated the Soul unto careless and corrupt Inclinations unto the love, of or conformity to the World? |
A53731 | How much work do we see about Religion and religious Duties? |
A53731 | IS it not because they have other reliefs to betake themselves unto? |
A53731 | IS it that sin, though it abides, yet it shall not fight nor contend for Dominion in us? |
A53731 | IS it that there shall be no Sin in them any more? |
A53731 | Is there no difference between Sin''s Dominion, and Sin''s Tyranny and Vsurpation? |
A53731 | It is so, whether this be the fault of Churches or of perticular Persons? |
A53731 | NOW among disquisitions of this latter Nature and Use, this is none of the least, Whether we are under the Dominion of Sin or no? |
A53731 | O Lord, why hast thou hardened our Heart from thy Fear? |
A53731 | Shall I despise his purchace? |
A53731 | Shall we keep that alive in us, which he dy''d for, that it might not eternally destroy us? |
A53731 | THUS far have we proceeded in the enquiry, Whether Sin hath the Dominion in us or no? |
A53731 | The Second Enquiry spoken to; Whether Sin hath Dominion in us or no? |
A53731 | The Second Enquiry spoken to; Whether Sin hath Dominion in us or no? |
A53731 | They have Right to say unto it, Get thee hence, what have I to do any more with Idols? |
A53731 | We may therefore in this Case continually expostulate with our Souls, as David doth; Why go you mourning because of the Oppression of the Enemy? |
A53731 | What Assurance of this Success? |
A53731 | What constant observation of the Times and Seasons of them? |
A53731 | What is the assurance given us, and what are the Grounds thereof, that Sin shall not have Dominion over us? |
A53731 | What is the assurance given us, and what are the Grounds thereof, that Sin shall not have Dominion over us? |
A53731 | What power will it communicate unto its destruction? |
A53731 | Why are you cast down, and why are you disquieted within us? |
A53731 | Will he always call upon God? |
A53731 | Will you blame a Man that hath a Right to an Estate if he do not recover it, when he hath no means so to do? |
A53731 | YOU will say then, Whereto serves the Gospel, and the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ in this Case, if it be not able to give us deliverance herein? |
A53731 | this Tyrant, this Enemy, is too hard for us ▪ what aid and assistance against it will it afford unto us? |
A90268 | And then another party hath gone off, and asked us what will ye doe now? |
A90268 | Bring hither the Ephod, and enquire of God, was the word with them? |
A90268 | But you will say; how shall we enquire of God? |
A90268 | Doth he not fill heaven and earth? |
A90268 | First, That we may abide with God, this is indispensably required? |
A90268 | For the words themselves, the first thing proposed to be inquired into for their explanation is this; what it is for God to be with a people? |
A90268 | Had not the Lord been with us, who had not destroyed us? |
A90268 | Hath not the state of all nations, since they came into the power of men professing the knowledge of him, been the same? |
A90268 | Have you any Affair that lies before you that is good, and honest, but yet dreadful, difficult, entangled? |
A90268 | He shall die; he shall be cut off: what is the reason of this diversity? |
A90268 | How does he make it his glory to turne all their Consultations into folly? |
A90268 | How many wicked nations are there in the world, that for a long season, have received blessings( as it were) and successe in their undertakings? |
A90268 | How often did the Israelites attempt things without his direction? |
A90268 | If God be with us, who shall be against us? |
A90268 | In the last Assembly of Parliament, How many had no less real intentions to be at worke for God, than now? |
A90268 | Is he a God at hand only, and not afar off, as to the ends of the Earth? |
A90268 | Is the Lord amongst them by his special presence? |
A90268 | Is this all indeed that is required, that we may have the special presence of God with us for ever? |
A90268 | It is Christ that is our Peace, even in outward troubles? |
A90268 | Look on this presence of God as your main concernment? |
A90268 | O how inexcusable shall we be, if we neglect these termes? |
A90268 | Our High Priest is the Angel of Gods Presence, the mighty Counsellor, the power, and eternall wisedome of God himself? |
A90268 | Secondly, What is a Peoples abiding with God? |
A90268 | Should these things busie, or distract you; doth the Issue of the business in hand, depend on the thoughts of these men? |
A90268 | Some say you will never be able to goe through with the charge of your undertakings? |
A90268 | This is that which the Prophet calls for in the words of the Text; so the Psalmist, there are many that say, who will shew us any good? |
A90268 | What a full Experience have we had of this kind of proceeding among us? |
A90268 | What is the Rule and measure of Gods continuance with his people in the Covenant of Grace? |
A90268 | What then shall be done with this people? |
A90268 | What would we have more? |
A90268 | What would you have more? |
A90268 | When did he not deale thus with them? |
A90268 | When the righteous turns from his righteousness; what then? |
A90268 | With what contempt doth God speake of the wisedome, and Counsells of the sonnes of men, when they will adhere unto them? |
A90268 | Would God now have them pass on, and engage? |
A90268 | Would you then be with God? |
A90268 | and to make them erre in their wayes, like a drunken man? |
A90268 | and where is he? |
A90268 | did he despond? |
A90268 | did he give over? |
A90268 | have these things indeed any influence at all into the determination of this Controversie? |
A90268 | how doth he bid them take Counsell together, when he intends to destroy them? |
A90268 | how just will be our ruine? |
A90268 | how often did he breake in upon them to their woe and sorrow? |
A90268 | look on the Roman Empire, did it not flourish under the hand of men who rul''d with God, and were faithfull with the Saints? |
A90268 | what Promises of a successe, and a blessed Issue in so doing are there? |
A90268 | what instance can be given of transgressing this Rule? |
A90268 | what instances may be given of all good and prosperous Rulers of old, of their seeking direction from God? |
A90268 | what is all this to the advantage we have of seeking Counsell of God; and taking direction from him? |
A90268 | will not this one Consideration guide your hearts, and spirits, when all these waves roll all together upon you? |
A90268 | will the end be according to their contrivances? |
A90269 | 34. or according to the minde of God? |
A90269 | Ah foolish people and unwise, doe we thus require the Lord? |
A90269 | And is it likely that we can gather any Resolution from them? |
A90269 | Aske now the people of God in this nation, I say or any of them, one, or more, at any time? |
A90269 | Doth God at any time prosper an evill or a wicked Nation? |
A90269 | Doth he breake, ruine and destroy them, as sooner or latter he will leave them, neither roote nor branch? |
A90269 | Even all nations shall say, wherefore hath the Lord done thus unto this Land? |
A90269 | Have you an Answer in readinesse? |
A90269 | Is it not cleare, that they are divided among themselves? |
A90269 | Make this worke of God your pole- star, that you may steere and guide your course by it? |
A90269 | May not some enquiry of the like nature be made of the people of God amongst us? |
A90269 | On whom are the eies of this Nation and of those round about? |
A90269 | Shall we therfore chuse us a Captain,& goe down again into Egypt? |
A90269 | Suppose now a man, or men, should come and aske of you, what God hath done in these Nations? |
A90269 | That being attempted in many places,& proveing abortive, is here accomplished? |
A90269 | That is a season wherein great inquiry will be made about those things; what shall one then answer? |
A90269 | The septuagint render these words,{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}; the Kings of the Nations, what shall they say? |
A90269 | What SHALL one: what shall, or what ought? |
A90269 | What answer then should we give to Enquirers? |
A90269 | What is the profession we make? |
A90269 | What is the work that is so fam''d abroad, and spoken of throughout the World? |
A90269 | What is this you wil say? |
A90269 | What shall ONE? |
A90269 | What shall one THEN? |
A90269 | What shall one answer them? |
A90269 | What shall one then answer the Messengers of the Nation? |
A90269 | What shall they doe? |
A90269 | Wherefore doe they enquire of your wellfaire, of your state and condition, of your affaires? |
A90269 | Who( J say) not intangled with one prejudicate ingagement or other, may not se this with halfe an eye? |
A90269 | an Anti- christian Nation? |
A90269 | doth God take care for Oxen? |
A90269 | doth not the greatest danger of our own miscarriage lye in this? |
A90269 | from whom are the Expectations of men? |
A90269 | hath he delight in the prosperity of his Enemies? |
A90269 | have we been imposed on in the ways of God, by men ignorant of them? |
A90269 | how many glorious Appearances have I seen, of which I said under the shadow hereof, shall we live among the heathen? |
A90269 | in this case,{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}; what shall they answer, or say? |
A90269 | is it a power over other mens persons, or our owne lusts? |
A90269 | is it for their owne sakes? |
A90269 | is it not his Glory? |
A90269 | is it that they love you, that they desire your prosperity, that they would have you an established Nation? |
A90269 | should the disposall of things be according to his will, or ours? |
A90269 | to whom should we goe to enquire what God hath done in this Nation, what he is doing, what are the effects of his power, if not of you? |
A90269 | what he hath wrought, and effected? |
A90269 | what is brought forth? |
A90269 | what is it their duty to doe or to say? |
A90269 | who hath the chiefest interest in,& right unto the things contended about? |
A90269 | who hath the most wisedome to order things aright, he or we? |
A90269 | who sees what will be the event of all things, hee or we? |
A90269 | whose End is to be obtain''d in the issue of all? |
A53732 | 14. and every where else render, 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, an Infidel? |
A53732 | And how long hath this great Work ceased? |
A53732 | And if it be meant of all the Churches actually in being, how are they visible to me? |
A53732 | And it is enquired, how it is possible that any Rule, Authority, Power or Office, should arise or be erected in such a Society? |
A53732 | And the Enquiry is, How those Believers in one place and the other became to be a Church, and that distinct from all others? |
A53732 | And will the Lord''s Ministers and People yet say, The Time is not come, the Time that the Lord''s House should be Built? |
A53732 | Are they not those who labour in the Word and Doctrine? |
A53732 | For unto what end do they join themselves unto Parochial Churches and Assemblies? |
A53732 | For what Father would endure that any Power should be exercised in his Family as to the disposal of his Children and Estate, but his own? |
A53732 | For whence should they have such a Power, or who should commit it unto them? |
A53732 | HOW many Deacons may there be in one Congregation? |
A53732 | HOW ought persons Excommunicated to be received into the Church upon their Repentance? |
A53732 | I ask who they are, and of what sort? |
A53732 | IT may be farther Enquired, Whether a Man may be Excommunicated for Errors in matters of Faith, or false Opinions about them? |
A53732 | If so, then these Gifts are either ordinary or extraordinary; if ordinary, how come they to be reckoned among Miracles, Healing, and Tongues? |
A53732 | Is it not to do it in that Society, in those Assemblies whereunto they do belong? |
A53732 | Is it not to profess that they will do and observe all whatsoever he commands them? |
A53732 | Is it not, that they might yield obedience unto Christ in their so doing? |
A53732 | Is it time to Build our own Houses, and not the House of the Lord? |
A53732 | Is there not therein virtually a mutual Agreement and Engagement among them unto all those ends? |
A53732 | Isaac Chauncey?]. |
A53732 | MAY Deacons Preach the Word and Baptize authoritatively by virtue of their Office? |
A53732 | MAY a Deacon be dismissed from his Office wholly, after he hath been solemnly set apart unto it by Prayer? |
A53732 | MAY a Pastor remove from one Congregation unto another? |
A53732 | MAY a Pastor voluntarily, or of his own accord, resign and lay down his Office, and remain in a private Capacity? |
A53732 | Now to whom should the Keys of the House be committed but unto the Bride? |
A53732 | OUR last Enquiry shall be, Whether Excommunication may be regular and valid, where the matter of Right is dubious and disputable? |
A53732 | So the Apostle expresseth it in himself: Who is weak, and I am not weak? |
A53732 | So they grant the general Assertion of the necessity of Rule, for who can deny it? |
A53732 | THE Authority of a Synod determining Articles of Faith? |
A53732 | THE Sixth Enquiry is, What Time is to be given after solemn Admonition before actual Excommunication? |
A53732 | To what end do they require all Professors of the Protestant Religion so to do, declaring it to be their Duty by penalties annexed unto its neglect? |
A53732 | WHAT is the Duty of the Deacons towards the Elders of the Church? |
A53732 | WHETHER persons Excommunicated out of any Church may be admitted unto the hearing of the Word in the Assemblies of that Church? |
A53732 | What Earthly Prince will bear with such an intrusion into his Rights and Dominion? |
A53732 | What are the Acts and Duties of it? |
A53732 | What is the Skill and Polity that is required unto the Exercise, or Administration of the Government of the Church? |
A53732 | What is the sole Law and Rule of it? |
A53732 | Where is any such Church capable of Communion in all Ordinances in one place? |
A53732 | Who is offended, and I burn not? |
A53732 | Who then are these Elders, these Pastors and Teachers, these Ministers of the Church? |
A53732 | Whose Wit is so barren, as not to be able to raise one exception or other against the plainest and most evident Testimony? |
A53732 | Why so? |
A53732 | With such an one no not to Eat; as that also, Note that Man and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed? |
A53732 | but to all visible Churches Christ hath appointed a visible Pastor or Pastors; and where is the Pastor of the Catholick visible Church? |
A53732 | it is scarce once thought of amongst the most of them, who in various degrees take upon them the Pastoral Office; where are the fruits of it? |
A53732 | what evidence is given of it in any kind? |
A53732 | what 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, Communion or Fellowship hath Light with Darkness? |
A53732 | where can they be seen in one place? |
A53732 | 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, what consistency hath the Temple of God( i. e. the Gospel Church) with Idols? |
A53669 | 14. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire, who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings? |
A53669 | And he said, who told thee that thou wast naked? |
A53669 | And is it not strange, that true and real Sacrifices, should be Types and R presentations of that which was not so? |
A53669 | And shall any dare to deny but it may be so, in things Heavenly, Divine, and Spiritual? |
A53669 | And shall we think otherwise of the Law of God? |
A53669 | And why a new sense should be forged for these words, when they are spoken concerning Christ, who can give a just reason? |
A53669 | But do not these men see that they have hereby given away their Cause which they contend for? |
A53669 | But first, I ask what Reason is it that they intend? |
A53669 | But who was this Word? |
A53669 | But why so I pray? |
A53669 | But, Secondly, Where, or with whom, was this Word in the beginning? |
A53669 | Can any thing be more absonant from Faith and Reason, than this absurd expression? |
A53669 | D ● they say, that by his death he hare testimony unto, and confirmed the truth which he had taught? |
A53669 | Do they say that in what he did, and su ● fered, he set us an Example that we should labour after conformity unto? |
A53669 | Do they say, that he taught the Truth or revealed the whole mind and will of God concerning his Worship and our obedience? |
A53669 | Doth he subsist only in the form or nature of God? |
A53669 | For in their Catechism unto this Question, Is the Lord Jesus Christ, purus Homo, a meer man? |
A53669 | For what is according to this Interpretation the meaning of those words, in the beginning was the Word? |
A53669 | Fourthly, In this gloss what is the meaning of all things? |
A53669 | Hast thou O Son, fallen under the Enemies hand in my stead; am I saved by thy wounds; do I live by thy death? |
A53669 | Hast thou eaten of the Tree whreof I commandeded thee that then shouldst not eat? |
A53669 | He that eateth it, 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 shall bear his iniquities, How? |
A53669 | How can three be one, and one be three? |
A53669 | How then will these pretended Masters of Reason reconcile these things? |
A53669 | How then? |
A53669 | How? |
A53669 | If a City be on fire, whose bucket that brings water to quench it ought to be refused? |
A53669 | If a man should have enquired of some of them of old, whether Melchizedeck were purus Homo, a meer man? |
A53669 | Is God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? |
A53669 | Morte tuâ vivam? |
A53669 | O the infamous portraicture this Doctrine draws of the Infinite Goodness; is this your retribution, O injurious Satisfactionists? |
A53669 | Or how could the truth of any thing more evidently be represented unto their minds? |
A53669 | Peter said to Ananias, why hath Satan filled thy heart to lye to the Holy Ghost? |
A53669 | Tantane me tenuit vivendi nate voluptas, Vt pro me hostili paterer succedere dextrae Quem genui? |
A53669 | The summ of what they say in general, is, How can these things be? |
A53669 | Then said the Jews unto him, thou art not fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? |
A53669 | VVhat is the meaning of were made? |
A53669 | Well, what is that subject matter? |
A53669 | What Reason do they intend? |
A53669 | What is it I pray? |
A53669 | What is their singular herein, concerning how many things may the same be affirmed? |
A53669 | What now can be required to secure our faith in this matter? |
A53669 | What then are they? |
A53669 | What then is this latent sense that is intended, and is discoverable only by themselves? |
A53669 | Whither shall I go from thy Spirit? |
A53669 | converted into flesh, into a Man, so that he who was God ceased so to be, and was turned or changed into flesh, that is a Man? |
A53669 | for then how shall God judge the world? |
A53669 | hath he a divine nature also? |
A53669 | that is, were mended? |

A53734 | But yet what did all the Spring and Well- Heads of Rational and Philosophical Consolation rise unto? |
A53734 | Do they not always pray for his ineffable Presence and Inhabitation? |
A53734 | Do they not find the presence of the Spirit himself by his various Gifts in them by whom Spiritual things are Administred unto them? |
A53734 | Doth he give them up unto their Frowardness? |
A53734 | Doth he leave and forsake them under their Distemper? |
A53734 | For what greater Pledge can we have of the Love and Favour of God? |
A53734 | For what other Affection of Mind can be the Principle hereof from whence it may proceed? |
A53734 | Have not I, saith our Saviour unto them, chosen you Twelve, and one of you is a Devil? |
A53734 | Have there been such Evils in any of us, as wherein it is evident that the Spirit is grieved? |
A53734 | Have they not a proof of Christ speaking in them by the Assistance of his Spirit, making the Word mighty unto all its proper Ends? |
A53734 | Have they not an Experiment of this Administration? |
A53734 | How did he set his Seal to them as his? |
A53734 | How great their Fears? |
A53734 | How many their Discouragements? |
A53734 | How shall it be demonstrated unto us that thou art authorized and enabled to give us the Spiritual Food of our Souls? |
A53734 | How shall that be prevented in his Absence, who was the Life and Spring of all their Comforts? |
A53734 | How therefore doth this Holy Comforter now deal with them? |
A53734 | Is any Man of himself sufficient for these things? |
A53734 | Is it meerly external Operations of the Spirit in Grace that they desire herein? |
A53734 | Now to what end is this glorious Theatre, as it were, prepared, and all this Preparation made, all Men being called to the Preparation of it? |
A53734 | Or what Rules or Directions are given as to their Qualifications, Power or Duty; or how they should be so ordained? |
A53734 | Reproving and convincing of them beyond all Contradiction, they were pricked in their Hearts, and cried out, Men and Brethren, what shall we do? |
A53734 | The sole Enquiry is, Whence we may have this Wisdom, seeing it is abundantly evident that we have it not of our selves? |
A53734 | This no Man can do of himself, for who is sufficient for these things? |
A53734 | VVhat probably are their principal Temptations, their Hinderances and Furtherances; what is their growth or decay in Religion? |
A53734 | WHEREFORE if we take a View of what is the State and Condition of the Church in it self, and in the World: How weak is the Faith of most Believers? |
A53734 | We have not first these Graces, and then by vertue of them receive the Spirit( for whence should we have them of our selves?) |
A53734 | What Church, what Persons have received Authority to Ordain any one to be such an Evangelist? |
A53734 | What Relief can be suited unto them, but what is an Emanation from Infinite Power? |
A53734 | What Sign( say they) dost thou then, that we may see and believe thee? |
A53734 | What Tongue can express it? |
A53734 | What dost thou work? |
A53734 | What greater Assurance of a future, blessed Condition, than that God hath given us of his Holy Spirit? |
A53734 | What greater Dignity can we be made Partakers of? |
A53734 | What is it that Believers intend in that Request? |
A53734 | What way then had God Ordained for the Preservation and Safety of the Church, that it should not be imposed upon by any of these Delusions? |
A53734 | Who see not how different are the Gifts of Men, the Holy Ghost dividing unto every one as he will? |
A53734 | Will any Thoughts of Grace or Mercy relieve or satisfie them, if once they apprehend that the Holy Spirit is not in them, or doth not dwell with them? |
A53734 | how might it appear that he was Authorized and enabled thereunto? |
A53734 | what Refreshment did their Streams afford? |
A53726 | And as he is not obliged( for who hath known the Mind of the Lord, or who hath been his Counsellor?) |
A53726 | And if it be asked, how I know this Scripture to be a Divine Revelation, to be the Word of God? |
A53726 | But how come we to know and believe these Signs? |
A53726 | But is it of this Authority and Efficacy in it self? |
A53726 | But what Ground or Reason have we to believe it? |
A53726 | But what is this Revelation, or where is it to be found? |
A53726 | But what need is there of any long disputation? |
A53726 | But whence I pray hath it this Authority? |
A53726 | But whence are we so perswaded but from it self alone? |
A53726 | But why should we believe this Word of Prophecy? |
A53726 | But why then do not all believe the Gospel? |
A53726 | Doth any Obligation unto believing hence arise? |
A53726 | For the Inquiries managed therein, namely, what is the Obligation upon us to believe the Scripture to be the Word of God? |
A53726 | Hence the Enquiry in this case is, what is the Reason why we believe any thing with this faith divine or supernatural? |
A53726 | How shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? |
A53726 | If any one upon these Principles shall now ask us, Wherefore we believe the Scripture to be the Word of God? |
A53726 | If it be asked how, wherein, or whereby God hath revealed and declared these things so to be, or what is that Revelation which God hath made hereof? |
A53726 | Is not my Word like as fire, saith the Lord? |
A53726 | Sed longa opus est disputatione? |
A53726 | Sed unde oro hanc authoritatem sibi vendicavit? |
A53726 | Si autem Latinè, scirem quid diceret, sed unde scirem an verum diceret? |
A53726 | The Enquiry is what he requireth it unto? |
A53726 | The Question is about the Gospel, or the Declaration of the powerful Coming of Jesus Christ, whether it were to be believed or no? |
A53726 | The material Object of our Faith therefore are the Articles of our Creed, by whose Enumeration we answer unto that question, what we believe? |
A53726 | The only Question is, how it hath discharged it self in this Design? |
A53726 | This gave them indeed sufficient Assurance; but whereinto shall they resolve their Faith who heard not this Testimony? |
A53726 | VVere not this the Word of God, how should it come thus to speak in his Name, and to act his Authority in the Consciences of Men as it doth? |
A53726 | What horrible Darkness, Ignorance and Blindness was upon the whole World with respect unto the Knowledge of God? |
A53726 | What is the Chaff to the Wheat, saith the Lord? |
A53726 | What it is in general, infallibly to believe the Scripture to be the Word of God, and what is the Ground and Reason of our so doing? |
A53726 | Whence could all this proceed but from the watchful Care and Power of divine Providence? |
A53726 | Wherefore we do so believe it? |
A53726 | Why do we so do, on what ground or reason? |
A53726 | Yea but how shall we know the one from the other? |
A53726 | and how shall they hear without a Preacher, and how shall they preach unless they are sent? |
A53726 | and if I should know this also, should I know it of him? |
A53726 | and if it were, upon what Grounds? |
A53726 | and like an Hammer that breaketh the Rock in pieces? |
A53726 | for the living to the dead? |
A53726 | for the living, to the dead? |
A53726 | may not that also be a cunningly devised Fable, and the whole Scripture be but the Suggestions of mens private Spirits, as is objected? |
A53726 | or what it is the believing whereof makes our Faith divine, infallible and supernatural? |
A53726 | quod etsi hoc scirem num& ab illo scirem? |
A53726 | sed unde sumus ita persuasi nisi ab ipsa? |
A53726 | what are the Causes, and what is the Nature of that Faith whereby we do so? |
A53726 | what is the way and means thereof? |
A53726 | what it is that our Faith rests upon herein? |
A53726 | what it rests on, and is resolved into, so as to become a Divine and Acceptable Duty? |
A90278 | 1 Whether Christ in making satisfaction, underwent that Penalty that was threatned to the Offendors themselves? |
A90278 | 2 Grant All that here is said, how doth it prove that Christ underwent not the very Penalty of the Law? |
A90278 | 2 How comes the Sinner by Faith, if it is the Gift of God? |
A90278 | 2 Whether the Penalty due to One, may not be undergon by Another? |
A90278 | 2 Whether the Penalty though undergone by another, be not the idem of the Obligation? |
A90278 | 20. because he now will, and may, suitablely to his Justice ▪ Wisdome, and Appointment, make out unto them? |
A90278 | 3 How doth this Elude the force of my Answer? |
A90278 | 4 Doth not Mr B. suppose, That in the very Tenure of the Obligation there is required a solution, tending to the same End as satisfaction doth? |
A90278 | 4 That the Law threatned not Christ but us, is most true: but the Question is, Whether Christ underwent not the threatning of the Law, not we? |
A90278 | 4 To the thing it self, I desire to enquire; 1 What M. B. intends by solutio ejusdem in the businesse in hand? |
A90278 | And may not this hold in things Personal also? |
A90278 | And what said I more? |
A90278 | And what saith Grotius more then this? |
A90278 | But how is all this proved? |
A90278 | But is it from hence, because by his Death, he Purchaseth for them, the compleating of that Condition in them? |
A90278 | But is there any such thing as Deliverance once aimed at, or intended in the tenor of the Obligation? |
A90278 | But is this his mind indeed? |
A90278 | But then, Why doth the Lord bestow Faith on Peter at the 40th yeer of his Age, and not before, or after? |
A90278 | But, Do I not then fight with a shadow? |
A90278 | Can Justice refuse to accept of such a payment? |
A90278 | Can it be any other but the Glory of Gods Justice in the everlasting destruction of the Creature? |
A90278 | Do I labour to prove that which I never Affirmed? |
A90278 | Doth he assert tantundem to be in this matter equivalent unto idem{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}? |
A90278 | Doth he not maintain it to be the Offendors own undergoing the Penalty of the Law? |
A90278 | Else, Why is Faith given him at this instant for Christs sake, and not to another, for whom also he died? |
A90278 | For, What is that Love of God which through Christ is effectual to bestow Faith upon the Unbeleeving? |
A90278 | For: 1; Why doth the Lord bestow Faith on Peter, not on Judas? |
A90278 | He purposed from Eternity, to inflict punishment on Sinners: and on what sinners? |
A90278 | He that spared not his Son, but delivered him up to Death for us all, how shall he not with him freely give us all things? |
A90278 | How then can it possibly be supposed to attain the End spoken of ipso facto? |
A90278 | I ask then, Whence that Assurance doth accrew? |
A90278 | IT is one of the greatest and noblest Questions in our Controverted Divinity, What are the immediate Effects of Christs Death? |
A90278 | If the Second: 1 I desire to know, What is this Intention here assigned to our Saviour? |
A90278 | In respect of punishment abstracting from Persons, the Law was not dispensed withal as to Christ? |
A90278 | In things Real, I gave an Instance before: If a man pay twenty pounds for another who owed it, doth not he pay the idem in the Obligation? |
A90278 | Is it because he was not Primarily in the Obligation? |
A90278 | Is it because the Law doth threaten every man Personally? |
A90278 | Is it from his foresight of their good using their Abilities to fulfil the Condition to them prescribed? |
A90278 | Is it not his main endeavour to prove it so? |
A90278 | Is there any one Argument in my whole Book used to any such purpose? |
A90278 | It is true, he could have made us quickly know it: but who hath been his Counsellour? |
A90278 | Now what excepts M. B. hereunto? |
A90278 | Now what sayes this Argument to the Contrary? |
A90278 | Or will he deny it to be equivalent in Gods Gracious Acceptance? |
A90278 | That dreadful cry, Why hast thou forsaken me? |
A90278 | That is, Whether Christ paid the idem in the Obligation, or tantundum? |
A90278 | That is, Whether God be only a Rector, or a Rector and Creditor also in this Businesse? |
A90278 | They were Potentially in the Purpose of God: but will that make them a meet subject for the Residence of this Right, and Merit whereof we speak? |
A90278 | To what End, you will say, doth Mr Owen adde these Arguments? |
A90278 | What End I pray doth this obtain ipso facto? |
A90278 | What differs this in the Close from absolute freedom? |
A90278 | What now sayes M. B. to this? |
A90278 | What then doth the Lord do, when he thus bestoweth Faith on him? |
A90278 | What then is my Crime? |
A90278 | Whence is this difference? |
A90278 | Where I pray? |
A90278 | Where then is the difference? |
A90278 | Wherein? |
A90278 | Whether Christ paid the idem, or the tantundum? |
A90278 | Why? |
A90278 | Will his words bear any other sense? |
A90278 | Will you deny it? |
A90278 | and if so, Whether it be not the same Penalty( the idem) or no? |
A90278 | never beleeved? |
A90278 | never thought? |
A90278 | or can it require any more? |
A53716 | And how is this done? |
A53716 | And is not the genuine tendance of these things, open the visible unto all? |
A53716 | And is there not a cry for all this, How long, Lord, holy and true, doest thou not avenge our blood on them that live on the earth? |
A53716 | And what doth he discover and reveal? |
A53716 | And what is the ayme of the Lord Jesus herein, whose mighty voice shakes them? |
A53716 | And what is this, that the Lord will have his people to inquire of him about? |
A53716 | And will not the Lord avenge his Elect that cry unto him day and night, will he not do it speedily? |
A53716 | Are not the shakings of these Heavens of the Nations from him? |
A53716 | Are they not called to an account for the transgression of that charge given to all Potentates, Touch not mine Anointed? |
A53716 | Are they not rather gathered up into one spirituall body and communion? |
A53716 | Are you not the residue of all the Chariots of England? |
A53716 | But how should this be? |
A53716 | Canst thou hinder the rain from descending upon the earth when it is falling? |
A53716 | Canst thou stop the Sun from rising at it''s appointed houre? |
A53716 | Doth not Sion cry, The violence done to me and my flesh, be upon Babylon, and my blood upon those Heavens of the Nations? |
A53716 | Doth not the Papall Interest lye at the bottome of all or the most ruling lines of Christendome? |
A53716 | Hath not Germany, and the annexed Territories, her Husse, and Hussile, Hierome and Subutraguians to answer for? |
A53716 | Hath not God unvailed that Harlot, made her naked, and discovered her abominable filthinesse? |
A53716 | Have not all these, and all the Kingdoms round about washed their hands and garments in the blood of thousands of Protestants? |
A53716 | How are such things done in the world? |
A53716 | How are these shaken things removed, which with their shaking they must certainly be, as in my Text? |
A53716 | How have they earned the Titles, Eldest Son of the Church, The Catholick, and most Christian King, Defender of the Faith, and the like? |
A53716 | How the whole Earth hath been rolled in confusion, and the Saints hurried out of the world, to give way to their combined interest? |
A53716 | Is it not from hence, that he may revenge their opposition to the kingdom of his dear Son? |
A53716 | Is it not to frame and form them for the interest of his own kingdom? |
A53716 | Is not the hand of the Lord in all this? |
A53716 | Is not the voice of Christ, in the midst of all this tumult? |
A53716 | Neither shall I insist upon the 3d Inquiry, viz: when this shaking shall be? |
A53716 | Now can a servant do his masters work, if he know not his will? |
A53716 | Now how are Angels and men removed by Christ? |
A53716 | Now what are the Pillars of that fatall Building? |
A53716 | Now what is a civill shaking of civill constitutions? |
A53716 | Now what is the light which God manifestly gives in, in our dayes? |
A53716 | Now what shall be the issue thereof? |
A53716 | Now what, I pray, are the works that the Lord is bringing forth upon the Earth? |
A53716 | Shall not the Decree bring forth? |
A53716 | Shew me the Potentate upon the Earth, that hath a peaceable Molehil, to build himself an habitation upon? |
A53716 | The Heavens of the Nations what are they? |
A53716 | The Rise of our first Vse I shall take from that of the Prophet: Who is wise, and he shall understand these things? |
A53716 | The second thing considerable is, what is the shaking of these things? |
A53716 | These things being past before, how can they be held out under a Promise? |
A53716 | What is the reason that some stand in the market place idle all the day? |
A53716 | What, I pray, hath been their main businesse for 700. years and upward, even almost ever since the Man of Sin was enthroned? |
A53716 | Whence comes it to passe, that so many Nations are wasted, destroyed, spoiled, in the dayes wherein we live? |
A53716 | Will he not call the fowls of Heaven to eat the flesh of Kings, and Captains, and great men of the Earth? |
A53716 | Will he not make these Heavens like the wood of the vine, not a pin to be taken off them to hang a garment on, in his whole tabernacle? |
A53716 | Wouldest thou labour for honour, if thou knewest that God at this time, were labouring to lay all the Honour of the Earth in the dust? |
A53716 | and can any expect that such as these, should take up the despised quarrell of the Saints, against that flourishing Queen? |
A53716 | are they not the powers of the world as presently stated and framed? |
A53716 | can that be ejected without unbottoming their own dominion? |
A53716 | did not their bodies lye in the streets of France, under the names of Waldenses, Albigenses, and poore men of Lyons? |
A53716 | do they not use the efficacy of the Romane jurisdiction to ballance the powers of their Adversaries abroad, and to awe their Subjects at home? |
A53716 | hath he not a consider able strength in every one of their own Bosomes? |
A53716 | hath it not been by the blood of Saints? |
A53716 | is it not in vain to fight against the Lord? |
A53716 | is not Spaine''s Inquisition enough to ruine a world, much more a Kingdom? |
A53716 | is there any wisdome or counsell against the most high? |
A53716 | is there not in every one of these kingdoms, the slain, and the banished ones of Christ to answer for? |
A53716 | of these materiall visible Heavens and Earth? |
A53716 | prudent, and he shall know them? |
A53716 | pull them away, and, alas, what is Antichrist? |
A53716 | rejoyce in the midst of so many evils and troubles, in the most whereof they were to have a Benjamins messe, a double portion? |
A53716 | some work for a season, and then give over, they know not how to go a step farther, but after a day, a week, a month, or yeer, are at a stand? |
A53716 | that God hath taken quietnesse and peace from the Earth? |
A53716 | that he may shake out of the midst of them, all that Antichristian mortar, wherewith from their first chaos they have been cemented? |
A53716 | that so the kingdoms of the Earth, may become the kingdoms of the Lord Jesus: Is not the controversie of Sion pleaded with them? |
A53716 | the most neglect the duty which of them is required: what is the reason of all this? |
A53716 | what are these Earthquakes? |
A53716 | what is he doing in our own and the Neighbour Nations? |
A53716 | will the conception for thee dwell quietly in the wombe beyond it''s month? |
A53716 | worse then all this, some counterwork the Lord with all their strength? |
A53702 | According to this Rule the Prophet persisted in his Ministry The Sum of his Sermon? |
A53702 | All that can be said, is, Who knows but that the Lord may repent and turn from the fierceness of his Wrath? |
A53702 | And Jesus answering, said unto them ▪ Suppose ye that these Galileans were Sinners above all the Galileans, because they suffered such things? |
A53702 | And as for them who scosf at these things, and say, Where is the Promise of his Coming? |
A53702 | And if this Spring be stopped, whence should the refreshing VVaters of Repentance and Reformation arise? |
A53702 | Are there no Failings, no Decays in these things? |
A53702 | Are there no Indispositions, Deadness and Coldness in Duties, grown upon you? |
A53702 | Are there not sins amongst us against the Lord our God, proper unto our State, and according to our Measure? |
A53702 | But are men changed, renewed, converted to God by the Doctrine of this Religion? |
A53702 | But what if they do all those Abominations? |
A53702 | Can any thing be more just and equal? |
A53702 | Can the Aethiopian change his Skin, or the Leopard his spots? |
A53702 | For what will some say, doth this speaking unto a few in a Retirement signifie as unto a General Reformation of the People of the Land? |
A53702 | Have not Prosessors sinned? |
A53702 | Have we not turned a deaf ear to all the Calls of God? |
A53702 | Hearken not unto vain words; this or that way we shall be delivered; it is the Day of our Trial, and who knows what will be the Evening thereof? |
A53702 | Here is much talk indeed of the Judgments of God, and of their near Approach; When shall we see them? |
A53702 | How is it as unto constant Meditation on spiritual things, and the fixing your Affections on things that are above? |
A53702 | How is it as unto the inward frame of the heart? |
A53702 | How will England answer for abused Mercies in the Day of Visitation? |
A53702 | I desire to ask of any, Hath not the Church sinned? |
A53702 | If we are sincere herein, if we are servent in these Supplications, is it nothing unto us, when all these things are quite contrary amongst us? |
A53702 | Most men now despise these, things, but can their hearts endure, or can their hands be strong in the Day that the Lord shall deal with them? |
A53702 | Or those Eighteen, upon whom the Tower in Siloam fell, and slew them; think ye that they were Sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem? |
A53702 | Our next Enquiry is, Whence, or from what Causes such a Reformation may be expected, as may be useful unto the turning away of impendent Judgments? |
A53702 | Our third Enquiry is, What Evidences we have at present, or what Warnings we have had of approaching Judgments? |
A53702 | Seest thou, saith God, to Elijah, how he humbleth himself? |
A53702 | The Lion, saith he, hath roared, who will not fear? |
A53702 | This we may therefore evidently try our selves by; what real Change hath there been in us, in compliance with the Calls of God? |
A53702 | Unto what end did God grant them a Day, such a day of Grace and Patience which they could not make use of? |
A53702 | VVe are all Protestants, and will abide to be of the Protestant Religion; but wherein? |
A53702 | VVhere is your readiness to forgive your Enemies? |
A53702 | Was thine Anger against thy Rivers? |
A53702 | Was thy wrath against the Sea? |
A53702 | What Reformation hath been engaged in on this account? |
A53702 | What can save a People by whom the only Remedies of their Relief are despised? |
A53702 | What if all these Means do fail? |
A53702 | What is required unto that Reformation, which may save any Nation, this wherein we live, from desolating Calamities, when they are deserved? |
A53702 | What is the vigour and power of Faith and Love in you? |
A53702 | When shall we see the Generality of all sorts of men in this Nation cordially to go about this Work of Repentance and Reformation? |
A53702 | Where is now your Mouth and your Vauntings, with respect unto these Judgments of God? |
A53702 | Where is your Fruitfulness in works of Charity and Mercy? |
A53702 | Wherefore doth a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his Sins? |
A53702 | Who can complain, if after all this, evil doth overtake you, and you shall not escape? |
A53702 | Who dares make this a plea with God for it, namely, that yet it is free and innocent from such and such provoking Sins? |
A53702 | Who hath complied with the Calls of God herein? |
A53702 | and equal? |
A53702 | are they made Humble, Holy, Zealous, fruitful in good Works by it? |
A53702 | have they experience of the power of it in their own Souls in its transforming of them into the Image of God? |
A53702 | how do they act themselves; what is your real delight in the ways of God? |
A53702 | that so many difficulties are esteemed to be in it; so as that there is little hope it will be found among us in a prevalent degree? |
A53702 | what Dissimulation in Love hath been cured or cast out? |
A53702 | what Passions or Affections have been reduced into Order, which have exceeded their due Bounds and Measures? |
A53702 | what have we relinquished in our ways, frames or actings? |
A53702 | what if all Expectations from them be in vain? |
A53702 | what irregular actings in our Persons, Families or Occasions of Life have been forsaken? |
A53702 | what vain Communication, formerly accustomed unto, hath been watched against and prevented? |
A53702 | what vain thoughts are utterly excluded, whereunto we have given entertainment? |
A53702 | when shall he bring forth his Work? |
A53702 | who can complain of his share and interest in the Calamities that are coming upon us? |
A53702 | who can plead that he ought to be exempted? |
A53702 | who hath mourned, who hath trembled, who hath sought for an Entrance into the Chambers of Providence in the Day of Indignation? |
A53702 | who shall pity us in the day of Distress? |
A53702 | why do not they come? |
A90291 | 2 What it is, to stagger at the Promise? |
A90291 | And can any good come from thence? |
A90291 | And is it possible that deliverance should arise from a Crucified man? |
A90291 | And shall we stop at the first Part? |
A90291 | Are not all the Streams of the same Nature with the Fountain? |
A90291 | But is this all? |
A90291 | But you will say, Though God be thus able, thus Alsufficient, yet may there not be Defects in the Means whereby he worketh? |
A90291 | Call him out to the Battel, and then keep away his Crown? |
A90291 | Can he heal my Back- slidings? |
A90291 | Can he pardon my Sins? |
A90291 | Can he save my Soul? |
A90291 | Christ comes to Peter and asks him, Simon, Son of Jonas, lovest thou me? |
A90291 | For want of Power in him? |
A90291 | For, saith the Lord, Can a woman forget her sucking Child, that she should not have compassion on the Son of her womb? |
A90291 | Hath he no further Aime? |
A90291 | Hath not this been held out as a Mountain? |
A90291 | He replyes, Lord God, what wilt thou give me, seeing I go childless? |
A90291 | How can this be,( sayes Zechariah) that I should have a Son? |
A90291 | How is it that Jesus Christ, is in Ireland only as a Lyon stayning all his garments with the bloud of his Enemies? |
A90291 | How long shall I suffer you? |
A90291 | How long shall I suffer you? |
A90291 | How shouldest thou be forgotten? |
A90291 | If that be bitter, can they be sweet? |
A90291 | If the Body be full of Poyson, will not the Branches have their Venome also? |
A90291 | Is it for want of Love? |
A90291 | Is it not the evil Root of Vnbelief? |
A90291 | Is it possible( saith he) this little Thing should safe- gaurd my Life in the Ocean? |
A90291 | Is it the Soveraignty and Interest of England that is alone to be there transacted? |
A90291 | Is not all this to make way for the Lord Jesus to take Possession of his long since Promised Inheritance? |
A90291 | Is not then a grant rare, when his People are silent as to Prayers? |
A90291 | Is this to be thankful, to forget our provoking Thoughts of Unbelief, when the Mercy is enjoyed? |
A90291 | Is this to deal fairly with the Lord Jesus? |
A90291 | It is said of one place, Christ could do no great Work there: Why so? |
A90291 | Let us now see whether any of these things, be wanting to the Promises of God: and begin we with the First: 1 Is there Truth in these Promises? |
A90291 | May he not be turned, and then what becomes of the Golden Mountains, that I Promised my self upon his Engagement? |
A90291 | Now how can the Promise stand in the way of this Hydra? |
A90291 | Now says God to Syon, Why sayest thou, I have forgotten thee? |
A90291 | O faithless and perverse Generation, how long shall I be with you? |
A90291 | O thou of little Faith( saith our Saviour) wherefore diddest thou doubt? |
A90291 | Or, 2 Will it be for the Credit and Honour of your Profession of the GOSPEL, That such a breach should be under your hand? |
A90291 | Peter is commanded to obey the Vision,{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman}{ non- Roman} nothing doubting: What is that? |
A90291 | Place the Doubt aright, and it is this, Is God able to accomplish what he hath spoken? |
A90291 | That it should be( as it were) by your means? |
A90291 | The Promise can do no great Work upon thy heart, to humble thee, to pardon to quiet thee; Is it for want of Fulness and Truth therein? |
A90291 | The Soul is apt to ask how can this be? |
A90291 | They trusted once, but now seeing him slain and crucified, they know not what to say to it: What then? |
A90291 | To make this the more plain, I must open these two things: 1 What is the Promise here intended? |
A90291 | We cry, Lord Jesus, Lovest thou us? |
A90291 | What a Silence hath been in the Heaven of many Churches, for this last half hour? |
A90291 | What building is that like to be, which hath a staggering Foundation? |
A90291 | What do they now stand at? |
A90291 | What does he then? |
A90291 | What is the Root that bears this Fruit of Staggering? |
A90291 | What now lyes at the Bottom of all this? |
A90291 | What sayes it to this combined Opposition? |
A90291 | What then shall we do? |
A90291 | Who can bear the just Scandal that would accrew? |
A90291 | Who would not put their Trust in thee? |
A90291 | Will it not be a Sword, and an Arrow, and a Maul in the hands of your Observers? |
A90291 | and agai ● ● Lord Jesus, Lovest thou us? |
A90291 | and none to hold him out as a Lamb sprinkled with his own bloud to his friends? |
A90291 | and what will all these things avail me? |
A90291 | do they quite give over all trusting in him? |
A90291 | shall he give over, never more enquire after this buried Christ, but sit down in darknesse and sorrow? |
A90291 | shall the faithlesness of men, make the Faith of God of none effect? |
A90291 | what a search into the Vessel? |
A90291 | what will it benefit me, to have a multitude of earthly enjoyments, and leave them in the close to my Servant? |
A90291 | wherefore do ye doubt? |
A49114 | And I never heard as yet that any have questioned the sufficiency of the injunction; about what then is the contest? |
A49114 | And now I beg leave to reason the case briefly with my dissenting brethren, Quae tanta fuit causa? |
A49114 | And what if we should say with the Poet, Inest sua gratia verbis? |
A49114 | And what pity is it when the General Assembly teach it so well to others, any particular members should make it a castaway in their own practice? |
A49114 | Are there not too many enemies, both in opinion and practice, to our Lords Prayer? |
A49114 | Bishop Usher in his body of Divinity, to the Question, What is the Lords prayer? |
A49114 | But what if the Latine Church and Fathers have used it for above a thousand years? |
A49114 | But what if the asserting of a commanded duty doe confirme some in causeless prejudices? |
A49114 | Do not some men forget the Publicans confession, and onely satisfie themselves with the Pharisees congratulation? |
A49114 | I read in St. Ambrose, after he had expounded the rest of our Lords Prayer thus; Quid sequitur? |
A49114 | If our Saviour have prescribed us a forme, how shall any man dare to prescribe another? |
A49114 | It may be your hearts are stupid at the reading of the Scriptures, must that Ordinance therefore cease? |
A49114 | Job saith the same, How forcecible are right words? |
A49114 | Nay, when we doe the same thing in other parts of Gods Worship, why should we disallow our selves in this? |
A49114 | Or what if any should argue thus; Our Saviour hath prescribed us this form, therefore those in Hosea, Joel,& c. are unlawful to be used? |
A49114 | Quae potest esse magis spiritualis oratio quàm qua verè à Christo data est, à quo nobis Spiritus Sanctus missus est? |
A49114 | Quis discrevit? |
A49114 | St. Augustine resolves the greatest of these doubts in a Question, Quid est debitum nisi peccatum? |
A49114 | The Preface; what term of invocation gives better incouragement then( Father?) |
A49114 | What better promise then the forgiveness of sins? |
A49114 | What followes? |
A49114 | When ye pray, say, how unreasonable it is to affirm that the prescript should concern the matter, or the method only, and not the form of words also? |
A49114 | Whether the saying of these words be a part of the worship of God? |
A49114 | Who doubts of this? |
A49114 | Without doubt we may; Our Saviour bids when we pray to enter into our closets; Quere whether we may at any time pray and not enter into our closets? |
A49114 | are not the Consequences of neglecting it extremely sad? |
A49114 | are not those faults grown rise and common, against which our Saviour prescribed this prayer as a remedy? |
A49114 | for what can Christians better confide in then in their Prayers; and what Prayer is like to be more safe and effectual then this?) |
A49114 | or can any man doe it without casting on this, the roproch of imperfection and insufficiencie? |
A49114 | or he that setteth a stone tumbling down the hill, blame it for not stopping where he would have it? |
A49114 | or what reason hath any to distinguish, where the Law of God doth not? |
A49114 | was it any thing intrinsecal and essential to the Prayer? |
A49114 | what great cause prevailed with them to neglect so good a practice? |
A49114 | what is our debt but our sin? |
A49114 | what should be more dear and familiar to us? |
A49114 | what sufficient cause of divorce between these two can be assigned? |
A49114 | what works greater reverence then( Heaven?) |
A49114 | why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring? |
A90296 | 2. you only have I known of all the families of the earth, what then? |
A90296 | 7. why are these things hidden from the great and wise of the world, and revealed to babes and children, but because, O Father, so it pleased thee? |
A90296 | A captive as we are all, can not be delivered without redemption, which is Jesus Christ: and what shall the prisoner do without his ransom? |
A90296 | Abraham wanting a childe, complains, What will the Lord do for me, seeing I go childelesse, and this Eliezer of Damascus must be my heire? |
A90296 | And what is England, that it should be amongst the choice branches of the vineyard, the top boughs of the Cedars of God? |
A90296 | And what shall we say to these things? |
A90296 | But is this the utmost period of Englands sinning, and Gods shewing mercy, in continuing and restoring of the Gospel? |
A90296 | Christles men, and godles men, and hopeles men, and what greater distresse in the world? |
A90296 | Doth not Wales cry, and the North cry, yea and the West cry, Come and help us? |
A90296 | Doth the King of Heaven lay open the treasures of his wisedom, knowledge and goodnesse for us, and we despise them? |
A90296 | From such as these, who almost hath not suffered? |
A90296 | Had not the brethren strove in the wombe, Rebekah had not asked, Why am I thus? |
A90296 | He that abuseth the choisest of mercies, shall have judgement without mercy; What can help them, who reject the counsell of God for their good? |
A90296 | How often also hath this Land forfeited the Gospel? |
A90296 | How shall I make thee as Admah? |
A90296 | How shall I set thee as Zeboim? |
A90296 | Hunger can not truly be satisfied without manna, the bread of life, which is Jesus Christ: and what shall a hungry man do that hath no bread? |
A90296 | Is it not the daily language of your hearts, Whom have we in heaven but thee? |
A90296 | It is true, there be many that say, who will shew us any good? |
A90296 | Let not truth be weighed in the balance of our interest; Will not a dram of that, turn the scale with some against many arguments? |
A90296 | Liberatur pars hominum, parte pereunte; sed ● ur horum misertus sit Deus, i ● orum non misertus, quae scientia comprehendere potest? |
A90296 | Never to be borne, then not to die in thee? |
A90296 | Noli irritare crabrones, Si lapidet teras nonne ignis erumpit? |
A90296 | Now if all these be passed by, to whom is the report of the Lord made known? |
A90296 | Now is all this variety, think you, to be ascribed unto chance, as the Philosopher thought the world was made by a casuall concurrence of atomes? |
A90296 | Now what fruits doth it require? |
A90296 | Now what shall we say to these things? |
A90296 | Nunc igitur si ● ▪ ominis edium ● st ▪ quis romirum reatus? |

