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

mankind_n the_o dreadful_a give_v of_o the_o law_n his_o dreadful_a judgement_n for_o small_a sin_n and_o example_n of_o his_o wrath_n abroad_o in_o the_o world_n and_o the_o eternal_a torment_n in_o hell_n put_v all_o these_o six_o together_o and_o yet_o i_o say_v all_o these_o six_o be_v not_o so_o much_o to_o manifest_v the_o displeasure_n of_o god_n against_o sin_n as_o this_o one_o that_o now_o i_o shall_v tell_v you_o of_o and_o if_o there_o be_v any_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n that_o shall_v make_v we_o to_o see_v the_o evil_n of_o sin_n it_o shall_v be_v this_o if_o any_o thing_n make_v our_o heart_n to_o shake_v and_o tremble_v at_o the_o evil_a of_o that_o sin_n of_o which_o it_o be_v so_o much_o guilty_a than_o this_o i_o say_v that_o now_o i_o speak_v of_o shall_v do_v it_o and_o that_o be_v this_o the_o deal_n of_o god_n the_o father_n with_o his_o son_n when_o jesus_n christ_n that_o be_v the_o second_o person_n of_o the_o trinity_n god_n bless_v for_o ever_o come_v to_o be_v our_o mediator_n and_o to_o have_v but_o our_o sin_n impute_v unto_o he_o and_o according_a to_o scripture_n phrase_n to_o be_v make_v sin_n do_v but_o then_o take_v notice_n how_o god_n deal_v with_o he_o how_o god_n manifest_v himself_o to_o his_o own_o son_n when_o his_o own_o son_n do_v but_o take_v man_n sin_n upon_o he_o to_o answer_v for_o it_o do_v but_o then_o consider_v how_o god_n the_o father_n do_v deal_v with_o he_o the_o scripture_n say_v he_o do_v not_o spare_v his_o son_n but_o let_v out_o the_o vial_n of_o his_o wrath_n upon_o he_o in_o a_o most_o dreadful_a manner_n if_o we_o do_v but_o consider_v first_o that_o christ_n god_n bless_v for_o ever_o shall_v come_v and_o be_v in_o the_o form_n of_o a_o servant_n shall_v be_v a_o man_n of_o sorrow_n as_o the_o scripture_n speak_v that_o in_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o his_o life_n shall_v live_v a_o contemptible_a life_n before_o man_n and_o undergo_v grievous_a suffering_n but_o because_o i_o must_v hasten_v do_v but_o look_v upon_o christ_n in_o his_o agony_n and_o upon_o the_o cross_n at_o his_o death_n and_o there_o you_o will_v see_v the_o dreadful_a displeasure_n of_o god_n against_o sin_n and_o in_o nothing_o more_o than_o that_o true_o there_o be_v the_o bright_a glass_n of_o the_o law_n wherein_o we_o may_v see_v the_o evil_n of_o sin_n but_o there_o be_v the_o red_a glass_n of_o the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n and_o in_o that_o we_o may_v see_v more_o of_o the_o evil_a of_o sin_n than_o if_o god_n shall_v let_v we_o down_o to_o hell_n and_o if_o there_o we_o shall_v see_v all_o the_o torture_n and_o torment_n of_o the_o damn_a in_o hell_n see_v they_o how_o they_o lie_v swelter_a under_o god_n wrath_n there_o it_o be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o behold_v sin_n through_o the_o red_a glass_n of_o the_o suffering_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o of_o his_o agony_n and_o give_v i_o leave_v a_o little_a to_o show_v to_o you_o how_o god_n let_v out_o himself_o against_o his_o son_n when_o he_o come_v into_o the_o garden_n and_o a_o little_a before_o when_o he_o be_v to_o die_v and_o suffer_v upon_o the_o cross_n and_o for_o this_o consider_v these_o two_o thing_n first_o the_o several_a expression_n the_o holy_a ghost_n use_v in_o the_o several_a evangelist_n for_o the_o set_n out_o of_o those_o dreadful_a thing_n christ_n suffer_v as_o a_o fruit_n of_o god_n displeasure_n upon_o he_o 1_o one_o evangelist_n say_v that_o christ_n be_v very_o vallatum_fw-la sorrowful_a even_o to_o the_o death_n mat._n 26._o 38._o he_o begin_v to_o be_v the_o word_n in_o the_o original_a signify_v compass_v about_o with_o sorrow_n to_o have_v sorrow_n round_o about_o he_o and_o as_o it_o be_v beset_v and_o besiege_v with_o grief_n and_o it_o be_v

be_v to_o endure_v for_o the_o sin_n of_o man_n he_o be_v sorrowful_a to_o the_o death_n in_o the_o apprehension_n of_o it_o you_o it_o may_v be_v upon_o the_o sight_n of_o sin_n content_v

2_o another_o evangelist_n tell_v we_o he_o begin_v to_o be_v amaze_v mark_z 14._o 33._o that_o be_v when_o christ_n come_v to_o drink_v the_o cup_n of_o the_o wrath_n of_o his_o father_n due_a for_o our_o sin_n he_o stand_v amaze_v at_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o dreadfulness_n of_o that_o cup_n he_o be_v to_o drink_v of_o because_o he_o know_v what_o god_n wrath_n be_v he_o understand_v what_o it_o be_v before_o he_o drink_v of_o it_o and_o this_o make_v he_o stand_v amaze_v at_o it_o many_o sinner_n hear_v god_n wrath_n and_o this_o make_v they_o fear_n but_o they_o be_v not_o amaze_v at_o it_o they_o can_v pass_v it_o away_o and_o they_o be_v not_o affect_v with_o it_o afterward_o because_o they_o understand_v it_o not_o they_o know_v not_o what_o it_o be_v for_o a_o creature_n to_o

of_o it_o when_o he_o be_v to_o drink_v it_o 3_o another_o evangelist_n have_v this_o expression_n thes_n it_o be_v in_o luke_n 22._o 44._o christ_n begin_v to_o be_v in_o a_o agony_n now_o the_o

their_o choice_n many_o of_o you_o when_o it_o come_v to_o it_o will_v be_v loath_a to_o loose_v a_o groat_n than_o commit_v a_o sin_n loath_a to_o endure_v the_o least_o shame_n or_o a_o nickname_n than_o to_o commit_v a_o sin_n be_v there_o not_o many_o servant_n here_o or_o child_n will_v tell_v a_o lie_n when_o they_o have_v do_v a_o evil_a rather_o than_o suffer_v a_o little_a shame_n in_o

you_o know_v how_o it_o be_v with_o paul_n when_o he_o speak_v of_o affliction_n these_o be_v his_o expression_n but_o light_n and_o momentary_a but_o for_o a_o moment_n but_o they_o work_v a_o
