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

fifty_o thousand_o be_v slay_v present_o this_o be_v the_o displeasure_n of_o god_n against_o sin_n though_o very_o small_a to_o our_o thought_n 2_o again_o a_o second_o example_n you_o have_v in_o

be_v to_o make_v know_v his_o patience_n and_o long-suffering_a perhaps_o the_o lord_n do_v let_v other_o go_v on_o for_o a_o long_a time_n in_o great_a sin_n but_o yet_o god_n by_o a_o few_o such_o example_n do_v declare_v to_o all_o the_o world_n what_o the_o evil_a of_o the_o least_o sin_n be_v and_o how_o his_o displeasure_n be_v out_o against_o the_o least_o sin_n if_o he_o do_v forbear_v that_o be_v to_o be_v attribute_v to_o his_o patience_n and_o long-suffering_a but_o not_o to_o the_o littleness_n of_o the_o sin_n or_o the_o littleness_n of_o the_o evil_a that_o be_v in_o that_o

have_v escape_v and_o these_o manifestation_n of_o god_n judgement_n be_v not_o so_o general_a and_o ordinary_a yet_o when_o they_o be_v but_o now_o and_o then_o god_n manifest_v what_o his_o

he_o will_v be_v sure_a it_o shall_v be_v for_o that_o which_o if_o he_o attain_v to_o that_o he_o aim_v at_o it_o shall_v be_v worth_a all_o if_o a_o man_n be_v at_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o charge_n in_o a_o voyage_n he_o aim_v at_o such_o a_o end_n as_o may_v be_v worth_a his_o charge_n so_o when_o god_n above_o all_o thing_n lay_v out_o his_o wisdom_n power_n and_o mercy_n &_o goodness_n &_o

and_o happiness_n must_v be_v worth_a it_o all_o and_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o glorious_a thing_n god_n intend_v for_o the_o child_n of_o man_n to_o make_v they_o happy_a withal_o when_o the_o

be_v make_v for_o and_o thus_o you_o see_v the_o evil_a of_o sin_n when_o god_n come_v to_o awaken_v man_n conscience_n and_o enlighten_v man_n soul_n to_o see_v how_o sin_n cross_v their_o
