| A61133 | Is he not a pure, holy, glorious Head in his Gospel- dispensation? |
| A61133 | Is it more priviledge to be founded upon a Statute, or Act of Parliament, then Scripture? |
| A61133 | Is it thus in Laws humane, and not much more in Ordinances divine? |
| A61133 | Is not our Covenant mixt accordingly of Religion and State? |
| A61133 | Is not the Spiritual or soul- liberty, the more glorious liberty of the Subject? |
| A61133 | Is the people so in the exercise and capacity of it as in the Gospel times? |

| A61133 | Never such a pure Church heard on? |
| A61133 | No Heresie in a whole Kingdom? |
| A61133 | No Schism in a whole Kingdom? |
| A61133 | Now Reader, judge, Which government affects Dominion? |
| A61133 | Now whether is it more excellent to dream dreams, or to see visions? |
| A61133 | Now, How can a Church- covenant be both true and false? |
| A61133 | Now, if such changes and conversions were in material or sensible things, as from water to blood, from water to wine, how would it astonish? |
| A61133 | Now, what have you overthrown here? |
| A61133 | Set on? |
| A61133 | Shall I take the members of my body, saith Paul, and joyn them to an harlot, to make one flesh? |
| A61133 | Should the Churches bee ever persecuted, and have no rest? |

| A61133 | This is his seal to his politike Aphorism: But will the bars of a Castle be taken by letting alone? |
| A61133 | Those of your way are against a little Church- covenant, and why not a great one? |
| A61133 | Though you of the Assembly cast in of your aboundance, may not the poor ones cast in their mite? |
| A61133 | To that If against a speedy Government, then against a Government at any time, I answer, How do you infer that? |
| A61133 | To that of his, Is it good parting with the stakes? |
| A61133 | To your first I reply; It is true in civill government, rule there rather then try: But what is that to Church- government, or Discipline? |
| A61133 | To your other; Why should ye speak of the governments fluttering on a lime- twig at Westminster? |
| A61133 | To your third; What is that to the present Discipline what the Covenant abjures? |

| A39674 | And is the loss of Grace and Spiritual strength, no hurt to a Believer? |
| A39674 | And is there no hurt in spiritual withdrawments of God from their Souls? |
| A39674 | And is there no hurt in that? |

| A39674 | Art thou a weak unstudied Christian? |
| A39674 | Augustine answers that Question, Why doth not God, since he hates Errors, sweep them out of the World? |
| A39674 | But did, or can the Law forbear or cease to curse those that are absolutely under it as a ministration of death and condemnation? |
| A39674 | But if men were justified from Eterternity, how is their Justification the fruit and result of the blood of the Cross? |
| A39674 | But what stand I upon particular, though renowned names? |
| A39674 | But what''s all this to your purpose? |
| A39674 | But when he had to do with God, he disputes no more, but saith, Behold, I am vile, what shall I answer thee? |
| A39674 | But why can I not meet with one word among them, that fairly advances to grapple with my Argument? |

| A39674 | Did these things pass from them to Christ, and yet do they still inhere in them? |
| A39674 | Did ye at all fast to me? |
| A39674 | Did you find it an hot Iron, which you durst not touch? |
| A39674 | Do you think that God''s A ● flictions or Pardons are blind- fold Acts, done at random? |
| A39674 | Does it not deceive all the formal hypocrites in the World in this very point? |
| A39674 | Doth he not say the very same thing I do, that there must be a restipulation in ● proper Covenant? |
| A39674 | Doth not the ear( that is, the understanding by the ear) try words, as the mouth tasteth meat? |
| A39674 | First, How far did the Covenant of Grace prevail against the Covenant of Works? |
| A39674 | First, What do I say more in all this, than what those Worthies before- mentioned do expresly affirm? |
| A39674 | For what is the substantial part of the Covenant of Grace now, but the same it was to Abraham and his Seed before? |

| A39674 | How shall they call upon him of whom they have not heard? |
| A39674 | I mean, living upon your own weak and insufficient Gifts, in the sinful neglect of Christ''s Appointments? |
| A39674 | I say, How often are these things buz''d into the ears of the people, to alienate their hearts from so sweet and beneficial a Duty? |
| A39674 | I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people? |

