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

take_v a_o man_n that_o lie_v as_o it_o be_v scald_a in_o god_n wrath_n his_o conscience_n burn_v and_o bring_v even_o hell_n to_o he_o that_o he_o cry_v and_o roar_v in_o the_o anguish_n of_o his_o

certain_o he_o will_v never_o keep_v company_n be_v drink_v be_v unclean_a or_o cozen_v any_o more_o but_o this_o may_v be_v to_o the_o admiration_n of_o man_n and_o angel_n to_o see_v how_o man_n and_o woman_n heart_n be_v set_v upon_o sin_n that_o notwithstanding_o all_o that_o anguish_n and_o horror_n that_o they_o have_v many_o time_n for_o it_o yet_o they_o will_v to_o it_o again_o and_o that_o as_o greedy_o as_o ever_o yea_o and_o sometime_o more_o greedy_o for_o if_o once_o a_o man_n consider_v i_o beseech_v you_o what_o i_o say_v have_v overcome_v the_o trouble_n of_o conscience_n for_o sin_n and_o fall_v to_o it_o again_o he_o will_v then_o be_v more_o greedy_a he_o will_v slight_v conscience_n then_o and_o scorn_v at_o conscience_n then_o and_o make_v nothing_o of_o it_o if_o once_o he_o have_v out_o stand_v conscience_n as_o a_o unruly_a horse_n if_o he_o have_v but_o once_o cast_v his_o rider_n then_o let_v he_o come_v on_o his_o back_n he_o care_v not_o for_o he_o he_o contemn_v he_o he_o will_v quick_o throw_v he_o off_o again_o so_o when_o the_o stubborn_a unruly_a lust_n of_o a_o man_n heart_n have_v once_o cast_v off_o conscience_n that_o a_o man_n or_o woman_n have_v be_v once_o under_o terror_n of_o conscience_n for_o sin_n and_o yet_o fall_v to_o it_o again_o such_o a_o man_n condition_n be_v very_o lamentable_a i●_n say_v not_o whole_o desperate_a i_o dare_v not_o say_v so_o for_o god_n thought_n be_v high_a than_o we_o as_o high_a as_o the_o heaven_n be_v above_o the_o earth_n but_o this_o man_n condition_n be_v very_o lamentable_a there_o be_v this_o strength_n in_o sin_n in_o the_o soul_n that_o all_o the_o terror_n in_o the_o world_n will_v not_o breed_v a_o devorce_n between_o sin_n and_o the_o soul_n but_o when_o once_o the_o soul_n

praise_n and_o glory_n this_o be_v the_o humiliation_n if_o any_o thing_n make_v a_o devorce_n between_o sin_n and_o the_o soul_n this_o will_v do_v it_o this_o be_v the_o three_o corollary_n that_o

to_o stand_v and_o admire_v at_o the_o infinite_a patience_n of_o the_o great_a god_n that_o shall_v behold_v so_o much_o sin_n in_o the_o world_n from_o such_o poor_a wretched_a vile_a creature_n

with_o the_o patience_n of_o god_n and_o with_o the_o long_o suffer_v of_o god_n but_o now_o that_o man_n or_o woman_n that_o come_v to_o know_v how_o sin_n wrong_v god_n and_o come_v to_o

take_v along_o with_o you_o what_o i_o have_v say_v about_o sin_n how_o it_o be_v against_o god_n and_o then_o consider_v how_o all_o sin_n that_o be_v commit_v god_n be_v present_a at_o it_o stands_z and_o look_n upon_o it_o do_v but_o think_v sometime_o with_o yourselves_o when_o you_o be_v among_o a_o great_a concourse_n of_o people_n among_o a_o company_n of_o profane_a wretched_a people_n as_o in_o market_n fair_n tavern_n inn_n and_o alehouse_n how_o be_v god_n name_n blaspheme_v there_o what_o dare_v of_o the_o bless_a god_n what_o scorn_v and_o contemn_v of_o his_o word_n and_o sacrament_n and_o ordinance_n well_o and_o now_o carry_v along_o that_o thought_n how_o god_n be_v wrong_v in_o all_o these_o strike_v at_o in_o all_o this_o and_o what_o a_o infinite_a god_n this_o

