A05581 | A friend asking M. Burton, if he would have bin without this particular suffering? |
A05581 | Alas( said he) who is worthy of the least mercy? |
A05581 | And shall I be condemned for a particular act, when no accusation of any particular act can bee brought against mee? |
A05581 | And then he called againe to Dr. Bastwicke and Mr. Prynne asking them how they did? |
A05581 | And what can wee suffer, wherein hee hath not gone before us, even in the same kinde? |
A05581 | And with whom doth the Lord consult, when he came downe? |
A05581 | And yet did hee not rise againe, and thereby brought deliverance and victory to us all, so as we are more then Conquerors through him that loved us? |
A05581 | But Mr. Prynne, the Court desires no such long Answer; Are you guilty or not guilty? |
A05581 | But this is not the busines of the day; Why brought you not in your Answer in due time? |
A05581 | Did not you send that booke, as now it is, to a Noble mans house, together with a Letter directed to him? |

A05581 | Men, Brethren, and Fathers, into what an age are wee fallen? |
A05581 | Mr. Burton, what say you? |
A05581 | My Lord, doth not his savour of a base cowardly spirit? |
A05581 | My good Lord, I am to Answer in a defensive way, Is here any one, that can witnes any thing against me? |
A05581 | O my Noble Lords? |
A05581 | One asked him how hee did? |
A05581 | Some speaking to him concerning that suffering of shedding his blood: Hee answered, What is my blood to Christs blood? |
A05581 | Then speake a Gods name, and shew cause why the Court should not proceed in Censure( as taking the cause pro confesso) against you? |
A05581 | To whom hee replied, Are you well? |
A05581 | To whom shee made answer; Sweet heart, I am not sadd: No, said hee? |
A05581 | Was not the Crosse more shamefull, yea and more painfull then a Pillary? |

A05581 | Who shall know our Censure, before the Court passe it? |
A05581 | is it not too base an act for so noble an assembly, and for so righteous and honourable a cause? |
A05581 | is this righteous judgement? |
A05581 | is this righteous judgement? |
A05581 | or shall I be ashamed of a Pillary for Christs, who was not ashamed of a Crosse for mee? |
A05581 | vvhat vvill become of thee, if thou looke not the sooner into thine ovvne Priviledges, and maintainest not thine ovvne lavvfull Liberty? |
A05581 | was not hee deprived, when they smote the Shepherd, and the Sheepe were scattered? |
A05581 | who would not beare it? |
A85386 | And he that will not deale honestly in the light, who will trust in the dark? |
A85386 | Can a man gather any definition of Presumption, or of a Presumptuous man, from hence? |
A85386 | Can such jealousies as these issue from any, but from a rancorous or dis- affected heart towards the Parliament? |
A85386 | Did he therefore PRESVMPTVOVSLY, to conceive it before- hand, and so peremptorily conclude for it as he hath done? |
A85386 | Did the Parliament ever give you the least colour or occasion of such uncharitable, unchristian, that I say not detestable, jealousie? |
A85386 | Doe I anywhere say that either I feare, or presume the Parliament might dash their foote against the stone spoken of? |
A85386 | Have yee suffered so many things in vaine? |
A85386 | I beseech you deale ingenously with your self and me: is there not farre more malignancie in the interpretation, then in the text? |
A85386 | Is boldnesse in the Sun, like to prove modestiē in the shade? |
A85386 | Or hath the Omniscient anointed your eyes with any such eye- salve, which makes you able to see into the hearts and reins and spirits of men? |
A85386 | THEREFORE may I blush: wherefore? |
A85386 | The Parliament had not made choyce of, nor setled any Church- Government for Mr. Edwards, when he compos''d and printed his Antapologie? |
A85386 | What Logick is there in all this Rhetorick to prove, that what I did in the passages under contest, I did rashly or without good grounds? |
A85386 | When the Apostle Paul confesseth himself to have been a Blasphemer, Persecutor a,& c. doth he give any definition of either? |
A85386 | Why then doe you represent me so strangely, if not malignantly, jealous over them, as to do both, both feare and presume? |
A85386 | or did you not straine the roote overhard, to make such an extraction as this out of it? |
A85386 | or have I acknowledged either in writing or otherwise, any such intent or purpose as you speak of, in those passages? |
A85386 | or is it beyond the upper region of possibilities, that I should have any other purpose in them, then what you affirme? |
A85386 | what? |
A85386 | yea, why not rather Ecclesiasticall, then civill? |
A85400 | 21. that he spake concerning the Temple of his body? |
A85400 | And if Ministers be invested in the Propheticall office of Christ, how dares Mr Prynne refuse to hearken unto them? |
A85400 | And is there any harme in this counsell or contrariety either to the Policy or Practice of any wise or godly man? |
A85400 | And where is the prediction of his delivering up his Kingdome unto his Father, if he hath delivered it up( or down rather) unto men? |
A85400 | But if he means, one and the same ministeriall and visible Church, we answer, by demanding, How can this thing be? |
A85400 | For 1. if such members when excommunicated, doe not actually cease to be members, I would know whether then they cease to be such potentially onely? |
A85400 | For are not the Offices of Christ incommunicable? |
A85400 | For who is there that would set a bungler on work, that hath judgement and reason enough to chuse a Master- workman? |

