A41783But if we should allow the Topick to be good, yet how will it be verified?
A41783Either baptism produces spiritual effects, or it produces them not: If it produces not any, why is such contention about it?
A41783Have they received of the Holy Ghost since the believed?
A41783Hence observe a finall determination of the matter in question, If any ask when the gifts of prophysie, knowledge and tongues& c. Shall cease?

A41783Must God be tyed, and Christian Religion transact her misteries by proportion and complyance with the Law of the Romanes?

A41783Or who will tell us when these days expired?
A41783Quid ergo fostivat innoceus alis ad remissionem p ● ccatorum?
A41783What hinders any man from a quick consent at the first representation of these plain reasonings and authorityes?
A41783What is the due act, or outward form to be used in this sollemn rite of holy baptism?

A41783must the child bear the unbelief of 〈 ◊ 〉 Parents?
A41783what Revela ● ion, or reason teaches such a thing?
A637841. how it can be appropriate, that is, who to be chosen to it; 2 how far it may extend; that is, with what expressions signified; 3 how conducted?
A63784And after this, what can be supposed wanting in order to salvation?
A63784But if you still aske where it was before Luther?
A63784But if you yet enquire further, whether fancy may be an ingredient in your choice?
A63784For what else should I choose?
A63784I am the Lord God that brought thee out of the Land of Egypt: and does Job serve God for nought?
A63784Nature disposes them well towards it, but in this inquiry if we aske what duty is passed upon a Brother to a Brother even for being so?
A63784Now what should the Catholicks say or do?
A63784One inquiry more there may be in this affair, and that is, whether a friend may be more then Husband or Wife?
A63784Should they damne all the Donatists, and make the rent wider?
A63784So that to your question, how far a Dear and perfect friendship is authoris''d by the principles of Christianity?
A63784That is, by what expressions it may be signified?
A63784That is, what are the duties in presence and in absence; whether the friend may not desire to enjoy his friend as well as his friendship?
A63784That salvation may be had in your Church, is it ever the truer because we say it?
A63784The first is; where was your Church before Luther?
A63784The last inquiry is, how friendships are to be conducted?
A63784The next inquiry is how far it may extend?
A63784What then?
A63784Where then was your religion before Iohn Hus and Hierom of Pragues time; against whom that Councel was convened?
A63784You first inquire how far a Dear and a perfect friendship is authoriz''d by the principles of Christianity?
A63784should they lie for God and for religion, and to serve the ends of truth say the Donatists baptism was not good?
A63784what necessity forced you from us?
A13414And say whether or no their determinations shall be de fide?
A13414But this was not likely, it was too strange a Question to aske of such a Mr. A Magistre 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 crudelitatis?
A13414But what shall we think if even this blasphemy be taught in terminis?
A13414But when Iames and Iohn saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come from Heaven and consume them even as Elias did?
A13414Doe they then deny it?
A13414Either they must think the Queen for a just cause, and by a just power excommunicate, or why did they separate from her Communion?
A13414Ergo quae poterit lingua retexere Laudes Christe tuas, qui domitum struis Infidum populum cum Duce persido?

A13414Is heresy dangerous to soules?
A13414May heresy infect others?
A13414Non 〈 ◊ 〉?
A13414Now I would fain learn why Treason is not as revealeable as Heresy?
A13414Now if the Queen by vertue of the Bull was excommunicate, why should they stop here?
A13414Quid co infelicius, cui iam esse malum necesse est?
A13414Secondly, if these were not the causes( as they would faine abuse the world into a perswasion that they were,) what was?
A13414Sedheus Arnalde à 〈 ◊ 〉 institutione 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 posse intercidere causam quae regem cogat abire regno?
A13414Shall we command fire to come from heaven and consume them?
A13414What greivance then, can this be to the state of Princes more then the former?

A13414in que nos reservasti tempora?
A13414quibus vitae periculum attulimus?
A13414— Quis talia fando Temperet?
A63673And what then?
A63673Are we not made all one with Christ, and he with us?
A63673But 4. what hinders any man from a quick consent at the first representation of these plain reasonings and authorities?
A63673But how if a Bishop be not to be had, or not ready?
A63673Can all heal?
A63673Do all interpret?
A63673Do all speak with Tongues?
A63673Do not we receive his body and his blood?
A63673Does he attend his motions?
A63673Does he live by the lawes of the spirit?
A63673Does he love his Brother?
A63673Does he obey his commands?
A63673Does he therefore think well?
A63673Does it therefore follow that the Holy Ghost is not given in Confirmation?
A63673Exigis ubi scriptum est?
A63673For is not Christ given us in the Sacrament of the Lords Supper?
A63673For who is there that enters into the World, or that enters into contention, or Athletick combats, but is anointed with oyl?
A63673Hath he no earnest desires to serve God?
A63673How shall he snatch them from the Enemy; if he does not see their mark and signature?
A63673How shall the Angel know what sheep belong unto his charge?
A63673In the dayes of the Apostles the holy spirit did produce miraculous effects, but neither alwayes, nor at all, in all men: Are all workers of Miracles?
A63673Is Jesus Christ formed in him?
A63673Meaning that no evil can invade you: and what aid shall you get?
A63673Non licebit Deo in suo Organo per manus sanctas sublimitatem modulari spiritalem?
A63673Or when we lay hands on Infants, does every one of you attend to hear them speak with Tongues?
A63673Quid enim aliud est impositio manuum nisi oratio super hominem?
A63673Quid enim aliud est impositio manuum, nisi Oratio super hominem?
A63673Quomodo curam geret tanquam ad se pertinentis Angelus?
A63673Quomodo eripiat ex hostibus si non agnoverit signaculum?
A63673SAint Chrysostome asking the reason why the Samaritans, who were Baptized by Philip, could not from him and by his ministry receive the Holy Ghost?
A63673Some inquire whether the holy Rite of Confirmation can be ministred any more than once?
A63673The Bishop''s laying his hands on the People, what is it but the solemnity of Prayer for them?
A63673This is done in Baptism and Catechism, and what was the event of it?
A63673What does it profit that thou art raised up by Baptism, if thou art not able to stand by Confirmation?
A63673Which having not obtain''d, how can he be suppos''d to have receiv''d the Holy Spirit?
A63673Whom shall he bless?
A63673YEa, but what is this to us?
A63673Your baptism was for the remission of sins there, and then ye were made free from that bondage, and what then?
A63673[ What does the mystery of Confirmation profit me after the mystery of Baptism?
A63673〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉; said Clement of Alexandria; Upon whom shall he lay his hands?
A63706* The words of Invocation in the shewing the bread of the Eucharist, and the cup of blessing, Who of all the Saints have left to us?
A637064. d Quis patiatur ut m ● ● sarum& viduarum minister supra ● os si tumidius efferat, ad quorum preces, Christi corpus sanguisque conficitur?
A63706And how shall the Church be supposed to fail, since God hath made no provisions for its restitution?
A63706And what difference is there, if cases of necessity be pretended in the defect of other ministeries, but that they also may be invaded?
A63706For by what means should the Church be renewed, and Christianity restored?
A63706For since absolutely, all the Church affixes the ordinary ministery of Baptism to the Clergy; if others do baptize, do they sin, or do they not sin?
A63706If a Lay- person shall baptize, whether or no shall the person baptized receive benefit, or will any more but the outward act be done?
A63706Quid enim majus est, si de jure quaerimus, quàm posse à summis imperiis& summis potestatibus comitia tollere?
A63706Quid magnificentius quàm posse decernere, ut migistratu se abdicent consules?
A63706Quid, quod& summum Pontificem in unis nuptiis statuit?
A63706That we may be a whole burnt- Offering, and all the substance of our Souls be consumed by fire from Heaven, and ascend up in Clouds of Incense?
A63706Who shall deliver me from this body of death?
A63706and what can make them common more than when common persons handle them, when there is no distinction of Persons in their ministration?
A63706are all Prophets?
A63706are all Teachers?
A63706concilia vel instituta dimittere, vel habita rescindere?
A63706or else why do they set their shoulder to such a work, with which no strength but extraordinary, is commensurate?
A63706quid religiosius quàm cum populo, cum plebe agendi jus aut dare aut non dare?
A63706what need they entermeddle with that, to which no extraordinary assistance is required?
A63706what revelation have they?
A63706when the anointing and miraculous healing ceased?
A63706yea, but God will preserve them from that, or will over- rule the event: yea, but how do they know that?
A63706yet grant that too, but why then will he not also over- rule the event of the matter of universal Apostasie?
A67898And first I consider that the true state of the Question is onely this, Whether it is better to pray to God with consideration or without?
A67898And if in publike prayers, is not the liberty of the spirit, sufficiently preserved in that the publicke spirit is free?
A67898And if patternes, the neerer we draw to our example, are not the imitations and representments the better?
A67898And if so, whether also it must be in publike prayer, and will it not suffice that it be in private?
A67898And now after all this strife, what harme is there in restraining the spirit in the present sense?
A67898And this is exactly the Doctrine I plainly gather from the objected words of Saint Paul,( The spirit helpeth our infirmities) How so?
A67898And what then if we took the samplers themselves, is there any imperfection in them, and can we mend them and correct Magnificat?
A67898But if it be not t ● ue, what meanes Saint Paul, by saying The spirits of the prophets must be subject to the Prophets?
A67898But lastly, how if the spirit must be restrained, and that by precept Apostolica ● l?
A67898But what then?
A67898But what?
A67898Dare any man with his gift of Prayer pretend, that he can ex ● tempore or by study make better?
A67898Does it not appoint every thing but the words?
A67898Does not the Directory that thing which is here called restraining of the spirit?
A67898Doth not the Minister confine and restraine the spirit of the Lords People, when they are tyed to his forme?
A67898For can any man be so weak as to imagine a despite is done to the spirit of grace, when those gifts to his Church are used regularly and by order?
A67898For what thinke we?
A67898For why are not the Ministers to be left as well to their liberty in making their Prayers as their Sermons?
A67898If the spirit must be at liberty, who shall assure us this liberty must be in formes of prayer?
A67898If these things be in the greene tree, what will be done in the dry?
A67898If they can pr ● y with the spirit, why also do they not preach with the spirit?
A67898Is God b ● tter served?
A67898Is it not a restraint of the Spirit to sing a Psalme in meeter by appointment?
A67898Is not this to be partiall in judgement, and inconsiderate of what wee doe?
A67898Lastly, did not the Penmen of the Scripture, write the Epistles and Gospels respectively all by the Spirit?
A67898Now I desire it may be considered sadly and seriously: Is it not as much injury to the spirit to restraine his mat ● er, as to appoint his words?
A67898Or is the Spirit departed from him, upon the sight of a pen and Ink- horne?
A67898Or will it be denyed but that they also are excellent directories and patterns for prayer?
A67898Quis enim discrevit?
A67898Shal the matter of prayers be better in all Churches?
A67898Shall God be better served?
A67898Shall the word of God and the best pat ● ernes of prayers be alwayes exactly followed?
A67898That in the case above put, how shall I or any man else say Amen to their prayers that preach and pray contradictoryes?
A67898What greater restraint then subjection?
A67898What inconvenience in the nature of the thing?
A67898What prohibition, what law, what reason or revelation is against it?
A67898Which is the more considerable of the two, sense or Language, Matter or Words?
A67898Who hath made them of a different consideration?
A67898acquired by humane meanes using divine aids?
A67898whether is the wiser man of the two, he who thinks and deliberates what to say, or he that utters his mind as fast as it comes?
A64144And do not we see and feel that at this very day the Pride of men makes it seem impossible for many persons to obey their Superiors?
A64144And how many men are there amongst us who are therefore enemies to the Religion, because it seems to be against their profit?
A64144And the Lord said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing that I do?
A64144And this is the only way which Christ hath taught us: if you ask, What is truth?
A64144And what is now to be done?
A64144Basil, a man almost equall to the Apostles?
A64144But I, like David, will cry out, Where are thy loving- kindnesses which have been ever of old?
A64144But how shall we obtain this teacher, and how shall we be taught?
A64144But the wonder is the lesse; for we know when God said to Jonas, doest thou well to be angry?
A64144But what are you the better if any man should pretend to teach you whether every Angel makes a species?
A64144But where is there a man, or a Society of men, that can be at rest in his enquiry, and is sure he understands all the truths of God?
A64144Do not we see this by a daily experience?
A64144How can a wicked man understand the purities of the heart?
A64144If God teaches us, then all is well: but if we do not learn wisdom at his feet, from whence should we have it?
A64144Is it to be supposed that a Godly man is better enabled to determine the Questions of Purgatory or Transubstantiation?
A64144Now among all the pretensions of Reformation, who can tell better what is, and what is not, true Reformation, then he that is truly Reform''d himself?
A64144That''s well: but shall all Christians have the spirit?
A64144The Spirit of God is our teacher: he will abide with us for ever to be our teacher: he will teach us all things; but how?
A64144This device produced the conferences at Poissy, at Montpellier, at Ratisbon, at the Hague, at many places more: and what was the event of these?
A64144What Learning is it to discourse of the Philosophy of the Sacrament, if you do not feel the virtue of it?
A64144What makes these evil, these dangerous and desperate Doctrines?
A64144What remedy after all this?
A64144Where is that Evodias, the sweet favour of the Church, the successor and imitator of the holy Apostles?
A64144Where is the blessed Quire of Bishops and Doctors, who shined like lights in the World, and contained the Word of Life?
A64144Where is the fault?
A64144Why not from Abraham?
A64144Why?
A64144and is a temperate man alwayes a better Scholar then a Drunkard?
A64144and what is the individuation of the Soul in the state of separation?
A64144for Religion?
A64144is the gift of Chastity the best way to reconcile Thomas and Scotus?
A64144no: for the body of Religion?
A64144not so much: for the garment of the body of Religion?
A64144what are you the wiser if you should study and find out what place Adam should for ever have lived in if he had not fallen?
A64144what''s the matter?
A64144where is Athanasius, rich in vertue?
A64144where is Gregory Nyssen, that great Divine?
A64144where is Hippolytus, that good man, 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, that gentle sweet person?
A64144where is Ignatius, in whom God dwelt?
A64144where is St. Dionysius the Areopagite, that Bird of Paradise, that celestial Eagle?
A64144where is there a man but the more he studies and enquires, still he discovers nothing so clearly as his own Ignorance?
A64062And after this, what can be supposed wanting in order to salvation?
A64062And what can be added to all this, but this thing alone to prove the Divinity of Jesus?
A64062But for whom and under whose conduct was all this to be believed, and all this to be done, and all this to be suffered?
A64062But if you still ask where it was before Luther?
A64062But if you yet enquire further, whether fancy may be an ingredient in your choice?
A64062Could a few Fishermen and a Publican effect all this for the son of a poor Maiden of Judaea?
A64062For what else should I choose; For being a fool, and useless; for a pretty face or a smooth chin?
A64062How it can be appropriate, that is, who to be chosen to it; 2. how far it may extend; that is, with what expressions signified; 3. how conducted?
A64062I am the Lord God that brought thee out of the land of Egypt: and does Job serve God for nought?
A64062Nature disposes them well towards it, but in this inquiry if we ask what duty is passed upon a Brother to a Brother even for being so?
A64062Now let it be considered, how could matters of fact be proved better?
A64062Now what should the Catholicks say or do?
A64062One is, you desire me to recite what else might impede your compliance with the Roman Church?
A64062Quis largitur opes veteri fidoque sodali?
A64062Should they damn all the Donatists, and make the rent wider?
A64062Should they lie for God and for Religion, and to serve the ends of Truth say the Donatists Baptism was not good?
A64062So that to your question, how far a Dear and perfect friendship is authoriz''d by the principles of Christianity?
A64062That is, by what expressions it may be signified?
A64062That is, what are the duties in presence and in absence; whether the friend may not desire to enjoy his friend as well as his friendship?
A64062That salvation may be had in your Church, is it ever the truer because we say it?
A64062The first is; where was your Church before Luther?
A64062The last inquiry is, how friendships are to be conducted?
A64062The next inquiry is how far it may extend?
A64062To the other Questions; Whether an Ecclesiastical Tradition be of equal authority with Divine?
A64062What then?
A64062Where then was your Religion before John Hus and Hierom of Prague''s time, against whom that Council was convened?
A64062Whether the Apostles of our Blessed Lord did not Orally deliver many things necessary to Salvation which were not committed to writing?
A64062You first inquire how far a Dear and a perfect friendship is authoriz''d by the principles of Christianity?
A64062and Hangmen converted by the blood of Martyrs springing upon their faces which their impious hands& cords have strain''d through their flesh?
A64062and how could this be any thing, but such as to rely upon matters of fact?
A64062and wise Men preach this doctrine for no other visible reward, but shame and death, poverty and banishment?
A64062can we suppose all the World, or so great a part of Mankind can consent by chance, or suffer such changes for nothing?
A64062or for any thing less than this?
A64062what greater certainty can we have of any thing that was ever done which we saw not, or heard not, but by the report of wise and honest persons?
A64062what necessity forced you from us?
A64062who shall make him recompence, or what can tempt him to do it knowingly?
A63754* And if in other cases lawes be never given to Ideots and Infants and persons uncapable, why should they be given here?
A637545. ubi te invenit?
A63754And is it unjust to condemn one man to hell for all the sin of a thousand of his Ancestors actually done by them?
A63754And then where is his providence and Government?
A63754And therefore when we are charged with sin, it is worthy of inquiry, whence it is that we are sinners?
A63754But first, where is there such a distinction set down in Scripture, or in the prime antiquity, or in any moral Philosopher?
A63754But if Originall sinne be not a sinne properly, why are children baptized?
A63754But if it be asked, what if this grace had not come?
A63754But why should this be abstracted from all the whole Oeconomy of God, from all his other dispensations?
A63754By baptisme, before, or after?
A63754Concupiscentia carnis peccatum est, quia inest illi inobedientia contra dominatum mentis, Quid potest, aut potuit nasci ex servo, nisi servus?
A63754For if Concupiscence be a sin, and yet remains after baptism, then what good does Baptism effect?
A63754For though I can say, If this thing be done in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry?
A63754For where will they reckon the beginning of Predestination?
A63754How can men be distinguish''d from Beasts: or the Vertuous from the vitious?
A63754If God decrees us to be born sinners; Then he makes us to be sinners: and then where is his goodnesse?
A63754If God does cast Infants into Hell for the sinne of others, and yet did not condemne Devills, but for their owne sinne; where is his love to mankind?
A63754If God does damne any for that, he damnes us for what we could not help, and for what himself did, and then where is his Justice?
A63754If God for the sinne of Adam brings upon us a necessity of sinning; where is our liberty?
A63754If God hath given us a Nature by derivation, which is wholly corrupted, then how can it be that all which God made is good?
A63754If God sentence us to that Damnation, which he can not in justice inflict, where is his Wisdome?
A63754If in Baptisme he is quitted, then he that dies before baptisme, is still under the sentence, and what shall become of him?
A63754If it be answered, that God will pardon him, some way or other, at some time or other; I reply, yea, but who said so?
A63754If it does not deserve damnation, why do they say it does?
A63754If no man shall ever be damned for the sin of Adam alone, then I demand whether are they born quitt from the guilt; or when they are quitted?
A63754If they be not born free, when are they quitted?
A63754Illa Concupiscentialis inobedientia quanto magis absque culpa est in corpore non consentientis, si absque culpa est in corpore dormientis?
A63754Is it against Gods goodnese that Infants should be damned for Original sin?
A63754Is it by a natural consequent that we are guilty of Adams sin, or is it by the decree of God?
A63754Is it by the necessity of nature, or by the liberty of our Will?
A63754Is it in all cases of the world unjust for God, to impute our fathers fins to us unto eternal condemnation; and is it otherwise in this only?
A63754Is it not therefore evident, that he absolutely decreed Damnation to these Persons?
A63754Is it the same thing that was in the person?
A63754Now then I demand, whether Concupiscence before actual consent be a sin or no?
A63754This Objection can presse nothing at all; for why was Christ baptized, who knew no sinne?
A63754This guilt that is in nature, what is it?
A63754Which of us can say, That the liberty of our Will did perish by the sin of the first Man?
A63754and if it be a sin, whether it deserves damnation?
A63754and shall it be accounted just to damn all the world for one sin of one man?
A63754and that it be said, that without Gods grace they must have gone to Hell, because without it they could not go to Heaven?
A63754and what benefit comes to them by baptisme?
A63754could you desire to be thought good, and yet have delighted in such cruelty?
A63754could you have been delighted in their horrid shrieks and out- cries, and taking pleasure in their unavoidable and their intollerable calamity?
A63754expresly against S. Hierom, Quo ● odo justificati sumus& sanctificati, si peccatum aliquid in nobis relinquitur?
A63754or how can it be supposed he should strive against all vice, when he can excuse so much upon his Nature?
A63754or indeed how shall he strive at all?
A63754sinning with his owne choice; how can that be credible, he should love to kill Innocents, and yet should love to spare the Criminall?
A63754that is, is it an obligation to punishment?
A63754what is become of all Lawes, and of all Vertue and vice?
A63754where is our Nature?
A63754where then is his Mercie, and where is his Truth?
A63754will they reckon it in Adam after the fall, or in Christ immediately promised?
A63754yet I must not say therefore, If this be done in the dry tree, what shall be done in the green?
A63823And Intercession; Is it not plain that we make them equal with Christ, in kind, though not in degree?
A63823And if it be but a private opinion, yet, is it safe to follow it, or is it not safe?
A63823And if our physick be poison''d, if our staff be broken, if our hopes make us asham''d, how shall we appear before Christ at his coming?
A63823And what profit can he receive, who hears a sound, and discerns it not?
A63823And what then?
A63823And why can they not be suffered to enjoy their share of peace, which hath returned in the hands of His Sacred Majesty at his blessed Restauration?
A63823But all this is onely in the case of Heretical Princes: But what for others?
A63823But because all sin is a blot to a mans soul, and a foul stain to his reputation; we demaud, in what does this stain consist?
A63823But besides, you will say, That this is but the private opinion of some Doctors; and what then?
A63823But how easie were it for you now to conclude, that all this is but a meer cozenage, an art to get money?
A63823But if it be not safe to follow it, and that this does not make an opinion probable, or the practise safe; Who says so?
A63823Does the Church?
A63823For what cause, and at what time he entered?
A63823His words are these,[ If it be inquir''d what kind of conversion it is, whether it be formal or substantial, or of another kind?
A63823How many of them there are?
A63823If the question be, Whether it be lawful to worship the Image of the Cross, or of Christ, with Divine worship?
A63823In the guilt, or in the punishment?
A63823In these cases we are to consider, who teaches them?
A63823It is well; but were you well advis''d?
A63823Iudaicum enim est: If any one asks, Whether it be fit to adjure Devils?
A63823Next to this, the Exorcist may ask the Devil some questions; What is his name?
A63823No; Does Dr. Cajus?
A63823Now if it be inquired, by what Authority the Pope does these things?
A63823Quid prodest locutionum integritas quam non sequitur intellectus audientis?
A63823So that now the question is not, whether this doctrine and practise be an INNOVATION, but whether it be not better it should be so?
A63823To them that ask, what should any one need to get so many hundred thousand years of pardon, as are ready to be had upon very easie terms?
A63823We conclude this with those words of S. Paul, How shall we call on him on whom we have not believed?
A63823Wh ● should they use them thus?
A63823Whether a Church mouse does eat her Maker?
A63823Whether a late custom be not to be preferr''d before the ancient?
A63823Whether a man by eating the consecrated symbols does break his fast?
A63823Whether his power be greater than the power of Angels and Archangels?
A63823Whether it be not as good to have a dumb Priest to do Mass, as one that hath a tongue to say it?
A63823Whether it be not better to drink new wine than old?
A63823Whether it be not better to obey man than Christ, who is God blessed for ever?
A63823Whether it may be said, the Priest is in some sense the Creator of God himself?
A63823Why against the Papists, against whom so very many are already exasperated, that they cry out fiercely of Persecution?
A63823Why this over again?
A63823a custom dissonant from the institution of Christ, before that which is wholly consonant to what Christ did and taught?
A63823and by what Saint adjur''d?
A63823and who in Hell?
A63823and, for his own learning, by what persons he can be cast out?
A63823by what words he can be most afflicted?
A63823is there not a cause?
A63823novum sibi usurpare nomen praesumit?
A63823or Dr. Sempronius say so?
A63823who are his particular enemies in Heaven?
A641313ly, But what if our Princes or our Prelates command things against the Word of God?
A64131And after all this, in the conduct of Government what remedy can there be to those that call themselves Tender Consciences?
A64131And if it be said that Laws may be mistaken; it is true, but may not an Oath also be a Perjury?
A64131And which of us all stands here this day, that does not need God''s pardon and the King''s?
A64131Are all the practices of Geneva or Scotland recorded in the Word of God?
A64131But first, who ever did so that could help it?
A64131But is there not great difference in the Thing commanded?
A64131But what course must be taken with tender Consciences?
A64131But what then again?
A64131But will we doe nothing else?
A64131Can the Prince give Laws to the peoples will; and can the people give measures to the Princes understanding?
A64131Can we become a law unto our selves, and can not the word and power of our Superiors also become a law unto us?
A64131For did not our Blessed Saviour say, that an Oath is the end of all questions, and after depositions are taken, all Judges goe to sentence?
A64131I have tried all the waies I can to bring thee home, and what shall I now doe unto thee?
A64131If one mans Conscience can be the measure of another mans action, why shall not the Princes Conscience be the Subject''s measure?
A64131If you do not think so, why do you not leave it?
A64131Is not the Government a part of?
A64131It is very hard when the Prince is forc''d to say to his rebellious Subject, as God did to his stubborn people, Quid faciam tibi?
A64131Or is the Conscience of the Superior bound to relaxe his lawes, if the inferior tells him so?
A64131Shall the execution of the Law be suspended as to all such persons?
A64131The Subject should rather say, Quid me vis facere?
A64131The next enquiry is, What must the disagreeing Subject doe when he supposes the Superiors command is against the Law of God?
A64131Well, it may be so: but were it not better that you did doubt?
A64131Well, to what purpose is all this?
A64131What excellency was there in the journeys of the Patriarchs from Mesopotamia to Syria, from the land of Canaan into Egypt?
A64131What made Abraham the friend of God?
A64131What shall we doe now?
A64131What wilt thou have me to doe?
A64131Who believe more strongly then boyes and women?
A64131Will a son contend with his father?
A64131and can any man boast of his passive Obedience that calls it Persecution?
A64131and what made his offer to kill his Son to be so pleasing to God?
A64131and what thanks could the sons of Israel deserve that they sate still upon the seventh day of the week?
A64131and who is so carefully to be observed, lest he be offended, as the KING?
A64131and who so readily suspect their teachers as they who are govern''d by chance, and know not the intrinsick measures of good and evil?
A64131are the trifling Ceremonies of their publick Penance recorded in the four Gospels?
A64131but if you do think so, why are ye not zealous for it?
A64131hath God given more to a private then to a publick hand?
A64131is not such a Law, a Law without an obligation?
A64131may not every man chuse whether he will obey or no?
A64131what then?
A64131wherefore then( God said) were ye not afraid to speak against my servant Moses?
A64131who are so hard to be perswaded as fools?
A64131who can find fault with your Religion?

