A67757What Prince hearing himself abused to his face, by the reproachfull words of his base and impotent Subject, would admit of such an excuse?

A3952516. in many Cases where there is but one single Witness, by which the Controversy can be decided?
A3952516. say, For Men verily Swear by the greater, and an Oath for Confirmation is to them an end of all Strife?

A3952534?
A395256?
A395258?
A395259, 10. Who will say, That there is the least Sign of any thing of the nature of an Oath in these Affirmations, or in them words soused?
A395259?
A39525Again, by the same learned and eminent Author on the same Subject; If, therefore, he that Swears hath Faith and Truth; what use is there of an Oath?
A39525And what Christian Men, or Magistrates, or Powers of the Earth, can awfully prescribe or require more than Christ hath permitted herein?
A39525And what is said in the old Testament?
A39525And wherefore do I use it, but to beget a greater Credit to what I say, by making use of his Name that is greater than my self?
A39525But for one to say, My Horse for thine I will do such a thing; who will say that such an one Swears by his Horse?
A39525But to say to a Man, So do thou to me and more also, if I do not such a thing, who will account it an Oath by the Man?
A39525If it was not lawful for all to name God simply; how great Audaciousness is it to call it in witness?
A39525If one should say in Prayer, So help me God, that I may walk in thy ways; here the words[ So help me God] who will say are an Oath?
A39525Or that one Swear by the Man so called?
A39525Ought not one even to dread, when God is named?
A39525Therefore, now, to what purpose is the use of Oaths or Swearing, among those that profess Christianity?
A39525Thou a Worm, Dust and Ashes, and a Vapour, darest thou snatch thy Lord, who art such an one, for a Surety, and compellest to accept him?
A39525What can be said plainer against rising higher, or using any greater Asseveration than Yea, yea; and Nay, nay, instead of Oaths?
A39525Who ever spoke more seriously than our Saviour?
A39525Whom more necessary things?
A39525〈 ◊ 〉 that exceeds all Iniquity and Audaciousness; what then is to be done?
A46774And Swear not Above all things?
A46774And after this rate, what the more satisfaction can you have, when you give Men their Oaths, that they do not make a Lye as well as make Oath?
A46774And how can the King and Queen be sure of such Mens Allegiance, or any one else of their true Testimony or Fidelity to their Promise?
A46774And how can you really serve their Majesties, if you have not a more Awful Regard of the Heavenly Majesty?
A46774And only make themselves merry at the Preachers sober sadness?
A46774And shall the Member, stil''d your Glory, only serve to shame your self, for throwing Dirt with it at your Lord and Master?
A46774And that you are a stout Man, because you dare make so bold( as no one in his right Wits would do) with the Supream Majesty?
A46774And to tye Truth to such Mens Oaths, how fond and senseless is it?
A46774And what Worse Manners can there be, than most rudely to Treat the Noblest Friend and Benefactor we have in the World?
A46774And who can ever do wiser and nobler, than to take the Excellent Way which leads to that Blessed End?
A46774And yet if you are a Swearer, pray what considering Man will you ever induce to believe that you are no Lyar?
A46774But how can it in truth deserve the name of Good- Breeding, that does not so much as teach Good Manners?
A46774But how easie is it, Sir, to shew you A more excellent Way?
A46774But think you not that he could Command the Earth to open her Jaws, and take the Swearers down quick into Hell, as once it did Corah and his Crew?
A46774Can it become your Dignity, or ever be be reckon''d as any of your Bravery?
A46774Do but think with your self, Sir, what an unpardonable Affront would such a one as you account it, to be call''d a Bastard?
A46774Do you think to Convert Dissenters with your hairbrain''d Swearing and Damning?
A46774For how can you sincerely Love your Country, when you Patronize the cursedthing that bodes nothing but its Ruine?
A46774For how many Leviathans are there that laugh at the shaking of all our Spears?
A46774For in Conscience, Sir, what better Name than Hypocrite belongs to him that takes on him to be what he is not, yea what really he hates to be?
A46774For what should make him strain so much at a Lye, who has so glib a Swallow for Oath upon Oath?
A46774Has any Gentleman, think you, a Licence to make bolder with God than his poorest inferior should?
A46774How low then must be our hopes of a Blessing upon the Service of such Miscreants?
A46774How many hardned Hearts, that like Anvils, beat back every stroke in our Faces?
A46774How much does it concern you to consider this betimes, all ye that so Forget God, and your selves?
A46774How worthy then of the best Gentlemans Ambition?
A46774Next as a Magistrate; Are you not obliged, Sir, to Check and Punish this very thing, which your self have been so deep in the guilt of?