| A39674 | If Sin it self be so transferr''d from them to Christ? |
| A39674 | If it be said, the Elect were not justified till the death of Christ: I demand then what became of all them that died before the death of Christ? |
| A39674 | Is War, Captivity, Festering painful Wounds, causing them to roar, no hurt to Believers? |
| A39674 | Is it absurd to place Vocation before Predestination, or Glorification before Justification? |
| A39674 | Is it not altogether promisory on God''s part, without any restipulation on Abraham''s? |
| A39674 | Is it not as easie for a Man by his own strength to fulfil the whole Law, as to repent, and believe the Promise of the Gospel? |
| A39674 | Is this my old friendly Neighbour? |
| A39674 | It questions his Veracity, in saying with Nicodemus, How can these things be? |
| A39674 | Now how sad and dangerous a thing is this, for Satan to ride the Fore- horse, and guide that, that is to guide the life of man? |
| A39674 | Now what is your Reply to this? |
| A39674 | Or in what point doth it touch my Argument? |
| A39674 | Or lastly, Did Circumcision, the Sign and Seal added to Abraham''s Covenant, make it an Adam''s Covenant of Works? |
| A39674 | Or, what place is left for the justification of any sinner in the World? |
| A39674 | Secondly, You deny the Law was added to the Promise, and ask me why it might not be added to the first Covenant to re- inforce that? |
| A39674 | Shall I give my First- born for my Transgression, the Fruit of my Body for the Sin of my Soul? |
| A39674 | Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? |
| A39674 | So, for that Scriptural Heavenly Duty of Singing: What more commonly alledged against it, than the abuse and ill effects of that precious Ordinance? |

| A39674 | The glory of the Lord shall be thy rereward, through ignorance of the word, read re- reward, that is, a double reward to his people? |
| A39674 | Very well, and was it not so then? |
| A39674 | Was ever such a Promise as this, found in a Covenant of Works? |
| A39674 | Was it so far prevalent and victorious as utterly to vanquish and disannul it, as a Covenant of Works to them? |
| A39674 | Was the Victory you speak of, a compleat, or a partial one? |

