A81056	Samson a type of Christ in a sermon preached at Mr. Pomfret's meeting-house in Gravel-lane near Hounds-ditch, London: at the morning-lecture, on July 22. 1691. from Judg. xiv.5. Then went Samson down, and his father and his mother, to Tunnath; and came to the vineyards of Timnath; and behold, a young lion roared against him. Wherein is shewed, I. In six particulars, how clearly Samson doth type forth Jesus Christ, ... II. With respect unto Samsons marriage, ... III. As Samson loved and married an uncircumcised woman, ... IV. As Samson did overcome the young lion which opposed him: so Jesus Christ doth overcome and destroy that roaring lion, the Devil, that opposeth him. Published at the request of the Congregation, for Publick Good. By D.C. an unworthy servant of Christ.	Crosley, David, 1670-1744.	1691 (1691)	Wing C7247A; ESTC R232725	34,097	40

from_o god_n yet_o there_o be_v a_o time_n wherein_o he_o will_v gather_v and_o call_v they_o all_o home_n to_o himself_o there_o be_v a_o time_n in_o which_o samson_n go_v down_o to_o timnath_n to_o

there_o be_v a_o time_n for_o every_o one_o of_o god_n jewel_n to_o be_v gather_v into_o his_o treasure_n and_o for_o every_o one_o of_o his_o sheep_n to_o be_v bring_v into_o his_o fold_n though_o

day_n have_v undoubted_o be_v a_o great_a occasion_n of_o so_o much_o lukewarmness_n in_o the_o world_n in_o matter_n of_o religion_n but_o i_o come_v to_o the_o three_o particular_a viz._n to_o mention_v some_o of_o the_o great_a let_n hindrance_n and_o impediment_n which_o do_v most_o interrupt_v this_o bless_a union_n and_o agreement_n betwixt_o christ_n and_o his_o church_n which_o indeed_o be_v many_o but_o time_n will_v but_o permit_v i_o to_o mention_v some_o few_o and_o the_o first_o main_n let_v or_o hindrance_n be_v the_o want_n of_o a_o thorough_a sight_n and_o a_o true_a sense_n of_o the_o miserableness_n of_o the_o condition_n in_o which_o we_o be_v by_o nature_n and_o according_o a_o enjoyment_n of_o rest_n and_o satisfaction_n though_o both_o false_a and_o soul-destructive_a in_o that_o condition_n and_o thus_o much_o even_a nature_n itself_o teach_v that_o no_o man_n will_v seek_v unto_o a_o physician_n for_o a_o cure_n unless_o he_o be_v first_o sensible_a that_o he_o be_v trouble_v with_o such_o a_o distemper_n as_o do_v necessary_o call_v for_o and_o require_v such_o a_o cure_n and_o who_o know_v not_o that_o even_o the_o best_a of_o we_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o ready_a and_o forward_o to_o incline_v to_o and_o seek_v after_o the_o benefit_n and_o cure_n of_o the_o body_n than_o the_o benefit_n and_o cure_n of_o the_o soul_n insomuch_o that_o a_o man_n of_o who_o i_o have_v hear_v who_o desert_v and_o forsake_v the_o work_n of_o the_o ministry_n in_o which_o he_o have_v spend_v much_o labour_n and_o travel_n to_o take_v up_o the_o practice_n of_o physic_n and_o be_v ask_v the_o reason_n why_o he_o return_v this_o answer_n because_o say_v he_o i_o see_v people_n be_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o careful_a of_o their_o body_n than_o of_o their_o soul_n and_o much_o more_o free_a to_o lay_v out_o their_o money_n and_o pain_n for_o the_o one_o than_o the_o other_o and_o christ_n himself_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o whole_a need_v not_o a_o physician_n but_o they_o that_o be_v sick_a the_o reason_n therefore_o why_o christ_n our_o great_a physician_n of_o soul_n be_v so_o much_o slight_v be_v because_o so_o few_o be_v sensible_a of_o their_o soul_n malady_n and_o distemper_n and_o the_o case_n be_v the_o same_o in_o the_o point_n in_o hand_n for_o the_o main_a reason_n why_o poor_a sinner_n be_v no_o more_o free_a to_o change_v their_o estate_n to_o forsake_v their_o first_o husband_n viz._n the_o devil_n and_o the_o world_n and_o to_o be_v join_v and_o marry_v to_o jesus_n christ_n be_v because_o they_o see_v not_o the_o danger_n and_o misery_n which_o they_o lie_v in_o and_o under_o in_o the_o condition_n in_o which_o they_o be_v a_o second_o let_v or_o hindrance_n in_o this_o matter_n be_v person_n be_v so_o much_o in_o love_n with_o their_o present_a state_n and_o the_o pleasure_n and_o profit_n which_o as_o they_o suppose_v they_o enjoy_v therein_o for_o the_o proof_n of_o this_o see_v that_o place_n in_o matth._n 22._o at_o the_o beginning_n where_o the_o text_n tell_v we_o that_o a_o great_a king_n i._n e._n god_n make_v a_o marriage_n for_o his_o son_n i.e._n christ_n and_o send_v