A90296 | O Lord, how was England of late by thy mercy delivered from this snare? |
A90296 | O blessed Jesus, how much better were it, not to be, then to be without thee? |
A90296 | O that Wales, O that Ireland, O that France, Where shall I stop? |
A90296 | Or what have they that they have not received? |
A90296 | Secondly, presupposing this variety in the outward means, how is it that thereupon, one is taken, another left? |
A90296 | Semper ego auditor tantum? |
A90296 | Si accusasse suffic ● et, quis erit innocens? |
A90296 | Thirst can not be quenched, without that water or living spring, which is Jesus Christ: and what shall a thirsty soul do without water? |
A90296 | What guides these wheels? |
A90296 | What shall be given unto thee, oh thou false tongue? |
A90296 | What then remains? |
A90296 | Who hath made the possessors of the Gospel to diff ● r from others? |
A90296 | Who thus stears his word for the good of souls? |
A90296 | Who would not purchase with the greatest distresse that heavenly comfort, which is in the return of prayers? |
A90296 | a Captain being chosen for the return of this people into Egypt: on how hath thy grace fought against our backsliding? |
A90296 | and in earth there is nothing in comparison of thee? |
A90296 | are we not the posterity of Idolatrous Progenitors? |
A90296 | how comes it, that this Iland glories in a Reformation, and Spain sits still in darknes? |
A90296 | how did their old father of Rome refresh his spirit, to see such Chariots as those provided, to bring England again unto him? |
A90296 | if they knew the value of the hidden pearl, and these things were to be purchased, what would such poor souls not part with for them? |
A90296 | is it because we were better then they? |
A90296 | might not the Lord have said unto us, What shall I do unto thee, oh Island? |
A90296 | much more may a man without the means of grace complain, What shall be done unto me, seeing I go Gospellesse? |

A90280 | And how doth it appear so to be? |
A90280 | And is it safe to deale so with the Scripture? |
A90280 | And what should possibly infect me with that leaven? |
A90280 | At the first Revelation of these things, nature is amazed, cries, how can these things be? |
A90280 | But I pray what cause of Triumph or boasting is in all this goodly discovery? |
A90280 | But may not this be said of God himselfe, as well as of his word? |
A90280 | But then saith he, the Grammarians were the Inventours of these points, why so? |
A90280 | But what doth this Law and Testimony, that is, this written Word plead, on the account whereof, it should be thus attended unto? |
A90280 | But what if all this should prove the ignorance and prejudice of Morinus? |
A90280 | But what is the great discovery here made? |
A90280 | But what sayes he now himselfe? |
A90280 | Can not Sathan cause a Voice to be heard in the Aire, and so deceive us? |
A90280 | Can we entertaine any thought of his effectuall working in us, and upon us, but it includes this whole Doctrine? |
A90280 | Could we heare a Voice from Heaven, accompanied with such a divine power, as to evidence its selfe to be from God, should we not rest in it as such? |
A90280 | Dicésve me haec omnia mutuatum à Buxtorfio? |
A90280 | Doth it not evince its selfe, with an Assurance above all that can be obteined by any Testimony whatever? |
A90280 | Have we in this sense received the Scripture from that Church, as it is called? |
A90280 | How did the Church of Rome re ● eive the Scriptures? |
A90280 | How know we that the Scripture is the Word of God; how may others come to be assured thereof? |
A90280 | How long shall this be in the heart of the Prophets that Prophesy lies? |
A90280 | How many do yet stumble& fall at it? |
A90280 | How should we be able to know it to be the Voice of God? |
A90280 | If then we thus receive the Scriptures from the Church of Rome, why( in particular) do we not receive the Apocryphall Books also, which she receives? |
A90280 | Is he not sent from the Father, by the Son? |
A90280 | Is it meet that a matter of so huge importance, called into Question by none but themselves should be cast and determined by their conjectures? |
A90280 | It was the worke of the Grammarians to know these things, therefore not to invent them; Did they invent the Radicall and servile Letters? |
A90280 | Itáne? |
A90280 | Now did not this 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 accompany the written Word at its first giving forth? |
A90280 | Now whence is this Holy Ghost? |
A90280 | Of Tradition in Generall afterwards ▪ But is it not evident that the miracles whereof they speak, are preserved in the Scripture and no otherwise? |
A90280 | Quomodo ergo Scribae quidam vulgares hanc audaciam sibi arrogâssent, textum sacrum in literis& sensu corrigere? |
A90280 | Tradition, Authority of the Church, Miracles, consent of men? |
A90280 | What Reason is in the first part of this verse, why the Scripture is not of our private interpretation? |
A90280 | What Thousands? |
A90280 | What doth it urge for its Acceptation? |
A90280 | What have they not done? |
A90280 | What have they not invented? |
A90280 | What have they not suffered? |
A90280 | What is there in the whole Book of God, that nature at first sight doth more recoyle at, then the Doctrine of the Trinity? |
A90280 | What now have they not done in adding, detracting, corrupting, forging, aspersing those Scriptures to falsifie their pretended trust? |
A90280 | What strange horrible fruits and effects have mens contrivances on this account produced? |
A90280 | What then have these men done in the discharge of their pretended trust? |
A90280 | What various, what pernitious senses shall we have to contend about? |
A90280 | Why do they do so? |
A90280 | Why do they give this Authority to that Book rather then another? |
A90280 | Would it be otherwise in this case if the Scripture must stand to the mercy of man for the Reputation of its Divinity? |
A90280 | and say, they are sold to worke all these abominations? |
A90280 | and yet continued in dread and bondage all their daies? |
A90280 | are not the first most false, and is not the last blasphemous? |
A90280 | are they ashamed as a thiefe when he is taken? |
A90280 | can wickednesse yet make any farther progresse? |
A90280 | did God appoint his word to be Written, that so he might destroy its Authority? |
A90280 | doe they think that men will part with the possession of Truth upon so easy tearmes? |
A90280 | how seriously they do of nothing? |
A90280 | if it did not, as was said, how could any man be obliged to discerne it from all delusions; if it did, how came it to loose it? |
A90280 | is that Church able to give such a credibility to any thing? |
A90280 | is there any thing in the VVriting of it by Gods Command, that should impaire its Authority? |
A90280 | may it not be extended to all places, as well as to any? |
A90280 | nay do they not boast themselves in their iniquity? |
A90280 | nay what hath that Synagogue left unattempted? |
A90280 | or doth it speak 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, and stand only upon its owne Soveraignty? |
A90280 | or doth the Scripture stand in need of such a credibility to be given to it from that Church? |
A90280 | or what opposition in the latter to that Assertion? |
A90280 | shall we say that she is authorized to give out what seemes Good to her, as the Word of God? |
A90280 | that is a Glorious light that shines into the hearts of men; Is it for want of Testimony to assert this light? |
A90280 | that they will be cast from their inheritance by divination? |
A90280 | what fools, what Sots as to such a divine work? |
A90280 | what will be the issue, or naturall inference from these Premises? |
A90280 | whither he should obey God in believing, or sin in the rejecting of it? |
A90280 | yea what hath it left unfinished, that may be needfull to convince it of perfidiousnesse? |
A90276 | 14.? |
A90276 | 3.? |
A90276 | And doth not the charge rise up with equall efficacy against you as them? |
A90276 | And why did not our Saviour on that dispute, plainly satisfy them, that Peter was to be chiefe? |
A90276 | And will they condemne others in what they practise themselves? |
A90276 | But chose rather to so determine the Question, as to evince them of the vanity of any such enquiry? |
A90276 | But do these men know what they say, or will it ever trouble the Conscience of a man in his right wits, to be charged with Schisme on this account? |
A90276 | But doe we not receive the Scripture it selfe upon the Authority of the Church? |
A90276 | But is Schisme so a sinne against Charity? |
A90276 | But let that be supposed, what is next? |
A90276 | But what hath not an irrationall attempt of enthroning opinions put men upon? |
A90276 | But what is next to this? |
A90276 | But what pretence, or colour of it, is there for this Assertion? |
A90276 | But who is sufficient for such an attempt? |
A90276 | Call the whole Church together, and try what we will doe? |
A90276 | Centuries following? |
A90276 | Do we not beare with each other? |
A90276 | Doe we live in strife, and variance? |
A90276 | Doe we not joyne in every Congregation in the Nation? |
A90276 | Doe we not joyne in externall acts of worship in Peace with the whole Church? |
A90276 | For what have we done? |
A90276 | Have not I liberty to call for Reformation according to the Scripture only? |
A90276 | Have we not seen that head taking his flesh in his teeth, tearing his body and his limbs to pieces? |
A90276 | Hence( for instance) is that doubty dispute in the world; whether a Schismatick doth belong to the Church, or noe? |
A90276 | Here lye all the difficulties, whether being come together in the name of Christ they may doe, what he hath commanded them, or no? |
A90276 | How, or by what Act did God unchurch them? |
A90276 | I aske whether these converted persons may nor possibly come together, or assemble themselves in the name of Jesus? |
A90276 | I much question, whether any one would think fit to call these men Schismaticks? |
A90276 | If any one now shall say, will you conclude, because this evill mentioned by the Apostle is Schisme, therefore nothing else is so? |
A90276 | If any shall aske, How then is it possible, that any such Churches should be raised a new? |
A90276 | If but one, why those of England, Scotland, and Ireland, were not one also; especially since they have been under one Civill Magistrate? |
A90276 | If not, what have the Romanists, Italians, to doe to judge us? |
A90276 | If seven, how they came to be one? |
A90276 | Is an injunction for the performance of duty, a grant of new Authority? |
A90276 | Is any thing more cleerly and fully prophesy''d on then Christ? |
A90276 | Is it that we are departed from the Faith of the people of God in England? |
A90276 | It is said, that true Churches were at first planted in England; how then, or by what means did they cease so to be? |
A90276 | Must we believe Armies raised, and battailes fought, Townes fired, all in pure love, and perfect Church order? |
A90276 | Not one Law of Order? |
A90276 | Shall the tumultuating of a few in a corner of Africk, blot out the remembrance of the late diffus ● on of Arrianisme over the world? |
A90276 | Sin autem Apostoli tradiderunt Eccclesiis verbum Dei sine intelligentia verbi Dei, quomodo praedicarunt Evangelium omni Creaturae? |
A90276 | Tell me when or how we were members of your Church? |
A90276 | The most of the enquiries that are made, and disputed on, whether this or that sort of men belongs to the Church or no? |
A90276 | The second thing inquired after is, what subjection we stood, or were supposed to have stood in, to the Bishops? |
A90276 | They aske us why not Ordination from the Church of Rome, as well as the Scripture? |
A90276 | What Eminencie of commission for teaching all Nations, or for, giving sinnes? |
A90276 | What do the Chiefest, choisest pillars, eldest sonnes, and I know not what of their Church at this day? |
A90276 | What hath been the residue of thir Proselytes? |
A90276 | What was peculiar in that triple command of feeding the sheep of Christ, but his triple deniall, that preceded? |
A90276 | Where was your Religion in the dayes of Christ and his Apostles? |
A90276 | Whether we had seven Churches here in England, during the Heptarchy of the Saxons, and one in Wales or but one in the whole? |
A90276 | Why so? |
A90276 | Will it evince all the members of their Church to be Regenerate, or only some? |
A90276 | and if so, whether from thence any may not discerne whereon the Vnity of the Church of England doth depend? |
A90276 | doe they not disavow all obedience to them who were their legall Superiours in that constitution? |
A90276 | doe they not kill, destroy, and ruine each other, as they are able? |
A90276 | doe they retaine either matter or forme, or any thing, but that naked name of that Church? |
A90276 | doe we break any bond of Union, wherein we are bound, by the expresse institutions of Jesus Christ? |
A90276 | doe we not worship God without disputes and divisions? |
A90276 | doth it supplant, and root out Love out of the heart? |
A90276 | have they not done the same? |
A90276 | have they not rejected their Nationall Officers, with all the bonds, tyes and ligaments of the Union of that pretended Church? |
A90276 | have they not renounced the way of worship, established by the Law of the Land? |
A90276 | have we differences and contentions in our Assemblies? |
A90276 | is it an affection of the minde attended with an inconsistency therewith? |
A90276 | let them goe to the Churches, with whom we walke, of whom we are, and aske of them concerning our wayes, our Love, and the duties of it? |
A90276 | or at least to professe that my Conscience can not be bound to any other? |
A90276 | or whether the difference of the Civill Laws of these Nations be not the only cause, that these are three Churches? |
A90276 | they will not sustaine any such crimination: Is it that we have forsaken the Church of England as under its Episcopall constitution? |
A90276 | what distinction between Peter and the rest of the Apostles on this account, is once made, or in any kind insinuated? |
A90276 | wherein doth our guilt consist? |
A90276 | wherein lyes the peculiar concernment of these 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉? |
A53704 | 6.16 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉; as many as walk according to this Rule; and what Rule is that? |
A53704 | And is it any wonder if men question whether they are from Heaven or of Men? |
A53704 | And what Power can such Churches act towards Kings, Potentates, or Rulers of Nations? |
A53704 | And what shall these Constitutions be about, what shall they extend unto? |
A53704 | And who is he that shall take this from them, or deprive them of its exercise, or Right thereunto? |
A53704 | Are these our Principles, are these our Practices? |
A53704 | Are they determined to be necessary in the Scripture, the Rule of Faith? |
A53704 | Are they of the Institution of Christ or his Apostles? |
A53704 | Be it so; What is our or his concernment herein? |
A53704 | But it was the Will of God, that there should be all those things in the Gospel Church- State also, or else why do men contend about them? |
A53704 | But may there not be other Causes of peaceable withdrawing from the Communion of a Church, besides these here enumerated? |
A53704 | But then comes in the Advantage; doth, saith he, this Kindness belong only unto some of our Parochial Churches? |
A53704 | But those of whom Justice Hobart speaks were such, for he saith they first submitted unto the Apostles and afterwards to other Pastors; What then? |
A53704 | But when all is done; what if these Constitutions and Orders should be no ways needful or useful unto the Preservation of the Peace of the Church? |
A53704 | But who are so blind as those who will not see? |
A53704 | But why should we contend fruitlesly about these things? |
A53704 | But why so? |
A53704 | But why so? |
A53704 | Do we think that all this was without c ● use? |
A53704 | Doth he judge us to be such as have no Love unto God? |
A53704 | For saith he, Have those of the Congregational way since altered their Judgment? |
A53704 | For who can think it meet, that every single Parish should be entrusted with the exercise of all Church- Rule and Power among themselves? |
A53704 | From my Concession that some at least of our Parochial Churches are true Churches; he asks, in what sense? |
A53704 | Hath D. O. yielded that in case some termes of Communion in our Church, were not insisted on, they would give over Separation? |
A53704 | How comes this allowance to be made unto them, which else where is denied? |
A53704 | I desire to know, unto whom these Rules are Obligatory? |
A53704 | If he were not, why is he not once called on to discharge his duty in curing of that Schism, or blamed for his neglect? |
A53704 | If it shall be asked then, why did they not formerly agree in the Assemby? |
A53704 | Is it not, in whether of these Churches Edification may be best obtained? |
A53704 | Is it of Divine Institution? |
A53704 | Is it that which all men must be subject to on pain of eternal damnation? |
A53704 | Is it the heart and center of Christian Religion? |
A53704 | Is it when it is taught and preach''d by the Guides and Governours of the Church, or any of them without controul? |
A53704 | Is this Church- State from Heaven? |
A53704 | It would seem to follow more evidently, that no Form at all should by any be appointed; for what shall he do that cometh after the King? |
A53704 | Our Enquiry therefore is, Whereon the Continuation of this Church- State, unto the end of the World, doth depend; what are the Causes? |
A53704 | What are the Means of it? |
A53704 | What are we Concern''d in them; is every Separation from a Church a Schisme? |
A53704 | What if a supposition that they are so, reflects dishonour on the Wisdom and Love of Christ? |
A53704 | What if any one should now dissent from these Constitutions and not submit unto them? |
A53704 | What if they are the great ways and means of breaking the Vnity and Peace of the Church? |
A53704 | What if they are unlawful and unwarrantable, the Lord Christ not having given Power and Authority unto any sort of men to make any such Constitutions? |
A53704 | What is intended by this Rule? |
A53704 | What is of Men is not from Heaven? |
A53704 | What was hereon their Conversation? |
A53704 | Who doth not almost tremble at them? |
A53704 | Who is it that shall make these Orders and Constitutions that must be observed for the Preservation of the Unity and Peace of the Church? |
A53704 | Who shall appoint the Orders intended? |
A53704 | Who shall judge of their Necessity? |
A53704 | Who shall judge them to be Lawful? |
A53704 | Who shall make it lawful for them to neglect what he requires at any time? |
A53704 | Who shall make it unlawful for the Disciples of Christ to obey the Commands of their Lord and Master? |
A53704 | Who that reads the Words can possibly pretend unto any such conception of their meaning? |
A53704 | Whose fault is it, that these Churches are not meet for the exercise of that Power which Christ hath granted unto such Churches? |
A53704 | Will they say, it is with the National, or Diocesan Churches? |
A53704 | Yea what scoffing at the power of Religion doth abound amongst us? |
A53704 | against Causeless Separations from a true Church; and by whom are they not condemned? |
A53704 | are they Competent for it? |
A53704 | are they meet? |
A53704 | are they to make such a Judgement on the Doctrine of their Guides; do they know what is heresie; have they read Epiphanius or Binius? |
A53704 | do we give any countenance unto them by any thing we say or do? |
A53704 | from Heaven or of Men? |
A53704 | hath the Reverend Author in his whole Book once attempted to prove it to be so, though this be the whole of the matter in difference between us? |
A53704 | is it Cemented, United, and Compacted or fitly framed together by these things? |
A53704 | is it the Rule given by the Apostle? |
A53704 | such as prefer our own profit before the Unity of the Church? |
A53704 | what shall any one ordain in the Church, which the Lord Christ thought not meet to ordain? |
A53704 | who they are that ought to yeild Obedience unto them? |

A87009 | And if such arguments as these will not prove Episcopacy to be of Apostolicall constitution, what will prevaile with men so to esteeme it? |
A87009 | And is it impossible for any Author that was once corrupted, ever to be reformed, for that to be cleansed, which was once sullyed? |
A87009 | And so what could have been more exactly performed, than that which these Objectors can not take notice of to be done at all? |
A87009 | And then can it be said, that they were frustrated in their hope? |
A87009 | And then what analogie beares this with the hypothesis of the Prefacer, what unkinde aspect hath it on the Prelatist''s pretensions? |
A87009 | And then what offence was there in my calling them Apostolicall persons? |
A87009 | And what I pray you is the reason of his Episcopal censure? |

A87009 | But it may be said, what need we any more writing, what need we any truer proof, or testimony? |
A87009 | Does all this relate to immediate Revelation, and are all things done thereby which we are said to doe in the spirit? |
A87009 | Have I said a word in defence of those, that have any of those foisted passages in them? |
A87009 | How many things both have alwaies deceived, and doe daily deceive persons, that are not suspicious, and upon their guard? |
A87009 | I pray where doth our Saviour testifie this, that they desired to see it, and saw it not? |

A90288 | What then is it that prevailes upon men to break through so many disappointments against the Lord, as they doe? |
A90288 | What then shall be done, they''l say? |
A90288 | Whether their counsels be not leavened with the wrath of God? |
A90288 | Why first, I desire an institution of this ordinance in the Church? |
A90288 | Why should our unbeleeving spirits charge that upon the God of Truth, which wee dare not impute to a man that is a worme, a lyar? |
A90288 | Will a man faile in his ingagement unto him, who upon that ingagement undertakes a difficult imployment for his sake? |
A90288 | Will it not be destructive to stand out against a confirmed People? |
A90288 | Will the Laws against Idolatry and Blasphemy? |
A90288 | and must not these considerations be preserved immixed, that the formall reason of proceeding in one Court, may not be of any weight in the other? |
A90288 | and that Church power, whereby it is effected? |
A90288 | are they the Ministers of the Gospel? |
A90288 | hath it not so ere now fallen out? |
A90288 | is Gospel Conviction no meanes? |

A53736 | And why must it be esteemed quite of another Nature, so that herein the Soul should only Complement, and be real in what is before expressed? |
A53736 | And why so? |
A53736 | Are we able to make an Atonement for our Sins? |
A53736 | But I say again, what is it that this Man intends? |
A53736 | But he knew that these were the words of the Apostle, or he did not? |
A53736 | But how will he prove that I intended any other sence than that of the Apostle? |
A53736 | But is he not ashamed of this Ignorance? |
A53736 | But what doth he intend? |
A53736 | But what if I say no such thing, or had no such Design in that place? |
A53736 | But what in the mean time is become of Modesty, Truth and Honesty? |

A53736 | But what now if the Divine Nature it self have not such an endless boundless, bottomless Grace and Compassion as the Doctor now talks of? |

A53736 | But why is this to be esteemed only a pretty Complement? |
A53736 | But will the Father Elect and the Son Redeem none but those who are Holy, and Reject and Reprobate all others? |
A53736 | Can any Thing we do be a full Satisfaction for our Sins, or deliver us from the wrath of God ▪ that is the Punishment due to our Sins? |
A53736 | Can we be forgiven without an Atonement? |
A53736 | Can we of our selves do any good without the Aid and Assistance of Grace? |
A53736 | Did not the Son of God by assuming our Humane Nature, continuing what he was, become what he was not? |
A53736 | Do men reckon that there is no Accompt to be given of such falsifications? |
A53736 | Doth Christ in his Love do nothing unto the quickning and Conversion of Men? |
A53736 | Doth he either not at all understand what I say, or doth he not care what he says himself? |
A53736 | Doth he imagine that he ballanceth Probable means for the attaining of an end, chusing some and rejecting others? |
A53736 | Doth it not build all our Faith, Obedience and Salvation on that Consideration? |
A53736 | Doth not the Death of Christ expiate former Iniquities, and remove the whole Guilt of Sin? |
A53736 | Doth not the Scripture declare, that Christ is God as well as Man? |
A53736 | Doth this Election and Redemption, suppose Holiness in us, or is it without any regard to it? |
A53736 | Doth this Man think that God''s Ends as ours have an Existence in themselves out of him, antecedent unto any Acts of his Divine Wisdom? |
A53736 | For what Personal Graces are there in Christ as Mediator, which do not belong to him either as God or Man? |

A53736 | How else did God Redeem his Church with his own Blood? |
A53736 | How should this appear? |
A53736 | I shall only briefly touch on some of the impotent dictates of this great Corrector of Divinity and Religion? |
A53736 | If he did know them to be his words, why doth he put such a sense upon them as in his own Apprehension is derogatory to Gospel- obedience? |
A53736 | Is it not a Personal Grace and Excellency that he is God and Man in one Person which belongs not to him either as God or Man? |
A53736 | Is it that he loveth his Church and cherisheth it as an Husband? |
A53736 | Is it that there is a conjugal Relation between Christ and the Church? |
A53736 | Is it that we should Kill them, stifle the Creature that is formed in us, in the Womb? |
A53736 | Is it that we should kill them, stifle the Creature that is found in us, in the Womb? |
A53736 | Is it, that the love of Christ as he is God is Eternal? |
A53736 | Is the Contrary hereunto the Doctrine that the present Church of England approveth and instructs her Children in? |
A53736 | Is the contrary to these things the Doctrine of the Church of England? |
A53736 | Is there an inconsistency between Christ and the Covenant? |
A53736 | Is there any one Word or Tittle in my discourse, of any such knowledge of the Nature or Properties of God as whereof Revelation is wholly silent? |
A53736 | Is this our Crime, that which we are thus charged with, and trad ● ced for? |
A53736 | Is this the Religion which is Authorised to be Preached, and are these the Opinions that are Licensed to be publshed unto all the World? |
A53736 | Nothing as to the Administration of strength against Temptations? |
A53736 | Nothing as to their Consolation and Establishment? |
A53736 | Nothing to the Purification and Sanctification of Believers? |
A53736 | Or doth any Man think that we will be scared from our Faith and Hope, by such weak and frivolous Attempts against them? |
A53736 | Or is it my way and manner of expressing these things wherewith he is so provoked? |
A53736 | Or that the Church gives up it self in chaste and holy obedience unto him as her Spouse? |
A53736 | That he is the Bridegroom and Husband of the Church, and that the Church is his Bride and Spouse? |
A53736 | That we should give him to the Old Man to be devoured? |
A53736 | This New Creature is fed, cherished, nourished, kept alive by the Fruits of Holiness: to what End hath God given us New Hearts, and New Creatures? |
A53736 | This new Creature is fed, Cherished, Nourished and kept alive, by the Fruits of Holiness, To what End hath God given us new Hearts and New Natures? |
A53736 | To whom I pray is it a favour, or what doth the man intend by such a senseless scoff? |
A53736 | Was Paul crucifyed for you? |
A53736 | What doth this Man intend? |
A53736 | What followes upon these plain Positive Divine Assertions of the Scripture? |
A53736 | What have I done to him? |
A53736 | What is become of a common Regard to God and Man? |
A53736 | What is it he would assert? |
A53736 | What is it he would deny? |
A53736 | What is the Design of all this Prophaneness? |
A53736 | What should we do in this Case? |
A53736 | What then? |
A53736 | What would he be at? |
A53736 | Why do not they speak to him to leave fooling, and to speak sense as they do to others? |
A53736 | Why, what Personal Graces are there in Christ as Mediator which do not belong unto him either as God or Man? |
A53736 | Would he now have me to prove this by Testimonies or Arguments or the consent of the Ancient Church? |
A53736 | Ye believe in God, believe also in me; that is, not in me but in the Gospel? |
A53736 | Yea, but will he damn Men if they do not obey his Commands for Holiness? |
A53736 | and how is this done? |
A53736 | and why so? |
A53736 | how have I provoked him that he should sacrifice his Conscience and Reputation unto such a Revenge? |
A53736 | how shall we escape Hell, or get to Heaven, when we can neither Expiate for our part Sins or do any Good for the Time to come? |
A53736 | must he yet hear it again? |
A53736 | or is it that it is Fruitful or effective of Good things unto the persons Beloved? |
A53736 | or is it that it is Unchangeable? |
A53736 | what if one should say it was real only in this latter Expression and Engagement, that the former was only a Pretty Complement? |
A53736 | wherein have I injured him? |
A53736 | whither will Prejudice and Corrupt Designs carry and transport the Minds of Men? |
A53736 | who ever said so? |
A53686 | 14. or what shall we say unto these things, or this is that which is to be said herein? |
A53686 | 22.36, Which is the great Commandment in the Law? |
A53686 | And Judah said, what shall we say unto my Lord? |
A53686 | And is it not of Faith alone, which is that Grace whereby they apply themselves unto the Mercy or Grace of God through the mediation of Christ? |
A53686 | And were it possible, where is the Righteousness of punishing any one for that which no way belongs unto him? |
A53686 | At least he might plead his Faith as his own Duty and Work, to be imputed unto him for Righteousness? |
A53686 | But how is this proved? |
A53686 | But what if all this should prove a wilful prevarication, not becoming a Good man, much less a Minister of the Gospel? |
A53686 | But what will ensue on this Explanation of the Acceptance of our imperfect Righteousness unto Justification upon the merit of Christ? |
A53686 | But why so, why must we assent to one part of the Gospel unto the exclusion of another? |
A53686 | But wilt thou know O vain man that Faith without Works is dead? |
A53686 | By what Right? |
A53686 | Can we not be pardoned, but we must thereby of necessity be made Sons, Heirs of God, and Coheirs with Christ? |
A53686 | Credisne te non posse salvari nisi per mortem Christi? |
A53686 | Cur non dixerit tanto praestantioris foederis factus est sacerdos Jesus? |
A53686 | Did he thereby make, declare or constitute him righteous? |
A53686 | Do they leave the prayer of the Publican, and betake themselves unto that of the Pharisee? |
A53686 | Do they plead their own Righteousness, Obedience, and Duties to this purpose? |
A53686 | Do we make void the Law through Faith? |
A53686 | Do we saith the Apostle( by the Doctrine of Justification by Faith without Works) make void the Law? |
A53686 | Do we then make void the Law through Faith? |
A53686 | Doth any other thought enter into their Hearts? |
A53686 | Doth the Gospel require a lower degree of Love to God, a less perfect Love than the Law did? |
A53686 | For any to use them now in the same way, and to the same purpose, is esteemed rude, undisciplinary, and even ridiculous, but on what Grounds? |
A53686 | For how shall man be just with God? |
A53686 | For unto what purpose is it to contend about them, whilst the substance of the Doctrine it self is openly opposed and rejected? |
A53686 | For what else could hide or cover our sins but his Righteousness? |
A53686 | For what need can there be of any of them, if God justifieth the ungodly? |
A53686 | For what should justifie him whom the Gospel condemns? |
A53686 | For what should they else do, when they knew well enough, that in their way, and by their propositions they were not to be attained? |
A53686 | For who shall lay any thing unto the charge of Gods Elect, who are once justified before him? |
A53686 | For without Faith it is impossible to please God: And to what purpose should the Apostle exclude evil works and hypocritical, from our Justification? |
A53686 | How shall we answer what is laid unto our Charge? |
A53686 | How shall we fly from the wrath to come? |
A53686 | How shall we that are dead unto sin, live any longer therein? |
A53686 | How then are we made the Righteousness of God in him? |
A53686 | How then did he make our sins to be his own, and how did he bear our Iniquities? |
A53686 | How then was he Justified by Works when he offered his Son on the Altar? |
A53686 | How? |
A53686 | I ask again what they think hereof; And upon a supposition that he will do so, what they further think will become of themselves? |
A53686 | If thou Lord shouldst mark Iniquities, O Lord, who should stand? |
A53686 | If thou Lord shouldst mark Iniquity, O Lord who shall stand? |
A53686 | Is it any thing but Soveraign Grace and Mercy, through the Blood of Christ? |
A53686 | It is the Answer of the Apostles unto the Jaylors enquiry; Sirs, What must I do to be saved? |
A53686 | Murmuret jam quantum voluerit, insipiens cogitatio mea, dicens Quis enim es tu,& quanta est illa gloria, quibusve meritis hanc obtinere speras? |
A53686 | My Enquiry is how I shall come before the Lord, and bow my self before the high God? |
A53686 | Of him will I beg pardon, of him will I desire Indulgence, what other hope is there for sinners? |
A53686 | Quae autem est spes? |
A53686 | Quid potest esse omnis humana justitia coram Deo? |
A53686 | Quomodo ergo dicit delictorum meorum? |
A53686 | Secondly, The Apostle answers, as we do also, Do we then make void the Law through Faith? |
A53686 | That he is so, there can be no question, the whole enquiry is, how he is so? |
A53686 | That is, Dost thou believe that thou canst not be saved but by the death of Christ? |
A53686 | The Question was now reduced unto this; on what Grounds he might or could be justified in the sight of God? |
A53686 | The sinners in Sion are afraid, fearfulness hath surprized the Hypocrites, who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? |
A53686 | This Relief it will be said, is to be had in Christ alone; it is true, but under what Consideration? |
A53686 | Was it not free unto God to appoint what way, method and order he would, whereby these things should be communicated unto us? |
A53686 | Was not Abraham our Father justified by Works, when he had offered Isaac his Son upon the Altar? |
A53686 | What Works? |
A53686 | What doth it profit my Brethren though a man say he hath Faith and have not Works, can Faith save him? |
A53686 | What follow unto the same purpose he omits, and what he adds as my words are not so, but his own, ubi pudor, ubi sides? |
A53686 | What must I do to be saved? |
A53686 | What shall we do to be saved? |
A53686 | What shall we do to be saved? |
A53686 | What shall we say then, shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? |
A53686 | What shall we then say? |
A53686 | What will follow from hence? |
A53686 | Whence the Prophet says in the Psalm, If thou Lord shouldst mark iniquity, who should stand? |
A53686 | Where then is Boasting? |
A53686 | Where then, they will say, is the necessity of Obedience from the Obligation of the Law, if God will not damn them that Transgress it? |
A53686 | Wherewith( saith one of them) shall I come before the Lord, and bow my self before the high God? |
A53686 | Wherewithall shall we appear before God? |
A53686 | Who shall now dare to say, that he underwent the Penalty of the Law for us indeed, but he yielded Obedience unto it for himself only? |
A53686 | how shall I escape the wrath to come? |
A53686 | in whom else could we wicked and ungodly ones be justified, or esteemed Righteous, but in the Son of God alone? |
A53686 | it is excluded, by what Law? |
A53686 | shall I come before him with Burnt- offerings, with Calves of a year old? |
A53686 | that is, is there in this matter unrighteousness with God? |
A53686 | what shall I plead in judgment before God, that I may be absolved, acquitted, justified? |
A53686 | what shall we speak 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 and how shall we justify our selves, God hath found out our Iniquity? |
A53686 | where shall I have a Righteousness that will endure a Trial in his presence? |
A53686 | who among us shall dwell with Everlasting burnings? |
A53686 | why should we debate about the order and beautifying of the Rooms in an House, whilst Fire is set unto the whole? |
A53686 | will indeed this Faith save him? |
A53686 | will the Lord be pleased with thousands of Rams, or with ten thousands of Rivers of Oyl? |
A90287 | And now Chistian Reader what shall we say to these things? |
A90287 | Are indeed these persons any better thēMahumetans as to church priviledges? |
A90287 | Before I asserted the use of the word, I instanced in all the places where it is used, and evinced the sense of it from them? |
A90287 | But do I indeed undertake the cause of the Donatists? |
A90287 | But doth not this Reverend Author know that this is wholly denyed by us? |
A90287 | But how doth our gathering of Churches denie them to be true churches? |
A90287 | But is this done as becomes a Christian, a Minister, a Brother? |
A90287 | But what doth all this availe him in reference to his designe in hand? |
A90287 | But who so blind as they that will not see? |
A90287 | Doth he charge that apostasy upon those whom he calls Independents as such, or if he should, could he tolerably defend his charge? |
A90287 | Doth he denie the dissolution of this union as to the interest of any member by it in the body, to be by apostasy from the profession of the Gospell? |
A90287 | Doth he evince it from any thing deliver''d in that treatise he undertakes to confute? |
A90287 | Doth he expect that I should undertake their defence? |
A90287 | Doth he prove that the breach of this union, is under that formality properly Schisme? |
A90287 | Doth our granting them to be true Churches, also grant that all the Saints in England are members of their Churches? |
A90287 | He asketh first, Why may not this be a sufficient foundation for their Ministry, as well as for their Baptisme? |
A90287 | However for my part, who am forced to beare all this wrath and storme, what hath he to lay to my charge? |
A90287 | I dare not suppose that he will aske why then do I separate from them? |
A90287 | I here denie that I unminister their ministers, unchurch their Churches; hath this Author any more to say to me, or those of my perswasion? |
A90287 | I shall not complaine of my usage: but what am I? |
A90287 | If it be so, can Mr. C. hardly refraine from calling a man Sathan, for speaking the truth? |
A90287 | Is Schisme every breach of union? |
A90287 | Is he not filled with envie to take notice in what love without dissimulation I walk with many of the Presbyterian judgment? |
A90287 | Is it not disproved sufficiently in that very Treatise which he undertakes to answer? |
A90287 | Is preaching to convert heathens a duty of worship? |
A90287 | Is that the question in present agitation? |
A90287 | Is there any thing in my assertion whither a man may separate from any church or no? |
A90287 | May I possibly retaine hopes of making my selfe understood by this Reverend Author? |
A90287 | Now wherein have we separated from them as to the breach of any such union? |
A90287 | Shall I call in witnesses as to the particular under consideration? |
A90287 | So then, ordination by a Presbytery, Is it seemes opposed by me and my party; but I pray Sir, who told you so? |
A90287 | These things will not be peace in the latter end; shall the sword devour for ever? |
A90287 | This will gratify all sects, Quakers, and all with a toleration: how I pray? |
A90287 | Thus then he; is not this, reader, at once to unchurch all the churches of England since the reformation? |
A90287 | What Question doth our Reverend Author meane? |
A90287 | What hath the Reverend Author to charge upon me with reference thereunto? |
A90287 | What may I expect from others, when so grave and Reverend a person as this Author is reported to be, shall thus deal with me? |
A90287 | What then? |
A90287 | Who told him that raising causlesse differences in a Church, and then separating from it, is not in my judgment schisme? |
A90287 | am I changed in this also? |
A90287 | any thing of stating the difference betwixt the Presbiterians and Independants? |
A90287 | any thing upon what Corruption he may lawfully so do? |
A90287 | are not particular churches instituted of Christ? |
A90287 | are their ordinances and churches so denied by me as is pretended? |
A90287 | are these the waies of peace, love and truth that the Reverend Author walks in? |
A90287 | are they obedient to them? |
A90287 | as far as I can gather: might not then the trouble of this Chapter have been spared? |
A90287 | but is that the thing under consideration? |
A90287 | can I not speak of their cause in Reference to the Catholick Church and its union, but it must be affirmed that I plead for them? |
A90287 | can any one do so without his consenting to do so? |
A90287 | did I deny that they sided and made parties about their divisions and differences? |
A90287 | did I say I was unwilling? |
A90287 | did he enquire so far after my mind in them, as without breach of charity to be able to make such positive and expresse assertions concerning them? |
A90287 | do I anywhere do it upon this account? |
A90287 | do I at all fix it on this fo ● t of account when I come so to doe? |
A90287 | do I labour to exempt them from Schisme? |
A90287 | do I not condemne all their practises, and pretensions from the beginning to the end? |
A90287 | do I not every where positively deny that there is any such separation made? |
A90287 | do I not immediately without any compulsion very freely fall upon the worke? |
A90287 | do I plead for thē? |
A90287 | do they enjoy any priviledge of Lawes? |
A90287 | do they owne their Authority? |
A90287 | doth he produce any other testimonies out of what I have spoken, deliver''d, or written else where, and on other occasions to make it good? |
A90287 | doth not this whole discourse proceed upon a supposition that it is otherwise with them with whom he hath to do? |
A90287 | is any thing, word, title, or iota spoken to it? |
A90287 | is it any thing to me, or to any thing I affirme, how, where, and when, they managed their disputes, and debated their controversies? |
A90287 | is it likely any such thing should be? |
A90287 | is it my present businesse to state the difference between the Presbyterians and Independents? |
A90287 | is it not the duty of every believer to join himselfe to some one of them? |
A90287 | is it possible at once with the same arguments to charge them? |
A90287 | is not their circumcision uncircūcision? |
A90287 | is not their obedience to that command, their consent so to do? |
A90287 | is this consent any thing but his voluntary submission to the ordinances of worship therein? |
A90287 | it is true there is mention of a church at Cenchrea, but is there any mention that that church made any separation from the church of Corinth? |
A90287 | nay can common honesty allow such a state of a question, if that were the businesse in hand to be put upon me? |
A90287 | or is every breach of Union schisme? |
A90287 | or that the differences mention''d were between the members of these severall churches? |
A90287 | shall such persons give their children any right to church priviledges? |
A90287 | that I condemn all other Churches in the world as no Churches; but who I pray told him these things? |
A90287 | though it were valid in its administration, that is, was celebrated in obedience to the cōmād of Christ, is it not null to thē? |
A90287 | to be that great multitude who throughout the world, professe the Doctrine of the Gospell, and subjection to Jesus Christ? |
A90287 | was it at all incumbent on me, to prove that they did not manage their differences in private, as well as in publick? |
A90287 | was not this acknowledged above? |
A90287 | were not separations made, if not from that church, yet in that church as well as divisions? |
A90287 | were there not divisions into parties as well as in judgments? |
A90287 | what then? |
A90287 | when, wherein, by what meanes have I opposed it? |
A90287 | why then should they be denied their liberty? |
A90287 | will he manifest it by saying more against them in no more words, then I haved one? |
A39120 | & c. What contradiction is there unto sense in either of these? |
A39120 | ( 2) I would ask, whether this promise of Faith be not a part of the New Covenant? |
A39120 | ( 2) What, by being justified in the sight of God? |
A39120 | ( 3) I would ask whether the condition required of Adam, were meritorious of eternal life? |
A39120 | ( 3) I would ask, whether the promise of Faith, be not an effect of Christs death? |
A39120 | ( 3) Why may not Faith be a medium to evidence our Justification before Faith, as well as our Election before Faith? |
A39120 | 1. e Ubi tuta firmaque infirmis securitas& requies nisi in vulneribus salvatorū? |
A39120 | A late Writer sayes well, Why may not Christians and Schollars write plainly against one anothers Judgement, with a loving consent? |
A39120 | And can there be Faith without knowledge? |
A39120 | And if so, how can they, who conceive not of things Natural, understand those things that are Heavenly and Spiritual? |
A39120 | And what do our Brethren say less less then this? |
A39120 | And why not? |
A39120 | And( 3) when we are justified in the sight of God? |
A39120 | Are not Faith and Repentance, the fruits of our Reconciliation, by the blood of Christ? |
A39120 | But doth the Apostle account neither of these Justifications much worth? |
A39120 | But in earnest is Mr. Baxters Doctrine of a middle strain? |
A39120 | But is the Gospel to be charged with these Dissentions? |
A39120 | But what are the three things which he finds in these Texts to ground his charge on? |
A39120 | But why not immediately and absolutely? |
A39120 | But will it follow from hence, That all Publick Disputations, and Reasonings about matters of Faith, are perverse Disputings? |
A39120 | By his favor, who did ever say ▪ that men are damned for not being objects of an Absolute Promise? |
A39120 | Could they have returned to God, unless God had returned to them*? |
A39120 | Dost thou believe to come to glory, not by thy own merits, but by the vertue and merit of the Passion of our Lord Jesus Christ? |
A39120 | Doth he think this Sermon such a solid peece, that all men living will be struck dumb therewith? |
A39120 | Ergo, We were not elected before Faith? |
A39120 | Faith is the evidence of things not seen; An unsound Assertion? |
A39120 | For( 1) how doth the riches of Gods grace appear, if our Justification doth depend upon terms and conditions, performed by us? |
A39120 | Had Parker, Twisse, Pemble,& c. nothing at all to say in defence of their Doctrine? |
A39120 | Hath Mr. Woodbridges humanity no better language to bestow upon them? |
A39120 | Have all those Reverend Divines before mentioned, obscured the Gospel? |
A39120 | He that spared not his own Son, but gave him to death for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? |
A39120 | How doth this sow pillows under mens elbows, or lull asleep in security, more then the Doctrine of absolute Election? |
A39120 | How shall we distinguish between precepts and promises? |
A39120 | If he shall ask, Why God doth command them to beleeve in Christ, seeing he never intended they should have any good or benefit by Christ? |
A39120 | If it includes the rest, why not this? |
A39120 | Is he therefore joyned with God in the formal act of Justification? |
A39120 | Is it an irrational thing to receive life, as a gift, and not as wages? |
A39120 | It were very strange, if the Mercy and Faithfulness of God, should not be as sure a Foundation to relie upon, as our own Works? |
A39120 | MR. W. in the next place, propoundes this Question, Whether Faith it selfe be not given to us by vertue of the Covenant made with us? |
A39120 | May not God in the same Covenant, promise both Christ and Faith? |
A39120 | Mr. W. demands,( 1) Whether there be an absolute promise made to every man, that God will give him grace? |
A39120 | Now had he no works of the New Law, as you call them? |
A39120 | Now shall we hence infer, That God was not just before? |
A39120 | Now were all these Champions of Truth, a pack of Antinomians and Libertines? |
A39120 | Now what can be imagined more derogatory to the Grace of God? |
A39120 | Now, what is this to the purpose? |
A39120 | Now, when God set his love upon them, he said unto them, Live? |
A39120 | O man, who art thou that disputest against God? |
A39120 | Or can he judge of mens Answers before he hath heard them? |
A39120 | Or ought we therefore to forbear to Preach the Gospel? |
A39120 | So say I, Why may we not Reason against each others Opinions in a friendly manner? |
A39120 | THat we may avoid mistakes, I shall briefly declare,( 1) What we do understand by Justification? |
A39120 | THe Question depending between me, and Mr. W. is not, Whether we are justified by Faith? |
A39120 | That the Promise was to them, and to their children: Now what was that Promise, but Ero Deus tuus& seminis tui? |
A39120 | That the spirit, which works Faith is given us by vertue of the Covenant made with us; But how doth Mr. W. prove the contradiction? |
A39120 | The Question is not, whether this gracious sentence of Absolution, be declared; but whether it be not in the Brest of God, before it be declared? |
A39120 | The next thing propounded was, What is meant by the sight of God? |
A39120 | Was it ever known that men should be counted worthy of death, for not being the objects of an absolute Promise? |
A39120 | Was the Apostle to be charged with perverseness when he reasoned both with Jews and Gentiles, as his manner was? |
A39120 | Was this famous Doctor an Antinomian? |
A39120 | What is it to die, or to bear chastisement for another, but to undergo that death which the other should have undergone? |
A39120 | Whence have the Saints drawn all their comfort? |
A39120 | Whether Faith therein, be to be taken Properly, or Tropically? |
A39120 | Whether God were wel- pleased with unregenerate men? |
A39120 | Will it follow, That because the Elect are justified in for ● Dei, before they believe; therefore all men are redeemed, and justified? |
A39120 | Would not all men have censured his Writings to be but strifes of words? |
A39120 | and is not the Spirit in that act, the cause of Faith? |
A39120 | g or that Gods justice was a consequent of his sending Christ? |
A39120 | how can we hope, and trust in him? |
A39120 | how can we rejoyce or be thankful to him, if we be not perswaded of his love, and bounty towards us? |
A39120 | or, whether this immanent act of God doth not secure the sinner from condemnation? |

A90266 | Are their souls think you more precicious to you then themselves? |
A90266 | Are thy lusts like the streames of Jordan, yet they runne back from his Chariots of salvation? |
A90266 | Art not thou it that dried the sea, the waters of the great deep, that hath made the depths of the sea a way for the ransomed to passe over? |
A90266 | Because a womans time is come, therefore shall she have no midwife? |
A90266 | But what if it should prove in the close, that they have followed divine Directions? |

A90266 | Can a servant do his masters work, without knowing his pleasure? |
A90266 | Can a woman forget her child, that she should not have compassion on the sonne of her wombe? |
A90266 | Did the people receive no other refreshment, but only in respect of their bodily thirst? |
A90266 | Do you not then fight against God, wound Jesus Christ, and prosecute him as an evil doer? |
A90266 | Do you think if our Armies had not walked in a troden path they could have made such journeys as they have done of late? |
A90266 | Friend art thou stronger then Horeb, yet that trembled at the presence of this mighty God, whom it never had provoked? |
A90266 | God is ingaged to his people for all their injoyments, and will he quietly suffer himselfe to be robbed and his people spoyled? |
A90266 | God( saith the Apostle) hath delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver, now what conclusion makes he of this experience? |

A90266 | How doe''s David run them over with admiration, closing every stop with, His mercy endureth for ever? |

A90266 | Is it not so in our days? |
A90266 | Is it not worth the while to consider how they were restrained? |
A90266 | Is not the wasting of the Westerne Nations, at this day from hence, that they have served the whore to deck her selfe, with the spoyles of the spouse? |

A90266 | Now if all these should be kept from us at that distance wherein they fall in their accomplishment in respect of time, what would they availe us? |