A2780511 Shall thy loving kindnesse be shewed in the grave: or thy faithfulnesse in destruction?
A2780511 Tush( say they) how should God perceive it: is there knowledge in the most Highest?
A2780511 What reward shall I give unto the Lord: for all the benefits that he hath done unto me?
A2780512 For the sin of their mouth, and for the words of their lips, they shall be taken in their pride: and why?
A2780512 Shall thy wondrous works be known in the dark: and thy righteousnesse in the land where all things are forgotten?
A2780512 Who can tell how oft he offendeth?
A2780512 Why hast thou then broken down her hedge: that all they that goe by, pluck off her grapes?
A2780512 Why withdrawest thou thy hand: why pluckest not thou thy right hand out of thy bosome to consume the ● nemy?
A2780513 Namely, while they say dayly unto me: Where is now thy God?
A2780513 Thinkest thou that I will eat buls flesh: and drink the bloud of goats?
A2780513 Thy way, O God, is holy: who is so great a God( as our God?)
A2780514 And why?
A2780514 Lord, why abhorrest thou my soul: and hidest thou thy face from me?
A2780514 Wherefore should the wicked blaspheme God: while he doth say in his heart, Tush, thou God carest not for it?
A2780514 Why art thou so vexed, O my soul: and why art thou so disquieted within me?
A2780516 But unto the ungodly said God: Why dost thou preach my Laws, and takest my Covenant in thy mouth?
A2780516 Who will rise up with me against the wicked: or who will take my part against the evill doers?
A2780516 Why hop ye so ye high hils?
A2780517 He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who is able to abide his frost?
A2780517 Thy righteousnesse, O God, is very high: and great things are they that thou hast done, O God, who is like unto thee?
A278052 For thou art the God of my strength, why hast thou put me from thee: and why goe I so heavily while the enemy oppresseth me?
A278052 How long shall I seek counsell in my soul, and be so vexed in my heart: how long shall mine enemies triumph over me?
A278052 How long will ye give wrong judgement: and accept the persons of the ungodly?
A278052 Mine eyes long sore for thy word: saying, O when wilt thou comfort me?
A278052 My soul is a thirst for God, yea, even for the living God: when shall I come to appear before the presence of God?
A278052 O ye sonnes of men, how long will ye blaspheme mine honour: and have such pleasure in vanity, and seek after leasing?
A278052 Wherefore shall the heathen say: Where is now their God?
A278052 Who can expresse the noble acts of the Lord: or shew forth all his praise?
A2780520 And why?
A2780520 They spake against God, also, saying: Shall God prepare a table in the wildernesse?
A2780520 Wilt thou have any thing to doe with the stoole of wickednesse: which imagineth mischief as a law?
A2780521 Do not I hate them, O Lord, that hate thee: and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?
A2780521 If we have forgotten the name of our God, and holden up our hands to any strange God: shall not God search it out?
A2780524 Wherefore hidest thou thy face: and forgettest our misery and trouble?
A278053 And why?
A278053 For the foundations will bee cast down: and what hath the righteous done?
A278053 If thou Lord wilt be extream to mark what is done amisse: O Lord, who may abide it?
A278053 Lord, how long shall the ungodly: how long shall the ungodly triumph?
A278053 Lord, what is man that thou hast such respect unto him: or the son of man that thou so regardest him?
A278053 My soul is also sore troubled: but Lord how long wilt thou punish me?
A278053 My tears have been my meat day and night: while they daily say unto me, Where is now thy God?
A278053 Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord: or who shall rise up in his holy place?
A2780531 For who is God but the Lord: or who hath any strength except our God?
A278054 For why?
A278054 How long shall all wicked doers speak so disdainfully: and make such proud boasting?
A278054 How many are the dayes of thy servant: when wilt thou be avenged of them that persecute me?
A278054 How shall wee sing the Lords song: in a strange land?
A278054 O Lord God of hosts: how long wilt thou be angry with thy people that prayeth?
A278054 What is man that thou art mindfull of him: and the son of man that thou visitest him?
A278054 Which have said, With our tongue we will prevail: we are they that ought to speak, who is Lord over us?
A2780541 For why?
A2780545 Lord, how long wilt thou hide thy self, for ever: and shall thy wrath burn like fire?
A2780546 Oh remember how short my time is: wherefore hast thou made all men for nought?
A2780547 What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death: and shall he deliver his soul from the hand of hell?
A2780548 Lord, where are thy old loving kindnesses: which thou swarest unto David in thy truth?
A278055 Are not they without understanding that work wickednesse: eating up my people as if they would eat bread?
A278055 For in death no man remembreth thee: and who will give thee thanks in the pit?
A278055 Lord, how long wilt thou be angry: shall thy jealousie burn like fire for ever?
A278055 Mine enemies speak evill of me: when shall he dye, and his name perish?
A278055 What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest: and thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back?
A278055 Wherefore should I fear in the days of wickednesse: and when the wickednesse of my heels compasse me round about?
A278055 Who is like unto the Lord our God, that hath his dwelling so high: and yet humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven and earth?
A278055 Why art thou so heavy, O my soul: and why art thou so disquieted within me?
A278055 Wilt thou be displeased at us for ever: and wilt thou stretch out thy wrath from one generation to another?
A278056 For who is he among the clouds: that shall be compared unto the Lord?
A278056 There be many that say: Who will shew us any good?
A278056 Whither shall I go then from thy Spirit: or whither shall I go then from thy presence?
A278056 Why art thou so full of heavinesse( O my soul:) and why art thou so disquieted within me?
A278056 Wilt thou not turn again and quicken us: that thy people may rejoyce in thee?
A278056 Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams: and yee little hils like young sheep?
A278057 And what is he among the gods: that shall be like unto the Lord?
A278057 And why?
A278057 And why?
A278057 Behold, they speak with their mouth, and swords are in their lips: for who doth hear?
A278057 Have I not remembred thee in my bed: and thought upon thee when I was waking?
A278057 Thou, even thou art to be feared: and who may stand in thy sight when thou art angry?
A278057 Thy testimonies have I claimed as mine heritage for ever: and why?
A278057 Will the Lord absent himself for ever: and will hee be no more intreated?
A278058 And why?
A278058 Any why?
A278058 Have they no knowledge, that they are all such workers of mischief: eating up my people as it were bread?
A278058 Is his mercy clean gone for ever: and is his promise come utterly to an end for evermore?
A278058 Take heed ye unwise among the people: O ye fools, when will ye understan ●?
A278058 Thou tell ● st my flittings, put my tears into thy bottle: are not these things noted in thy book?
A278059 Hath God forgotten to be gracious: and will he shut up his loving kindnesse in displeasure?
A278059 He that planted the eare, shall he not heare: or hee that made the eye, shall he not see?
A278059 What profit is there in my bloud: when I go down to the pit?
A278059 Who will lead me into the strong city: who will bring me into Edom?
A27805ARE your minds set upon righteousnesse, O ye congregation: and doe ye judge the thing that is right, O ye sons of men?
A27805But concerning him I must say, as S. Paul said of the unbeleevers, What have I to doe with them that are without?
A27805HOw long wilt thou forget me( O Lord) for ever: how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?
A27805Have pity on me now in the time of mercy, and condemne me not when thou commest to judgement, for what profit is there in my bloud?
A27805How long, O Lord, how long shall we seek for rest and finde none?
A27805How shall we stand upright in the eternall scrutiny?
A27805IN the Lord put I my trust: how say ye then to my soul, that she should flee as a bird unto the hill?
A27805LOrd, who shall dwell in thy tabernacle: or who shall rest upon thy holy hill?
A27805Lord, I tremble when I remember that sad truth, If the righteous scarcely be saved, where then shall the wicked and the ungodly appear?
A27805Lord, what is man that thou art mindfull of him: and the son of man that thou so regardest him?
A27805MY God, my God,( look upon me) why hast thou forsaken me: and art so farre from my health, and from the words of my complaint?
A27805O God wherefore art thou absent from us so long: why is thy wrath so hot against the sheep of thy pasture?
A27805O just and dear God, where shall I appear?
A27805Psalme ad verbum, saith the Tradition of the Church, and that he began it, saith the Scripture, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
A27805THe Lord is my light and my salvation, whom then shall I fear?
A27805Thy way, O God, is holy: who is so great a God as our God?
A27805WHy boastest thou thy self, thou ● yrant: that thou canst doe mischief?
A27805WHy doe the heathen so furiously rage together: and why do the people imagine a vain thing?
A27805WHy standest thou so farre off( O Lord:) and hidest thy face in the needfull time of trouble?
A27805Where shall we appear in the day of Judgement?
A27805the Lord is the strength of my life, of whom then shall I be afraid?
A27805who shall plead for me that am so loaden with impurities, with vanity, with ingratitude, with malice, and the terrors of an affrighting conscience?
A64139( saith Job) will God hear his cry when trouble cometh upon him?
A64139And how then shall such a person hope that God should pity him?
A64139And if it be inquired, why men should sin again, after they had experience of the little and great deception?
A64139And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
A64139And is not evill come upon all the world for one sin of Adam?
A64139And is not hee as sensible of it and more then wee?
A64139And therefore if a common man must not serve at the altar, how shall he abide a wicked man to stand there?
A64139And this was intimated by S. James, Doe not rich men oppresse you, and draw you before the Judgment seat?
A64139And who shall pay for this losse?
A64139And yet if men do not go upon these grounds, upon what account do they sin?
A64139Are not most men of the world made miserable at a lesse price then a thousand pound a year?
A64139Are we not often too imperious against our servants?
A64139But doe not many of us inquire after a vow?
A64139But how if the portion be bad?
A64139But let us goe one step further: How many of us love our enemies?
A64139But then what would become of us, if God should be as angry at our sin as at Zedekiahs, or King Davids?
A64139Can an indifferent prayer quench the flames of hell, or rescue us from an eternall sorrow?
A64139Can we expect that our sinnes should be washed by a lazie prayer?
A64139Despisest thou the riches of his goodnesse, and forbearance and long- suffering, not knowing that the goodnesse of God leadeth thee to repentance?
A64139Did not God punish Zedekiah with suffering his eyes to be put out in the house of bondage?
A64139Did not God strike Corah and his company with fire from Heaven?
A64139Did the merchant see the pearls and the wealth he designs to get in the trade of 20 years?
A64139Did we never call good evill, or evill good?
A64139Did we never say to others, thy cause is right, when nothing made it right, but favour and money, a false advocate or a covetous Judge?
A64139Didst thou pray with the same affection and labour as thou didst purchase thy estate?
A64139Do not all the world fight for liberty, and at no terms will lay down armes till at least they be cousened with the image and colour of it?
A64139Do not many men go from sin to sin even in their repentance?
A64139Do we not entertain and seed our own anger with vile and basest language?
A64139Doe not many men talke themselves into anger, skrewing up themselves with dialogues and fancy, till they forget the company and themselves?
A64139Doe not the laws of all wise Nations marke the drunkard for a foole, with the meanest and most scornfull punishment?
A64139Doe we not live upon Gods provision, and yet stand or work at the command of lust, or avarice, humane regards and little interests of the world?
A64139Doe wee not professe our selves his servants, and yet serve the Devill?
A64139Does not the Devill often tempt men to despair, and by that torment put bars and locks upon them, that they may never return to God?
A64139For besides that himself would never admonish his friend when he sins,( and if he would, why should not himself be glad of the same chairty?)
A64139For consider; can it be imagined that any one of us should escape better then David did?
A64139For if they doe not believe these things, where is their Faith?
A64139For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
A64139For what is the hope of the hypocrite?
A64139For what necessity can a man have to curse him whom he cals enemy?
A64139For who can resist him who is Almighty?
A64139For who pityeth the tears of a base man who hath treacherously murthered his friend?
A64139For why is Fasting prescribed together with prayer?
A64139Have not many persons been struck suddenly in the very act of sin, and some been seised upon by the Devill and carryed away alive?
A64139Have thy alms been more then thy oppressions, and according to thy power?
A64139Heaven and earth shall see all the follies and basenesse of thy life; and doest thou laugh?
A64139How earnestly have we fasted, if our Prince be sick or afflicted?
A64139How few of us are troubled when he sees his brother wicked, or dishonorably vicious?
A64139How many days have we set apart for the publick relief and interests of the Kingdome?
A64139How much of our time was spent in that?
A64139How shalt thou look upon him that fainted and dyed for love of thee, and thou didst scorn his miraculous mercies?
A64139If now at last it be inquir''d whether every man is bound to reprove every man, if he sins, and if he converse with him?
A64139If of every idle word we must give account, what shall we doe for those malicious words that dishonor God, or doe despite to our Brother?
A64139Is it not a fearfull consideration that a man should rather choose eternally to perish, then to say his prayers heartily, and affectionately?
A64139Is lust so soon overcome, that the very naming it can master it?
A64139Is not this laid up in store with me, and sealed up among my treasures?
A64139Is not unthankfulnesse to God a greater basenesse and unworthinesse then unthanfulnesse to our Patron?
A64139Is the Devill so slight and easie an enemy, that he will fly away from us at the first word, spoken without power, and without vehemence?
A64139Most men choose the sin, if it be once disputable whether it be a sin or no?
A64139Neither do I say that all the souls do dye, for that indeed would be to the wicked a gain unlooked for: What then?
A64139Of the first St. Paul gives no account, but by way of upbraiding asks, what they had?
A64139Our tongues are our owne, we are they that ought to speak, who is Lord over us?
A64139Quanto satius est mentem potius eluere quae malis cupiditatibus sordidatur,& uno virtutis as sidei lavacro universa vitia depellere?
A64139Quid faciet agnus, cum tremit aries?
A64139Quid faciet virgula deserti, ubi concutietur cedrus Paradisi?
A64139Quid non audebis perfida lingua loqui?
A64139Remember how often we have tempted our Brother, or a silly woman to sin and death?
A64139Si coelum fugiat, ubi manebit terra?
A64139Silver and gold have I none, and therefore I can give you none: But I wish you well; How will that appear?
A64139Sin thrust me from heaven to hell, and do you think on earth to have security?
A64139The effect of this consideration is this: That if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the wicked and the sinner appear?
A64139The grace of God secur''d the young Gentleman, and the Spirit rode in triumph; but what can flesh do in such a day of danger?
A64139The heat is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked; who can know it?
A64139Therefore wee shall consider what are those conditions which are required in every person that prays, the want of which makes the prayer to be a sin?
A64139Vis quantum mali facias videre?
A64139Was not Solomon glorious in all things but when he bowed to Pharaoh''s daughter, and then to Devils?
A64139Were they not made unwillingly, weakly, and wandringly, and abated with sins in the greatest part of thy life?
A64139Were thy prayers made in feare and holinesse, with passion and desire?
A64139What almes have we given for our brothers conversion?
A64139What are its consequents by its demerit, and the infliction of the superadded wrath of God, which it hath deserved?
A64139What are the conditions of a good mans prayer, the absence of which makes that even his prayer returns empty?
A64139What arguments, what hardnesse, what preaching, what necessity can perswade men to confesse their sins?
A64139What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed?
A64139What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed?
A64139What fruit had ye then?
A64139What fruits and relishes it leaves behinde by its naturall efficiency?
A64139What greater madnesse is there then to spend the price of a whole farm in contention for three sheaves of corn?
A64139What is the summe totall of the pleasure of sin?
A64139What man is there in the world that thinks himself covetous or proud?
A64139What shall I doe when the Lord shall come to judgement?
A64139What will become of us?
A64139When the Boeotians asked the Oracle, by what they should become happy?
A64139Who can evade his scrutiny that knows all things?
A64139Who can hope for pity of him that is inflexible?
A64139Who can think to be exempted when the Judge is righteous and impartial?
A64139Who in the world is a verier fool, a more ignorant wretched person then he that is an Atheist?
A64139Who is sad and melancholy when his neighbour is almost in hell?
A64139Ye can not endure sicknesse, ye are troubled at the evils of the world, and yet you are loth to dye and to be quit of them, what shall I do to you?
A64139and by what means didst thou judge concerning it?
A64139and how much of our estate was spent in this?
A64139and is there any thing in the world so foolish as a man that is drunk?
A64139and the earth open''d and swallowed up the congregation of Abiram?
A64139and yet do they not the very next day go to it again?
A64139are we stronger then he?
A64139can it be that either any thing should be more prevalent, or that God can possibly deny such addresses, and such importunities?
A64139doe wee proveke God to anger?
A64139how doe they differ from beasts, save that they are more foolish?
A64139or if this be great, how importunate and passionate have we been with God by prayer in his behalf, by prayer and secret petition?
A64139or lose our interest rather then lose our charity?
A64139or overcome evill with good, or turn the face again to them that strike us, rather then be reveng''d?
A64139or pray for, and doe good to them that persecute and affront us?
A64139or suffer our selves to be spoil''d or robbed without contention and uncharitable courses?
A64139or to sue him, or kill him, or do him any spite?
A64139or what security or probability have we that he will not so punish us?
A64139or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
A64139or who will lend a friendly sigh when he sees a traitor to his country passe forth through the execrable gates of cities?
A64139shew it; what''s become of it?
A64139that corrupt Justice and pervert Judgment?
A64139that dishonour the Religion, and disgrace the Ministers?
A64139that is, nothing that they dare own, nothing that remains: and where is it?
A64139that preach evill doctrines, or declare perverse sentences?
A64139was not God so angry with Valentinian, that he gave him into his enemies hand to be flay''d alive?
A64139what vultur, what death, what affliction shall destroy this sinner?
A64139when he sees him grow old in iniquity?
A64139where have we in our body room enough for so many stripes, as our sin ought justly to be punished withall?
A64139where must we suffer this vengeance?
A64139where shall he lay his burden?
A64139where shall he take sanctuary?
A64139why do we vainly hope it shall not be so with us?
A64139— Quis deditus autem Usque adeò est, ut non illam quam laudibus essert, Horreat, inque diem septenis oderit horts?
A64139— Quis non Epicurum Suspicit, exigui laetum plantaribus horti?
A63711& thy righteousnesse in the land of forgetfulnes?
A63711* Art not thou he which hath dried the sea, the waters of the great deepe, that hath made the depths of the sea a way for the ransomed to passe over?
A63711* But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee and commest thou to me?
A63711* For in death no man remembreth thee: and who will give thee thankes in the pit?
A63711* For thou art the God that doest wonders; thy way O God is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God?
A63711* Look at the generations of old and see, did ever any trust in the Lord and was confounded?
A63711* My soule thirsteth for God, for the living God; when shall I come and appeare in the presence of God?
A63711* O Lord God of hosts how long wilt thou be angry with thy people that prayeth?
A63711* Thy way O God is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God?
A63711* Up Lord, why sleepest thou?
A63711* What is man that thou art mindfull of him, and the Son of man that thou visitest him?
A63711* What profit is there in my bloud, when I goe down into the pit?
A63711* What shall I render unto the Lord for all the benefits which he hath done unto me?
A63711* Wherefore should the wicked blaspheme God, while he doth say in his heart, Tush thou God carest not for it?
A63711* Whither then shall I goe from thy Spirit?
A63711* Who is like unto the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high?
A63711* Who is like unto thee O Lord amongst the Gods?
A63711* Why withdrawest thou thy hand, even thy right hand?
A63711* Wil t thou be displeased at us for ever?
A63711* Will the Lord absent himselfe for ever?
A6371110 As with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproch me: while they say daily unto me, Where is thy God?
A6371110 He that chastiseth the heathen, shall not he correct?
A6371110 O God, how long shall the adversary reproch?
A6371110 Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is their God?
A6371110 Who is this king of glory?
A6371110 Who will bring me into the strong city?
A6371110 Wilt not thou, O God, which hadst cast us off?
A6371110 Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead?
A6371111 And they say, How doth God know?
A6371111 Shall thy loving kindnesse be declared in the grave?
A6371111 Who knoweth the power of thine anger?
A6371111 Why art thou cast down, O my soul?
A6371111 Why withdrawest thou thy hand, even thy right hand?
A6371111 Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off?
A6371112 Shall thy wonders be known in the dark?
A6371112 So teach us to number our dayes, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdome, 13 Return( O Lord) how long?
A6371112 What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many dayes, that he may see good?
A6371112 What man is he that feareth the Lord?
A6371112 What shall I render unto the Lord, for all his benefits towards me?
A6371112 Who can understand his errors?
A6371112 Why hast thou then broken down her hedges, so that all they which passe by the way doe pluck her?
A6371113 But unto thee have I cried, O Lord, and in the morning shall my prayer prevent thee 14 Lord, why castest thou off my soul?
A6371113 For thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not thou deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living?
A6371113 Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God?
A6371113 Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God?
A6371116 But unto the wicked God saith, What hast thou to doe to declare my statutes, or that thou shouldst take my covenant in thy mouth?
A6371116 Who will rise up for me against the evil doers?
A6371116 Why leap ye, ye high hils?
A6371117 He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold?
A6371117 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God?
A6371117 Lord, how long wilt thou look on?
A6371119 How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment?
A6371119 Thy righteousnesse also, O God, is very high, who hast done great things: O God, who is like unto thee?
A6371119 Yea, they spake against God: they said, Can God furnish a table in the wildernesse?
A637112 For thou art the God of my strength, why dost thou cast me off?
A637112 How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily?