his_o mouth_n be_v enough_o to_o sink_v they_o to_o the_o bottomless-pit_n yet_o god_n be_v patient_a the_o first_o second_o and_o three_o time_n yea_o a_o hundred_o time_n perhaps_o thou_o have_v be_v a_o blasphemer_n twenty_o year_n forty_o year_n a_o swearer_n and_o when_o thou_o come_v in_o company_n oh_o the_o wicked_a oath_n that_o come_v from_o thou_o and_o hideous_a uncleanness_n and_o abominable_a wickedness_n and_o yet_o god_n stand_v by_o and_o look_n upon_o the_o swearer_n and_o be_v patient_a all_o the_o while_n certain_o brethren_n there_o be_v no_o man_n in_o all_o the_o

he_o wrong_v i_o i_o will_v make_v he_o know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o wrong_v i_o you_o can_v bear_v any_o wrong_n from_o your_o fellow_n creature_n oh_o consider_v what_o wrong_a god_n have_v bear_v from_o you_o and_o other_o stand_z and_o admire_v at_o the_o infinite_a patience_n and_o long-suffering_a of_o the_o lord_n true_o brethren_n when_o any_o man_n conscience_n come_v to_o be_v

have_v all_o the_o patience_n of_o all_o the_o man_n and_o woman_n in_o the_o world_n put_v into_o his_o heart_n all_o the_o patience_n and_o meekness_n that_o ever_o be_v in_o all_o the_o saint_n since_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n if_o it_o be_v all_o distil_v into_o the_o heart_n of_o one_o man_n or_o woman_n and_o suppose_v that_o this_o man_n or_o woman_n be_v but_o wrong_v as_o god_n be_v it_o be_v impossible_a but_o that_o that_o man_n or_o woman_n shall_v break_v forth_o with_o revenge_n against_o those_o wrong_n do_v to_o he_o or_o she_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o such_o a_o

here_o to_o be_v infinite_a in_o patience_n and_o long-suffering_a as_o well_o as_o infinite_a in_o any_o other_o attribute_n of_o he_o brethren_n it_o will_v be_v a_o especial_a part_n of_o the_o

at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n alas_o we_o see_v but_o little_a wrong_n do_v to_o god_n now_o we_o look_v upon_o notorious_a wretch_n and_o think_v they_o wrong_v god_n now_o we_o see_v but_o

in_o all_o place_n of_o the_o world_n then_o shall_v it_o all_o appear_v and_o then_o how_o will_v it_o appear_v to_o man_n and_o angel_n how_o god_n be_v wrong_v by_o his_o creature_n and_o then_o there_o will_v be_v the_o patience_n of_o god_n see_v that_o he_o shall_v be_v so_o patient_a so_o many_o thousand_o year_n together_o notwithstanding_o

the_o contrary_n but_o now_o you_o have_v hear_v there_o be_v nothing_o contrary_a to_o god_n to_o speak_v proper_o but_o only_a sin_n and_o if_o sin_n be_v the_o only_a contrary_n that_o god_n have_v then_o certain_o sin_n do_v seek_v the_o destruction_n of_o god_n so_o much_o as_o it_o can_v though_o it_o be_v true_a a_o sinner_n can_v never_o do_v god_n hurt_v nor_o can_v hinder_v god_n work_v or_o be_v at_o all_o whatsoever_o become_v of_o this_o wretch_n though_o he_o be_v destroy_v and_o perish_v to_o all_o eternity_n god_n will_v remain_v bless_v for_o ever_o but_o this_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o sin_n to_o seek_v the_o destruction_n of_o the_o eternal_a god_n of_o glory_n oh_o charge_v your_o heart_n with_o this_o do_v not_o stay_v till_o god_n come_v at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n to_o charge_v you_o with_o this_o for_o many_o poor_a sinner_n that_o go_v on_o blindfold_o all_o their_o day_n and_o never_o see_v sin_n what_o it_o be_v then_o come_v god_n upon_o their_o death_n bed_n and_o charge_v they_o with_o this_o and_o then_o their_o heart_n be_v full_a of_o horror_n and_o so_o at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n when_o god_n come_v to_o charge_v they_o with_o this_o than_o they_o will_v be_v amaze_v and_o will_v see_v the_o truth_n of_o this_o therefore_o see_v god_n do_v it_o now_o before_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n do_v you_o now_o charge_v it_o upon_o your_o own_o heart_n that_o so_o you_o may_v be_v humble_v this_o be_v the_o three_o particular_a it_o strike_v at_o god_n four_o sin_n wrong_v god_n exceed_o it_o do_v that_o wrong_n unto_o god_n that_o all_o the_o angel_n in_o heaven_n and_o man_n in_o the_o world_n can_v make_v up_o again_o any_o one_o sin_n take_v but_o the_o least_o sin_n that_o thou_o do_v commit_v i_o say_v