A90277 | And And wouldst thou willingly be intangled againe? |
A90277 | And shall we be negligent under his eye? |
A90277 | But alas, this is but a which, or a new cord, to bind a Gyant temptation withall: What thinke you of the third part of the starres of heaven? |
A90277 | But that which God will have to be strong, let us not think weak? |
A90277 | But was not our Saviour Christ himselfe tempted; and is it evill to be brought into the same state and condition with him? |
A90277 | But what security have we hereof? |
A90277 | Can such ingratitude, unbeliefe, rebellion, befall me? |
A90277 | Dost thou flagge in thy profession? |
A90277 | Had they not shone in the firmament of the Church? |
A90277 | Hath Satan any more friendly aime and intention towards thee, who is a sharer in every Temptation? |
A90277 | He that heareth these words of mine, and doth them not, is like a man that built his house upon the sand: but what doth this house of profession do? |
A90277 | How many are rendred uselesse in the world, by their frowardnesse and discontent? |
A90277 | How many have all their comforts blasted, and peace disturbed, by their naturall passion and peevishnesse? |
A90277 | How shall they wound Jesus Christ who dyed for them? |
A90277 | I said in my prosperity I shall never be moved: all is well, and will be well, but what was at hand, what lay at the doore, that David thought not of? |
A90277 | I who have had such a Reputation in the Church of God, shall I now lose it by giving way to this lust? |
A90277 | I will keep thee, how? |
A90277 | I will not doe it; shall then a man rest in it, that his heart will be stedfast? |
A90277 | In generall, all we can looke for is from our hearts; what a mans heart is that is, Hee; but now what is the heart of a man in such a season? |
A90277 | Is it likely that thou shouldest hold out therein, when thou canst not watch with me one houre? |
A90277 | Is this then our state and condition? |
A90277 | It may be when first it began to presse upon the soule, the soule was amazed with the ugly appearance of what it aymed at, and cryed, am I a dogge? |
A90277 | Joseph had this; and therefore on the first appearance of a temptation, he cries out; how can I do this great evill, and sinne against God? |
A90277 | Now how can they preserve a man? |
A90277 | Now how is this done? |
A90277 | Now if a mans peace be such, doe you think that can preserve him, which can not preserve its selfe? |
A90277 | Now where these things are, are not men carnall? |
A90277 | Now withstanding of Temptation is heart worke; and when it comes like a flood, can such a rotten turfe as a wicked mans heart, stand before it? |
A90277 | Obj: But what need this great indeavour and carefulnesse? |
A90277 | Oh how few will be able to stand and hold out? |
A90277 | Oh keep me that I enter not in; vestigia terrent, behold the footsteps of them that have gone in; whom doe you see retiring without a wound? |
A90277 | Shall such an one as I fly? |
A90277 | Suppose a man is not a Believer, but only a Professor of the Gospell, what can the heart of such an one doe? |
A90277 | The Heart of a man will promise him very faire before a Temptation comes; am I a dogge, sayes Hazael, that I should doe this thing? |
A90277 | There is no Saint of God, but puts a valuation on the peace he hath: yet how many of them faile in the day of temptation? |
A90277 | They have another consideration also, and that is, the vilenesse of sinning against God? |
A90277 | Were they not sensible more then enough of their owne honour, height, usefulnesse, and reputation? |
A90277 | What can be of more efficacy and prevalency? |
A90277 | What did they, we do not? |
A90277 | What sayes our Saviour to them? |
A90277 | What sort of man is free from this folly in one thing or other? |
A90277 | What were those before us, that we are not? |
A90277 | What work hath the spirit of error made amongst us? |
A90277 | What, deny my master, the Son of God; my Redeemer; who loves me? |
A90277 | Wherein then in such a season must lie the peculiar neglect of the word of Christs patience? |
A90277 | Who would go out of his way, to have his armes full of losse and dung? |
A90277 | Why doth terror, or threates turne us aside, from a due constancy in the performance of our duty? |
A90277 | Why should we so feare, and labour to avoid temptation? |
A90277 | Would any one have thought it possible, that such and such professors in our daies, should have fallen into waies of selfe, of flesh, of the world? |
A90277 | You will say, how shall we know wherein the word of Christs patience in any season is like to suffer? |
A90277 | You will say, what provision is intended, and where is it to be laid up? |
A90277 | a blemish at least? |
A90277 | and if any urging particular Temptation, befall any, what instances almost have we of any that escape? |
A90277 | and may we not see how it is come to passe? |
A90277 | and shall we be negligent in this thing? |
A90277 | and whence is it, that he hath this estimation of the most desirable things in the world? |
A90277 | are they not cursing their Tempters, and the Temptations that they entred in? |
A90277 | art thou negligent in duties of praying or hearing? |
A90277 | at first they will venture on the company, abhorring the thoughts of practising; their lewdnesse: but what is the issue? |
A90277 | by closing with this, or that publick evill? |
A90277 | canst thou not watch one houre? |
A90277 | does thy delight in the people of God faint and grow cold? |
A90277 | doth it not grieve him, to see us expose our selves so to danger, after he hath given us warning upon warning? |
A90277 | doth thy light burne dimme? |
A90277 | even the faithfulnesse of God; God is faithfull who will not suffer you& c. And wherein is God''s faithfulnesse seen and exercised? |
A90277 | how few keep their garments girt about them, and undefiled? |
A90277 | how long do they believe? |
A90277 | how many are disquieted even by their owne gentlenesse and sanctity? |
A90277 | how many poor, miserably, spiritually, wounded soules have we every where? |
A90277 | if such mighty pillars have been cast to the ground, such Cedars blowne downe, how shall I stand before temptations? |
A90277 | if we wilfully neglect, or cast away our interest in the promise of preservation, is it any wonder, if we be not preserved? |
A90277 | is it not because amongst the great multitude of Professors, that we have, there are few that keep the word of the patience of Christ? |
A90277 | is it not because our affections are entangled with the things and considerations proposed unto us? |
A90277 | is it not because there is unmortified carnall feare abiding in us, that tumultuates in such a season? |
A90277 | is it not in leaning to our own counsels and understandings? |
A90277 | is it not in setting a value on the world and the things of it, which he hath stained and trampled under foot? |
A90277 | is it not in the slighting of his peculiar lot, his people, and casting them into the same considerations with the men of the world? |
A90277 | is the word of Christs patience effectuall in them? |
A90277 | is this thy dying for me; to be dead in security, when I am dying for thee? |
A90277 | is thy zeale cold? |
A90277 | it can not be; All the Arguments that are suited to give check to the heart in such a condition, are mustered up; did not Peter thinke you do so? |
A90277 | oh what thoughts of heart hath he concerning me, whose eye is upon me? |
A90277 | or if thou dost observe them, thou doest it not with that life and vigour as formerly? |
A90277 | or if thou keep it up, yet thy wheeles are oyled by some sinister respects from within or without? |
A90277 | or that they should be turned away after foolish, vaine, ridiculous opinions, diserting the Gospell of Christ? |
A90277 | or though it give to others as great a blaze, as formerly, yet thou seest not so clearly the face of God in Christ, by it as thou hast done? |
A90277 | p. 122. l. 3. not? |
A90277 | persons walking in the vanities and wayes of this world, yet boasting of their sense of the love of God; shall we believe them? |
A90277 | saith he, the peace of God shall do it: what is this peace of God? |
A90277 | shall I contemne his honour, despise his love, trample his Gospell in the mire under the feet of men, turne aside others from his ways? |
A90277 | shall I now be carelesse, shall I be negligent, shall I comply with the world,& the wayes of it? |
A90277 | shall such a man as I fly, give over resisting? |
A90277 | shall they be preserved? |
A90277 | they are affected with the preaching of the word, and believe thereon: make profession, bring forth some fruits: but untill when do they abide? |
A90277 | thinke you that the peace of many in these dayes, will be found to be true peace at last? |
A90277 | though all men should deny thee I will not: shall I doe this evill? |
A90277 | to neglect family, closet duties, to be proud, haughty, ambitious, worldly, covetous, oppressive? |
A90277 | to play at cards, dice, revell, dance? |
A90277 | to this temptation? |
A90277 | vve must not then believe truth its selfe; and hovv vvofull then, must their condition needs be? |
A90277 | what do they say? |
A90277 | why is it that the Allurements of the world, and compliances with men entangle us? |
A90277 | yea didest thou ever in thy life come fairly of without sensible, losse from any temptation almost that thou hadst to deale withall? |
A90293 | 133. e Ad hanc quaestionem an unica via salutis, sit vita passio mors resurrectio& asscensio Iesu Christi? |

A90293 | 17. but did not God end his worke on the seventh day, and did he not then rest from all his works? |
A90293 | 19. Who hath resisted his will? |
A90293 | 2. Who maketh thee differ from another? |
A90293 | 28, 29. what would they have more? |
A90293 | 324. f Quid in eo positum est, quod homo discriminare seipsum dicitur? |
A90293 | 4. Who made thee differ from another, or what hast thou, that thou hast not received? |
A90293 | 46. Who can stay his hand or say unto him, what dost thou? |
A90293 | 7, 8. and shall they be enabled to recriminate, and cast the like aspersion on the God of heaven? |
A90293 | Are these expressions of a morall perswasion only? |
A90293 | Are we better then they? |
A90293 | But did not this counsell of God direct him to choose us rather then others? |
A90293 | But if this be not? |
A90293 | But was not one by some Almightie action, made partaker of reall infused grace, which the other attained not unto? |
A90293 | Consider seriously their denying of that fundamentall Article of Originall sin: Is this but a small escape in Theologie? |
A90293 | Did Christ obtaine this faith for us, of him? |
A90293 | Did then God worke more powerfully in the heart of the one, by his holy Spirit then of the other? |
A90293 | First, they call it a troublesome question: Secondly, they make it a thing disputable, whether there be any such thing, or no? |
A90293 | For, Who is it that can withstand God? |
A90293 | How then came this extreme difference of effects? |
A90293 | I aske whether God thus calleth all men, or onely some? |
A90293 | If onely some, then why they and not others? |
A90293 | Is it out of a speciall intention to have them obedient? |
A90293 | Make you a new heart, and a new spirit, for why will you die, O house of Israel? |
A90293 | No? |
A90293 | No? |
A90293 | No? |
A90293 | Now what peace in the Church, without Truth? |
A90293 | Pray what is obtained by the death of Christ? |
A90293 | Thirdly, Whither they have not hitherto supposed themselves bound to beleeve, that Christ died for their sins and rose for their justification? |
A90293 | Thirdly, and principally, whence had our primitive nature this affections to those things that were forbidden it? |
A90293 | Was there any intention or purpose in God, that one should be changed rather then the other? |
A90293 | Well then? |
A90293 | What arguments doe you thinke were sufficient to perswade a dead man to rise? |
A90293 | Who made the one differ from the other, or what hath he, that he did not receive? |
A90293 | Why then let us here learne some new Divinitie? |
A90293 | Why then the efficacie of the death of Christ depends wholly on us: true? |
A90293 | a powerfull Deitie, whereunto we may repaire, for a power to become the sonnes of God? |
A90293 | and againe the poore sinners, for whom he suffered? |
A90293 | and attaining eternall happinesse? |
A90293 | and if thou hast received, why boastest thou, as if thou hadst not received? |
A90293 | and if thou hast received, why boasteth thou as if thou hast not received? |
A90293 | and which we may refuse to do if we will? |
A90293 | because it is required of us, under the promise of eternall life? |
A90293 | because we had something to commend us more then they? |
A90293 | by which of the ten precepts, is this inclination to evill required? |
A90293 | can he collect his scattered dust, or renew his perished senses? |
A90293 | did God create in Adam, a pronenesse unto evill? |
A90293 | do they not thinke it lawfull to pray, that God would bestow upon them, grace, and glory for Christs sake? |
A90293 | doe they not at this houre, and shall they not to eternitie, feele the waite and burden of their owne sinnes? |
A90293 | doth God affirme here he will doe, what he intends only to perswade us to? |
A90293 | e Dixit Pelagius, quis est mihi Augustinus? |
A90293 | had they a naturall affection, put upon them by God, to that which was forbidden by the law? |
A90293 | had they either grace in this world, or glory in the other, that they should be said to have an interest in the death of our Saviour? |
A90293 | his owne Sonne once? |
A90293 | how came they then to be seduced and perish? |
A90293 | how then? |
A90293 | if all, why are not all converted? |
A90293 | if it be a thing not in our own power? |
A90293 | in what estate, will you have the Idol placed? |
A90293 | is it by the last, thou shalt not covet? |
A90293 | is it in the power of a stony heart to remove it self? |
A90293 | it can not otherwise be? |
A90293 | it is enough, yea, too much for them to repine and say, why hast thou made us thus, who are vessels fitted for wratth? |
A90293 | or by that summe of them all, thou shalt love the Lord thy God, with all thy heart,& c. is this all the happinesse of Paradise? |
A90293 | or can he not produce innumerable things in the world, which now he doth not? |
A90293 | or if they can get a sophisticall elusion for him, is it least by so doing, Christians should the more plainely discerne their heresie? |
A90293 | or not to have created it at all? |
A90293 | or what great aid can he contribute to his own resurrection? |
A90293 | or what hast thou that thou hast not received? |
A90293 | or what hast thou, that thou hast not received? |
A90293 | shall a stony heart be said to have a power to change it selfe into such a heart of flesh as shall cause us to walke in Gods Statutes? |
A90293 | shall we say, that his providence extends it selfe every way, to the utmost of its activitie? |
A90293 | that he would grant faith and repentance, for the merit of his Sonne, to them that are as yet a farre off? |
A90293 | to be turmoyled with a nature swelling with aboundance of vaine desires? |
A90293 | was that a part of his glorious image, in whose likenesse he was framed? |
A90293 | was there any circumstance about it that did not show a God, and his providence? |
A90293 | was there not counsell, in the storehouse of his wisdome, to have created this otherwise? |
A90293 | were this an altogether vaine and foolish prayer? |
A90293 | what an active stone is this in mounting upwards? |
A90293 | what doth it at all differ from that heart of flesh that God promiseth? |
A90293 | what fault is it to be created? |
A90293 | what hand guided that poor vessell from the rocks, and gave it a resting place on the mountains? |
A90293 | what need of Christ himselfe, if our nature be not guilty, depraved, corrupted? |
A90293 | why, what need of the Gospel? |
A53733 | 14 But would not his Obedience hallow, or at least excuse his action? |
A53733 | 9. Who ever doubted of it? |
A53733 | And hath this Gentleman really considered what the meaning of that word Trade is, and what is the concernment of this Nation in it? |
A53733 | And how doth thi ● follow? |
A53733 | And may not this Rule be quickly extended unto Oaths themselves, the bonds and Ligaments of humane Society? |
A53733 | And shall they they be destroyed, if they miss it in some matters of smaller concernment? |
A53733 | And what if others believe that to pursue their successes in Villany and Rebellion is to follow Providence? |
A53733 | And what is it, that we treat about? |
A53733 | And what now if those intended do not believe these things, nor any one of them? |
A53733 | And what quietness, what peace is there like to be in the world, whilst the sword of vengeance must be continually drawn about these things? |
A53733 | And why all this fierceness and severity? |
A53733 | And why may not the same Rule and Order be observed with respect to the circumstances that attend the performance of the duties of instituted Worship? |
A53733 | And will it not be bitterness in the latter end? |
A53733 | And will they justifie all their oppressors? |
A53733 | And would not the Authority of the King warrant his Obedience? |
A53733 | And would these men be willingly thus dealt withall, by those who judge, or may judge them to err? |
A53733 | Are immoralities or vicious debaucheries rather to be tolerated, or exempted from punishment, than such a dissent? |
A53733 | Are there then Reasons: for their observation besides their Injuction, and such as on the account whereof they are injoyned? |
A53733 | Are these their Apprehensions concerning God, sin, themselves and others? |
A53733 | Are these things suited to the principles, Doctrines, practices of the Church of England? |
A53733 | Are these things then so indeed? |
A53733 | Besides who shall judge what is small, or what is great in things of this Nature? |
A53733 | But is it not strange, how any man can assume to himself, and swallow so much confidence as is needful to the mannagement of this charge? |
A53733 | But is their Judgement infallible? |
A53733 | But shall this wrath never be allayed? |
A53733 | But to what purpose is it to contend about these things? |
A53733 | But what if it so fall out? |
A53733 | But what if this also should prove a false and futilous pretence? |
A53733 | But what name shall these new Vertues be called by? |
A53733 | But what then is to be done in this Case? |
A53733 | But what would be the issue of such proceedings? |
A53733 | But who judgeth them to be so guilty of errors? |
A53733 | But why so? |
A53733 | But, as I said, what will be the end of these things, namely of mutual virulent reflections upon one another? |
A53733 | Doth God deal thus in this world, in his Rule over the souls of men? |
A53733 | Doth it thence follow that such persons must needs Rebell and be Seditious and disturb the publick peace, of the Society whereof they are Members? |
A53733 | Doth the Lord Christ require his Disciples to do and observe in the Worship of God what ever he commanded them? |
A53733 | Ecquid meministi? |
A53733 | For to what purpose serve their Understandings, their Judgements, their Wills, if not to guide and determine them in their Actions? |
A53733 | For what security can be had of him, who hath inured himself unto a continual contradiction between his Faith and his practice? |
A53733 | For wherein can this be effected? |
A53733 | Hath he dominion over them to rule them in the things of the Worship of God? |
A53733 | Hath the Magistrate this his Authority in and over Religion and the consciences of men from Jesus Christ? |
A53733 | He asks farther, what doth the Scripture mean when it stiles our Saviour the King of Kings, and maketh Princes his Vicegerents here on earth? |
A53733 | How are they directed to behave themselves, after they have assumed a likeness unto the Most High, and exalted themselves to his Throne? |
A53733 | How if they should be mistaken themselves in their judgement? |
A53733 | I would then a little farther enquire, who shall judge whether the things commanded in Religion and the Worship of God be Idolatrous or Superstitious? |
A53733 | Is it not because of the Authority of God over their minds and Consciences in these things? |
A53733 | Is it not evident to him that hath but half an eye that we are come about again where we were before? |
A53733 | Is it only towards them, who are of the same mind with themselves? |
A53733 | Is it such as to make that to be Vertue which was not Vertue before, or which was Vice, and oblige men in Conscience to practise it as Vertue? |
A53733 | Is it to be so born as to practise and observe the things so enjoyned though Superstitious and Idolatrous? |
A53733 | Is it to judge of their Actions as done, whether they be good or evil? |
A53733 | Is the Authority of Christ the formal Reason making Obedience necessary to his Commands and Precepts? |
A53733 | Is the Lord Christ the Lord of the Souls and Consciences of men? |
A53733 | Is this Spirit from above? |
A53733 | Is this the Spirit wherewith the Children of the Church are acted? |
A53733 | Is this the way to restore peace, quietness and satisfaction to the minds of men? |
A53733 | Is this to act like God, whose power and authority they have assumed, or like to his greatest Adversary? |
A53733 | Is this, thought I, the Spirit of the men with whom the Non- Conformists do contend, and upon whose Instance alone they suffer? |
A53733 | Might Christ in his own Person administer the Holy Things of the Church of God? |
A53733 | Now who shall fix bounds to what they will judge to fall under one or other of these limitations? |
A53733 | Once more; what name of sin or wickedness will they find to affix to these errors? |
A53733 | Or must Ephraim now answer for the sin, and not be only that imposed the command? |
A53733 | Quanta isthaec Hominum summa est? |

A53733 | Some have denyed him any concern herein; our Author is none of them? |
A53733 | Suppose they be prevailed with, to run the hazzard and adventure of such an undertaking; what is it that they are thereon perswaded unto? |
A53733 | What Ladders have men to climb personally into Heaven? |
A53733 | What are the Affairs of Religion here intended, all or some? |
A53733 | What are the concerns of publick good therein? |
A53733 | What can be more directly forbidden, than the making or use ● ● g of graven Images, in or about Religious Worship? |
A53733 | What hurt would it be to leave them so? |
A53733 | What if some of them, are ridiculously framed into Articles of faith, from the supposed practices of some individual Persons? |
A53733 | What if the things condemned as fulsome Metaphors prove to be Scriptural expressions of Gospel Mysteries? |
A53733 | What if they do openly disavow every one of them, as for ought I ever heard or know they do, and as I do my self? |
A53733 | What is it, that a little Truce and Peace is desired unto, and pleaded for? |
A53733 | What place of Scripture in the Old or New Testament, which of the ancient Fathers of the Church, do speak at this rate? |
A53733 | What thinks he of the Confessions of Ezra, of Daniel and others in the name of the whole people of God? |
A53733 | Wherefore then are these weak attempts made to confirm and prove what is not? |
A53733 | Whether they cross directly the Interest of the Gospel? |
A53733 | Who is it that promiseth these things? |
A53733 | Who would be gainers by it? |
A53733 | Whom will such men fulfill the commands of patience, forbearance, waiting, meekness, condescension, that the Gospel abounds with, towards? |
A53733 | Will this way of proceeding compose and satisfie the minds of men? |
A53733 | and how if sundry things so odiously here expressed, be proved to have been sober Truths declared in words of Wisdom and Sobriety? |
A53733 | and who shall attend them in their attempt? |
A53733 | he answers, It is to be born: True, but how? |
A53733 | how if he be not able to prove any of them by any considerable avowed instance? |
A53733 | how will he confirm and vindicate it? |
A53733 | no more then Christ hath his Authority from the Magistrate; for he holds it by the Law of Nature antecedent to the promise and coming of Christ? |
A53733 | or did any one ever think, that they had a difficult case of Conscience to resolve in that matter? |
A53733 | or is not this that, which is set out in the Fable of Phaeton, that he, who takes the Chariot of the Sun, will cast the whole world into a combustion? |
A53733 | that there is no work at all of God upon the hearts of Sinners, but that which is purely moral, and perswasive by the word? |
A53733 | that what is asserted by some concerning the Efficacy of the Grace of the Spirit, and concerning his gifts, is no more but a buzz and a noise? |
A53733 | where lyes the difficulty? |
A53733 | why? |
A53719 | Alas, will it say, how little have I been with Christ this day? |
A53719 | And if ye have not been faithful in that which is anothert Mans, who shall give you that which is your own? |
A53719 | And if you offer the blind for Sacrifice is it not evil? |
A53719 | And shall we suppose that those with whom it is so, are Spiritually minded? |
A53719 | And shall we think to offer that Time unto God, wherein we are unmeet to appear before an earthly Ruler? |
A53719 | And what grounds have you to judge that you are so, if the current of your thoughts lye in direct contrariety unto the present Calls of God? |
A53719 | Are they called to an Attendance on seasons of Religious Duties? |
A53719 | Are they not more wonted to their seasons, than holy Thoughts are? |
A53719 | Are they our Treasure, our Portion, our Reward, in comparison whereof all other things are but loss and dung? |
A53719 | Are you not sometimes a Terrour unto yourselves? |
A53719 | Are you ready on all occasions to entertain such Thoughts, and to be conversant with them, as opportunity doth offer it self? |
A53719 | Be it so that there may be some Evils found under the Exercise of the Gift of Prayer, what remedy for them may be proposed? |
A53719 | But are you Spiritually minded? |
A53719 | But is there a God indeed? |
A53719 | But what if any of us should be mistaken in our Rule and Application of it unto our Conditions? |
A53719 | Can we think that Life and Peace do inhabit that Soul, wherein Anger, Wrath, Envy, Excess in Love unto earthly things, no dwell? |
A53719 | Can you attain a better frame? |
A53719 | Do men gather Figs from Thorns, or Grapes from Thistles? |
A53719 | Do they come unto God as the Eternal Fountain of Living Waters? |
A53719 | Do they fight uncertainly with these things as men beating the Air? |
A53719 | Do you come to me in your distress, saith Jepthe, when in the time of your Peace you drove me from you? |
A53719 | Do you labour to have in a readiness what is useful for you with respect unto Temptations and Duties? |
A53719 | Do you truely know, either how to live, or how to die? |
A53719 | Doth he not also signally declare the uncertainty and instability of Earthly Enjoyments, from Life it self to a Shoo- latchet? |
A53719 | Doth not God proclaime herein, that the things of this World are not to be valued or esteemed? |
A53719 | For from his first Temptation by way of an ensnaring Question, Yea, and hath God said it, ye shall not eat of every Tree of the Garden? |
A53719 | Hast thou not heard that the Everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the Ends of the Earth fainteth not, neither is weary? |
A53719 | Hast thou not known, hast thou not heard, that the Everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the Earth fainteth not, neither is weary? |
A53719 | Hast thou not known? |
A53719 | How can persons pretend to be Spiritually minded, the current of whose Thoughts lies in direct contrariety unto the mind of God? |
A53719 | How do you know that there is a God? |
A53719 | How few are they who value that Heavenly State which we have treated of; or do understand how any blessedness can consist in the enjoyment of it? |
A53719 | How foolish was I, to be wanting to such or such an Opportunity? |
A53719 | How much of this time might, nay ought to be redeemed for holy Meditations? |
A53719 | How much time hath passed me without a thought of him? |
A53719 | How were all his Affections alwayes in Perfection of Order under the Conduct of the Spirit of his Mind? |
A53719 | I am asham''d of my self, weary of my self, loath my self, who shall deliver me from this Body of Death? |
A53719 | If therefore you have not been faithful in the unrighteous Mammon, Who will commit to your trust the true Riches? |
A53719 | In how many afflictions, dangers, troubles hath he been a present help and relief? |
A53719 | Is God in Christ, and the things of the Gospel, the ordinary Retreat of your Souls? |
A53719 | Is it not better to have such a mind in us, than to enjoy all the Peace and security that the world can afford? |
A53719 | Is it that men should Renounce their use of it, and betake themselves unto the Reading of Prayers only? |
A53719 | Is not all wherein you have now to do with God, either Form, Custom, and Selfishness, or attended with Trouble, Disquietment, and Fears? |
A53719 | Is there a God besides me? |
A53719 | Is there a State of the Poor that requires their Liberality and Bounty? |
A53719 | Is there any thing that you would more desire, if you are Believers? |
A53719 | It is because they are such things as we have no great concernment in? |
A53719 | It may be enquired what is requisite thereunto? |
A53719 | It may be enquired, what is the Subjective Glory, or what Change is to be wrought in our selves that we may enjoy this Glory? |
A53719 | It will be said, Do not all men, the best of men, perform all Spiritual Duties out of a Conviction of their Necessity? |
A53719 | Let all the Nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this, and shew us former things? |
A53719 | My tears have been my Meat day and night, while they continually say unto me, Where is thy God? |
A53719 | O wretched man that I am, who shall deliver me from this body of death? |
A53719 | Or do they come unto his VVorship without any Design as unto a dry and empty shew? |
A53719 | Or it is because the faculties and Powers of our Souls were not originally suited unto the contemplation of them, and delight in them? |
A53719 | Or what profit should we have if we Pray unto him? |
A53719 | Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompenced to him again? |
A53719 | So he did with our Saviour himself, If thou be the Son of God: Is there a God? |
A53719 | Some I fear if they did but consider it, would be apt to say, This is an hard saying, who can bear it? |
A53719 | Take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? |
A53719 | That they meditate on the Calls of God, and thence make themselves ready to part with all at his time and pleasure? |
A53719 | The Mind will be apt of it self to start aside from Duties? |
A53719 | The Question is, how doth this appear? |
A53719 | They are ready to say, Are not Abana and Pharpar Rivers of Damascus better than all the Waters of Israel? |
A53719 | This most men it may be, suppose they need not much Exhortation unto; for none ever doubted of it; who doth not grant it on all occasions? |
A53719 | To what End, unto what Purpose should they desire such a participation of him, to be so filled with him? |
A53719 | To what end is all this Care and Councel? |
A53719 | VVhat do men come to hear the VVord of God for? |
A53719 | VVhat do they expect to receive from him? |
A53719 | What Pitty and Compassion had he for the Souls of men, yea for whole humane Kind, in all their Sufferings, Pains, and Distresses? |
A53719 | What are your thoughts when you are most awake, when you are most your selves? |
A53719 | What can any object unto the Truth of these things, or the Necessity of this Duty? |
A53719 | What do they pray for? |
A53719 | What evidence then can they have that they are Spiritually minded, that their principal Interest lyes in things above? |
A53719 | What have all your Lovers done for you, that you have entertained in the room of God in Christ, and Spiritual things? |
A53719 | What if a man should judge that now it is such an hour, and that the Power of Darkness is put forth therein? |
A53719 | What is it then that must give our Nature this subjective Perfection? |
A53719 | What is the matter with men that they are so stupid? |
A53719 | What meaneth this rising so early, and going to Bed late, eating the Bread of Carefulness? |

A53715 | 8? |
A53715 | A new Sin may be permitted, as well as a new Affliction sent to bring an Old sin to remembrance? |
A53715 | And can I keep my self out of the Dust? |
A53715 | And if the Case be so sad with them who do labour and strive, and yet enter not into the Kingdom; what is their Condition who despise all this? |
A53715 | And in this case of indwelling Sin, and the power of it, what Frame doth he express himself to be in? |
A53715 | And in what state doth the Prophet Habakkuk affirm himself to be cast, upon the apprehension of the Majesty of God? |
A53715 | And our Saviour tells us what is to be done in this case; sayes he, Do men gather Grapes from Thorns? |
A53715 | And wherein did his folly appear? |
A53715 | Are the the things of the Soul of less importance? |
A53715 | Are they not still in the Gall of bitterness? |
A53715 | As to its Rise, it is built purely upon the Testimony of him whom we have not seen; as the Apostle speaks, How can ye love him whom you have not seen? |
A53715 | But how shall a man know whether there be any thing of Gods chastening hand, in his being left to the disquietment of his distemper? |
A53715 | But how? |
A53715 | But suppose a Thorn be well pruned and cut, and have pains taken with him? |
A53715 | But thou wilt say, what ground have I to build such an Expectation upon; so that I may expect not to be deceived? |
A53715 | But why had they not peace? |
A53715 | But you will say, Is not this to perswade men to unbelief? |
A53715 | But you will say, We are where we were; when God syeaks it, we must receive it; that is true, but how shall we know when he speaks? |
A53715 | C ● nst thou look without terrour into the Abyss of Eternity? |
A53715 | Can a sadder thing befall thee? |
A53715 | Can sin be killed without an interest in the Death of Christ, or Mortified without the Spirit? |
A53715 | Canst thou complain if it be no otherwise with thee than it was with Heman, that eminent servant of God? |
A53715 | Clearly, perfectly? |
A53715 | Did the sufferings and Temptations of Christ adde to his ability and power? |
A53715 | Do they find a conquest over it? |
A53715 | Doe I account Communion with him of so little value, that for this vile Lusts sake I have scarce left him any room in my Heart? |
A53715 | Doe I thus requite the Lord? |
A53715 | Does he bid them go and mortifie their pride, wrath, malice, cruelty, and the like? |
A53715 | Dost thou think he will ease thee of that which perplexeth Thee, that thou mayst be at liberty to that which no less grieves Him? |
A53715 | God forbid, how shall we that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? |
A53715 | Hadst thou been negligent in Duties? |
A53715 | Hast thou not found thy self engaged in such Wayes, Societies, Companies, and that with delight, as God abhorres? |
A53715 | Hast thou received any eminent Mercy, Protection, Deliverance, which thou diddest not improve in a due Manner, nor wast thankfull for? |
A53715 | Have I defiled the Heart that Christ dyed to wash; that the Blessed Spirit hath chosen to dwell in? |
A53715 | Have I obtained a view of Gods Fatherly Countenance, that I might behold his face, and provoke him to his face? |
A53715 | How doth he doe it? |
A53715 | How doth the Spirit mortifie Sin? |
A53715 | How immense is he in his Nature? |
A53715 | How is that? |
A53715 | How little a portion is it? |
A53715 | How often doth he complain that his bones were broken, his Soul disquieted, his wounds grievous on this account? |
A53715 | How shall I escape, if I neglect so great Salvation? |
A53715 | How shall I hold up my head with any boldness before him? |
A53715 | How shall he then mortifie Sin, that hath not the Spirit? |
A53715 | How shall we do it, who( as he afterwards describes it,) have received Grace from Christ to the contrary? |
A53715 | I will leave them, hide my Face, and what will become of their peace and strength? |
A53715 | If this be the work of the Spirit alone, how is it, that we are exhorted to it? |
A53715 | If we have not some strength to walk with him? |
A53715 | In the mean time, what shall I say to the Lord? |
A53715 | Is it not a little one? |
A53715 | Is it not from the Spirit? |
A53715 | Is it nothing that he should punish, ruine, and undoe others for thy sake? |
A53715 | Is not our understanding brutish in the Contemplation of such things? |
A53715 | Is not this to put men to make Brick, if not without straw,( which is worse,) without strength? |
A53715 | Is their Condition changed, though they attain a Relinquishment of it? |
A53715 | Is their sin at all mortified hereby? |
A53715 | Is this the Return I make to the Father for his Love, to the Son for his Blood, to the Holy Ghost for his Grace? |
A53715 | Know you not that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his Death? |
A53715 | Now how is he attained? |
A53715 | Or Vncleanness to defile thy Heart, with vain, and foolish, and wicked Imaginations, for many dayes? |
A53715 | Or strength whilest he smites? |
A53715 | Ought not all our expectations to this purpose to be on Christ alone? |
A53715 | Say to thy Soul; What have I done? |
A53715 | Shall I daily grieve that Spirit whereby I am sealed to the day of Redemption? |
A53715 | Shall I endeavour to disappoint the End of the Death of Christ? |
A53715 | Shall they cease striving against sin, live dissolutely, give their Lusts their swinge, and be as bad as the worst of men? |
A53715 | Sin will grow a light thing to thee; thou wilt pass by it as a thing of nought; This it will grow to, and what will be the End of such a Condition? |
A53715 | Sin, saith he, is crucified; it is fastned to the Cross; to what End? |
A53715 | So did Joseph, How shall I doe this great evil( saith he) and sin against the Lord, my good and gracious God? |
A53715 | They have followed after Mortification, but they have not Attained to it; Wherefore? |
A53715 | They that are Christ''s have crucified the flesh, with the affections and lusts: But how? |
A53715 | Thou settest thy self with all diligence and earnestness to mortifie such a Lust or Sin; what is the Reason of it? |
A53715 | Was it not a Correction to Peters vain Confidence, that he was left to deny his Master? |
A53715 | Was my Soul washed, that room might be made for new Defilements? |
A53715 | We have in Baptisme an Evidence of our Implantation into Christ; we are baptized into him; But what of him are we baptized into an Interest in? |
A53715 | We have( I say) words and notions about these things, but as to the things themselves, what do we know? |
A53715 | What Promise hath any unregenerate man to countenance him in this work? |
A53715 | What assistance for the performance of it? |
A53715 | What can I say to the dear Lord Jesus? |
A53715 | What do we comprehend of them? |
A53715 | What do ● t thou know of God? |
A53715 | What doth Peter direct them to? |
A53715 | What good will our Lives do us, if we see not the face of God sometimes in peace? |
A53715 | What is his Name, and what is his Sons Name if thou canst tell? |
A53715 | What is to be expected from such an Heart? |
A53715 | What peace I pray is there to a Soul while God hides himself? |
A53715 | What shall we say then? |
A53715 | Whence is the power, life and vigour of Prayer? |
A53715 | Whence its Efficacy to prevail with God? |
A53715 | Whence then do we expect the Spirit? |
A53715 | Who can declare the Generation of the Son, the procession of the Spirit, or the difference of the one from the other? |
A53715 | Who hath ascended up into Heaven, or descended? |
A53715 | Who hath bound the Waters in a Garment? |
A53715 | Who hath established the Ends of the Earth? |
A53715 | Who hath gathered the Wind in his fists? |
A53715 | Who hath promised him to us, having procured him for us? |
A53715 | Who is it that hath walked up to the Knowledge that he hath had of the Perfections, Excellencies, and Will of God? |
A53715 | Who may assume it to himself? |
A53715 | Who should mortifie? |
A53715 | Whom speaks he to? |
A53715 | Why sayest thou O my soul my way is hid from the Lord and my Judgment is passed over from my God? |
A53715 | Why, because in their Address to God they flattered him: But how doth that appear? |
A53715 | Yea, but what if these are in us, and do abound, may not the other abound also? |
A53715 | You will say, What then would you have unregenerate men, that are convinced of the Evil of sin do? |
A53715 | You will say, what are these dangerous Marks and symptoms, the desperate Attendances of an indwelling Lust that you intend? |
A53715 | and cryed out what shall we doe? |
A53715 | and is not the Gospel End of their Convictions lost thereby? |
A53715 | and shall we daily grieve Him? |
A53715 | and wilt thou venture any more to the brink of Hardness? |
A53715 | but who shall have the comfort of this Assertion? |
A53715 | from whom do we look for him? |
A53715 | hadst thou lived inordinately to thy self? |
A53715 | is there the guilt of any great sin lying upon thee unrepented of? |
A53715 | is this all? |
A53715 | or hast been exercised with any Affliction, without labouring for the appointed End of it? |
A53715 | or hast thou been wanting to the Opportunities of glorifying God in thy Generation, which in his good Providence he had graciously afforded unto thee? |
A53715 | or hast thou conformed thy self unto the World and the men of it, through the abounding of Temptations in the dayes wherein thou livest? |
A53715 | shall we continue in Sin that Grace may abound? |
A53715 | what Love, what Mercy, what Blood, what Grace have I despised and trampled on? |
A53715 | what doest thou expostulate with thy self? |
A53715 | what extremity of sufferings did they put themselves upon? |
A53715 | what oft- times are they directed unto, when their Consciences are galled by Sin, and Disquietment from the Lord hath laid hold upon them? |
A53715 | what violence did they offer to Nature? |
A53715 | whence is that? |
A53715 | wilt thou yet weary him, and make him to serve with thy Corruptions? |
A53712 | 1. Who hath believed our report? |
A53712 | 7. and yet are not able to accomplish their designs: What torture do such poor creatures live in? |
A53712 | 9, 10. Who can know the heart? |
A53712 | A Sacrifice without an heart, without salt, without fire, of what value is it? |
A53712 | A deceiving and a deceived heart, who can deal with it? |
A53712 | Adoption is an especial fruit of it, and how great a priviledge is this? |
A53712 | And can we but be astonished at the power of that principle from whence it is, that they run headlong to their own destruction? |
A53712 | And do now the generality of Professors abide in this frame? |
A53712 | And doth this frame still abide upon them? |
A53712 | And how doth he exercise this merciful ability towards us? |
A53712 | And how little a portion of its deceitfulness is it that we have declared? |
A53712 | And what Promises are these? |
A53712 | And what can possible be more effectual for its ruine and destruction? |
A53712 | And what is the issue? |
A53712 | And what sayes he hereof? |
A53712 | And where doth this treasure lye? |
A53712 | Are we better than Lot, whose Righteous Soul was vexed with the evil deeds of ungodly men, and is thereof commended by the Holy Ghost? |
A53712 | Are we better than Noah, who had that testimony from God, that he was a perfect man in his Generation, and walked with God? |
A53712 | Are we more holy, wise, and watchful than David, who obtained this testimony, that he was a man after Gods own heart? |
A53712 | At least do they not prefer their ease, credit, safety, secular advantages before these things? |
A53712 | Be sober, be vigilant; and why so? |
A53712 | But how far are they appointed thus to carry them on, thus to build them up? |
A53712 | But is their course stopped, are their Principles altered? |
A53712 | But not to mention such open Apostates any farther, whose Hypocrisie the Lord Jesus Christ will ● ● ortly judge; how is it with the best? |
A53712 | But to what end and purpose doth he write these things to them, What do they teach, what do they tend unto? |
A53712 | But what and if oppositions and temptations do lie in the way, Satan and his instruments working with great subtilty and deceit? |
A53712 | But what is the end of these things? |
A53712 | But what need we look back or search for Instances to confirm the truth of this Observation? |
A53712 | But whence is it that they so do? |
A53712 | But why then will he have any thing more to do with them? |
A53712 | Can any one traverse the various mutability of his affections? |
A53712 | Did they not call the Sabbath their delight, and was not the approach of it a real joy unto their Souls? |
A53712 | Did they not contend earnestly for the Truth once delivered to the Saints, and every parcel of it? |
A53712 | Did they not long after the converse and communion of Saints? |
A53712 | Did we ever lose any thing by drawing nigh unto him? |
A53712 | Do the secret springs of acting and refusing in the soul, lie before the eyes of any man? |
A53712 | Do they find the same sweetness and relish in them as they have done of old? |
A53712 | Do you thus requite the Lord, O foolish people and unwise? |
A53712 | Doth any one know what will be the motions of the mind or will, in such and such conjunctions of things? |
A53712 | Doth he by any means take away their lives? |
A53712 | Doth he send his Angel to cut them off, like the Army of Senacherib afterwards? |
A53712 | Doth it set upon the soul? |
A53712 | Doth the Law of the mind command any thing as duty? |
A53712 | Doth this work the effect? |
A53712 | Enquire then how it is with your souls, what do you find of this Law, what experience have you of its power and efficacy? |
A53712 | For what are the vain transitory pleasures of sin, in comparison of the exceeding recompence of reward which is proposed unto us? |
A53712 | Hast thou any spiritual duty to perform, and dost thou design the attaining of any communion with God? |
A53712 | Hath any one the perfect measure of his own light and darkness? |
A53712 | Hath he been a Wilderness unto us, or a Land of Darkness? |
A53712 | Hath he not bid us welcome at our coming? |
A53712 | Hath he not made thee, and established thee? |
A53712 | Hath it bounds fixed to its work? |
A53712 | Hath not the World, and self utterly ruined their Profession? |
A53712 | Have we not received from him more than heart can conceive, or tongue express? |
A53712 | He can knock them on the head, or break out their teeth, or chain up their wrath, and who can oppose him? |
A53712 | He is continually saying to us, Why will you die? |
A53712 | Here is the whole design and use of the Gospel briefly expressed, These things, saith he, I write unto you; what things were these? |
A53712 | How can I do this great wickedness and sin against God? |
A53712 | How can I do this great wickedness and sin against God? |
A53712 | How precious hath the Word been to them formerly? |
A53712 | How sensible of sin will they be for a season? |
A53712 | How will they cordially and heartily resolve against it? |
A53712 | How will they then mourn and weep under a sense of the guilt of it? |
A53712 | In supposition of sin, that we have sinned, is there no relief provided for our souls and consciences in the Gospel? |
A53712 | Is Christ crucified for sin, and shall not our hearts be crucified with him unto sin? |
A53712 | Is it not a little one? |
A53712 | Is it not strange that a man should not do that which he chuseth, willeth, liketh, delighteth in? |
A53712 | Is not he the Fountain and Spring of all our mercies, of all our desirable things? |
A53712 | Is not he thy Father that bought thee? |
A53712 | Is the Understanding or the Mind to be applyed unto any thing? |
A53712 | Is the Will to be engaged, there it is also in spiritual deadness, stubborness, and the roots of obstinacy? |
A53712 | Is their Zeal for God as warm, living, vigorous, effectual, solicitous, as it was in their first giving themselves unto God? |
A53712 | Is there any thing more required to enable us unto that which is good? |
A53712 | Is there the same conscientious tenderness of sinning abiding in many as was in dayes of old? |
A53712 | Is this a requital for Eternal Love, and all the fruits of it? |
A53712 | It is weary before it begins, and says, when will the work be over? |
A53712 | May it not be said, Gray hairs are here and there upon them, and they perceive it not? |
A53712 | May not the same duty performed in publick, or in the Family suffice? |
A53712 | Nay, hath not therein lyen all the rest and peace which we have obtained? |
A53712 | Now is there no difficulty to get the mind into such a frame, as to lay out it self to the utmost in this work? |
A53712 | Now what can be worse than this Law of sin? |
A53712 | Now what is it to be tempted? |
A53712 | Now what is, or what are these ends? |
A53712 | Or better than Hezekiah, who appealed to God himself, that he had served him uprightly with a perfect heart? |
A53712 | Or rather, is there not a common, slight, selfish frame of spirit in the room of it come upon most Professors? |
A53712 | Rivers of water run down our eyes because men keep not thy Law? |
A53712 | Secondly, Is mens delight in the Ordinances& Worship of God the same as in former days? |
A53712 | Shall we give entertainment unto that, or hearken unto its dalliances, which wounded, which pierced, which slew our dear Lord Jesus? |
A53712 | Such a suiting of objects, such a pretension of reasonings, such an appearance of things desirable? |
A53712 | The same love to the brethren? |
A53712 | They answer by Peter, Lord, to whom shall we go, thou hast the words of eternal life? |
A53712 | This is the humble frame of soul ▪ and how is this obtained? |
A53712 | This way, this course of walking, doth well enough with others, why may it not do so with us also? |
A53712 | To draw out, and make use of its stores and furniture of promises and experiences? |
A53712 | Upon the urgency of his great temptation, he recoils immediately into this frame of spirit; How, saith he, can I do this thing, and sin against God? |
A53712 | Was it not of old a burthen to their spirits to hear the Name, and wayes, and Worship of God blasphemed and profaned? |
A53712 | Was then that which is good( that is, the Law) made death unto me? |
A53712 | Were not their souls solicitous about the Interest of Christ in the World, like Eli''s about the Ark? |
A53712 | Wha ● need we be all out so strict in the observation of the Sabbath? |
A53712 | What ails then our foolish and wretched hearts, to harbour such a cursed secret dislike of him and his ways? |
A53712 | What course doth God now take to obviate their conceived sin? |
A53712 | What have we found in God in any of our approaches or addresses unto him, that it should be thus with us? |
A53712 | What iniquity have we found in him? |
A53712 | What is the reason of this? |
A53712 | What joy and delight have they had in attendance thereon? |
A53712 | What need this distinction in hearing? |
A53712 | What need we hear so often? |
A53712 | What now is the genuine tendency of this doctrine, of this discovery of grace, and what ought we to use it and improve it unto? |
A53712 | What now shall hinder them from doing what ever they have imagined to do? |
A53712 | What profit is it, say they, if we slay our Brother and conceal his blood? |
A53712 | What shall we say then, shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? |
A53712 | What spiritual wisdom do you stand in need of? |
A53712 | What strivings, struglings, and pleadings are there in the heart about them, especially against the spirituality of them? |
A53712 | What supplies of Grace, what assistance of the Holy Ghost will be hence also discovered? |
A53712 | What then shall be done in this case? |
A53712 | What use then ought we to make of this contemplation of the excellent unspeakable love of God? |
A53712 | Whence is it that men follow and pursue the world with so much greediness, that they neglect Heaven, and life, and immorrality for it every day? |
A53712 | Whence is it that some pursue their sensuality with delight, they will drink, and revel, and have their sports, let others say what they please? |
A53712 | Whence then is it that they do not all flourish and thrive accordingly? |
A53712 | Who can mention the treacheries and deceits that lie in the heart of man? |
A53712 | Why doth it oppose duty, so that the good we would do, we do not, either as to matter or manner? |
A53712 | Why doth it render the soul carnal, indisposed, unbelieving, unspiritual, weary, wandring? |
A53712 | Would you live as though there were no need of the Gospel? |
A53712 | Yea, are not men ready to say with them of old, What a weariness is it? |
A53712 | Yea, are not some come partly on one pretense, partly on another, to an open enmity unto, and hatred of the wayes of God? |
A53712 | Yea, do not many despise all these things, and look upon their own former Zeal, as folly? |
A53712 | You will say then, what shall we do, or how shall we observe this duty? |
A53712 | and are they not regardless of the things wherein they have formerly declared a singular concernment? |
A53712 | and could they not undergo manifold perils for the attainment of it? |
A53712 | are not almost all men grown cold and slack as to these things? |
A53712 | are there not decays and declensions to be found amongst them? |
A53712 | are they not grown weary, selfish in their Religion, and so things be indifferent well at home, scarce care how thy go abroad in the world? |
A53712 | are they not less concerned in them than formerly? |
A53712 | as though pardon of sin were to no purpose? |
A53712 | doth he bring a flood upon them to destroy them, as in the old world sometime before? |
A53712 | doth it carry them so far, and then leave them? |
A53712 | doth it severely rise up against any thing that is evil? |
A53712 | for the love and care of a Father, of a Redeemer, that we have been made partakers of? |
A53712 | have they grown, and made improvement in it? |
A53712 | how is this preserved? |
A53712 | how should we loath all its proposals, and say unto them, Get ye hence as an abominable thing? |
A53712 | or is there not a coldness and indifferency grown upon the spirits of many in this thing? |
A53712 | the same exact performance of private duties? |
A53712 | the same humility of mind and spirit? |
A53712 | the same readiness for the Cross? |
A53712 | the same self- denial? |
A53712 | to be clear, steady, and constant in its duty? |
A53712 | what humiliation, what self- abasement, what intensness in prayer, what diligence, what watchfulness doth this call for at your hands? |
A53712 | when God judged them for their sins and wantonness? |
A53712 | whose Habitation would not be ruined? |
A53712 | whose blood almost would not be shed, if wicked Men had power to perpetrate all their conceived sin? |
A53712 | why will you wither and decay? |
A53708 | 16, 17, 18. but how? |
A53708 | 2. Who can declare what a glory it will be in us to behold this Glory of Christ? |
A53708 | ALL Unbelievers do in their Heart call Christ Ichabod; Where is the Glory? |
A53708 | AND may we not a little examine our selves by these things? |
A53708 | All men indeed think themselves fit enough for Glory( what should hinder them?) |
A53708 | An account why you do all or any of these things? |
A53708 | And how excellent then is that glory of Christ it self? |
A53708 | And if it were so in the Type, what is it in the Truth, Substance and Reality of it? |
A53708 | And is it not our Duty to live in a continual desire of that which he prayed so earnestly that we might attain? |
A53708 | And the Psalmist, How long Lord wilt thou hide thy self for ever? |
A53708 | And we may enquire, what was this Glory of Christ, which they so saw, and by what means they obtained a prospect of it? |
A53708 | And what are they, any, or all of them, in themselves, or unto us, considering our Condition, and the end for which we were made? |
A53708 | And what doth he so desire? |
A53708 | And what is the Effect of it upon those blessed Souls? |
A53708 | And what shall we fear in the Will of Christ as unto this end? |
A53708 | And would we have our souls recovered from these dangerous diseases? |
A53708 | Are not these the things which all the World of Jews and Gentiles stumbled and took Offence at? |
A53708 | Are our Minds every day conversant with Thoughts hereof? |
A53708 | Are we bowed down under the Oppression of any Spiritual Adversary? |
A53708 | Are we or any of us burdened with a Sense of Sin? |
A53708 | Are we perplexed with Temptations? |
A53708 | Are we strangers unto the heavenly visits of consolation and joys, those visitations of God whereby he preserves our souls? |
A53708 | BUT the Enquiry is as before; How shall we have a view of this Love, of God as Love? |
A53708 | But as Job speaks, Where shall this Wisdom be found, and what is the place of understanding? |
A53708 | But he who hath obtained a View of the Glory of Christ, will in the midst of them all say, Whom have I in Heaven but thee? |
A53708 | But how incomparable with respect hereunto is that Condescention of Christ, whereof we have given an Account? |
A53708 | But how is it possible that a man should attain such an Inclination unto, such a Readiness for such a vehement desire of a Dissolution? |
A53708 | But the Question is, How me may attain it? |
A53708 | But the enquiry is, in what way, or by what means, we may obtain the supplies and communications of him unto this end? |
A53708 | But this seems somewhat strange unto Reason; where is the Justice, where is the Equity, that the just should suffer for the unjust? |
A53708 | But what can we see herein? |
A53708 | By what way or means shall we behold the Glory of it? |
A53708 | Can we by searching, find out God? |
A53708 | Can we find out the Almighty to perfection? |
A53708 | Can you give a reason of this hope that is in you? |
A53708 | Commonly they issue in a groan or a sigh; Oh when shall we come unto him? |
A53708 | DO any of us find decays in Grace prevailing in us; deadness, coldness, lukewarmness, a kind of Spiritual Stupidity and senseless coming upon us? |
A53708 | Do we esteem this pressing towards the perfect view of the Glory of Christ to be our Duty, and do we abide in the performance of it? |
A53708 | Do we expect, do we desire the same State of Blessedness? |
A53708 | Do we find an unreadiness unto the exercise of Grace in its proper season, and the vigorous actings of it in Duties of Communion with God? |
A53708 | Do we find our selves lifeless in the spiritual duties of Religion? |
A53708 | Do we look upon it, as that which is without us and above us, as that which we shall have time enough to consider when we come to Heaven? |
A53708 | Do we on any of these accounts walk in Darkness and have no Light? |
A53708 | Do we see him as the Image of the invisible God, representing him, his Nature, Properties, and Will unto us? |
A53708 | Do we see the Father in him, or by seeing of him? |
A53708 | Do we seldom enjoy a sense of the shedding abroad of his love in our hearts by the holy Ghost? |
A53708 | Do we sufficiently consider, that the immediate Vision of this Glory in Heaven will be our everlasting Blessedness? |
A53708 | Doth he not know what is best for us, and what conduceth most unto his own Glory? |
A53708 | Doth it not change them into the same Image, or make them like unto Christ? |
A53708 | Doth it not fill and satiate them with Joy, Rest, Delight, Complacency and ineffable Satisfaction? |
A53708 | Doth not he alone do so? |
A53708 | Doth the imperfect View which we have of it here, encrease our Desires after the perfect Soght of it above? |
A53708 | Examine your selves whether you be in the Faith: prove your own selves: know you not your own selves that Christ is in you, except you be reprobates? |
A53708 | For if one Man sin against another, the Judge shall judge herein; but if a Man sin against the Lord, who shall entreat for him? |
A53708 | For what are all the things of this Life, what is the good or evil of them, in comparison of an Interest in this transcendent Glory? |
A53708 | For what are the things wherein we are to deny our selves, or forgo what we pretend to have a Right unto? |
A53708 | For what should beget such a Desire in them? |
A53708 | For who can declare this glory of Christ? |
A53708 | For who in the Heavens can be compared unto the Lord? |
A53708 | HOW do Men for the most part exercise their Minds? |
A53708 | HOW glorious then is the Condescention of the Son of God in his Susception, of the Office of Mediation? |
A53708 | HOW is it like to be after the few moments, which under the pangs of Death we have to continue in this World? |
A53708 | Hath not God made foolish the Wisdom of this World? |
A53708 | He asketh that Question concerning his Church, What will ye see in the Shulamite? |
A53708 | How are the Souls of Believers ravished with the views of them? |
A53708 | How blind herein was the best Philosopher in comparison of the meanest of the Apostles, yea, of him who is least in the Kingdom of Heaven? |
A53708 | How do we behold it? |
A53708 | How imperfect are our Conceptions of him? |
A53708 | How much more abominable is the folly of men, who would represent the Lord Christ in his present Glory by Pictures and Images of him? |
A53708 | How much more should we prize that view of it, which we may have with open face, tho''yet as in a glass? |
A53708 | How then shall we entertain an Apprehension of being carried and exalted above them all? |
A53708 | How unsearchable are his Judgments, and his Ways past finding out? |
A53708 | How weak are our Minds in their Management? |
A53708 | I speak of them, whose minds are better disposed towards heavenly things; and unto them I say, Wherefore do you love Jesus Christ? |
A53708 | IS Christ then thus glorious in our Eyes? |
A53708 | IT may then be said, what did the Lord Christ in this Condescention, with respect unto his Divine Nature? |
A53708 | IT was a priviledge( who would not have longed to partake of it?) |
A53708 | If thou sinnest, what dost thou against him? |
A53708 | In them are represented unto us the desirable beauties and glories of Christ; how precious, how amiable is he as represented in them? |
A53708 | Is it an Annihilation that lies at the door; is Death the Destruction of our whole Being, so as that after it we shall be no more? |
A53708 | Is it because there is no God in Israel that these Applications are made unto the Idol of Ekron? |
A53708 | Is it not he, who in this World was poor, despised, persecuted and slain, all for our Sakes? |
A53708 | Is it not herein, that they behold and see the Glory of God in Christ? |
A53708 | Is it not right and meet it should be so? |
A53708 | Is it not the same Jesus who loved us, and gave himself for us, and washed us in his own Blood? |
A53708 | Is it not, that God is in him, and he is the great representative of his Glory unto us? |
A53708 | Is not his Will in all things Infinitely Holy, Wise, Just, and Good? |
A53708 | Is not the Cause of it, that we are unspiritual or carnal, having our Thoughts and Affections wonted to give Entertainment unto other things? |
A53708 | Many say, who will shew us any good? |
A53708 | May he not do what he will with his own? |
A53708 | ON the account hereof we may say at present, How little a portion is it that we know of him? |
A53708 | Of all that the Devil shewed our Saviour from the Mount? |
A53708 | Oh the blindness, the darkness, the folly of poor sinners? |
A53708 | Or do we think our selves not much concerned herein? |
A53708 | Or is it a state of universal misery and wo? |
A53708 | Ought not Christ to suffer, and to enter into his Glory? |
A53708 | SO the Apostle expresseth this Truth; Where is the Wise? |
A53708 | Shall it dismiss them all unpunished? |
A53708 | So the Psalmist found it in himself, in the time of his Distress: whence he calls himself unto that account: Why art thou cast down, O my Soul? |
A53708 | That can say, My heart is pure, I am clean from this sin? |
A53708 | That there is no Glory, no desirableness in Christ for Men to enquire after, and fix their Minds upon? |
A53708 | The Watch- men that go about the City found me, to whom I said, saw ye him whom my soul loveth? |
A53708 | The only enquiry is by what way and means we do receive them? |
A53708 | They saw the Glory of his Person and his Office in the Administration of Grace and Truth And how, or by what means did they see this Glory of Christ? |
A53708 | Those wherein he was appointed to be a Stone of stumbling, and a Rock of offence? |
A53708 | To look for Life by his Death? |
A53708 | WHAT are all the stained Glories, the fading Beauties of this World? |
A53708 | WHAT is the World, and what are the things thereof which most men spend their Thoughts about, and fix their Affections on? |
A53708 | Was it not esteemed a foolish thing to look for Help and Deliverance by the Miseries of another? |
A53708 | We may enquire, What shall we, what do we see in him? |
A53708 | We shall behold the Glory of Christ in its Lustre and Excellency: What is this Beauty of the King of Saints? |
A53708 | Were there any thing but Representations of Christ in the Glory of his Person and his Office? |
A53708 | What Glory is in these things? |
A53708 | What are all other things in comparison of the Knowledge of Christ? |
A53708 | What are they conversant about in their Thoughts? |
A53708 | What are they in comparison of one View of the Glory of God represented in Christ, and of the Glory of Christ as his great Representative? |
A53708 | What can be equal unto it? |
A53708 | What can be like it? |
A53708 | What capacity is there in our Nature of such an Habitation? |
A53708 | What do we behold in him? |
A53708 | What doth become the Justice of God to do thereon? |
A53708 | What is Man that thou art thus mindful of him, and the Son of Man that thou visitest him? |
A53708 | What is become of the Beauty, of the Glory of that Image of God wherein thou wast created? |
A53708 | What is his Design in this incomprehensible Work of his Wisdom, Love and Power? |
A53708 | What is it that any Man in distress, who flies thereunto may look for in a Sanctuary? |
A53708 | What is it that we see in Christ? |
A53708 | What is that Glory of Christ, which we do, or may behold by Faith? |
A53708 | What is the Faith and Love which such Men profess? |
A53708 | What is thy Beloved more than another Beloved, that thou dost so charge us? |
A53708 | What is thy Beloved more than another Beloved, thou fairest among Women? |
A53708 | What shall we say unto these things? |
A53708 | What was the High- Priest in all his Vestments and Administrations? |
A53708 | What was the Holy Place with the Utensils of it? |
A53708 | What was the Oracle, the Ark, the Cherubims, the Mercy- Seat placed therein? |
A53708 | What was the most whole Systeme of their Religious Worship? |
A53708 | What were the Sacrifices, and annual sprinkling of Blood in the most Holy Place? |
A53708 | What were the Tabernacle and Temple? |
A53708 | What will he not do for us? |
A53708 | When had we such a View of it as wherein our Souls have been satisfied and refreshed? |
A53708 | When he hideth his face, who then can behold him? |
A53708 | When wilt thou again give me to see thee, tho but as through the Windows? |
A53708 | Where are our Hearts and Minds, if we can see no Glory in it? |
A53708 | Where is Divine Righteousness herein? |
A53708 | Where is the Disputer of this World? |
A53708 | Where is the Scribe? |
A53708 | Where then is that Justice which spared not the Angels who sinned nor Adam at the first? |
A53708 | Wherefore do you desire to be in Heaven with him? |
A53708 | Wherefore do you honour him? |
A53708 | Wherefore do you trust in him? |
A53708 | Wherein doth the Blessedness of the Saints above consist? |
A53708 | Who among the Sons of the mighty, can be compared unto the Lord? |
A53708 | Who can express the Divine Beauty, Order and Harmony of all things that are in this their Recapitulation in Christ? |
A53708 | Who can speak of these things as he ought? |
A53708 | Who hath ascended up into Heaven, or descended? |
A53708 | Who hath bound the waters in a garment? |
A53708 | Who hath established all the ends of the earth? |
A53708 | Who hath gathered the wind in his fist? |
A53708 | Who hath known thy Mind, or who hath been thy Councellor? |
A53708 | Who is it that can justifie himself herein? |
A53708 | Who is it that is thus exalted over all? |
A53708 | Who is it that sits down at the Right Hand of the Majesty on high, all his Enemies being made his Foot- stool? |
A53708 | Who is thus encompassed with Glory, Majesty, and Power? |
A53708 | Who that believes in him, that belongs unto him, can fear to commit his departing Spirit unto his Love, Power and Care? |
A53708 | Who will give and help us to attain so much in and of this World, as will give Rest and Satisfaction unto our Minds? |
A53708 | Whom do they despise, and for what? |
A53708 | Will he not be a Sanctuary unto us? |
A53708 | Will he not do all for us we stand in need of, that we may be eternally saved? |
A53708 | Would this procedure have any consonancy thereunto, be reconcilable unto it? |
A53708 | a state incapable of comfort or joy? |
A53708 | and if thy Transgressions are multiplied, what dost thou unto him? |
A53708 | and that hereon he endeavours to be like unto him, what shall we have to oppose thereunto? |
A53708 | and why art thou disquieted in me? |
A53708 | how will they find themselves deceived in the Issue? |
A53708 | to have an everlasting subsistence in places incomprehensibly more glorious than the Orbs wherein they reside? |
A53708 | when shall we be ever with him? |
A53708 | when shall we see him as he is? |
A70766 | & c. Did they foresee that Deacons do baptize, and yet say in the Margin of that Book, Here let the Priest make the sign of the Cross? |
A70766 | & c. Or whether the Nonconformists be such as Grindal was? |
A70766 | ( of which the Papists have made great Advantage) and for all this enjoin a strict, constant Conformity, or Excommunications, and Writs, de capiendo? |
A70766 | And I would fain know what Benefit any Knave can make of Union? |
A70766 | And doth not the Kirk come to Church, and bow as formally to the South, as if it were towards the rising Sun? |
A70766 | And further, either you know the Contrivance, or do not know it? |
A70766 | And how can that be without a new Parliament? |
A70766 | And shall we poor Worms be at Enmity among our selves, for Trifles, to the hazard of the Comforts of this Life, and the Hopes of a better? |
A70766 | And then, whether we are to take the sence and meaning of the Law- giver from his first, or from his last and maturest Thoughts and Declaration? |
A70766 | And to imitate some of themselves in their way of arguing: Are not these things indifferent in their own nature? |
A70766 | And what doth that signify, but that it hangs loose upon your Brethrens Shoulders, and that it is to be laid aside? |
A70766 | Are they not commanded us by lawful Authority? |
A70766 | Are we more strictly tied by the Laws of Men, than of God? |
A70766 | Are you thereabouts with your Calves? |
A70766 | Because we conform to all seemingly, but hypocritically? |
A70766 | But I can not go along, but Questions interrupt ▪ well, Question, what have you to say? |
A70766 | But Sir, you produce our Subscription and Assent against us, and is there no Moderation of Sence and Interpretation of it? |
A70766 | But Sir, you say, you might sit down; but have you sate down and wept? |
A70766 | But how are they a secretis? |
A70766 | But if he had not believed it, why would he preach and print it? |
A70766 | But if it be so great a Crime to be a Dissenter and a Nonconformist? |
A70766 | But if this be the pernicious Effect of Moderation in point of Ceremony, what will their Moderation come to in Articles and Matters of Faith? |
A70766 | But now, Mr. Acuteness, if seemingly 〈 ◊ 〉 more than hypocritically, why have you made an opposition between them by your But? |
A70766 | But pray, Sir, how do you handle it? |
A70766 | But pray, Sir, how do you use to plow in your Country? |
A70766 | But then what becomes of your own Doctrine of misplacing Zeal about Circumstances, Rites, and Appendages of Religion? |
A70766 | But what are our Self- designs by Moderation and similibus? |
A70766 | But what can be done with us without another Act of Parliament? |
A70766 | But what can be said for the old- fashion''d Garment? |
A70766 | But which is rather to be omitted by the Minister, Baptism, which is an Ordinance of Christ, or the Cross, which is an Ordinance of Man? |
A70766 | But who went before us in a far greater Guilt? |
A70766 | But why fraudulent? |
A70766 | But, Sir, to conclude, having gently handled this Point long enough, I ask you, What think you? |
A70766 | But, pray Sir, in what capacity do we Church- Moles contribute to their encouragement? |
A70766 | By what Hocus Pocus, I pray, swallow all whole, in Subscriptions? |
A70766 | By what Law or Reason can he refuse to give him the Child? |
A70766 | By what per modum doth he know the secret Counsels? |
A70766 | Did the Law- givers foresee all Accidents that might happen, and conclude all Occurrences of Providence within their fore- sight? |
A70766 | Did they foresee that some Ministers can not maintain Curats or Readers to help them? |
A70766 | Did they foresee the Resolution of the Dissenters to persist? |
A70766 | Do not we know the power of a scrupulous Conscience? |
A70766 | Do not you furnish them with an unanswerable Argument against Conformity? |
A70766 | Do the Printers receive that in Charge from the King, or the Arch- Bishop, to print that Rubrick? |
A70766 | Do they wear plain Night- Caps, of black Silk, Satten, or Velvet? |
A70766 | Do we design to make Nonconforming Arch- bishops and Bishops, and hope to be their Sons in Law, their Chaplains, or to rise with them? |
A70766 | Doth the Church mind us of a Duty, which she requires not as often as the Communion- Service is said? |
A70766 | Either because of a mind to deceive, which you can not know, nor bring to your Visitation? |
A70766 | Either you know the Encouragers, or the Contrivers, or do not know them? |
A70766 | For we conform seemingly, and what can be done with such? |
A70766 | Grindalizer is the Badg and Cognizance, but what is the Coat? |
A70766 | Have you intercepted Letters? |
A70766 | How as relates not of necessity to a present Communion, and that to be said at the Lord''s Table? |
A70766 | How can we save some with Fear, making a Difference, but by Moderation? |
A70766 | How common a thing is it to take the Articles of the Church in a lax Construction, as Articles of Peace? |
A70766 | How doth he know it? |
A70766 | How much ease would it be to the Minds of our Brethren, to be rid of these Vipers, that prey upon the Bowels of their Mother? |
A70766 | How often hath he demanded such a Certificate? |
A70766 | How should it be handled, if not gently? |
A70766 | I shall not discuss whether Moderation be a single Vertue, or a Cluster of Vertues? |
A70766 | I will have Mercy and not Sacrifice, saith God; but what say such hard Masters as these? |
A70766 | If it be, wo ask, Will you swear to the Truth of it? |
A70766 | If so, then what Conformist is not guilty in a high degree of sinning? |
A70766 | If the whole Body were an Eye, where were the Hearing? |
A70766 | If the whole were Hearing, where the Smelling? |
A70766 | If there be any Pity in us to poor erring Souls, we must shew it in Moderation; Know we not that we our selves are subject to Errours? |
A70766 | If we do all seemingly, how do you know it is hypocritically? |
A70766 | In the capacity of Church- Moles in black Coats, or in some other colour? |
A70766 | Is bodily Weakness in an Infant, a better Reason than a Weakness, or the Judgment of Conscience in a Parent? |
A70766 | Is it left to the Reader''s understanding, and charity, to make what he pleases of it? |
A70766 | Is that a Fault? |
A70766 | Is there no occasion upon which this may either be justified or excused? |
A70766 | Is there such a Man in the Church? |
A70766 | Is there such to be found at all times, even in Cathedral Churches? |
A70766 | Nonconformity, Danger, Dishonour, open Enemy, or what should be the Substantive, or Antecedent to the Article or Demonstrative, This? |
A70766 | Not in those Words, When other Communion can not be had: Other than what? |
A70766 | Now who would take the Haven of Creet for the Emblem of a Grindalizer? |
A70766 | Or Peter and James in the first Council of the Apostles? |
A70766 | Or do they do it for Custom and Form sake? |
A70766 | Or how come you to know these close Cabals? |
A70766 | Or lastly, suppose the Parties scruple the Ceremony, shall we refuse to execute a Law of Nature, for want of an Arbitrary Local Ceremony? |
A70766 | Or shall we declare our selves more tender of hurting, a weak Body, than wounding a weak Soul? |
A70766 | Or the Apostle Paul, in becoming all Things to all? |
A70766 | Or there will be loss to both, if they put it off to another day? |
A70766 | Or, they who give a moderate Exposition of general Terms? |
A70766 | Or, what if the Man must take his Bride in the Humour? |
A70766 | Or, what is his punishment if he do not marry with it? |
A70766 | Or, who can, and be blameness? |
A70766 | Revelationis? |
A70766 | Shall an Ordinance be denied for want of a Ceremony? |
A70766 | Should the one be omitted, and not the other? |
A70766 | Sir, did you declare at your Ordination,( if you be a Minister) that you trusted you were moved by the Holy- Ghost, and called to the Ministry? |
A70766 | Sir, is this an Indictment, or an Accusation against us? |
A70766 | Some Persons are lame, and can not kneel; shall a Minister refuse them? |
A70766 | Speak your own Knowledg, or upon certain Information; Have any of them blabb''d any thing to you? |
A70766 | Suppose a Man affirm, that a strict, close, constant Use of the Letany be enjoined every Sunday, Wednesday, and Friday; how will he prove it? |
A70766 | Suspicionis? |
A70766 | That in some Countrys, Parishes are of a large Extent, and the People can not come together so early as in London and Market- Towns? |
A70766 | That many err unwillingly? |
A70766 | The Grindalizers do either contribute to the encouragement or are profess''d encouragers of these disloyal ill- principled Dissenters: But how? |
A70766 | The first of these is the most judicious Hooker; nay, if most judicious, he might have served alone; and what saith he? |
A70766 | Then, first, did he leave his Text, when he came to his Application? |
A70766 | Therefore as we would not Hypocritize,& c. and why not Grindalize? |
A70766 | These Grindalizers have only the villany to manage the Contrivance: But, good Sir, of what? |
A70766 | They who urge a Sense of Conformity more rigorous than the Law? |
A70766 | To disappear in the Execution; but still, Sir, of what? |
A70766 | To this I answer: Grant it to be in all; are those Forms and Rubricks enjoined by Act of Parliament? |
A70766 | Up what Chimney did you creep? |
A70766 | Was his Soul ever with them? |
A70766 | We handle the Surplice gently say you: Is that a Fault? |
A70766 | We read entirely; and you, and perhaps a few in some great Congregations, go away with a Wing or Leg of a Sentence; which is likest mangling? |
A70766 | We swallow all whole, say you, in Subscriptions; All what? |
A70766 | We will not follow Jeroboam, and worship his Golden Calves? |
A70766 | Well, but what is that to us, which way the Haven bends or bows? |
A70766 | Were they written by a Club, or an Association? |
A70766 | Were you ever a Witness of our Patience,& c. in this Case? |
A70766 | What Encouragement is this for Dissenters to conform, if by their Conformity they must shew no Moderation to the weak and doubting? |
A70766 | What Rubrick or Canon doth enjoyn the Minister to provide one? |
A70766 | What course did God take to save him? |
A70766 | What hurt did Gamaliel in the Council? |
A70766 | What if a Parent shall take or demand his Child as soon as it is baptized, from the Minister? |
A70766 | What if the Ox be taller than the Ass? |
A70766 | What kind of Law do you make this to be? |
A70766 | What kind of Law- makers do you represent ours to be, that made a Law, forbidding the Exercise of a certain Christian Duty? |
A70766 | What only on Communion- Days? |
A70766 | What, saith he, are there no Rubricks to direct the orderly reading of those Prayers where there is no Communion? |
A70766 | Where note, if it was a fault to admit a Church on the Geneva Principle, is it not a Grindalizing in our Arch- bishops and Bishops to suffer it now? |
A70766 | Who are they who are most guilty of making Dissenters? |
A70766 | Who but Archbishop Grindal, Queen Elizabeth, King James, yea, King Charles the First? |
A70766 | Who suffers most by these Slanders, a Party of Dissenting Protestants, or the Protestant Reformed Churches? |
A70766 | and to make an invariable Rule for all particular Times and Occasions? |
A70766 | and wept to remember Sion? |
A70766 | behind what Curtain? |
A70766 | broken open Seals, and discovered us? |
A70766 | do they wear in their Journeys, Cloaks with Sleeves and Capes? |
A70766 | how many of them wrote the Pleas? |
A70766 | if really, whether hypocritically? |
A70766 | if seemingly, whether we do not wear it really? |
A70766 | like Canvass or Fustian? |
A70766 | nor means and leisure to be inform''d? |
A70766 | or because of the fallacious Management of them? |
A70766 | or can you produce Witnesses of it? |
A70766 | or do we mince first, and swallow afterwards? |
A70766 | or per modum Observatoris? |
A70766 | or told you all, under an Obligation of Secrecy, which you keep by printing it? |
A70766 | or will you pawn your Verbum Sacerdotis upon it? |
A70766 | or, rather a Queen that governs and imploys other Graces in their several Services and Offices? |
A70766 | per modum Visionis? |
A70766 | simplices Intelligentiae? |
A70766 | that Catechising and Preaching must take up time? |
A70766 | that all have not a Capacity to judg? |
A70766 | that many Parishes can not maintain, or have not a Minister entire to themselves? |
A70766 | that many are prepossessed, prejudiced, melancholy, overturn''d by Passions? |
A70766 | that we have not Organs to make the Service easy and delightful, as some have? |
A70766 | the great Danger to the Protestant Religion by our Divisions, and Penal Prosecutions of them? |
A70766 | then who can conform? |
A70766 | thorow what Hole did you hear the Consultation? |
A70766 | under what Bed? |
A70766 | was he Patron of all the Preferments? |
A70766 | wept at the Waters of Babylon; or sate down with Pleasure to drink of the Cup —? |
A70766 | what all whole, without dividing Letters, Syllables, Words, Sentences? |
A70766 | what our Hands, Pen, Ink, Paper? |
A70766 | what rudely; scoursely? |
A70766 | what shall it be? |
A70766 | what''s the Substantive to other? |
A70766 | when we wear the Surplice, do we wear it seemingly? |
A70766 | whereas we do not subscribe to that Book then in use, to which the Canon relates, but to that which is now in use? |
A70766 | whether it be a Grace adorning the Christian Court? |
A70766 | why this: May not a Man bow towards Scotland, and be a good Church- man? |