A63878or whether it be permitted to us to live with Lust or Covetousness acted with all the daughters of rapine and ambition?
A63878what are you the wiser if you should study and find out what place Adam should for ever have lived in if he had not fallen?
A63878what is there less in sleep?
A63878what then?
A63878what''s the matter?
A63878where is Athanasius, rich in vertue?
A63878where is Gregory Nyssen, that great Divine?
A63878where is Hippolytus, that good man, 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, that gentle sweet person?
A63878where is Ignatius, in whom God dwelt?
A63878where is St. Dionysius the Areopagite, that Bird of Paradise, that celestial Eagle?
A63878where is there a man but the more he studies and enquires, still he discovers nothing so clearly as his own Ignorance?
A63878wherefore then( God said) were ye not afraid to speak against my servant Moses?
A63878whether we are to live good lives or no?
A63878who are so hard to be perswaded as fools?
A63878who can find fault with your Religion?
A64057& c. What is the Bishop, but he that hath all authority and rule?
A64057* And indeed what is the saying of our blessed Saviour himselfe?
A64057* And now after all this, what authority is equall to this LEGISLATIVE of the Bishops?
A64057* BUt is it not also heresie?
A64057* But does not this intimate it was only by positive constitution, and neither by Divine nor Apostolicall ordinance?
A64057* But suppose it were, what will they say, that are perpetuall Dictators?
A64057* But which was first of a private congregation, or a Diocesse?
A64057* So that whence will men take their estimate for the rites of ordinations?
A640573 ly, He was never condemn''d by any Councell, and how then can he be called heretick?
A64057All these I say, clearely make not distinct orders, and why are not all of them of the same consideration?
A64057An non licebatipsi[ Petro] eligere?
A64057And againe, Quid enim aliud est Episcopus quàm is qui omni Principatu,& potestate superior est?
A64057And how was that?
A64057And in the close of his discourse, Sic certè à Domino ad B. Petrum dicitur, Petre amas me?
A64057And must we doe so too?
A64057And therefore he was no Bishop?
A64057And what remedy was there for that?
A64057And what things are those?
A64057And what''s that?
A64057As if he had said, I speak to You, for to whom else should I speak and give caution for the looking to the house in the Masters absence?
A64057As well this as the other, for if Deaconship doe not exclude Episcopacy, why shall his being an Evangelist exclude it?
A64057BUt then did not this imployment, when the occasions were great, and extraordinary, force the Bishops to a temporary absence?
A64057But by whom?
A64057But for what use?
A64057But how did they when all that was gone?
A64057But how if the Bishop himselfe be a heretick, or schismatick?
A64057But how if they come on him by Divine imposition, or accident?
A64057But how then did they to baptize their Children?
A64057But how then shall he keepe ordinations when he hath never a Presbyter to assist him?
A64057But if so, then why may not the King as well make Clergy- Iudges, as Lay- Delegates?
A64057But if they had no more power after Titus then they had under him, how then could they succeed him?
A64057But must we have Lord Bishops too?
A64057But shall we then condemne those few of the Reformed Churches whose ordinations alwaies have beene without Bishops?
A64057But suppose a while Titus had been an Evangelist, I would faine know who succeeded him?
A64057But then are all ordinations invalid which are done by meere Presbyters without a Bishop?
A64057But then they may with license?
A64057But then why are they called Acephali?
A64057But there were none such in the Primitive Church?
A64057But was this all the inconvenience of the want of Bishops?
A64057But what then might they have done?
A64057But what then?
A64057But who then must elect them?
A64057But why not BRETHREN, that is, all the Deacons, and Evangelists, and Helpers in Governement, and Ministers of the Churches?
A64057But why therefore Lay- Elders?
A64057But why upon this reprehension, if not for feare of being punished?
A64057But why were they called Acephali?
A64057But will not necessity excuse them who could not have orders from Orthodoxe Bishops?
A64057But, how did they for the Holy Sacrament, for that could not be consecrated without a Priest, and he not ordain''d without a Bishop?
A64057By what law?
A64057Calvin was perpetuall president; and Beza, till Danaeus came to Geneva, even for many years together?
A64057Cathedra tibi quid fecit Ecclesiae Romanae, in quâ Petrus sedit,& in quâ hodiè Anastasius sedet?
A64057D ● inde qui unum[ Presbyterum] habuerit, numquid debet illi ipse unus Presbyter auferri?
A64057Deinde qui vnum habuerit, numquid debet illi ipse vnus Presbyter auferri?
A64057Did the Primitive Councells, and Fathers doe well in condemning the ordinations made by meere Presbyters?
A64057For if a Bishop can have but one Parish, why may not every Parish have a Bishop?
A64057For if these men are resolved they will call nothing an order but what is a power in order to consecration of the Eucharist, who can help it?
A64057For is it a sinne in Episcopacy to doe so, and not in the Presbytery?
A64057For is it a sinne, if it continues, and no sinne if it lasts but for a weeke?
A64057For the question here that is only of concernment, is not to what end this power is reserved to the Bishop, but by whom it was reserved?
A64057For what is the divine authority that he mentions?
A64057For what power had they of Iurisdiction?
A64057For whether( to instance in this place) shall Presbyter limit Episcopus, or Episcopus extend Presbyter?
A64057For why should they obay?
A64057From Antiquity?
A64057From Scripture?
A64057From when 〈 ◊ 〉 then?
A64057Had Christ authority?
A64057He hath an Empire, but hath he also a Bishoprick?
A64057Hostis Herodes impie Christum venire quid times?
A64057How and if these Presbyters, which came from Ephesus and the other parts of Asia were made Bishops at Miletus?
A64057How can that be?
A64057How if the Bishop have but one Priest, must his Bishop part with him to supply the necessity of the Neighbour widdow- Church?
A64057How will their Superiority be reconciled to the place, though it be but temporary?
A64057I end this with the saying of S. Hierome, Exigis ubi scriptum sit?
A64057If an ordinary necessity will not excuse this, will not an extraordinary calling justifie it?
A64057If it be ask''d who then are meant by Elders, if by[ Brethren] S. Luke understands these Church officers?
A64057If not, then still who succeeded him?
A64057If so, then who shall reject Hereticks when Titus is dead?
A64057If the Apostles did not represent the whole Church, why then doe all communicate?
A64057If the Bishop have but one Presbyter must that one be taken from him?
A64057If the Bishops had the Parishes, what cure had the Priests?
A64057If then ye have judgements of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the Church] who are they?
A64057If they did ill, from what principle shall wee judge of the right of ordinations?
A64057If they had, then what did Titus doe there?
A64057If they had, why did S. Paul take it from them to invest Titus with it?
A64057If this were not true, how shall the Church be governed?
A64057If you aske where it is written?
A64057Is not the King fons utriusque jurisdictionis?
A64057May we not be called DOCTORS?
A64057May we not then separate?
A64057Might they not be called Gratious Lords?
A64057Nay is there any such thing as consecration at all?
A64057No, was not?
A64057No?
A64057Not so: how?
A64057Not to prove that Presbyters are sometimes called Presbyters; For who doubts that?
A64057Now what is this ordinary office?
A64057Numquid omnes Apostoli?
A64057Or did all his office expire with his person?
A64057Or if he did not, to what purpose did he send Titus with all those powers before mentioned?
A64057Or why may not his being a Deacon exclude his being an Evangelist, as well as his being an Evangelist, exclude his being a Bishop?
A64057Quando audisti( Clementissime Imperator) in causâ fidei Laicos de Episcopo judicâsse?
A64057Quid Ministros plurimos, quid Diaconos in tertio, quid Presbyteros in secundo Sacerdotio constitutos?
A64057Quid commemorem Laicos qui tunc in Ecclesiâ nullâ fuerant dignitate suffulti?
A64057Quid enim aliud est Episcopus,& c. For what else is a Bishop but he that is greater then all power?
A64057Quo jure was this?
A64057Suppose the ordinary Diocesses had been parishes, yet what were the Metropolitans, and the Primates, were they also parish- Bishops?
A64057The Presbyters which were at Crete before his comming had not Episcopall power, or coercitive jurisdiction, for why then was Titus sent?
A64057The Presbyters?
A64057The next Consideration concerning the Bishop''s jurisdiction is of what persons he is Iudge?
A64057To what?
A64057Vel Ecclesiae Hierosolymitanae IN QVA IACOBUS SEDIT,& in quâ hodiè Iohannes sedet?
A64057Was not that also by custome and condescension rather then by Divine disposition?
A64057What are those?
A64057What dignity had these seaven here ordained?
A64057What else should they feare?
A64057What in none?
A64057What is the Presbytery, but a sacred Colledge, Counsellors and helpers or assessors to the Bishop?
A64057What shall we think now?
A64057What then must be done?
A64057What then shall not be so with them?
A64057What then was to be done in the case?
A64057What then will doe it?
A64057What think we of the reformed Churches?
A64057When was it ever knowne that Lay- men in a cause of Faith did judge a Bishop?
A64057Where are the Presbyters in the interim?
A64057Whether is higher, a Bishoprick, or the office of an Evangelist?
A64057Which was first, a particular congregation or a Diocesse?
A64057Who shall silence factious Preachers?
A64057Who then is that faithfull and wise Steward, whom his Lord shall make ruler?]
A64057Who then was the Parish Curate?
A64057Why Brethren, if Bishops and Priests were to be the Iudges, they are Fathers?
A64057Why is not the question rather, what we think of the Primitive Church, then what we think of the reformed Churches?
A64057Why may not Presbyter signify one that is verily a Bishop, as Episcopus signify a meere Presbyter?
A64057Why may not[ Bishops] be meant in the proper sense?
A64057Why may there not be diverse Church- officers, and yet but one, or two of them the Preacher?
A64057Why so?
A64057Why then did the Church require the Bishop''s leave?
A64057Why unto Iames?
A64057Will not Aërius come under one of these titles for a condemn''d heretick?
A64057Yea; but did not S. Titus ordaine no meere Presbyters?
A64057[ Art not thou MY LORD Elijah?]
A64057[ Dare any of you having a matter before another goe to law before the Vnjust, and not before the Saints?
A64057[ Is there not one wise man among you that is able to Iudge betweene his Brethren?]
A64057[ Knowest thou not that God will take THY LORD from thy head this day?]
A64057[ Who then is that faithfull and wise steward whom his Lord made ruler over his Houshold?]
A64057but what were these Prophets?
A64057can he give, what himselfe hath not received?
A64057is it not next to an evidence of fact, that this multiplication of Schismes must be removendo prohibens?
A64057might not Presbyters doe their duty without a license?
A64057of Deacons?
A64057or else why may not Deacons be confounded, and be all one with Bishop, as well as Presbyter?
A64057or is it lawfull to sinne, and domineere, and Lord it over their Brethren for a weeke together?
A64057put case they were not Diocesan, but parish Bishops, what then?
A64057shall not they exercise authority?
A64057the Bishop or the Priest?
A64057to sinne?
A64057what shall not be so with them?
A64057what was their heresie?
A64137A wise man or a good, would not choose it: would any of you die an Atheist that you might live in plenty and power?
A64137Am I a dry tree to the house of Israel?
A64137And can it be a wonder that they whose cause wants reason, should betake themselves to the sword?
A64137And do not we finde all this to be a great truth in our selves?
A64137And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shal the ungodly and the sinner appear?
A64137And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
A64137And now if we would know in the Gospel what answers these precedent sins?
A64137And now it will be a vain question to ask, whether or no God can not save a dying man that repents after a vitious life?
A64137And what hurt is it to thee if a persecution draws thee from the vanities of a former prosperity, and forces thee into the sobrieties of a holy life?
A64137And what is the prosperity of the wicked?
A64137And who can choose but know it?
A64137And why else should it be necessary for us to pray, that we be not lead into temptation?
A64137Are not all the men and the women of the world provided for, and fed and clothed till they die?
A64137Are not his subjects fields bedewed with the same showers that water his gardens of pleasure?
A64137Are not there a thousand dangers, and ten thousand difficulties, and innumerable possibilities of a misadventure?
A64137Are there not very many, who know not the particular duties of meeknesse, and never consider concerning Long suffering?
A64137Are your communions more frequent?
A64137Bion seeing a Prince weep and tearing his hair for sorrow, asked if baldnesse would cure his grief?
A64137But amongst a thousand how many can explicate and unfold for his own practise the ten Commandments; And how many sorts of sins are there forbidden?
A64137But does this cure the intemperance of their affections?
A64137But here it is usually inquired whether it be lawful to tell a lie, or dissemble to save a good mans life, or to do him a great benefit?
A64137But if it be worth it, and all of it be necessary, why should we not labour in order to this great end?
A64137But if we be not sorrowfull in the first period, how shall we be so, or know it in the second period?
A64137But in order to the following discourse and its method, we are first to consider whether this be, or indeed can be a commandement, or what is it?
A64137But is it not a strange cozenage, that our hearts shall be the main wheel in the engine, and shall set all the rest on working?
A64137But is not every man an unequal judge in his own case?
A64137But is not he a Tyrant, and an usur ● per, an oppressor, and an extortioner, if he will force thee to give thy soul for him?
A64137But now besides all the premises, we have another account to make concerning the prosperity of the wicked: For if judgment first begin at us?
A64137But shall such persons despair of salvation?
A64137But then if the punishment increases the sin, by what instrument can the punishment be removed?
A64137But then is the soul the onely safe and the onely trifling thing about us?
A64137But there are some friends that weep at parting; and is not thy weeping a sorrow of affection?
A64137But to us what shall be the 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉?
A64137But what advantage shall we receive by a spiritual Guide?
A64137But what then?
A64137But which of all his relatives shall dare to tell him of his indiscretion, of his rage and of his folly?
A64137But who shall guide the vessel when a stormy passion or a violent imagination transports the man?
A64137But why do I talk of great things in this Question of the exchange of the soul for the world?
A64137But why may not we be saved as well as the thief upon the crosse?
A64137But will not trusting in the merits of Jesus Christ save such a man?
A64137Can a dying man to any real effect resolve to be chast?
A64137Can not a man quench his thirst as well out of an Urn or Chalice, as out of a whole River?
A64137Can such purposes prevail against a long impiety rather then against a young and a newly begun state of sin?
A64137Can the greatest Prince inclose the Sun, and set one little star in his cabinet for his own use?
A64137Can your master free you from a fever, when you have drunk your self into it?
A64137Despisest thou the riches of his goodnesse, and forbearance, and long- suffering, not knowing that the goodnesse of God leadeth thee to repentance?
A64137Despisest thou the riches of his goodnesse, and forbearance, and long- suffering, not knowing that the goodnesse of God leadeth thee to repentance?
A64137Did ever any joynt of our body knit, or our heart ever keep one true minute of a pulse without God?
A64137Did he pay his blood for you, to save you from death?
A64137Did the man make you what you are?
A64137Did the world create us?
A64137Do you love God more dutifully and your neighbour with a greater charity?
A64137Doe the Sun or the stars preserve us alive?
A64137Does God take care for Oxen?
A64137Does he keep you from sicknesse?
A64137Does not God plant remedies there where the diseases are most popular, and every Countrey is best provided against its own evils?
A64137Does not God send his angels to keep thee in all thy wayes?
A64137Does not he study all the wayes to ruine us?
A64137First, then suppose a man gets all the world, what is it that he gets?
A64137For can all men that give up their names in baptisme, be enjoyned to be wise and prudent?
A64137For if God be so gracious to the wicked, how much more is he to the godly?
A64137For if he be subject to another, how can he be Lord of the whole world?
A64137For if he did not then, at the first, dictate words( as we know not whether he did or no) why shall he be suppos ● d to do so now?
A64137For impu ● ity was never a good argument to make men to obey laws, quotusq ● isque reperitur qui impunitate proposita abstinere possit injurijs?
A64137For what Christian is so uninstructed but that he knows Adultery is a sin?
A64137For what can all the world minister to a sick person?
A64137For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
A64137For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
A64137For what should hinder him?
A64137For who shall make him recompence that lost his life in a Duel, fought about a draught of wine, or a cheaper woman?
A64137God was fain to multiply miracles to make Christ capable of being a man of sorrows ▪ and shall we think he will work miracles to make us delicate?
A64137Had not David suffered more if he had suffered lesse, and had he not been miserable unlesse he had been afflicted?
A64137Hadst thou never any dangerous fall in thy intemperance?
A64137Hath God made any of you all chapfallen?
A64137How many Kings have groaned under the burden of their crowns, and have sunk down and died?
A64137How many men are there in the world, that against every Communion renew their vowes of holy living?
A64137How many persons are there in the world, that say they are sure of their salvation, and yet they dare not die?
A64137How shall we be pardoned and eased, when our remedies are converted into causes of the sicknesse, and our antidotes are poison?
A64137How then?
A64137If Christ suffered so many things onely that he might give us glory, shall it be strange that we shall suffer who are to receive this glory?
A64137If God be thus kinde when he is Angry, what is he when he feasts us with caresses of his more tender Kindnesse?
A64137If God can not endure wantonnesse, how can he suffer lascivious dressings, tempting circumstances, wanton eyes, high diet?
A64137If a holy life be not necessary to be liv''d, why shall it be necessary to resolve to live it?
A64137If they on earth be miserable many times for their fathers sins, how great a state of misery is that in hell which they suffer for their own?
A64137Is it not a great thing that God hath made such strange provisions for our health?
A64137Is it not a sad thing that the Jew should say, the Christians worship images?
A64137Is it not plain, that not the Vertue, but its Reputation is the thing that is pursued?
A64137Is not the affliction of ● overty better then the prosperity of a great and tempting fortune?
A64137Is not the least sin a greater evil then the great est of sufferings?
A64137Is our ambition changed into vertuous and noble thoughts?
A64137Is our heart so secret to our selves?
A64137Is the change reasonable?
A64137Is there any thing more yet?
A64137Is there no comfort after all this?
A64137It is good that we will not seek out opportunities to sin; but are not we too apprehensive of it, when it is presented?
A64137Know ye not,( saith, S. Paul) that ye shall judge Angels?
A64137Let him see whether a drunken meeting will cure a fever, or make him wise?
A64137Let him tell me, if spending great summes of money upon his lusts will make him sleep soundly, or be rich?
A64137Lo this is the goodly change you have made, you had your good things in your life time, and how like you the portion that is reserved to you for ever?
A64137Must a man repent a yeer, or two, or seven yeers, or ten, or twenty before his death?
A64137Next I am to consider why this is so, and why it is justly so?
A64137No?
A64137Now I ask, does he wish so upon reason, or without reason?
A64137Now if we be sorrowfull in the first stage, how happens it that we know it not?
A64137On the one side there was scandalum crucis, on the other patientia sanctorum, and what was the event?
A64137One of the great strengths, shall I call it?
A64137Or did lust ever do us any good: Did Sathan ever suffer one stripe for our advantage?
A64137Or do we get understanding from the Angels?
A64137Or the exercise of long suffering?
A64137Quae mens est hodie, cur eadem non puero fuit?
A64137Quis curam neget esse te Deoruni propter quem fuit innocens ruina?
A64137Secondly we will consider what is likely to be obtained really, and indeed of the world, and what are really the miseries of a lost soul?
A64137Shall he rely upon Princes?
A64137Shall we suppose a man to pray against his sin?
A64137Si sio irascitur, quomodo convivatur?
A64137Surely then his present condition in respect of his past sin hath some very great evil in it, why else should he be so much troubled?
A64137Tell the joynts of thy body, dost thou want a finger?
A64137That they are to consider the conditions which on one side God requires of us, and on the other side, whether they have done accordingly?
A64137The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperatly wicked; who can know it?
A64137The heart is deceitfull above all things, and desperately wicked; who can know it?
A64137These are but ill signes How then shall I know by some infallible token, that I am a true Penitent?
A64137This is not forbidden, but does this become you?
A64137To what end?
A64137Well, what is given to them?
A64137Well?
A64137Well?
A64137What and if I weep for my sins?
A64137What arguments shall invite a man to suffer torments, in testimony of a proposition of naturall Philosophy?
A64137What could he propound to himself as a recompence to his own so immediate Tragedy?
A64137What had the people to do with their Kings fault?
A64137What is it to me that Rome was taken by the Gauls?
A64137What losse is it, what misery?
A64137What shall I say more?
A64137What shall become of him who by his evil life hath not onely removed himself from the affections, but even from the possibilities of vertue?
A64137What shall it profit a man?
A64137What was the event of it?
A64137What would you do if God should command you to kill your eldest son?
A64137What?
A64137Where were the opportunities, to give God the greatest love?
A64137Where were the trial of our faith?
A64137Wherefore are all they happy that deal very treacherously?
A64137Who is able to distinguish his fear of God from fear of punishment?
A64137Who then shall we trust in?
A64137Who will endure to heare his curate tell him, that he is Covetous, or that he is proud?
A64137Why should God cause us to be born of Christian parents, and not to be circumcised by the impure hands of a Turkish Priest?
A64137Will God at an easier rate pardon the sins of fifty or sixty yeers, then the sins of our youth onely, or the iniquity of five yeers, or ten?
A64137Will he undertake a por ● tion of thy flames?
A64137Without the suffering of Saints, where were the exaltation of the crosse, the conformity of the members to Christ their Head, the coronets of Martyrs?
A64137Would not the son of Tarquin have refused to ravish Lucrece if Junius Brutus had been by him?
A64137Would the impurest person in the world act his lust in the market place?
A64137Wouldany man curse the King to his face, if he were sure to have both his hands burnt off, and to be tormented with torments three yeers together?
A64137You see the Commandements: Will you also see the Promises?
A64137and hope to be saved by his merits?
A64137and if a man perishes in his soul, is it not infinitely more sad then if he could rise from his grave and die a thousand deaths over?
A64137and if we desire them earnestly, must we not pray for them fervently?
A64137and if we value them highly, must we not desire them earnestly?
A64137and restore your innocence when you have forsworn your self for his interest?
A64137and was it not alwayes so from the first morning of the creatures?
A64137and what is it now to Camillus if different religions be tolerated amongst us?
A64137and whatsoever we ask for fervently, must not we beg for frequently?

