A91363	A little cabinet richly stored with all sorts of heavenly varieties, and soul-reviving influences. Wherein there is a remedy for every malady, viz. milk for babes, and meat for strong men, and the ready way for both to obtain and retain assurance of salvation: being an abridgement of the sum and substance of the true Christian religion; wherein the cause of our salvation, the way, the guide, the rule, the evidence, the seals, &c. and the connection of these points together, and dependancy of them one upon another: this I have endeavoured to do orderly, exactly, methodically, with much plainness and clearness. / By Robert Purnell.

christ_n and_o thou_o shall_v be_v save_v now_o may_v not_o the_o jailor_n have_v reply_v as_o many_o do_v now_o in_o our_o day_n and_o say_v i_o can_v as_o well_o make_v a_o world_n work_v miracle_n overturn_v mountain_n as_o believe_v by_o my_o own_o power_n therefore_o paul_n and_o silas_n why_o bid_v you_o i_o believe_v to_o this_o i_o answer_v though_o it_o be_v true_a that_o every_o commard_n of_o god_n be_v alike_o difficult_a to_o flesh_n and_o blood_n that_o a_o man_n can_v indeed_o as_o well_o make_v a_o world_n as_o make_v a_o prayer_n aright_o a_o man_n may_v as_o well_o subdue_v a_o army_n of_o man_n as_o subdue_v one_o lust_n do_v not_o the_o lord_n convey_v a_o power_n into_o the_o soul_n together_o with_o the_o command_n viz._n if_o god_n command_v a_o man_n to_o believe_v and_o give_v he_o power_n to_o believe_v the_o work_n will_v soon_o be_v do_v ezek._n 36._o the_o lord_n command_v to_o make_v a_o new_a heart_n now_o a_o man_n be_v no_o more_o able_a to_o make_v a_o new_a heart_n then_o to_o make_v a_o new_a world_n therefore_o as_o we_o say_v before_o he_o promise_v in_o the_o same_o place_n to_o give_v a_o new_a heart_n and_o in_o another_o place_n it_o be_v say_v mortify_v your_o lust_n now_o this_o a_o man_n can_v do_v of_o himself_o but_o the_o same_o god_n that_o command_v we_o to_o kill_v our_o lust_n will_v kill_v they_o for_o we_o micah_n 7._o 18_o 19_o he_o will_v subdue_v our_o iniquity_n and_o thou_o will_v cast_v all_o their_o sin_n into_o the_o depth_n of_o the_o sea_n again_o god_n command_v we_o to_o repen●_n but_o we_o be_v no_o more_o able_a to_o repent_v or_o to_o shed_v one_o tear_n for_o sin_n then_o a_o rock_n be_v to_o give_v out_o water_n or_o we_o be_v no_o more_o able_a to_o repent_v then_o to_o turn_v the_o stream_n or_o to_o make_v a_o slint_n flesh_n till_o the_o lord_n give_v we_o a_o repent_a heart_n he_o have_v promise_v to_o give_v repentance_n to_o his_o people_n so_o that_o the_o command_n in_o scripture_n do_v not_o show_v what_o the_o creature_n can_v do_v but_o what_o he_o shall_v do_v yet_o not_o by_o our_o own_o natural_a power_n but_o by_o his_o assist_a grace_n to_o enable_v we_o to_o do_v what_o of_o ourselves_o we_o can_v do_v therefore_o we_o shall_v pray_v with_o saint_n augustine_n lord_n give_v what_o thou_o command_v and_o then_o command_v what_o thou_o please_v to_o draw_v towards_o a_o conclusion_n to_o this_o point_n let_v i_o acquaint_v the_o reader_n of_o what_o i_o have_v observe_v among_o all_o sort_n of_o man_n with_o who_o i_o have_v more_o or_o less_o converse_v viz._n first_o the_o papist_n both_o in_o their_o writing_n and_o discourse_n cry_v up_o and_o press_v all_o people_n to_o be_v do_v good_a work_n the_o arminian_n his_o cousin_n jerman_n plead_v for_o the_o same_o and_o that_o almost_o if_o not_o altogether_o from_o the_o same_o principle_n to_o the_o same_o end_n the_o new_a upstart_n quaker_n fall_v in_o and_o close_v with_o these_o old_a error_n press_v people_n to_o do_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v command_v but_o not_o as_o it_o be_v command_v so_o many_o of_o our_o brethren_n of_o the_o presbyterian_a party_n be_v in_o and_o under_o a_o spirit_n of_o bondage_n themselves_o preach_v the_o law_n before_o the_o gospel_n and_o put_v their_o hearer_n to_o act_v for_o life_n but_o not_o from_o life_n so_o also_o our_o brethren_n of_o the_o independent_a party_n and_o those_o of_o the_o baptist_n party_n many_o of_o they_o to_o my_o own_o knowledge_n do_v more_o mind_v the_o thing_n they_o do_v for_o god_n in_o

do_v it_o even_o these_o also_o be_v apt_a to_o lay_v too_o great_a a_o stress_n upon_o it_o so_o then_o the_o papist_n freewiller_n quaker_n presbyterian_a independent_a baptist_n all_o these_o preach_v teach_v and_o cry_v out_o to_o all_o their_o hearer_n for_o a_o holy_a conversation_n nay_o to_o come_v a_o little_o near_a home_n the_o word_n of_o god_n call_v upon_o we_o for_o it_o our_o own_o conscience_n call_v for_o it_o and_o check_v we_o for_o our_o remissness_n therein_o nay_o the_o christian_n with_o who_o we_o converse_v expect_v it_o from_o we_o what_o remain_v then_o but_o that_o we_o be_v find_v in_o the_o practice_n of_o it_o but_o let_v we_o beware_v we_o rest_v not_o upon_o it_o for_o as_o we_o be_v not_o to_o conclude_v our_o justification_n from_o any_o effect_n of_o sanctification_n so_o we_o be_v not_o to_o conclude_v that_o apprehension_n of_o justification_n to_o be_v from_o god_n which_o take_v we_o off_o the_o mean_n way_n and_o rule_n of_o
