A77976	The eighth book of Mr Jeremiah Burroughs. Being a treatise of the evil of evils, or the exceeding sinfulness of sin. Wherein is shewed, 1 There is more evil in the least sin, than there is in the greatest affliction. 2 Sin is most opposite to God. 3 Sin is most opposite to mans good. 4 Sin is opposite to all good in general. 5 Sin is the poyson, or evil of all other evils. 6 Sin hath a kind of infiniteness in it. 7 Sin makes a man conformable to the Devil. All these several heads are branched out into very many particulars. / Published by Thomas Goodwyn, William Bridge, Sydrach Sympson, William Adderly, [double brace] William Greenhil, Philip Nye, John Yates.	Burroughs, Jeremiah, 1599-1646.; Goodwin, Thomas, 1600-1680.	1654 (1654)	Wing B6063; Thomason E819_1; ESTC R207405	254,421	485

be_v those_o that_o in_o hear_v tremble_v and_o believe_v and_o do_v not_o come_v to_o know_v by_o experience_n that_o dreadful_a evil_n in_o they_o if_o god_n shall_v in_o his_o infinite_a wisdom_n have_v study_v as_o one_o may_v so_o speak_v from_o all_o eternity_n to_o have_v find_v out_o a_o way_n to_o have_v present_v sin_n to_o be_v dreadful_a to_o the_o child_n of_o man_n we_o can_v not_o conceive_v how_o infinite_a wisdom_n shall_v from_o all_o eternity_n have_v find_v out_o a_o argument_n to_o manifest_v the_o evil_n of_o sin_n more_o or_o so_o much_o as_o in_o the_o suffering_n of_o

argument_n i_o will_v have_v one_o that_o if_o possible_a shall_v convince_v all_o wicked_a hard_a heart_n in_o the_o world_n to_o make_v they_o see_v what_o sin_n be_v and_o that_o be_v in_o my_o son_n in_o my_o deal_n with_o my_o son_n and_o that_o wrath_n of_o i_o i_o shall_v lay_v upon_o my_o son_n this_o shall_v make_v it_o appear_v to_o they_o what_o sin_n be_v now_o if_o god_n have_v do_v this_o on_o purpose_n to_o render_v sin_n odious_a and_o abominable_a and_o a_o most_o dreadful_a evil_n oh_o woe_n then_o to_o that_o soul_n that_o after_o all_o this_o shall_v go_v on_o in_o way_n of_o sin_n pleas_o and_o delightful_o and_o easy_o entertain_v sin_n the_o second_o part_n of_o this_o treatise_n sin_n be_v most_o opposite_a to_o man_n good_a and_o far_o more_o opposite_a to_o the_o good_a of_o man_n than_o affliction_n it_o may_v be_v by_o all_o that_o have_v be_v say_v of_o sin_n be_v against_o god_n the_o heart_n of_o some_o at_o least_o may_v not_o be_v so_o much_o as_o turn_v therefore_o now_o we_o come_v to_o show_v how_o sin_n be_v against_o the_o good_a of_o man_n not_o only_o against_o god_n but_o against_o ourselves_o certain_o brethren_n sin_n make_v the_o sinner_n to_o be_v in_o a_o evil_a case_n from_o that_o which_o have_v be_v say_v we_o may_v conclude_v that_o of_o a_o truth_n a_o sinner_n a_o wicked_a man_n or_o woman_n must_v needs_o be_v in_o a_o evil_a case_n this_o be_v the_o subject_n which_o i_o be_o to_o open_v what_o a_o evil_a case_n sin_n bring_v ourselves_o into_o and_o thereby_o we_o shall_v see_v that_o sin_n be_v a_o great_a evil_n than_o affliction_n though_o we_o have_v spend_v divers_a exercise_n upon_o this_o yet_o it_o be_v as_o various_a as_o if_o we_o have_v several_a text_n now_o this_o be_v the_o argument_n to_o demonstrate_v that_o a_o sinner_n do_v not_o only_o dishonour_v and_o strike_v at_o god_n but_o