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

you_o observe_v the_o perverseness_n of_o man_n heart_n you_o shall_v have_v they_o if_o man_n offend_v the_o law_n of_o man_n they_o that_o be_v in_o authority_n the_o command_v of_o man_n in_o

on_o and_o make_v conscience_n of_o small_a thing_n and_o never_o call_v any_o sin_n little_a because_o you_o have_v hear_v of_o so_o much_o evil_n in_o it_o go_v away_o with_o this_o impression_n of_o the_o evil_a of_o sin_n on_o your_o heart_n well_o by_o this_o i_o have_v hear_v of_o the_o evil_a of_o sin_n i_o have_v learned_a to_o account_v no_o sin_n small_a though_o never_o so_o little_a in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o world_n be_v it_o a_o sin_n if_o so_o do_v thou_o never_o admit_v of_o it_o if_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n abhor_v it_o let_v this_o temptation_n never_o prevail_v with_o thou_o what_o will_v you_o not_o do_v this_o you_o may_v do_v worse_o this_o i_o will_v advise_v those_o gracious_a and_o godly_a that_o do_v indeed_o make_v conscience_n of_o small_a sin_n and_o do_v well_o in_o make_v conscience_n of_o small_a thing_n i_o give_v you_o these_o two_o instruction_n to_o carry_v along_o with_o you_o as_o you_o do_v make_v conscience_n of_o small_a thing_n and_o you_o do_v well_o in_o it_o because_o there_o be_v so_o much_o evil_n in_o sin_n so_o the_o first_o instruction_n be_v sure_a your_o course_n be_v even_o this_o way_n that_o as_o you_o seem_v to_o make_v conscience_n of_o some_o thing_n small_a so_o make_v conscience_n of_o all_o let_v not_o man_n of_o the_o world_n that_o observe_v your_o way_n find_v you_o trip_v and_o have_v just_a cause_n to_o say_v these_o man_n seem_v scrupulous_a in_o small_a thing_n but_o in_o otherways_o they_o give_v liberty_n enough_o to_o themselves_o and_o say_v they_o though_o they_o will_v not_o swear_v they_o will_v lie_v and_o such_o like_a aspersion_n sometime_o through_o malice_n the_o man_n of_o the_o world_n cast_v upon_o profession_n but_o i_o speak_v to_o you_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n take_v heed_n you_o give_v not_o occasion_n to_o the_o man_n of_o the_o world_n to_o say_v so_o to_o say_v i_o these_o be_v so_o scrupulous_a in_o ceremony_n and_o so_o nice_a in_o these_o thing_n though_o certain_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o be_v so_o for_o god_n be_v a_o jealous_a god_n and_o if_o in_o any_o thing_n we_o be_v conscientious_a we_o must_v in_o his_o worship_n be_v conscientious_a there_o but_o than_o you_o have_v need_n be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o careful_a that_o they_o find_v you_o exact_v in_o every_o thing_n that_o you_o do_v you_o servant_n perhaps_o you_o inquire_v after_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n you_o young_a people_n and_o it_o be_v a_o great_a mercy_n of_o god_n that_o god_n stir_v up_o young_a one_o to_o inquire_v after_o the_o true_a worship_n of_o god_n and_o not_o to_o worship_n god_n in_o that_o ignorance_n that_o your_o forefather_n do_v that_o take_v up_o every_o thing_n upon_o custom_n or_o the_o use_n of_o the_o parish_n they_o live_v in_o for_o certain_o it_o be_v not_o the_o practice_n of_o many_o nor_o the_o command_n of_o authority_n can_v make_v it_o lawful_a if_o not_o warrant_v by_o the_o word_n well_o perhaps_o many_o young_a one_o now_o begin_v to_o inquire_v after_o the_o way_n of_o god_n worship_n and_o perhaps_o your_o master_n or_o parent_n or_o may_v be_v husband_n be_v angry_a and_o vex_v and_o wonder_v what_o be_v come_v to_o you_o because_o grow_v so_o scrupulous_a of_o these_o thing_n now_o i_o say_v you_o have_v need_n be_v very_o exact_a in_o your_o master_n family_n that_o you_o may_v not_o be_v find_v trip_v in_o other_o thing_n and_o you_o wife_n have_v need_n be_v very_o exact_a that_o your_o husband_n find_v you_o not_o faulty_a in_o other_o thing_n and_o you_o child_n have_v need_n be_v very_o respectful_a to_o your_o parent_n and_o careful_a of_o your_o duty_n to_o they_o because_o they_o be_v more_o apprehensive_a of_o any_o fail_n in_o that_o which_o be_v due_a to_o they_o than_o they_o be_v of_o any_o thing_n in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n and_o they_o know_v god_n tie_v you_o to_o the_o practice_n of_o those_o duty_n now_o if_o you_o can_v join_v in_o their_o practice_n and_o such_o superstition_n as_o your_o master_n do_v now_o if_o these_o servant_n be_v unfaithful_a in_o service_n and_o carelesss_n and_o stubborn_a and_o stout_a in_o answer_v again_o how_o do_v this_o harden_v their_o master_n against_o this_o way_n of_o worship_n and_o harden_v their_o heart_n against_o they_o what_o you_o make_v conscience_n of_o superstition_n because_o sinful_a and_o be_v not_o this_o sin_n as_o well_o as_o that_o to_o be_v unfaithful_a and_o stubborn_a and_o stout_a if_o you_o make_v conscience_n of_o one_o sin_n why_o not_o of_o another_o therefore_o all_o you_o that_o seem_v to_o have_v more_o tender_a conscience_n than_o other_o and_o more_o afraid_a of_o the_o least_o sin_n than_o other_o be_v sure_a you_o walk_v exact_o and_o especial_o have_v a_o care_n of_o your_o duty_n towards_o man_n with_o who_o you_o walk_v for_o they_o can_v spy_v you_o present_o if_o you_o trip_v a_o second_o instruction_n i_o commend_v to_o those_o that_o make_v conscience_n of_o little_a of_o the_o least_o sin_n be_v this_o be_v sure_o you_o be_v as_o yield_n and_o tractable_a in_o all_o other_o thing_n as_o possible_a you_o may_v in_o all_o thing_n lawful_a i_o ground_n it_o upon_o this_o because_o those_o who_o conscience_n be_v tender_a and_o dare_v not_o commit_v the_o least_o sin_n for_o any_o seem_a good_a they_o can_v but_o stand_v out_o rather_o than_o commit_v some_o evil_n some_o thing_n that_o they_o be_v require_v to_o do_v they_o dare_v not_o do_v because_o sinful_a it_o can_v be_v but_o in_o some_o thing_n they_o must_v stand_v out_o because_o they_o be_v convince_v that_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n now_o this_o the_o world_n judge_n stoutness_n and_o pride_n you_o make_v conscience_n of_o it_o but_o they_o think_v it_o pride_n and_o stoutness_n of_o spirit_n why_o can_v you_o do_v this_o as_o well_o as_o other_o when_o alas_o god_n know_v and_o your_o conscience_n tell_v you_o that_o you_o will_v with_o all_o your_o heart_n but_o can_v you_o