A53707 | 16, 17, 18. but how? |
A53707 | 2. Who can declare what a glory it will be in us to behold this Glory of Christ? |
A53707 | 2? |
A53707 | 9. Who is wise, and he shall understand these things? |
A53707 | ALL Unbelievers do in their Heart call Christ Iohabod; Where is the Glory? |
A53707 | AND may we not a little examine our selves by these things? |
A53707 | All men indeed think themselves fit enough for Glory( what should hinder them?) |
A53707 | All others are laid under a severe Interdict, under what pretence soever they may be used, Who hath required these things at your hands? |
A53707 | An account why you do all or any of these things? |
A53707 | And hath not God given severe Rebukes unto many of us in their fearful miscarriages? |
A53707 | And how excellent then is that glory of Christ it self? |
A53707 | And if it were so in the Type, what is it in the Truth, Substance and Reality of it? |
A53707 | And is it not our Duty to live in a continual desire of that which he prayed so earnestly that we might attain? |
A53707 | And the Psalmist, How long Lord wilt thou hide thy self for ever? |
A53707 | And we may enquire, what was this Glory of Christ, which they so saw, and by what means they obtained a prospect of it? |
A53707 | And what are they, any, or all of them, in themselves, or unto us, considering our Condition, and the end for which we were made? |
A53707 | And what is the Effect of it upon those blessed Souls? |
A53707 | And what shall we fear in the Will of Christ as unto this end? |
A53707 | And would we have our souls recovered from these dangerous diseases? |
A53707 | Are not all things filled with the fruits of the negligence of such Professors in the Instruction of their Children and Servants? |
A53707 | Are not these the things which all th ● World of Jews and Gentiles stumbled and took Offence at? |
A53707 | Are our Minds every day conversant with Thoughts hereof? |
A53707 | Are they in us, and do abound, as the Apostle speaks? |
A53707 | Are we bowed down under the Oppression of any Spiritual Adversary? |
A53707 | Are we fat and flourishing in these things even in old Age? |
A53707 | Are we or any of us burdened with a Sense of Sin? |
A53707 | Are we perplexed with Temptations? |
A53707 | Are we strangers unto the heavenly visits of consolation and joys, those visitations of God whereby he preserves our souls? |
A53707 | Are we then any of us under Convictions of Spiritual Decays? |
A53707 | BUT the Enquiry is as before; How shall we have a view of this Love, of God as Love? |
A53707 | But as Job speaks, Where shall this Wisdom be found, and what is the place of understanding? |
A53707 | But he who hath obtained a View of the Glory of Christ, will in the midst of them all say, Whom have I in Heaven but thee? |
A53707 | But how incomparable with respect hereunto is that Condescention of Christ, whereof we have given an Account? |
A53707 | But the Question is, How me may attain it? |
A53707 | But the enquiry is, in what way, or by what means, we may obtain the supplies and communications of him unto this end? |
A53707 | But this seems somewhat strange unto Reason; where is the Justice, where is the Equity, that the just should suffer for the unjust? |
A53707 | But what can we see herein? |
A53707 | By what way or means shall we behold the Glory of it? |
A53707 | CONSIDER therefore his Infinite Condescention, Grace, and Love herein: Why all this towards you? |
A53707 | Can not he be happy and blessed without you? |
A53707 | Can we by searching, find out God? |
A53707 | Can we find out the Almighty to perfection? |
A53707 | Can you give a reason of this hope that is in you? |
A53707 | Can your Hearts endure, or can your hands be strong in the day of Wrath that is approaching? |
A53707 | Commonly they issue in a groan or a sigh; Oh when shall we come unto him? |
A53707 | DO any of us find decays in Grace prevailing in us; deadness, coldness, lukewarmness, a kind of Spiritual Stupidity and senseless coming upon us? |
A53707 | Did you love him first? |
A53707 | Do not Pride, Selfishness, Worldliness, Levity of Attire, and Vanity of Life, with corrupt unsavoury Communication, abound among many? |
A53707 | Do we bring forth the fruit of them so as to show the Faithfulness of God in his supply of Grace? |
A53707 | Do we esteem this pressing towards the perfect view of the Glory of Christ to be our Duty, and do we abide in the performance of it? |
A53707 | Do we expect, do we desire the same State of Blessedness? |
A53707 | Do we find an unreadiness unto the exercise of Grace in its proper season, and the vigorous actings of it in Duties of Communion with God? |
A53707 | Do we find our selves lifeless in the spiritual duties of Religion? |
A53707 | Do we look upon it, as that which is without us and above us, as that which we shall have time enough to consider when we come to Heaven? |
A53707 | Do we not abide, yea, abound in the Duties of his Service? |
A53707 | Do we on any of these accounts walk in Darkness and have no Light? |
A53707 | Do we see him as the Image of the invisible God, representing him, his Nature, Properties, and Will unto us? |
A53707 | Do we see the Father in him, or by seeing of him? |
A53707 | Do we seldom enjoy a sense of the shedding abroad of his love in our hearts by the holy Ghost? |
A53707 | Do we sufficiently consider, that the immediate Vision of this Glory in Heaven will be our everlasting Blessedness? |
A53707 | Doth it not change them into the same Image, or make them like unto Christ? |
A53707 | Doth it not fill and satiate them with Joy, Rest Delight, Complacency and ineffable Satisfaction? |
A53707 | Doth the imperfect View which we have of it here, encrease our Desires after the perfect Soght of it above? |
A53707 | Examine your selves whether you be in the Faith: Prove your own selves: know you not your own selves that Christ is in you, except you be reprobates? |
A53707 | For if one Man sin against another, the Judge shall judge herein; but if a Man sin against the Lord, who shall entreat for him? |
A53707 | For what are the things wherein we are to deny our selves, or forgo what we pretend to have a Right unto? |
A53707 | For what should beget such a Desire in them? |
A53707 | For who can declare this glory of Christ? |
A53707 | For who in the Heavens can be compared unto the Lord? |
A53707 | HAVE you in the way of your Profession had any Experience of these Spiritual Decays? |
A53707 | HOW do Men for the most part exercise their Minds? |
A53707 | HOW glorious then is the Condescention of the Son of God in his Susception of the Office of Mediation? |
A53707 | Hath he any Design upon you, that he is so earnest in calling you unto him? |
A53707 | Hath not God made foolish the Wisdom of this World? |
A53707 | Have they under all Tryals and Surprizals been quickly composed by them? |
A53707 | Have this Peace and Joy been maintained and born sway in your Minds? |
A53707 | Have we not been weary of God, untill we have abundant cause to be weary of our selves? |
A53707 | Have you deserved it at his hands? |
A53707 | He asketh that Question concerning his Church, What will ye see in the Shulamite? |
A53707 | How are the Souls of Believers ravished with the views of them? |
A53707 | How blind herein was the best Philosopher in comparison of the meanest of the Apostles, yea, of him who is least in the Kingdom of Heaven? |
A53707 | How do we behold it? |
A53707 | How imperfect are our Conceptions of him? |
A53707 | How much more abominable is the folly of men, who would represent the Lord Christ in his present Glory by Pictures and Images of him? |
A53707 | How much more should we prize that view of it, which we may have with open face, tho''yet as in a glass? |
A53707 | How unsearchable are his Judgments, and his Ways past finding out? |
A53707 | How weak are our Minds in their Management? |
A53707 | I speak of them, whose minds are better disposed towards heavenly things; and unto them I say, Wherefore do you love Jesus Christ? |
A53707 | IS Christ then thus glorious in our Eyes? |
A53707 | IT may then be said, what did the Lord Christ in this Condescention, with respect unto his Divine Nature? |
A53707 | IT was a priviledge( who would not have longed to partake of it?) |
A53707 | If thou sinnest, what dost thou against him? |
A53707 | If what we do be not enough, what is it that you require more of us? |
A53707 | In particular, is not the Duty of Family Prayer neglected by many, at least as to it''s constancy and fervency? |
A53707 | In them are represented unto us the desirable beauties and glories of Christ; how precious, how amiable is he as represented in them? |
A53707 | Is it because there is no God in Israel that these Applications are made unto the Idol of Ekron? |
A53707 | Is it not he, who in this World was poor, despised, persecuted and slain, all for our Sakes? |
A53707 | Is it not herein, that they behold and see the Glory of God in Christ? |
A53707 | Is it not the same Jesus who loved us, and gave himself for us, and washed us in his own Blood? |
A53707 | Is it not, that God is in him, and he is the great representative of his Glory unto us? |
A53707 | Is it nothing unto you to continue Strangers from and uninterested in all this Glory? |
A53707 | Is not the Cause of it, that we are unspiritual or carnal, having our Thoughts and Affections wonted to give Entertainment unto other things? |
A53707 | It is a rare thing that any one shall as much as say unto himself, Is it so with me? |
A53707 | MAY not God say of many of us, what he said of his People of old; Thou hast been weary of me, O Israel? |
A53707 | Many say, who will shew us any good? |
A53707 | ON the account hereof we may say at present, How little a portion is it that we know of him? |
A53707 | Of all that the Devil shewed our Saviour from the Mount? |
A53707 | Oh the blindness, the darkness, the folly of poor sinners? |
A53707 | Or are you not rather on all Occasions uneasie and perplexed? |
A53707 | Or do we think our selves not much concerned herein? |
A53707 | Ought not Christ to suffer, and to enter into his Glory? |
A53707 | SO the Apostle expresseth this Truth; Where is the Wise? |
A53707 | SOME do say on such Exhortations: What is it that you would have us to do? |
A53707 | SOME it may be will say, What then shall we do? |
A53707 | Shall I come before him with burnt- offerings, with Calves of a year old? |
A53707 | Shall I give my First- born for my Transgressions, the Fruit of my Body for the Sin of my Soul? |
A53707 | Shall it dismiss them all unpunished? |
A53707 | THIS therefore we are to enquire into: Doth it abide in us as formerly? |
A53707 | That can say, My heart is pure, I am clean from this sin? |
A53707 | That there is no Glory, no desirableness in Christ for Men to enquire after, and fix their Minds upon? |
A53707 | The Watch- men that go about the City found me, to whom I said, saw ye him whom my soul loveth? |
A53707 | The most, I presume will be ready with them in Malachi, to say, How, or wherein have we been weary of God? |
A53707 | The only enquiry is by what way and means we do receive them? |
A53707 | They saw the Glory of his Person and his Office in the Administration of Grace and Truth And how, or by what means did they see this Glory of Christ? |
A53707 | This, faith the Wise Man, is as the shining Light; that is, the Morning Light: And wherein is it so? |
A53707 | Those wherein he was appointed to be a Stone of stumbling, and a Rock of offence? |
A53707 | To look for Life by his Death? |
A53707 | WHAT are all the stained Glories, the fading Beauties of this World? |
A53707 | WHAT is the World, and what are the things thereof which most men spend their Thoughts about, and fix their Affections on? |
A53707 | Wall say, What have I to do any more with Idols? |
A53707 | Was it not esteemed a foolish thing to look for Help and Deliverance by the Miseries of another? |
A53707 | We hear the Word preached as much as ever; but do we do it with the same desire and Spiritual Relish as before? |
A53707 | We may enquire, What shall we, what do we see in him? |
A53707 | We shall behold the Glory of Christ in its Lustre and Excellency: What is this Beauty of the King of Saints? |
A53707 | Were there any thing but Representations of Christ in the Glory of his Person and his Office? |
A53707 | What Glory is in these things? |
A53707 | What are all other things in comparison of the Knowledge of Christ? |
A53707 | What are they conversant about in their Thoughts? |
A53707 | What are they in comparison of one View of the Glory of God represented in Christ, and of the Glory of Christ as his great Representative? |
A53707 | What can be equal unto it? |
A53707 | What can be like it? |
A53707 | What can be more required of us? |
A53707 | What do I lack yet? |
A53707 | What do we behold in him? |
A53707 | What doth become the Justice of God to do thereon? |
A53707 | What is Man that thou art thus mindful of him, and the Son of Man that thou visitest him? |
A53707 | What is become of the Beauty, of the Glory of that Image of God wherein thou wast created? |
A53707 | What is his Design in this incomprehensible Work of his Wisdom, Love and Power? |
A53707 | What is it that any Man in distress, who flies thereunto may look for in a Sanctuary? |
A53707 | What is it that is required of us? |
A53707 | What is it that we see in Christ? |
A53707 | What is that Glory of Christ, which we do, or may behold by Faith? |
A53707 | What is the Faith and Love which such Men profess? |
A53707 | What is thy Beloved more than another Beloved, that thou dost so charge us? |
A53707 | What is thy Beloved more than another Beloved, thou fairest among Women? |
A53707 | What shall we apply our selves unto? |
A53707 | What shall we say unto these things? |
A53707 | What was the High- Priest in all his Vestments and Administrations? |
A53707 | What was the Holy Place with the Utensils of it? |
A53707 | What was the Oracle, the Ark, the Cherubims, the Mercy- Seat placed therein? |
A53707 | What was the most whole Systeme of their Religious Worship? |
A53707 | What were the Sacrifices, and annual sprinkling of Blood in the most Holy Place? |
A53707 | What were the Tabernacle and Temple? |
A53707 | What will he not do for us? |
A53707 | When had we such a View of it as wherein our Souls have been satisfied and refreshed? |
A53707 | When he hideth his face, who then can behold him? |
A53707 | When wilt thou again give me to see thee, tho but as through the Windows? |
A53707 | Where are our Hearts and Minds, if we can see no Glory in it? |
A53707 | Where is Divine Righteousness herein? |
A53707 | Where is the Disputer of this World? |
A53707 | Where is the Scribe? |
A53707 | Where then is that Justice which spared not the Angels who sinned nor Adam at the first? |
A53707 | Wherefore do you desire to be in Heaven with him? |
A53707 | Wherefore do you honour him? |
A53707 | Wherefore do you trust in him? |
A53707 | Wherein doth the Blessedness of the Saints above consist? |
A53707 | Wherewith shall I come before the Lord, and bow my self before the high God? |
A53707 | Who among the Sons of the mighty, can be compared unto the Lord? |
A53707 | Who can express the Divine Beauty, Order and Harmony of all things that are in this their Recapitulation in Christ? |
A53707 | Who can speak of these things as he ought? |
A53707 | Who hath ascended up into Heaven, or descended? |
A53707 | Who hath bound the waters in a garment? |
A53707 | Who hath established all the ends of the earth? |
A53707 | Who hath gathered the wind in his fist? |
A53707 | Who hath known thy Mind, or who hath been thy Councellor? |
A53707 | Who is it that can justifie himself herein? |
A53707 | Who is it that is entangled with Corruptions and Temptations, that groans under a sense of a cold lifeless barren frame of Heart? |
A53707 | Who is it that is thus exalted over all? |
A53707 | Who is it that sits down at the Right Hand of the Majesty on high, all his Enemies being made his Foot- stool? |
A53707 | Who is thus encompassed with Glory, Majesty, and Power? |
A53707 | Who will give and help us to attain so much in and of this World, as will give Rest and Satisfaction unto our Minds? |
A53707 | Whom do they despise, and for what? |
A53707 | Why will ye dye? |
A53707 | Will he not be a Sanctuary unto us? |
A53707 | Will he not do all for us we stand in need of, that we may be eternally saved? |
A53707 | Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of Rams, or with ten thousands of Rivers of Oyl? |
A53707 | Would this procedure have any consonancy thereunto, be reconcilable unto it? |
A53707 | and if thy Transgressions are multiplied, what dost thou unto him? |
A53707 | and that hereon he endeavours to be like unto him, what shall we have to oppose thereunto? |
A53707 | doth he stand in need of you? |
A53707 | how will they find themselves deceived in the Issue? |
A53707 | prudent, and he shall know them? |
A53707 | to preferr present Trifles before the Blessedness or Misery of an Immortal State? |
A53707 | was this the way and manner of the Saints of old, of those that went before us in the same Profession? |
A53707 | when shall we be ever with him? |
A53707 | when shall we see him as he is? |
A53707 | wherein are we to blame? |
A53707 | why will ye perish? |
A53707 | why will you not have compassion on your own Souls? |
A53665 | 199, 200,& c. to be true, as some of them are most blasphemously false; yet, What is all this to his purpose? |
A53665 | All the question is, Whether Religion they brought with them? |
A53665 | And hath Rome need of these bold Sallyes against the vitals of Religion? |
A53665 | And have they so? |
A53665 | And if you will further contest, that such a Prophet was to abrogate the first Law, and bring in a new one, Who shall judge in this case? |
A53665 | And what is here for Purgatory, seeing the person is to be saved by the means of grace appointed by Christ? |
A53665 | And what then? |
A53665 | And what was the reason of this failure? |
A53665 | And who I pray is it, that manageth this charge? |
A53665 | And, can they take it kindly of those, who would shut up this gift of God from them whether they will or no? |
A53665 | Are these the things, which in their principles and practice, are blamed by Protestants? |
A53665 | Are they also to be taken disjunctively? |
A53665 | Are they any prayers that concern the Priest alone, which he is to repeat, though the people be present? |
A53665 | Are they not incomparably the greatest part of Christians? |
A53665 | Are they not rather justly to be supposed blind themselves, who can entertain such thoughts of it? |
A53665 | Are they not such as God commands to worship him? |
A53665 | Are they not such as have souls to save? |
A53665 | Are they not such, for whose sakes, benefit, and advantages, all the worship of the Church is ordained, and all the admistration of it appointed? |
A53665 | Are they not the Church of God, the Temple of the Holy Ghost? |
A53665 | Are they not, For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup? |
A53665 | Are they the publick prayers of the Church? |
A53665 | Are we wiser then he? |
A53665 | Besides, What is, or ever was, the Western Empire unto the Catholicism of the Church of Christ, spread over the whole world? |
A53665 | Besides, Who appointed them to be made? |
A53665 | Besides, might she not fall by Idolatry, or false Worship, or by Prophaneness, or Licentiouss of Conversation, contrary to the whole rule of Christ? |
A53665 | Besides, what is here about the invocation of Saints? |
A53665 | But I desire to know, What prayers of the Priest they are, which it matt ● rs not, whether the people hear or understand? |
A53665 | But after the chalice, he speaks with a limitation, Do this as oft as you shall drink it, in commemoration of me; What then? |
A53665 | But do we not see, de facto, what differences there are amongst you, who pretend, all of you, to be guided by Scripture? |
A53665 | But how shall we come to know, and be assured of all this? |
A53665 | But is he not, I pray, the same Man- God, still? |
A53665 | But is this indeed the difference between Papists and Protestants about the Saints? |
A53665 | But the question is, Whether they have what God allows them, and what he commands them to make use of? |
A53665 | But to what purpose should I do it? |
A53665 | But what if they understand of it nothing at all? |
A53665 | But what is it, he means by the Book? |
A53665 | But what is the matter? |
A53665 | But what is this indifferent use, and who are these antient Christians he tells us of? |
A53665 | But what, I pray, if this be the design of the Apostle? |
A53665 | But who, I pray, told our Author so? |
A53665 | But why have not Protestants a remedy for their evils, a means of ending and making up their differences? |
A53665 | But why have not Protestants a sure and safe way to issue all their differences? |
A53665 | But why is it not necessary in the way of Protestants? |
A53665 | But why so, I pray? |
A53665 | But, What is a general Custome of the Western Empire, in opposition to the command of God, and the evidence of all that reason that lies against it? |
A53665 | But, What shall we say to the other, and, in the other Texts, so often occurring to the same purpose? |
A53665 | But, how shall we know this to be so? |
A53665 | But, sayes our Author, why then do they not do so, why are they at such fewds and differences amongst themselves? |
A53665 | But, what stop? |
A53665 | By what Authority was she otherwise reproved? |
A53665 | By what general Council was she ever condemned? |
A53665 | Consult the writings of those dayes, of Alexander of Alexandria, of Athanasius, Gregory, Basil, Chrysostom, Austine, who not? |
A53665 | Could ever any one rationally expect, that these Gentlemen would be publick decryers of Fury, Wars, and Tumults for Religion? |
A53665 | Did it not come to very many parts of the World before you? |
A53665 | Did the Gospel first come forth from you, or came it unto you only? |
A53665 | Did the Gospel first come from you, or only unto you, that you thus exalt your selves above your Brethren all the World over? |
A53665 | Did the Pope first find it out, and declare it? |
A53665 | Did they baptize men into the name of the Pope? |
A53665 | Do Protestants teach, There are no such things as good works pleasing to God, or that those that believe, are not obliged to good works? |
A53665 | Do all these things put no value on them? |
A53665 | Do they know what they do, or with whom they have to deal? |
A53665 | Do they not wholly persist in the way traced for them by Paul, Peter, and Apollos, mightily convincing the Jews out of Scripture? |
A53665 | Do we not know by whom it first came to you, and from whom? |
A53665 | Doth he mannage the Arguments of the Jews against Christ, to intimate that we can not well by Scripture prove him to be so? |
A53665 | Doth he plead with them about their falling away from him that first converted them? |
A53665 | Doth he profess love and compassion to his Countreymen, to draw them off from their folly, to have been the cause of his writing? |
A53665 | Doth it not deliver what it commands us to understand, so as it may be understood? |
A53665 | Doth it speak contradictions, and set us at variance? |
A53665 | Doth it teach us to differ, and contend? |
A53665 | Doth our Author plead, that where, and from whom men had their Religion of old, there and with them they ought to abide, or to return unto them? |
A53665 | Doth the Sanctification of the Scripture, consist in the laying up of the Book of the Bible, from our profane Utensils? |
A53665 | Doth the mysteriousness of it, lie in the Books being locked up? |
A53665 | Doth this represent the practice of Papists, or Protestants? |
A53665 | For first, as to the Translation of the Scripture by the Jews into the Syriack Tongue, to what purpose doth he suppose, should this be done? |
A53665 | For, What are the words of a poor weak man to those of the Holy Ghost speaking directly to the same purpose? |
A53665 | Have they ever read the Scripture, or tasted any sweetness in it? |
A53665 | Have we more care of his Church then he had? |
A53665 | Have we not an express Command, not to follow a multitude to do evill? |
A53665 | How comes one, to be Sacred, another prophane and common? |
A53665 | How often doth God complain in the Old- Testament, that his people forsook Him for that which was not God? |
A53665 | I ask, Of this or that Age, or of the first? |
A53665 | I desire then to know, What are these vulgar people, of whom he talks? |
A53665 | I desire to know, Where they got that command, Thou shalt make Images? |
A53665 | I pray, Who told you so? |
A53665 | If the former; as the expression is uncouth, so I desire to know, Whether Purgatory be an instituted means of Grace or no? |
A53665 | If the latter, to what end is the issuing forth of the spirit mentioned? |
A53665 | If( saith he) God''s Laws be impossible to be kept; but, Who said so? |
A53665 | In what publick writing of any of their Churches? |
A53665 | In which of their Confessions do they so say? |
A53665 | Is any such thing pleaded by Origen, Tertullian, Chrysostom, or any one that had to deal with the Jews? |
A53665 | Is he God- Man, bodily present? |
A53665 | Is he the same Head that Christ was? |
A53665 | Is it Protestants he blames, and not Protestancy? |
A53665 | Is it a limitation of the use of either, and not a limitation of that kind of Commemoration of the Lord''s Death to the use of both? |
A53665 | Is it any otherwise sanctified, but as it is appointed for the use of the Church of all that believe? |
A53665 | Is it possible that any man in his right wits should talk at such a rate? |
A53665 | Is it the spirit after it is departed? |
A53665 | Is it, that it may be laid up, and be hid from that people, which Christ hath prayed, might be sanctified by it? |
A53665 | Is not the command equal to all? |
A53665 | Is not the same term as often annexed to the one, as well as to the other? |
A53665 | Is not this a ready way to make men Atheists, if only by inducing them to an imitation of that, which by his example he commends unto them? |
A53665 | Is she no other way capable of a defence? |
A53665 | Is their practice confined within the limits of these principles? |
A53665 | Is there any Nation under the Heavens, whereunto your power extends, wherein our blood hath not given testimony to your wrath and fury? |
A53665 | Is there any spirit of dissension breathing in it? |
A53665 | Is there any thing in his Epistle of the Pope, Cardinals, Patriarchs,& c? |
A53665 | Is there any thing needful for us to know, in the things of God, but what it reveales? |
A53665 | Is there intimated by our Author, a decay of Devotion and Reverence to Religious things, Temples ▪& c? |
A53665 | Is there no way to exalt the Pope, but by questioning the Authority of Christ, and Truth of the Scripture? |
A53665 | Is this in truth his business? |
A53665 | Is this that, which is intended by the Author? |
A53665 | Is this the Doctrine of the Church of England? |
A53665 | Is this the Doctrine of the Council of Trent, or of the Harmony of Confessions? |
A53665 | Is this the doctrine of the Papists concerning them? |
A53665 | Is this to be endured, that Calvin, that holy- faced man should say of such holy persons, that they had need to be redeemed and saved by Jesus Christ? |
A53665 | Is this to make it common, to apply it unto that use, whereunto of God it is segregated? |
A53665 | It is founded on that of the Apostle to the Corinthians, Did the Word of God come forth from you, or came it unto you only? |
A53665 | It will not indeed; But yet we suppose, that his presence with It by his Spirit and Laws will suffice; Why should it not? |
A53665 | May not Protestants say to them, Quae regio in terris nostri non plena cruoris? |
A53665 | Might not the persons of whom it consisted, have been destroyed by an earthquake, as it happen''d to Laodicea? |
A53665 | Might she not cease to be, and so consequently to be such? |
A53665 | Must they abide with them, follow after them, and imbrace the errors they are fallen into, because they first received the Gospel from them? |
A53665 | Naughty man, what hath he said of them? |
A53665 | Now the question is, Whether we shall rest in the Authority and Word of God, or in the Authority and Word of a Man, as the Pope is confessed to be? |
A53665 | Now, saith our Author, What is all this to the service of the Church? |
A53665 | Or is it the person before its departure? |
A53665 | Or what makes it in this place? |
A53665 | Or whose is it? |
A53665 | Or, Who, or What is it, you mean by this vulgar people? |
A53665 | Pray, What are the next words? |
A53665 | Prayers to St. Paul, St. James, Thomas, Panoratius, George, Blase, Christopher, Who not? |
A53665 | Prove it; ask the antient Fathers, and Councils, whether they ever heard of any such thing? |
A53665 | Saith he, This Church could not cease to be such, but she must fall either by Apostacy, Heresy, or Schism: But who told him so? |
A53665 | Shall the Truth be thence calumniated, as though it sent forth no beams whereby it may be clearly discerned? |
A53665 | Suppose a spirit so to issue forth as he talks? |
A53665 | Suppose then they come to be perswaded of such an uncertainty, What course shall they take? |
A53665 | Suppose they be in Heaven, What then? |
A53665 | The Scripture abounds in Testimonies given hereunto: St. James expresly; From whence come wars and fightings among you? |
A53665 | The trivial instances of the use of the Particle( and or et) disjunctively, as in that saying, Mulier est domûs salus,& ruina? |
A53665 | Their private devotions? |
A53665 | This Orator of Peace? |
A53665 | This, indeed, were something; but, Whoever supposed so? |
A53665 | This, what I pray? |
A53665 | To what end I pray, hath God sanctified it? |
A53665 | To what purpose then do you talk of Title to impose your conceits in Religion upon us? |
A53665 | Was all true, that the Jews accused the Christians of? |
A53665 | Was it the Popes Religion they taught and preached? |
A53665 | Was not the whole Church of Christ represented by them? |
A53665 | Was there any thing more frequent among the Pagans of old, than to object to Christians their Differences and endless Disputes? |
A53665 | Was this the method of Christ, or his Apostles, in drawing men to the Faith of the Gospel? |
A53665 | Were ever such bold assaults against the immoveable Principles of Christianity made by any, before Religion came to be a matter of carnal Interest? |
A53665 | What Church, I pray? |
A53665 | What can possibly be spoken more fully, distinctly, plainly, as to Institution, Precept, Practice,& Duty upon all, I know not? |
A53665 | What course doth the Apostle proceed in, towards them? |
A53665 | What course shall we take in the contest of assertions, that we may be able to make a right Judgment concerning him? |
A53665 | What do we talk of tother- day things, when we speak of the first news of Christianity? |
A53665 | What if they did so? |
A53665 | What in this case would be their duty who received the Gospel from them? |
A53665 | What is the meaning of that which follows, If there be no value or merit in good Works? |
A53665 | What makes that enquiry in our way at this time, If it suffice to Salvation, to believe, whatever life we lead? |
A53665 | What one individual Protestant was ever guilty of thinking or venting this folly? |
A53665 | What sorry shifts dost thou cast thy Patrons upon? |
A53665 | What then can be bound with this Rope of Sand? |
A53665 | What then is the This that good St. Paul so amply testifies unto, in his Epistle to the Romans? |
A53665 | What then, I pray? |
A53665 | What then? |
A53665 | What will hence ensue to the advantage of the pretensions of the Romanists? |
A53665 | What, if they were all Priests, that were there, as no one of them was, Was the Supper administred to them as Priests, or as Disciples? |
A53665 | When I happen upon any of these Discourses, I can not but say to my self; What do these men intend? |
A53665 | When? |
A53665 | Whence comes this Dove, with an Olive- branch? |
A53665 | Where is the Scripture, where the Antiquity, where the Reason for it? |
A53665 | Which be they? |
A53665 | Which of the Fathers ever wrote against her? |
A53665 | Who can tell us, what that is? |
A53665 | Who ever said so, taught so, wrote so, in England? |
A53665 | Who ever taught that there is no value in good Works? |
A53665 | Who told you so? |
A53665 | Who would love such a beast, that so claws and tears her embracers? |
A53665 | Who would not be sick of such trifles? |
A53665 | Why is not this part of his command as Obligatory to them, as any others? |
A53665 | Why so? |
A53665 | Will not Rome notwithstanding its seven Hills, be laid in a level with the rest of the World, by vertue of this Rule? |
A53665 | Wilt thou Reader know the meaning of them, and withall discern how thy pretended Teacher hath colluded with thee in this whole Discourse? |
A53665 | Would it do him any good to have it granted, or further his purpose? |
A53665 | Would not any man think, that he intended the Originals wherein it was written? |
A53665 | Yea, but this is not all, Christ is beholding to him for all the faith of his Deity that is in the world; Why so? |
A53665 | Yea, that he is more miraculous in him, then he was in himself: What proof, Sir, is there of this? |
A53665 | all by the same Synecdoche? |
A53665 | and how many do the Apostles shew us in the New, to have forsaken the Truth? |
A53665 | and what reason can be given, that they should not? |
A53665 | and, Whether it was believed so by Virgil, or is by any of the more learned Romanists? |
A53665 | and, what a triffling is it to tell us of the Popes Council at Nice? |
A53665 | and, whether is like to yield us more security in our assiance? |
A53665 | any thing of their power, and rule over other Churches, or Christians, not living at Rome? |
A53665 | but how comes our Author to know, that these things, in the Roman- mode, were brought into England at the first entrance of Christianity? |
A53665 | but how could he justly do it? |
A53665 | by what Authority were Writs issued out against me? |
A53665 | called to be Saints? |
A53665 | come they not hence even of your lusts that war in your members? |
A53665 | doth it follow, that in the pursuit of this design, he teaches nothing concerning the use of an unknown Tongue in the worship of God? |
A53665 | mens miscarriages, and not their Rule''s imperfection? |
A53665 | of what kind? |
A53665 | or by the sword, as it befel the Church of the Jews, or twenty other wayes? |
A53665 | or falling away from the Truth whereunto they were converted? |
A53665 | or of the Presbyterians, or Independents? |
A53665 | or what would you have us to conclude? |
A53665 | or, Declare that the Pope was crucified for them? |
A53665 | or, Do we think, that it becomes us thus arbitrarily to chuse, and refuse in the institutions of our Lord and Master? |
A53665 | or, Is there no mention of Preaching, unless it be said, that such a one preached at such a time, so long, on such a Text? |
A53665 | or, to use the words made use of once and again by our Author, Came the Gospell from them, or came it to them only? |
A53665 | seeing we must not believe, that the blood of Jesus purges us from all our sins; Who, or What is it then that he means by himself? |
A53665 | that now professed in England, or that of Rome? |
A53665 | the Church of Christians? |
A53665 | the Law, Prophets, and Hagiography? |
A53665 | the Paper, Ink, Letters, and Covering? |
A53665 | the same Christ, though the manner of his presence be altered? |
A53665 | this the way of the holy men of old, that laboured in the Conversion of Souls from Gentilism and Heresie? |
A53665 | to the whole World as well as to you? |
A53665 | what Officer of the State did ever, formerly, apprehend me? |
A53665 | what is it that is said to be made to the Lord? |
A53665 | who can bear such intemperate Theiomachy? |
A53665 | who told you so? |
A53665 | 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 what Book was kept in the Ark? |