| A39663 | 2, O anim ● la vagula, ● blandula, heu quo vadis? |
| A39663 | 63, 64, 65. how illegal and barbarous a thing was this? |
| A39663 | A beast will not be driven into the fire, and will not you be kept out? |
| A39663 | A wounded spirit who can bear? |
| A39663 | Again, You say God hath forsaken you, but hath he let loose the bridle before you? |
| A39663 | Again, are you his spiritual seed, his children by regeneration? |
| A39663 | Again, did God give Christ to such miseries and sufferings for me, how shall he withhold any thing now from me? |
| A39663 | Against a common prisoner? |
| A39663 | Ah friends, what a comfort is this? |
| A39663 | Ah, Christian, canst thou look upon Jesus as standing in thy room; to bear the wrath of a Deity for thee? |
| A39663 | Ah, what will the case of them be that go the other way? |
| A39663 | Alas, how can you imagine it? |
| A39663 | Alas, what are a few days and nights of sorrows, when they are past? |
| A39663 | Alas, whither wilt thou turn? |
| A39663 | An afflicted soul, in an afflicted body? |
| A39663 | And about the ninth hour Iesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lamasabachtani, that is to say, my God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? |
| A39663 | And are you better than they? |
| A39663 | And are you better than they? |
| A39663 | And as often the most apt and likely means are rendred wholly ineffectual? |
| A39663 | And can God shut the door of Glory upon such a soul, that by grace is made meet for the inheritance? |
| A39663 | And can it be imagined, that the Father will fail his trust; who every way accquitted himself so punctually to the Father? |
| A39663 | And did he die the violent, painful, shameful, cursed, slow, and succourless death of the Cross? |
| A39663 | And did that people get any thing by that? |
| A39663 | And do not your confessions oblige you to greater circumspection and care for time to come? |
| A39663 | And do the Prophets live for ever? |
| A39663 | And dost thou defraud him of his own? |
| A39663 | And doth it become you to be proud, selfish and stout? |
| A39663 | And doth not this engage you to look to your lives, and keep them pure? |
| A39663 | And except thou do make up all this to them another way; what will become of these children, when their Father is gone? |
| A39663 | And from whom shall I expect it? |
| A39663 | And he lift up his eyes, and saw his brother Benjamin, his mothers Son; and said, is this your younger brother of whom ye spake to me? |
| A39663 | And how is the deliverance of men contrived from such persons? |
| A39663 | And how many have such as are worse than none? |
| A39663 | And how quickly did the rottenness of his principles discover themselves in the ruine of his profession? |
| A39663 | And how shall they be exercised without tribulations, can you tell? |
| A39663 | And if not, to what purpose are they? |
| A39663 | And if there be a sole sufficient cause in act, what hinders but the effect should follow? |
| A39663 | And in rebelling against them to rebell against the Lord? |
| A39663 | And in the next times, what more known, even to the Enemies of Christianity, than their fervent love one to another? |
| A39663 | And indeed had he been a sinner, what value or efficacy could have been in his Sacrifice? |
| A39663 | And is it not even so with you? |
| A39663 | And is it not hard for you to keep it down, or turn its course? |
| A39663 | And is it not so with those sent by him? |
| A39663 | And is it not so with you too? |
| A39663 | And is it strange that a poor deserted believer should mourn every time he looks heaven ward? |
| A39663 | And is not the Father of Spirits more full of bowels, more full of pity? |
| A39663 | And is not this a marvelous help to holiness of life? |
| A39663 | And it is as if he had said, O my Son, what shall be done for thee this day? |
| A39663 | And lastly, why did he ascend? |
| A39663 | And must it come to this Dismal Issue with you indeed? |
| A39663 | And now for which of all these kindnesses dost thou thus wrong and abuse me? |
| A39663 | And now our God, seeing thou hast given us such a deliverance as this; should we again break thy Commandments? |
| A39663 | And now what think you of all this? |
| A39663 | And shall I shrink for a trifle? |
| A39663 | And shall not all this engage you to God? |
| A39663 | And shall we not do as much for Christ, as we then did for the Devil? |
| A39663 | And sin, and confess? |
| A39663 | And suppose what thou imaginest, what is Twenty or Forty years when it is past? |
| A39663 | And then how had the promise of the Father been made good to him? |
| A39663 | And think with your selves now, was not this astonishing self- denial? |
| A39663 | And think you that they were idle on their parts? |
| A39663 | And thus you see what use your lives and actions shall be put to, and are these inconsiderable uses? |
| A39663 | And to how little purpose will be all that I have preacht, and you have heard of Christ, if it be not converted into practical godliness? |
| A39663 | And were not all these moulded out of the same Lump with you? |
| A39663 | And what an engagement doth it leave upon thy soul to obey, please and glorifie him? |
| A39663 | And what are the just aggravations of his fact? |
| A39663 | And what got he as a reward of his wickedness? |
| A39663 | And what greater evidence can there be that Christ set himself apart for you, than your setting your selves apart for him? |
| A39663 | And what had he spoken to exasperate them? |
| A39663 | And what manner of funeral Christ had? |
| A39663 | And what was the reason they forsook their Master, and left him to shift for himself when danger appeared? |
| A39663 | And what, my soul, hath thy carriage to Christ been, since this grace that wants a name appeared to thee? |
| A39663 | And when I had quickned thee, and made thee a living soul, what couldst thou have done without my exciting and assisting grace? |
| A39663 | And when he came into the world about it, with what a full and free consent did his heart eccho to the voice of his Father calling him to it? |
| A39663 | And when he had thus spoken, one of the Officers which stood by, stroke Iesus with the palm of his hand, saying, answerest thou the High- Priest so? |
