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

that_o know_v what_o sin_n be_v there_o be_v very_o severe_a and_o fearful_a thing_n reveal_v in_o the_o word_n against_o sin_n now_o such_o as_o understand_v not_o what_o the_o evil_a of_o sin_n be_v be_v ready_a to_o think_v they_o very_o hard_o for_o indeed_o it_o be_v only_o by_o the_o word_n we_o come_v to_o understand_v wherein_o the_o true_a evil_n of_o sin_n lie_v paul_n to_o the_o roman_n