A53713 | 1. that is, the Father; and what is to be believed in him? |
A53713 | 11, 12. if we have no pledge of his gracious presence with us? |
A53713 | 13 the Father in Love? |
A53713 | 14 no more? |
A53713 | 14. and why so? |
A53713 | 15 manifested, and may be discovered out of Christ? |

A53713 | 17. this new Creature is fed, cherished, nourished, kept alive by the fruits of Holinesse: to what end hath God given us new Hearts, and new natures? |
A53713 | 18 and are Religious persons, consider a little with your selves: hath Christ his due place in your hearts? |
A53713 | 18 some one thing, some another: consider I pray, what are all your beloveds, to this beloved? |
A53713 | 19. what reliese have we from thoughts of his immensity and omnipresence, if we have cause only to contrive how to fly from him? |
A53713 | 20 these things be so, what manner of men ought we to be, in all manner of holy conversation? |
A53713 | 20 unacquainted are the Generaliy of Professors, with the Mystery of this Communion, and the fruits of it? |
A53713 | 20, Is it pardoning mercy we receive of him? |
A53713 | 3 such, that men in killing us, will think to approve their Consciences to God? |
A53713 | 4 our Saviour tell it them at this season, to adde feare and perplexities to their griefe and sorrow? |
A53713 | 4 that should make him so desireable, and amiable, and worthy of Acceptation? |
A53713 | 46, b Principium culmenque? |
A53713 | 5, 6. whence then, should we take to our selves this boldnesse to walke with God? |
A53713 | 5. he dips his vesture in their blood: Oh how glorious is he in his Authority over his enemys? |

A53713 | 57 or amend our wayes, it is but going to Christ by faith, making this exchange with him, and so we may sinne that grace may abound? |
A53713 | 7, 8, 9. and what is he made king of? |
A53713 | 8 if once acquainted with the Terrour of the Lord is, Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? |
A53713 | 9. we have seen his Glory( saith the Apostle) what Glory is that? |
A53713 | ? |
A53713 | All naught, all out of Order, and Vile, Whence then is our Recovery? |
A53713 | Alters he not his Love towards them? |
A53713 | And a truely pressed soule on the account of Christs Absence can not cover its love, but must be enquiring after him; saw you him whom my soul loveth? |
A53713 | And are not the like praises and blessings due to him, by whom the work of Redemption is made effectuall to us? |
A53713 | And for his Mercy, Goodnesse, and the Riches of his Grace, how eminently are they made Glorious in Christ, and advanced for our good? |
A53713 | And how was it primitively made known? |
A53713 | And if this be so,( to shut up all) how many that goe under the name of Christians come short of the Truth of it? |
A53713 | And if this were the frame of their Spirit, what might be expected from others of professed prophannesse? |
A53713 | And in what Glory doth he excercise this power? |
A53713 | And is it not necessary, that they should be Holy, who are admitted into his presence, walke in his sight, yea lay in his bosome? |
A53713 | And is it not the the same towards thousands every day? |
A53713 | And shall I be regardlesse of him in that wherein he is concerned? |
A53713 | And what are we towards whom he carrieth on this work? |
A53713 | And what is it that they beare witnesse unto? |
A53713 | And what is such a vine good for? |
A53713 | And what is this Wisdome of God, that is thus made known to principalities and powers? |
A53713 | And what is this inheritance of Glory? |
A53713 | And whence is this fullnesse? |
A53713 | And who almost is there, that offends not on one of these hands? |
A53713 | Are there none who professe the Gospell, who have never once seriously enquired, whether they are made partakers of the Holy Ghost, or no? |
A53713 | Are they under affliction or in trouble? |
A53713 | Are we then freed from this obedience? |
A53713 | Behold what manner of Love the Father hath bestowed on us? |
A53713 | But by whom immediatly doe we receive this honour? |
A53713 | But have they any true consolation all their days? |
A53713 | But how is this demonstrated, how may we attaine an acquaintance with it? |
A53713 | But if they be so necessary, whence is it, that thou hast not acquainted us with it, all this while? |
A53713 | But is the Spouse contented with this dispensation? |
A53713 | But is there no more to be done? |
A53713 | But this is to no other end but to make them cry, who amongst us shall dwell with that devouring fire? |
A53713 | But what doth she now doe? |
A53713 | But what is all this to that view of it which may be had by a spirituall eye in the Lord Christ? |
A53713 | But will not this encourage to sinne? |
A53713 | But you will say, how can this be? |
A53713 | But you will say: How should we addresse our selves to the performance of this duty: what path are we to walk in? |
A53713 | Can I live one day without his consolations? |
A53713 | Christ is the power of God, and the Wisdome of God; hath he the sense of Guilt upon him? |
A53713 | Consider the Company they keep, it is with the Father, who so glorious? |
A53713 | Did this dwell, and abide upon our hearts, what a deare valuation must we needs put upon all his operations and actings towards us? |
A53713 | Doth he shed abroad the Love of God in our hearts? |
A53713 | For if Righteousnesse were by the Law, then were Christ dead in vaine? |
A53713 | From the Spirit dwelling in the Saints? |
A53713 | God; even our God, who is a consuming fire? |
A53713 | He is Light, We Darkenesse, and what communion hath Light with Darkenesse? |
A53713 | He is Love and we are enmity, and what Agreement can there be between us? |
A53713 | He q hid himselfe from him, was farre from the voyce of his cry, untill he cryed out, my God, my God, why host thou forsaken me? |
A53713 | He saies to his soule, doe these things seeme something to thee? |
A53713 | He was made under the Law, that is, in that condition that he was obnoxious to the will and commands of it: and why was this? |
A53713 | Here is Mercy enough for the greatest, the oldest, the Stubbornest Transgressor? |
A53713 | How can they possibly come to the end, who go not in the way? |
A53713 | How did their Fathers resist the Holy Ghost? |
A53713 | How doth he expostulate this with Syon? |
A53713 | How doth the good holy soule breath after instruction in the ways and ordinances, the statutes and judgements of God? |
A53713 | How faire then is he, who never had the least spot or staine? |
A53713 | How few of the Saints are experimentally acquainted with this priviledge, of holding immediate communion with the Father in Love? |
A53713 | How glorious is he that is the beloved of our soules? |
A53713 | How glorious is he to the Soule on this Consideration? |
A53713 | How if I should not be accepted? |
A53713 | How little able was I to look through the clouds and perplexities wherewith I was encompassed? |
A53713 | How little suitablenesse unto thy Holinesse is in my best duties? |
A53713 | How many Millions of Sinnes, in every one of the Elect, every one whereof Were enough to condemne them all, hath this Love overcome? |
A53713 | How much more blessed then are they, who stand continually before the God of Solomon, hearing his Wisdome, enjoying his love? |
A53713 | How saith it, have I demeaned my selfe, that I have lost my beloved? |
A53713 | How shall I value the mercy, that I have received? |
A53713 | How so? |
A53713 | How then is this Love of the Father; to be received, so as to hold fellowship with him? |
A53713 | How unwilling is a Child to come into the presence of an angry Father? |
A53713 | I aske what is a King more then a Beggar? |
A53713 | I have had sweet enjoyment of my blessed Jesus, he is now withdrawen from me; can you helpe me? |
A53713 | I know how the men of these attainments are apt to say, are we blind also? |
A53713 | I know not at all whether be Loves me or no; and shall I venture to cast my selfe upon it? |
A53713 | I say at such a time what will men doe? |
A53713 | I will give you the Comforter: and what then? |
A53713 | I will pray the Father for you? |
A53713 | If I be a Father, where is mine Honour? |
A53713 | If any man enquire about our love to God, we may say, what have we now done, is there not a cause? |
A53713 | If h Levi paid Tithes in the Loynes of Abraham, how is it that Christ did not sinne in the Loynes of Adam? |
A53713 | If the Love of a Father will not make a child delight in him, what will? |
A53713 | If they say, n come& have Fellowship with us; are not men ready to say; why, what are you? |
A53713 | If we can from thence only say it is a Righteous thing with him to recompence tribulation unto us for our iniquities? |
A53713 | In the nature of it; what is there in that forbearance, which out of Christ is revealed? |
A53713 | In what darknesse, saies such an one, in what streights, in what intanglements, was my poor soule? |
A53713 | Is he dead? |
A53713 | Is it Grace that we receive of him? |
A53713 | Is it any thing else but to be sharers in Troubles, Reproaches, Scornes, and all manner of evils? |
A53713 | Is it meet to take Childrens bread and to cast it unto doggs? |
A53713 | Is it not their unskilfulnesse in, or neglect of this Duty, even of holding Communion with the Father in Love? |
A53713 | Is it that we should kill them, stifle the creature that is found in us, in the wombe? |
A53713 | Is it the Spirit he gives us? |
A53713 | Is not this Soule- deceit from Sathan? |
A53713 | Is our beloved lost who for our sakes was upon the earth, poore and persecuted, reviled, killed? |
A53713 | Is this now the worke of the Spirit, which is abroad in the world, and perverteth many? |
A53713 | Is this the due Entertainment of him whom our Saviour promised to send for the supply of his Bodily absence, so as we might be no loosers thereby? |
A53713 | Is this the fellowship of the Holy Ghost that Believers are called unto? |
A53713 | It is impossible there should be any greater demonstration or evidence of love then this; what can any one doe more? |
A53713 | Let men go to the Sun, Moon& Stars, to showres of rain& fruitfull seasons,& answer truly, what by them, they learn hereof? |
A53713 | Lord God what wilt thou give mee, seeing I goe Childlesse? |
A53713 | Lord what am I in my best estate? |
A53713 | Love in the Father, is like Honey in the Flower? |
A53713 | May it not be said of many of them, rather that God is not in all their thoughts, then that they have Communion with him? |
A53713 | May not his Spirit say, why doe I still abide with these poore soules? |
A53713 | Now how can these be shed abroad in our hearts? |
A53713 | Now how ● o they hear witnesse hereunto? |
A53713 | Oh the world of sinfull follys, that our deare Lord Jesus beares withall on this account? |
A53713 | Oh what hast thou done blessed Jesus? |
A53713 | On the part of the Saints? |
A53713 | Or as David in another case, what have I now done, is there not a cause? |
A53713 | Quae nunc abibis in loca Pallida, rigida, nudula? |
A53713 | Quid autem misericordia, nisi alienae miseriae quaedam in nostro corde compassio: qua alicui ● possumus subvenire compellimur? |
A53713 | Quo fugis Encelade? |
A53713 | Quomodo igitur negat? |
A53713 | Secondly what is the best of their resolves and enduring? |
A53713 | Shall not the Iudge of all the world do right?) |
A53713 | Shall sinne and lust dwell in those thoughts which receive in, and carry out Love, from and unto the Father? |
A53713 | Shall the dust of the Ballance, or the drop of the Bucket be laid in the scale against him? |
A53713 | Shew me the sinner that can spread his Iniquities to the dimensions( if I may so say) of this Grace? |
A53713 | Should they not with all diligence cleanse themselves from all pollution of Flesh and Spirit, and perfect Holinesse in the feare of the Lord? |
A53713 | So much Sin& not ashamed? |
A53713 | So much guilt& not confounded? |
A53713 | That the will of the Spirit is in the worke; 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 he comes forth himselfe? |
A53713 | The watchmen that goe about the City found me, to whom I sayd, saw you him whom my soul loveth? |
A53713 | Their light is still but darknesse, and how great is that darknesse? |
A53713 | They can not endure to look on themselves,& how shall they dare to appeare in his presence? |

A53713 | When the ways of the Spirit of God are grievous and burdensome to us, when we say when will the Sabbath be past that we may exact all our labours? |

A37046 | And can any Christians warrantably, and without sin, recreate themselves with beholding such playes, the Actors wherein deserve to be excommunicated? |
A37046 | And can any reason agree better to this? |
A37046 | And can, or dare, any say, That he discharged that, or dispensed it away from Himself, to any other? |
A37046 | And if a man that hath money be obliged to lend freely, is not a man that hath land obliged to sell it, that he also may be in a capacity to do it? |
A37046 | And if any should say these are the Magistrates gift, and he may use them as he pleaseth? |
A37046 | And if it be sinful to receive it with such Persons? |
A37046 | And where was it ever seen that frequent company at such a time, and such company, proved useful? |
A37046 | Are these I say, Romances: are th ● se fancies, factions, and forg ● ries? |
A37046 | As for other Questions, as, How the Sacraments Seal? |
A37046 | Beside can it be thought, that so soon they thought it to be God, and yet so easily afterwards passed from it? |
A37046 | But who should give? |
A37046 | By Command? |
A37046 | Can it be by guess or accident( to speak so) that so many priviledges are fallen on that day? |
A37046 | Consider God in his relations to us, how often is he sinned against as a Father? |
A37046 | Dare the most proud, petulant, perverse, and prodigiously profane prater, pretending but to the name of a Christian, say it? |

A37046 | Eminently, what is required more as to holiness this day then on other dayes wherein also the Lords people should be holy? |
A37046 | Especially, seeing it is for the Families behoof, that these things were written? |
A37046 | First, What is the Punishment here threatned? |
A37046 | For what end are they used? |
A37046 | Fourthly: If by this Command Heathenish Idolatry, or the Serving God by Images be condemned? |
A37046 | How Vows bind? |
A37046 | How it is executed? |
A37046 | How often do ye take notice of them, or are suitably affected with them? |
A37046 | How often is your mind stirring and reeling like the raging Sea? |
A37046 | How our Lords day standeth in reference to this Command? |
A37046 | How short are we in these more common duties, that lye, as it were, among our feet? |
A37046 | How sound these Words? |
A37046 | How to walk in charity, alms, and distributing to others? |
A37046 | How to walk in managing of our estate, as to the gathering, keeping, or preserving and using o ● it? |
A37046 | How unbecoming for mean men, who ought to be sober? |
A37046 | How unbecoming is it for old men, that should be examples to others in sobriety? |
A37046 | How unbecoming is it to young ● en, whose youth should be otherwayes exercised? |
A37046 | How we are to walk in merchandize and bargains? |
A37046 | How we can love wicked men, and if their being such should not marr our love to them? |
A37046 | I demand why is it universal? |
A37046 | If a man may aim and endeavour to increase his estate, how far? |
A37046 | If any ask, How this Threatning is to be understood? |
A37046 | If any should ask here, if indeed the breaches of this command be greater sins then the breaches of the commands of the second Table? |
A37046 | If any should ask the cause, why men do ordinarily take so little notice of this Command, and so generally sin against it? |
A37046 | If any use, especially religious, of Images be lawful? |
A37046 | If it be asked from whence these differences, as to the effects of our love do flow? |
A37046 | If it be asked further, What is to be accounted of these actions, which are committed in drunkenness? |
A37046 | If it be asked here, Whether men or women, when health requireth vomiting, may not drink excessively for provoking to it, in place of Physick? |

A37046 | If it be asked then, How differeth love to the godly from common love? |
A37046 | If it be asked what the mentioning of God''s Name reverently is? |
A37046 | If it be asked, How can that be? |
A37046 | If it be asked, If and how honour differeth from love? |
A37046 | If it be asked, What honour doth import, and what may be comprehended under it? |
A37046 | If it be asked, What this duty of honouring our Neighbour doth include? |
A37046 | If it be asked, Wherein it is that an Oath bindeth more then a Promise doth? |
A37046 | If it be asked, Whether ontward expressive evidences of honour are alwayes to be given to the persons honoured? |
A37046 | If it be asked, Why God thus plagueth and threatneth the Children of wicked Parents? |
A37046 | If it be asked, Why the Lord is so peremptory in urging this Command, and in pressing the thing here commanded in the very least? |
A37046 | If it be asked, Why this sin is so threatned and punished even beyond other sins? |
A37046 | If it be asked, how one can fulfill that part of the command, enjoyning us to prefer another to our selves? |
A37046 | If it be asked, whether or not this promise is to be simply understood; and the accomplishment of it without any restriction expected or looked for? |
A37046 | If it be asked, whither or not a man may seek his own honour and fame, and how? |
A37046 | If it be further asked, Why all Superiours, yea all Neighbours, are spoken of as Fathers and Mothers? |
A37046 | If it be further asked? |
A37046 | If it be said there was no moral sinfulness in that kind of pollutions, what then could these Sacrifices and Washings signifie? |
A37046 | If it be yet asked, If, and how, one is to love himself? |
A37046 | If it be yet further asked, But what advantage have godly men by these temporal promises? |
A37046 | If it were asked here, how we may pitch or settle on a just price? |
A37046 | If rich men should be honoured? |
A37046 | If then there be a necessity to engage, it may be asked, How peace may be attained in it, and how we may be helped to perform? |
A37046 | If this bring not down self- Righteousness, and convince you of the necessity of a Mediatour, what will do it? |
A37046 | If ye ask then, Wherein is there any difference allowed? |
A37046 | If ye ask what suitableness we have to it? |
A37046 | If ● o, what will ye do? |
A37046 | In the last place we shall speak a little to this Question; If and How, the admission of scandalous persons doth pollute the Communion? |
A37046 | Is Sacriledge less then taking what is your own? |
A37046 | Is ever the mind quiet? |
A37046 | Is it not still his estate and of the same value? |
A37046 | Is it not such who have this qualification of Ruling their own Houses well? |
A37046 | Is this to bear burthen with a smitten family wherein one is dead, to come and burthen them, and table your selves in their house? |
A37046 | It may be here inquired: what it is to be religious in these common duties we owe to others? |
A37046 | It may be objected, But God rested the Seventh day? |
A37046 | It s good we have a High Priest to bear them: O, what if all our sins were reckoned, how hainous would they be? |
A37046 | It saith a day of seven is moral and necessary, which is all we say; and why necessary? |
A37046 | It''s Object: 2, It''s act, to kill? |
A37046 | It''s true, God might Soveraignly limit men, but where he hath given liberty( if it were but by concession) who can restrain? |
A37046 | Let us see then 1. wherein it consisteth? |
A37046 | Men might readily say; What needeth so much Rigidity in the manner of worship? |
A37046 | Next, if it be asked, what Idols are most subtil? |
A37046 | O how many irrational, and almost infr ● brutal practises are amongst us? |
A37046 | On whom it is? |
A37046 | Or wil ye take more boldly from Gods day, then from your own? |
A37046 | Or, if ● oynt- Communicants be thereby defiled? |
A37046 | Quest If all men should be honoured? |
A37046 | Question is, How then differ Oaths from Asseverations? |
A37046 | Question is, What may be said of Imprecations? |
A37046 | Secondly, it may be enquired how often by vertue of this command that day doth recur? |
A37046 | Should we love them all alike and equally? |
A37046 | That every one should observe that and honour it in another; What is it then to honour them? |
A37046 | That one should love all men? |
A37046 | The First Question then; is, What it is that is here Threatned? |
A37046 | The first is remember, what? |
A37046 | The first is the World; this is the great Clay- Idol that both covetous and voluptuous men hunt after, crying, Who will shew us any good? |
A37046 | The first is, whether these words, I am th ● Lord thy God,& c. be a part of the first Commandment, or a Preface to all the Ten? |
A37046 | The great question is concerning a promissory Oath, if in any case it may be made void, and cease to oblige, or, in what cases that may be? |
A37046 | This inordinateness may be in respect of frequencie, unseasonableness, carnalness in the manner; and what need is there to say more? |
A37046 | VVho hath woe? |
A37046 | We are now to clear the second question, If any worship may be given, and what worship is due to Images of any sort? |
A37046 | What can be the Reason that Christians thus Worship the Devil, and swear by him, as Israel did by Baal? |
A37046 | What humility and soft walking, what contrition and tenderness of heart; what frequency and fervency, what seriousness and spirituality in Prayer? |
A37046 | What if all did so gad abroad? |
A37046 | What if some in the Family could not read? |
A37046 | What is done without warrant of either Scripture- precept or practise, can not be dose in faith? |
A37046 | What is written in the Law? |
A37046 | What possible loss or want is it that can not be made up in him? |
A37046 | What solicitous securing of the grand Interest amid''st these shakings- loose of all other interests? |
A37046 | What then can be said for it? |
A37046 | What to account of the punishment of theft in the Court of men? |
A37046 | What to judge of, and how to carry in Usury( as it is called)? |
A37046 | What? |
A37046 | Whether is the Father or Magist are most to be obeyed, if they command contrarily? |
A37046 | Whether ought a Father to love his Son, or a Son to love his Father most? |
A37046 | Who can say, I am clean? |
A37046 | Why are your Visits stinted to such a time more then another? |
A37046 | Why the Lord doth so? |
A37046 | Ye have taken away my Gods from me, and what have I more? |
A37046 | Ye shall not steal, neither deal falsly, neither lie one to another, — Thou shalt not defraud thy neighbour, neither rob him? |
A37046 | Yea, if even wicked men also? |
A37046 | Yea, would he not be thought Infamous in breaking his Good Faith? |
A37046 | a little of whom can go far, inconceivably far, to fill up much empty and voyd room, through the removal of many and most choice Creature- comforts? |
A37046 | and doth it not often yield consent to these motions? |
A37046 | and for what ends? |
A37046 | and how especialy unbecoming is it for men of place and reputation? |
A37046 | and how few good purposes are often followed forth? |
A37046 | and how little care and pains is taken to walk by the former rules in them? |
A37046 | and if it be not a breach of this command to give ● ny religious worship to any of them? |
A37046 | and if so, if God will be avenged on these severely? |
A37046 | and should it not alwayes be looked for? |
A37046 | and therefore may it not yield that same equivalent by moderate usury or interest? |
A37046 | and what a posture would a man be in, when in such a case, to meet death? |
A37046 | and what a sum will they come to, if our performances of holy duties have so many sins in them? |
A37046 | and what lively longings, with sweet submissions to his Will to be dissolved, and to be with Jesus Christ, which is best of all? |
A37046 | and what marks to know them by? |
A37046 | and when the sins of a Sabbath are counted, how many will they be? |
A37046 | and whence it came, and what way may it be stinted or limited among Christians? |
A37046 | and wherein this goeth beyond these? |
A37046 | and why neglect ye that which is best for them? |
A37046 | and will not the unsutable sanctification of but one Sabbath, or the interruption of their wonted seriousness therein, giue them a sore backset? |
A37046 | are these fables cunningly devised and told by the Non conformists- Preachers? |
A37046 | as many do now in our dayes; and shal this be displeasing to the Lord, and not the other? |
A37046 | but that you are in expectation of one, even a Heavenly Country, so that God is not ashamed to be called your God? |
A37046 | by what means? |
A37046 | can or dare men pray in earnest for Gods guiding in these things, in every throw of Dice, or shuffling of the Cards? |
A37046 | do not all Writers, who comment on the Decalogue, comment on this Command, and urge the sanctifying of the Lords day from it? |
A37046 | drink how much or how little they will? |
A37046 | flye ye must to Christ, or lye still; and can there be any secure lying still for but one hour, under Gods Curse drawn out? |
A37046 | how do ye joyn in prayer with others? |
A37046 | how few work, or work somewhat harder for this end? |
A37046 | how is his kindness abused, and he not reverenced as Creator of whom we have our Being? |
A37046 | how little conscience is made of this? |
A37046 | how often are these broken, even in that which we might easily do? |
A37046 | how often is it sadly verified?) |
A37046 | how often will we find this Commandment broken? |
A37046 | how readest thou? |
A37046 | if it be not here, where is it? |
A37046 | if it be one of seven? |
A37046 | if our professions( who are least in them) were met and measured by our reality, O how lamentable vast a disproportion would be found? |
A37046 | is it not rather to make the house of mourning a house of feasting ▪ and to forget the end of all living, which the living should lay to heart? |
A37046 | is there no better, no more innocent and inoffensive way? |
A37046 | often so, as ye would be ashamed to pray before men; how do ye Read, Meditate,& c. in secret? |

A37046 | or what they Seal? |
A37046 | or when it is done, and past, can they suitably acknowledge Him in it? |
A37046 | or, How he doth reach Children with eternal plagues for their Parants sins? |
A37046 | or, if it be the very seventh? |
A37046 | should they then actively remove the use of their reason by a practise which may be inductive to such abominations? |
A37046 | tell me( if ye remember what we spoke in the opening of it) is there any of you that lyeth not under the stroak of it? |

A37046 | what Mortification of Lusts, what deadness and denyedness to, and what weanedness from all Creature- comforts and delights of the sons of Men? |

A37046 | what delight- some meditations on God, and on his Law? |
A37046 | what discontents with providences, grudgings, vain wishings,& c. are there? |

A37046 | what provision do some make for the flesh, to fulfill the lusts thereof,& how careful Caterers are they this way for their corruptions? |
A37046 | what sitting alone and keeping silence because he hath done it? |

