A93682	A hand-kercheffe for a disconsolate soule, to wipe away his sinne, and to keep him from despaire, as though they had never been committed. / By Samuel Spinckes, minister of Gods word.	Spinckes, Samuel.	1651 (1651)	Wing S4981; Thomason E633_7; ESTC R206473	19,356	31

tribulation_n and_o affliction_n be_v the_o patrimony_n of_o good_a man_n and_o good_a woman_n therefore_o never_o despair_v of_o mercy_n for_o any_o vexation_n or_o trouble_n nor_o have_v such_o a_o thought_n in_o thou_o as_o to_o think_v that_o god_n mercy_n be_v not_o for_o thou_o i_o wish_v that_o all_o our_o anabaptist_n and_o women-preacher_n will_v have_v such_o thought_n in_o they_o than_o i_o be_o persuade_v it_o will_v make_v they_o more_o conformable_a to_o our_o parliament_n and_o to_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n holy_a word_n let_v no_o affliction_n or_o trouble_n of_o this_o world_n i_o say_v daunt_v thou_o for_o unto_o good_a man_n and_o woman_n affliction_n and_o trouble_n in_o this_o life_n serve_v to_o admonish_v they_o of_o their_o infirmity_n and_o the_o virtue_n of_o good_a people_n be_v make_v manifest_a unto_o the_o world_n by_o their_o trouble_n and_o cross_n of_o this_o life_n wherefore_o if_o thou_o be_v almost_o in_o despair_n or_o be_v cast_v down_o upon_o thy_o bed_n of_o sickness_n etc._n etc._n why_o then_o note_n to_o thy_o comfort_n as_o in_o a_o skirmish_n as_o god_n grant_v it_o may_v be_v otherwise_o with_o this_o kingdom_n wherein_o there_o be_v now_o too_o many_o in_o the_o war_n that_o when_o the_o conflict_n be_v once_o begin_v than_o the_o courage_n of_o the_o captain_n i_o say_v then_o and_o not_o before_o be_v his_o valour_n exercise_v and_o know_v so_o when_o god_n do_v call_v his_o child_n to_o any_o cross_n or_o calamity_n then_o begin_v the_o battle_n than_o their_o bless_a patience_n and_o meek_a contentment_n be_v

his_o merciful_a hand_n shall_v reach_v or_o lay_v upon_o we_o say_v with_o holy_a and_o just_a job_n though_o he_o kill_v i_o yet_o will_v i_o trust_v in_o he_o job_n 13.15_o my_o son_n say_v the_o

for_o who_o the_o lord_n love_v he_o he_o chasten_v as_o gold_n and_o silver_n be_v try_v in_o the_o fire_n so_o i_o say_v be_v our_o faith_n and_o patience_n try_v in_o the_o furnace_n and_o fire_n of_o affliction_n sickness_n and_o affliction_n be_v a_o mean_n to_o purge_v out_o the_o dross_n of_o natural_a corruption_n which_o by_o reason_n of_o our_o sin_n remain_v within_o we_o affliction_n be_v sanctify_v say_v gregory_n will_v bring_v we_o to_o a_o true_a fight_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o so_o to_o a_o hearty_a sorrow_n for_o the_o same_o and_o affliction_n will_v teach_v humility_n even_o in_o the_o best_a of_o god_n child_n as_o job_n david_n paul_n and_o a_o man_n that_o shall_v but_o read_v johe_n book_n david_n psalm_n and_o saint_n paul_n epistle_n he_o can_v not_o but_o

therefore_o small_a be_v the_o force_n thereof_o but_o glory_n be_v a_o action_n and_o therefore_o powerful_a and_o increase_v every_o moment_n this_o life_n pass_v away_o swift_o and_o soon_o vanish_v therefore_o despair_v not_o but_o strive_v to_o make_v they_o election_n sure_a which_o may_v be_v do_v if_o thou_o can_v but_o believe_v and_o so_o labour_n and_o endeavour_v for_o the_o

and_o ever_o oh_o therefore_o good_a christian_a soul_n persevere_v constant_o in_o a_o pure_a faith_n in_o christ_n and_o therein_o labour_v to_o finish_v your_o course_n for_o great_a be_v your_o

the_o life_n of_o a_o christian_a can_v be_v without_o sin_n nor_o temptation_n for_o i_o dare_v say_v our_o profit_n and_o increase_v in_o godliness_n be_v through_o temptation_n as_o st._n

neither_o can_v he_o overcome_v except_o he_o fight_v neither_o can_v he_o fight_v except_o he_o have_v enemy_n and_o temptation_n to_o encounter_v with_o whence_o again_o note_n and_o observe_v that_o god_n use_v divers_a instrument_n in_o tempt_a trouble_v and_o afflict_v of_o his_o child_n for_o sometime_o he_o use_v the_o devil_n as_o he_o do_v with_o job_n sometime_o wicked_a man_n he_o use_v as_o a_o mean_n as_o the_o talse_a witness_n against_o our_o saviour_n and_o sometime_o he_o use_v other_o creature_n but_o yet_o in_o all_o these_o there_o be_v a_o double_a comfort_n to_o god_n child_n first_o that_o great_a and_o many_o be_v the_o trouble_n of_o the_o righteous_a and_o then_o second_o for_o their_o full_a comfort_n the_o lord_n will_v deliver_v they_o out_o of_o all_o psal_n 34.19_o the_o prophet_n do_v not_o say_v he_o have_v nor_o in_o the_o present_a do_v but_o in_o the_o future_a shall_v again_o if_o you_o observe_v the_o end_n of_o affliction_n therein_o also_o know_v that_o sometime_o we_o be_v afflict_v that_o we_o may_v be_v humble_v and_o the_o pride_n of_o our_o heart_n abate_v sometime_o to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o may_v not_o fix_v our_o

in_o his_o suffering_n we_o may_v also_o be_v glorify_v with_o he_o and_o herein_o remember_v how_o the_o lord_n try_v abraham_n in_o offer_v up_o his_o son_n how_o he_o try_v isaac_n jacob_n and_o all_o the_o patriarch_n with_o many_o and_o hard_a peregrination_n and_o think_v also_o how_o he_o try_v all_o the_o holy_a and_o godly_a martyr_n with_o scourge_n and_o torment_n with_o fire_n and_o

innocent_a again_o know_v and_o understand_v that_o the_o lord_n afflict_v his_o child_n for_o these_o end_n that_o our_o faith_n thereby_o in_o the_o first_o place_n may_v be_v more_o pure_a holy_a and_o perfect_a even_o as_o gold_n out_o of_o the_o furnace_n second_o that_o we_o may_v the_o better_o know_v ourselves_o and_o our_o own_o frailness_n and_o weakness_n three_o in_o respect_n of_o