A65867 | Again, some object, That God hath Mercy on whom he will, and whom he will be hardneth; Hath not the Potter power over the Clay? |
A65867 | And as for his having power over the works of his hands, as the Potter hath over the Clay; who questions that? |
A65867 | And asked these Priests, what Baptism it was? |
A65867 | And the Lord said unto Cain, why art thou wroth? |
A65867 | And then his last Question was, Whether the Lords Supper be not an Ordinance of Christ, binding us? |
A65867 | And whatsoever may be known of God, is it not manifest within? |
A65867 | And, oh Jerusalem, wash thine heart from wickedness, that thou mayst be saved; how long shall thy vain thoughts lodge within thee? |
A65867 | Are you like to receive his teachings in the darkness? |
A65867 | But, we pray you, how should you know and receive Gods teachings or leading into all Truth, if not by his Light within? |
A65867 | Hear, O House of Israel, Is not my Way equal? |
A65867 | Moreover, to these Questions before S. S. added three more; as in the first place, Whether the Scriptures are not to be our Rule of Life? |
A65867 | Query, Whether or no wilt thou grant the same thing that S. Scandret hath done; viz ▪ that a Light of the Spirit of God is in every man? |
A65867 | Reply, Did you ever read or hear such Doctrine before? |
A65867 | Reply, Was not its appearance Spiritual, how then did it appear to all, and not in all? |
A65867 | Reply, What then did he hate Esau for? |
A65867 | S. S. A justified state is attended with Sanctification; what Righteousness is that which justifies? |
A65867 | S. S. Did not God require more of Adam then the Light did dictate? |
A65867 | S. S. This doth not prove that the Light doth reveal Christ; Is this Grace( that hath appeared to all) the Light in every man? |
A65867 | S. S. This is not a full Light,& c. for God created the Stars, which are a Light; Must they therefore be the full Light of the Day& c? |
A65867 | S. S. Who affirms they are? |
A65867 | Secondly, Whether Perfection be attainable in this life? |
A65867 | So that here the Light is the Rule to manifest and try mens actions, whether they are wrought in God, yes or nay? |
A65867 | Thirdly, Whether impure persons( while such) be justified by the imputation of Christ''s Righteousness? |
A65867 | V. Now concerning Justification, the question being asked, what it is? |
A65867 | Was not the Spirit, the Law and Light of the Lord within? |
A65867 | Was not their Rule within, and the Revelation of the things contained in Scripture inward, before they were written? |
A65867 | We will appeal to the people, whether any of them can say, when they are reproved of sin, that they are not convinced of a contrary sta ● e? |
A65867 | What then will become of all them that never came under it: Must they all be damned for want of Sprinkling or Plunging in Water? |
A65867 | Whether Baptism with water be an Ordinance of Christ? |
A65867 | Who would come over the threshold to Discourse with such a one? |
A65867 | Wo unto him that sayeth unto his Father, what begettest thou,& c? |
A65867 | and what do they tend to? |
A65867 | and what is the good end of God in affording this Light of his Spirit to all, and such operations in unbelievers? |
A65867 | and whether the Day dawning, and the Day- Star arising in the hearts be the Scriptures? |
A65867 | and why is thy Countenance faln? |
A65867 | are not your wayes unequal? |
A65867 | but how long it is between death and this time of clensing? |
A65867 | but must not the Body be subject to the Spirit, seeing Believers are to be sanctified throughout, in Body, Soul and Spirit? |
A65867 | for when G. W. in a Letter would have put him to prove his call to the Ministry; and whether he own''d immediate Revelation in these dayes? |
A65867 | hast not thou made an Hedge about him,& c? |
A65867 | if thou do well, shalt thou not be accepted? |
A65867 | is he not among them that searched the Scriptures to find Eternal Life in them, but would not come to Christ that they might have Life? |
A65867 | is not this like the Pope''s Doctrine for a Purgatory? |
A65867 | must they pin it upon their sleeves? |
A65867 | must they turn their backs on the Light of Christ within, to be captivated with the Popes and Priests darkness, with their dark and implicite faith? |
A65867 | or by turning your backs on the Light? |
A65867 | or that his Commands should be made void? |
A65867 | or whether he were a true administrator of it? |
A65867 | or whether or no professed Christians in England must be inferiour to the Gentiles or Heathen? |
A65867 | or whether the Saints deceased are yet clensed, yes or nay? |
A65867 | or will you deny it? |
A65867 | were it not an impertinent vain thing, to warn persons of such a danger, if they were absolutely secured from being liable to any such danger? |
A65867 | were they not from the Light within? |
A65867 | what, doth he render man like a Block, or a Beast, not to go or act in obedience or subjection, but as he is forc''d or driven? |
A65867 | whether that of Water, or the Baptism of the Spirit? |