| A39663 | And where is he that doth not so experience it? |
| A39663 | And whereas it is objected by some, if he fulfilled the whole Law for us by his active, what need then of this passive obedience? |
| A39663 | And who can abide in the fierceness of his anger? |
| A39663 | And who can discharge the Debtor, but the Creditor? |
| A39663 | And who can refrain from tears that hears or reads it? |
| A39663 | And who more persecuted? |
| A39663 | And why are faith and repentance prescribed as the means of pardon? |
| A39663 | And will he fail to make it good, when the time of the Promise is come, as at death it is? |
| A39663 | And with the vehement longings of their souls to be with Christ? |
| A39663 | And yet do you refuse him, and shut your hearts against him? |
| A39663 | And yet how few stir a foot towards Christ? |
| A39663 | And yet will not you live strictly and purely? |
| A39663 | And yet will you be careless still? |
| A39663 | And yet will you not be weaned from the lusts, customs, and evils of it? |
| A39663 | Are all these bonds tied with such slip- knots that you can get loose, and free your selves at pleasure from them? |
| A39663 | Are souls so wounded and prejudiced by their separation from the body, that they can not subsist or act separate from it? |
| A39663 | Are the fruits of sin like the fruits of obedience? |
| A39663 | Are there no mournings, meltings, hankerings after the Lord? |
| A39663 | Are there not many eyes upon you? |
| A39663 | Are they like those which the Redeemer suffered for our deliverance? |
| A39663 | Are they not privy to your secret wickedness? |
| A39663 | Are they not swallow''d up as a spoonful of water in the vast Ocean? |
| A39663 | Are you at any time staggering through unbelief? |
| A39663 | Are you at the very bottom, and not a man below you? |
| A39663 | Are you born of the Spirit? |
| A39663 | Are you fallen like the Ship in which Paul sailed, into a place where two Seas meet? |
| A39663 | Are you feeble and infirm? |
| A39663 | Are you not by them made partakers of his holiness? |
| A39663 | Are you not only turned Gods enemies, but your own too? |
| A39663 | Are you obliged or not, to this purity of life? |
| A39663 | Are you persecuted and afflicted for Christs sake? |
| A39663 | Are you poor? |
| A39663 | Are you reproached? |
| A39663 | Art thou too little touched, and unaffected with the evil of sin? |
| A39663 | As a Lamb for meekness, shall his Subjects be Lyons for fierceness? |
| A39663 | Aut argumentoram pondere firmiorem assensum cogit? |
| A39663 | Be righteous Judges, and tell me, whether you find an heart willing to forsake God? |
| A39663 | Besides, what pleasure in sin can you have? |
| A39663 | Bread and Wine are naturally fit to refresh, and nourish our bodies; but what fitness have they to nourish souls? |
| A39663 | But Thirdly, Whither did he ascend? |
| A39663 | But alas how oft doth advancement make us forget him? |
| A39663 | But are there any such in the world? |
| A39663 | But can you do so? |
| A39663 | But how could that be? |
| A39663 | But how durst he attempt such a wickedness as this, however he had stood in the opinion of Caesar? |
| A39663 | But how then should Christ have born the heat and burden of the day? |
| A39663 | But if God allow, yea and provide a sacrifice himself; how plainly doth it speak his intentions of peace and mercy? |
| A39663 | But if such a liberty as this be yielded, what may not men make the Scriptures speak? |
| A39663 | But then, whoever found him so, that tried him? |
| A39663 | But what is the finger of a man, to the soul of Christ? |
| A39663 | But what means this objection? |
| A39663 | But what speak I of your fearlesness of death? |
| A39663 | But what wilt thou do when thou shalt stand at the Bar and see that God who is thine enemy upon the throne? |
| A39663 | But where is that woman recorded, that gave her own flesh and blood to be meat and drink to her children? |
| A39663 | But who by dying can satisfie, and reconcile God? |
| A39663 | C ● jus modi voluptatis hactenus inexpertus sui? |
| A39663 | Can God exact satisfaction from the blood and death of his own Son, the surety of Believers; and yet still demand it from Believers? |
| A39663 | Can any doubt, if God have pardon for enemies, he hath none for children? |
| A39663 | Can any sorrows be greater than these? |
| A39663 | Can man thunder with an arm like God? |
| A39663 | Can not I be excused? |
| A39663 | Can not you find weeds enough there, that need such winter weather as this to rot them? |
| A39663 | Can such a sinner as I be forgiven? |
| A39663 | Can we commit the treasure to him, and not a trifle? |
| A39663 | Can we finish that which Christ himself could not? |
| A39663 | Can you expect he should gratifie your desires, when you make no more of grieving and displeasing him? |
| A39663 | Can you please your selves in displeasing your Father? |
| A39663 | Can you see none on earth in a more miserable state than your selves? |
| A39663 | Canst thou think on it, and not melt? |
| A39663 | Care you not whether they be saved, or whether they be damned? |
| A39663 | Christians, will you not all yield to this? |
| A39663 | Come sinner, come, dost thou make light of the threatnings of the wrath of God against sin? |
| A39663 | Come( said he) why do we tremble thus, do we not see our head above water? |
| A39663 | Consider with thy self man, how canst thou imagine thou canst support that infinite wrath that Christ grapled with in the room of Gods Elect? |
| A39663 | Contemn his rewards, take no delight or care to please him? |
| A39663 | Could God love us, and yet not be reconciled and satisfied? |
| A39663 | Could he get no other hand but the hand of an Apostle to assist him? |
| A39663 | Could ministers, could Angels have done that for the which I did? |
| A39663 | Could not he bear, and dost thou think to bear it? |
| A39663 | Could the Word have converted thee without me? |
| A39663 | Couldst thou go on in the way of Duty, if I had not led thee? |
| A39663 | Cur me non quoque torque donas,& illustris illius ordinis militem non creas? |
| A39663 | Cur quaso addidid bomo? |
| A39663 | Curet non me quoque torque donas? |
| A39663 | Dare any slight this gift of God? |
| A39663 | Did Christ ascend into Heaven? |