A53720 | * Magnum aliquid Pelagiani se scire putant quando dicunt, non Juberet Deus quod seit non posse ab homine fieri, quis hoc nesciat? |
A53720 | * Magnum aliquid Pelagiani se scire putant quando discunt, non Juberet Deus quod sit non posse ab homine fieri, quis hoc nesciat? |
A53720 | * Nonne advertimus multos fideles nostros ambulantes viam Dei, ex nulla parte ingenio comparari; non dicam quorundam haereticorum, sed etiam minorum? |
A53720 | * Quid est omnis qui audivit a Patre,& didicit, venit ad me; nisi nullus est qui audiat& discat a Patre& non veniat ad me? |
A53720 | * Quis istis corda mutavit, nisi qui finxit singillatim corda eorum? |
A53720 | * Quomodo prosiciebat sapientia Dei? |
A53720 | * Wherefore I enquire,( Secondly) Whether God doth really effect and work in any the things which he here promiseth that he will Work and Effect? |
A53720 | 13. yet in single Acts who can go further? |
A53720 | 16 What is in the Manner of Teaching by the greatest Moralist; and what are the Effects of it? |
A53720 | 22 Is it from his Actings as the great Prophet of the Church, that you expect Help and Relief? |
A53720 | 23 Will you betake your selves to the Kingly Office of Christ, and have you Expectations on him by vertue thereof? |
A53720 | 36 But how will this effect it, how will sin be mortified hereby? |
A53720 | 8 Besides,( Secondly,) what shall become of the Honour and Holiness of the Gospel on this Supposition? |
A53720 | A constant humble Acknowledgement of Sin; Who can understand his Errors? |
A53720 | A perswasion of our Minds by rational Motives taken from the Word, and the Things contained in it? |
A53720 | Again 3 ly, May Believers in Trouble pray for the Spirit of Consolation with respect unto their Troubles, it being unto such that he is promised? |
A53720 | And asketh who hath known the mind of the Lord, or who hath been his Counsellor? |
A53720 | And by what Means is this effected? |
A53720 | And concerning this also we may say Who teacheth like him? |
A53720 | And do you not herein invite all sorts of Sinners, the worst and the greatest, to come unto him by Christ, that they may be pardoned and accepted? |
A53720 | And how are we made Partakers hereof? |
A53720 | And how is it given us? |
A53720 | And how is this new Heart communicated unto us? |
A53720 | And how shall he effect this Work? |
A53720 | And how should the Heart resist the Work of Grace, when that whereby it should resist is effectually taken away? |
A53720 | And shall such Persons, by reason of whom the Name of Christ is dishonoured and blasphemed continually, expect Advantage by him or Mercy from him? |
A53720 | And shall we not now put all our Temporary Concerns into the same Hand? |
A53720 | And that Pharaoh who despised one day, saying, Who is the Lord that I should regard him? |
A53720 | And the same is here supposed in Men? |
A53720 | And unto what end? |
A53720 | And what are these things that he shall so declare? |
A53720 | And what do these Men intend by this quickning, this raising us from the Dead by the Power of God? |
A53720 | And what is more so of Christ than his Blood and its Efficacy for the purging of our sins? |
A53720 | And what is the Effect hereof? |
A53720 | And what need then is there of Jesus Christ? |
A53720 | And where then is the Advantage pretended, that should render Holiness so indispensibly necessary unto us? |
A53720 | And wherein have we any advantage of the Jews, or wherein consists the preeminence of the Gospel? |
A53720 | And who knowes not how the Scripture abounds in Instances of this Nature? |
A53720 | And who knowes not what will be the End of such a cursed Hope and Expectation? |
A53720 | Are there not open and visible Decayes in many, as to the whole Spirit, all the Dutyes and Fruits of Holiness? |
A53720 | Are you by it dedicated unto God, and made his peculiar Ones? |
A53720 | Are you cleansed, and sanctified, and made Holy thereby? |
A53720 | Are you dead and cold in Duties, backward in Good Works, careless of your Hearts and Thoughts, addicted to the World? |
A53720 | Are you redeemed out of the World by it, and from your vain Conversation therein, after the Customs and Traditions of men? |
A53720 | Art thou saith he, a Master in Israel and knowest not these things? |
A53720 | But how cometh the Spirit himself the Author of these Revelations to be acquainted with these things? |
A53720 | But how do they prove it? |
A53720 | But how is this proved? |
A53720 | But how may this be done, by what means may it be accomplished? |
A53720 | But how shall this be effected and brought about? |
A53720 | But how shall this be effected? |
A53720 | But if Sin be in us we are defiled, and how shall we be Cleansed? |
A53720 | But if thine Eye be evil, the whole Body shall be full of Darkness; if therefore the Light that is in thee be Darkness, how great is that Darkness? |
A53720 | But if we our selves give way to Temptations, Corruptions, Negligences, Conformity to the World, is it any wonder if we are lifeless and thriftless? |
A53720 | But is this the way which they like and choose to express their Notions and Apprehensions? |
A53720 | But supposing that they made a real industrious Attempt for the Mortification of sin, what success have they had, what have they attained unto? |
A53720 | But to what purpose is it to hide our selves from our selves when we have to do with God? |
A53720 | But under what especial Consideration doth he effect this Work of mortifying sin in us? |
A53720 | But unto what End was this touching of his Garment? |
A53720 | But was there ever heard of such a monstrous Expression, if there be nothing else in it? |
A53720 | But what Ground or Colour is there for any such Notions in the Scripture? |
A53720 | But what could the Testimony of twelve poor Men, though never so honest, prevail against the confronting Suffrage of the World? |
A53720 | But what is his End therein? |
A53720 | But what is it that really they ascribe unto him? |
A53720 | But what is this unto Evangelical Holiness and Obedience? |
A53720 | But what value is there in that Name or Title, where the whole Mystery of the Gospel is excluded out of our Religion? |
A53720 | But when this is done for us, is there ought else yet remaining to be done? |
A53720 | But when we have to deal with God, who puts no trust in his Servants, and chargeth his Angels with Folly, what shall we say? |
A53720 | But who is this Spirit? |
A53720 | But why doe I say, it is possible? |
A53720 | But will that suffice, or is there no more required of us unto that End? |
A53720 | But will this warrant the Course which it is manifest they steer in Matter and Manner? |
A53720 | Can not the best among us contribute somewhat to the Evidence hereof from our own Experience? |
A53720 | Can the same Fountain send out sweet and bitter water? |
A53720 | Can the same Soveraign Pleasure of God, be the free only Cause of all our Blessedness, and can it do that which is really Evil unto us? |
A53720 | Can this be any otherwise done but by Holiness of Heart and Life, by Conformity to God in our Souls, and living unto God in fruitfull Obedience? |
A53720 | Chosen we are unto Salvation, by the free Soveraign Grace of God: But how may this Salvation be actually obtained? |
A53720 | Despisers of its Fruits in Holiness, shall never have the least Interest in its Fruits in Righteousness? |
A53720 | Did God set his Heart upon some from Eternity? |
A53720 | Did ever any pious Soul couch such an Intention in his Supplications? |
A53720 | Do Men consider with whom and what they make bold in these things? |
A53720 | Do we know how the members of the Body are fashioned in the womb? |
A53720 | Do you find his Doctrine Effectual unto these Ends, and are your Hearts and Minds cast into the Mould of it? |
A53720 | Doth he design to give them the highest, greatest, best Fruits and Effects of his Love, and Glorifie himself in their Prayses for ever? |
A53720 | Doth he therefore reject and despise those that are Tempted, that labour and suffer under their Temptations? |
A53720 | Doth it not declare that it is shamefully naked, destitute of all Beauty and Comeliness, wholly polluted and defiled? |
A53720 | Doth not even Nature it self teach you? |
A53720 | Ergo cum ille nos in regnum suum per adoptionem sacrae regenerationis assumpserit, nos ei quod suum est denegamus? |
A53720 | Et ad quid hoc? |
A53720 | For he is God, and who hath resisted his Will? |
A53720 | For how in general doth the Holy Spirit teach us and enable us to pray? |
A53720 | For how should he so do? |
A53720 | For how, or in what sense can an Act of the Power of God be Given by him, or be Received by us? |
A53720 | For if the Holy Ghost be God himself, as hath been declared, how can he be said to be given by the Father, as it were, in a way of Authority? |
A53720 | For the deeds of the Law no man can be justified: If thou Lord shouldest mark Iniquities, O Lord who shall stand? |
A53720 | For to what purpose is it to exhort Blind Men to see, or Dead Men to live, or to promise Rewards unto them upon their so doing? |
A53720 | For what can he who is God so receive? |
A53720 | For what could not I have done, who loved wickedness for it self? |
A53720 | For what have we in or from our selves, on the Account whereof we should be lifted up? |
A53720 | For what should Creatures of such a base and defiled Extraction have to boast of in themselves? |
A53720 | For what should make it otherwise, seeing there was no Change in it by Sin, nor did God require more or harder things of us than before? |
A53720 | For what were we when he thus set his Heart upon us, to choose us, and to do us good for ever? |
A53720 | For whence in that Case should they arise or Spring? |
A53720 | For whereas he is absolutely pure, holy, and perfect, how can he have Vnion or Communion with them who are in any thing defiled? |
A53720 | For who is sufficient for these things? |
A53720 | For why should they do so who are sensible of no Spiritual Pollution, nor have the least touch of shame with respect thereunto? |
A53720 | For, say they, if God have freely from Eternity chosen men unto Salvation, what need is there that they should be Holy? |
A53720 | For, what Cloke or Pretence of Dislike or Neglect is here left unto any? |
A53720 | From whence come Warrs and Fightings among you, come they not hence, even of your Lusts that war in your Members? |
A53720 | God commands that we should be so, but what if we are not so? |
A53720 | Hast thou not heard, hast thou not known? |
A53720 | Hath he instructed you unto sincerity in all your Wayes, Dealings, and whole Conversations among men? |
A53720 | Hath he strengthened, aided, supported, assisted you by his Grace, unto all Holy Obedience? |
A53720 | Hath he subdued your Lusts, those Enemies of his Kingdom, which fight against your Souls? |
A53720 | Hath he taught you to be humble, to be meek, to be patient, to hate the Garment spotted with the flesh? |
A53720 | Hath his Blood purged your Consciences from dead works, that you should serve the living God? |
A53720 | Have you effectually learned of him to deny all Vngodliness and worldly Lusts, to live Righteously, and Soberly, and Godly in this present World? |
A53720 | Hence by Nature we are wholly unclean; who can bring a clean thing out of that which is unclean? |
A53720 | Herein I confess he was horribly assaulted until he cryed out, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? |
A53720 | How and by whom is this done? |
A53720 | How can a Quality, an Accident, an Emanation of Power from God be tempted? |
A53720 | How can the Vertue of God or the Power of God be said to be poured out, to be shed abroad& the like? |
A53720 | How can this be seeing I know not a Man? |
A53720 | How come they then eminently to be assigned one to one Person, another to another? |
A53720 | How difficult is it to keep it up unto an even fixed stable frame of acting spiritually in Spiritual Things? |
A53720 | How full is the World of Disorder, Confusion, Oppression, Rapine, Uncleanness, Violence, and the like dreadfull Miseries? |
A53720 | How is it of Soveraign Mercy that I am now in this State and Condition of Plenty and Peace? |
A53720 | How is it ready at every breath to unbend and let down its Intension? |
A53720 | How is it then that we may yield a Revenue of Glory herein? |
A53720 | How many that are called Christians doth this Character suit in these dayes? |
A53720 | How may this be Exercised? |
A53720 | How often doth God charge his People with Back- sliding, Barrenness, Decayes in Faith and Love? |
A53720 | How shall they be able to bring forth Fruit? |
A53720 | How then doth he bear witness with our Spirits? |
A53720 | How then is he said to Choose us that we should be Holy? |
A53720 | How then may this be done or effected? |
A53720 | How then sayest thou that God hath forsaken thee? |
A53720 | How unable is the Mind of man to find out Rest and Peace in them or from them? |
A53720 | I have a Baptism to be Baptized withal, and how am I straitned, or pained, till it be accomplished? |
A53720 | I say, how, by what Power and Vertue were they healed in the Wilderness, who looked unto the Brazen Serpent? |
A53720 | If I be wicked, saith Job, why then labour I in vain? |
A53720 | If he doth not, where is his Truth and Faithfulness? |
A53720 | If so, which of them? |
A53720 | If these are the things which they intend, what is the matter with them? |
A53720 | In all these Respects we may say of Christ as Job said of God, Who teacheth Like him? |
A53720 | Is it from his Sacerdotal? |
A53720 | Is it lawful for us, is it our duty to pray that God would do and effect what he had promised to do, and that both for our selves and others? |
A53720 | Is it not that the Body, the Power, the whole Interest of Sin in you may be weakened, subdued, and at length destroyed? |
A53720 | Is it not then our Duty alwayes to consider these Commands, to bind them unto our Hearts, and our Hearts to them, that nothing may seperate them? |
A53720 | Is it so easie a thing to kill an Enemy who hath so many Advantages of force and fraud? |
A53720 | Is it that which gives us a new Heart, with the Law of God written in it? |
A53720 | Is it that which he worketh in us in the pursuit of Electing Love? |
A53720 | Is it that which is purchased and procured for us by Jesus Christ, and the Encrease whereof in us he continueth to intercede for? |
A53720 | Is it the Image of God in us, and doth our Conformity unto the Lord Christ consist therein? |
A53720 | Is it the Renovation of the Image of God in us by Grace? |
A53720 | Is not this to bear witness with the World against him, that indeed his Life was unholy? |
A53720 | Is the Spirit of the Lord straitned or shortned? |
A53720 | Is there no Alteration made in Religion by the Interposition of the Person of Christ to be Incarnate, and his Mediation? |
A53720 | Is there no Danger in this Warfare? |
A53720 | Is there not somewhat peculiar herein, beyond any other Act or Duty of our Lives? |
A53720 | Is this Moral Vertue, that which God hath predestinated or chosen us unto before the Foundation of the World? |
A53720 | Istane est( saith he) innocentia puerilis? |
A53720 | It is all sin, and nothing else; why do the Dispensers of the Gospel press any Duties on such as they know to be in that estate? |
A53720 | It may be asked why these are called Prophets? |
A53720 | It will be said then, where lies the Difference? |
A53720 | Know you not that ye are the Temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? |
A53720 | Know you not that ye are the Temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? |
A53720 | May a Person who is yet Vnregenerate pray for the Spirit of Regeneration to effect that Work in him? |
A53720 | Must it not be looked on as a Doctrine less Holy than that of the Law? |
A53720 | Namely openly to revile and scorne the very Naming and asserting the work of the Spirit of God, in the words which himself hath taught? |
A53720 | Nay, would not this indeed make Christ the Minister of Sin, which our Apostle rejects with so much Detestation? |
A53720 | Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a Man be born when he is old; can he enter the second time into his Mothers Womb and be born? |
A53720 | No Alteration in the Principles, Aids, Assistances, and whole Nature of our Obedience unto God? |
A53720 | No Augmentation of the Object of Faith? |
A53720 | Notes for div A53720-e68380* Si in Gratia, non ex natura Aquae, sed ex praesentia est Spiritus Sancti: numquid in Aqua vivimus, sicut in Spiritu? |
A53720 | Now consider what it is that in your Prayers you most labour about? |
A53720 | Of what use then is the Spirit of God in these things? |
A53720 | On the like occasion did the Pharisees ask of our Saviour that question with pride and scorn; are we blind also? |
A53720 | Or that he deserts and gives over the Work of Grace which he hath undertaken towards them as not able to accomplish it? |
A53720 | Or that the several Gifts of the Spirit are so many distinct kinds of it? |
A53720 | Or the Holy Ghost is one in general, because many Effects are ascribed unto him? |
A53720 | Or, do we only desire that God would so help us, as to leave us absolutely undetermined, whether we will make use of his help or no? |
A53720 | Our God, saith the Apostle, is a consuming fire; what then, what follows as our Duty thereon? |
A53720 | Poor lost undone Creatures, that lay perishing under the Guilt of our Apostasie from him? |
A53720 | Quanto minus vereri debuit Mansuetam gregem tuam pronuncians verbum tuum, qui non verebatur in verbis suis turbas insanorum? |
A53720 | Quid enim aliud est potestas nisi adsit animus Apostolicus? |
A53720 | Quid enim non facere potui qui etiam gratuitum ama ● i facinus? |
A53720 | Quis autem ibi eum non noverat? |
A53720 | Quis hujus rigoris duritiem ad obediendi mollivit affectum, nisi qui potens est de lapidibus Abrahae silios excitare? |
A53720 | Shall we say that he designs only a weak and imperfect Work upon the Hearts of Men? |
A53720 | Shall we then think that the Holy Spirit of God will immix his own Holy Inspirations with the wicked suggestions of the Devil in a South- sayer? |
A53720 | Should a Wise- man utter 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 knowledg of Wind? |
A53720 | So far as it is thus with us, may we not, ought we not greatly to blame our selves? |
A53720 | That remains therefore to be enquired into, Who is intended in that word Me? |
A53720 | The sole Enquiry is, How we may do so, and what he requireth of us to that purpose? |
A53720 | Was it because they meerly pretended and counterfeited a Spirit of Prophesie, or had they really any such? |
A53720 | Were it not as good for them to indulge unto their Lusts and Pleasures, seeing all comes to one end? |
A53720 | Were it not better to leave them to themselves and wait for their Conversion, than to spend time and labour about them to no purpose? |
A53720 | What Allusion is there between that Work, and the doctrinal proposal of Truth to the Minds of Men? |
A53720 | What Conclusion as to our Practice and Obedience do we hence educe? |
A53720 | What Impression doth this make upon our Souls? |
A53720 | What Lowliness becomes then who dwell in Houses of Clay, whose Foundation is in the Dust, and who are crushed before the Moth? |
A53720 | What advantage shall they have by a complyance with them? |
A53720 | What can be spoken more to the Derogation of it? |
A53720 | What did he foresee that we would doe of our selves more than others, if he wrought not in us by his effectual Grace? |
A53720 | What did he see in us, to move him so to choose us, nothing but Sin and Misery? |
A53720 | What else can any one learn from them concerning the one or the other? |
A53720 | What else could any Man living imagine? |
A53720 | What if we doe comply with the Command, and become holy? |
A53720 | What is his distinct Testimony in this Matter? |
A53720 | What pretence then could there be for any to say that Christ was in such a place? |
A53720 | What shall we do? |
A53720 | What shall we say then, is there no sincere Holiness where such Decayes are found? |
A53720 | What then is the distinct Testimony that is ascribed unto him? |
A53720 | What then shall we say, that he is not a Person, but only the Power of God? |
A53720 | What then will he do for them? |
A53720 | What therefore is incumbent on us with respect thereunto, that we may know we have an Interest in this single Security against final Apostasie? |
A53720 | When was this Wind Created? |
A53720 | Whence doth that Blessedness arise, and wherein doth it consist? |
A53720 | Whence then doth it come to pass that the Minds of Men should be filled and possessed with enmity against him? |
A53720 | Where is it said that all the Gifts of the Holy Ghost do constitute or make up one Holy Ghost? |
A53720 | Where is it said, that a Man is Born again, or Begotten a- new by himself? |
A53720 | Where then is the Glory of his Immutability, of his Essential Holiness, of the absolute Rectitude of his Nature and Will? |
A53720 | Where then shall we in this Condition cast Anchor? |
A53720 | Wherewith shall I come before the Lord, and bow my self before the High God? |
A53720 | Whither shall I go from thy Spirit? |
A53720 | Who art thou, saith he, O great Mountain? |
A53720 | Who can merit by doing his duty? |
A53720 | Who hath directed the Spirit of the Lord, or being his Counsellor hath taught him? |
A53720 | Who or what then is intended by that Pronoun Me? |
A53720 | Who will be so unwise as to attempt that which he hath no strength to accomplish? |
A53720 | Why are we so slow, so Negligent in the pursuit of our principal Interest and Happiness? |
A53720 | Why do they not say unto them, you believe in Christ, you believe in the Gospel; and thereon expose them to Derision? |
A53720 | Why do we suffer every thing, why do we suffer any thing to divert our Minds from, or retard our Endeavours in this Design? |
A53720 | Why doe we weary our selves about other things? |
A53720 | Why else are they said to be dead? |
A53720 | Why will they not speak of the things of God in Words that the Holy Ghost teacheth? |
A53720 | Will he be able hereon to discharge this Duty, so as that sin may dye, and his soul may live? |
A53720 | Will he make them all Kings or Emperours in the World? |
A53720 | Will he then despise their Complaints, and their bemoaning of themselves before him? |
A53720 | Will the Lord be pleased with Thousands of Rams, or with ten Thousands of Rivers of Oyl? |
A53720 | Will this render those Expressions concerning him proper? |
A53720 | With what Appearances, what Out- sides of things are most men satisfied? |
A53720 | Yea who is there that indeed doth naturally think otherwise? |
A53720 | You name the Name of Christ, profess an Interest in him, and expect Salvation by him; which Way will you apply your selves unto him? |
A53720 | but the Spirit of Christ because he is not so, but only treateth of him? |
A53720 | did he choose them to be his own peculiar, to distinguish them as his from all the residue of Mankind? |
A53720 | doth it not appear rather to be Retrograde and under a constant Decay? |
A53720 | from which of his Offices do you expect Advantage? |
A53720 | how may we be brought into the actual possession of it? |
A53720 | if we have no such sufficiency, to what purpose should we set about the thinking or doing of any thing that is good? |
A53720 | in what sence is our Holiness proposed as the Design of God in Election? |
A53720 | is it our Conformity from thence unto him in his Holiness? |
A53720 | is it our being Holy in all Manner of Holiness, because God is holy? |
A53720 | no Watchfulness, no Diligence required of us? |
A53720 | numquid in Aqua signamur sicut in Spiritu? |
A53720 | or whither shall I flee from thy presence? |
A53720 | quia non obeditur imperiis quibus perniciose obediretur? |
A53720 | shall I come before him with Burnt- Offerings, with Calves of a year old? |
A53720 | that any one should ever read the Bible, or once consider what he is, and with whom he hath to doe, and to be ignorant of this Duty? |
A53720 | was it not because that was an Ordinance of God, which by his Almighty Power he made effectual unto that purpose? |
A53720 | what are the perishing Profits, Pleasures, and Satisfactions by them, which this World can afford? |
A53720 | what is it, not to refuse the Grace of Conversion, but to comply with it? |
A53720 | whither shall we betake our selves for Quietness and Repose? |
A53720 | why are they so afraid of the Words and Expressions of the Scripture? |
A53720 | why doe we spend our Labour in vain, and our Strength for that which is not bread? |
A53720 | will he not avenge them of that Enemy, and that speedily? |
A53720 | — Sed qualiter hoc se ● tiri potest cum ita scribitur;& Sanctus est super eum Spiritus Domini& ambulans prophetabat? |
A53678 | ( 1) Why God gave this Covenant which was so insufficient unto this great End? |
A53678 | ( 2) How then did any of the People yield Obedience unto God, if the Covenant exhibited no Aid nor Assistance unto it? |
A53678 | ( 2) What was the especial End and Design which he had therein, towards the Heirs of Promise? |
A53678 | 22. was it not so to look on a woman to Lust after her, or were such unclean desires ever innocent? |
A53678 | 25, 26: how had he been meet to attempt or effect this work, had not he himself been every way undefiled? |
A53678 | All those Priests being removed, how shall we do now to draw nigh unto God, without such a conduct, such a countenance? |
A53678 | And did not the whole Church prove victorious in the End? |
A53678 | And had he dealt so with all mankind, who could say unto him, what dost thou? |
A53678 | And how can a poor sinful Mortal man, such as are the best of their Priests; pretend to offer the same Sacrifice unto God? |
A53678 | And how can this be in us, unless we have a good perswasion concerning our mutual Interest and In- being in Christ? |
A53678 | And how come we to inherit it? |
A53678 | And how do we become Heirs of this Inheritance? |
A53678 | And how shall they Preach except they be sent? |
A53678 | And how shall they believe in him, of whom they have not heard? |
A53678 | And how shall they hear without a Preacher? |
A53678 | And if it be so, what use is there of the Mediation and Intercession of Jesus Christ? |
A53678 | And if lying unto the Holy Ghost is so great a sin, what is it to make the Holy Ghost a Liar? |
A53678 | And is it not an unspeakable encouragement thereunto, that God hath confirmed him in that office by his solemn Oath unto him? |
A53678 | And is it not just and equal that we should wholly submit in our work unto his Will, and rest in his Pleasure? |
A53678 | And shall his Servants in the work of the Gospel suppose themselves debased, to receive Respect and Honour from the same Principle? |
A53678 | And shall we think that God will leave any other of his Promises unaccomplished? |
A53678 | And the enquiry is, which of these the Apostle hath respect unto? |
A53678 | And then, How it did evidence it self so to be, as they saw it? |
A53678 | And unto the first Enquiry, Unto what end it served? |
A53678 | And was it from their own wisdom and courage that they were so preserved? |
A53678 | And what Blood must this be? |
A53678 | And what can this do for the real Expiating of the sins of our souls? |
A53678 | And what could not this offering make Attonement for? |
A53678 | And what doth the Law do? |
A53678 | And what greater despite and wrong could be done unto him, then to question his truth and the veracity of his testimony? |
A53678 | And what greater security can they have hereof, than the Interest and Glory which this their High Priest hath in Heaven? |
A53678 | And what is it that is within this Vail? |
A53678 | And what is the Reason or Foundation hereof? |
A53678 | And what is the Reason, why men should so readily close with other means, other Mediators of Intercession to go to God by them? |
A53678 | And what is the final Issue whereinto all these things do come? |
A53678 | And what is there remaining that can encourage us in and unto Duties of Obedience? |
A53678 | And what more Honourable Issue could it come unto? |
A53678 | And what perfection can be expected by such a Priesthood where the Priests were obliged continually to offer for their own sins? |
A53678 | And what perfection could be comprized in an everlasting Rotation of sins and sacrifices? |
A53678 | And what should be the condition of this grace here promised of the pardon of sin? |
A53678 | And what was it( saith the Apostle) that was declared, manifested and known thereby? |
A53678 | And what will he not do for us, who in the height of his Glory is not ashamed to be esteemed our Forerunner? |
A53678 | And whether he make or marr a Vessel, who shall say unto him, What doest thou? |
A53678 | And who but God can ordain himself to be our Reward? |
A53678 | And who knows but this may have the same blessing accompanying of it? |
A53678 | And who was meet to tender it unto him, but the man that was his Fellow, who gave efficacy unto his oblation by the dignity of his Person? |
A53678 | And why should they not? |
A53678 | And why should we despond under the same Trials? |
A53678 | And( 2) in what manner did he teach? |
A53678 | And( 3) what did he so declare unto them, or instruct them in? |
A53678 | And( 4) How did he dispense the Word unto them? |
A53678 | And( 5) When, or at what season did he thus lay out himself in the discharge of this Duty? |
A53678 | And( 6) in what outward condition was he, and with what frame of Spirit did he attend his work? |
A53678 | Are they Priests in Heaven for ever after the Order of Melchisedec? |
A53678 | Are they offered unto God for that end? |
A53678 | Are they sprinkled on these things for their Purification? |
A53678 | Are we not in his hands, as Clay in the hands of the Potter? |
A53678 | Art thou he who is to come? |
A53678 | Art thou he who is to come? |
A53678 | But did any of them miscarry? |
A53678 | But how came Melchisedec to be thus Great? |
A53678 | But how comes this Son of God to be concerned herein? |
A53678 | But how could a Mortal Man come into the World without Father or Mother? |
A53678 | But how is this done, how is their part acted? |
A53678 | But how shall men call on him in whom they have not believed? |
A53678 | But if it be so, why do we hear the bleating of another sort of Cattel? |
A53678 | But if this also as it is in this case be rejected and despised, what remains to set any Bounds unto the Lusts of men? |
A53678 | But if we are always anxious and solicitous about what we do, whether it be accepted with God or no; how do we serve him without fear? |
A53678 | But is this all which we shall have from him or by him? |
A53678 | But it may be enquired, why, if the Law made nothing perfect, it was instituted or given by God himself? |
A53678 | But what do men think of the long- suffering before described? |
A53678 | But what do the Saints themselves as Members of this Body? |
A53678 | But what do we imagine? |
A53678 | But what if Abraham was thus Blessed by Melchisedec, doth this prove that he was less than he by whom he was Blessed? |
A53678 | But what is all this to us? |
A53678 | But what is it that should enduce them hereunto? |
A53678 | But what is this unto the Glory of our High Priest? |
A53678 | But what need was there of two such things? |
A53678 | But what now is become of these Fathers, with all their great Promises and Preachments upon them? |
A53678 | But what shall he say who comes after the King? |
A53678 | But what then shall become of the former? |
A53678 | But whence then was it of necessity that he must have somewhat to offer unto God as our Priest, that is, for us? |
A53678 | But where then would lie the advantage of the Church in his Exaltation, which the Apostle designs in an especial manner to demonstrate? |
A53678 | But whereas that punishment was Death without Mercy, wherein could this exceed it? |
A53678 | But wherefore did the Law make such Priests, men, meer men, that had infirmity, subject to sin and death, so as to put an end unto their Office? |
A53678 | But who can look into, who can comprehend the Glories of those Heavenly Administrations? |
A53678 | But who is able to build him an house, seeing the heaven, and heaven of heavens can not contain him? |
A53678 | But who would not think that Gods Declaration thereof by the way of Promise, were every way sufficient thereunto? |
A53678 | But why doth the Apostle put an Emphasis upon this, that by these things it was impossible that God should lye, or deceive? |
A53678 | Can they say that from the first day of their coming into their Diocesses or Dignities, or Parishes or Places, they have thus behaved themselves? |
A53678 | Could any man enjoy a moments peace, if he supposed that in his extremity the High Priest might dye? |
A53678 | Cur non dixerit, tantò praestantioris foederis factus est sacerdos Jesus? |
A53678 | Did they overcome meerly by their own Blood? |
A53678 | Do they make Attonement for Sin? |
A53678 | Do we meet with Troubles, Trials, Difficulties, Temptations and Distresses; hath not the Church done so in former Ages? |
A53678 | Do we not think that they are all of them required of us, according unto our measure, and the extent of our employment? |
A53678 | Do we then make void the Law through Faith? |
A53678 | For he offered but once, and at one time; Where then did he thus offer himself and when? |
A53678 | For how can we conceive that the Lord Christ offered for his own infirmities, that is, his sorrows, sufferings, and obnoxiousness unto death? |
A53678 | For how shall he be Tender Compassionate, Careful towards the Souls of others, who knows no Reason why he should be so towards his own? |
A53678 | For if God did never approve of them, never delight in them; unto what end were they Ordained? |
A53678 | For if God should mark Iniquities according unto the Law, who should stand? |
A53678 | For if it will never make Men perfect, to what end doth it serve, or what must do so in the room thereof? |
A53678 | For of him and through him, and to him are all things, to whom be Glory for ever, Amen? |
A53678 | For otherwise unto what end serves the promise and covenant promised? |
A53678 | For unto what purpose should a new Priest of another Order be raised up, to do that which was done before? |
A53678 | For what became of all these Dedicated things after the death of Melchisedec? |
A53678 | For what benefit can any receive from that whose nature and properties he is unacquainted withall? |
A53678 | For what can we properly merit at his hands, whose precedent Bounty we come infinitely short of answering or satisfying, in all that we can do? |
A53678 | For what could any reasonably require further to give them sufficient ground of assurance? |
A53678 | For what could the wisdom of men do in the prefiguration of that mystery, which they had no comprehension of? |
A53678 | For what could they desire more in Reference thereunto, than to enjoy such a gracious earnest of his powerful presence among them? |
A53678 | For what could they require further? |
A53678 | For what did the High Priest do, after he had offered the Anniversary Sacrifice of Expiation unto God? |
A53678 | For what is it possible that things of that kind and nature, which is here described, can contribute unto these ends? |
A53678 | For what is the Offering of real Bread and Wine, and no more, unto the Offering of the Body and Soul of Jesus Christ, under the appearance of them? |
A53678 | For what should it oblige Men unto? |
A53678 | For where is the Glory of the Righteousness or Holiness of God, if impenitent Sinners may be accepted with him? |
A53678 | For who else but God can write the Divine Law in our hearts, and pardon all our sins? |
A53678 | For who hath known the mind of the Lord, or who hath been his Counsellor? |
A53678 | For who was it that called them to these Duties, and on what account? |
A53678 | From whom should now the promised Seed be expected to proceed and spring? |
A53678 | Had he this Design? |
A53678 | Have others more Power in these things than he, so as it is adviseable on that Account to make our Application unto them? |
A53678 | Have they so taught, so preached, so warned, and that with Tears, night and day all sorts of persons, whom they suppose themselves to relate unto? |
A53678 | He was offered 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 to bear the sins of many; When did he do it? |
A53678 | Hence are those cries of such Persons; what shall we do to be saved? |
A53678 | Hereon it might be well enquired, To what purpose then were they appointed? |
A53678 | Hereon, the Enquiry will be, how these things are said to be purified? |
A53678 | How did he do it? |
A53678 | How did they admire the condescension of God of old, in his dwelling in the Tabernacle and Temple by the glorious signs of his presence? |
A53678 | How did this day approach? |
A53678 | How eminent was the divine wisdom of the Holy Ghost, in the structure and order of this Tabernacle? |
A53678 | How express, how multiplyed are his Commands for good works, and our abounding in them? |
A53678 | How glorious art thou in the ways of thy grace towards poor sinful Creatures, who had destroyed themselves? |
A53678 | How glorious should this be in our eyes? |
A53678 | How innumerable are the Temptations which every individual Believer is exposed unto, each of them in its own nature ruinous and pernitious? |
A53678 | How is Christ then made a Priest according to the Power of an endless Life? |
A53678 | How is it that you discern not the Signs of the times? |
A53678 | How it did approach? |
A53678 | How many things have we had made Sacred which never had warranty from any Institution of God? |
A53678 | How many times were that whole people, the posterity of Abraham, at the very brink of Destruction? |
A53678 | How shall not the Administration of the Spirit be rather Glorious? |
A53678 | How shall they escape who neglect so great Salvation? |
A53678 | How shall we escape if we neglect so great Salvation? |
A53678 | How shall we escape if we neglect so great Salvation? |
A53678 | How then was this Declaration made, how came it to be known? |
A53678 | How unquestionable, how perfect must the Atonement be that was thus made, how glorious the Redemption that was procured thereby? |
A53678 | How unspeakable are our Obligations unto Faith and Love? |
A53678 | How was it with mankind in this matter? |
A53678 | I confess I can not but admire to think, what some men conceive concerning him or themselves? |
A53678 | I say then have they stumbled, that they should fall? |
A53678 | If God will have some of the Sons of Abraham to pay Tithes, and some to receive them, is there any Ground of Complaint? |
A53678 | If now he should not do so, would he not be unrighteous, must he not deny himself, and not remember his Promise? |
A53678 | If that note of negations be allowed, the words are to be read by way of Interrogation; would they not have ceased to be offered? |
A53678 | If then it be demanded, When God thus sware unto Christ? |
A53678 | If they could at any time have perfected the Worshippers, they would have ceased to be offered; for unto what end should that continuance serve? |
A53678 | Is it because he was Originally in himself, more Wise and Honourable than any of the Sons of Men? |
A53678 | Is it not God and that according unto the Tenour of the Covenant of Grace? |
A53678 | Is it not manifest that this Priesthood and these sacrifices, could never of themselves expiate sin, nor make perfect them that came to God by them? |
A53678 | Is it not probable that they were oft- times ready to say, where is the Promise of his coming? |
A53678 | Is it not reasonable it should be so, after all the hardships and miseries which he, being the Son of God, underwent in this world? |
A53678 | Is it not therefore highly incumbent on them, to satisfie themselves herein that Christ is able to save them in the exercise of this Office? |
A53678 | Is it not to give us our Trial in the use of means as to what shall be our future condition? |
A53678 | Is it that he attained this Dignity and Greatness, by his own Industry and Endeavours? |
A53678 | Is not this to suppose him severe, angry, always displeased, ready to take advantage, one whom nothing will satisfie? |
A53678 | Is the Law then against the Promises of God? |
A53678 | Is there another way for us to go to Heaven than what was prescribed unto the Primitive Believers? |
A53678 | It is said if Christ was God himself, how could he offer himself unto God? |
A53678 | It will be said then, Unto what end did they serve? |
A53678 | Lift up your heads, know your Salvation is nigh at hand; what manner of persons ought we to be? |
A53678 | Man that is Born of a Woman is the Description of every Man; what therefore can be intended? |
A53678 | May he not do with his own what he pleaseth? |
A53678 | May not God do what he will with his own? |
A53678 | Must he not needs be absolutely prevalent in all he ayms at? |
A53678 | No, by no means, he offered not himself on the Earth; how then did he offer for himself on the earth? |
A53678 | O Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy Name in all the Earth? |
A53678 | Of what sort are they whom we see seduced every day? |
A53678 | Of whom shall he be thus seen? |
A53678 | One view of the Glory of this Mystery, how satisfactory is it unto the souls of Believers? |
A53678 | Or are they the Kings or Prophets of the Church: or under what Name or Title is this Power intrusted with them? |
A53678 | Or where is any one word spoken of their Power or Interest in Heaven unto that Purpose? |
A53678 | Our Fathers where are they? |
A53678 | Shall we continue in Sin, saith our Apostle, that Grace may abound? |
A53678 | So Solomon expressed it in his Prayer at the dedication of the Temple, But will God indeed dwell on the earth? |
A53678 | That he will not in due time ingage his omnipotent Power and infinite Wisdom in the discharge of his Truth and Faithfulness? |
A53678 | That the degree of its exceeding that punishment is inexpressible: Of how much sorer? |
A53678 | The Promise being given, there seems to have been no need of it, why then was it added to it at that season? |
A53678 | The Second is, how or in what sence one may be said to do any thing in another, which may be reckoned or imputed unto him? |
A53678 | The Syriack Translation proposeth these words in the way of an Interrogation, Will you again lay another Foundation? |
A53678 | The evidence of the inference which he makes; for this is such as he referrs it unto themselves to judge upon, suppose ye- shall be thought worthy? |
A53678 | The first whereof is, whether Christ himself may not as well as Levi be said to pay Tithes in Abraham, as being in his Loyns? |
A53678 | Then he offered himself twice? |
A53678 | They are not such things as are too earnestly to be desired, for who knows what will be the end of them? |
A53678 | This is expressed in answer unto that enquiry of the blessed Virgin, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man? |
A53678 | To abound expresseth the largest comprehensible Measures and Degrees; But that which doth more than abound, who can conceive? |
A53678 | To what end serve these Sacrifices, if they could not take away Sin? |
A53678 | To what purpose then should there be any more Offerings for Sin? |
A53678 | To whom shall he thus appear? |
A53678 | Unto what end did they serve? |
A53678 | VVas it not he who hath Mercy on whom he will have Mercy, and is Gracious unto whom he will be Gracious? |
A53678 | Was any one true Believer lost for ever? |
A53678 | Was this spirit in our Apostle? |
A53678 | We shall but foolishly deceive our selves with such Imaginations? |
A53678 | Were our cause intrusted in any other hand; what security could we have that it should not miscarry? |
A53678 | What Evidence and Token of this great work is there given unto the World? |
A53678 | What Love, what Grace, what Mercy may we not expect from him? |
A53678 | What Provision of Instruction for the present and future use of the Church, was laid up and stored in them? |
A53678 | What but infinite wisdom and praescience could order things so in their typical signification? |
A53678 | What could not this Priest prevail for in his Interposition on our behalf? |
A53678 | What day it is, that is intended? |
A53678 | What do we think of those days wherein Prisons, Tortures, Swords and Flames were the Portion of the Church all the world over? |
A53678 | What do you think in your own hearts will be the Judgment of God concerning these sinners? |
A53678 | What else means their Prohibition of the People from reading the Scripture in a Language they understand? |
A53678 | What heart can conceive, what tongue can express the Wisdom, Grace and Love that is contained therein? |
A53678 | What if God will take this way of procedure, and give no reason of it? |
A53678 | What injury is done him by Apostates from the Gospel? |
A53678 | What is it to hold fast this profession? |
A53678 | What is it to serve the living God? |
A53678 | What is meant by holding it fast? |
A53678 | What is meant by the Profession of our Faith? |
A53678 | What is the Effect of this fiery indignation against those adversaries? |
A53678 | What is this fire? |
A53678 | What mean those other Priests and reiterated Sacrifices which make up the Worship of the Church of Rome? |
A53678 | What shall be the end of them who obey not the Gospel? |
A53678 | What shall we render unto him? |
A53678 | What sin, or whose sins could it not expiate? |
A53678 | What to hold it fast without wavering? |
A53678 | What was the condition with the Faith of the best of men when the Lord Christ was in the Grave? |
A53678 | What will some say, to depend on the Wills and Love of the People there is nothing more base and unworthy? |
A53678 | When men said unto David, Where is now thy God? |
A53678 | When their thoughts are thus limited unto Christ alone, their next enquiry is, how shall this man save us? |
A53678 | Where is it said of any Saints or Angels, or all of them together, that they are able to save to the utmost all that come to God by them? |
A53678 | Where is the Equality, Equity, and Righteousness if it were otherwise? |
A53678 | Where is the promise of his coming? |
A53678 | Where then and when did he offer for himself? |
A53678 | Wherefore then serveth the Law? |
A53678 | Wherein then doth this Glory consist? |
A53678 | Whether this Commination may be extended to all Ages, Times, and Seasons? |
A53678 | Who can conceive that Christ by his Death, should procure the Agreement between God and him, that he should dye? |
A53678 | Who can expect that he should any longer condescend unto Office and Duty? |
A53678 | Who can express or limit the Sovereignty of God over his Creatures? |
A53678 | Who can expresse the opposition that continues to be made unto this work of compleating the Salvation of Believers? |
A53678 | Who made the most Glorious Apostle of the first and fiercest Persecutor? |
A53678 | Who now can see any beauty, any glory in the Old Temple Administrations should they be revived? |
A53678 | Who would venture a suprizal unto his own soul in such a condition? |
A53678 | Why did he oblige the People unto their observance? |
A53678 | Why look ye so on us, as though by our own Power and Holiness we made this man walk? |
A53678 | Why should God look after such Fugitives any more? |
A53678 | Why then, it will be said, did God appoint and ordain them? |
A53678 | Will God indeed dwell on the earth? |
A53678 | Will I eat the flesh of Bulls, or drink the blood of Goats? |
A53678 | Will they not rest in the Oath of God, who in doubtful cases do and will acquiesce in the Oaths of men? |
A53678 | Wilt thou know, or knowest thou not, O vain man, that Faith without works is dead? |
A53678 | Yea, but what if all the Honour that Jesus Christ himself hath, or accepts from his People, proceeds from their Wills and Affections? |
A53678 | Yet is this here expresly assigned unto his Blood; How much more shall the Blood of Christ purge your Consciences from dead works? |
A53678 | and hath he not therein promised to accept their Persons and their Duties by Jesus Christ? |
A53678 | and the Prophets do they Live for ever? |
A53678 | and what is this indignation of it? |
A53678 | are not Faith and they equally Acts of Obedience in us? |
A53678 | are not Faith and they equally required by the Gospel? |
A53678 | at least in the same kind, though Faith on some considerations may have the pre- eminence? |
A53678 | behold, the heaven, and heaven of heavens can not contain thee: how much less this house that I have builded? |
A53678 | do we make void the Law by Faith? |
A53678 | doth not God require perfect Righteousness of us? |
A53678 | how unsearchable are his Judgements, and his Ways past finding out? |
A53678 | or that, whereas both concur unto the doing of Good or Evil, the Soul only should be rewarded or punished? |
A53678 | or were delivered by their own Power? |
A53678 | or what is become of thy Religion and Profession, thy pretended Trust in God? |
A53678 | or whether it were confined unto the present state of the Hebrews, with the circumstances they were in? |
A53678 | the Righteousness which the Law originally prescribed? |
A53678 | what Power is able to conflict and conquer the remaining strength of Sin, the opposition of Sathan and the World? |
A53678 | what benefit in the promises of the Covenant? |
A53678 | what created Understanding could ever have raised it self unto a thought, that the Eternal Word should be made Flesh? |
A53678 | what is the duty of the Church concerning such an one? |
A53678 | what way could be more suited unto their Peace and Consolation? |
A53678 | whence then can any just cause of despondence in any Trials or Temptations arise? |
A53678 | who am I then, that I should build him an house, save onely to burn sacrifice before him? |
A53678 | who are we that we should dispute against God? |

