A30287	Seasonable words for English Protestants a sermon from Jer. 51, 5, setting forth, 1. When a land is filled with sin? 2. What evidences we have that England is not forsaken yet by God? and, 3. What is required of us, that we may not be given up to destruction.	Burgess, Daniel, 1645-1713.	1690 (1690)	Wing B5717; ESTC R3911	15,773	37

i_o shall_v speak_v only_o those_o that_o be_v compliant_a with_o the_o common_a reason_n and_o understanding_n of_o all_o sober_a person_n there_o be_v three_o way_n whereby_o a_o land_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v fill_v with_o sin_n 1._o when_o the_o sin_n of_o a_o land_n or_o nation_n be_v come_v to_o the_o full_a to_o the_o utmost_a measure_n that_o god_n have_v allot_v to_o they_o in_o his_o

or_o delay_v their_o destruction_n one_o day_n thus_o say_v god_n before_o the_o flood_n the_o land_n be_v fill_v with_o sin_n the_o whole_a earth_n with_o violence_n a_o flood_n shall_v take_v they_o away_o the_o cry_n of_o sodom_n and_o gomorrah_n come_v up_o to_o god_n they_o have_v fill_v up_o their_o measure_n god_n send_v fire_n and_o brimstone_n to_o destroy_v they_o you_o shall_v not_o yet_o go_v into_o canaan_n why_o the_o iniquity_n of_o the_o amorites_n be_v not_o yet_o full_a there_o be_v a_o time_n appoint_v wherein_o the_o iniquity_n of_o the_o amorites_n shall_v come_v up_o to_o its_o full_a measure_n beyond_o which_o their_o destruction_n shall_v not_o be_v delay_v this_o be_v not_o now_o the_o case_n of_o israel_n and_o judah_n it_o prove_v afterward_o to_o be_v their_o case_n as_o the_o apostle_n describe_v it_o 1_o thes_n 2.15_o 16._o who_o both_o kill_v the_o lord_n jesus_n and_o their_o own_o prophet_n and_o have_v persecute_v we_o and_o they_o please_v not_o god_n and_o be_v contrary_a unto_o all_o man_n forbid_v we_o to_o preach_v to_o the_o gentile_n that_o they_o may_v be_v save_v to_o fill_v up_o their_o sin_n always_o for_o the_o wrath_n be_v come_v upon_o they_o to_o the_o uttermost_a how_o come_v they_o have_v fill_v their_o measure_n reach_v to_o their_o bound_n wrath_n be_v come_v upon_o they_o to_o the_o uttermost_a i_o hope_v i_o

universal_a desolation_n shall_v be_v go_v forth_o against_o we_o 2._o a_o land_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v fill_v with_o sin_n when_o it_o be_v come_v to_o that_o degree_n and_o measure_n as_o that_o god_n will_v not_o pass_v it_o by_o without_o some_o severe_a desolate_v judgement_n he_o will_v not_o utter_o forsake_v it_o he_o will_v not_o utter_o destroy_v it_o but_o let_v all_o mankind_n do_v what_o they_o will_v he_o will_v not_o pass_v it_o by_o without_o some_o severe_a desolate_v judgement_n such_o be_v their_o case_n even_o at_o this_o time_n you_o may_v see_v in_o 2_o chron._n 36.16_o but_o they_o mock_v the_o messenger_n of_o god_n and_o despise_v his_o word_n and_o misuse_v his_o prophet_n until_o the_o wrath_n of_o the_o lord_n arise_v against_o his_o people_n till_o there_o be_v no_o remedy_n it_o be_v impossible_a that_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v turn_v away_o from_o they_o in_o this_o state_n god_n say_v pray_v not_o for_o this_o people_n my_o heart_n shall_v not_o be_v towards_o they_o until_o he_o have_v bring_v his_o judgement_n upon_o they_o though_o moses_n and_o samuel_n stand_v before_o i_o i_o will_v not_o hear_v they_o ay_o but_o what_o if_o reformation_n come_v in_o nay_o nay_o say_v he_o it_o be_v determine_v against_o they_o reformation_n shall_v not_o save_v they_o see_v 2_o king_n c._n 23_o v._n 25_o 26._o where_o

and_o hold_v the_o balance_n of_o this_o nation_n in_o his_o hand_n and_o can_v turn_v it_o to_o mercy_n or_o judgement_n as_o seem_v good_a unto_o he_o while_o it_o be_v so_o while_o though_o the_o