torment_v in_o hell_n to_o satisfy_v for_o that_o wrong_n that_o be_v do_v to_o thou_o by_o this_o man_n or_o woman_n sin_n god_n will_v say_v it_o can_v be_v do_v by_o all_o man_n and_o angel_n they_o can_v never_o make_v up_o this_o wrong_n and_o yet_o as_o i_o shall_v show_v hereafter_o god_n will_v have_v this_o wrong_n make_v up_o or_o thou_o must_v perish_v eternal_o many_o man_n plead_v thus_o who_o can_v challenge_v i_o and_o say_v i_o have_v wrong_v they_o in_o all_o my_o life_n they_o think_v this_o enough_o well_o suppose_v thou_o have_v live_v so_o that_o thou_o have_v not_o wrong_v man_n either_o in_o word_n or_o deed_n oh_o but_o thou_o have_v wrong_v god_n the_o live_v eternal_a god_n can_v charge_v thou_o though_o man_n can_v that_o thou_o have_v do_v he_o that_o wrong_n that_o all_o the_o creature_n in_o the_o world_n can_v make_v it_o good_a it_o be_v a_o sad_a thing_n if_o a_o man_n have_v do_v that_o wrong_n to_o a_o kingdom_n that_o all_o the_o

of_o heaven_n that_o all_o the_o angel_n in_o heaven_n and_o man_n in_o the_o world_n can_v never_o make_v up_o again_o well_o to_o conclude_v though_o the_o thing_n be_v hard_a and_o sad_a to_o

compassion_n and_o that_o in_o this_o particular_a and_o know_v though_o i_o speak_v of_o these_o thing_n now_o yet_o if_o god_n give_v liberty_n i_o shall_v be_v as_o glad_a and_o willing_a to_o be_v large_a in_o show_v you_o the_o riches_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o gospel_n in_o christ_n and_o god_n mercy_n in_o christ_n and_o i_o hope_v your_o heart_n will_v be_v as_o free_a and_o large_a in_o this_o as_o i_o be_o in_o speak_v of_o this_o and_o if_o i_o be_v now_o treat_v never_o so_o much_o of_o the_o riches_n of_o god_n mercy_n in_o christ_n i_o can_v not_o do_v it_o with_o more_o bowel_n of_o compassion_n than_o i_o do_v this_o but_o i_o do_v this_o that_o you_o may_v come_v to_o know_v yourselves_o that_o you_o may_v come_v to_o know_v christ_n that_o christ_n may_v be_v precious_a in_o your_o thought_n for_o the_o special_a end_n of_o christ_n come_n be_v to_o take_v away_o sin_n to_o deliver_v from_o sin_n therefore_o we_o must_v know_v sin_n and_o charge_v our_o soul_n with_o sin_n that_o christ_n may_v be_v precious_a therefore_o if_o any_o soul_n shall_v go_v away_o and_o say_v woe_n to_o i_o what_o have_v i_o do_v yea_o then_o such_o a_o soul_n be_v fit_a
