A53117	The fall of man by sinne delivered in a sermon preached at the late solemne fast, Aug. 28, 1644 : wherein these three positions are briefly handled : 1. That all men are miserably fallen from God by sin, and are in a lost condition, 2. That we must see ourselves thus fallen, and utterly lost in ourselves, before we can convert and turn to God by repentance, 3. That formes of prayer may, in some cases be lawfully and warrantably used : published at the request of that truly religious and vertuous gentlewoman, mistris Elizabeth Barnham, wife to the worshipfull Robert Barnham, Esq. / by William Newport, Preacher of the word at Boughton Monchelsey in Kent.

case_n a_o man_n have_v occasion_n to_o ask_v again_o and_o again_o or_o daily_o the_o same_o thing_n there_o be_v no_o question_n but_o a_o man_n may_v ask_v they_o in_o the_o same_o word_n therefore_o a_o man_n daily_o need_v pardon_n of_o sin_n strength_n of_o faith_n fortitude_n and_o patience_n etc._n etc._n there_o be_v no_o doubt_n but_o a_o man_n may_v ask_v these_o thing_n

as_o good_a a_o affection_n as_o the_o other_o our_o saviour_n in_o his_o agony_n say_v father_n if_o it_o be_v possible_a etc._n etc._n and_o go_v again_o and_o again_o and_o use_v the_o same_o

we_o may_v even_o with_o zeal_n and_o earnestness_n ask_v the_o same_o thing_n again_o and_o again_o in_o the_o same_o word_n howbeit_o for_o a_o christian_n to_o be_v absolute_o word-bound_a to_o be_v tie_v so_o to_o another_o form_n or_o his_o own_o that_o he_o have_v no_o liberty_n to_o vary_v in_o any_o expression_n be_v a_o great_a bondage_n and_o dead_n to_o his_o spirit_n and_o may_v occasion_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o mere_a formality_n in_o prayer_n but_o now_o when_o a_o christian_a have_v need_v to_o ask_v some_o special_a mercy_n either_o in_o his_o own_o behalf_n or_o the_o behalf_n of_o his_o neighbour_n or_o in_o the_o behalf_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n of_o god_n or_o when_o he_o receive_v some_o new_a mercy_n there_o be_v no_o question_n but_o he_o be_v to_o ask_v the_o one_o and_o to_o give_v thanks_n for_o the_o other_o in_o new_a expression_n this_o therefore_o be_v that_o which_o i_o determine_v viz._n that_o weak_a christian_n may_v use_v form_n as_o help_n to_o their_o infirmity_n until_o they_o gather_v more_o strength_n and_o that_o then_o they_o be_v to_o lay_v they_o aside_o as_o a_o lame_a man_n his_o crutch_n when_o he_o be_v recover_v his_o lameness_n and_o as_o for_o those_o that_o be_v better_a able_a they_o may_v ask_v those_o thing_n they_o daily_o need_v in_o the_o same_o word_n and_o give_v thanks_n for_o those_o thing_n they_o daily_o receive_v in_o the_o same_o expression_n so_o that_o they_o look_v that_o they_o be_v not_o mere_o formal_a in_o what_o they_o do_v and_o that_o otherwise_o every_o grow_v christian_n be_v to_o vary_v as_o his_o occasion_n do_v vary_v prayer_n harris_n in_o his_o query_n and_o case_n touch_v theory_n and_o practice_n of_o prayer_n and_o this_o be_v the_o sentence_n of_o one_o of_o

of_o man_n 1._o the_o anabaptist_n and_o those_o of_o the_o separation_n that_o condemn_v not_o only_o corrupt_a form_n but_o all_o form_n of_o prayer_n hold_v the_o use_n of_o they_o to_o be_v a_o mere_a superstitious_a will-worship_n for_o they_o say_v it_o be_v not_o to_o pray_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o if_o the_o form_n be_v compose_v by_o other_o that_o it_o be_v to_o worship_n god_n by_o man_n invention_n of_o who_o i_o will_v know_v whether_o the_o godly_a jew_n use_v this_o form_n prescribe_v by_o the_o prophet_n with_o a_o good_a heart_n do_v pray_v in_o the_o spirit_n or_o no_o i_o hope_v they_o will_v not_o deny_v it_o next_o i_o will_v know_v by_o who_o invention_n they_o worship_v god_n when_o they_o conceive_v a_o prayer_n if_o they_o shall_v say_v that_o it_o be_v by_o the_o invention_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n that_o be_v the_o opinion_n of_o the_o entheusiast_n which_o look_v to_o have_v the_o spirit_n put_v word_n into_o their_o mouth_n which_o be_v as_o much_o as_o ever_o it_o do_v for_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n whereas_o the_o spirit_n in_o ordinary_a time_n such_o as_o we_o only_o stir_v up_o holy_a desire_n in_o the_o soul_n the_o

that_o i_o will_v never_o believe_v they_o can_v speak_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o pprophecy_n beside_o what_o do_v these_o man_n think_v of_o all_o those_o form_n of_o prayer_n mention_v before_o

too_o the_o modulation_n of_o the_o voice_n in_o sing_v be_v as_o likely_a to_o take_v off_o the_o heart_n from_o the_o matter_n as_o the_o use_n of_o the_o eye_n in_o read_v 2._o some_o formalist_n

they_o have_v learn_v by_o rote_n without_o any_o understanding_n or_o heart_n at_o all_o these_o be_v just_a like_o our_o foolish_a papist_n that_o use_v their_o prayer_n in_o all_o temptation_n and_o affliction_n as_o charm_n and_o spell_n to_o remove_v the_o evil_n from_o they_o this_o be_v only_o to_o take_v the_o lord_n name_v in_o vain_a to_o abuse_v his_o title_n and_o his_o word_n and_o to_o provoke_v he_o to_o more_o wrath_n and_o indignation_n against_o they_o though_o i_o like_v not_o the_o former_a yet_o i_o like_v these_o you_o must_v think_v worse_o by_o many_o degree_n the_o former_a have_v some_o goodwil_a to_o religion_n though_o mislead_v but_o these_o be_v gross_o ignorant_a and_o dangerous_o hypocritical_a for_o they_o draw_v near_o to_o god_n with_o their_o