second_o i_o say_v and_o do_v you_o take_v it_o as_o you_o see_v good_a but_o i_o will_v tell_v you_o my_o persuasion_n that_o if_o there_o be_v not_o a_o compliance_n with_o the_o call_v of_o god_n unto_o this_o nation_n upon_o this_o suspension_n and_o arrest_n of_o judgement_n that_o we_o be_v under_o we_o shall_v as_o certain_o perish_v as_o if_o we_o be_v in_o either_o of_o the_o two_o

the_o call_v of_o god_n in_o the_o day_n wherein_o we_o live_v let_v we_o then_o a_o little_a as_o god_n will_v give_v strength_n inquire_v when_o a_o nation_n be_v so_o fill_v with_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a one_o of_o israel_n as_o certain_o to_o put_v the_o balance_n into_o the_o hand_n of_o sovereignty_n and_o to_o take_v off_o all_o rule_n and_o prognostic_n which_o with_o great_a grief_n i_o have_v hear_v sometime_o insist_v upon_o and_o reduce_v we_o mere_o to_o the_o hand_n of_o sovereignty_n when_o be_v it_o that_o a_o land_n be_v so_o fill_v with_o sin_n 1._o a_o land_n be_v so_o

unto_o it_o in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o revelation_n and_o that_o upon_o this_o great_a analogy_n which_o i_o shall_v now_o brief_o show_v why_o do_v god_n call_v the_o apostate_n state_n of_o the_o church_n under_o the_o new_a testament_n babylon_n babylon_n the_o mystery_n for_o these_o three_o reason_n first_o as_o old_a babylon_n be_v the_o rise_n and_o spring_n of_o apostasy_n from_o natural_a worship_n in_o the_o world_n unto_o idolatry_n so_o this_o new_a babylon_n be_v the_o rise_n and_o spring_n of_o apostasy_n from_o evangelical_n worship_n in_o the_o world_n unto_o idolatry_n mark_v the_o analogy_n hence_o she_o be_v call_v the_o mother_n of_o harlot_n that_o be_v she_o that_o have_v bring_v forth_o all_o the_o idolatrous_a church_n and_o worship_n that_o be_v in_o the_o world_n do_v babylon_n begin_v to_o apostatise_v into_o idolatry_n from_o natural_a worship_n so_o rome_n begin_v to_o apostatise_v into_o idolatry_n from_o spiritual_a evangelical_n worship_n therefore_o the_o holy_a ghost_n call_v her_o babylon_n second_o the_o peculiar_a idolatry_n of_o babylon_n con●●●●ed_v in_o image-worship_n the_o worship_v of_o man_n depart_v under_o image_n make_v to_o their_o likeness_n and_o the_o peculiar_a idolatry_n of_o rome_n consist_v in_o image-worship_n their_o worship_a saint_n depart_v which_o be_v a_o great_a part_n of_o their_o idolatry_n and_o therein_o they_o be_v babylon_n also_o three_o and_o last_o as_o babylon_n be_v the_o spring_n of_o all_o persecution_n against_o and_o oppression_n of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n under_o the_o old_a testament_n so_o rome_n have_v be_v the_o spring_n of_o all_o persecution_n and_o oppression_n of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n since_o the_o apostasy_n under_o the_o new_a testament_n on_o these_o account_n have_v the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o infinite_a wisdom_n transfer_v over_o the_o name_n and_o state_n and_o other_o thing_n speak_v of_o babylon_n from_o the_o old_a unto_o the_o new_a i_o have_v mention_v this_o that_o you_o may_v see_v the_o interest_n of_o england_n in_o this_o text_n of_o scripture_n so_o far_o as_o the_o truth_n of_o religion_n be_v own_v in_o this_o nation_n so_o far_o as_o there_o be_v a_o testimony_n give_v against_o idolatry_n we_o be_v to_o god_n as_o israel_n and_o judah_n though_o the_o land_n be_v fill_v with_o sin_n at_o the_o time_n of_o this_o prophecy_n israel_n and_o judah_n be_v in_o danger_n of_o present_a destruction_n and_o desolation_n from_o the_o old_a babylon_n and_o if_o we_o do_v not_o mock_v god_n in_o all_o we_o do_v we_o be_v under_o apprehension_n that_o england_n and_o the_o church_n of_o god_n in_o england_n be_v under_o danger_n of_o the_o same_o desolation_n and_o …_o struction_n from_o new_a babylon_n upon_o the_o same_o account_n and_o principle_n if_o we_o do_v not_o mock_v god_n