A53737 | 26? |
A53737 | Again, What though we received the Gospell from Rome? |
A53737 | An passim sequerer corvum? |
A53737 | And 1. who taught you to make your apprehensions the measure of other mens faith and practice? |
A53737 | And Cui Bono? |
A53737 | And are you not a fair Advocate for your Cause, and well meet for the reproving of others for not consenting unto them? |
A53737 | And are you, like Sampson, content to pull down the house that must fall upon your selves also, so that you may stifle Protestants with its sall? |
A53737 | And do not you your self know all this to be true? |
A53737 | And do you find so much sweetness in, Delus an Virtus? |
A53737 | And do you not speak to this purpose in twenty other places? |
A53737 | And do you think indeed that this Episcopacy of Peter, distinct from his Apostleship, is a meet stone to be layed in the foundation of faith? |
A53737 | And do you think meet to talk at this rate? |
A53737 | And hath not the Papacy felt the fruits and effects of these Principles, in the writings of Kings, Princes, Noblemen, and Gentlemen, of all sorts? |
A53737 | And he sayes of himself that he was 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, doth he intend that he was Christs Sacrificer? |
A53737 | And if they are absolutely incorporeal and invisible, how can an Image be made of them? |
A53737 | And is it ingenuous to insist on contrary insinuations? |
A53737 | And is it not a fine business to talk of seeing the face of God, which shone forth in Christ, in a carved image or a painted figure? |
A53737 | And is it not hence evident that all the power which you grant unto Kings, is meerly precarious, which they hold of your Pope as Tenants at will? |
A53737 | And is it not plain from hence, that you exclude the Lord Christ from being that head of his Church which he was in former dayes? |
A53737 | And is not this a brave business to impose on the Consciences of all men, when you know not your selves what it is that you would so impose? |
A53737 | And is there not still the same reason for it as there was at first? |
A53737 | And to whom do you speak? |
A53737 | And was the Bible, Psalms, or Christian Lyturgie then put into Vulgar Tongues, when those they were first written in, ceased to be Vulgar? |
A53737 | And we ask you what Church you mean, and how far you intend that it is infallible? |
A53737 | And what are you, or what have you done for them that you should at once expect such a profuse largeness at their hands? |
A53737 | And what course do you your self proceed in? |
A53737 | And what do you think of this Doctrine and Practise of your Church? |
A53737 | And what ensued hereupon in the Church its self? |
A53737 | And what is all this to your Images that give us the shape and form of a man, and of what individual person neither you nor we know? |
A53737 | And what is it that you would prove hereby? |
A53737 | And what was the reason of their so doing? |
A53737 | And what was the success of this zeal? |
A53737 | And what way would you proceed by for his Conviction? |
A53737 | And what were the Miracles themselves they boasted of? |
A53737 | And what will you then get by your trumphing over us? |
A53737 | And whether he hath not a right even to destroy Kings themselves, who will not be his Executioners in destroying of others? |
A53737 | And who gave you leave to suppose the only thing in Question between us, and to use it as a medium to educe your Conclusion from? |
A53737 | And who knows not that Syria and Assyria were several Kingdoms, as likewise were the Languages? |
A53737 | And why is not the succession of an Apostle necessary as well as of such a Bishop as you fancie? |
A53737 | And why is this the safest course? |
A53737 | And why may I not plead the Cause of Protestancy, against that imputation of demeric which you heap upon it? |
A53737 | And will you take with you the consent of the Ancients? |
A53737 | Are Idolatry and Heresie the same? |
A53737 | Are not all men naturally blind in the things of God? |
A53737 | Are not many prepossessed with prejudices, traditions, customes and usages against the Truth? |
A53737 | Are not the Arguments you intend, indeed rather for the Eucharist then against it? |
A53737 | Are not these your words? |
A53737 | Are these the Principles of the Church of Rome, or of that of England? |
A53737 | Are these the expressions of Christians, or Pagans? |
A53737 | Are they not these? |
A53737 | Are you not ashamed to boast that you have all Antiquity for your sense and meaning? |
A53737 | Besides do not Lusts, Corruptions, Carnall Interests, and Respect unto Worldly things bear sway sin the minds of many that profess Christian Religion? |
A53737 | But Sir, is this to be in earnest or jest? |
A53737 | But Sir, pray what serves the Scripture for all this while? |
A53737 | But are you not ashamed of this trifling? |
A53737 | But are you of the same mind? |
A53737 | But have these noisome Heresies of your Church, think you, passed without controll? |
A53737 | But how comes this about? |
A53737 | But how do you prove that I fell into such a mistake? |
A53737 | But if any should say, Why do our images work no miracles? |
A53737 | But must I therefore be Celsus? |
A53737 | But of what sort, by whom used, to what end? |
A53737 | But suppose that Peter was thus a Prince, Monarch, Apostle, Bishop, that is, a Catholick, Particular Officer, What is that to you? |
A53737 | But that we may proceed; Let us suppose this also, that Peter was at Rome, and preached the Gospel there, What will thence follow unto your advantage? |
A53737 | But to what purpose? |
A53737 | But what do you mean by the conceived substance of Gods Will? |
A53737 | But what do you mean that you no where formally express it? |
A53737 | But what if there be nothing of all this in the pretended menaces? |
A53737 | But what is it that you would from hence conclude? |
A53737 | But what is that to your purpose? |
A53737 | But what need we stay in the confutation of this sigment? |
A53737 | But what now is the End in all this heap of things which you would have mistaken for Reasons, that you aym at? |
A53737 | But what of all this? |
A53737 | But what of all this? |
A53737 | But what say you to Marcellinus? |
A53737 | But where did you ever read any Arguments of ours against the Eucharist? |
A53737 | But who I pray told you that the ● e was the same resason of all the Commands of the 〈 ◊ 〉 Table? |
A53737 | But who gave you warrant or leave so to set them? |
A53737 | But who told you so? |
A53737 | But who told you that your images represent the things mentioned by the Apostle? |
A53737 | But why do you call this a thing of danger only? |
A53737 | But why so I pray? |
A53737 | But why so I pray? |
A53737 | But why so? |
A53737 | But why so? |
A53737 | But you add; Is the picture made by the spectators imagination to represent this or that thing, or the imagination rather guided to it by the picture? |
A53737 | But you adde, that making a distinction of the intrinsick acceptability of works, you say as I say: What is that I pray? |
A53737 | But you speak of the single misdemeanour in faith; but who gave you leave so to restrain your enquiry? |
A53737 | But, why is not the Scripture able to settle men in unquestionable Truth? |
A53737 | But, why then do not all believe the Gospell? |
A53737 | Can none of them inform us what the Customs of your Church are? |
A53737 | Can possibly any man break forth into an higher reflection upon the Wisdom and Love of the Holy God? |
A53737 | Can such a blasphemous thought enter into your heart? |
A53737 | Could I now take any other course to confute these false and impious Assertions, then what I did in the Animadversions? |
A53737 | Did Celsus any such thing to such an end? |
A53737 | Did Elijah deride the Temple at Jerusalem, when he opposed the Priests of Baal? |
A53737 | Did I say that God commanded men to steal? |
A53737 | Did I, doth any Protestant deny, that Gentlemen may have? |
A53737 | Did Peter thus feed the sheep of Christ? |
A53737 | Did S t Peter himself do it? |
A53737 | Did ever any of the Fathers of old, or any in the world before your selves, take this course to plead their interests in any thing they professed? |
A53737 | Did never any man inform you, that one end of preaching the word was to regenerate the whole souls of men, and to beget them anew unto God? |
A53737 | Did not the Saxons do so in Brittany the Francks in Gaule, the Goths and Longobards in Italy, the Vandals in Africk, the Huns in Bannonia? |
A53737 | Did not your self make the calling over of these things necessary, by crying out against Protestants, for want of moderation? |
A53737 | Did the Pope first find it out? |
A53737 | Did they not do so? |
A53737 | Did this practise escape uncontrolled? |
A53737 | Did those that came from Rome teach them to do that which they judged their duty not to do? |
A53737 | Did you never read of any opposition made in former dayes unto your pretended Papal Power? |
A53737 | Do I compare you with Celsus, or do I make you to be Celsus? |
A53737 | Do I not direct you unto Authors of unquestionable credit complaining of the things which I report from them? |
A53737 | Do I say any thing but what the stories of all Ages, and the Experience of Christendome do proclaim? |
A53737 | Do any men in their wits use to say this fall was by Heresie, though all agree it was by Idolatry? |
A53737 | Do not the best of men know only in part? |
A53737 | Do not the same Laws which assert the order you mention, exclude that which you would introduce? |
A53737 | Do we deny they ought to improve their reason, in being conversant about it? |
A53737 | Do we disallow or forbid them any means, that may tend to their furtherance in the knowledge and profession of Religion? |
A53737 | Do we hinder or disswade them from any Studies, or the use of Books, that may encrease their knowledge, and improve their reason? |
A53737 | Do we not press them unto these things, as their principall duty in this world? |
A53737 | Do we not say, they ought to have their sense in Religion, and their senses exercised therein? |
A53737 | Do you abide in the same faith? |
A53737 | Do you believe that they give you the shape and likeness of Angels? |
A53737 | Do you consider what you say? |
A53737 | Do you intend any other likeness or similitude? |
A53737 | Do you know whose Objections these are, and by whom they have been lately mannaged? |
A53737 | Do you not ayme at our quiet submission to the determinations of the Church or Pope in all matters of Religion? |
A53737 | Do you not see the fondness of your pretension? |
A53737 | Do you see from whence proceeded all the priviledges of the Roman throne? |
A53737 | Do you see what a Quagmire you are building upon? |
A53737 | Do you think a man can easily commence per saltum, from the imaginary Principality of Peter unto the Infallibility of the present Pope of Rome? |
A53737 | Do you think our condition worse than theirs? |
A53737 | Do you think that all things were well enough amongst them, and that in all things their wayes pleased God? |
A53737 | Do you think the King hath any An ● ority vested in him as King in Ecclesiastical affairs, and over Ecclesiastical Persons? |
A53737 | Do you think to relieve them from the guilt of Idolatry by a company of distinctions, which neither they nor you understand? |
A53737 | Doth Fiat Lux say, you lay the cause of all the troubles, disorders, tumults, warres within the Nations of Europe upon Protestants? |
A53737 | Doth he mention any of these, but such as your Church hath made use of, for the destruction of Protestants? |
A53737 | Doth he succeed him in his power of working Miracles? |
A53737 | Doth he succeed him in the Doctrine that he taught? |
A53737 | Doth he succeed him in the manner of his Call to his Office? |
A53737 | Doth he succeed him in the way and manner of his Personal Discharge of his Office and imployment? |
A53737 | Doth he succeed him in the way and manner of his exercising his Care and Authority towards the Churches of Christ? |
A53737 | Doth not the experience of all Ages, of all places in the world render your Sophistry contemptible? |
A53737 | Doth not your Son Fiat wear this livery? |
A53737 | Estne haec tunica filii tui? |
A53737 | First you ask, What love of Christs dictates, what commission of Christ allows you to choose and reject at your own pleasure? |
A53737 | For how should you do so; shall man be like unto God, or equall unto him? |
A53737 | For to what purpose should any one spend time to debate things, with men absurd and unreasonable, and who will affirm that it is midnight at noon day? |
A53737 | For where, I pray you, lyes its defect? |
A53737 | For why must that needs be the notion of these termes in the division you made, that you now express? |
A53737 | Fur es ait Pedo; Pedius quid? |
A53737 | Had you lost your Fiat, that you make such an outcry after that which in a moment he could have supplyed you withall? |
A53737 | Hath it been opposed, judged, and condemned, or no? |
A53737 | Have you a dispensation to say what you please for the promotion of the Catholick Cause? |
A53737 | Have you not declared your self unto this purpose in your Fiat? |
A53737 | Have you not told us in your Fiat that it is the Church or Pope of Rome? |
A53737 | He asked them saying, Will you also go away? |
A53737 | Hei mihi qualis? |
A53737 | How can any man manifest that he doth any thing by the Commission of another, but by his producing and manifesting his Commission to be his? |
A53737 | How could he be obliged to pass up and down the world in pursuit of his Commission of preaching the Gospel unto all Nations? |
A53737 | How did they succeed afterwards? |
A53737 | How shall it do it? |
A53737 | How should they come in your apprehension to quarrel about that which as you suppose and contend, was somewhile before determined? |
A53737 | How, by what means, from whom should we learn the sense of your Church, if not from your Council of Trent, and such mighty Champions of it? |
A53737 | I adde also, Did not the Gospel come from another place to Rome, as well as to us, or, was it first preached there? |
A53737 | If he speak in Latine, I should know what he sayed; but whence should I know that he spake the Truth? |
A53737 | If it be no other, why do you distinguish it from its self, and prefer it above it self? |
A53737 | If my story be not true, why do you not disprove it? |
A53737 | If so, why do you set up your wisdom built on frivolous Cavils, against the Will, Wisdom, Love and Care of God? |
A53737 | If some other thing, why do you not declare it? |
A53737 | If you have not done so, why do you not disprove his Assertions? |
A53737 | If you have, why have you practised that in the face of the Sun, which you can not endure to be told of? |
A53737 | In the explication of your distinction of congruity and condignity, how wofully are you divided? |
A53737 | Is it actionable with you against a Protestant, that he will not take your whole Sword into his bowels, without complaining? |
A53737 | Is it any one thing, or way, or means, that the hinge upon which his assent turns? |
A53737 | Is it not one of the main suppositions you proceed upon in your whole discourse? |
A53737 | Is it not simply impossible for him to be satisfied at any time that he believes all that is to be believed, or that he holds the Vnity of Faith? |
A53737 | Is it not true? |
A53737 | Is it the D ● ctrine concerning the Will of God delivered in the Scripture, or is it somewhat else? |
A53737 | Is not this to confess plainly that your Images are teachers of Lyes? |
A53737 | Is not your bowing, kneeling, creeping, kissing, offering, singing, praying to the Cross and images notorious? |
A53737 | Is there no truth in all this, and much more that is affirmed to the same purpose? |
A53737 | Is this Practice Catholick, or like many of your Principles; singular, your own, Donatisticall? |
A53737 | Is this fair, sober, Candid Christian dealing? |
A53737 | Is this pretence consistent with your Plea in your Fiat Lux, wherein you labour to reduce them to a naked fanaticall Credo? |
A53737 | Is this the voice of Jacob, or Esau? |
A53737 | Is this, think you, an acceptable service unto the Lord Christ, who will one day judg the secrets of all hearts according unto that Word? |
A53737 | Is your Rule out of St. Paul applicable unto him upon any other account, but that he himself was both the builder and destroyer? |
A53737 | Is your request reasonable? |
A53737 | May not the people have the use of the Scripture, and yet have the Word preached unto them by their Teachers? |
A53737 | May we know what you think in this Case? |
A53737 | Moreover, we desire to know, What Church you mean in your Assertion, or rather what is it that you mean by the Church? |
A53737 | Nay would you not do so, if the errour he charge you withall, be that of the Authority and Infallibility of your Church? |
A53737 | Now I pray tell me what personal subsistences these Cherubims with their various wings and faces did represent? |
A53737 | Now how should a man prove that he doth any thing by the Commission of Christ, but by producing that Commission? |
A53737 | Now what of this kind do you tender unto us? |
A53737 | Now what say you hereunto? |
A53737 | Now, how I pray will you bring him into that state and condition that he may rationally make any such judgement? |
A53737 | Oecumenius is quite blank against you; so is Cajetan, Erasmus, and Vatablus of your own: and do you not now see what is become of your boasting? |
A53737 | Or do you know them, and yet dare to thrust in your scurrility to their exclusion? |
A53737 | Or do you think that truly generous Spirits will stoop to so poor a lure? |
A53737 | Or is it a Complication of many things concurring to the same purpose? |
A53737 | Or is it your interest to court them with fine words, though your intention be far otherwise? |
A53737 | Or what think you of Capernaum, that was lifted up to Heaven, in the priviledge of the means of light granted for a while unto them? |
A53737 | Or would you prove that Bishops by the Law of this Land have a jurisdiction superior unto Ministers? |
A53737 | Pray Sir, what were those Tables that were written by Moses, when those written by God were broken? |
A53737 | Pray how many thousand years is it think you since Christs birth, now this year 1663.? |
A53737 | Quid Pape cum Petro? |
A53737 | Quis tulerit Graculos de seditione querentes? |
A53737 | Sed cur ergo omnes non credunt Evangelio? |
A53737 | Sed unde quaeso hanc sibi Authoritatem vindicavit? |
A53737 | Seriously Sir, I wonder where you got this Quotation out of Tertullian? |
A53737 | Should a man look on the Cherubims as Images of Angels, would not the first thing they would teach him be a ley? |
A53737 | So saith Theophylact on the place; 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉? |
A53737 | Speak plainly, do you renounce all adoration and worship of Images? |
A53737 | St. Paul tells us that the Magistrate is 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉; doth he mean that he is Gods Sacrificer? |
A53737 | Suppose one Question could not be answered, doth it necessarily follow that another can not? |
A53737 | Take heed that in your Answer, you deny not some Principle that will involve the whole interest of Christianity in its ruine: Where is the defect? |
A53737 | That ever is your own addition, but let it pass; what say you hereunto? |
A53737 | That they who after Papal decisions remain cont ● nacious forfeit their Christianity? |
A53737 | The Church of Judah was once a pure Church in the dayes of David; how came she then to fall? |
A53737 | The Inquisitor lays hold upon them, and bids them be contented with a Rosary, or our Ladies Psalter? |
A53737 | The Scripture is ours, and Christ is ours, and what have any else to do with them? |
A53737 | Then say you, is he such an Head to all Belivers or no? |
A53737 | These things are without the verge of Christian Religion; 〈 ◊ 〉 Towers and Palaces in the ayr: But what must S t Peter be succeeded in? |
A53737 | This Principle I suppose you grant to be true; do you not? |
A53737 | This you have culled out, as supposing your self able to say something unto it; and what is it? |
A53737 | To what purpose? |
A53737 | To which you reply, and, when then for example is Christ crucified rightly and duly represented? |
A53737 | To whom, and for whose instruction were those Epistles of Paul written? |
A53737 | Unto which you reply; But what is that Religion? |
A53737 | Was any occasion offered you to discourse upon that Question? |
A53737 | Was it because he dyed at Rome? |
A53737 | Was it infallible when it made the golden Calf, and danced about it proclaiming a feast unto Jebovah before the Calf? |
A53737 | Was she not judged, censured, written against, and condemned in the person of her chief Pastor? |
A53737 | Was the Bible say you put into other vulgar tongues when they ceased to be vulgar? |
A53737 | Was this Principle pleaded or once asserted in any of the Antient Councels? |
A53737 | Was this quite out of your mind? |
A53737 | We desire then to know when it became the only or absolutely Catholick Church of Christ: As also( secondly) by what means it became so to be? |
A53737 | Were Princes more silent then Synods? |
A53737 | Were they not to the Churches of those dayes? |
A53737 | What course should we now take? |
A53737 | What do you intend by resigning our selves to humility and Peace? |
A53737 | What do you mean Sir by theirs? |
A53737 | What do you mean by alone of its self? |
A53737 | What do you mean by figure or similitude that the true God had allowed his people? |
A53737 | What do you speak to me of Earthquakes? |
A53737 | What expression giving countenance unto this severity? |
A53737 | What ground have you for this intemperate railing? |
A53737 | What have 〈 ◊ 〉 phets and Teachers to do with Sacrifice? |
A53737 | What in sadness do you think might be the cause of that dispensation of his Providence? |
A53737 | What instance can you give of any thing of this nature? |
A53737 | What is I pray? |
A53737 | What may those whom you proclaim to be your enemies expect from you, when you deal thus severely with those whom you give out to be your friends? |
A53737 | What plead you 〈 … 〉 your Vindication? |
A53737 | What say you now to these things? |
A53737 | What shall wee say unto the Gentiles? |
A53737 | What stuff is this? |
A53737 | What then? |
A53737 | What think you of Jerusalem, where Christ himself and his twelve Apostles all of them preached the Gospel? |
A53737 | What think you of Liberius, did he not subscribe to Arianism? |
A53737 | What think you of these words? |
A53737 | What think you of those that were converted by Arians, which were great multitudes, and some whole Nations? |
A53737 | What will hence follow? |
A53737 | What will thence ensue? |
A53737 | What would you make of them? |
A53737 | What wrath is in all this? |
A53737 | When any thing is proposed unto you concerning Religion, do you not think upon it? |
A53737 | Where do you think you are, that you talk at this rate? |
A53737 | Where does Fiat Lux, where does, does he, does he, any such thing? |
A53737 | Wherein then doth this Succession consist that you talk of? |
A53737 | Whether you do not collude with us, or indeed do at all think as you speak? |
A53737 | Whether you forgot not your self when you place Aaron and Joshuah in government together? |
A53737 | Whether you really believe, that the Pope hath Power only to perswade in matters of Religion as you pretend? |
A53737 | Who doubts it, but men may if they will, if they have a mind to do so? |
A53737 | Who is it amongst us that derides the Church of Christ? |
A53737 | Whom do you understand by that Superiour Judicative Power, unto whom you perswade all Parties to submit? |
A53737 | Why do you conclude, that your Query is not answered? |
A53737 | Why do you not plainly say what it is more then manifest you would have? |
A53737 | Why was it not needfull that Paul should have a successor as well as Peter? |
A53737 | Will it afford a man no Light, no Guidance, no Direction? |
A53737 | Will not a man who hears you proving the Authority of your Church by the Scripture, ask you, And whence hath this Scripture its Authority? |
A53737 | Will they judge it meet and equal think you to change a blessed Sacrament that Christ hath appointed, to embrace a Sacrifice that you have invented? |
A53737 | Will you give me leave to guess? |
A53737 | Will you hear what Chrysostome answers? |
A53737 | Will you perswade him that you are the Church, and that the Church is furnished with the Authority mentioned, by rational Arguments? |
A53737 | Will you therefore be pleased to hear your self talk you know not what in this matter once more? |
A53737 | Would you knew where to begin and where to end? |
A53737 | Would you not produce Testimonies of Scripture, with Arguments drawn from them, and the Suffrage of the Fathers to the same purpose? |
A53737 | Yea is not your judgement which you so make, the assent or dissent of your mind? |
A53737 | You adde, What Heretick was ever so much a fool as not to pretend the Love of Christ, and Commission of Christ for what he did? |
A53737 | You adde; Doth he charge Protestants that by their schisms and seditions they make way for other revolts? |
A53737 | You deny it hath been proved, why do you not then disprove it? |
A53737 | You say, Did she fall by Heresie in adhering to any errour in Faith, contrary to the approved doctrine of the Church? |
A53737 | Your reply unto them is, not a grain of virtue or Goodness we must think in so many Christian Kingdoms and Ages: But why must you think so? |
A53737 | and John as well as either of them? |
A53737 | and should they not appear to do so, were his force, wit and courage answerable to his will and pretence of Authority? |
A53737 | and therefore certainly a shrewd impeachment of his Infallibility: and was he not judged for it? |
A53737 | and whither the propositions wherein it is made unto you are true or false? |
A53737 | and why may not we possibly by piece meale? |
A53737 | appointed that there should be any such succession; who, that the Bishop of Rome should be this Successor, Did Jesus Christ do it? |
A53737 | are you one of those that can tell what figures represent or not? |
A53737 | as also in the application of it? |
A53737 | by Apostasie Heresie, or Schisme? |
A53737 | can no man govern in any sense or place but he must be a supream Head? |
A53737 | can you enable him to believe Contradictions at the same time? |
A53737 | did image worship presently prevail upon their determinations? |
A53737 | did you never read your Tridentine Decree, or the Nicene Canons commended by them? |
A53737 | do not I say s ● too? |
A53737 | do not all your writers to this day complain of this opposition made unto you by Photius? |
A53737 | do you charge the Prelate Protestant with building up what others had pulled down, or what he had destroyed himself? |
A53737 | do you not call to mind the Rule and measure whereby you are to make a judgement, whither they be so or no? |
A53737 | do you not consider whither the thing it self be good or evil? |
A53737 | doth he charge the Protestants that by their schisms and seditions, they make a way for other revolts? |
A53737 | doth he gather a Rhapsody of insignificant words? |
A53737 | doth he insist upon their divisions? |
A53737 | doth he mannage the Arguments of the jews against Christ,& c? |
A53737 | doth it therefore follow, that we received all the Doctrines of the present Church of Rome at the same time? |
A53737 | doth not your practice speak it? |
A53737 | doth this disprove my Assertion? |
A53737 | from no Kings, no Princes, no Bishops, no parts of Christendom? |
A53737 | from whose quiver are these arrows taken? |
A53737 | had it not been better to have had one still residing in the Church, of whose Infallibility there could have been no doubt or question? |
A53737 | has it ever done it? |
A53737 | hath no Council amongst you determined it? |
A53737 | hath no man alive such thoughts? |
A53737 | have not the different tempers, constitutions, and Educations of men, a great influence upon their understandings and judgements? |
A53737 | have you no Tradition amongst you that you plead for the Adoration of Images? |
A53737 | have you no regard how you jumble contradictions together, so you may make a shew of saying something? |
A53737 | have you no way to defend the Authority of your Church, but by Questioning the Authority of the Scripture? |
A53737 | have you not denyed it in the words last mentioned? |
A53737 | his Episcopacy and what therewithall? |
A53737 | if he be so to all, you say, then no man is to be governed in Affairs of Religion by any other man: But why so I pray? |
A53737 | if it be, why do you exclaim against it? |
A53737 | if the Apostles used the Sacrifice you talk of, that of the Mass, is it meet we should do so also? |
A53737 | is it not of more then danger, even expresly sinfull? |
A53737 | is not the adoration of Images asserted an hundred times expresly in it? |
A53737 | is such an apprehension suitable to the Goodness, Mercy, Love and faithfulness of God? |
A53737 | is that the Doctrine of your Church? |
A53737 | is there any tendency in your Discourse towards any such purpose? |
A53737 | may not a Judge have his Commission from the King, because some have counterfeited the great Seal? |
A53737 | may not men be warned to take heed of falling into the like evils by the miscarriages of them that went before them without wrath and defamation? |
A53737 | may not others do a thing really upon such grounds as some pretend to do them on falsly? |
A53737 | may they do so upon the same or as good grounds and reasons as they reject errours and false worship for the sake of Christ? |
A53737 | none at all? |
A53737 | or did they publish it in the name of the Pope? |
A53737 | or do you conceive, there is a conceived substance of Gods Will that is taught, or may be by men, better then by God himself? |
A53737 | or do you not rather think that the Catholick Church was belyed and abused by the Synod? |
A53737 | or do you think that he hath such power and Authority to make, constitute or appoint Laws with penal Sanctions in and about things Ecclesiastical? |
A53737 | or his Minister? |
A53737 | or his Servant? |
A53737 | or in the dayes of Jeroboam, when it sacrificed before the Calves at Dan and Bethel? |
A53737 | or that if they may be so, that he is not the only immediate King and supream Head unto them all? |
A53737 | or to travail up and down as the necessity of the Churches did require? |
A53737 | or was that then the faith of the generality of the Church of Christ, which was declared by the fathers of that Convention? |
A53737 | or were they free upon the discovery of their mistake to esteem the whole Gospel a Romance? |
A53737 | or what course do you take? |
A53737 | or what would you make of the Apostle to write things for the standing use of the Church, wherein so few were like to be concerned? |
A53737 | or when they preferred the worship of the Queen of Heaven before that of the God of Abraham? |
A53737 | or will you deny that to be your intention? |
A53737 | or, Is it not really to expose Christian Religion to scorn and contempt? |
A53737 | p. 65. and if so; from what Topicks he takes the Whips, Wires and Racks that he makes use of in his Inquisition? |
A53737 | quis in hoste requirat, as to cast off all Reverence of God and his Word, in the pursuit of the supposed Adversaries of your earthly Interests? |
A53737 | quod si& hoc scirem, num& ab ill ● scirem? |
A53737 | should I know this also from him? |
A53737 | that Christ is the only absolute Head of the Catholick Church? |
A53737 | they may do so Physically, but may they do so Morally? |
A53737 | to all, the whole body in general, and every individual member thereof in particular? |
A53737 | to what purpose serves this fictitious Episcopacy? |
A53737 | was the same Church afterward Infallible in the dayes of the Judges, when it worshipped Baalim and Aftaroth? |
A53737 | were you awake when you wrote these things? |
A53737 | what and how many are those Persons, and where did they live? |
A53737 | what relation is there between the one and other? |
A53737 | what, towards the settlement of any man in Religion, or bringing us unto the Unity of faith, the things enquired after? |
A53737 | where is the least intimation given of any such thing in the Scripture? |
A53737 | where is the proof of what you averre? |
A53737 | where or by whom is it expresly asserted amongst the Antient Writers of the Church? |
A53737 | where the hinderance, why all men upon these Principles however differing at present, may not come to a full Settlement and Agreement? |
A53737 | who ever went about to deny it? |
A53737 | who induceth you thereunto? |
A53737 | who made you judges of what is necessary, and what is not necessary for the Church of Christ, when himself is silent? |
A53737 | why then do you deal sophistically in using the same expression to denote diverse things? |
A53737 | why was it not needfull that one should succeed him in his Apostleship? |
A53737 | will it advantage your Cause what way ever that problem be determined? |
A53737 | would you have a man to do so, who never before heard of Pope or Church? |
A53737 | would you have us believe you at the first word without further triall or examination? |
A53737 | — quantum mutatur ab illa? |
A53696 | 14.1, 2. and then turning unto God he saith, And dost thou open thine eyes upon such an one, regard such a poor frail perishing creature? |
A53696 | 16. was ever designed for this End, to enable them the more easily to obtain the Remission of sins by another means which they use? |
A53696 | 63.2, 3, 4, 5, 6. Who should this work more become, or belong unto than him, who was persecuted and opposed by them? |
A53696 | A living head and dead members, a beautiful head and rotten members, how uncomely would it be? |
A53696 | Again, How are they delivered from their Adversaries? |
A53696 | Against whom do they magnifie themselves, and lift up their horns on high? |
A53696 | Alas, what are they if compared to the excellency of this Love of God in Christ Jesus? |
A53696 | And Jacob asked him and said, Tell me I pray thee thy name; and he said, wherefore dost thou ask after my name? |
A53696 | And Moses cried unto the Lord, saying, What shall I do unto this people? |
A53696 | And Moses said unto them, Why chide ye with me? |
A53696 | And are we not miserable if we like not this agreement? |
A53696 | And doth it not directly belong unto his Kingly power? |
A53696 | And for the errour, if the Father and Son be the God- head, how doth one stand in need of the other? |
A53696 | And for what cause or reason? |
A53696 | And how did he entertain this proposal? |
A53696 | And how do they despoil him of his Honor, in taking of from his work? |
A53696 | And how doth he do it, by the mighty word of hispower, as he made all things of old? |
A53696 | And how many more, wise in this world, through the neglect of it, do walk in darkness all their dayes? |
A53696 | And how shall we judge of what we know nothing but from him, but only by what he doth? |
A53696 | And if he created the world, why did not Moses as plainly attribute that unto him, as the Writers of the New Testament do the new Creation? |
A53696 | And if this be despised, is it not righteous that men should perish? |
A53696 | And in what sense shall he be called the Prince of Peace? |
A53696 | And is it not just that such persons should be filled with the fruit of their own ways? |
A53696 | And is it not their duty to whom they are revealed, to do that, which out of love unto them, our Lord Christ Jesus did on their behalf? |
A53696 | And is not this contrary to the Analogie of the Scripture, and the open truth of the thing its self, he being cursed among the Beasts of the Field? |
A53696 | And is the Great and Holy God less to be regarded? |
A53696 | And now Lord, seeing it is thus: Seeing this is the condition of mankind, what is thence to be looked after? |
A53696 | And shall they escape by whom it is despised? |
A53696 | And the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink? |
A53696 | And what Rule of Justice will admit, that the Accessory should be punished with greater Sufferings than the Principal? |
A53696 | And what a madness is it to judge otherwise of that we do no otherwise understand? |
A53696 | And what are the seventy six Miracles of Moses unto those, as to number, which in the first place the Jews glory in? |
A53696 | And what can it then do? |
A53696 | And what could worldly or Satanical Wisdom have imagined otherwise? |
A53696 | And what did he there? |
A53696 | And what is the Dominion of ten thousands of worlds in comparison of this Inheritance? |
A53696 | And what is this life? |
A53696 | And what shall he do that comes after the King? |
A53696 | And what shall we say concerning the most glorious, concerning the Order of them all unto one another, and the whole? |
A53696 | And what should a spiritual Redeemer do unto these men? |
A53696 | And what should they expect from a Messiah that suffered and died? |
A53696 | And whence is it, that he should take thought of us, or set his heart upon us? |
A53696 | And whence is it, that he who made all these things of nothing, should have such regard to the weak, frail nature of man? |
A53696 | And wherein doth our Testimony come short of theirs? |
A53696 | And who can sufficiently admire this Excellency of the Nature of God? |
A53696 | And who shall sit at the Right Hand of God in his Rule over the whole world? |
A53696 | And who should judge Him, if he left him for ever to eat of the fruit of his own wayes, and to be filled with his own devices? |
A53696 | And who will lay any weight upon what is spoken, foretold, or promised concerning him, if the Jews have power to invent another at their pleasure? |
A53696 | And why four? |
A53696 | And will men yet feed themselves with hopes of mercy whilst they neglect the Gospel? |
A53696 | And yet alass, what a little, what a small portion of its Glory, Excellency, Beauty, Riches, is it, that we are able in this world to attain unto? |
A53696 | Are the miseries of man in his labour, or the sorrows of Women in Childbearing taken away? |
A53696 | Are their Persons, or their Services therefore accepted with God? |
A53696 | Are these things to be despised? |
A53696 | Are they acquainted with the state and condition, the Weakness, Temptations, Graces of all the people of Christ? |
A53696 | Are they meet for the Inheritance of the Saints in light? |
A53696 | Are they not all as subject unto Death, as was Adam himself? |
A53696 | Are they not ready to wash themselves in the blood of them who intimate any such thing unto them? |
A53696 | Are they related or united unto Christ? |
A53696 | Are they to be cast aside among the things wherein we are least concerned? |
A53696 | Are they under his conduct unto glory? |
A53696 | Are we afraid of a man that shall die? |
A53696 | Are we not kept from being prevailed against? |
A53696 | Are we to blame if the Jews are not pleased with the wayes of God? |
A53696 | Being obedient therein unto death, the death of the Cross? |
A53696 | Besides, on what account should Hezekiah so eminently be called The Prince of Peace? |
A53696 | Besides, what ground do such men leave unto the Lord Christ to stand upon as it were in his Intercession for us in Heaven? |
A53696 | Besides, when should he make an end of dying? |
A53696 | Besides, who should contrive the way of it, for them? |
A53696 | Bethlehem 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, art thou but little? |
A53696 | But alas, how will they be deceived? |
A53696 | But alas, what can the best and wisest of men attain unto in the investigation of the Wisdom of God? |
A53696 | But are we forsaken? |
A53696 | But do these thoughts suit the Faith, Hope, Prayers, and Expectations of the Church of old? |
A53696 | But doth he do this absolutely, as they are such? |
A53696 | But had he then unfolded the mysteries of the Old Testament to the Hebrews, which was his design? |
A53696 | But how is this to be done, absolutely and immediately as it is the glory of the Father? |
A53696 | But how may it appear that it was the Messiah who should be thus born of a Virgin? |
A53696 | But how shall this be confirmed unto them? |
A53696 | But is this the Glory promised? |
A53696 | But this is now taken from them, and what shall they do? |
A53696 | But what Justice is it that Man should sin, and Angels suffer? |
A53696 | But what Scepter had the House of Judah before? |
A53696 | But what are all these unto this salvation? |
A53696 | But what great matter is in all this? |
A53696 | But what if the word be abused in that place by that Writer? |
A53696 | But what is now become of that Bath Kol also for a thousand six hundred years? |
A53696 | But what is the Reason that Eldad and M ● dad must be thought to prophesie thus concerning Gog? |
A53696 | But what makes the Application of the night of the Passeover to the coming of the Messiah? |
A53696 | But what need all this Enquiry? |
A53696 | But what tended all this to its glory? |
A53696 | But what th ● n shall become of the people? |
A53696 | But what was this to a Scepter and a Law- giver? |
A53696 | But what was this unto the Gospel that he undertook to declare? |
A53696 | But when Divine Wisdom, Goodness, Love, Grace and Mercy shall set themselves at work, what will they not accomplish? |
A53696 | But when Joshua the Son of Nun first saw the Angel, he said, art thou for us, or for our adversaries? |
A53696 | But who told them so? |
A53696 | But why are not the other Ends expressed in the Prophecy, namely, to seal up Vision and Prophecy, and to annoint the Most Holy, here mentioned also? |
A53696 | By what notions of God could we have been instructed in the Wisdom and Righteousness of such a Proceeding? |
A53696 | Can Right Reason, or a Light within, be no otherwise adored, but by sacrificing the blood of Christ unto them? |
A53696 | Can any be assigned but the Sovereign Grace, Pleasure, and Love of God? |
A53696 | Can any thing more fondly be imagined? |
A53696 | Can he profit God as a man profiteth his neighbour? |
A53696 | Can he save others, who it seems could not save himself? |
A53696 | Can they ascend into heaven? |
A53696 | Can they fancy that their Messiah should be more victorious or successfull then Alexander? |
A53696 | Can they pluck the Lord Christ from the Throne of God? |
A53696 | Cast off the works of his hands, and suffer all things to run at random? |
A53696 | Did their Fore- fathers at any time before the Captivity transgress this Orall Law, or did they not? |
A53696 | Do they answer any one Promise of God concerning him? |
A53696 | Do they not all lead us to the contemplation of his Infinite Excellencies? |
A53696 | Do they not dye who never sinned after the similitude of Adams Transgression? |
A53696 | Do they not take that blood out of his hand, which he is carrying into the Holy Place? |
A53696 | Doth any man doubt but that he wrote in Greek, and therefore so rendred her Syriack Expression? |
A53696 | Doth his Goodness extend to him? |
A53696 | Doth it consist in Riches, Honor, Power, Pleasures? |
A53696 | Doth this more easily respect God or man? |
A53696 | Eliezer did so, being his servant, but how could he ascribe unto him the sitting at the Right Hand of God? |
A53696 | First, What are we delivered from by this salvation? |
A53696 | First, What is man as to his extract? |
A53696 | For can we find out the Almighty unto perfection? |
A53696 | For how can any one be said to please, or attone, or reconcile sin? |
A53696 | For if Righteousness may be obtained, and Attonement made without him, to what End serves the Promise concerning him? |
A53696 | For if the Justice of God required that so it should be, how could it be dispensed withall? |
A53696 | For is it not the work of Christ himself, to subdue and conquer his Enemies? |
A53696 | For to what purpose should it be continued, when that was fully effected whereunto it was designed? |
A53696 | For what can be more unjust, than to punish a man, especially eternally, for not doing that which he had no just or sufficient Reason to do? |
A53696 | For what greater Honour can a Creature be more partaker of, than to be emploied in the service of his Creator? |
A53696 | For whence also should it have it? |
A53696 | For who would not love and delight in the eternal fountain of this inconceivable Grace? |
A53696 | Fourthly, There is a punishment intimated upon this sinful neglect of the Gospel; How shall we escape, flie from, or avoid? |
A53696 | From what spring, what fountain should it proceed? |
A53696 | From whom can such men look for their Reward? |
A53696 | Further, where are the Prophets, promised unto them? |
A53696 | Had any other way been possible, why doth the perishing of Angels so inevitably follow the non- assumption of their nature? |
A53696 | Had he the Power of Peace of any sort in his hand? |
A53696 | Had they no Eye of old unto Spiritual and Eternal things in the Promise of the Messiah? |
A53696 | Hast thou Love enough to wash them in thy own Blood, in a Nature to be taken of them? |
A53696 | Hath he any need of him, or his services? |
A53696 | Hath he at any time shut up the Progress of Revelation? |
A53696 | Hath he not already conquered all our enemies? |
A53696 | Hath he not alwayes kept the Church in expectation of new Revelations of his mind and will? |
A53696 | Hath it not been by parts and degrees? |
A53696 | Have not other men done as much or more for their Citizens and People? |
A53696 | Have they Wisdom sufficient to enable them so to do? |
A53696 | Have they found out some other way, or do they utterly give over seeking after Salvation? |
A53696 | Have we not much more reason to be afraid of the Living God? |
A53696 | Have we taken a right measure of what we have received? |
A53696 | He expects a reverence of Praise and Glory for it: and how can we bless him for it, when we know nothing of it? |
A53696 | He it was who pressed with a sense of Gods dereliction cryed out, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? |
A53696 | He replies, Whence is all this evil come upon us? |
A53696 | Here lies our treasure, here lies our inheritance, why should not our hearts be here also? |
A53696 | Here they reproach him, blaspheme him, despise him, persecute him, shall they escape and go free? |
A53696 | How are all the Nations of the world, as the drop of a bucket, as the dust of the ballance, as Vanity, as Nothing before him? |
A53696 | How are they defended § 6 from their Oppressors? |
A53696 | How astonishable is this his Greatness? |
A53696 | How can God spare sin in his Enemies, who could not spare it on his only Son? |
A53696 | How can they reduce the Creation unto its Original Harmony? |
A53696 | How can we attribute it unto the Wisdom and Greatness of God? |
A53696 | How can we enough bewail that vanity whence it is, that the mind suffereth it self to be possessed and filled with other things? |
A53696 | How could they say; Who hath believed our report, or the Doctrine that we had heard, and taught, concerning this person, or these persons? |
A53696 | How deep, how unfathomable is this fountain? |
A53696 | How do they say, For the iniquity of my people he was stricken, v. 8. Who are they when the people themselves are supposed to speak? |
A53696 | How doth his heart triumph in, and rejoyce over the knowledge he had obtained of Jesus Christ? |
A53696 | How glorious is the Sun in the firmament in comparison of a poor worm in the earth? |
A53696 | How know they that any such Law was given to Moses as they pretend? |
A53696 | How little can our weak understandings apprehend of this Majesty? |
A53696 | How many poor souls otherwise weak and simple, have by this means grown exceeding wise in the Mysterie of God? |
A53696 | How may they triumph in a glorious Prospect of this certain and unavoidable Issue of the Opposition that is made to the Kingdom of their Redeemer? |
A53696 | How poor, how undeservable are we? |
A53696 | How shall escape? |
A53696 | How shall we escape if we neglect? |
A53696 | How should it? |
A53696 | How then doth he ▪ answer what they say? |
A53696 | How then shall it be wrought? |
A53696 | How weak and mean are the conceptions and thoughts of little children about the designs and counsels of the wise men of the earth? |
A53696 | I ask, where? |
A53696 | If as God, how could he be said to be made above the Angels? |
A53696 | If he sin what doth he against him? |
A53696 | If it were incumbent on Paul writing unto the Hebrews, to write in their own Language, why did he not also write in Latin unto the Romans? |
A53696 | If the Covenant of those promises be not expired in the coming of the Messiah, what account can they give of these things? |
A53696 | If the same mind had been in Christ, as was in us, what had been our state and condition unto eternity? |
A53696 | If they are not, how know they but that they may command and appoint them things greatly to their disadvantage, when they think to profit them? |
A53696 | If they like not of these terms, they may let the way of Christ alone; if they will not do so, why do they yet complain? |
A53696 | If they say the former was intended, I desire to know when this promise was accomplished under the second Temple? |
A53696 | Is God unjust? |
A53696 | Is any thing too hard for the Captain of our salvation? |
A53696 | Is he not able to subdue all things by his Power? |
A53696 | Is it a small thing for a Creature to break that Order which God at first placed him and all things in? |
A53696 | Is it because he would? |
A53696 | Is it meet that God should be mocked, his Grace be despised, his Justice violated, his Glory lost, all, that sinners may go unpunished? |
A53696 | Is it not He? |
A53696 | Is it not a foolish thing to look for life, by the death of another? |
A53696 | Is it not also, that they should come to him? |
A53696 | Is it not as nothing in your eyes? |
A53696 | Is it not because it would be very difficult to make any tolerable application of these things unto the season, which is called the time of the End? |
A53696 | Is it not in your eyes in comparison of it as nothing? |
A53696 | Is it not just and equal that it should prove a savour of death unto death unto them? |
A53696 | Is it not said, that he shall do so? |
A53696 | Is it nothing unto you that heshould undergo all these things? |
A53696 | Is it one thing that sins, and another that is punished? |
A53696 | Is it reasonable we should attend unto you in this matter? |
A53696 | Is not all pretence of Revelations utterly departed? |
A53696 | Is not the Father Eternal but in the man Christ Jesus? |
A53696 | Is not this plainly to tell him, that they despise his love, scorn his offers of Reconciliation, and fear not in the least what he can do unto them? |
A53696 | Is our Trouble so small, are our Duties so ordinary, that we can wrestle with them, or perform them in our own strength? |
A53696 | Is the Bloud of Christ such a common thing, as to be so cast away upon the lusts of men? |
A53696 | Is the Earth its self freed from the Effects of the Curse? |
A53696 | Is there any other Propertie of the Divine Nature whose consideration will administer unto men any ground of hope? |
A53696 | Is there any thing in the Name of God in that Revelation that he hath made of himself by his Works, or in his Word, to give them encouragement? |
A53696 | Is there no more required unto this delivery, but that he should come to them? |
A53696 | Is this I say the continuance of the Tribe and Scepter of Judah? |
A53696 | Is this only the importance of it, that towards the end of the world, many of them shall be conquered? |
A53696 | Is this that which they desired, prayed for, longed for, esteeming all the Glory of their present Enjoyments as nothing in comparison of it? |
A53696 | Is this the meaning of the Promise given unto Adam? |
A53696 | It is glorious even in the Angels to serve the God of Glory; what is there above this for a creature to aspire unto? |
A53696 | Man it was, concerning whom the words are spoken; What is man? |
A53696 | Many of the People believed on him, and said, when Christ cometh will he do more Miracles then these, which this man doeth? |
A53696 | Men in the neglect of them neglect and refuse their own salvation: and can any man perish more justly than they who refuse to be saved? |
A53696 | Might not he have left us to perish in our condition, and freely enjoyed his own? |
A53696 | More woful than to work out their own Eternal Destruction under the Wrath of Christ, in a business wherein they had no success? |
A53696 | Nay doth not the Scripture in all places fully and plainly witness against it? |
A53696 | Now how can this be obtained, unless we are conversant in our minds about them? |
A53696 | Now saith the Apostle, to which of any of these, or of the rest of them, were these words spoken? |
A53696 | Now this was done by the body of the Jewish Nation; they received him not, they obeyed not his voice, and what was the end of this their disobedience? |
A53696 | Now were the Jews, that is, the body of the people guilty of these sins under the second House? |
A53696 | Now what can not he do who is so? |
A53696 | Now what is man, that this every way all- sufficient God should mind, regard and visit him? |
A53696 | Now what pretence of peace had the Jews under the second Temple wherein all Nations were concerned? |
A53696 | Now what were the sins of this people under the first Temple before their captivity? |
A53696 | Now whereunto doth all this tend? |
A53696 | Now who was fit, who was able to determine upon these different and various Institutions of God, but God himself? |
A53696 | Of Gods appointment it was, and effectual it was unto them that embraced it, and why it should be laid aside who can declare? |
A53696 | One Single Person, More, or All? |
A53696 | Or can there be any greater evidence, that we have no Propriety in them, than that would be, if our hearts should not be set upon them? |
A53696 | Or do we not complain without a cause? |
A53696 | Or if his transgressions be multiplied what doth he against him? |
A53696 | Or, Secondly, An Interrogation must be supposed to be included in the words, art thou but little? |
A53696 | Ought you not to have that in your hearts as well as care of your selves? |
A53696 | Quantum est quod nescimus? |
A53696 | Quid argumentis aliunde conquisi ● s laborat author, cum uno ictu, unica naturae istius divinae mentione rem totam conficere potuisset? |
A53696 | Secondly, Vnto what especial end and purpose doth God make use of the Ministery of Angels for the good of them that believe? |
A53696 | Shall Christ die again that the despisers of the Gospel may be saved? |
A53696 | Shall he die again for them by whom his death hath been despised? |
A53696 | Shall he fore- go the glory of his Righteousn ● ss and Holiness, to please them in their presumption and prejudices? |
A53696 | Shall he leave all things in disorder and confusion? |
A53696 | Shall he obey, and suffer, and bleed, and pray, and die, for a thing of nought? |
A53696 | Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right? |
A53696 | Shall the Son of God shed his blood in vain? |
A53696 | Shall they alwayes prosper? |
A53696 | Shall we believe the Angel or them? |
A53696 | Shall we faint whilest Jesus Christ lives and reigns? |
A53696 | Shall we go and bow our selves down to the Angels themselves, and pay our homage of Obedience unto them? |
A53696 | Shall we make our selves Judges of what sin against God doth deserve? |
A53696 | Shall we, to avoid the anger of a Worm, cast our selves into his wrath who is a consuming fire? |
A53696 | Should it be brought forth and made effectual? |
A53696 | So that Man hu is as much as, What is it? |
A53696 | So that unto God asking that question, Whom will ye compare unto me, and whom will you liken me unto? |
A53696 | So they have done in all Ages, so they continue to do to this day; and what is the issue? |
A53696 | That is to his disadvantage: If he be righteous what giveth he unto him, or what receiveth he at his hand? |
A53696 | The Father says unto him, Seest thou these poor wretched Creatures, that lie perishing in their bloud, and under the curse? |
A53696 | The Introduction of the Testimony is by way of Interrogation; Vnto which of the Angels said he at any time? |
A53696 | The Lord whom ye seek shall come, but who may abide the day of his coming? |
A53696 | The holy God will do no iniquity: the Judge of all the earth will do right, and will by no means acquit the guilty? |
A53696 | The manner of ascertaining the punishment intimated, is by an Interrogation, How shall we escape? |
A53696 | The utmost of mercy and grace is already sinned against, and what remaineth now for the relief of a sinner? |
A53696 | The words of the former place are, Who is left among you, that saw this house in her first Glory, and how do you see it now? |
A53696 | Their Temple being utterly destroyed as well as their State, and their Messiah not yet come, what think they of their Sacrifices? |
A53696 | Their power issued in the Dominion of the Romans, and their Vassals the Herodians? |
A53696 | They all cry out with one accord, see you do it not, we are your fellow servants: What shall we then do? |
A53696 | They are sufficient indeed in their own way and place, but are they so absolutely also? |
A53696 | They cry, What will nothing turn these poor foolish creatures out of their way? |
A53696 | This saith he, shall not depart from Judah, 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 untill David come; and why David? |
A53696 | This the Apostle insinuates in that interrogation, How shall we escape? |
A53696 | This the Prophet intimates, v. 4. Who is there left among you, who saw this House in its first glory, and what do you now see it? |
A53696 | This the intendment of the Promise made unto him, that in his seed all the Nations of the Earth should be blessed? |
A53696 | Thus for the most part the first Question of a Romanist is, How do you know the Scriptures to be the Word of God? |
A53696 | To that whose Greatness we can not measure, whose Nature we can not comprehend, whose Glory we can only stand afar off and adore? |
A53696 | To what end should any man trouble himself, about that which is cast, as a fancy and empty imagination, by its own verdict? |
A53696 | To whom shall the Gentiles be gathered to be saved by him? |
A53696 | Vnto which of the Angels said he at any time? |
A53696 | Was he the Lord of it? |
A53696 | Was it at his disposal? |
A53696 | Was it to be absolutely everlasting? |
A53696 | Was it to expire? |
A53696 | Was the Church in travail for so many Generations to bring forth this Fighter? |
A53696 | Was this done in Italy before it was sent unto the Hebrews? |
A53696 | Was this the End of the Call and Separation of Abraham? |
A53696 | Was this the Expectation of the Fathers of old? |
A53696 | Was this the intent of the Oath made unto David, and of the sure mercies confirmed unto him, and his, thereby? |
A53696 | We ask them then, If Jesus of Nazareth be not the Messiah, where is he? |
A53696 | We see not the depth of that malicious respect which it hath unto God; and are we capable to judge aright of what is its Demerit? |
A53696 | Well let that be granted, what will thence ensue? |
A53696 | Well, if we are unwilling hereunto; What doth the Lord Christ lose by it? |
A53696 | Were they not delivered from former Oppressions and Captivities, by other means? |
A53696 | What Rule of Justice is observed herein? |
A53696 | What all this while is become of the work every where in the Scripture assigned § 32 unto the Messiah? |
A53696 | What beauty or comeliness can he have in him, for which of them he should be desired? |
A53696 | What can be expected from him, who is taken, slain, crucified? |
A53696 | What can be farther desired to render it so, or to provoke us unto it? |
A53696 | What can they do to restore the Vniverse unto its first Glory and Beauty? |
A53696 | What else is able to look through the Unconceivable variety of Aggravating Circumstances which is required hereunto? |
A53696 | What greater condescension love or grace could be conceived or desired? |
A53696 | What greater glory than to stand in the Presence, and to do the Will of the King of Heaven? |
A53696 | What greater honour can we have, than to be free- men of that Corporation whereof he is the Head, than to be subjects of his Kingdom? |
A53696 | What if all these should prove true, and you should prove lyars, should we not perish for ever, by relying on your testimony? |
A53696 | What instance of the like dispensation can they produce? |
A53696 | What is a little dust to an Immensity of Being? |
A53696 | What is a little sinful dust and ashes, before or in the sight of this God of glory? |
A53696 | What is a poor worm unto him who is every where, and who is every where filled with his own Excellencies and Blessedness? |
A53696 | What is alittle outward want and poverty, to the want of the favour love and presence of God unto Eternity? |
A53696 | What is in this Messiah that he should be the Hope and Desire of all Nations? |
A53696 | What is it then that the Jews plead, what do they expect? |
A53696 | What is man, saith he? |
A53696 | What is the Greatness, the Glory of it, that can no otherwise be discerned? |
A53696 | What is the formal Reason and Cause of all these things, that he hates, abhors, and will destroy sin and sinners? |
A53696 | What is the meaning of that Plea, that by Sacrifices indeed Remission of sins might more easily be obtained, but obtained it may be without them? |
A53696 | What is the sickness of the body, unto the disease, yea the death of the soul? |
A53696 | What is there in it suitable unto his Righteousness and Holiness? |
A53696 | What is there in us, what is there belonging unto us, that is not suited to abase us? |
A53696 | What is this better state? |
A53696 | What is to be expected? |
A53696 | What period can be assigned unto its duration, but only that of the coming of the Messiah and the establishment of a New Covenant in him? |
A53696 | What promises are given unto them? |
A53696 | What shall now the Governour of all the world do? |
A53696 | What shall we render for them, and to whom? |
A53696 | What shall we say then, is God unjust who inflicteth Vengeance? |
A53696 | What should be the cause and reason hereof? |
A53696 | What should hinder us from betaking our selves unto him continually? |
A53696 | What then is become of their Messiah, who was to come unto them whilest they were so; seeing they were so by their own confession only for his sake? |
A53696 | What then is the cause of the different event and success between them before insisted on? |
A53696 | What then is to be done to prevent this confusion? |
A53696 | What then remains, for the finishing of our course? |
A53696 | What then would he do to his great name? |
A53696 | What though God hath promised that it should be so; that Christ hath undertaken to make it so; What if it be required to be so? |
A53696 | What tolerable Reason can be given for such an accumulation of Names unto God in this place? |
A53696 | What wait I for? |
A53696 | What was the condition of that House in those ten years, and almost half ten times ten years before? |
A53696 | What word is there in the Law, or the Prophets, that they shall not be delivered out of Temporal distresses any other way but by the Messiah? |
A53696 | What would they have poor sinners do in this case? |
A53696 | When did any open their lips, and shake their heads at him, using the words mentioned, v. 7, 8? |
A53696 | When did any part his garments, and cast lots on his vesture, v. 18? |
A53696 | When was he brought to the dust of death, before his last and final dissolution, v. 15? |
A53696 | When was he, or his blood poured forth like water, and all his bones dis- joynted, v. 14? |
A53696 | When were his hands and feet pierced, v. 16? |
A53696 | Whence comes it to pass, that the great promise of it doth utterly fail? |
A53696 | Where is now the Covenant of the Land of Canaan? |
A53696 | Where is the God of Judgement? |
A53696 | Where is the glory of this dispensation? |
A53696 | Where is the protection, the deliverance promised? |
A53696 | Where is the voice of this Oppressor? |
A53696 | Where then shall this poor Creature, so frail in its self, in its Actings, in its Enjoyments, seek for Rest, Consolation and satisfaction? |
A53696 | Wherewith shall we come before the Lord, or appear before the High God? |
A53696 | Who is that cast off unto? |
A53696 | Who not overpowered with prejudice could once imagine any such sense in these words? |
A53696 | Who shall be a Priest after the Order of Melchizedeck? |
A53696 | Who shall be a blessing unto all Nations? |
A53696 | Who shall be bruised, grieved, and afflicted by God himself, because he shall bear the Iniquities of his People? |
A53696 | Who shall break the Serpents Head? |
A53696 | Who shall for ever make Intercession for Transgressors? |

A53696 | Who shall make Attonement for Transgressors and bring in everlasting Righteousness? |
A53696 | Who shall make his Soul an Offering for sin? |
A53696 | Who shall take away the curse that entered on Sin? |
A53696 | Who was it that denounced death in case he so transgressed? |
A53696 | Who was it that pronounc ● d him miserable, and the world accursed on the account thereof? |
A53696 | Whom is it that they do despise? |
A53696 | Why are they not delivered out of captivity? |
A53696 | Why doth God thus threaten and curse sin and sinners? |
A53696 | Why hath he prepared an Eternity of Vengeance and Torment for them? |
A53696 | Why not restored to their Land according to express Testimonies of the Covenant made with them unto that purpose? |
A53696 | Why should they look out in this case for Relief, seeing they have enough at home to serve their turns? |
A53696 | Why then let them be so; but what are they the better for it? |
A53696 | Will he lose his Crown or Kingdom thereby? |
A53696 | Will it be any real Abatement of his honour or glory? |
A53696 | Will they not suffer God to send his Messiah in his own way, but they must tell him, that it must not be so? |
A53696 | Wilt thou make thy Soul an Offering for their sins? |
A53696 | Would they have God unjust? |
A53696 | Would this become the Righteous Governour of all the world? |
A53696 | Young man, what is here the price of Swine fit for sacrifice? |
A53696 | a Glory so much greater, as to be thus eminently promised and intimated to be brought in with the shaking of Heaven, and Earth, Sea, and dry land? |
A53696 | a vapour that appeareth for a little while: What are the enjoyments of this life? |
A53696 | and by the vulgar Latine, Quid est hoc? |
A53696 | and doth not his Holiness and Justice require that so it should be? |
A53696 | and how can he say unto him, Thou art a Priest? |
A53696 | and is not the same evident concerning our Apostle from the interpretation that he gives of those Hebrew Words? |
A53696 | and lay down thy Life a Ransome for them? |
A53696 | and so the words are rendred by the LXX, 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, What is this? |
A53696 | and thy years fail not by Christ? |
A53696 | and who would not believe them? |
A53696 | are they not his, who hath all power in Heaven and Earth committed unto him? |
A53696 | believest thou the prophets? |
A53696 | by whom? |
A53696 | can they name one since the § 7 daies of a John Baptist, whom they owned for a Prophet? |
A53696 | can we by searching find out God? |
A53696 | cause it to cease, render the promise useless? |
A53696 | did he ever declare that he would add no more unto what he had commanded, or make no alteration in what he had instituted? |
A53696 | doth he rest there? |
A53696 | doth the Spirit of the Lord Christ rest upon them, ● o make them of quick understanding in the fear of the Lord? |
A53696 | from the Time of his birth, or from the time of his forming in the Womb? |
A53696 | hath any one amongst them pretended to any such thing, whom the event, and themselves thereon have not discovered to be an Impostor? |
A53696 | hath it not been otherwise with them? |
A53696 | how being a Priest for ever after the order of Melchizedeck, or indeed any one thing mentioned in the Psalm? |
A53696 | how did he like these Conditions? |
A53696 | how mean, how weak, how low, how unworthy are our apprehensions of it? |
A53696 | how much is it, that we know not? |
A53696 | how the sending forth the rod of his power from Sion? |
A53696 | how unsearchable are these springs? |
A53696 | if the time be not yet expired for the coming of the Messiah, why are they not delivered? |
A53696 | if they say it respects God; I desire to know, if he can pardon sin without Sacrifice, why he can not do it as easily as with them? |
A53696 | in what Author? |
A53696 | in what Language was it communicated unto others by them who first received it? |
A53696 | is there none worthy in heaven or earth to undertake this work, and must it cease for ever? |
A53696 | more miserable than to engage in that design, wherein they must necessarily fall and be ruined? |
A53696 | must that give a rule unto its interpretation in all other Writers where it is properly used? |
A53696 | nothing at all; not the least of use or comfort? |
A53696 | or as Job speaks, 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 how small is the word that we understand of God? |
A53696 | or from whence should it arise that from their suffering it should be Righteous, that he should go free? |
A53696 | or what Authority would be left unto his Law, when he himself should dissolve the Sanction of it? |
A53696 | or what is he eased of by Sacrifices? |
A53696 | or who is he that came in answer to the Prophecies insisted on? |
A53696 | that it should be in their power to restrain all the promised ● ffects of them from the world? |
A53696 | they render those words, 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, Why hidest thou thy face? |
A53696 | this can be of nothing but of that which they are now forced to make use of, for that end and purpose, and what is that? |
A53696 | to what end then was it written in Hebrew, when it was not to be used but in Greek? |
A53696 | unless we dwell in our thoughts and affections upon them? |
A53696 | was it sent in Hebrew before the supposed Translation? |
A53696 | what that its nature is capable of? |
A53696 | what then is become of that Covenant wherein it was promised unto them? |
A53696 | wherefore do ye tempt the Lord? |
A53696 | whose Gospel do they refuse Obedience unto? |
A53696 | whose Ordinances, Laws, Institutions do they contemn? |
A53696 | whose people and servants do they revile and persecute? |
A53696 | why God should thus bruise him, and put him to grief? |
A53696 | § 31 But do these things answer the Promises made concerning him from the foundation of the world? |
A53696 | § 4 What is man that thou art mindful of him, or the Son of man that thou visitest him? |
A53696 | 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 What is thy name? |
A53696 | 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉( which they interpret, and Israel shall gather wealth, or substance) fulfilled? |
A53696 | 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, What is man that thou shouldst magnifie him, that thou shouldst set thine heart upon him? |
A53696 | 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, Why takest thou away the Majesty of thy glory? |
A53696 | 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, shall their unbelief make the faith of God of none effect? |
A53696 | 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉; If the flesh s ● n without the spirit, why is the soul punished? |
A53696 | 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉; do we make the Law void by faith? |
A53721 | 1. how much more will he do so, who being often invited unto Peace with God, yet hardeneth his heart, and refuseth to treat with him? |
A53721 | 11. what do the Saints hereupon? |
A53721 | 16. not make haste; to what? |
A53721 | 18. Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity? |
A53721 | 24. cry out, when he was deprived of them? |
A53721 | A man professeth that the death of Christ will mortifie sin, and subdue corruption; Why doth he believe it? |
A53721 | After what? |
A53721 | Ah how many Laodicean Churches have we in the World? |
A53721 | Ah poor worms, with whom have we to do? |
A53721 | Ah saith the soul, Whither shall I cause my sorrow to go? |
A53721 | Ah, saith the soul, have I thus requited the wonderful astonishing Love of my Redeemer? |
A53721 | Alas, what strangers for the most part are men now adayes to this frame? |
A53721 | And are they accepted with God? |
A53721 | And by the Apostle; Is God unjust who taketh vengeance? |
A53721 | And by what means it hath been declared unto you? |
A53721 | And doth he not in them, and by them speak us into a Reverence of his Greatness? |
A53721 | And for us who have in this matter to do with God, what is our continuance unto that of the world? |
A53721 | And for your duties you mention, what I pray is the root and spring of them? |
A53721 | And hast thou thus requited my love? |
A53721 | And have I failed them? |
A53721 | And have you considered what it is for sinners, such sinners as you are, to have to deal with a Righteous and a holy God? |
A53721 | And have your hearts leaped within you with the thoughts of it? |
A53721 | And how could his delight be with the Sons of men? |
A53721 | And how do we behold this glory? |
A53721 | And how is it in this case? |
A53721 | And how small a portion is it that we know of God? |
A53721 | And if he be somewhat disquieted, can he not contain himself, but that he must roar, and cry out? |
A53721 | And if we deal so with God what is there in our so doing, praise worthy? |
A53721 | And indeed what can be more righteous than its sentence? |
A53721 | And is not the reason of it, that we value the world more, and Heaven and heavenly things less than he did? |
A53721 | And shall he be refused by you? |
A53721 | And shall it now be neglected or despised by you? |
A53721 | And shall not we be instructed by him? |
A53721 | And shall not we now be made partakers of it? |
A53721 | And shall the soul be slothful, careless, dull, secure, when fire is put to its eternal concernments? |
A53721 | And shall this fail us? |
A53721 | And shall we think that such as these believe forgiveness of sin? |
A53721 | And to what end doth God at any time make these seemingly dubious intimations of Grace and Mercy? |
A53721 | And to what end hat he thus spared us, and let pass those Advantages for our destruction, that we have put into his hand? |
A53721 | And to what end is this? |
A53721 | And to what end? |
A53721 | And what Effects have these thoughts produced? |
A53721 | And what Reason have they then to believe that the things which it speaks of that are without them, are one jot better? |
A53721 | And what are we poor worms, whose lives are measured by inches in comparison of their span? |
A53721 | And what are we, that we should contend about it with him? |
A53721 | And what can not the Wisdom and Grace of the Father and Son effect and accomplish? |
A53721 | And what could God that can not lye, do more, to give us satisfaction herein than he hath done? |
A53721 | And what course doth he steer in this heavy, sorrowful, and disconsolate condition? |
A53721 | And what course doth he take to convince them of their mistake therein? |
A53721 | And what course doth he take? |
A53721 | And what did he obtain hereby? |
A53721 | And what do they bear witness unto? |
A53721 | And what do we know or understand of these things? |
A53721 | And what doth she do when she is thus resolved? |
A53721 | And what greater evidence, what greater Assurance can we have, that there is forgiveness with God for us? |
A53721 | And what is got by this? |
A53721 | And what is it that he prayes for them, in distinction from all other men whatever? |
A53721 | And what is that? |
A53721 | And what is the rise, spring, and cause of these things? |
A53721 | And what is their acceptance with God? |
A53721 | And what know we hereof? |
A53721 | And what peace can you possibly obtain, were you as holy as ever you aimed or desired to be, whilest this is your Condition? |
A53721 | And what shall we say, when he himself hath undertaken to make all things that he guides unto us to work together for our good? |
A53721 | And what thence ensues? |
A53721 | And what was that better Testament? |
A53721 | And what was the Reason, what was the cause, that he was thus dealt withal? |
A53721 | And what way did you steer, what course did you take to obtain the blessed condition wherein now you are? |
A53721 | And what will be the end? |
A53721 | And what will be the issue? |
A53721 | And what will it avail any of us, that there is forgiveness of sin with God, if our own sins be not forgiven? |
A53721 | And wherein did it consist? |
A53721 | And wherein doth that consist? |
A53721 | And who is this that is thus sent and called the only begotten Son of God? |
A53721 | And why so? |
A53721 | And wilt thou think it meet for such a one as thou art, to magnifie thy self against the great possessor of Heaven and Earth? |
A53721 | Are not Heaven and Earth astonished at the despising of that Love, at which they are astonished? |
A53721 | Are not the Consciences, and Convictions of the most stifled, by this Apprehension? |
A53721 | Are the corrupted Natures of men, and the Gospel so suited, so complying? |
A53721 | Are their consciences purged? |
A53721 | Are their hearts continually filled with thoughts about it? |
A53721 | Are their hearts purified by it? |
A53721 | Are their lives changed? |
A53721 | Are they not all the effect of the Word of the Power of this glorious God? |
A53721 | Are they solicitous about it? |
A53721 | Are they solicitous concerning their interest in it? |
A53721 | Are we not satisfied with our condition? |
A53721 | Are we, say they, blind also? |
A53721 | Are you tossed up and down between hopes and fears, want peace, consolation and establishment? |
A53721 | Art thou come to call my sins to remembrance and to slay my Son? |
A53721 | Art thou not even ashamed to desire him to return? |
A53721 | As Reuben cryed, The child is not, and I whither shall I go? |
A53721 | Be it so then; through our sin and default this good and holy Law, this Covenant was made unprofitable unto us; But what was that unto God? |
A53721 | But are you sure now that this is so, may you not possibly be deceived? |
A53721 | But did they make a right Judgement of themselves? |
A53721 | But doth Christ agree with Zion in this sentence? |
A53721 | But doth he lye down under the burden of all this trouble? |
A53721 | But doth it abide there? |
A53721 | But doth not this tend to licenciousness? |
A53721 | But his Soveraignty, Righteousness and Holiness, how are they declared hereby? |
A53721 | But how are you confirmed in this perswasion? |
A53721 | But how can this be? |
A53721 | But how doth this appear that indeed this is the counsel of his will? |
A53721 | But how then could he rejoyce in the habitable parts of the Earth? |
A53721 | But is this all? |
A53721 | But is this that forgiveness which is revealed in the Gospel? |
A53721 | But is this the design of God? |
A53721 | But now what are the greatest number of those who pretend to receive this Truth? |
A53721 | But now what can be required to make any thing a duty unto us, that is wanting in this matter? |
A53721 | But shall this Atheistical wickedness of the heart of man be called a discovery of forgiveness? |
A53721 | But this is not all; he is not swallowed up in this amazement, crying out only who can stand? |
A53721 | But was it so with her indeed? |
A53721 | But what are these duties? |
A53721 | But what is a dead body, and a dead womb, to an accusing Conscience, a killing Law, and apprehensions of a God terrible as a consuming fire? |
A53721 | But what is it that can be reasonably excepted against this evidence, this foundation of our faith in this matter? |
A53721 | But what is it unto the whole habitable world, and the fulness thereof? |
A53721 | But what is the ground of such an invitation, unto such profligate sinners? |
A53721 | But what is the issue? |
A53721 | But what is the issue? |
A53721 | But what is the issue? |
A53721 | But who are they? |
A53721 | But you will say how shall we distinguish between these two, so as not causelesly to be disquieted and perplexed? |
A53721 | But you will say; Why, what great matter is there that you have in hand? |
A53721 | By whom are they proposed? |
A53721 | By whom were these Terms procured for you? |
A53721 | Can I walk with God in them, whilst I have thus made him mine enemy? |
A53721 | Can a man be profitable unto God, as he that is wise may be profitable unto himself? |
A53721 | Can any one certainly say, that he is worsted thereby? |
A53721 | Can he not be quiet night nor day? |
A53721 | Can he, say they, give bread? |
A53721 | Can two walk together unless they be agreed? |
A53721 | Can we be deceived trusting in it, or expecting that we shall find him to be what his name declares? |
A53721 | Can you find a man that is otherwise minded? |
A53721 | Could it have any other end, but to deceive poor creatures? |
A53721 | Did I love thee, and leave my glory to become a scorn and reproach for thy sake? |
A53721 | Did I not think my life, and all that was dear unto me too good for thee, to save thee from the wrath to come? |
A53721 | Did he go through with it? |
A53721 | Did he no more for the securing of the forgiveness of sins unto us, but only that he dyed for them? |
A53721 | Did he only testifie his Love, and shew his good will for our deliverance? |
A53721 | Did his Work cease in his death? |
A53721 | Did it interest them in the promises? |
A53721 | Did not the wrath of God overtake them notwithstanding? |
A53721 | Did this profit them? |
A53721 | Do these things abound in you? |
A53721 | Do they deny all ungodliness and worldly lusts? |
A53721 | Do they look upon it as their Treasure, their Jewel, their Pearl of price? |
A53721 | Do they often look and examine whether it continues safe in their possession or no? |
A53721 | Do they reckon, that whilst that is safe, all is safe with them? |
A53721 | Do we doubt whether there be forgiveness with God or no? |
A53721 | Do we not find all men full enough, most too full of Apprehensions of Forgiveness with God? |
A53721 | Do we think that God hath forgiveness only for this or that individual person? |
A53721 | Do you aright consider the nature of this matter? |
A53721 | Do you at all seriously think of these things? |
A53721 | Do you think it excellent, safe, and Glorious unto them who are entred unto it? |
A53721 | Do you think to mend your condition by wishing it better, or complaining it is so bad? |
A53721 | Doth forgiveness teach them so to do? |
A53721 | Doth the Husbandman after he casts his seed into the Earth, immediately the next day, the next week, expect that it will be harvest? |
A53721 | Find you not in your selves an impotency, a disability unto the dutyes of Obedience, as to their performance unto God in an acceptable manner? |
A53721 | Finding themselves in depths, in distresses about sin, what course do they take? |
A53721 | First, Then in particular it cryes out, If thou Lord shouldst mark iniquities, O Lord who shall stand? |
A53721 | For do we think that he will be beholding unto them? |
A53721 | For having said, Why dost thou cast me off O God? |
A53721 | For how else should Cain so instantly know, that his Brother and his Offering were accepted, but that he and his were refused? |
A53721 | For how should a man, any man, the best of men, be just with God if he would contend with him? |
A53721 | For may he not do what he will with his own? |
A53721 | For the Interrogation is indefinite; not how can I? |
A53721 | For to what end should he have done it? |
A53721 | For what Reason can be imagined, why God will be glorified in one Essential Excellency of his Nature, and not in another? |
A53721 | For what else becomes us when we have to do with this great, and Holy one? |
A53721 | For what need any man complain of that which requires nothing of him, but what he is from his own frame and Principles inclined unto? |
A53721 | For what should encourage us unto any such boldness? |
A53721 | For what sincerity can be in such proceedings? |
A53721 | For who hath known the mind of the Lord, or who hath been his counsellor? |
A53721 | God alwaies immutably subsisting in his own Infinite Being? |
A53721 | Gospel- forgiveness? |
A53721 | Hast thou not heard; hast not thou known? |
A53721 | Hath God enlarged our hearts in prayer? |
A53721 | Hath Nabal thus requited my kindness saith David? |
A53721 | Hath he so done his work and laid it aside, or doth he still continue to carry it on until it be brought unto its perfection? |
A53721 | Hath it been to make up what was wanting, and to piece up a peace in your own Consciences? |
A53721 | Hath it filled you with self- loathing and Abhorrency, with self- condemnation, and abasement? |
A53721 | Hath it this effect upon his soul, in his own heart? |
A53721 | Hath the Holy Ghost wrought a serious Recognition in your hearts of all these things, and caused them to abide with you and upon you? |
A53721 | Hath the unspeakable multitude of the sins of your lives been set in order by the Law before you? |
A53721 | Hath this been done by a Word of Truth? |
A53721 | Have I been a Wilderness unto thee, or a land of darkness? |
A53721 | Have the wayes of Holyness, of Obedience, of Duties been so unto you? |
A53721 | Have they found it effectual to these purposes? |
A53721 | Have they had secret reasonings and contendings in their hearts about it? |
A53721 | Have we nothing to do but to lay the foundation? |
A53721 | Have you been convinced of the Universal Enmity that is in your hearts to the mind of God; and what it is to be at Enmity against God? |
A53721 | Have you been filled with perplexities and consternation of Spirit thereupon? |
A53721 | Have you given up your selves to this Grace? |
A53721 | Have you had fears dreads or terrors to wrestle withall? |
A53721 | Have you looked upon it as the price of his life, and the purchase of his blood? |
A53721 | Have you seen pardon flowing from the heart of the Father through the blood of the Son? |
A53721 | Have you stood at the shore of that infinite Ocean of Goodness and Love? |
A53721 | Have you then been made sensible of your condition by Nature; what it is to be alienated from the life of God, and to be obnoxious to his wrath? |
A53721 | Have your souls found supportment and relief from that Consideration? |
A53721 | He did it not upon our desire, request, or proposal, but meerly of his own Accord, and why should we contend with him about it? |
A53721 | He finds fault with the first; what then doth he do? |
A53721 | He is great and terrible, a marker of sin, and what shall I say unto him? |
A53721 | He quickly rebukes and recollects himself, saying, Why art thou cast down O my Soul, and why art thou disquieted within me? |
A53721 | He sayes of some sins of ungodly men, as I live this iniquity shall not be purged from you until ye dye? |
A53721 | He takes up their hearts to be his dwelling place; to what ends and purposes? |
A53721 | He that made the Eye, shall he not see? |
A53721 | He that planted the Ear, shall he not hear? |
A53721 | He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? |
A53721 | He that thus prescribes forgiveness to us, that bestows the Grace of it upon us, is there not forgiveness with him? |
A53721 | How comes it to be an occasion of his trouble? |
A53721 | How comes the Remembrance of God to be unto him a matter of trouble? |
A53721 | How could David keep silence, and yet roar all the day long? |
A53721 | How did they entertain these promises of God? |
A53721 | How doth David rouse up himself when he found his mind inclinable unto such a frame? |
A53721 | How doth God know? |
A53721 | How great then will be your destruction? |
A53721 | How infinite, how unspeakable must needs the Grace and Condescention of God in this matter be? |
A53721 | How is it then that you are thus delivered that you are no more sad? |
A53721 | How is the true God distinguished from these Gods by Reputation? |
A53721 | How light do most men make of pardon? |
A53721 | How little of the workings of this Spirit is found amongst us? |
A53721 | How long did his Afflictions continue? |
A53721 | How many Professors are members of these Chruches? |
A53721 | How many, things have the Romanists invented to deceive souls withal? |
A53721 | How much less on them that dwell in houses of Clay; whose foundation is in the dust, who are crushed before the moth? |
A53721 | How shall a man know that his humiliation is Evangelical, that his sorrow is according to God? |
A53721 | How shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation? |
A53721 | How then shall we apprehend it; how shall we conceive of it? |
A53721 | How then shall we obtain the knowledge of them? |
A53721 | How unconceivable is this glorious divine Property unto the thoughts and minds of men? |
A53721 | How was he prepared for the reception of this great mysterie in its first discovery? |
A53721 | How was this? |
A53721 | How weak are the waies and terms whereby they go about to express it? |
A53721 | However, what shame and confusion of face belongs to me for my wretched disingenuity, and ingratitude towards him? |
A53721 | I am sure, that eventually they prevail so far, that in the preaching of the Gospel, we have great cause to say, Lord who hath believed our report? |
A53721 | I have sinned, what shall I do unto thee, O thou preserver of men? |
A53721 | I speak unto them that are under the Law; Would you be free from that bondage, that galling yoke in dutyes of Obedience? |
A53721 | If God will have us saved in a way of meer mercy and forgiveness; If his Wisdom and Soveraignty be in it, shall we oppose him, and say we like it not? |
A53721 | If I have told you earthly things and ye believe not; how will you believe, if I tell you heavenly things? |
A53721 | If any one hath sinned, and is in depths and entanglements about it; what course shall he take, how shall he proceed to obtain deliverance? |
A53721 | If he did so, and had that blessed Issue, why should not we do so also? |
A53721 | If one man sin against another, the Judge shall judge him; but if a man sin against the Lord, who shall intreat for him? |
A53721 | If then you say you know it; Let us enquire how you came so to do? |
A53721 | If they have no Experience of what it affirms to be within them, what confidence can they have of the Reality of what it reveals to be without them? |
A53721 | If thou Lord shouldst mark iniquity, O Lord who shall stand? |
A53721 | If thou Lord shouldst mark iniquity, O Lord who shall stand? |
A53721 | If thou be Righteous what givest thou him, or what receiveth he at thine hand? |
A53721 | If thou, Lord, shouldst mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand? |
A53721 | If thou, Lord, shouldst mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand? |
A53721 | If we abide at a distance from God, we shall assuredly perish; who ever hardned himself against him and prospered? |
A53721 | If you are not, why do you give up your selves to despondencies? |
A53721 | If you do these things ye shall never fall: What never fall into sin? |
A53721 | If you sit still you perish, and if you rise to be doing, it will not be better; is there no hope left for our Souls? |
A53721 | In that case who shall take upon him to intercede for the sinner? |
A53721 | Is Grace capable of a conversion into Lust or Sin? |
A53721 | Is he fit to intercede for sinners that shall make it? |
A53721 | Is it any pleasure to the Almighty that thou art righteous, or is it gain unto him that thou makest thy wayes perfect? |
A53721 | Is it consistent with any Divine Excellency? |
A53721 | Is it for want of Mercy, Goodness, Grace or Patience in God? |
A53721 | Is it for want of the mightiest encouragements and most infallible Assurances that with God there is Forgiveness? |
A53721 | Is it in a future Amendment and Repentance? |
A53721 | Is it in the World? |
A53721 | Is it in the continuance of their lives? |
A53721 | Is it in their Duties, and Righteousness? |
A53721 | Is it in their Lusts, and sins, that they will yield them as much satisfaction and contentment as they shall need to desire? |
A53721 | Is it not Industry and Activity of spirit? |
A53721 | Is it not a common complaint that men presume on it, unto their eternal ruine? |
A53721 | Is it not evident that all their lives they seem industriously to take care that they may perish eternally? |
A53721 | Is it not for the most part from your sloth and despondency of spirit? |
A53721 | Is it not he who destroyed Aegypt with his Plagues, and drowned Pharaoh with his Host in the red Sea? |
A53721 | Is it not he, one of whose servants flew an hundred and fourscore and five thousand in Senacheribs Army in one night? |
A53721 | Is it not that he might by his patience, give us leave and space to get an interest in that forgiveness which he thus testifies to be in himself? |
A53721 | Is it not then incumbent on every one to be enquiring in what number he is likely to be found at the last day? |
A53721 | Is it nothing unto you to lose all your hopes, and all your Expectations which you have from hence? |
A53721 | Is it possible there should be mercy for such an one? |
A53721 | Is it saith he, to God, Good for thee that shouldst oppress, that thou shouldst despise the work of thy hands? |
A53721 | Is it the burning of our houses, the spoiling of our Goods, the ruine of our estates alone that our sins have deserved? |
A53721 | Is it through any defect in the Mediation of the Lord Christ? |
A53721 | Is not God holy, righteous, wise in what he hath done? |
A53721 | Is not this he who brought the Flood of old upon the world of ungodly men? |
A53721 | Is not this to make God an Idol? |
A53721 | Is not what he doth, good and holy because he doth it? |
A53721 | Is that the beginning of our Message unto him? |
A53721 | Is the New Covenant grown so connatural to flesh and blood? |
A53721 | Is the greatest secret that ever was revealed from the bosom of the Father, become so familiar and easie to the wisdom of the flesh? |
A53721 | Is there any need of their Testimony to the Truth, Faithfulness, and Goodness of God? |
A53721 | Is there any thing more to be done herein? |
A53721 | Is there forgiveness with him or no? |
A53721 | Is there no forgiveness with God? |
A53721 | Is there not Remunerative Justice in God, in a way of Bounty? |
A53721 | Is there not Vindictive Justice in him, in a way of severity? |
A53721 | Is this all? |
A53721 | Is this an Argument to keep thee from believing? |
A53721 | Is this any thing of that you do believe? |
A53721 | Is this giving all diligence? |
A53721 | Is this the frame of the most of men? |
A53721 | Is this the return that thou hast made unto him for all his love, his kindness, his consolations, mercies? |
A53721 | Is this the return, the requital, I have made unto him? |
A53721 | Is this thy kindness for him, thy love to him? |
A53721 | Is this thy kindness to thy Friend? |
A53721 | Is this working out our Salvation with fear and trembling? |
A53721 | It comes not in its own name, but in the name of him who appointed it; you will say then, is it so indeed? |
A53721 | It is an expression of exultation that he useth; but what is the Issue of it? |
A53721 | It is answered by the matter of the Proposal, who can stand? |
A53721 | It is to bring him to Repentance: What now, if he obtaine his end, and man cometh to that which is aimed at? |
A53721 | It must then be for our sakes; and for what? |
A53721 | It will then be said, doth not all this lye directly contrary to our daily experience? |
A53721 | Let Jesus Christ be heard to speak in this cause, let him come and judge? |
A53721 | Let us consider with whom we have to do; are not we and all our concernments in his hands, as the Clay in the hand of the Potter? |
A53721 | Many have not these terms revealed unto them; few find favour to accept of them; and of whom is it that you have obtained this peculiar mercy? |
A53721 | May I not justly fear, that the Lord will take his holy Spirit from me, until I be left without remedy? |
A53721 | May he not do what he will with his own? |
A53721 | May it not be feared that it is utterly otherwise? |
A53721 | May not an Intercessor be obtained to plead in the behalf of the guilty soul? |
A53721 | May we not then see a mixture of unspeakable patience, grace and mercy in every dispensation? |
A53721 | Methinks now Judas his Repentance looks like the young mans Obedience, who cryed out, all these things have I done; Is there any thing yet lacking? |
A53721 | No, saith the Apostle, God hath another design in his patience, and long- suffering; what is this? |
A53721 | No; Have they considered how the Objections that lye against it may be removed? |
A53721 | None can, saith the Holy Ghost; nor can it be spoken to their capacity; ah what shall their end be? |
A53721 | Nor is there the least relief to be had but from and by him; for who can forgive sins but God? |
A53721 | Not at all; But is it so indeed that this perswasion is thus bred in you, you know not how? |
A53721 | Notions there are many about it, and endless contentions, but what more? |
A53721 | Now how can any man apply himself hereunto, whilest he is altogether uncertain whether he hath received any principle of Living, Saving Grace, or no? |
A53721 | Now how do most men look upon forgiveness? |
A53721 | Now what is the Advantage of these things? |
A53721 | Now what is the way to receive that which comes from meer Soveraignty and prerogative? |
A53721 | Now what was Adams condition when the Revelation of forgiveness was first made to him? |
A53721 | O sinners, come and deal with God by Repentance: Doth it not openly speak forgiveness in God? |
A53721 | O that I had thousands of Ramms, and ten thousands of Rivers of Oyl to offer to him? |
A53721 | Oh how little is this really believed, even by them who make a profession of it? |
A53721 | Or are you so under the power of your Lusts, Ignorance, and Darkness, that you neglect and despise them? |
A53721 | Or by what other wayes or means have you come to that acquaintance with it, whereof you boast? |
A53721 | Or did you receive it from and by some seasonable word, of, or from the Scriptures spoken unto you? |
A53721 | Or do you not hope well in Generall upon the account of what you have done, and will doe? |
A53721 | Or have you general thoughts that Christ dyed for finners? |
A53721 | Or is it never fall totally from God? |
A53721 | Our sins are upon us, we pine away in them, and how should we then live? |
A53721 | Particular troublesome reflections upon your selves, when on any eruption of sin, Conscience accuses, rebukes, condemns? |
A53721 | Reason stands by amazed, and cryes how can these things be? |
A53721 | Saith such a soul in its self; foolish creature, hast thou thus requited the Lord? |
A53721 | Saith such a soul, How excellent, how precious is this forgiveness that is with God? |
A53721 | Secondly, But may not this Judge be intreated to pass by what he knows, and to deal favourably with the sinner? |
A53721 | Shall I curse God and dye? |
A53721 | Shall I do more than ever he required of any of the Sons of men? |
A53721 | Shall I take the course of the world, and seeing it will be no better, be wholly regardless of my latter end? |
A53721 | Shall all this be done for our sakes, and shall we undervalue it, or disesteem it? |
A53721 | Shall he not believe, or profess those things to be so, because he can not obtaine a blessed Experience of them? |
A53721 | Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right? |
A53721 | Shall she give over waiting on God, and say there is no hope? |
A53721 | Shall we call him unto an account? |
A53721 | Sinners are under the power of Satan; he layes a claim unto them, and by what means shall they be rescued from his interest and dominion? |
A53721 | So doth such a soul; the Love of God is not, Christ is not, and I whither shall I cause my sorrow to go? |
A53721 | Some we find crying with that wicked King, This evil is of the Lord, why should we wait any longer for him? |
A53721 | Such as he will not do often nor ordinarily; such as shall fill the world with dread and amazement: He will answer his people in terrible things? |
A53721 | Suppose this also; Let us go a little further and enquire whether you know any thing that yet remains of the like importance in this matter? |
A53721 | Suppose you are strangers to this also: What communion with God have you had about it in the blood of Christ? |
A53721 | That it should be an endeavour needless, or superfluous, to inquire into the Will of God about, and our own interest in these things, who can imagine? |
A53721 | That you would seriously consider, whether the forgiveness you rest on, and hope in, be that Gospel Forgiveness which we have before described? |
A53721 | The Indefiniteness of that Interrogation; Who shall stand? |
A53721 | The Law it knows; and Righteousness it knows, but as for forgiveness it sayes, whence is it? |
A53721 | The Rise and Spring of our forgiveness is in the heart and Gracious Nature of God, declared by his Name; Have you enquired seriously into this? |
A53721 | The Terms of it are unequall, how can any man believe them? |
A53721 | The last Lords day, such a one, or such a one preached to the same purpose; And what need it be insisted on now again, with so much importunity? |
A53721 | The sinner can not then expect any door of escape to be opened unto him? |
A53721 | The sinners in Sion are afraid, fearfulness hath surprised the Hypocrites; who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? |
A53721 | The soul in this frame is contented to wait the pleasure of God, as we shall see in the close of the Psalm? |
A53721 | The wayes of Wisdom are pleasantness, and her paths are peace? |
A53721 | Then shall you remember your own evil wayes, and your doings that were not good; When shall they do so? |
A53721 | There being no forgiveness for them, what should move them to repent? |
A53721 | These things are plainly, openly, frequently insisted on in the Gospel? |
A53721 | This is called speaking against God; they spake against God; they said, Can he furnish a Table in the wilderness? |
A53721 | This makes him tremble, and cry out, O Lord who shall stand? |
A53721 | This was the Way whereby he rose out of his depths and escaped out of his entanglements? |
A53721 | Thou numbrest my steps, dost thou not watch over my sin? |
A53721 | Thoughts of sinning against the Love of God, managed by the Holy Ghost; what shall I say? |
A53721 | Thy houses are burned, but perhaps thy goods are saved; is there no grace, no goodness therein? |
A53721 | To have no other Reception with God, than if all this while you had been wallowing in your sins and lusts? |
A53721 | To have pardon, forgiveness, life, and blessed Eternity on believing, who can rest in it? |
A53721 | To what end doth the Lord set forth and declare his glorious Greatness and Power? |
A53721 | To what end? |
A53721 | Upon the death of her Son, which it seems was some what extraordinary, she cryed out unto the Prophet, What have I to do with thee thou Man of God? |
A53721 | Was it by preaching of the Word unto you, or by reading of it, or meditating upon it? |
A53721 | Was it by vertue of any especial personal priviledge that was peculiar unto them? |
A53721 | Was there any Reason, why he should do so, designing to do all things for himself and for his own glory? |
A53721 | We come with our Report of forgiveness; but who believes it? |
A53721 | We must say then unto such heartless Complainers, as God did to Joshuah, Get you up, why lye you thus upon your faces? |
A53721 | Well may poor sinners cry out, Lord who shall stand? |
A53721 | Well then, if God will hasten it, may not we hasten to it? |
A53721 | Well, what shall be the issue thereof? |
A53721 | What Argument doth he make use of to free them from their unbelief, and to rebuke their fears? |
A53721 | What a life of Joy, Rest, Peace, and Consolation do they lead? |
A53721 | What an easie thing is it to be acquainted with it? |
A53721 | What are his thoughts hereupon? |
A53721 | What are these joyful tydings? |
A53721 | What ayles the Man? |
A53721 | What can remain of distrust in such a case? |
A53721 | What can these thoughts and counsels be, but about a way for their deliverance, which could no otherwise be, but by the forgiveness of sins? |
A53721 | What can we now object against what is thus confirmed? |
A53721 | What course did you take? |
A53721 | What course then shall she take? |
A53721 | What course will you fix upon, for the obtaining of these Ends? |

