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

against_o a_o weak_a temptation_n yet_o if_o there_o come_v a_o strong_a temptation_n will_v quick_o break_v through_o the_o hedge_n all_o those_o poor_a low_a ground_n and_o argument_n temptation_n will_v quick_o break_v through_o they_o but_o when_o the_o heart_n be_v raise_v to_o oppose_v sin_n upon_o such_o high_a ground_n as_o this_o be_v certain_o this_o note_n a_o true_a raise_v heart_n by_o god_n and_o such_o a_o one_o be_v like_a to_o stand_v out_o against_o temptation_n in_o another_o manner_n than_o other_o do_v and_o true_o when_o the_o heart_n be_v possess_v with_o this_o thought_n it_o can_v perhaps_o parley_v and_o reason_n with_o the_o temptation_n as_o other_o can_n yea_o this_o one_o principle_n of_o sin_v against_o god_n will_v so_o fill_v the_o heart_n of_o a_o man_n or_o woman_n that_o though_o it_o do_v not_o stand_v reason_v and_o answer_v every_o thing_n yet_o it_o will_v even_o burst_v out_o either_o in_o tear_n and_o fall_v a_o lament_a that_o it_o shall_v be_v pester_v with_o temptation_n or_o burst_v out_o into_o resolution_n against_o it_o i_o remember_v a_o excellent_a story_n report_v in_o the_o book_n of_o martyr_n you_o may_v find_v it_o in_o king_n edward_n life_n that_o young_a prince_n that_o die_v at_o some_o fifteen_o year_n of_o age_n in_o his_o time_n there_o be_v two_o bishop_n otherwise_o good_a and_o prove_v martyr_n and_o yet_o you_o may_v see_v what_o the_o best_a of_o they_o be_v in_o those_o time_n they_o come_v to_o persuade_v the_o king_n to_o yield_v to_o a_o toleration_n of_o the_o mass_n and_o it_o be_v but_o for_o his_o sister_n neither_o not_o for_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n but_o mere_o for_o his_o own_o sister_n to_o yield_v to_o a_o toleration_n of_o it_o in_o her_o chapel_n he_o stand_v out_o against_o it_o though_o young_a think_v it_o a_o dishonour_n to_o god_n well_o they_o plead_v and_o reason_n with_o he_o tell_v he_o it_o be_v best_a in_o state_n policy_n and_o other_o ground_n they_o use_v to_o persuade_v a_o toleration_n of_o popery_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o kind_n of_o man_n these_o in_o these_o way_n be_v and_o if_o you_o do_v not_o know_v yet_o you_o be_v like_a to_o know_v more_o in_o this_o kind_n about_o these_o way_n but_o this_o i_o bring_v it_o for_o when_o the_o poor_a king_n though_o young_a have_v his_o heart_n possess_v with_o this_o principle_n that_o he_o shall_v not_o do_v any_o thing_n against_o god_n he_o can_v not_o answer_v the_o bishop_n that_o come_v so_o subtle_o but_o instead_o of_o answer_v their_o reason_n he_o burst_v out_o with_o tear_n and_o then_o they_o be_v convince_v and_o confess_v the_o king_n have_v more_o divinity_n in_o his_o little_a finger_n than_o they_o have_v in_o all_o their_o body_n so_o i_o apply_v it_o to_o you_o young_a one_o perhaps_o temptation_n to_o that_o which_o be_v a_o sin_n against_o god_n come_v subtle_o strengthen_v with_o this_o argument_n and_o the_o other_o argument_n but_o if_o you_o have_v your_o heart_n possess_v with_o this_o truth_n it_o be_v a_o sin_n against_o god_n oh_o when_o you_o can_v answer_v the_o particular_n of_o temptation_n burst_v out_o and_o weep_v and_o cry_n either_o for_o your_o condition_n or_o that_o you_o shall_v be_v pester_v with_o that_o you_o know_v be_v a_o sin_n against_o god_n and_o say_v i_o have_v rather_o lose_v my_o life_n suffer_v any_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n than_o sin_n against_o god_n if_o your_o heart_n be_v fill_v with_o this_o principle_n when_o temptation_n to_o sin_n come_v you_o will_v be_v ready_a to_o burst_v out_o and_o weep_v before_o the_o lord_n and_o this_o will_v be_v as_o strong_a a_o answer_n to_o temptation_n as_o can_v be_v and_o satan_n will_v quick_o avoid_v if_o you_o can_v when_o you_o find_v yourselves_o pester_v with_o temptation_n and_o it_o follow_v and_o dog_n and_o pursue_v you_o if_o you_o can_v be_v fill_v with_o this_o principle_n that_o sin_n be_v against_o god_n if_o you_o can_v get_v