A64137are not you glad when the thing is done?
A64137are you affrighted with spectars and ● llusions of the spirits of darknesse?
A64137art not thou kept from drowing, from fracture of bones, from madnesse, from deformities, by the riches of the divine goodnesse?
A64137but how infinitely more can God say to all of us then all this came to?

A64137but what will you have a man do that hath lived wickedly, and is now cast upon his death- bed?
A64137can we emulate without envy?
A64137can we hold our tapers neer the flames and not suck it in greedily like Naphtha or prepared Nitre?
A64137can you be willing to all that God is willing, and suffer all that he chooses as willingly as if you had chosen your own fortune?
A64137did none of you ever scape drowning, and in a great danger saw the forbearance of God?
A64137do you go to your secular accounts with a more weaned affection then before?
A64137do you not so easily return to the world as formerly?
A64137does not wisdom dwell in a mean estate and a low spirit ▪ retired thoughts and under a sad roof?
A64137have you made firmer resolutions and entertained more hearty purposes of amendment?

A64137that we might lives as we list?
A64137that what he can not perswade he may wrest?
A64137that, what the first sacrifice to religion, and the second to publick joy, we should spend in malice, covetousnesse, and revenge?

A64137to sin in hope of repentance?
A64137trust in God?
A64137vel cur his animis incolumes non redeunt genae?
A64137was this an effect of his anger or of his love that God sent his Son to work our pardon and salvation?
A64137were not heaven a great bargain even after all this?
A64137what can affright a man from it, if these invite him to it?

A64137who shall awaken his reason and charm his passion into slumber& instruction?
A64137why do we not so aptly promise repentance when we are sick upon the condition to be made well, and yet perpetually forget it when we are well?
A64137will it not appear pleasant to you next week, and the next week after that, and so for ever?
A64137will you not then give me leave to conclude my heart right with God, and at enmity with sin?

A64137wouldest thou not repent of thy sins upon that condition?
A64145* For what good will it do us to partake of his body, if we do not also partake of his spirit?
A64145* Quin horres, vererisque talia committere, ac altaria frequentare?
A64145And are not we angry at an unavoidable chance?
A64145And have you so left it that you have left it all, and will you do so for ever?
A64145And how is it with you in your angers?
A64145And how we mean to end that entercourse?
A64145And the Lord their God shall save them as the flock of his people, for how great is his goodness, and how great is his beauty?
A64145And were it not evidently better to withdraw from him that smites?
A64145And what amends can we make to our Creditors?
A64145And what have we to do to inquire into the philosophy of Sacraments?
A64145And what if he that smote one cheek will smite no more?
A64145And what will be the effect of our Communion?
A64145And who shall rej ● ct every man that he believes to be proud, or covetous, or envious?
A64145And why does any of us come to the holy Communion if we do not believe it will be for our good?
A64145Are his affections warm and earnest, inqu ● sitive and longing, interrested and concern''d in the things of God?
A64145Are we in trouble till we converse with our Lord in all the ways of spiritual entercourse?
A64145Are we patient under the evil, being supported by the expectation of the good which is promised to follow?
A64145Are you not quick in telling it, and willing enough it should be believed?
A64145Are you ready to do him good?
A64145Are you so sorrowful that you hate it?
A64145Are your desires unreasonable, passionate, impotent and transporting?
A64145Atque illud etiam scire cupio quo consilio aut quâ mente fueris ut in epulo C. Arcii familiaris mei cum togâ pullâ accumberes?
A64145But I pray who is worthy?
A64145But can it in no case be lawful to put off our restitution or reconciliation with our brother?
A64145But consider I pray and examine better; is the disease cured because the skin is broken?
A64145But how often is it advisable that a good man should Communicate?
A64145But if he be present to us, not in mystery only, but in blessing also, why do we not worship?
A64145But is he that intends to communicate bound to quit all those occasions of sin, by which himself was tempted, and did fall, and die?
A64145But of what nature and extent must our preparatory resolution be?
A64145But to believe in Christ is to eat the bread; and therefore why do you prepare your teeth and stomach?
A64145But what is then meant by turning the other cheek?
A64145But what need we to draw this water from the lesser cisterns?
A64145By no means?
A64145By what we are disabled?
A64145Can God only help with means?
A64145Can a man bind a thought with chains, or carry imaginations in the palm of his hand?
A64145Can not the rod of God do good as well as the bread of God?
A64145Can the beauty of the Peacocks train, or the Estrich plume, be delicious to the palat and the throat?
A64145Can we rejoyce under the mercy by the joys of believing at the same time when we groan under the affliction by the passions of sense?
A64145Can you be at peace within when your purposes are defeated; and at peace abroad with him that stands in the way between you and your desires?
A64145Can you relieve your enemy, if he were in want?
A64145Can you then relie upon the promise?
A64145Cui bono?
A64145Did we contract the smel of fire, or the pollution of smoak?
A64145Did we do our duties then, and then learn to do them better?
A64145Did ye not know that I ought to be in* my fathers house?
A64145Do I repent?
A64145Do men believe God, and yet doing these things hope to be saved for all these terrible sayings?
A64145Do not we exact every little ignorance, and grow warm at every mistake?
A64145Do not you laugh at his miscarriages?
A64145Do not you sometimes secretly rejoyce in the diminution or disparagement of your brother?
A64145Do not you tell his sad and shameful story with some pleasure?
A64145Do we believe that our present affliction will do so?
A64145Do we desire to be forgiven no otherwise?
A64145Do we observe the design of cure, when we feel the pain and the smart?
A64145Do we rejoyce when a Communion day comes?
A64145Do you delight in his honour and prosperity?
A64145Do you do good to all you can?
A64145Do you readily excuse your neighbours faults?
A64145Do you rejoyce when he is made glad?
A64145Do you so hate it that you have left it?
A64145Do you stand ready in mind to do all good offices to all you can converse with?
A64145Do you stop his entry into folly and shame?
A64145Does it last so long, or return so frequently as before?
A64145Does the Body live as does the Spirit, or can the Body of Christ be like to common food?
A64145Does the hand intermeddle with the joys of the heart, or darkness that hides the naked, make him warm?
A64145Examine yet further: is your case so, that you have no reserves of cases in which your sin shall prevail?
A64145For it is all one as if it were asked, How often should a healthful man eat; or he that hath infirmities, take Physick?
A64145For thou hast delivered our souls from death: wilt not thou deliver our feet from falling, that we may walk before God in the light of the living?
A64145For was it in vain, was it said to no purpose; whatsoever ye shall loose in earth shall be loosed in heaven?
A64145For who is God save the Lord?
A64145Fot what man is so barbarous as to recover his leprosie by sucking the life blood from dying infants?
A64145Have you the same malice, or have you the same peevishness?
A64145Have you wept for your sin so that you were indeed sorrowful and afflicted in your spirit?
A64145He sheweth no mercy to a man that is like himself, and doth he ask forgiveness for his own sins?
A64145Here are prayers enough, but where are the desires all this while?
A64145Here we must examine whether we be able to pay them?
A64145How can Christs body be communicated to them who are one flesh with an harlot?
A64145How far we are bound to forgive our enemy that does repent, and how far him that does not?
A64145How far we must have proceeded in our General repentance and emendation of our lives before we Communicate?
A64145How great therefore and how illustrious benefits( it is the meditation of St. Eusebius Emissenus) does the power of the Divine blessing produce?
A64145How if we are not able to bear a second blow?
A64145How is it that I do not forget all deliciousness besides thee?
A64145How long and how often must we proceed in our forgiveness, and accept of the repentance of injurious persons?
A64145How long and how often must we proceed in our pardon to the penitent?
A64145How shall not my bowels melt into thee the Sun of righteousness?
A64145How then shall we know?
A64145How we can secure that they shall be paid?
A64145I wonder( saith St. Cyprian) what peace they can look for that are at war with their brethren?
A64145If God refuses to give you what you desire, can you lay your head softly down upon the lap of providence and rest content without it?
A64145If he that is but flesh nourish hatred, who will intreat for pardon of his sins?]
A64145If one prayes for thee, and another prayes against thee, who knows whether thou shalt be blessed or accursed?
A64145If so, whether presently or afterwards?
A64145If the perfume of thy oyntment be sufficient to all the the world, what is the refection of thy Table?
A64145If we do believe, why are we without comfort and without patience?
A64145If we do not believe it, where is our faith?
A64145If you ask why?
A64145In order to this; examine whether there be in thee any good principle stronger than all the Arguments and flatteries of thy sin?
A64145Is an Angel worthy enough?
A64145Is desire the measure of our prayer?
A64145Is it not sufficient to resolve to do it afterward, and in the mean time to receive the Sacrament?
A64145Is not he the same in his School as at his Table?
A64145Is not his physick as wholesome as his food?
A64145It is certain we do not usually forgive things of this nature to our brother; what then will become of our prayer?
A64145It is no small thing I ask; O my God, can it ever be that my God should delight in me?
A64145It is nothing but asking our selves a few questions: Do I believe?
A64145It is nothing to despise a cheap sin and a common temptation; but art thou strong enough to overcome the strongest argument that thy sin hath?
A64145It is tied but to little duty, and a few plain articles; what then is the use and advantages of it?
A64145Must we resolve against all sin, or against some kinds only?
A64145My crimes are intolerable, and my imperfections shameful, and my omissions innumerable; and what shall I do O thou preserver of men?
A64145Not whether God smiles or no, but to what purposes he smiles?
A64145Not whether this be not evil, but whether this evil will not bring good to us?
A64145Now that thou art truly and effectively present with me, how can any other pleasure in the world seem pleasant to me any more?
A64145Now then what can any man suppose a Sacrament to be, and what can be meant by sacramental participation?
A64145O Mysterious God, ineffable and glorious Majesty; what is this that thou hast done to the sons of men?
A64145Once in a year, or thrice, or every month, or every fortnigbt; every sunday, or every day?
A64145One man keepeth anger against another, and doth he seek healing from the Lord?
A64145Or how if the offering the other cheek provoke thy enemy to scorn thee, and tempt or provoke him to strike thee, who intended no such second blow?
A64145Or may he let it alone, and worthily communicate, if the offending party does not seek it?
A64145Or would we have God pardon us only for little things, for a rash word, or an idle hour spent less severely?
A64145Quae vindicta prior quam cùm formido superbos Flectit,& assuetum spoliis affligit egestas?
A64145Quam sibi pacem promittunt inimici fratrum?
A64145Question V. Whether the injured person be bound to offer peace?

A64145Quidenim prodest siunus prote oret ad Dominum& alius adversum te Deum interpellet?
A64145Simon his Disciple saith unto him, seven times in a day?
A64145So St. Chrysostom upon those words of Christ; the flesh profiteth nothing: what is it to understand carnally?
A64145So St. Chrysostom; In Christ once the Sacrifice was offered, which is powerful to our eternal salvation; but what then do we?
A64145The next enquiry is, What is the use of faith in this Sacrament?
A64145The stars fell from heaven; and what can I presume, who am but dust and ashes?
A64145The wine is the wine of Angels; but if you desire it not, what should you do with it?

A64145To the Question, whether of the parties must begin the peace?
A64145To what graces does it minister, and what effect does it produce?
A64145To what purpose is our repentance?