A53721 | What hath any soul in the World to object against them? |

A53721 | When he giveth quietness, who can give trouble? |
A53721 | When it is, as it were, laid out of the way by sin and unbelief, do they give themselves no rest, untill it be afresh discovered unto them? |
A53721 | When was this done? |
A53721 | Whence is it then that there is such a bleating and bellowing to the contrary amongst them? |
A53721 | Whence then is it said, that God appeared unto them by the name of Elshaddai, but not by the name of Jehovah? |
A53721 | Whence therefore doth it appear, whence may we infallibly conclude, that God will redeem his Israel from all their iniquities? |
A53721 | Where have you found ease and peace? |
A53721 | Where is he, and what doth he? |
A53721 | Where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear? |
A53721 | Where then is Boasting? |
A53721 | Wherefore did this glorious Son of God come and Tabernacle amongst poor sinners? |
A53721 | Wherefore doth he reject and lay aside this Covenant and Promise to make another, and do so accordingly? |
A53721 | Wherefore the Law is holy, and the commandment holy and just and good; was then that which was good made death unto me? |
A53721 | Wherewith shall I come before the Lord, and how my self before the high God? |
A53721 | Who amongst us shall dwell with everlasting burnings? |
A53721 | Who can stand? |

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

A55305 | 51. and how was that? |
A55305 | 52? |
A55305 | 5? |
A55305 | 5? |
A55305 | 6. and who should rule but the only wise? |
A55305 | 6. but doth he so in all? |
A55305 | 6? |
A55305 | 7. and smote and wounded him for our iniquities; he paid down his humane Nature in doing and suffering, and what could the Law desire of him more? |
A55305 | 7? |
A55305 | 8. and if the light be darkness, how great is that darkness? |
A55305 | 8? |
A55305 | 9? |
A55305 | 9? |
A55305 | ? |
A55305 | After what manner is it wrought? |
A55305 | After what manner it is wrought? |
A55305 | Again; What is it for God to work the Act of Willing, so as men do not resist, but to work it in a way of dependence upon Man''s Will? |
A55305 | Again; they urge that, What could have been done more to my vineyard, that I have not done in it? |
A55305 | All men, if they believe, shall be saved; saved, but how? |
A55305 | All this is but 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, much fancy, and why should an immortal Soul be set upon it? |
A55305 | Also the Objectors may be asked, Doth not God foreknow that the Creature set in such a state and order of things will finally sin? |
A55305 | And after all this, is the Will in aequilibrio? |
A55305 | And again; Posset Deus( saith he of wicked men) ipsorum voluntatem in bonum convertere, quoniam Omnipotens est; posset planè, cur ergo non fecit? |
A55305 | And are Sufferings all the Image of Christ? |
A55305 | And are all those which are called to Sufferings Justified and Glorified? |
A55305 | And can there be less of the beauty of providence in the Spiritual world than in the natural? |
A55305 | And how doth God reserve or make men to remain unto himself? |
A55305 | And how irrational is it also? |
A55305 | And how then is not Predestination to these? |
A55305 | And how then without eternal Decrees can there be any foundation of Futures? |
A55305 | And if Christ''s errand into the World was to execute Election, then how did he merit it? |
A55305 | And if he did not order it to his own Glory, how should Light come out of Darkness, and Order out of Confusions? |
A55305 | And if not, how can it actually turn to God, seeing that is actus ordinis supernaturalis? |
A55305 | And if so, how is it retained to the Father? |
A55305 | And if there were but one great Ear or Organ of Hearing common to all, how would Christ''s Ministers always be filling it with Gospel? |
A55305 | And is all this glory of words poured out upon a mere posse; which doth not so much as encline to Conversion? |
A55305 | And is there no Emphasis of Love? |
A55305 | And is this for God to chuse like himself? |
A55305 | And may a Will renewed with the holy Ghost, and right set by gracious Principles do thus? |
A55305 | And seeing every Change is a kind of Death, must not the Deity suffer, and as it were die in this Mutation? |
A55305 | And what Worlds can not the Life of God purchase? |
A55305 | And what are these wishes? |
A55305 | And what for just nothing, for a sic volo? |
A55305 | And what hindred you from turning unto me? |
A55305 | And what is all this but the executing of the Decree of Election? |
A55305 | And what is the Calling following upon Predestination? |
A55305 | And what is the Justification which hangs upon Calling? |
A55305 | And what is this Will and Mercy but God''s gratuitous design of Grace and Glory to his Elect? |
A55305 | And what nakedness can not the Righteousness of God cover? |
A55305 | And what would not a Saint do, if but left in manu consilii sui? |
A55305 | And when he was risen from the dead, he raises up the Faith of his Disciples, Why do thoughts arise in your hearts? |
A55305 | And whence came all these numbers and hosts of Beings? |
A55305 | And where in all this Epistle is the word[ justifie] so taken? |
A55305 | And who is he but God the Creator? |
A55305 | And who set you there at first? |
A55305 | And why is it not free, if determined? |
A55305 | And why so here? |
A55305 | And why then do you call him dead? |
A55305 | And why would you not? |
A55305 | And, Ne dicas Deo interrogando, Quae est voluntas tua? |
A55305 | Are and Glory no part thereof? |
A55305 | Are not all Souls his own, and may he not chuse which he pleases? |
A55305 | Are not all the Promises Yea and Amen in him? |
A55305 | Are not here the noblest and highest Inclinations set forth unto us? |
A55305 | Are there no strains of free Grace? |
A55305 | Are these his Image also? |
A55305 | Are they finite or infinite? |
A55305 | Are those Spirits made perfect in every thing else but that? |
A55305 | As to the first Quaere, Whether Christ died for all men? |
A55305 | At enim gratiâ ille talis& tantus est, cur diversa est gratia, ubi natura communisest? |
A55305 | But admit that these Graces were his own too; yet how can finite Graces satisfie for an infinite Evil? |
A55305 | But further; Is not Faith the Grace of Union with Christ? |
A55305 | But further; how did he do the Will of God? |
A55305 | But here I shall be asked whether that posse convertere be not such a Principle? |
A55305 | But how absurd is this? |
A55305 | But how came you into such ranks? |
A55305 | But how can he do so, if as to the Act of Election he be under the Pre- determining Will of Man? |
A55305 | But how doth he blind and harden them? |
A55305 | But how far will he remove it? |
A55305 | But how unscriptural is this? |
A55305 | But if Christ no way died for all men, how came the Ministers Commission to be so large? |
A55305 | But if God electing did not consider men as sinners lying in the corrupt mass, what need was there of Mercy where there was no misery? |
A55305 | But if Sufferings were all Christ''s Image, yet are all Sufferings his Image? |
A55305 | But if all the rest might consist, yet where is the Efficacy of it? |
A55305 | But if he did, what would become of them? |
A55305 | But if one Creature could steal away all its Fellow- creatures from him, yet who shall turn back his Almighty Hand? |
A55305 | But if the Will can not turn aside to such false Beatitudes, yet may it not suspend its Act as to the true? |
A55305 | But if there be, how can he permit sin, seeing he is bound to give such Grace as will actually prevent it? |
A55305 | But if this also might be satisfied, yet where is the Grace of it? |
A55305 | But if this may be salved by the Divine Prescience, yet where is the Sovereignty of it? |
A55305 | But is this so strange a thing( will you say?) |
A55305 | But now if Christ by his Merits do found the very Decree of Election, is not the Order of working in the sacred Trinity inverted? |
A55305 | But now if Christ died alike or equally for all, what becomes of his precious Blood? |
A55305 | But now without gracious Principles in the Heart, how can the Heart be right or pure? |
A55305 | But on the other side how cogent is the argument? |
A55305 | But since you came over, where do you stand? |
A55305 | But suppose they could all be induced to become a Sacrifice for us, would the holy One open his Eyes upon such a Satisfaction? |
A55305 | But to go on; What is the Predestination here, but to a Conformity to the Image of Christ? |
A55305 | But what a perplexed Labyrinth of words is here? |
A55305 | But what is our most congruous conception thereof? |
A55305 | But what is this interpretation but mere a perverting of Scripture? |
A55305 | But what''s the meaning of this? |
A55305 | But whence had you all that truth and goodness which is in you? |
A55305 | But where in all the Scripture doth the word[ Calling] being put absolutely, and without such addition, ever signifie a Call to Sufferings? |
A55305 | But where is the holiness and obedience of the Saints recorded, but in the very Decree of Election? |
A55305 | But whither can he turn? |
A55305 | But who dares add an[ it] to Gods Word, and in this Text to the two links and not to the former? |
A55305 | But why a Philanthropy rather than a Philangely? |
A55305 | But would all the Apostles bring forth fruit? |
A55305 | But you''l say, How can these things be? |
A55305 | But you''l say, Is not Eternal Life also a Reward of Faith and Holiness? |
A55305 | But you''l say, Is not Man a living Creature? |
A55305 | But you''l say, Might they not also resist him as to his internal Operations? |
A55305 | But you''l say, the Passive Obedience is only meant there; but if so, why doth the Apostle oppose it to Adam''s Actual Disobedience? |
A55305 | But your Beings being of such different sorts, how came you to be so kind each to other? |

A55305 | By the very nature of Preservation, what is it but continuata Creatio? |
A55305 | By what way is this Evangelical Light parted? |
A55305 | Can any Creature hinder the purpose of the Lord of hosts? |
A55305 | Can any part of the Divine Essence be discinded in such a Generation? |
A55305 | Can any thing in the World hang more purely on the Will of God than a Lot? |
A55305 | Can he wear off his Chains with repentant Tears, or work them off with after- holiness? |
A55305 | Can it be so brutishly free at so dear a rate as to be eternally miserable? |
A55305 | Can it go before its Leader? |
A55305 | Can it guide its Guide? |
A55305 | Can it thus wave Happiness and embrace mere nothing in the room thereof? |
A55305 | Can the Captive do ought in it? |
A55305 | Can the Will cease to be a rational and free Appetite? |
A55305 | Can the hidden man be ever hid, the good treasure ever sealed, and the glory within ever shut up? |
A55305 | Can the righteous God, who judges according to truth, impute Sin to his holy one? |
A55305 | Christ suffered between two Thieves, a Type of the Elect and Reprobate World; but who dare say that he had as much respect to the one as to the other? |
A55305 | Christ''s Manhood did not anoint it self, and shall free Will turn it self? |
A55305 | Consider what a kind of Creation the production of gracious Principles is: Is it every way pure Creation? |
A55305 | Consider what the Instrument is,''t is the Word of God; the two grand Truths therein are the Law and Gospel, and what are these in their eternal Idea? |
A55305 | Consider who is the principal Agent, who but the Almighty? |
A55305 | Could it not curse the Sinner? |
A55305 | Could not the Blood of God have washed out the blackest spots of fallen Angels? |
A55305 | Could that humane Nature( conceived by the holy Ghost, and inseparably united to the God- head) could that also transgress? |
A55305 | Couldst thou not have given him some inward dispositions to Conversion? |
A55305 | Couldst thou not make a new heart in every one of us? |
A55305 | Cur dixit stultus, non est Deus? |
A55305 | Did he will that it should be paid for all men, and so be a sufficient Price for them? |
A55305 | Do we make void the Law by Faith, or by its Object our Redeemer and Redemption? |
A55305 | Do you doubt whether I am he who paid down the Price of Redemption? |
A55305 | Do you scruple whether that Price were accepted of God or not? |
A55305 | Dost thou go on frowardly in the way of thy heart? |
A55305 | Dost thou oppose the precious Gospel? |
A55305 | Doth Sin profer a World? |
A55305 | Doth he drop out of the state of Grace without any apostasie, or continue in it without any differencing quality? |
A55305 | Doth he in hindring sin offer violence to man''s Liberty, as in permitting it he leaves him thereunto? |
A55305 | Doth he yet destinate them to Eternal life without a Mediator? |
A55305 | Doth not Christ dwell in the heart by faith? |
A55305 | Doth not that evidently import a Decree, that whosoever believes shall be saved? |
A55305 | Doth not the Father, even in his Eternal Election, work from the Son? |
A55305 | Doth not the Will turn Brute in closing with sensual Lusts? |
A55305 | Doth thy Will hang back? |
A55305 | Even moral Vertues dispose to moral Acts, how much more do supernatural Principles dispose to spiritual Acts? |
A55305 | External Revelation is all over the Church, why is not the inward holy Unction so too? |
A55305 | For all the Wolves and the Leopards, yet( saith God) they shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy Mountain; why so? |
A55305 | For whom it was paid? |
A55305 | For whom was this Price paid? |
A55305 | Foreknowing this, doth not he willingly and actually set the Creature in that state and order? |
A55305 | From or upon this setting the Creature in that state and order, doth not its final Sin infallibly follow? |
A55305 | God says, No flesh shall glory in it self, and shall Man''s Will vaunt it thus? |
A55305 | God will not dwell in men whether they will or not: Very true; but if Almighty Power connot make men willing, what can do it? |
A55305 | Had all the Jews equal Grace with the Jews given to Christ, with the Jews drawn by the Father, with the Jews chosen out of the world? |
A55305 | Had not he as Man all the Essentials of Liberty? |
A55305 | Hath he not a Reason and reliques of Light in it? |
A55305 | Hath he not a free Will and Seeds of Moral Vertue in it? |
A55305 | Hath not the new heart, which hath eternal life in it, a propensity to Acts of spiritual life? |
A55305 | Have not they all the essentials of Liberty? |
A55305 | Hence it appears, that that Expression[ What could have been done more?] |
A55305 | Hence the Will hath no whither else to turn: But if it turn no whither else, may it not suspend its Act as to Christ? |
A55305 | Hence the entire Essence is in the Father; and the entire Essence is in the Son too; and what if it could not be thus in a finite Essence? |
A55305 | Here God himself engages to work all saving Graces in us: Are our hearts hard? |
A55305 | His power is insuperable, therefore none can stay his hand; his Sovereignty is unaccountable, therefore none can say, What dost thou? |
A55305 | How can it chuse but reject it as evil? |
A55305 | How can such a grape of Heaven grow upon the thorns of an unregenerate heart? |
A55305 | How can that Blood of Christ, which merited alike for all men, redeem one man from another? |
A55305 | How can the Purpose and Promise of God stand? |
A55305 | How can there be life in Christ for thos ● for whom he never died? |
A55305 | How can they fall short of eternal Rest for whom it was never purchased? |
A55305 | How can they recrucifie the Son of God for whom he was never crucified? |
A55305 | How can this deadly wound of Corruption there ever be healed but by gracious Principles? |
A55305 | How can those men receive Grace in vain for whom it was never procured? |
A55305 | How could God foreknow, that is, fore- love them who loved him before? |
A55305 | How could the True God enter such protestations, if the great promise of a new- heart hang in suspence upon mans actual consent? |
A55305 | How doth he chuse them unto himself, who by Faith are his own before? |
A55305 | How else is the Sign of the true God a true Sign? |
A55305 | How far or in what sence may the Word be called a Means or Instrument thereof? |
A55305 | How many have been forced by the power of it to fall down, and worship, and say, God is in it of a truth? |
A55305 | How many millions of times, after their Conversion, might he have seen their way and damned them? |
A55305 | How much Entity is there independent from the Being of Belings? |
A55305 | How much better were it for him to spot himself with an assumed Cherubin, than to take Flesh into his glorious Person? |
A55305 | How much of Glory and spiritual Miracle breaks forth in the Souls of Men? |
A55305 | How often have I called and you would not hear? |
A55305 | How should they eat and drink for whom the Lamb was never slain? |
A55305 | How soon would our Debts empty all their Coffers, and God''s Wrath break all their backs, and who should redeem these Redeemers? |
A55305 | How then came you over that vast infinite Gulf which lies between Nothing and Being? |
A55305 | How then is it Generation? |
A55305 | How was his Obedience elevated into Infinity, and transfigured into glory by his Godhead? |
A55305 | How, but by glorifying Christ unto the Will? |
A55305 | I answer, God willed it to be so, but how? |
A55305 | I answer, that our humane Nature was in him, and why might it not sin there? |
A55305 | I argue from the Event following upon Christ''s Death; some men do believe, when others draw back, and whence comes this distinguishing Faith? |
A55305 | I have sinned, but these sheep what have they done? |
A55305 | I know not what could be more emphatical to point out the Universality of Redemption? |
A55305 | I will enquire how far or in what sence it may be called so? |
A55305 | If Cain do well, shall he not be accepted? |
A55305 | If Christ did no way die for all men, which way shall the truth of these general Promises be made out? |
A55305 | If Christ died for all men, why is not the Gospel revealed to them? |
A55305 | If Election be founded on foreseen Faith and Perseverance, where is the Eternity of it? |
A55305 | If Faith and Repentance are the gifts of God, may he not suspend them? |
A55305 | If Faith go before Election, then how doth God chuse them out of the World, who by Faith are out of it already? |
A55305 | If God be bound to afford such Grace, where is the Charter of that engagement? |
A55305 | If God do not work Conversion in an insuperable way, then what doth he produce towards it but a mere posse convertere? |
A55305 | If Jehovah withdraw, who can keep Being in the Creature? |
A55305 | If Liberty do essentially consist in such an Indifferency, then what becomes of divine Providence? |
A55305 | If Liberty do essentially consist in such an Indifferency, then what shall we say to Jesus Christ on Earth? |
A55305 | If Liberty do essentially consist in such an Indifferency, what say we to the blessed Saints in Heaven? |
A55305 | If Liberty do essentially consist in such an indifferency, then how shall the divine Prescience be salved? |
A55305 | If Man''s actual Turn do not infallibly follow upon God''s turning Grace, what truth is there in these[ And''s] which couple both together? |
A55305 | If a Judas believe, shall he not be justified? |
A55305 | If an actual Church, what need he purchase it? |
A55305 | If antecedently, What is the Calling according to purpose? |
A55305 | If any reply, But how could we sin in Adam? |
A55305 | If arbitrary, how is Non- election unjust? |
A55305 | If finite, then numerable, and there was a beginning; if infinite, then how past? |
A55305 | If he be not bound thereunto, where is the Injustice of that suspension? |
A55305 | If he make the Word sufficient to regenerate, who can gainsay it? |
A55305 | If he were only on the Throne of Heaven, how should the Footstool of the Earth be ordered? |
A55305 | If his hand only spanned the celestial Spheres, what should the Sea do? |
A55305 | If it be not so perfectly designative, how is it a determinate Counsel? |
A55305 | If it be only an outward Sign or Appearance, and there be no Counterpane or Prototype thereof within the divine Will, how is it a true Sign? |
A55305 | If it be so perfectly designative, is not the Decree of Election at least included therein? |
A55305 | If it be yet further demanded, To what purpose is it to argue which way Reprobates shall be saved, seeing none of them ever did or will believe? |
A55305 | If it do not, whither will it turn? |
A55305 | If not, where is the supposed Liberty? |
A55305 | If so, then why did he sanctifie himself for them? |
A55305 | If so, where is the divine Providence? |
A55305 | If so, why did he die for them? |
A55305 | If so, why did he give himself for it? |
A55305 | If so, why did he lay down his life for them? |
A55305 | If the Calling be to Sufferings, are they not justified before that Calling? |
A55305 | If the Jew ask us where is Christ? |
A55305 | If the Will be not changed by regenerating Grace, how is it constituted in ordine agentium supernaturalium? |
A55305 | If the Will do not depend upon the Understanding, where doth it stand but upon the Base of its own Independency? |
A55305 | If the active obedience of Christ apart make us perfectly righteous, where is the glory of the passive? |
A55305 | If there be any such, where is the Remonstrants Equality of Grace? |
A55305 | If there be no Habits or Principles of Grace, how can the Natural man''s deadly Wound, I mean Original Corruption ever be healed? |
A55305 | If there be no habits or principles of Grace, what is that that makes the grand difference between a godly and an ungodly man? |
A55305 | If there be no such Law, why may he not suspend it? |
A55305 | If there be such a compensatory Price paid for Sin, where is free Remission? |
A55305 | If these had no beginning, then what shall we say of the Years, Days and Minutes past? |
A55305 | If they miscarry, how many thousand thousand Worlds are there in the bosom of his Omnipotence? |
A55305 | In Regeneration the Law is writ in the heart, and how can that be but through the Understanding? |
A55305 | In and through whom it is done? |
A55305 | In order of existence, Faith is first before Salvation; but was it first also in intention? |
A55305 | In order of nature, Faith is first before Adoption; but was it first also in intention? |
A55305 | In production the Sun was first before the Beams; but was it first also in intention? |
A55305 | In production, the Chaos was first before the complete World, but was it so in intention? |
A55305 | In short; God''s Election must be either arbitrary or necessary; If necessary, how is his Election free? |
A55305 | In what Order these are designed? |
A55305 | In what manner are these things designed? |
A55305 | In what manner these are designed? |
A55305 | In what order are these things designed? |
A55305 | Is it a Calling to Sufferings? |
A55305 | Is it because the holy Spirit works not equally in all, or because the holy Spirit is resisted in some? |
A55305 | Is it because the holy Spirit works not equally in all? |
A55305 | Is it not a plain efflux or product from the Decree of God? |
A55305 | Is it not written there, I will circumcise the heart, and is not Unbelief flesh? |
A55305 | Is it not written there, I will give a new heart, and is not Unbelief the heart and life of the old Man, and Faith of the new? |
A55305 | Is it not written there, I will put my Spirit within you, and is not the Spirit a spirit of faith, and faith a fruit of the Spirit? |
A55305 | Is it not written there, I will take away the heart of stone, and is not Unbelief a part of that stone? |
A55305 | Is not Faith a Grace of the Spirit? |
A55305 | Is not Faith comprized within the Covenant of Grace? |
A55305 | Is not Faith the Mother- grace of all? |
A55305 | Is not all Grace and Glory his own, and may he not do with his own what he pleases? |
A55305 | Is not he the Mediator and purchaser of the whole? |
A55305 | Is not the Son the first Origine of our Salvation? |
A55305 | Is that the thing that is wanting in Heaven? |
A55305 | Is the Understanding all? |
A55305 | Is the Understanding determinate? |
A55305 | Is the Understanding pendulous? |
A55305 | Is there no import of singular respect and affection in all these Expressions? |
A55305 | Is thine Ear deaf? |
A55305 | Is thy Heart barred and shut up against God? |
A55305 | It appears by the Will of Christ: when he paid down his Obedience, what was his meaning? |
A55305 | It is written in the Gospel, Believe and thou shalt be justified; but in what Gospel is it written, Believe and thou shalt be elected? |
A55305 | It is written in the Gospel, Relieve and thou shalt be saved; but in what Gospel is it written, Believe and thou shalt be Elected? |
A55305 | Jus Proprietatis, as God, who should redeem a Creature but the true Owner? |
A55305 | Lastly; If God did not bound sin, would not that Moral Monster soon devour all Religion and Humanity? |
A55305 | Let the Apostle answer, What if some did not believe? |
A55305 | May not he concurr to the Material Act of sin? |
A55305 | May not he marshal objects? |
A55305 | May not he suspend his Efficacious Grace? |
A55305 | May not the Will hang back for all that? |
A55305 | Might not his boundless Mercy have saved the selftempted Devils? |
A55305 | Might not the Scripture rather have said, that the Elect were given by the Son to the Father, than by the Father to the Son? |
A55305 | Misericordiâ Domini plena est terra; quare non dictum est, plenum est coelum? |
A55305 | Must not God''s eternal Prescience fall a doubting and faltring about every Future? |
A55305 | Must not God''s own dwelling- house, even his glorious Eternity, sink and fall to the ground? |
A55305 | Must not the Well of life break forth, the seed and life of God spring up, and the divine nature shew forth it self? |
A55305 | Nay, in such a case, must there not fall a Change upon the very Being of God himself? |
A55305 | Nay, where in all the Scripture doth this word import an inward quality or disposition? |
A55305 | Neither lastly is there any loss in Christ''s purchase, for what did he purchase? |
A55305 | Neither will it salve the business, to say, there is a Voluntas signi in all this; for what is Voluntas signi, if it be not signum Voluntatis? |

A55305 | Nonne filium Dei unicum foemina illa gratiâ plena concepit? |
A55305 | Nothing less than the holy Spirit, which formed Christ in the Womb, can form him in the Heart: but shall they be begotten by the holy Spirit? |
A55305 | Now Christ( the Power of God) came to supply this weakness: but how doth he do it? |
A55305 | Now how doth God permit sin''s Finality, but by that blinding and hardning of Reprobates, which is so frequent in Scripture? |
A55305 | Now how far doth Christ intercede in Heaven? |
A55305 | Now how is it possible that all men should be thus ▪ redeemed? |
A55305 | Now if it be impossible that any thing should begin to be future, then all futures must needs be Eternal; and if so, whence are they? |
A55305 | Now in all these places of the Acts, the word signifying appointing or ordaining, why should it be taken otherwise in this controverted Text? |

A55305 | Or if not, can the whole be given to the Son? |
A55305 | Or is it because the Spirit is resisted in some? |
A55305 | Or may it be rational and free without an Understanding? |
A55305 | Ought not supernatural acts to issue forth in as great connaturalness to their Principles as natural? |
A55305 | Our Saviour quotes that in the Prophets[ And they shall be all taught of God] and and what follows upon that teaching? |

A55305 | Shall the Brutal World be a Sacrifice for the Rational? |

A55305 | Should God ask, Where wast thou when I laid the foundation of my Church in my divine Decrees? |
A55305 | Should he ask on, Who made thee to differ from another? |
A55305 | Should he ask, Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Predestination, that it shall not cause a Spring of Faith and Holiness in my Church? |
A55305 | Should he yet ask, Who hath known the mind of the Lord, or been his Counseller? |
A55305 | Should there not be as sweet an order in the new Creature as in the old? |
A55305 | Solomon''s Law or Execution, or else Shimei''s passage? |
A55305 | Such a Knowledge being really actuated, can the Will turn aside to other Objects for its happiness? |
A55305 | Surely not a tittle of his Obedience was irrationally done, nor a drop of his Blood irrationally shed; what then was his meaning in it? |
A55305 | The Devils, as full of malice as they are against, Christ, are never said to do it, and why are men charged with it? |
A55305 | The Gospel calls and knocks at every door, why are not the Demonstrations of the Spirit, and the drawings of the Father in every heart? |
A55305 | The Gospel says in general, Whosoever will, may take the Water of Life freely, why doth not God work the Will in all? |
A55305 | The Gospel sounds in every Ear, why do not all hear and learn of the Father? |
A55305 | The King''s heart( and who can be freer than he?) |
A55305 | The Lord of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disanul it? |

A55305 | The Spring then of eternal futures can not be found any where but in the Eternal God, and where in him? |
A55305 | The Understanding still points at Christ; Art thou in darkness? |
A55305 | The Will of fallen Man what is it but a very Shoal of inordinate Affections, a Womb of evil Concupiscence? |
A55305 | The donation of Faith and Repentance must be Grace or Debt; If Debt, why is not the Veil off from every Eye, and the Stone out of every Heart? |
A55305 | The forlorn Captive can by no means help himself, and what shall he do? |

A55305 | They beseech men to be reconciled to God, but how shall they be reconciled for whom Christ paid no Price at all? |
A55305 | They call and cry out to men to come to Christ that they may have life, but how can they have life for whom Christ was no Surety in his Death? |
A55305 | They command men to repent that their sins may be blotted out, but how can their sins be blotted out for whom Christ was not made sin? |
A55305 | This Anointing is an inward Ecclesiastes crying out, All is vanity; Doth it profer Honors or Riches or Pleasures? |
A55305 | This Principle rests upon him as a King, able to put all his enemies under his feet: Are there strong holds of Sin in us? |
A55305 | This Thesis overturns the Liberty of the Will; for if the Will be determined by the Understanding, how is it free? |
A55305 | This Thesis takes away the necessity of gracious Principles in the Will; what need of any there, seeing the Will is so good a follower? |

A55305 | Turn ye, turn ye, why will ye die? |
A55305 | Unto which I answer; If that Promise be Voluntas signi, what doth it signifie? |
A55305 | Very well; but what Grace doth the Text speak of? |
A55305 | Was it not to dissolve the Chains of Sin, open the Prison of Wrath, and spoil and triumph over the bloody Jaylor Satan? |
A55305 | Was it not to procure the standing of the Body of Nature, the shedding down of the Spirit of Grace, and the opening a door to Heaven and eternal Life? |
A55305 | Was not all his Obedience perfectly free? |
A55305 | Was not the Almighty Spirit of Grace able to melt a Devil into Repentance? |

A55305 | Will they not, if God write his Laws in their hearts and inward parts? |
A55305 | You will say, He would have fulfilled them in all, but that men themselves will not: But what a strange word is this[ they will not]? |
A55305 | You will say, What remedy for all this? |
A55305 | You''l say, Is this so absurd? |
A55305 | You''l say,''t is in the Person of Christ our Redeemer: But how is it there? |
A55305 | and God''s sovereignty, hath not the potter power over the clay? |
A55305 | and are they not extensive to all men? |
A55305 | and can it do thus when a right- set Understanding is really actuated, and it self truly principled with Grace? |
A55305 | and can there be a worse Stone than this? |
A55305 | and do not these denominate him gracious in whom they are? |
A55305 | and doth not the Scripture call men Beasts upon that account? |
A55305 | and how then can that be decreed as a Reward without a preconsideration of these? |
A55305 | and if free, how determined? |
A55305 | and if not 〈 ◊ 〉 way doth their Unbelief give God the lye? |
A55305 | and is not a posse peccare from him also? |
A55305 | and unless this be cut off, can there be a true Circumcision? |
A55305 | and when he says so, who may pare off ought, and say, it was not all but some? |
A55305 | and whence is this approach but from God and God electing? |
A55305 | and where are his Sufferings alone so stiled in Scripture? |
A55305 | and why doth he say Obedience in general? |
A55305 | and yet did not his humane Will indeclinably follow his divine? |
A55305 | being only streams from God, as light from the Sun; If the Sun be gone, who can keep light in the Air? |
A55305 | but if there be, how are these things connected? |
A55305 | could they have it quite out of God''s Way? |
A55305 | couldst thou not at least have inwardly enlightned every one? |
A55305 | couldst thou not write the Law in every Heart? |
A55305 | cur, nisi quia stultus est? |
A55305 | cùm sim quod audio, i d est, homo, quod est& ille de quo ago, cur non sim quod& ille? |
A55305 | doth it not directly resist the Blood and Righteousness of Christ? |
A55305 | he is a root of fatness and sweetness; Art thou a lost and half- damned Creature? |
A55305 | he is a sun of righteousness; Art thou in death? |
A55305 | he is but as other men are, and how can he be in it? |
A55305 | he is the resurrection and the life; Art thou a withered branch? |
A55305 | he''l give us hearts of flesh capable thereof; are our hearts void of God''s Law? |
A55305 | he''l roll away the stone from them; do our hearts resist holy impressions? |
A55305 | his hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back? |
A55305 | how Resurrection? |
A55305 | how, but by giving of Faith unto them? |
A55305 | if a better Grace of the Spirit, how can it precede such a Mother- grace as Faith? |
A55305 | if the passive obedience of Christ apart purchase all for us, where is the glory of the active? |
A55305 | is not Unbelief of our Spirit, and Faith of Gods? |
A55305 | knocked and you would not open? |
A55305 | moved and you would not stir? |
A55305 | must therefore Faith reject it? |
A55305 | neither is possible; he back- slides not from God, and how can he be out of the state of Grace? |
A55305 | offered Christ and Heaven and you would not accept? |
A55305 | or can it do so, and the summū malū not fall into its embraces? |
A55305 | or draw back from the Kingdom of Heaven which never approached unto them? |
A55305 | or from what other Scripture can it be demonstrated? |
A55305 | or neglect Salvation for whom it was never prepared? |
A55305 | or trample on that precious Blood which was never shed for them? |
A55305 | or was it a Church in his Intention? |
A55305 | or what is so properly such as his Active Obedience? |
A55305 | or who shall descend into the deep? |
A55305 | quia noluit; cur noluerit? |
A55305 | quid credidit? |
A55305 | quid egit ante? |
A55305 | quid petivit, ut ad hanc ineffabilem excellentiam perveniret? |
A55305 | quomodo isti inde delentur, ubi nunquam scripti sunt? |
A55305 | saith the Soul, all this is but thick clay, and why should I lade my Eagle- affections with it? |
A55305 | says the Soul, this is he who made the Robe of Righteousness for me, and how much love was there in every thread of it? |
A55305 | that one and the same thing should be imported in both? |
A55305 | then Christ died for all men; or did he will that it should not be paid for all men, but only be sufficient for them in its intrinsecal value? |
A55305 | therefore suffer me to parly their Original out of their own mouths, Creatures, whence came you? |
A55305 | they are all Blackamoors to this all- lovely Jesus; What, to repentant Tears? |
