Ezek. 22.9 all carring tales lying and speaking untruth to deceive in jest or earnest all officious or pernirious lies in trading buying Levit. 19.16 selling or otherwise all not ruling the tongue and all other wayes and meanes of hurting with the tongue by any idle unprofitable or sinfull words whatsoever James 3.2 3. c. Quest 12. Certainly Christ in this glasse of the Law giveth a light to finde out many sins and failing even in the best much more the abominations of wicked men Gen. 6.5 who are sencelesse of the villanies of their owne evill hearts what benefit may we reape by this Ans First Mat. 12.36 to teach wicked men to tremble the sinnes of whose words are sufficient to damm them for ever in hell fire Secondly to teach them to prize the Gospell which brings them news of a Saviour Prov. 23.26 and to waite on the meanes of grace if at any time Christ will give them Repentance and faith in Christ Jesus Heb. 13.5 Phil. 3.11 12 13. that they may be delivered out of the snare of the devill who are taken captive by him at his will Thirdly to teach Gods children to fly dayly to Christ and meet Christ in his Ordinances 2 Pet. 1.9 10 11. as to gaine more assurance of pardon even of their sinnefull words so for power to set a watch before their mouthes Psal 39.1 2. and to keepe the dors of their lips that they sinne not in their words Eph. 4.29 c. but that no corrupt communication come out of their mouthes but that which is good to the use of edifying that it may minister grace to the hearers as becomes those who have received true light from Christ Quest 13. You are now come by Gods goodnesse and light from Christ to the tenth and last Commandement of the Decalogue tell I pray you what are the duties commanded and the sinnes forbidden in this Commandement Thou shalt not covet thy neighbours house thou shalt not covet thy Neighbours wife nor his man-servant nor his maid-servant nor his Oxe nor his Asse nor any thing that is thy Neighbours Ans To open the Commandement a little and then to give you the duties Note first that whereas Moses here useth the Hebrew word Tatehmod covet in Deut. 5.21 he useth the word Tithavveh desire which the Hebrewes make lesse then to covet implying a prohibition of the least desire or thought to commit sinne in wronging our Neighbour so much as in our hearts or desires and in Deuterinomy the wife is named before the house and the field is added which is not named here Secondly you may observe the object of this coveting or desire prohibited Thou shalt not covet First in particular not thy Neighbours house Secondly not his wife Thirdly not his man-servant Fourthly not his maide-servant Fifthly not his Oxe Sixthly not his Asse Seventhly in the generall Nor any thing that is thy Neighbours Now the duty the Lord requireth is Prov. 23.26 wee should give God our hearts and every man and woman should be content in their minds Heb. 13.5 hearts and affections with that outward estate and condition in which it hath pleased God to place them Phil. 4.11 12 13. to behave themselves well towards their Neighbours not onely in outward actions but inwardly in affections and to declare their love out of a pure heart using all meanes to cherish and keepe good thoughts Luke 10.27 Galat. 5.17 Phil. 4.8 1 Thess 5.23 Prov. 4.23 desires and affections in their hearts and to banish or keepe evill lusts and desires out that by the strength of Christ they may bee carefull not to sinne so much as in a lust or desire or thought against God or their Neighbour Quest 14. Now you have held forth the duty required in the affirmative part of this Commandement what I pray you are the sinnes prohibited and what light from Christ the great Prophet of his Church to reveale these in the sacred Scriptures Ans First in generall the Lord prohibits all sinfull or evill concupiscence Rom. 7.7 and lusts or desires of the heart even before consent of will Coloss 3.5 originall corruption and pollution of heart Gen. 8.21 Mat. 15.19 the root of evill lusts and desires All actuall particular unlawfull passions lusts and desires of the soule Mat. 5.22.38 1 John 2. yea the very lusts of the eyes as our Saviour speaketh hee that looketh upon a Woman to lust after her 15 16. Jo 1.31.1 hath committed adultery with her in his heart and hee that is but angry with his brother unadvisedly is in danger of judgement Mat. 5.22 Joshua 7.21 Psal 19.7 Heb. 4 12.13 Isai 55.7 So that in this the perfection precisenesse and exact strictnesse of the Law of God appeareth above all humane Lawes whatsoever because they onely take hold of men sinning in words or actions Prov. 24.9 Jere. 17.9 10. Genes 6.5 James 2.10 11. Deut. 27.26 not of evill thoughts except they bee made manifest But the Lord searcheth the very heart and sinnefull lusts desires imaginations and thoughts of the heart make them guilty before God and subject men to the curse as breakers of Gods most holy Law Quest 15. Blessed bee God that you have received this light from Christ to declare the minde of God in these Ten Commandements both concerning duties commanded and sinnes forbidden yea even to the very thoughts lusts and desires of our soules good or evill Now what profit or benefit may the knowledge of this bring to a Christian soule and what light from Christ to make a right use of this that God hath revealed by Christ and his Spirit in the explication of these directions for