A64145Whether is it better to communicate seldom or frequently?
A64145Whether the injured person be bound to offer peace and seek for reconcilement?
A64145Whether the precept of charity and forgivenesse obliges us not to go to Law?
A64145Whether the precept of forgiveness, and the charity of the Communion must of necessity put a period to all Law- suits?
A64145Whether we are to forgive him that does not repent, and how far if he does, and how far if he does not?
A64145Whether we can and ought to alter the state of our expences?
A64145Who are so cruel as Cowards, and who so revengeful as the weakest and the most passionate women?
A64145Who shall define pride, or convince a single person of a proud heart, or of his latent envy?
A64145Who then can?
A64145Why do we say we are sorrowful?
A64145Will you be content that God should despise you as you despise your brother?
A64145Will you willingly give friendly counsel?
A64145Would we have God do so to us, and forgive us in no other manner than as we do, that is, turn his anger into every shape, and smite us in every part?
A64145[ What cause is there, O Hearers, that ye see the Table and come not to the Banquet?]
A64145and am I in charity?
A64145and canst not thou again be tempted?
A64145and how vast, how innumerable, how intolerable are the evils which I have done?
A64145and if they can not, how much can we do towards it?
A64145and in what sense, and to what purposes, and with what truth it is said that in the holy Sacrament we receive Christ by faith?
A64145and is labour the fruit of our desire?
A64145and is not he as good in his discipline as in his provision?
A64145and whether all men be bound to communicate frequently, and what measure is the safest and best in this inquiry?
A64145and who is our rock save our God?
A64145and who shall give rules by which every single man that is to blame can be convinc''d of covetousnesse?
A64145and wilt not thou then lay thy foolish head upon the lap of the Philistian damsel, and sleep till thy locks be cut, and all thy strength is gone?
A64145and yet if we do believe it, what do we think will become of us, who neither follow peace nor holiness, but follow our anger and pursue our lust?
A64145but if we do think it will, why do we not think so of our crosse?
A64145do not we offer every day?
A64145do you not know that where- ever he sets his foot, he is within his fathers house, or territory?
A64145how little and inconsiderable is the good which I do?
A64145is it not likely that the sin will look prettily, and talk flattering words, and entice thee with softnesses and easie fallacies?
A64145like Gold in the fire, did we untwist our selves from all complications and mixtures with impurer drosse?
A64145nunquid carnes sanctae auferent à te malitias tuas?
A64145or are we improved by the purification of the discerning flames?
A64145or can not he also make the means, or help without them; or see them when you see them not?
A64145or is it that you fear whether he will or no?
A64145or to sweeten him with gentle language?
A64145or were we like Gold, patient of the hammer, and approved by the stone of tryal?
A64145or whether may he let it alone, if the offending party does not seek it?
A64145or will smite the same?
A64145or wilt thou never be scorched with the flames of Corinna''s beauty?
A64145quis unquam coenavit atratus?

A64145why do they not ask after the lust of the Sacrifice ● s, more than the little spot upon the bulls liver?
A64145will the appetite return no more?
A64145ye never knew me wander, or lose my way, or abide but where I ought; why therefore did ye not come hither to look for me?

A63741And after all this, in the conduct of Government what remedy can there be to those that call themselves Tender Consciences?
A63741And do not we see and feel that at this very day the Pride of men makes it seem impossible for many persons to obey their Superiors?

A63741But what then again?
A63741But what then?
A63741But what''s that to us who saw it not?
A63741But will we do nothing else?
A63741By this you may try your faith, if you please, and make an end of this question: Do you believe in the Lord Jesus, yea or no?
A63741Can any man be justified that does not love God?
A63741Can any thing be beyond this?

A63741Can not sin be avoided?
A63741Can not the works of the Devil be destroyed?

A63741Could the poor Demoniack that liv''d in the Graves, by the power of the Devil break his iron chains in pieces?
A63741Do not all men desire to end their dayes in Religion, to dye in the arms of the Church, to expire under the conduct of a religious man?

A63741First Christ, and then they that are Christ''s: But what shall become of them that are not Christs?
A63741For did not our blessed Saviour say, that an Oath is the end of all questions, and after depositions are taken, all Judges go to sentence?
A63741For do we not see by experience that nothing of equal loudness does awaken us sooner than a mans voice, especially if he be called by name?
A63741For how shall any man preach against sin, or affright his people from their dangers, if he denies Gods justice?
A63741For let any man consider, can the Faith of Christ, and the hatred of God stand together?
A63741For the matter of giving offences, what scandal is greater than that which scandalizes the Laws?
A63741For till that be done, how can any man tell where the fault lies, or whether it can be done or no?
A63741For what do we think of those that detain the Faith in Unrighteousness?
A63741For what think we of those that did miracles in Christs name, and in his name cast out Devils?
A63741For will God bless them, or pardon them, by whom so many Souls perish?

A63741Have you any hope, or any faith when you say that Prayer?
A63741He that saith he hath not sinned, is a liar; but what then?
A63741How can a wicked man understand the purities of the heart?
A63741How shall he reconcile the penitents, who is himself at enmity with God?
A63741How shall he that hath not tasted of the Spirit by contemplation, stir up others to earnest desires of Coelestial things?
A63741I can say no more, but to expostulate with them in those upbraiding words of God in the Prophet; Do they provoke me to anger saith the Lord?
A63741I have tried all the ways I can to bring thee home, and what shall I now do unto thee?
A63741I shall for the tryal of our faith ask one easie question; Do we believe that the story of David and Jonathan is true?

A63741If a man strikes his Neighbor, and sayes, Am not I in jest?
A63741If faith alone will not do it, what will?

A63741If we can besaved without Charity and keeping the Commandments, what need we trouble our selves for them?
A63741If we did hate all sins as we hate these, would it not be as easie to be as innocent in other instances as most men are in these?
A63741If you do not think so, why do you not leave it?
A63741Is it not a monument of a lasting reproach, that one of the Popes of Rome condemned the Bishop of Sulzback for saying that there were Antipodes?
A63741Is it not a piece of our Catechism, the first thing we are taught, and is it not the last thing that we practise?
A63741Is it to be supposed that a Godly man is better enabled to determine the Questions of Purgatory of Transubstantiation?
A63741Is not Repentance a forsaking all sin, and an intire returning unto God?
A63741Is not such a Law, a Law without an obligation?
A63741Is not the Adultery of the eye easily cured by shutting the eye- lid?
A63741Is not the Government a part of it?
A63741Is there no comfort after all this?
A63741It is very hard when the Prince is forc''d to say to his rebellious Subject, as God did to his stubborn People, Quid faciam tibi?
A63741Many shall be purified, and made white, and tryed; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and what then?
A63741May not every man chuse whether he will obey or no?
A63741Must it always be so?
A63741Nay, if from these we have not sufficient causes, and arguments of Faith, how shall we be able to know the will of Heaven upon Earth?
A63741Now among all the pretensions of Reformation, who can tell better what is, and what is not, true Reformation, than he that is truly Reformed himself?
A63741Now consider; Do not we every day pray in the Divine Hymn called Te Deum, Vouchsafe, O Lord, to keep us this day without sin?
A63741Now which of these says true?
A63741Or can any man love God and sin at the same time?
A63741Or is it harder to overcome a little sin than a great one?
A63741Or is the Conscience of the Superior bound to relax his Laws if the Inferior tells him so?
A63741Or what good shall the people receive, when the Bishop layes upon their head a covetous or a cruel, an unjust or an impure hand?
A63741Quid enim vultis me otiosum à Domino comprehendi?
A63741Remember your dignity to which Christ hath called you: shall such a man as I flee, said the brave Eleazar?
A63741Saucior invidiae morsu, quaerenda medela est, Dic quibus in terris sentiet aeger opem?
A63741Scilicet expectes ut tradat mater honestos Atque alios mores quam quos habet?
A63741Shall the Execution of the Law be suspended as to all such persons?
A63741Shall they reign with Christ who evacuate the death of Christ, and make it useless to dear Souls?
A63741Some men are drunk with Phancy, and mad with Opinion: Who believe more strongly than boyes and women?
A63741That doth not feed and clothe these members?
A63741That''s not possible: and can not a man as well deny God by an evil action, as by an heretical Proposition?
A63741That''s well: but shall all Christians have the Spirit?
A63741The Spirit of God is our teacher: he will abide with us for ever to be our teacher: he will teach us all things; but how?
A63741The Subject should rather say, Quid me vis facere?
A63741The next enquiry is, What must the dis- agreeing Subject do when he supposes the Superiors command is against the Law of God?
A63741The same question I am to ask concerning the words of my Text: Does S. Paul mean this of himself, or of some other?
A63741Therefore labour against every part of it, reject every proposition that gives it countenance; pray to God against it all; and what then?
A63741This device produced the conferences at Poissy, at Montpellier, at Ratisbon, at the Hague, at many places more: and what was the event of these?
A63741WHat the Eunuch said to Philip, when he read the Book of the Prophet Isaiah; Of whom speaketh the Prophet this, of himself, or some other man?

A63741Whether as a Hand, or as a Heart?
A63741Whether as a sign, or as a thing signified?
A63741Whether by inherent worthiness, or adventitious imputation?
A63741Whether by introduction, or by perfection?
A63741Whether by its own innate Vertue, or by the efficacy of the Object?

A46699An Sit?
A46699An actiones indifferentes nihil inter se differant, sed aequè omnes à bono,& malo distent?
A46699And through thy knowledg shall the weake brother perish, for whom Christ died?

A46699But I demand, when we 〈 ◊ 〉 of a body what we mean by it?
A46699But Sir, what 〈 ◊ 〉 you of mortality?
A46699But Sir, 〈 ◊ 〉 think you of Mortality?
A46699But because it may sometimes be rendered appointment, will it therefore follow that it must be so rendred in this place?

A46699But proceed we unto the second part of the question: whether or no originall righteousnesse were 〈 ◊ 〉 unto man in his state of innocency?
A46699But sounds not this very strangely?
A46699But what advantage reap you unto your cause by this?
A46699But why doest thou judge thy brother?

A46699But, what talke we of Papists?
A46699Calvinist''s about oath''s concerning things indifferent have this case: Whether they be obligatory in trifles?
A46699Conscience, I say, not thine own, but of the others: for why is my liberty judged 〈 ◊ 〉 mans conscience?

A46699Et in hoc omnes consentiunt, caeterum de obligatione quid 〈 ◊ 〉?
A46699First then?
A46699First, What is meant by this Gospell of Paul?
A46699First, many exclude from active scandall all things that scandalize per accidens: and then, what will become of those scandals Paul speaks against?
A46699First, whether it were naturall?
A46699First, whether or no originall righteousnesse were naturall unto the first man in his state of innocency?
A46699First, whether, or no it be annexed with a necessary duty, or not?
A46699First, with himselfe; how frequent, and warme are the contests in his own bosome, betwixt his rationall, and sensuall powers?
A46699For first, what is the end of a rule but to regulate and direct?
A46699For if inclination to sinne be a sinne naturally, and derived from our Parents, I demand whether or no had not Christ all naturall 〈 ◊ 〉?
A46699For indifferent dayes, meates, surpsice, 〈 ◊ 〉 not him for whom Christ dyed?
A46699For is Satan so backward in tempting, or is his invention grown so barren, as that our lives and practise must put arguments into his mouth?
A46699For it he hung upon a crosse; and shall it then have a 〈 ◊ 〉 in my heart?
A46699For what hast thou that thou hast not received?
A46699For, whence but from God should come power to deserve?
A46699God will reconcile all the brethren at the last day; and therefore it is folly for any of them to jangle in the meane while?
A46699He cryeth out of 〈 ◊ 〉 perversion, eithe: by grosse negligence, or mistaking And why so I pray?
A46699He is expresse for the duty of thanksgiving it selfe — Giving thanks allwayes,& c. How can that, you will say, be done?
A46699Here before it can be defined, whether this be a regular Syllogisme, or no?
A46699How Paul termeth it his Gospel?
A46699How a God?
A46699How can they be condemned, for refusall of the Gospell, unto whom it was never offered?
A46699How canst thou recompense( saith( b) Jesus the sonne of Sirach) thy Parents the things that they have done for thee?
A46699How do men dread those judges, whose severest doome reacheth only unto( that which they themselves can not avoid) death of the body?
A46699How shall wee recompense our God the things he hath done for us?
A46699How sharply doth James reprehend the wicked rich, merely for their sordid sparing, and hording?
A46699How unsuitable unto this, is the disposition of those by whom offences come?
A46699I demand whether the use of the Crosse amongst the Ancients was decent or undecent?
A46699I would 〈 ◊ 〉 to know, how you like the companion of the Crosse in Tertullian, the holy oile?
A46699I, but have they the blush, the appearance of evill?
A46699If it be not; how came Adam to sinne his first sine?
A46699If it had pleased God to command, or forbid the signe of the Crosse in particular, what snare had it been?
A46699If it was decent, then why was it abrogated?
A46699If it was undecent, then how can you infer therefrom, the perfect decency of the use of the Crosse in Baptism?
A46699If not elsewhere, why here?
A46699If petitions could prevaile with Judges on earth, how would they be even overwhelmed with them?
A46699If you demand why I say that, you dare not say what you said not?
A46699In what sense God will judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according unto the Gospell of Paul?
A46699Inquiry is made concerning its an sit?
A46699It must bee demanded, quanta est minor, is the assumption universal or particular?
A46699Let all things be done 〈 ◊ 〉: when Bishop Morton desired to know whether this matter were not a thing indifferent?
A46699Let the understanding Reader 〈 ◊ 〉, at what?
A46699More freely yet; not only without, but against our deservings; for what are our 〈 ◊ 〉 except such as Augustine speaks of, merita mala?
A46699Nay doth not thine own family remaine uninstructed, and unchatechized, ignorant of the first principles of the Oracles of God?
A46699Once more, Is it natural to be a natural?
A46699Once more, is it naturall to be naturall?
A46699Quia velox, an quia plurimum mendax?
A46699Quid nominis?
A46699Quid rei?
A46699Quid sit?
A46699Quod 〈 ◊ 〉 si& incontinentes dicant se à continentibus scandalizari, continentia revocanda est?
A46699Say you so?
A46699Secondly, How can he cordially serve God, that contemnes and disobeyes his deputy, and ministers?
A46699Secondly, Suppose a coherence of the words with the former, must it needs be that which they obtrude?
A46699Secondly, whether it were supernaturall?
A46699Sed sanguis, quanto aptiùs sanguinem Christi significaret?
A46699Some customes we know there are, which are so highly decent, as that the omission of then necessarily infers indecency: But what are they?
A46699Some telling us that it was a 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, attributed a power thereunto of 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉; What shall we 〈 ◊ 〉?
A46699St John''s tryall of the Spirits?
A46699Suppose I grant this, what then?
A46699The relation unto the first man, Whether it were natural or supernatural to him?
A46699The second, Whether or no we are to be thankfull for afflictions?
A46699The second, whether or no we are to be thankfull for afflictions?
A46699The third and last inquiry is how, and in what sence, God shall judge the secrets of men, according unto Pauls Gospel?
A46699Then came his Disciples and said unto him: knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended after they heard this saying?
A46699Thirdly, what was the subject of originall righteousnesse in which it was seated?
A46699This to deny, or smother, or but sparingly to discourse of, what bewrayes it, but a loathnesse to acknowledg our selves engaged to the Almighty?
A46699This wedding garment is the robes of Christs righteousnesse: and what puts these on but saith?
A46699Thou hast a large portion of temporals; but alas how narrow, and short is the Catalogue of thy good works that thou canst produce?
A46699Tu es qui venturus es?
A46699Was theere such rituall purity under the Law?

A46699What then shall I do, when God 〈 ◊ 〉 up?
A46699What though they be not actually defiled?
A46699When shall we come to the 〈 ◊ 〉 place?

A46699and shall there not be found an answerable degree of morall precisenesse in the 〈 ◊ 〉 of the Gospell?
A46699and so turnes a most wholesome 〈 ◊ 〉, into a most pernicious poyson?
A46699and the magistrate his tribute or contribution?

A46699and what proofes he will bring, for so strange an assertion, we will leave unto the issue?
A46699and what these Churches are?
A46699and when he visiteth, what shall I answer him?
A46699and who not?
A46699and yet it is his will, and pleasure, that these externals of his worship should be laid aside for the performance of outward works of mercy?
A46699are not the words capable of another interpretation?
A46699as when he paid tribute lest he should offend them?
A46699betwixt us then there will be an impassable gulph, and that unto all eternity, and therefore why now is there such a nearnesse betwixt us?
A46699but that he undervallued God''s command, and followed his own judgment, his own invention?
A46699but to licence confusion both in Church and 〈 ◊ 〉?

A46699can we expect to be associated with Saints, and Angels in the Traine of Christ, and in the meane while live like incarnate Divels?
A46699can we hope for the honour of Saints to be attendents unto the Iudge, and abhorre holinesse, that denominates us to be Saints?

A46699how few are there of thine intimates, that have learned any considerable thing from thee?
A46699how poore and meane is the retinue of the most magnificent sheriffe, in comparison of those millions of Angels, that shall waite on Christ?
A46699how will they be confounded to heare all their black jealousies of them pronounced to be groundlesse, and injurious?
A46699if it be, I aske whether shall the Saints in the resurrection be raised up with it or no?
A46699if it be; I ask: whether shall the 〈 ◊ 〉 in the resurrection be raised up with it or no?
A46699if they continue with a scornfull obstinacy to neglect, and reject that great Salvation, which is tendered them in the Gospel?

A46699no more bending unto evill, then unto good?
A46699of what use are our intellectualls?
A46699or hath any man given to him first, that it might be recompensed him againe?
A46699or whether God did not by some acts oblige, and necessitate himselfe unto the enduing of the first man with originall righteousnesse?
A46699or why doest thou set at nought thy brother?

A46699shall they be willingly within sight, sent, and hearing of impiety, except to reprove it?
A46699shall they have our most intimate, and friendliest conversation, that are as yet the professed enemies of Christ, and his Church?
A46699si calix tuus fractus est, viscera hominis distrahentur?
A46699such Ceremoniall strictnesse in heathenish Priests?
A46699that is, are the things changed in their essentials and yet remaine the same?
A46699that is, whether they can be the same, when they are not the same?
A46699that makes that a spurre to excite unto sin, which in it''s naturall tendency is a bridle to restraine therefrom?
A46699that say, who will shew us any good?
A46699then how are they chang''d, and then what hath God done to them?
A46699then they shall for ever associate in the praises of God; and why then shall they not in the interim joyne in all other parts of God''s worship?
A46699then to what purpose hath he placed that glorious lamp of reason in our bosomes?
A46699to aske God pardon for it?
A46699to check such a litigious, and vexatious plantiffe?
A46699to curb such a mighty oppressour?
A46699to give Commands, and expect obedience from their children?
A46699to make any scruple of the committing of it?
A46699to prevent that partiality, and injustice, which is intended by some crafty, and false companions, who are for the nonce packed into the Iury?
A46699to rescue such a poore innocent from oppression, to deliver such a wronged party from injury?
A46699to say, that he did not foresee it, takes away the infinitenesse of his knowledge; if he foresaw it, then I demand whether he could not?
A46699to say, that our Lord forbore the determining of such circumstances, because all else was easie?
A46699to suppresse such a disorder?
A46699unto what wrongs, and injuries would this expose such, as are well affected?
A46699we may say unto a juror; who knoweth whether God hath called thee to serve for such a time, and cause as this?
A46699what Patent hath she to make particular 〈 ◊ 〉 for time and place?
A46699what an unfathomable pravity is there in this, that makes a most equitable disswasive from sin, to be a powerfull incentive unto it?
A46699what are the triumphs, and Consolations of a good Conscience, but a glimpse, and dawning of Heaven- happinesse?
A46699what are your trumpets, in comparison of that shout, the voice of the Ark- Angell, and the trump of God?
A46699what is it, but an unbridled lust of committing fornication with the creature?
A46699what is the service, that thou hast done with them?
A46699what reason have wee to hope then for the fruition of his glory, if we be now regardlesse of the advancement of his glory?
A46699what unfaithfull stewards have the most of men been of that large, and rich talent of time, which God hath trusted them with?

A46699why doe they set at nought one another, seeing they shall all stand upon the same levell before the judgment seat of Christ?
A46699why shall I drive him upon a sin, which I may prevent by a prudent and charitable forbearance of the exercise of my liberty?