A65296 | 3 Dost not thou grieve under thy hardnesse? |
A65296 | 4 Have we given up our selves to Christ? |
A65296 | 4 Praise is a more distinguishing work; by this a Christian excels all the infernall spirits; dost thou talk of God? |
A65296 | 4 The end of affliction is glorious; the Iews were captive in Babylon, but what was the end? |
A65296 | 5. and shall not these stones bee cemented together with* Love? |
A65296 | 54. and will God, think you, hear such prayers as come from a wrathful heart: will hee eat of our leavened bread? |
A65296 | 6 Wee have deserved worse at Gods hands; hath hee taken away a childe, a wife, a parent? |
A65296 | 8. how barbarous is it for brethren not to love? |
A65296 | A sinners heart is a Gaol, both for darkness and noysomness, and will Gods free spirit † be confined to a prison? |
A65296 | A sinners heart is the Embleme of Hell, what should Gods spirit do there? |
A65296 | Again, do we attend the Word with Reverential Devotion? |
A65296 | Again, do we love the Sanctity of the word? |
A65296 | Again, do we love the convictions of the word? |
A65296 | And do you think he would let his Inheritance be wrested out of his † hands? |
A65296 | And how would that title properly be given to Christ, Finisher of the* Faith? |
A65296 | And is it thus with us? |
A65296 | And may not this tempt all to become godly? |
A65296 | And no cessation of arms till death; will not this cause tears? |
A65296 | And what more loved then a portion? |
A65296 | And why would David inclose the Word in his heart? |
A65296 | Are not the wicked said to partake of the Holy Ghost? |
A65296 | Are not these the works of Charity I have done? |

A65296 | Are they godly, who are still in the Region of darkness? |
A65296 | Art thou driven from thy habitation? |
A65296 | As if one should paint the wall of his house, and let the Timber rot: Is not he a fool who will feed the Devil with his Soul? |
A65296 | As that Emperour who fed his Lion with † Feasant: Is not he a fool who lays a snare for himself? |
A65296 | As the father hath loved me, so have I loved you: What Angel can tell how God the Father loves Christ? |
A65296 | Atheists say, It is vain to serve God; and what profit is it that we have kept his Ordinances? |
A65296 | Auro quid melius? |
A65296 | Better lose thy liberty and keep thy peace, than lose thy peace and keep thy liberty: Is it loss of Estate? |
A65296 | But alas, how can they say they love the Scriptures, who are seldome conversant in them? |
A65296 | But alas, what is one the better to have others commend him, and his Conscience condemn him? |
A65296 | But doth every godly man arrive at this, to forgive, yea love his Enemies? |
A65296 | But how may we know the motions of the Spirit from a delusion? |
A65296 | But how sad is it when the Shepherds need to be fed? |
A65296 | But how shall I know that I am savingly bruised? |
A65296 | But how shall I know that I make a right application of Christ? |
A65296 | But how shall we get this Saving Knowledge? |
A65296 | But is there no service we owe to men? |
A65296 | But is this the sign of a godly man to be filled with the Spirit? |
A65296 | But it is impossible for any one to walk according to the full bredth of Gods Law, and to follow God fully? |
A65296 | But may a Childe of God say, either I have not all these Characters, or they are so weakly wrought in me, that I can not discern them? |
A65296 | But may not a godly man have roving thoughts in duty? |
A65296 | But the unregenerate taste of the Heavenly Gift? |
A65296 | But we can not say to Christ, wherein hast thou loved us? |
A65296 | But what needs prayer, when God hath made so many promises of blessings? |
A65296 | But what shall we do that we may be godly? |
A65296 | But whence is it, that grace, even the least degree of it, should not be quenched? |
A65296 | But where is moderation? |
A65296 | But why do persons content themselves with a show of godliness? |
A65296 | But why is a godly man a weeper? |
A65296 | But why so much fervour in Religion? |