A46774Now does not the rudest Swearer and most scandalous Liver among us, own himself a Christian?
A46774Now, Sir, will you cry, Damn him, he Preaches Damnation?
A46774Or think you not, that he could Rain a Hell down even from Heaven, as he did on Sodom, and the Cities of the Plain?
A46774Or to invite them into our Holy Communion, with such leud Communication?
A46774Or what if it should be never so Highly Esteemed among Men, when''t is Abomination in the sight of God?
A46774Such as they so reflect on themselves, and oblige the Barking Priest with a Palinode?
A46774Such, you know, God is said to Resist; and if Omnipotence set it self against a Leaf; alas, what can all its Rustling do?
A46774To feed on the coursest Fare, or filthyest Trash, and Carrion it self, how base and unworthy your Quality would you account it?
A46774Were such assuming Wickedness Recommendation enough for a Gentleman, How cheap a thing would Gentility be?
A46774What Supporters then are they of the Throne, who think still to testify their Loyalty by the most prophane Extravagancy?
A46774What do you think of the Dissimulation and Hypocrysie of Godly Cheats?
A46774What hath he ever done to you, that you should so fly upon him?
A46774What sort of Christian is that, who acts as''t were in spight of Christ?
A46774What, no more but my Brethren?
A46774Who will stand up for me against the Workers of Iniquity?
A46774Why is that the Worst Thing you can name?
A46774and close up all the damning, with damning the Bedlam Humour it self?
A46774he shall perish for ever like his own Dung; they that have seen him shall say, where is he?
A46774to Lard every Sentence with an Oath, or a Curse?
A46774what is it then to Despise the Great God himself?
A67779& never give a reckoning for our wicked swearing and cursing?
A67779And do you make it a small matter to forsake God, and make a God of the Creature?
A67779And in reason, Hath God done so much for us, and shall we deny him any thing he requireth of us?
A67779And indeed, what fence for a pistol charged with the bullet of friendship?
A67779And indeed, who shall go to Hell, if Cursers should be left out?
A67779And indeed, whom can you observe to love this sin, or to have their mouths full of cursing, but Ruffian ▪ and sons of Belial?
A67779And indeed, why should not Gods servants take as free liberty in reproving, as the Devils servants take liberty in offending?
A67779And no marvel, for what Leper will take pleasure in the searching of his sores?
A67779And shall we deny this Lord that hath bought us?
A67779And tell me, Were it a good plea, to commit a Fel ● ny, and say that others do so?
A67779And this God takes as done to himself; What saith Paul?
A67779And what a shame is it, that our God should not have as faithful servants, as he hath unfaithful enemies?
A67779And what though their case be not onely desperate, but almo ● ● hopeless?
A67779And what though we can not do what we would?
A67779And whence do these Monsters of the earth, these hellish miscreants, these bodily and visible devils learn this their damnable cursing and swearing?
A67779And who makes the difference of Wills, but God that made them?
A67779Are not their tongues fired and edged from Hell?
A67779Are we come without the Lord?
A67779Are you willing to be saved?
A67779As what is light to them that will shut their eyes against it?
A67779As what saies Basil, Shall we speak to drunkards?
A67779As who by looking in a Glass shall spy spots in his face, and will not forth with wipe them out?
A67779Besides, how frequently dost thou pollute and profane Gods Name, and thy Saviours?
A67779Besides, why dost thou curse thine enemy?
A67779But in this case, Who are you angry withal?
A67779But this is not one half of thine offence, For whom dost thou curse?
A67779But what are these men like, and how are they like to speed in the end?
A67779But what do I urge reason to men of a reprobate judgment?
A67779Did I swear or curse?
A67779Did they not( many of them) live to see their City buried in ashes, and drowned in bloud?
A67779Did you ever know that wicked men, thieves, drunkards, adulterers, persecuters, false prophets, or the like, would be damned alone?
A67779Does your horse, the dice, the rain, or any other creature displease you?
A67779For as none but a Cain will say, Am I my brothers keeper?
A67779How much more will wicked men decline from seeing their hainous abominations, and themselves guilty of Hell, and eternal damnation?
A67779How shall I spare thee for this?
A67779Or if he do, will not the Judge so much the rather send him to the Gallows?
A67779Or wilt thou leap into Hell, and cast away thy soul, because others do so?
A67779Shall not the one be as loud for God, as the other are for Baal and Beelzebub?
A67779Sixteen hundred years are now past, since they wished themselves thus wretched: and have they not ever since been the hate and scorn of the world?
A67779The Jews said, Let his bloud be upon us, and upon our children; and what followed?
A67779Was there ever any people under heaven, that was made so famous a spectacle of misery and desolation?
A67779What will be the issue?