| A39663 | Did Christ pour out his soul to God, so ardently in the garden, when the hour of his trouble was at hand? |
| A39663 | Did Christ stoop so low as to become a man to save us? |
| A39663 | Did Christ stoop so much, and can not you stoop in the least? |
| A39663 | Did Christ stoop, and can not you stoop? |

| A39663 | Did Iudas sell Christ for mony? |
| A39663 | Did ever any of us endure for him, what he endured for us? |
| A39663 | Did he deserve a blow on his mouth for this? |
| A39663 | Did he finish the work by himself, and will he ever divide the glory and praise of it with us? |
| A39663 | Did he flee as an Eagle towards Heaven, and we creep like snails? |
| A39663 | Did he give waters, and can not he give bread also? |
| A39663 | Did he groan, sweat, bleed, endure the Cross, and lay down his life for this? |
| A39663 | Did he help you then, and can not he do so now? |
| A39663 | Did he not shed his blood to redeem you from your vain conversations? |
| A39663 | Did he now repent of the bargain? |
| A39663 | Did he run to glory and shall we linger? |
| A39663 | Did he take our nature, and suffer such terrible things in it for nothing? |
| A39663 | Did it make its way through the Law, through the wrath of God, through the grave, through thine own unbelief, and great unworthiness to come to thee? |
| A39663 | Did man offend and violate the Law of God? |
| A39663 | Did not the Lord severely avenge the blood of Christ on them, and their Children? |
| A39663 | Did the Devil win the consent of Iudas to such a design as this? |

| A39663 | Did the world help on the Humiliation of Christ by their base and vile usage of him? |
| A39663 | Did they not see how his Birth, Life, and Death squar''d with the Prophesies both in time, place, and manner? |
| A39663 | Did we then glory in our shame, and shall we now be ashamed of our glory? |
| A39663 | Did you learn that from Christ, or any of his? |
| A39663 | Did you mean as you said? |

| A39663 | Fifthly, Do ye live Holy and Righteous lives? |
| A39663 | Fifthly, How did Christ ascend into Heaven? |
| A39663 | Fifthly, How should we have enjoyed the great blessings of the Spirit and Ordinances, if Christ had not ascended? |
| A39663 | Fifthly, Is thy faith staggered at the promises? |

| A39663 | Fifthly, how? |
| A39663 | Filled with unbelieving suspicions of the promises? |
| A39663 | First, Do ye think it possible to avoid appearing after that terrible citation is given to the World by the Trump of God? |
| A39663 | First, For the circumstance of place, where was this last, and remarkable prayer poured out to God? |
| A39663 | First, Shall men of such principles walk as others do? |
| A39663 | First, To whom do you yield your obedience? |
| A39663 | First, We will enquire what those mercies and special favours were, which Christ beg''d for his people, when he was to die? |
| A39663 | First, What are we to understand here by Gods right hand? |
| A39663 | First, What is implyed in this Act of a believer his commending or committing his soul into the hands of God at Death? |

| A39663 | First, What was the work which Christ finished by his death? |
| A39663 | First, What was their ignorance, who Crucified Christ? |

| A39663 | First, Who they were? |
| A39663 | First, Why should the happiness of believers be deferred, since they are immediatly capable of enjoying it, assoon as separated from the body? |
| A39663 | First, who ascended? |
| A39663 | Fit ● hly, It is the most sweet, and comfortable knowledge; to be studying Jesus Christ, what is it? |
| A39663 | For he much more than Paul could say, who is afflicted and I burn not? |
| A39663 | For how can they that there see what Christ suffered for sin, live any longer therein? |
| A39663 | For how could our sins be laid on him, but as he stood in our stead? |
| A39663 | For if so, how comes it to obtain so universally? |
| A39663 | For to what purpose is the blood of Christ our sacrifice shed, unless it be actually and personally applyed, and appropriated by faith? |
| A39663 | For to whom should children make their moan, but to their Father? |
| A39663 | For what is that which he here calls himself, but the same that was consecrated to be a Sacrifice; even his humane nature? |

| A39663 | Fourthly, If no defence or plea be left thee, then what canst thou imagine should retard the Sentence? |