A63888A wise man or a good, would not choose it: would any of you die an Atheist that you might live in plenty and power?
A63888Am I a dry tree to the house of Israel?
A63888And can it be a wonder that they whose cause wants reason, should betake themselves to the sword?
A63888And do not we finde all this to be a great truth in our selves?
A63888And how shall the Church be supposed to fail since God hath made no provisions for its restitution?
A63888And how then shall such a person hope that God should pity him?
A63888And if it be inquired, why men should sin again, after they had experience of the little and great deception?
A63888And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shal the ungodly and the sinner appear?
A63888And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
A63888And is not evill come upon all the world for one sin of Adam?
A63888And is not hee as sensible of it and more then wee?
A63888And now if we would know in the Gospel what answers these precedent sins?
A63888And now it will be a vain question to ask, whether or no God can not save a dying man that repents after a vitious life?
A63888And therefore if a common man must not serve at the altar, how shall he abide a wicked man to stand there?
A63888And this was intimated by S. James, Doe not rich men oppresse you, and draw you before the Judgment seat?
A63888And what difference is there, if cases of necessity be pretended in the defect of other ministeries, but that they also may be invaded?
A63888And what hurt is it to thee if a persecution draws thee from the vanities of a former prosperity, and forces thee into the sobrieties of a holy life?
A63888And what is the prosperity of the wicked?
A63888And who can choose but know it?
A63888And who shall pay for this losse?
A63888And why else should it be necessary for us to pray, that we be not lead into temptation?
A63888And yet if men do not go upon these grounds, upon what account do they sin?
A63888Are not all the men and the women of the world provided for, and fed and clothed till they die?
A63888Are not his subjects fields bedewed with the same showers that water his gardens of pleasure?
A63888Are not most men of the world made miserable at a lesse price then a thousand pound a year?
A63888Are not there a thousand dangers, and ten thousand difficulties, and innumerable possibilities of a misadventure?
A63888Are there not very many, who know not the particular duties of meeknesse, and never consider concerning Longsuffering?
A63888Are we not often too imperious against our servants?
A63888Are your communions more frequent?
A63888Bion seeing a Prince weep and tearing his hair for sorrow, asked if baldnesse would cure his grief?
A63888But amongst a thousand how many can explicate and unfold for his own practise the ten Commandments; And how many sorts of sins are there forbidden?
A63888But doe not many of us inquire after a vow?
A63888But does this cure the intemperance of their affections?
A63888But here it is usually inquired whether it be lawful to tell a lie, or dissemble to save a good mans life, or to do him a great benefit?
A63888But how if the portion be bad?
A63888But if it be worth it, and all of it be necessary, why should we not labour in order to this great end?
A63888But if we be not sorrowfull in the first period, how shall we be so, or know it in the second period?
A63888But in order to the following discourse and its method, we are first to consider whether this be, or indeed can be a commandement, or what is it?
A63888But is it not a strange cozenage, that our hearts shall be the main wheel in the engine, and shall set all the rest on working?
A63888But is not every man an unequal judge in his own case?
A63888But is not he a Tyrant, and an usurper, an oppressor, and an extortioner, if he will force thee to give thy soul for him?
A63888But let us goe one step further: How many of us love our enemies?
A63888But now besides all the premises, we have another account to make concerning the prosperity of the wicked: For if judgment first begin at us?
A63888But shall such persons despair of salvation?
A63888But then if the punishment increases the sin, by what instrument can the punishment be removed?
A63888But then is the soul the onely safe and the onely trifling thing about us?
A63888But then what would become of us, if God should be as angry at our sin as at Zedekiahs, or King Davids?
A63888But there are some friends that weep at parting; and is not thy weeping a forrow of affection?
A63888But to us what shall be the 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉?
A63888But what advantage shall we receive by a spiritual Guide?
A63888But what then?
A63888But which of all his relatives shall dare to tell him of his indiscretion, of his rage and of his folly?
A63888But who shall guide the vessel when a stormy passion or a violent imagination transports the man?
A63888But why do I talk of great things in this Question of the exchange of the soul for the world?
A63888But why may not we be saved as well as the thief upon the crosse?
A63888But will not trusting in the merits of Jesus Christ save such a man?
A63888Can a dying man to any real effect resolve to be chast?
A63888Can an indifferent prayer quench the flatnes of hell, or rescue us from an eternall sorrow?
A63888Can not a man quench his thirst as well out of an Urn or Chalice, as out of a whole River?
A63888Can such purposes prevail against a long impiety rather then against a young and a newly begun state of sin?
A63888Can the greatest Prince inclose the Sun, and set one little star in his cabinet for his own use?
A63888Can we expect that our sinnes should be wa ● hed by a lazie prayer?
A63888Can your master free you from a fever, when you have drunk your self into it?
A63888Despisest thou the riches of his goodnesse, and forbearance, and long- suffering, not knowing that the goodnesse of God leadeth thee to repentance?
A63888Despisest thou the riches of his goodnesse, and forbearance, and long- suffering, not knowing that the goodnesse of God leadeth thee to repentance?
A63888Did ever any joynt of our body knit, or our heart ever keep one true minute of a pulse without God?
A63888Did he pay his blood for you, to save you from death?
A63888Did not God punish Zedekiah with suffering his eyes to be put out in the house of bondage?
A63888Did not God strike Corah and his company with fire from Heaven?
A63888Did the man make you what you are?
A63888Did the merchant see the pearls and the wealth he designs to get in the trade of 20 years?
A63888Did the world create us?
A63888Did we never call good evill, or evill good?
A63888Did we never say to others, thy cause is right, when nothing made it right, but favour and money, a false advocate or a covetous Judge?
A63888Didst thou pray with the same affection and labour as thou didst purchase thy estate?
A63888Do not all the world sight for liberty, and at no terms will lay down armes till at least they be cousened with the image and colour of it?
A63888Do not many men go from sin to sin even in their repentance?
A63888Do we not entertain and seed our own anger with vile and basest language?
A63888Do you love God more dutifully and your neighbour with a greater charity?
A63888Doe not many men talke themselves into anger, skrewing up themselves with dialogues and fancy, till they forget the company and themselves?
A63888Doe not the laws of all wise Nations marke the drunkard for a foole, with the meanest and most scornfull punishment?
A63888Doe the Sun or the stars preserve us alive?
A63888Doe we not live upon Gods provision, and yet stand or work at the command of lust, or avarice, humane regards and little interests of the world?
A63888Doe wee not professe our selves his servants, and yet serve the Devill?
A63888Does he keep you from sicknesse?
A63888Does not God plant remedies there where the diseases are most popular, and every Countrey is best provided against its own evils?
A63888Does not God send his angels to keep thee in all thy wayes?
A63888Does not he study all the wayes to ruine us?
A63888Does not the Devill often tempt men to despair, and by that torment put bars and locks upon them, that they may never return to God?
A63888First, then suppose a man gets all the world, what is it that he gets?
A63888For besides that himself would never admonish his friend when he sins,( and if he would, why should not himself be glad of the same charity?)
A63888For by what means should the Church be renewed and Christianity restored?
A63888For can all men that give up their names in baptisme, be enjoyned to be wise and prudent?
A63888For consider; can it be imagined that any one of us should escape better then David did?
A63888For if God be so gracious to the wicked; how much more is he to the godly?
A63888For if he be subject to another, how can he be Lord of the whole world?
A63888For if he did not then, at the first, dictate words( as we know not whether he did or no) why shall he be suppos''d to do so now?
A63888For if they doe not believe these things, where is their Faith?
A63888For impunity was never a good argument to make men to obey laws, quotusquisque reperitur qui impunitate proposita abstinere possit injurijs?
A63888For what Christian is so uninstructed but that he knows Adultery is a sin?
A63888For what can all the world minister to a sick person?
A63888For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
A63888For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
A63888For what is the hope of the hypocrite?
A63888For what necessity can a man have to curse him whom he cals enemy?
A63888For what should hinder him?
A63888For who can resist him who is Almighty?
A63888For who pityeth the tears of a base man who hath treacherously murthered his friend?
A63888For who shall make him recompence that lost his life in a Duel, fought about a draught of wine, or a cheaper woman?
A63888For why is Fasting prescribed together with prayer?
A63888God was fain to multiply miracles to make Christ capable of being a man of sorrows; and shall we think he will work miracles to make us delicate?
A63888Had not David suffered more if he had suffered lesse, and had he not been miserable unlesse he had been afflicted?
A63888Hadst thou never any dangerous fall in thy intemperance?
A63888Hath God made any of you all chapfallen?
A63888Have not many persons been struck suddenly in the very act of sin, and some been seised upon by the Devill and carryed away alive?
A63888Have thy alms been more then thy oppressions, and according to thy power?
A63888Heaven and earth shall see all the follies and basenesse of thy life; and doest thou laugh?
A63888How earnestly have we fasted, if our Prince be sick or afflicted?
A63888How few men are Princes, and of those that are not born so, how seldom instances are found in story, of persons that by their industry became so?
A63888How few of us are troubled when he sees his brother wicked, or dishonorably vicious?
A63888How many Kings have groaned under the burden of their crowns, and have sunk down and died?
A63888How many days have we set apart for the publick relief and interests of the Kingdome?
A63888How many men are there in the world, that against every Communion renew their vowes of holy living?
A63888How many persons are there in the world, that say they are sure of their salvation, and yet they dare not die?
A63888How much of our time was spent in that?
A63888How shall we be pardoned and eased, when our remedies are converted into causes of the sicknesse, and our antidotes are poison?
A63888How shalt thou look upon him that fainted and dyed for love of thee, and thou didst scorn his miraculous mercies?
A63888How then shall I know by some infallible token, that I am a true Penitent?
A63888How then?
A63888If Christ suffered so many things onely that he might give us glory, shall it be strange that we shall suffer who are to receive this glory?
A63888If God be thus kinde when he is Angry, what is he when he feasts us with caresses of his more tender Kindnesse?
A63888If a Lay person shall baptize, whether or no shall the person baptized receive benefit, or will any more but the outward act be done?
A63888If a holy life be not necessary to be liv''d, why shall it be necessary to resolve to live it?
A63888If now at last it be inquir''d whether every man is bound to reprove every man, if he sins, and if he converse with him?
A63888If of every idle word we must give account, what shall we doe for those malicious words that dishonor God, or doe despite to our Brother?
A63888If they on earth be miserable many times for their fathers sins, how great a state of misery is that in hell which they suffer for their own?
A63888Is it not a fearfull consideration that a man should rather choose eternally to perish, then to say his prayers heartily, and affectionately?
A63888Is it not a great thing that God hath made such strange provisions for our health?
A63888Is it not a sad thing that the Jew should say, the Christians worship images?
A63888Is it not plain, that not the Vertue, but its Reputation is the thing that is pursued?
A63888Is lust so soon overcome, that the very naming it can master it?
A63888Is not the affliction of poverty better then the prosperity of a great and tempting fortune?
A63888Is not the least sin a greater evil then the greatest of sufferings?
A63888Is not this laid up in store with me, and sealed up among my treasures?
A63888Is not unthankfulnesse to God a greater basenesse and unworthinesse then unthanfulnesse to our Patron?
A63888Is our ambition changed into vertuous and noble thoughts?
A63888Is our heart so secret to our selves?
A63888Is the Devill so slight and easie an enemy, that he will fly away from us at the first word, spoken without power, and without vehemence?
A63888Is the change reasonable?
A63888Is there any thing more yet?
A63888Is there no comfort after all this?
A63888It is good that we will not seek out opportunities to sin; but are not we too apprehensive of it, when it is presented?
A63888Know ye not,( saith, S. Paul) that ye shall judge Angels?
A63888Let him see whether a drunken meeting will cure a fever, or make him wise?
A63888Let him tell me, if spending great summes of money upon his lusts will make him sleep soundly, or be rich?
A63888Lo this is the goodly change you have made, you had your good things in your life time, and how like you the portion that is reserved to you for ever?
A63888Most men choose the sin, if it be once disputable whether it be a sin or no?
A63888Must a man repent a yeer, or two, or seven yeers, or ten, or twenty before his death?
A63888Neither do I say that all the souls do dye, for that indeed would be to the wicked a gain unlooked for: What then?
A63888Next I am to consider why this is so, and why it is justly so?
A63888No?
A63888Not by Scripture?
A63888Now I ask, does he wish so upon reason, or without reason?
A63888Now if we be sorrowfull in the first stage, how happens it that we know it not?
A63888Of the first St. Paul gives no account, but by way of upbraiding asks, what they had?
A63888On the one side there was scandalum crucis, on the other patientia sanctorum, and what was the event?
A63888One of the great strengths, shall I call it?
A63888Or did lust ever do us any good: Did Sathan ever suffer one stripe for our advantage?
A63888Or do we get understanding from the Angels?
A63888Or the exercise of long suffering?
A63888Our tongues are our owne, we are they that ought to speak, who is Lord over us?
A63888Quae mens est hodie, cur eadem non puero fuit?
A63888Quanto satius est mentem potius eluere quae malis cupiditatibus sordidatur,& uno virtutis ac fidei lavacro universa vitia depellere?
A63888Quid enim majus est, si de jure quaerimus, quàm posse à summis imperiis& summis potestatibus comitia tollere?
A63888Quid faciet agnus, cumtremit aries?
A63888Quid faciet virgula deserti, ubi concutretur cedrus Paradisi?
A63888Quid magnificentius quàm posse decernere ut magistratu se abdicent consules?
A63888Quid non audebis perfida lingua loqui?
A63888Quid, quod& summum Pontificem in unis nuptiis statuit?
A63888Quis cur am neget esse te Deorunt propter quem fuit innocens ruina?
A63888Remember how often we have tempted our Brother, or a silly woman to sin and death?
A63888Secondly we will consider what is likely to be obtained really, and indeed of the world, and what are really the miseries of a lost soul?
A63888Shall he rely upon Princes?
A63888Shall we suppose a man to pray against his sin?
A63888Si coelum fugiat, ubi manebit terra?
A63888Si quis paterni vitij nascitur haeres, nascitur& poenae?
A63888Si sic irascitur, quomodo convivatur?
A63888Silver and gold have I none, and therefore I can give you none: But I wish you well; How will that appear?
A63888Sin thrust me from heaven to hell, and do you think on earth to have security?
A63888Surely then his present condition in respect of his past sin hath some very great evil in it, why else should he be so much troubled?
A63888Tell the joynts of thy body, dost thou want a finger?
A63888That they are to consider the conditions which on one side God requires of us, and on the other side, whether they have done accordingly?
A63888The effect of this consideration is this: That if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the wicked and the sinner appear?
A63888The grace of God secur''d the young Gentleman, and the Spirit rode in triumph; but what can flesh do in such a day of danger?
A63888The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperatly wicked; who can know it?
A63888The heart is deceitfull above all things, and desperately wicked; who can know it?
A63888Therefore wee shall consider what are those conditions which are required in every person that prays, the want of which makes the prayer to be a sin?
A63888This is not forbidden, but does this become you?
A63888To what end?
A63888Vis quantum mali facias videre?
A63888Was not Solomon glorious in all things but when he bowed to Pharaoh''s daughter, and then to Devils?
A63888Well, what is given to them?
A63888Well?
A63888Well?
A63888Were they not made unwillingly, weakly, and wandringly, and abated with sins in the greatest part of thy life?
A63888Were thy prayers made in feare and holinesse, with passion and desire?
A63888What almes have we given for our brothers conversion?
A63888What and if I weep for my sins?
A63888What are its consequents by its demerit, and the infliction of the superadded wrath of God, which it hath deserved?
A63888What are the conditions of a good mans prayer, the absence of which makes that even his prayer returns empty?