sin_n be_v against_o his_o own_o soul_n against_o his_o own_o life_n against_o his_o own_o peace_n and_o comfort_n against_o his_o own_o happiness_n he_o do_v undo_v himself_o by_o sin_n this_o be_v that_o which_o i_o be_o now_o to_o declare_v to_o you_o and_o for_o the_o open_n of_o this_o divers_a particular_n offer_v themselves_o to_o be_v handle_v chap._n xxiv_o first_o sin_n make_v a_o man_n evil_a but_o no_o affliction_n can_v make_v he_o so_o 1_o those_o that_o be_v in_o affliction_n be_v not_o the_o worse_o 2_o but_o those_o that_o be_v wicked_a be_v vile_a person_n though_o they_o be_v the_o great_a prince_n first_o more_o general_o thus_o sin_n be_v against_o man_n more_o than_o any_o affliction_n for_o first_o sin_n make_v a_o man_n to_o be_v evil_a no_o affliction_n make_v he_o to_o be_v evil_a but_o only_a sin_n i_o beseech_v you_o observe_v it_o a_o man_n or_o woman_n be_v not_o a_o worse_a man_n or_o woman_n because_o afflict_a not_o worse_a than_o they_o be_v before_o but_o sin_n make_v the_o man_n or_o the_o woman_n to_o be_v worse_o and_o there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n in_o this_o to_o show_v the_o evil_a of_o sin_n to_o be_v beyond_o the_o evil_n of_o affliction_n take_v a_o man_n that_o be_v never_o so_o sore_o afflict_v suppose_v the_o affliction_n to_o be_v as_o grievous_a as_o the_o affliction_n of_o job_n suppose_v a_o man_n scrape_v off_o his_o sore_n upon_o the_o dunghill_n as_o job_n do_v this_o affliction_n make_v he_o not_o a_o worse_a man_n than_o he_o be_v before_o only_o it_o may_v occasion_v sin_n sometime_o and_o so_o make_v he_o worse_o but_o take_v job_n consider_v in_o his_o affliction_n only_o and_o he_o be_v not_o a_o worse_a man_n than_o in_o the_o great_a prosperity_n when_o the_o candle_n of_o the_o lord_n shine_v upon_o he_o and_o all_o his_o part_n only_o it_o occasion_v some_o sin_n in_o job_n otherwise_o he_o have_v not_o be_v the_o worse_a and_o in_o conclusion_n he_o be_v not_o the_o worse_o for_o as_o it_o occasion_v some_o sin_n so_o it_o stir_v up_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o grace_n as_o the_o apostle_n say_v 1_o cor._n 8._o 8_o 9_o for_o neither_o if_o we_o eat_v be_v we_o the_o better_a neither_o if_o we_o eat_v not_o be_v we_o the_o worse_o so_o i_o may_v say_v of_o all_o outward_a thing_n in_o the_o world_n if_o a_o man_n have_v riches_n it_o make_v he_o not_o the_o better_a if_o he_o be_v in_o poverty_n it_o make_v he_o not_o the_o worse_o if_o he_o have_v honour_n he_o be_v not_o better_o if_o disgrace_n he_o be_v not_o worse_o his_o condition_n may_v be_v worse_o but_o himself_o not_o at_o all_o the_o worse_o therefore_o you_o shall_v observe_v it_o that_o when_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o god_n people_n afflict_v yet_o it_o speak_v of_o they_o as_o most_o honourable_a and_o in_o a_o most_o excellent_a condition_n notwithstanding_o their_o affliction_n but_o when_o it_o speak_v of_o some_o in_o great_a prosperity_n but_o wicked_a it_o speak_v of_o they_o as_o most_o contemptible_a and_o vile_a i_o will_v give_v you_o a_o example_n of_o each_o the_o most_o remarkable_a in_o all_o the_o book_n of_o god_n 1_o those_o that_o be_v most_o sore_o afflict_v yet_o to_o show_v that_o they_o be_v not_o the_o