this_o be_v that_o we_o profess_v at_o this_o day_n wherefore_o the_o parallel_n run_v thus_o far_o equal_a such_o as_o be_v babylon_n of_o old_a such_o be_v that_o at_o present_a such_o as_o be_v the_o danger_n of_o israel_n and_o judah_n from_o they_o at_o that_o day_n such_o be_v the_o danger_n of_o england_n from_o the_o new_a at_o this_o present_a this_o be_v speak_v in_o general_n for_o the_o open_n of_o the_o word_n observe_v these_o three_o thing_n 1._o that_o there_o be_v in_o they_o a_o reduplication_n of_o the_o name_n or_o title_n of_o god_n he_o be_v in_o this_o verse_n call_v by_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n of_o host_n and_o by_o the_o name_n of_o the_o holy_a one_o of_o israel_n where_o there_o be_v such_o reduplication_n of_o the_o name_n of_o god_n or_o any_o of_o his_o title_n the_o holy_a ghost_n will_v have_v we_o take_v notice_n that_o it_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o great_a importance_n whereof_o he_o speak_v 2._o there_o be_v a_o distribution_n and_o application_n of_o these_o name_n of_o god_n unto_o distinct_a occasion_n suitable_a unto_o they_o 1._o there_o be_v in_o it_o mention_v a_o intimation_n of_o a_o surprisal_n with_o some_o protection_n or_o deliverance_n who_o shall_v it_o be_v do_v by_o the_o lord_n of_o host_n say_v he_o the_o lord_n his_o god_n and_o he_o do_v not_o in_o vain_a add_v immediate_o the_o lord_n of_o host_n that_o title_n of_o god_n he_o who_o have_v the_o host_n above_o and_o the_o host_n below_o in_o his_o sovereign_a disposal_n god_n host_n above_o be_v all_o the_o holy_a angel_n and_o all_o the_o heavenly_a body_n in_o their_o influence_n the_o star_n in_o their_o course_n fight_v against_o sisera_n and_o he_o have_v late_o hang_v forth_o among_o we_o a_o flag_n or_o ensign_n of_o his_o host_n above_o intimate_v that_o he_o be_v arise_v in_o his_o indignation_n as_o the_o lord_n of_o host_n and_o have_v hang_v forth_o a_o ensign_n before_o his_o come_n full_a of_o dread_n and_o terror_n and_o he_o be_v the_o lord_n of_o host_n here_o below_o of_o all_o man_n and_o of_o all_o creature_n dispose_v of_o they_o as_o seem_v good_a unto_o he_o the_o prophet_n add_v this_o name_n of_o god_n because_o of_o the_o unspeakable_a greatness_n of_o the_o thing_n he_o mention_n namely_o that_o israel_n shall_v not_o be_v forsake_v nor_o judah_n while_o the_o land_n be_v so_o fill_v with_o sin_n and_o the_o whole_a interest_n of_o babylon_n so_o come_v upon_o they_o 2._o the_o other_o title_n of_o god_n be_v the_o holy_a one_o of_o israel_n this_o be_v apply_v peculiar_o unto_o their_o sin_n the_o land_n be_v fill_v with_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a one_o of_o israel_n it_o be_v the_o great_a it_o be_v the_o high_a aggravation_n of_o sin_n that_o it_o be_v against_o the_o holiness_n of_o god_n who_o be_v a_o god_n of_o pure_a eye_n than_o to_o behold_v iniquity_n so_o have_v the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n apply_v these_o two_o distinct_a title_n of_o god_n unto_o the_o two_o distinct_a consideration_n of_o the_o people_n first_o of_o their_o protection_n that_o he_o be_v the_o lord_n of_o host_n second_o as_o of_o their_o sin_n that_o he_o be_v the_o holy_a one_o of_o israel_n 3._o the_o three_o thing_n be_v this_o that_o in_o this_o woeful_a state_n there_o be_v yet_o a_o intimation_n make_v of_o a_o covenant_n interest_n of_o judah_n in_o god_n and_o that_o god_n do_v yet_o own_v they_o as_o his_o in_o covenant_n israel_n have_v not_o be_v forsake_v

land_n be_v full_a of_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a one_o of_o israel_n and_o destruction_n seem_v to_o encompass_v they_o from_o the_o interest_n of_o babylon_n i_o shall_v speak_v yet_o a_o little_a more_o particular_o you_o may_v consider_v in_o the_o word_n 1._o that_o which_o be_v mention_v in_o the_o last_o place_n the_o state_n of_o the_o people_n at_o this_o time_n their_o land_n