A65296 | Canst thou bless God that the sword of the Spirit hath divided between thee and thy lusts? |
A65296 | Christ made a plaister of his own bloud to heal a broken † heart: Christ is the quintessence of love? |
A65296 | Christ replies, Thou hast said it? |
A65296 | Christ will expunge thy sins in his blood; he will say, shall I condemn my spouse? |
A65296 | Christian, canst thou say sin is thy burden, Christ is thy delight? |
A65296 | Christians must count the cost before they build; why are people so hasty in laying down Religion, but because they were so hasty in taking it up? |
A65296 | Christians, what do you reserve your zeal for? |
A65296 | David who was modelled after Gods heart, how melodiously did he warble out Gods praises? |
A65296 | Deriding of the spirit comes very neer to the despighting of it: How can men be sanctified but by the spirit? |

A65296 | Didst thou so often defy the devil, and art thou now come to dwel with me? |
A65296 | Do they think to have mercy from God who never seek it? |
A65296 | Do we commend Christ to others? |
A65296 | Do we delight in drawing nigh to him, and come before him with singing? |
A65296 | Do we fear the loss of the word preached, more than the loss of peace and trading? |

A65296 | For ardent affection: No Husband like Christ for love: The Lord saith to the people, I have loved you; and they say, Wherein hast thou loved us? |
A65296 | For 〈 ◊ 〉 maketh thee to differ from another? |
A65296 | God hath waited upon* us: Did not he wait for our repentance? |
A65296 | Godliness giv ●* assurance, yea holy triumph in Go ● and how sweet is † that? |
A65296 | Godliness is the best Trade we can drive, it brings profit; wicked men say, It is vain to serve God, and what profit is it? |
A65296 | Gods love doth not make him blind, he can see infirmities, but how? |
A65296 | Gods spirit is a rich Jewel, go to him for it, Lord give me thy spirit, where is the Jewel thou didst promise me? |

A65296 | He wait on his servants: Was there ever such a Master? |
A65296 | He who wants Grace, is like one who wants a pardon, he is every hour in fear of Execution: How can a wicked man rejoyce? |
A65296 | He wil say, what is become of all thy Vows, Tears, Confessions? |
A65296 | His Father had not displeased him at any time, saying, why hast thou done so? |

A65296 | King Agrippa, beleevest thou the Prophets? |
A65296 | King Ptolomy asked one how he might be in rest when he dreamed? |
A65296 | Know ye not, that the Saints shall judge the world? |
A65296 | Let integrity preserve me: How many storms was Iob in? |
A65296 | Let me dye the death of the righteous, and let my end bee like his: If then godliness be so desirable at death, why should we not pursue after it now? |

A65296 | O how hath God enriched us with his silver showers? |
A65296 | O what a comfort is this? |

A65296 | So saith the proud man, are not these the Prayers I have made? |
A65296 | So when we do not come in Christs Name in prayer, we offer up Incense without a Priest, and what can we expect but to meet with wrath? |
A65296 | So, when we are in the mouth of sin, as of a Lyon, and the Minister by a reproof shoots this sin to death, shall not we be thankful? |
A65296 | Some will say to the godly, why can not you do as others? |
A65296 | Suppose a man were in the mouth of a Lyon, and another should shoot the Lyon and save the man, would not he be thankful? |
A65296 | That I may comfort the smoaking flax, why dost thou thus dispute against thy self? |

A65296 | This is a great mystery, but I speak concerning Christ and the Church: what nearer than union? |
A65296 | This is like the Toad, that converts the most wholsome hearb to poyson; where shall wee finde a grateful Christian? |
A65296 | Thou hast ravished my heart with one of thine eyes; that is, one of thy Graces: Then how illustrious are all the Graces met in a Constellation? |
A65296 | Thou that hast learned all thy postures, who canst cringe, and tack about, how wilt thou look Christ in the face another day? |
A65296 | Thou wouldst fain believe, and mournest that thou canst not believe, are not these tears the Initials of Faith? |
A65296 | Though Prudence be to direct zeal, yet not to destroy it; because sight is requisite, must the body therefore have no heat? |
