loue to them as also in accepting of their little aswell as of the greater Sacrifices of richer persons It hath béene touched before but it can neuer be learned too much so weake are we and subiect to doubts 5 Note againe in the 11. Verse how no Oyle might bee put vpon that Offering neither any incense Oyle signifying gladnesse and Incense a swéete sauour The Lord by this Ceremonie shadowed how hatefull a thing sinne is and all that commit it till the Lord be reconciled to them againe He hath no ioy in vs neither yéeld we any swéet sauor And as he ioyeth not in vs so should we not ioy in our selues For if we do we powre Oyle vpon our Sacrifice contrary to the Law and if we thinke well of our selues we put incense also vnto it The Lord loueth a sorrowing sinner adorned with sackcloth and ashes and they that so weepe shall laugh he abhorreth proud sinners that doe euill and yet reioyce assuring such laughers that they shall weepe But alas our dayes who sorrow lesse than they that sinne most and who are more lustie and iolye than they that haue least cause if they knew their estate Read the 21 of Iob and sée the merry dayes of the wicked so in the Booke of Wisedome againe in many more places in the Scripture These men offer prayers to God at times after their fashion but they put Oyle and Incense vpon their Offering they reioyce and are merry being full of euill and they thinke their smell is as Incense to God pleasing and acceptable when hée abhorreth them and all their workes O take héede therefore of this vuféelingnesse and remember this Ceremonie often in al your doings and you disliking your selfe the Lorde shall like you in his liked and beloued Sonne your onely Sauiour euer 6 In the 15. verse Sée and marke the Law against purloyning and taking away of Tythes or First-fruites due to the Priests God still loueth his Ministers and still requireth that they be honestly liberally maintained God still abhorreth the wilfull and wayward breakrs of such Order for their maintenance as the Christian Magistrate in his authoritie according to right establisheth and appointeth Therefore let such as desire to be acceptable to God neither offend him nor their own consciences by such fraud and iniurie S. Augustines Speach is as true as old The fault is not forgiuen with God vnlesse that which was taken away bee restored to men not that restitution taketh away sinne before God but because true Faith must néedes haue good fruite and cannot be without restitution if there be power and if not yet in heart and will For againe Saint Augustine If that which is another mans sinfully purloyned by me be not restored repentance is but feigned there is none indeede How little this false and vniust dealing with Gods Ministers is regarded with many in these dayes who knoweth not and they are neuer troubled for it much lesse doe they purpose either restitution or amendment But the day will come when it will smart this Lawe of God hauing his enduring equitie and God in other places professing That this robbing of his seruants is the robbing of him and so he taketh it and so will punish it But let this suffice of this Chapter These things will come in other places to be remembred againe CHAP. VI. THis Chapter first speaketh of the Offering for Sinnes that are done willingly And secondly setteth out more fully the Rites and Ceremonies of other Sacrifices briefly touched before beginning with the fire and ashes of the Burnt-offering Of the former the Text saith thus If any sinne and commit a trespasse against the Lord and denie to his neighbour that which was taken him to keepe or that which was put to him of trust or doth by robbery or violence oppresse his Neighbour Or hath found that which was lost and denieth it and sweareth falsly for any of these things that a man doth wherin he sinneth when I say he thus sinneth and trespasseth he shall then restore the robbery that he robbed or the thing taken by violence which he tooke by force or the thing which was deliuered to him to keepe or the lost thing which he found Or for whom soeuer hee hath sworne falsly he shall both restore it in the whole summe and shall adde the fift part more thereunto and giue vnto him to whom it pertaineth the same day that he offereth for his trespasse Also he shall bring for his trespasse vnto the Lord a Ramme without blemish out of the flocke in thy estimation worth two sickles for a trespasse Offering vnto the Priest And the Priest shall make an atonement for him before the Lord and it shall bee forgiuen him whatsoeuer thing hee hath done and trespassed therein This Place thus written out at large yéeldeth great comfort to many a trembling soule and therefore duely to be regarded Sinnes of ignorance haue not such blacknesse in them although Sinnes as you saw before as sinnes wittingly and willingly committed and therefore when féeling commeth this Circumstance of knowledge greatly afflicteth the conscience But blessed be God euen these sinnes also finde mercie with him vpon true Repentance So did Abraham for his lye which contrary to his knowledge hée wittingly and willingly committed So did Dauid for his fall Peter and many more Here you sée a Speciall sacrifice appointed and an atonement to bee made Should it not be so likewise now that euen for these sinnes there were an atonement by Iesus Christ our state vnder the Gospell were worse than theirs vnder the Law Yet let no mercie and goodnesse in God make vs bolde and presumptuous to sinne but with Dauid pray against such kinde of sinning euer Keepe me O Lord from presumptuous sinnes that they haue not dominion ouer me c. 2 You may obserue the examples or particulars layd downe in the Text and sée how before God all these are sinnes which yet many persons in the world make little reckoning of To denie the thing committed to our keeping To breake the trust reposed in vs To robbe our Neighbours and violently to take things from them To denie that which was lost and wee haue found To sweare falsly many times and euen for trifles with such like doe euery one thinke them sinnes and stand in feare to commit them No we know it well they are lightly thought of by too many But let Gods Lawe profit all his to a true knowledge what is sinne and to a due care to auoide it when we know it So shall it he well with vs for euer and with those also we wish well vnto after vs to a thousand generations 3 Note in the 5. vers The restitution againe which God appointeth to be made to the owners euen with a fift part more the same day that hee offereth for his trespasse And still gather this Doctrine for your vse That
