Darkness and Temptation 87 If thy Heart fail thee in Distress look to Christ for strength and supply of Comfort 88 The virtue of Christ's Death never dieth but flows down to all Ages for ever 89 God hath appointed that where the Cross is there is the Cordial against it 90 Divine Love is the cause of Divine Beauty and rejoyces in its own worth 91 The Beauty of the Soul is the Holiness of it being God's Image 92 Christ hath the Truth and Essence of Beauty whereas Earthly things have it only in Estimation 93 The unquiet Brains of many being tossed with Opinions ought to rest in the Scripture as a Bed 94 Our Sins are Thorns so are Temptations to Sin and Affliction for Sin 95 Heresies and Schisms are worse than Briars and Thorns to the Church 96 As weary Travellers seek for cool Arbours and delight in them so doth the weary Soul after and in Christ 97 It is neither loss nor dishonour to be vanquished in the Field where Christ is General for at last we shall be Conquerors 98 They are happy beyond expression who are transfixed with the Wounds of Christ 99 It is God's due and our Duty to give God our Morning-Thoughts first and to be in his Fear all the Day 100 All Holy Duties call upon us all for a Holy Preparation CHAP. III. 1 IT no ways befits Christians to lye down and stretch themselves in sinful Pleasures 2 The Elect on Earth have three degrees of Glory before they came to the full fruition in Heaven after Conversion after Death and after Judgment then full 3 A Holy Conversation makes Grace visible to the World and more Comfort to the Believer himself 4 Parents may put Money in their Childrens Pockets but they cannot put Grace in their Hearts yet to train them up in the Fear of the Lord. 5 And their Care to them ought to be as long as their Children and they live together 6 And Children when grown in years must not think they have out-grown Obedience to their Parents 7 And such Parents as think to make their Children great and not good in this World may suspect themselves to be the Devil's Children 8 And the special Care of a holy Father is so the Soul of his Child 9 Moderate Refreshing and Recreation may well become Holy Men. 10 Grace is very active it desires to draw many into fellowship with it self 11 God doth not only please the Creature but pleaseth himself when he sheweth Mercy 12 The industrious Man hath no time to sin the idle Man lyes open to its Snares 13 He is a happy Man that finds a true Friend in the time of extremity but he is a happier Man that hath no extremity to try his Friend 14 Better carry our selves that the World hate and God smile than that God frown and the World smile 15 There is a time coming when Ungodliness shall be as much prosecuted by Justice as in times past Godliness hath been persecuted by Injustice 16 They can but faintly make God known to others who are not acquainted with God themselves and to teach Christ to others who have not learn'd him themselves 17 Whoever brings Mercy in need both the Mercy and the Bringer are of God's sending Good Samaritan 18 God will stain the Pride of all Carnal Glory for indeed all Pride would stain his Glory 19 It is not Man's Free Will but God's Free Grace which makes one Man differ from another in Goodness 20 I am sure there is more of the Dew of Heaven upon a mortified Christian than on the Worldling in all his Pleasures Haman 21 The Faults of Holy Men in Scripture should teach us rather to fear than boldness to sin 22 The Devil doth not nay cannot hate a Saint so much as God loves him 23 It usually falls out that they who seek others Destruction find their own Pharaoh 24 They do not faithfully Love who love not Faithfulness 25 They who are most with God in secret know most of God's Secrets for he is most with them that fear him 26 The Lord's Portion is his People and the Lord is his People's Portion 27 While Saints are on Earth Christ is preparing Heaven for them and them for Heaven 28 We may well wait for the Lord's Grace since the Lord waits to be gracious 29 The Saints have more Comfort from God's Love to them than they have from their Love to God 30 For it is seldom that the Duty sanctifies us unless we labour to be sanctified for the Duty 31 Of old they offered up a Beast in Sacrifices but now God takes Obedience for a better 32 In Trouble we reckon it some Joy to get a faithful Friend to tell our Mind to O then doth not Experience bid the Godly call on him in the day of trouble and he will deliver them 33 God in the Sacrament sees the Death of his Son and that satisfies him and the Godly see the Death of their Saviour and that sanctifies them 34 Acting of Faith and pouring out of Prayers makes Sacraments effectual to Men and acceptable to God 35 Christ was ever and is and shall be the only Remedy for Sin 36 Usually where God gives much Grace he tries Grace much 37 A Man that hath got an Interest in Christ will be thirsting till he come to that bottomless Ocean of God's Love to him where he shall never thirst more to Eternity 38 Adam tho' Lord of the whole Earth was commanded to Work O then let us fly Idleness for it is like a Shop for the Devil to tread in or his Baggage-Horses 39 Dinah went idly to see the Daughters of the Land and lost her Virginity and was occasion of much Blood-shed a whole City being killed and made her old Father Jacob stink among the Inhabitants 40 Carnal Pleasures wither in using but Spiritual becomes fresh and green 41. A holy Soul longs to be uncloathed and lives not in it self but in Christ in whom its Life is hid 42 To be without gross Sin is our Holiness on Earth to be without any Sin is the Holiness of Heaven 43 He that repents of those Sins he fears he has committed shall be sure to repent of those Sins he doth commit 44 For a Man to bless God in his reigning Sins resolving to continue in them is a very spreading Deceit 45 Christ denied himself for us and left Heaven to redeem us and therefore we should deny our selves for him 46 Saints have sometimes in this Life enough to say It is good to be here but never enough to say It is best to be here 47 A Saint should welcom God when he comes to take as well as when he comes to give 48 God loves his People as well when he strikes them as when he stroaks them 49 That Man hath nothing who wants Christ and that Man who hath Christ wants nothing 50 God hath promised to keep his People and he will keep his Promise I will keep