A71177AND after this, I would fain know, what benefit and advantages the Church of England in her united capacity receives by this new device?
A71177AND here I consider that the true state of the Question is only this, Whether it is better to pray to God with Consideration, or without?
A71177Add to this, how can Species, that is, accidents be broken, but when a substance is broken?
A71177Add to this, how can a bad quality, morally bad, be directly and regularly transmitted by an action morally good?
A71177All these, I say, clearly make not distinct orders, and why are not all of them of the same consideration?
A71177An dubitat solitus totum con ● ● are Tonantem, Radet inaurati femur Herculis,& faciem ipsam Neptuni, qui bracteolam de Castore ducet?
A71177An istam quam propter nos suscepit servi formae schemate circumamictus?
A71177An non licebat ipsi[ Petro] eligere?
A71177And Qui baptizatur à mortuo, quid proficit lavatio ejus?
A71177And a little after he expostulates the Article, Non licebit Deo in suo Organo per manus sanctas sublimitatem modulari spiritalem?
A71177And a little after, 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉,& c. What is the Bishop, but he that hath all authority and rule?
A71177And after this, what can be supposed wanting in order to Salvation?
A71177And again, How much more operative is the word of Christ that the things be what they were, and yet be changed into another?
A71177And again, Quid enim aliud est Episcopus quàm is qui omni Principatu,& potestate superior est?
A71177And again, Thou sayest what shall I do?
A71177And again, vestrae plebi unde Spiritus, quam non consignat unctus Sacerdos?
A71177And because they neither did nor could do that, may it therefore be concluded, that they made no Images of their Gods?
A71177And dare any man tax that proceeding of remissness, and indifferency in Religion?
A71177And do Saints, do Canoniz''d persons use to go to Purgatory?
A71177And from hence hath risen a Question, Whether is to be received, the former or the later Councils, in case they contradict each other?
A71177And here we shall be oppressed with a cloud of Witnesses: For what more plain then the Commission given to Peter?
A71177And how can it be, that the father who contributes nothing to her production, should contribute to her pollution?
A71177And how was that?
A71177And if God will not be angry at men for being invincibly deceived, why should men be angry one at another?
A71177And if Patterns, the nearer we draw to our example, are not the imitations and representments the better?
A71177And if his Parents sinn''d, how could he bear their sin?
A71177And if she have, whether she have not as much as any single person?
A71177And if so, whether also it must be in publick Prayer, and will it not suffice that it be in private?
A71177And if this were not his onely way, why do men dispute and urge Arguments?
A71177And if thou say in thine heart, Wherefore came these things upon me?
A71177And in the 29 Homily upon the same Epistle, he argues thus: What therefore, tell me, are all dead in Adam by the death of sin?
A71177And in the close of his discourse, Sic certè à Domino ad B. Petrum dicitur, Petre amas me?
A71177And indeed who can do a sin every day, and think it great and highly damnable?
A71177And is it unjust to condemn one man to Hell for all the sin of a thousand of his Ancestors actually done by them?
A71177And it is remarkable what Bellarmine answers to the Question, with what kind of worship images may be ador''d?
A71177And must we do so too?
A71177And now after all this, what authority is equal to this Legislative of the Bishops?
A71177And now what help is there for us in the midst of these uncertainties?
A71177And now why do you reprove that in us which you do in your selves?
A71177And put case all four had past through the fire, and died in the flames, what would that have proved?
A71177And shall it be accounted just to damn all the world for one sin of one man?
A71177And the case is clear in the Bishop''s Question to Cyprian: for why shall not Infants be baptized just upon the eighth days as well as circumcised?
A71177And then it would be considered whether we are fallen?
A71177And then the question will not be, whether our senses can be deceived or no?
A71177And then where is his Providence and Government?
A71177And therefore he was no Bishop?
A71177And therefore to the Question, What shall be done if a Bishop may not be had?
A71177And therefore when we are charged with sin, it is worthy of inquiry, whence it is that we are sinners?
A71177And to the same sence those words of our Blessed Saviour to the Pharisees asking who sinn''d, this man or his Parents?
A71177And upon this account Abraham was confident with God; Wilt thou slay the righteous with the wicked?
A71177And were not his words sufficiently expressive of his sence?
A71177And what are those things?
A71177And what are we the nearer for a Decree, if any Sophister shall think his elusion enough to contest against the Authority of a Council?
A71177And what benefit comes to them by Baptism?
A71177And what can more plainly give his sence and meaning in this Article?
A71177And what remedy was there for that?
A71177And what say you to me?
A71177And what then if we took the Samplers themselves?
A71177And what then in those thousands that are intricate?
A71177And what then?
A71177And what will it profit him if a Father gives a great Estate to his Son, if he does not take care to provide a Tutor for him?
A71177And what''s that?
A71177And who can ascertain us that she hath not entertained some which are no Traditions, as well as lost thousands that are?
A71177And who would not deride this way of arguing?
A71177And why call ye me Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
A71177And why can not God as well doe his mercies to Infants now immediately, as he did before the institution either of Circumcision or Baptism?
A71177And why can they not be suffered to enjoy their share of peace, which hath returned in the hands of His Sacred Majesty at his blessed Restauration?
A71177And why should not a righteous man as easily and as quickly fall from grace, and lose his habits, as Adam did?
A71177And yet there is some more modesty, or wariness, or necessity( what shall I call it?)
A71177Are not the grounds equal from an indeleble character in one as in the other?
A71177Are there any acts precedent, concomitant or consequent to this pretended habit?
A71177Are they by this habit so much as disposed to an actual belief without a new Master?
A71177Are we not made all one with Christ, and he with us?
A71177As if he had said, I speak to You, for to whom else should I speak and give caution for the looking to the house in the Masters absence?
A71177As well this as the other; for if Deaconship do not exclude Episcopacy, why shall his being an Evangelist exclude it?
A71177At this rate all men should have passed through the fire: for who can escape when S. Cyprian and S. Austin can not?
A71177Athenagoras in a high defiance of the infamy asks, Do you think we are murtherers?
A71177Aut quam imaginem ponetis ei, qui spiritus est,& in omnibus est,& ubique discurrit,& terram quasi pugillo continet?
A71177BUT abstracting from the reason, let us consider who keeps the precept best, He that deliberates, or he that considers not when he speaks?
A71177BUT ask again, what benefit can the publick receive by this form, or this no form?
A71177BUT is it not also heresie?
A71177BUT then did not this imployment, when the occasions were great and extraordinary, force the Bishops to a temporary absence?
A71177BUT why may not all this be done in an instant by the grace of God?
A71177BUT yet if such compliance with fancies and affections were necessary, what are we the nearer if every Minister were permitted to pray his own forms?
A71177BVT what am I, O God, sinful dust and ashes, a miserable and undone man, that I should plead with the great Judge of all the World?
A71177Besides this,( I say) If Christs body be not invested with these accidents, how do they represent it, or to what purpose do they remain?
A71177But 2. why did our blessed Lord so severely threaten those that should teach others to break any of these severe Commandments by false interpretation?
A71177But I demand, are the words more contradictory if they be both drawn to a spiritual sence, than if they be both drawn to a natural?
A71177But I demand, have not the children of believing parents a title to the Promises of the Gospel?
A71177But I would fain know, why is not any vitious habit as bad or worse then a false Opinion?
A71177But after all this, was not Saint Monica a Saint?
A71177But again can an accidental form kill a man?
A71177But because all sin is a blot to a mans soul, and a foul stain to his reputation; we demand, In what does this stain consist?
A71177But by whom?
A71177But does it follow that therefore he does not say so at all of these, because he says it of the others too?
A71177But first, where is there such a distinction set down in Scripture, or in the prime Antiquity, or in any moral Philosopher?
A71177But for what end, to what purpose do they detain the water, when they can not keep back the Spirit?
A71177But for what use?
A71177But hath not God promised pardon to him that is contrite?
A71177But here what shall we have to determine it?
A71177But how can any thing be divided from it self wholly?
A71177But how can it be that the faults of good men should be covered, when all things are naked to the eyes of God?
A71177But how can this expound the other words?
A71177But how did they when all that was gone?
A71177But how happens it then that even the regenerate sins often, and the flesh prevails upon the ruine, or the declensions of the Spirit?
A71177But how if a Bishop be not to be had, or not ready?
A71177But how if he does not?
A71177But how if he escapes, was he obliged for all that?
A71177But how if the Bishop himself be a heretick, or schismatick?
A71177But how if they come on him by Divine imposition, or accident?
A71177But how know you that God will not forgive him?
A71177But how shall any man know whether he have perform''d his repentance as he ought?
A71177But how then did they to baptize their Children?
A71177But how then shall he keep ordinations when he hath never a Presbyter to assist him?
A71177But how then when not only particular Churches but single persons are all the proof we have for a Tradition?
A71177But if God took off all that was due, how could God exact it of others, it being wholly pardon''d?
A71177But if Original sin be not a sin properly, why are children baptized?
A71177But if a man sin against the Lord who shall intreat for him?
A71177But if contrition be taken in a sence comprehending more than it self, then I demand how much shall it involve?
A71177But if he be ask''d, whether or no Christ appointed it to be done as he did, to be given as he gave it?
A71177But if he be not sure that sin reigns, then can he not hope that the Spirit does rule?
A71177But if in this sight he b ● overcome, he is not to ask, Whether that ill day, and that deadly blow, can consist with the state of life?
A71177But if it be asked why the Bishop of Rome calls himself Universal Bishop?
A71177But if it be asked, what if this grace had not come?
A71177But if it be not true, what means Saint Paul, by saying, The spirits of the Prophets must be subject to the Prophets?
A71177But if she was not of that opinion then, and Irenaeus was, where was his belief of that Churche''s Infallibility?
A71177But if so, then why may not the King as well make Clergy- Judges, as Lay- Delegates?
A71177But if the Church before their time had expounded it against their sence, and they not submit to it, how do you reckon them Catholicks, and not me?
A71177But if the natural body be eaten naturally, then what hinders it from affections and transmutations natural?
A71177But if they had no more power after Titus than they had under him, how then could they succeed him?
A71177But if this was sufficient to bring men to heaven then, why not now?
A71177But if to repent every day be not too much, who can be sure that if he puts it off one day it shall be sufficient?
A71177But if we should allow the Topick to be good, yet how will it be verified?
A71177But if you still ask where it was before Luther?
A71177But if you yet enquire further, whether Fancy may be an ingredient in your choice?
A71177But is he not displeas''d if we do not?
A71177But is there no mercy to be shewed to them unless they be in Purgatory?
A71177But must we have Lord Bishops too?
A71177But now that all the world hath been Christians, if we should sin in keeping company with vitious Christians, must we not also go out of this world?
A71177But now the Question is not, whether it be the better way, but whether it be necessary, and will not the lesser way suffice?
A71177But of what can they now be hindered?
A71177But secondly, This Objection can press nothing at all; for why was Christ baptized, who knew no sin?
A71177But shall we then condemn those few of the Reformed Churches, whose ordinations always have been without Bishops?
A71177But suppose a while Titus had been an Evangelist, I would fain know who succeeded him?
A71177But suppose it did mean so, what would be effected or perswaded by it more then by the other?
A71177But that another should be made a sinner by his disobedience, what agreement or consequent I beseech you can it have?
A71177But then are all ordinations invalid which are done by meer Presbyters without a Bishop?
A71177But then if it be asked what makes them unworthy, if it be not the want of Original righteousness?
A71177But then if we ask what conversion it is?
A71177But then they may with license?
A71177But then what equity is it that any innocents or little children should?
A71177But then why are they called Acephali?
A71177But then, if it be enquired what evil we thence received?
A71177But then, if this should be as impossible as ever, why is it a- new imposed?
A71177But there were none such in the Primitive Church?
A71177But though it be but of five foot long, yet it may be placed twice or thrice in a space of five foot long, and what then?
A71177But upon this account who can be justified?
A71177But was this all the inconvenience of the want of Bishops?
A71177But what is to be done?
A71177But what need I any more instances?
A71177But what need such Suffragans, such coadjutors to the managing of a Parish?
A71177But what of Scotus?
A71177But what shall the despiser of God do?
A71177But what then might they have done?
A71177But what then?
A71177But what?
A71177But whether is the Popes confirmation after the Decree or before?
A71177But who sees not the extreme folly of this evasion?
A71177But who then must elect them?
A71177But who told them so?
A71177But why does my soul run thither, with all its loads of sin and shame upon it?
A71177But why not Brethren, that is, all the Deacons, and Evangelists, and Helpers in Government, and Ministers of the Churches?
A71177But why should this be abstracted from all the whole Oeconomy of God, from all his other dispensations?
A71177But why so?
A71177But why then do I bid them hope, if their case be desperate?
A71177But why therefore Lay- Elders?
A71177But why thus far and no farther?
A71177But why upon this reprehension, if not for fear of being punished?
A71177But why were they called Acephali?
A71177But will not necessity excuse them who could not have orders from Orthodox Bishops?
A71177But you will say, how came Cochlaeus by them?
A71177But, how did they for the holy Sacrament, for that could not be consecrated without a Priest, and he not ordained without a Bishop?
A71177By Baptism, before or after?
A71177By what Law?
A71177CAN the Ethiopian change his skin, or the Leopard his spots?
A71177Calvin was perpetual President, and Beza, till Danaeus came to Geneva, even for many years together?
A71177Can God be in two places that can not be in one?
A71177Can an Infant sent into a Mahumetan province be more confident for Christianity when he comes to be a man, then if he had not been baptized?
A71177Can any good thing come out of Galilee?
A71177Can he be determin''d and number''d by places, that sills all places by his presence?
A71177Can not God in any sence make this proposition true; This bread is the body of Christ, or this is bread and Christs body too?
A71177Can not he infuse into us the habits of all the g ● aces Evangelical?
A71177Can there possibly be two Categorematical, that is, positive substantial infinites?
A71177Can therefore the Church use this form of absolution?
A71177Can they in that Sacrament eat the flesh of Christ and drink his bloud?
A71177Castis cum pueris ignara puella mariti Disceret unde preces, vatem ni Musa dedisset?
A71177Cathedra tibi quid fecit Ecclesiae, in quâ Petrus sedit,& in quâ hodiè Anastasius sedet?
A71177Could we prevent the sin of Adam?
A71177Could we, if we had been ask''d after we were born a month, have given our negative?
A71177Could you desire to be thought good, and yet have delighted in such cruelty?
A71177Could you have been delighted in their horrid shrieks and out- cries, or have taken pleasure in their unavoidable and their intolerable calamity?
A71177Cur meam senectam hujus sollicito amentiâ Pro hujus ego ut peccatis supplicium sufferam?
A71177Dare any man with his gift of Prayer pretend, that he can ex tempore, or by study, make better?
A71177Deinde qui Vnum habuerit, numquid debet illi ipse unus Presbyter auferri?
A71177Deinde qui unum[ Presbyterum] habuerit, numquid debet illi ipse unus Presbyter auferri?
A71177Did all the Orthodox from Abel to that day go to Purgatory?
A71177Did no man admonish you?
A71177Did none foretel the event?
A71177Did not God know that we could not in that case dissent?
A71177Did not the Ancient Church do otherwise than these men do?
A71177Did that desire lead him captive to fornication?
A71177Did the Apostles threaten nothing?
A71177Did the Gospels say nothing?
A71177Did the Priest intreat nothing of you?
A71177Did the Primitive Councils, and Fathers do well in condemning the ordinations made by meer Presbyters?
A71177Do I say he shall be damned?
A71177Do I say he shall be pardon''d?
A71177Do not we receive his Body and his Blood?
A71177Do not you adore that which Rats and Mice eat, which can grow mouldy, and sowre, which you keep under locks and bars, for fear your God be stoln?
A71177Do they do what Christ did?
A71177Do they teach what Christ taught?
A71177Does he attend his motions?
A71177Does he live by the laws of the Spirit?
A71177Does he love his Brother?
A71177Does he obey his commands?
A71177Does he therefore think well?
A71177Does it not appoint every thing but the words?
A71177Does it therefore follow that the Holy Ghost is not given in Confirmation?
A71177Does not every call, and every expectation, and every message, when it is rejected, provoke Gods anger and exasperate him?
A71177Does not he in the day of vengeance smite more sorely, by how much with the more patience he hath waited?
A71177Does the Priest absolve him whom God condemns?
A71177Dost thou who art rich and opulent suppose that you celebrate the Lords Supper,( or sacrifice) who regardest not the poor mans basket?
A71177Doth not their excellency which is in them go away?
A71177EIGHTHLY, And now after all this strife, what harm is there in restraining the spirit in the present sence?
A71177Et iterum: Miser ego homo, quis me liberabit de corpore mortis hujus?
A71177Et quid negotii esset Episcopo ut Presbyterum non objurgaret, si super Presbyterum non haberet potestatem?
A71177Exigis ubi scriptum est?
A71177FOR, Why are not the Ministers to be left as well to their liberty in making their Prayers as their Sermons?
A71177FOURTHLY, Does not the Directory that thing which is here called restraining of the Spirit?
A71177For 1. who should add this story to this Epistle?
A71177For I demand: Can any man say and justifie that the Apostles did deny Communion to any man that believed the Apostles Creed, and lived a good life?
A71177For being a fool, and useless?
A71177For did they that lived( to instance) in Saint Austin''s time be ● ieve all that he wrote?
A71177For hast thou remained without sin?
A71177For how can a man be sorrowful for not being sorrowful?
A71177For how can the breaking of Species or accidents infer the breaking of Christs body, unless the accidents be Christs body, or inseparable from it?
A71177For how can the lapsed man do penance?
A71177For how could it be Christs flesh Sacramentally, if he had no flesh really?
A71177For how shall any man reckon two?
A71177For how will it appear that these promises and Commissions did relate to him as a particular Bishop, and not as a publick Apostle?
A71177For if Concupiscence be a sin, and yet remains after Baptism, then what good does Baptism effect?
A71177For if God hath other ways of bringing them to Heaven who yet can not believe, if they can go to Heaven without Faith, why not to the Font?
A71177For if a Bishop can have but one Parish, why may not every Parish have a Bishop?
A71177For if it be such a work that can not possibly be done on a death- bed, how then can dying persons be called upon to repent?
A71177For if these men are resolved they will call nothing an order but what is a power in order to the consecration of the Eucharist, who can help it?
A71177For if they could not deserve to perish without a fault of their own, how could they deserve to have such a fault put upon them?
A71177For is an Opinion ever the more true or false for being persecuted?
A71177For is it a sin if it continues, and no sin if it lasts but for a week?
A71177For is it a sin in Episcopacy to do so, and not in the Presbytery?
A71177For is not Christ given us in the Sacrament of the Lord''s Supper?
A71177For it is granted on all sides: but whether this conversion be Sacramental and figurative?
A71177For let them say; is it not an attribute of God to be unlimited and to be undefined by places?
A71177For now thou numbrest my steps: Dost thou not watch over my sin?
A71177For that I may use the words of Faventinus; What is the formal term of this action of Transubstantiation, or conversion?
A71177For the case is this: If you ask when every man is bound to repent?
A71177For the question here that is only of concernment, is not to what end this power is reserved to the Bishop, but by whom it was reserved?
A71177For though I can say, If this thing be done in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry?
A71177For to every such curious person, this only is to be said, Do you believe the promises?
A71177For to the Jews enquiring, What shall we do to work the works of God?
A71177For to the Question, Quaenam tandem est poenitentia perfecta?
A71177For to what purpose is it that you are cur''d of prodigality, and then die by covetousness?
A71177For what can the dying man fear but death eternal?
A71177For what else should I chuse?
A71177For what is the Divine authority that he mentions?
A71177For what is thy sin to Gods mercy?
A71177For what power had they of Jurisdiction?
A71177For what profit is it to speak with a tongue, when he that hears is not profited?
A71177For what sence can there be in the first licet else?
A71177For what worthiness can there be in any man to receive the first grace?
A71177For where will they reckon the beginning of Predestination?
A71177For whether( to instance in this place) shall Presbyter limit Episcopus, or Episcopus extend Presbyter?
A71177For why do you baptize them?
A71177For why should not Divines doe in the Question of reconfirmation as in that of rebaptization?
A71177For why should they obey?
A71177For why should we be in love with that evil, against which they so carefully arm''d their Churches, by the provision and defence of Laws?
A71177From Antiquity?
A71177From Scripture?
A71177From hence arises this great noise; and the fountain being confessedly corrupt, what wholsome thing can be expected thence?
A71177From whence then?
A71177God can do all things, but, are they undone when they are done?
A71177God can new create the body, and change it into a Spirit; But can a body, remaining a body, be at the same time a Spirit?
A71177God is the supreme Judge, and though we may minister to his judgment, yet we can not contradict it; or can the Priest condemn him whom God absolves?
A71177HERE therefore we will joyn issue, whether the gifts and helps of the Spirit be immediate infusions of the faculties and powers and perfect abilities?
A71177Had Christ authority?
A71177Had he been a Heretick or no Heretick, the more or less, for the confidence of these zealous Ideots?
A71177Had not this been a certain, clear, and proportionable comfort to their complaint, and present necessity, if any such thing were intended?
A71177Had the children of Israel leave to picture God in the form of a man walking in Paradise?
A71177Hath he no earnest desires to serve God?
A71177He hath an Empire; but hath he also a Bishoprick?
A71177He is near that justifieth me, who will contend with me?
A71177He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall not he with him also freely give us all things?
A71177He that too strictly inquires of an action whether it be necessary or no, would do well to ask also whether it be good?
A71177He was answered, What wouldest thou do if thou wert sure?
A71177Hence is that saying of Hugo de S. Victore; What does it profit that thou art raised up by Baptism, if thou art not able to stand by Confirmation?
A71177Here therefore it is to be inquired, Whether the Commandments of Jesus Christ be as impossible to be kept as the Law of Moses?
A71177Higher yet are the words of Paulinus Bishop of Nola, to Faustus of Rhegium, inquiring what is to be done to death- bed penitents?
A71177His words are these,[ If it be inquir''d what kind of conversion it is, whether it be formal or substantial, or of another kind?
A71177Hostis Herodes impie Christum venire quid times?
A71177How and if these Presbyters, which came from Ephesus and the other parts of Asia, were made Bishops at Miletus?
A71177How can Men be distinguished from Beasts: or the Vertuous from the vicious?
A71177How can he know that two glasses of wine are not one?
A71177How can he repent, who can not do works of satisfaction or amendment of life?
A71177How can his form comply with the great variety of affections which are amongst his Auditors, any more than the publick forms described by Authority?
A71177How can that be?
A71177How can ye believe, who receive honour one of another?
A71177How conducted?
A71177How did he come to bless us in turning every one of us from our iniquity?
A71177How do you prove it since there are so many impossibilities in it naturally and ordinarily?
A71177How if the Bishop have but one Priest, must his Bishop part with him to supply the necessity of the Neighbour widow Church?
A71177How is it that all men in the world are sinners, and that in many things we offend all?
A71177How much less on them that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, which are crushed before the moth?

A71177How then was Noah a just man in his generation?
A71177How was Abraham and Job?
A71177How will their Superiority be reconciled to the place, though it be but temporary?
A71177How?
A71177I am the Lord God that brought thee out of the land of Egypt: and does Job serve God for nought?
A71177I answer, That such a man should do well to ask his Physician whether it be possible for him to escape that sickness?
A71177I demand to what[ 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, Hic, This] does refer?
A71177I end this with the saying of S. Hierome, Exigis ubi scriptum sit?
A71177I grant it, but what then?
A71177I have seen thine adulteries, and thy neighings, the lewdness of thy whoredoms, and thine abominations, Wo unto thee, wilt thou not be made clean?
A71177I mean as to this particular, as to their Efficient cause?
A71177I suppose this, but does he mean so by Substantia too?
A71177If God can, then how will they be able from the words of Scripture to prove Transubstantiation?
A71177If God decrees us to be born sinners; Then he makes us to be sinners, and then where is his goodness?
A71177If God did promise pardon to such, then why did not the Church give security, as well as penance?
A71177If God does cast Infants into Hell for the sin of others, and yet did not condemn Devils, but for their own sin; where is his love to mankind?
A71177If God does damn any for that, he damns us for what we could not help, and for what himself did, and then where is his Justice?
A71177If God for the sin of Adam brings upon us a necessity of sinning; where is our liberty?
A71177If God hath given us a Nature by derivation, which is wholly corrupted, then how can it be that all which God made is good?
A71177If God sentence us to that Damnation, which he can not in justice inflict, where is his Wisdom?
A71177If Infants are not under the guilt of original sin, why are they baptized?
A71177If Peter after so great a fall did arrive to such an eminence of sanctity, hereafter who shall despair, provided that he will depart from his sins?

A71177If it be answered, that God will pardon him some way or other, at some time or other, I reply, yea, but who said so?
A71177If it be asked how can we have the punishment unless we also have the fault?
A71177If it be asked who then are meant by Elders, if by[ Brethren] S. Luke understands these Church- officers?
A71177If it be demanded why also he pretends to a power of authorizing his subjects to kill him?

A71177If it does not deserve damnation, why do they say it does?
A71177If it implies a Duty on our part, how then can children receive it, who can not doe duty at all?
A71177If it produces not any, why is such contention about it?
A71177If men repent not, God will be severely angry; it will be infinitely the worse for us if we do not, and shall it be so too if we do repent?
A71177If no man shall ever be damned for the sin of Adam alone, then I demand whether are they born quit from the guilt?
A71177If not, then still who succeeded him?
A71177If perfect, how came he to break the commandments?
A71177If so many acts of sin taken singly and alone do damn, how can any man be saved?
A71177If so, suppose yet further, that by the Divine judgment he should fall mad; Is the mad man capable of a new law?
A71177If so, then who shall reject Hereticks when Titus is dead?
A71177If the Apostles admitted all to their Communion that believed this Creed, why shall we exclude any that preserve the same intire?
A71177If the Apostles did not represent the whole Church, why then do all communicate?
A71177If the Bishop have but one Presbyter, must one be taken from him?
A71177If the Bishops had the Parishes, what cure had the Priests?

A71177If they be not born free, when are they quitted?
A71177If they can pray with the Spirit, why do they not also preach with the Spirit?
A71177If they did ill, from what principle shall we judge of the right of ordinations?
A71177If they had, why did Saint Paul take it from them to invest Titus with it?
A71177If they were not free, how could we be guilty?
A71177If this corruption had been natural and unavoidable, why did God punish all the world for it, except eight persons?
A71177If this were not true, how shall the Church be governed?
A71177If thou, Lord, wilt be extreme to mark what is done amiss, O Lord who may abide it?
A71177If we believe them to be crown''d, why shall we deny but that they strove lawfully?

A71177If we labour not under the guilt of original sin, why in our infancy are we baptized?
A71177If we manducate only the accidents,* then how do we eat Christs body?
A71177If we must judge, then we must use our Reason; if we must not judge, why do they produce evidence?
A71177If you ask where it is written?
A71177Ignis verò quomodo erit calore careus?
A71177Illa Concupiscentialis inobedientia quanto magis absque culpa est in corpore non consentientis, si absque culpa est in corpore dormientis?
A71177In the days of the Apostles the Holy Spirit did produce miraculous effects, but neither always, nor at all in all men: Are all workers of Miracles?
A71177In the sixth General Council, Honorius Pope of Rome was condemned; did that Council stay for the Popes Confirmation before they sent forth the Decree?
A71177Is God better served?
A71177Is Hell so easie a pain, or are the souls of children of so cheap, so contemptible a price, that God should so easily throw them into Hell?
A71177Is Jesus Christ formed in him?
A71177Is any man afflicted?
A71177Is it because we are commanded by the Apostle to reject a Heretick after two admonitions, and not bid such a one God speed?
A71177Is it by a natural consequent that we are guilty of Adams sin, or is it by the decree of God?
A71177Is it by the necessity of Nature, or by the liberty of our Will?
A71177Is it in all cases of the world unjust for God, to impute our fathers sins to us unto eternal condemnation; and is it otherwise in this only?
A71177Is it necessary they should perform any condition?
A71177Is it necessary?
A71177Is it not lawful for God, by an instrument of his own, under Holy hands to accord the heights, and sublimity of the Spirit?
A71177Is it not lawful to give thanks for the life and death, for the resurrection, holiness and glorification of Christ?
A71177Is it not next to an evidence of fact, that this multiplication of Schisms must be removendo prohibens?
A71177Is it not therefore evident, that he absolutely decreed Damnation to these Persons?

