A51487 Aug. 7: 1670. A most useful sermon preached in London, By a most worthy and faithfhl [sic] minsiter and servant of Jesus Christs, most learnedly pressed from Amos 8. 11. ... From which text of scripture, he learnedly shews the dreadful and deplorable condition of that kingdom which a famine of the word of the Lord seizes upon; and further shews, that they are the greatest felons who would rob us of the word of God, and that there is more justice in hell then is here upon earth, for in hell they do not punnish the innocent 1671 (1671) Wing M2931BA; ESTC R213887 17,302 48

or_o water_n but_o of_o hear_v of_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n the_o word_n thus_o open_v into_o these_o several_a part_n they_o yield_v we_o these_o four_o proposition_n or_o doctrine_n 1._o it_o do_v show_v that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v to_o the_o soul_n as_o food_n to_o the_o body_n for_o strengthen_v and_o refresh_v of_o it_o and_o that_o be_v imply_v in_o job_n 23.12_o i_o esteem_v the_o word_n of_o thy_o mouth_n as_o my_o necessary_a food_n they_o be_v my_o food_n that_o my_o soul_n feed_v upon_o 2._o the_o second_o doctrine_n be_v this_o when_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v despise_v or_o oppose_v it_o be_v just_a with_o the_o lord_n to_o take_v it_o away_o from_o a_o people_n 3._o the_o three_o doctrine_n be_v this_o the_o take_v away_o of_o the_o word_n be_v the_o begin_n of_o a_o spiritual_a famine_n and_o 4._o that_o a_o famine_n of_o the_o word_n be_v far_o worse_a than_o a_o famine_n of_o bread_n a_o famine_n i_o will_v send_v say_v god_n not_o of_o bread_n nor_o of_o thirst_n for_o water_n but_o which_o be_v worse_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n the_o famine_n of_o the_o word_n be_v worse_a than_o a_o famine_n of_o bread_n next_o to_o damn_v of_o a_o soul_n what_o can_v be_v worse_o than_o starve_v of_o it_o bodily_a famine_n be_v very_o sad_a much_o more_o spiritual_a famine_n i_o shall_v speak_v a_o little_a of_o bodily_a famine_n that_o will_v set_v off_o the_o other_o the_o more_o famine_n be_v that_o withdraw_a of_o a_o necessary_a recruit_v of_o nature_n famine_n be_v the_o withhold_a of_o that_o oil_n which_o shall_v be_v pour_v into_o the_o lamp_n of_o man_n life_n famine_n and_o death_n be_v such_o as_o you_o see_v a_o picture_n they_o both_o bring_v the_o body_n into_o a_o anatomy_n see_v a_o description_n of_o a_o famine_n in_o jer._n 14.3_o their_o noble_n have_v send_v their_o little_a one_o to_o the_o water_n they_o come_v to_o the_o pit_n and_o find_v no_o water_n they_o be_v ashamed_a and_o confound_v and_o cover_v their_o head_n it_o be_v a_o very_a unusual_a sight_n to_o see_v noble_a man_n child_n tanckard-bearer_n the_o noble_n send_v their_o child_n but_o find_v no_o water_n famine_n of_o the_o body_n be_v worse_a than_o the_o sword_n be_v and_o that_o in_o these_o three_o respect_n 1._o the_o sword_n cut_v off_o sudden_o it_o make_v a_o quick_a dispatch_n now_o famine_n make_v you_o die_v a_o linger_a death_n lam._n 4.9_o those_o pine_n away_o strike_v through_o for_o want_n of_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o field_n they_o pine_v away_o famine_n will_v neither_o let_v a_o man_n live_v nor_o yet_o suffer_v he_o to_o die_v he_o that_o be_v in_o famine_n may_v say_v as_o st._n paul_n in_o death_n oft_o how_o many_o death_n do_v he_o die_v before_o he_o die_v 2._o famine_n be_v universal_a it_o reach_v more_o than_o the_o
