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

you_o may_v know_v they_o by_o this_o if_o you_o propound_v limit_n thus_o far_o you_o will_v go_v this_o certain_o be_v a_o natural_a work_n but_o when_o the_o heart_n let_v out_o itself_o to_o god_n

and_o live_v in_o such_o open_a sin_n and_o upon_o such_o and_o such_o ground_n you_o will_v abstain_v from_o such_o and_o such_o sin_n but_o if_o there_o be_v a_o supernatural_a work_n your_o heart_n

kind_n of_o infinitness_n of_o evil_n in_o it_o five_o sin_n have_v a_o kind_n of_o infiniteness_n in_o it_o in_o that_o it_o be_v the_o universal_a cause_n of_o all_o evil_a as_o god_n appear_v to_o be_v a_o infinite_a good_a because_o he_o be_v the_o universal_a cause_n of_o all_o good_a this_o do_v much_o set_v out_o the_o infiniteness_n of_o god_n goodness_n in_o that_o he_o be_v the_o

this_o be_v the_o five_o thing_n six_o there_o be_v a_o infiniteness_n of_o evil_a in_o sin_n it_o appear_v thus_o that_o as_o the_o infiniteness_n of_o good_a in_o god_n be_v shadow_v out_o unto_o we_o by_o all_o good_a thing_n and_o in_o as_o much_o as_o we_o and_o the_o scripture_n make_v use_v of_o all_o good_a thing_n to_o shadow_n out_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n this_o manifest_v a_o

this_o make_v it_o appear_v there_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o infiniteness_n of_o evil_a in_o it_o as_o thus_o that_o all_o those_o creature_n viper_n serpent_n dog_n cockatrice_n dragon_n wolf_n all_o deadly_a creature_n the_o scripture_n make_v use_v of_o but_o to_o shadow_n out_o the_o evil_a in_o sin_n as_o if_o the_o holy_a ghost_n shall_v say_v do_v you_o see_v any_o evil_n in_o such_o

menstruous_a clothes_n all_o this_o do_v but_o shadow_n out_o the_o evil_a in_o sin_n look_v at_o sickness_n leprosy_n plague_n and_o death_n itself_o and_o darkness_n any_o hideous_a evil_n all_o these_o do_v but_o shadow_v out_o the_o evil_a of_o sin_n we_o may_v mention_v many_o more_o to_o show_v you_o the_o evil_n of_o sin_n and_o in_o that_o the_o scripture_n make_v use_v of_o so_o many_o evil_a thing_n to_o show_v the_o evil_a of_o sin_n this_o show_v sin_n have_v a_o kind_n of_o infiniteness_n in_o it_o seven_o as_o god_n infinite_a goodness_n be_v set_v out_o thus_o that_o he_o be_v his_o own_o happiness_n and_o blessedness_n in_o this_o god_n do_v appear_v to_o be_v infinite_o good_a because_o he_o be_v his_o own_o good_a and_o happiness_n there_o be_v no_o high_a good_a to_o be_v the_o goodness_n of_o god_n no_o high_a blessedness_n to_o be_v the_o blessedness_n of_o god_n but_o himself_o because_o he_o be_v infinite_o good_a and_o bless_a so_o the_o scripture_n set_v out_o to_o we_o the_o evil_a of_o sin_n by_o itself_o because_o there_o be_v no_o great_a evil_a to_o set_v sin_n out_o by_o but_o by_o itself_o therefore_o this_o show_v there_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o

to_o be_v exceed_o miserable_a but_o that_o it_o may_v become_v exceed_o sinful_a so_o that_o the_o sinfulness_n of_o sin_n be_v that_o which_o set_v out_o the_o evil_a of_o sin_n more_o than_o any_o other_o thing_n do_v it_o be_v the_o speech_n of_o the_o heathen_a seneca_n it_o be_v the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n to_o have_v sin_n so_o it_o be_v the_o reward_n of_o virtue_n to_o have_v they_o