A71177Is it the same thing that was in the person?
A71177Is not the King fons utriusque jurisdictionis?
A71177Is not the little finger of the Son heavier than the Fathers loyns?
A71177Is not their practice quite another thing than it was at first?
A71177Is not this a respect of persons, and partiality to some, and iniquity towards all?
A71177Is not this to be partial in judgment, and inconsiderate of what we do?
A71177Is she not put in the Roman Calendar, and the fourth of May appointed for her Festival?
A71177Is there any error or imperfection in the words?
A71177Is there any imperfection in them, and can we mend them, and correct the Magnificat?
A71177Is there any new revelation now of the manner?
A71177It appears not, saith the Objector, that this story was in it then: To whom does it not appear?
A71177It is a fallacy à posse ad esse affirmativè?
A71177It is very well they do no more; but I pray in what forms did God the Father ever appear, or the Holy and Mysterious Trinity?
A71177Know ye not that as many as are baptized into Christ Jesus, are baptized into his death?
A71177LASTLY, Did not the Pen- men of the Scripture, write the Epistles and Gospels respectively all by the Spirit?
A71177Let no man therefore despise a sin, or be bold to plead for it, as Lot for Zoar, Is it not a little one?
A71177Let them tell us where an infant did fornicate, or how he who had done nothing, could fall under the curse of Adam?
A71177Librum sacerdotalem quis nostrum resignare audeat, signatum à Confessoribus,& multorum jam martyrio consecratum?
A71177Man dieth and wasteth away, yea man giveth up the ghost, and where is he?
A71177May not Christ say to these men as sometime to the Jews, A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign, but no sign shall be given unto it?
A71177May we not be called Doctors?
A71177May we not then separate?
A71177Might they not be called Gratious Lords?
A71177NINTHLY, But lastly, how if the Spirit must be restrained, and that by precept Apostolical?
A71177NOW then I demand whether the Prayer of Manasses be so good a Prayer as the Lords Prayer?
A71177Nature disposes them well towards it, but in this inquiry if we ask what duty is passed upon a Brother to a Brother even for being so?
A71177Nay, is there any such thing as consecration at all?
A71177No, was not?
A71177No?
A71177Nor is it, whether Christ be really taken, but whether he be taken in a spiritual, or in a natural manner?
A71177Not so?
A71177Not to prove that Presbyters are sometimes called Presbyters; For who doubts that?
A71177Now I demand, what did Christ''s blessing effect upon the Bread and the Chalice?
A71177Now I demand, when God calls us to repentance, is it indifferent to him whether we repent to day or no?
A71177Now I desire it may be considered sadly and seriously, Is it not as much injury to the Spirit to restrain his matter, as to appoint his words?
A71177Now how will the Reader imagine that the Disswasive is confuted, and his testimonies from Antiquity answered?
A71177Now if our wills were free, why are they without our act, and whether we will or no, involv''d in the will of another?
A71177Now if so, I ask, Whether before that sin of Adam were our wills free, or not free?
A71177Now if the Church of Rome was of that opinion then, why is she not now?
A71177Now if the Fathers were not against them, what need these Arts?
A71177Now if they think their eyes may be credited for all the words of our blessed Saviour, why shall not their reason also?
A71177Now if this could be the complaint of a regenerate man, from what did Christ come to redeem us?
A71177Now of what is this a type?
A71177Now since for all our sins we are bound to ask pardon every day, if we do so, who dares say it is too much, that it is more than needs?
A71177Now the Apostles Creed does one; why therefore do not both intitle us to the promise?
A71177Now then I demand, whether Concupiscence before actual consent be a sin or no?
A71177Now then put case a Council should recede from Scripture; whether or no were we bound to believe its Decrees?
A71177Now what is that which thus may, or may not be found out?
A71177Now what is this ordinary Office?
A71177Now what should the Catholicks say or do?
A71177Now what solennity can be more required for the Pope to make a Cathedral determination of an Article?
A71177Numquid omnes Apostoli?
A71177O GOD my God, what have I done?
A71177O MY God, can yesterday be recall''d, and the flying hours be stopped?
A71177O death where is thy sting?
A71177O grave where is thy victory?
A71177O homo quicunque illam multitudinem peccatorum attendis, cur& omnipotentiam coelestis medici non attendis?
A71177O man, whosoever thou art, that attendest that multitude of thy sins, wherefore dost thou not attend to the Omnipotency of the Heavenly Physician?
A71177O my God, where is all that vanity which I suck''d so greedily as the wild Asses do the wind?
A71177O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into shame?
A71177Of Deacons?
A71177One is, you desire me to recite what else might impede your compliance with the Roman Church?
A71177Or could we do more before we were born than after?
A71177Or if he be not indifferent, is he displeas''d if we repent speedily?
A71177Or if he did not, to what purpose did he send Titus with all those powers before mentioned?
A71177Or if this was intended as sufficient, did the Apostles, or those Churches which they founded, know any thing else to be necessary?
A71177Or is it lawful to sin, and domineer, and Lord it over their Brethren for a week together?
A71177Or is the Spirit departed from him, upon the sight of a Pen and Inkhorn?
A71177Or shall it be unlawful, or at least a disgrace and disparagement to use any set Forms, especially of the Churches composition?
A71177Or suppose they had, does it follow they may be painted?
A71177Or to paint the Holy Trinity like three men talking to Abraham?
A71177Or what Image will ye make for him, who is a Spirit, and is in all things, and runs every where, and holds the earth in his fist?
A71177Or when we lay hands on Infants, does every one of you attend to hear them speak with Tongues?
A71177Or why may not his being a Deacon exclude his being an Evangelist, as well as his being an Evangelist exclude his being a Bishop?
A71177Or why shall his Successors at Rome more enjoy the benefit of it then his Successors at Antioch?
A71177Or why, is the way to Heaven now made narrower than in Lombards time?
A71177Or will it be denied but that they also are excellent Directories and Patterns for prayer?
A71177Or will not God pardon, unless the Priest absolves us?
A71177Origen says that the Christian people drinketh the blood of Christ, and the flesh of the word of God is true food; What then?
A71177Others, and they very many, are led by authority or examples of Princes and great personages: Numquis credit ex Principibus?
A71177Put case they were not Diocesan, but parish Bishops, what then?
A71177Quae laedunt oculos, festinas demere; si quid Est animum, differs curandi tempus in annum?
A71177Quando audisti( Clementissime Imperator) in causa fidei Laicos de Episcopo judicâsse?
A71177Quid Ministros plurimos, quid Diaconos in tertio, quid Presbyteros in secundo Sacerdotio constitutos?
A71177Quid commemorem Laicos qui tunc in Ecclesiâ nullâ ● uerant dignitate suffulti?
A71177Quid de parvulis qui solo Originali delicto tenentur fiet?
A71177Quid enim aliud est Impositio manuum nisi oratio super hominem?
A71177Quid enim aliud est episcopus,& c. For what else is a Bishop but he that is greater than all power?
A71177Quid enim est peccatum ad Dei misericordiam?
A71177Quid enim in praesenti saeculo prophetâ gloriosius, Pontifice clarius, Rege sublimius?
A71177Quid ergò festinat innocens aetas ad remissionem peccatorum?
A71177Quid potest, aut potuit nasci ex servo, nisi servus?
A71177Quid te exempta juvat spinis de millibus una?
A71177Quidenim aliud est Impositio manuum, nisi Oratio super hominem?
A71177Quis dabit mundum ab immundo, saith Job, How can a clean thing come from an unclean?
A71177Quis enim discrevit?
A71177Quis largitur opes veteri, fidóque sodali?
A71177Quo jure was this?
A71177Quomodo curam geret tanquam ad se pertinentis Angelus?
A71177Quomodo fidem eorum possumus denegare, quorum victoriam praedicamus?
A71177Quomodo potest Deus alibi esse vivus, alibi mortuus?
A71177Quomodo verò dices, Dei sum, si notas ● on produxeris?
A71177S. Austin did not speak of worshippers of Pictures alone: what then?
A71177S. Austin gave the same exposition, Vt quid paras dentes& ventrem?
A71177SECONDLY, Doth not the Minister confine and restrain the spirit of the Lords People, when they are tied to his Form?
A71177SEVENTHLY, Is it not a restraint of the spirit to sing a Psalm in Metre by appointment?
A71177Saint Paul was Bishop of the Church of Gentiles at Rome, how then comes the Infallibility by right of succession from Saint Peter?
A71177Scis quem dicam bonum, perfectum, absolutum?
A71177Sciscitante verò presbytero, quidnam hoc esset?
A71177Secondly, But I demand, When we speak of a body, what we mean by it?
A71177Secondly, But farther yet; I demand, can Infants receive Christ in the Eucharist?
A71177Secondly, For[ tibi dabo claves] was it personal or not?
A71177Sed numquid& peccavit?
A71177Seventhly, If the words were never so appropriate to Peter, or also communicated to his Successors, yet of what value will the consequent be?
A71177Shall mortal man be more just than God?
A71177Shall not they be called 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉?
A71177Shall the matter of Prayers be better in all Churches?
A71177Shall we now say, our eyes are deceived, our ears hear a false sound, our taste is abused, our hands are mistaken?
A71177Should they damn all the Donatists, and make the rent wider?
A71177Should they lie for God and for Religion, and to serve the ends of Truth say, the Donatists Baptism was not good?
A71177Si hoc eis non erit malum, non ergo amabunt regnum Dei tot innocentes imagines Dei?
A71177Since God imposeth not an impossible Law, how does it consist with his wisedom to impose what in justice he does not exact?
A71177So S. Jerome, Quid facit Episcopus( excepta ordinatione) quod Presbyter non faciat?
A71177So that if they dying in attestation of this Book were Martyrs, why do we condemn the Book for which they died?
A71177So that now the question is not, Whether the symbols be changed into Christs body and blood, or no?
A71177So that still the difficulty remains and the inquiry must go on, How we are to understand the Divine Justice in exacting an impossible law?
A71177So that to your question, How far a Dear and perfect Friendship is authoriz''d by the principles of Christianity?
A71177Some Papists hold that the Popedome is separable from the Bishoprick of Rome: how then can he get any thing by the title of Succession?
A71177Somebody brought in a hasty and a too forward death, but did he sin also?
A71177Sunt ne mei?
A71177Suppose the ordinary Diocesses had been Parishes, yet what were the Metropolitans, and the Primates, were they also Parish- Bishops?
A71177THIRDLY, For if we must speak this sence, why also are not the very words to be retained?
A71177THIRDLY, If the spirit must be at liberty, who shall assure us this liberty must be in Forms of Prayer?
A71177That Salvation may be had in your Church, is it ever the truer because we say it?
A71177That also is impossible, He is near that justifieth me, who will contend with me?
A71177That if any man enquires, whether or no his hatred against sin proceed from the love of God or no; that is, whether it be Attrition or Contrition?
A71177The Iconoclasts?
A71177The Lord God will help me, who is he that shall condemn me?
A71177The Presbyters which were at Crete before his coming had not Episcopal power, or coercive Jurisdiction, for why then was Titus sent?
A71177The Presbyters?
A71177The figure of the material cross was by Helena plac''d upon the heads of Kings, that the cross of Christ in Kings might be ador''d:] How so?
A71177The first is; Where was your Church before Luther?
A71177The last inquiry is, How friendships are to be conducted?
A71177The like to this, is that saying of the Pharisees,[ Thou wert altogether born in sin, and dost thou teach us?]
A71177The next Argument is, If Baptism be necessary to infants, upon whom is the imposition laid?
A71177The next Consideration concerning the Bishops jurisdiction is of what persons he is Judge?
A71177The next inquiry is How far it may extend?
A71177The two affirmatives are equal; one must be expounded tropically, which will you chuse?
A71177Thence they had their name, what was their heresie?
A71177There was no such order of things in our condemnation to death: must it therefore follow that there is no such in the justification of us unto life?
A71177Therefore Baptism is not the sign or ministery of the Holy Ghost?
A71177Think not that you taste bread and wine( saith he) No, what then?
A71177Thirdly, He was never condemned by any Council, and how then can he be called heretick?
A71177This guilt that is in nature, what is it?
A71177This is done in Baptism and Catechism; and what was the event of it?
A71177This is twice affirmed by S. Paul The Cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communication( so it should be read) of the bloud of Christ?
A71177Thou wast altogether born in sin, and dost thou teach us?
A71177To do bread?
A71177To do what?
A71177To lessen and sweeten this expression he tells us, it is indeed broken; but how?
A71177To the other Question; Whether an Ecclesiastical Tradition be of equal authority with Divine?
A71177To the same sence is that of S. James, Is any man sick among you?
A71177To this purpose it was once said before, Yea, but hath God said, In the day ye shall eat thereof ye shall die?
A71177To this purpose therefore is the wise advice of the son of Sirach, Hast thou sinn''d?
A71177To what purpose does God call us to Repentance, if at the same time he does not invite us to pardon?
A71177To what?
A71177To which also this consideration may be added, that if Baptism be necessary to the Salvation of Infants, upon whom is the imposition laid?
A71177To whom do you liken God?]
A71177Tun''i d dicere audes, quod nemo unquam homo antehac vidit, nec potest fieri, tempore uno, Homo idem duobus locis ut simul sit?
A71177Vel Ecclesiae Hierosolymitanae In qua Jacobus Sedit,& in quâ hodiè Iohannes sedet?

A71177Vpon the Doctrine of the Church where he lives?
A71177Vtr ● ● veram& incommutabilem,& natura characteres suos portantem?
A71177Was not Christ Master of his language?
A71177Was not that also by custom and condescension rather than by Divine disposition?
A71177Was the Church silent?
A71177Was this a doctrine fit for the Head of the Church, an infallible Doctor?
A71177Well, suppose this to be a good Interpretation; Why must I stay here?
A71177What advices are best, or can bring him most advantage?
A71177What are those?
A71177What can he do less for him?
A71177What could have been answered to them, if the doctrine and accidents of their time had furnished them with these or the like instances?
A71177What dignity had these seven here ordained?
A71177What else should they fear?
A71177What excuse can be made for him that will not so much as hold his peace to please God?
A71177What gave he but what he broke?
A71177What greater restraint than subjection?
A71177What have I done to you?
A71177What hinders any man from a quick consent at the first representation of these plain reasonings and authorities?
A71177What if two parties call each their Council?
A71177What in none?
A71177What in the world is baser and more abject than to see a man worshipping stones, and bowing himself before inanimate things?]
A71177What inconvenience in the nature of the thing?
A71177What is become of your Articles of your Religion?
A71177What is man that he should be clean, and he that is born of a woman that he should be righteous?
A71177What is the Presbytery, but a sacred Colledge, Counsellors and helpers or assessors to the Bishop?
A71177What is there in prayers that can edifie, that is not in such a Lyturgie so constituted?
A71177What it demonstrates and points at?
A71177What law?
A71177What man in the world is hasty to offer any thing unto God, if he be not, who prays ex tempore?
A71177What need he partake of himself?
A71177What prohibition?
A71177What reason or revelation is against it?

A71177Whether every single act of these Sins puts a man out of Gods favour?
A71177Whether is higher, a Bishoprick, or the office of an Evangelist?
A71177Whether is the wiser Man of the two, he who thinks and deliberates what to say, or he that utters his mind as fast as it comes?
A71177Whether or no that pain of being troubled for the loss of their goods be not a part of the Purgatory flames?
A71177Whether the Apostles of our Blessed Lord did not Orally deliver many things necessary to Salvation which were not committed to writing?

A71177Who then was the Parish Curate?
A71177Who would suppose David to make such a confession, or in his sorrow to hope for pardon for upbraiding not his own folly, but the decrees of God?

A71177Why may not Presbyter signifie one that is verily a Bishop, as Episcopus signifie a meer Presbyter?
A71177Why may not Transubstantiation be believed notwithstanding the many impossibilities, as well as the Trinity?
A71177Why may not[ Bishops] be meant in the proper sence?
A71177Why may there not be diverse Church- officers, and yet but one or two of them the Preacher?
A71177Why should not the many impossibilities be a bar against the belief of the Trinity as well as Transubstantiation?
A71177Why should they use them thus?
A71177Why shouldst thou be as a man astonied, as a mighty man that can not save?

A71177[ What does the mystery of Confirmation profit me after the mystery of Baptism?
A71177[ Who then is that faithful and wise Steward whom his Lord made Ruler over his Houshould?]
A71177and if God be with us, who can be against us?
A71177and if in publick Prayers, is not the liberty of the spirit sufficiently preserved, that the publick Spirit is free?
A71177and if it be a sin, whether it deserves damnation?
A71177and if it be neglected, what are we the farther of?
A71177and if it was then the use of the Church to pray with the understanding, why shall it not be so now?
A71177and if they had, how should they have been confuted?
A71177and that it be said, that without Gods grace they must have gone to Hell, because without it they could not go to Heaven?

A71177meaning, that no evil can invade you: and what aid shall you get?
A71177might not Presbyters do their duty without a license?
A71177of works?
A71177or Jerusalem where S. James sate?
A71177or can it be a body, and yet not be in a place?
A71177or can it be that a finite should, remaining finite, yet not be finite, but indefinite and in innumerable places at once*?
A71177or did all his office expire with his person?
A71177or else how inconsequent is that argument which concludes its purpose upon so false pretence and supposition?
A71177or else why may not Deacons be confounded, and be all one with Bishop, as well as Presbyter?
A71177or hath God said nothing at all concerning them?
A71177or how can it be supposed he should strive against all vice, when he can excuse so much upon his Nature?
A71177or if he does not exact it, how we understand the way of the Divine Wisdom in imposing that law which he can not justly exact?
A71177or indeed how shall he strive at all?
A71177or is it nothing so certain to the understanding, as any thing is to the eye?
A71177or is the Prayer of Judith, or of Tobias, or of Judas Macchabeus, or of the Son of Sirach, is any of these so good?
A71177or is there any one man, that hath translated perfectly, or expounded infallibly?

A71177shall not the Judge of all the world do right?
A71177shall not they exercise authority?

A71177than this comes too: for why are not all controversies determined?
A71177that he who did not transmit life, should transmit his sin?
A71177that is, What are the duties in presence and in absence; whether the friend may not desire to enjoy his friend as well as his friendship?
A71177that is, are the things chang''d in their essentials, and yet remain the same?

A71177that is, whether they can be the same, when they are not the same?
A71177that the Apostles did see and feel a body, flesh, and blood, and bones, how could they convince these misbelievers?
A71177the Bishop or the Priest?
A71177the bread which we break, is it not the communication of the body of Christ?
A71177then how are they chang''d, and then what hath God done to them?
A71177to sin?
A71177to the Question, Cur tamen Patrem Domini nostri Jesu Christi non oculis subjicimus?
A71177to the parents or to the children?

A71177was it not in your power to have let it alone?
A71177was there such a man as S. Basil?
A71177were we ever ask''d?

A71177what are we the nearer heaven if we are baptized?
A71177what did he break, but that which he took?
A71177what did he take?
A71177what is become of all Laws, and of all Vertue and vice?

A71177where shall we either have peace or security?
A71177whether it be of advantage to the interest of his soul?
A71177whither am I fallen?
A71177whither is that pleasure and madness gone which so ravish''d all my senses, and made me deaf to the holy charms of thy divinest Spirit?
A71177who shall deliver me from the body of this death?
A71177whom shall he bless?

A71177why shall not Ephesus where S. John sate?
A71177why was the Bishop of Rome made a party and a concurrent, as other good Bishops were, and not a Judge and an Arbitrator in the Question?
A71177will it inferr more then the Headship of the Jewish Synagogue, where clearly the High Priest was supreme in many senses, yet in no sense infallible?
A71177will the Pope confirm a Council against himself; will he condemn his own heresie?
A71177will they reckon it in Adam after the Fall, or in Christ immediately promised?
A71177yet I must not say therefore, If this be done in the dry tree, what shall be done in the green?
A71177yet let it be considered, whether or no do not the smallest unremitted sins, increase the torments of hell in their proportion?