worse_a for_o their_o affliction_n see_v the_o 11._o heb._n 36_o 37_o 38._o verse_n i_o suppose_v you_o that_o be_v acquaint_v with_o the_o word_n of_o god_n know_v the_o story_n that_o the_o christian_n go_v up_o and_o down_o the_o world_n in_o sheep_n skin_n and_o goat_n skin_n persecute_v and_o afflict_a and_o dwell_v in_o the_o cave_n of_o the_o earth_n they_o have_v trial_n of_o cruel_a mock_n and_o scourge_n yea_o moreover_o of_o band_n and_o imprisonment_n they_o be_v stone_v they_o be_v saw_v asunder_o be_v tempt_v be_v slay_v with_o the_o sword_n they_o wander_v about_o in_o sheep_n skin_n and_o goat_n skin_n be_v destitute_a afflict_a torment_v what_o can_v be_v say_v be_v more_o of_o affliction_n if_o affliction_n can_v make_v a_o man_n miserable_a sure_o these_o must_v needs_o be_v miserable_a they_o be_v mock_v and_o flout_v and_o make_v the_o offscouring_a of_o the_o world_n drive_v from_o house_n and_o home_n and_o go_v in_o sheep_n skin_n and_o goat_n skin_n many_o think_v themselves_o miserable_a if_o they_o can_v go_v fine_a and_o brave_a these_o go_v in_o sheep_n skin_n and_o goat_n skin_n and_o be_v sawen_v asunder_o miserable_o torment_v and_o afflict_a it_o may_v be_v some_o will_v say_v certain_o these_o be_v in_o a_o most_o miserable_a condition_n now_o mark_v the_o next_o word_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n of_o who_o the_o world_n be_v not_o worthy_a they_o be_v under_o such_o sore_a affliction_n and_o yet_o they_o be_v such_o excellent_a person_n as_o the_o world_n be_v not_o worthy_a of_o they_o in_o their_o worst_a condition_n they_o be_v so_o excellent_a that_o the_o world_n be_v not_o worthy_a of_o they_o they_o be_v think_v to_o be_v such_o as_o be_v not_o worthy_a to_o live_v in_o the_o world_n thus_o the_o evil_a world_n think_v of_o they_o but_o mark_v the_o difference_n of_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n from_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o world_n the_o world_n think_v they_o be_v so_o vile_a that_o they_o be_v not_o worthy_a to_o live_v in_o the_o world_n and_o god_n think_v they_o be_v so_o excellent_a that_o the_o world_n be_v not_o worthy_a that_o they_o shall_v live_v among_o they_o i_o remember_v chrysostom_n have_v this_o upon_o it_o that_o they_o be_v so_o excellent_a as_o all_o the_o man_n in_o the_o world_n be_v not_o worth_a one_o of_o they_o put_v all_o the_o other_o man_n in_o the_o world_n together_o and_o they_o be_v not_o

you_o that_o sin_n be_v worse_a than_o affliction_n first_o i_o have_v show_v that_o there_o be_v no_o good_a at_o all_o in_o sin_n and_o there_o be_v good_a in_o affliction_n now_o second_o there_o be_v more_o evil_a in_o the_o least_o sin_n than_o there_o be_v in_o the_o great_a affliction_n this_o i_o be_o now_o to_o make_v out_o unto_o you_o in_o these_o six_o particular_n first_o sin_n be_v most_o opposite_a unto_o god_n himself_o the_o chief_a good_n second_o sin_n be_v most_o opposite_a unto_o man_n good_a affliction_n be_v not_o so_o opposite_a to_o the_o good_a of_o the_o creature_n

of_o sin_n be_v so_o opposite_a to_o god_n that_o there_o be_v nothing_o so_o contrary_a to_o he_o as_o sin_n god_n have_v nothing_o but_o sin_n contrary_a to_o he_o take_v it_o so●_n therefore_o it_o
