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

sin_n itself_o they_o shall_v find_v this_o disposition_n in_o their_o soul_n at_o such_o a_o time_n as_o they_o be_v even_o afraid_a god_n will_v destroy_v they_o for_o sin_n they_o even_o then_o desire_n god_n may_v be_v glorify_v though_o i_o perish_v let_v god_n be_v glorify_v but_o those_o that_o avoid_v sin_n out_o of_o fear_n when_o they_o apprehend_v there_o be_v no_o hope_n they_o be_v ready_a to_o fly_v in_o god_n face_n nay_o if_o i_o must_v be_v damn_v i_o will_v be_v damn_v for_o somewhat_o if_o i_o must_v perish_v i_o will_v perish_v for_o somewhat_o but_o that_o soul_n that_o

with_o it_o some_o avoid_a sin_n out_o of_o dislike_n and_o hatred_n of_o sin_n and_o do_v thou_o see_v a_o beauty_n in_o these_o and_o do_v thou_o say_v oh_o that_o i_o be_v in_o such_o a_o condition_n those_o that_o can_v see_v the_o excellency_n of_o grace_n in_o other_o and_o prize_n and_o love_v it_o in_o other_o certain_o there_o be_v some_o seed_n of_o that_o grace_n in_o their_o soul_n so_o now_o they_o that_o have_v no_o grace_n envy_v other_o that_o have_v grace_n but_o they_o that_o have_v grace_n rejoice_v in_o those_o that_o they_o see_v have_v any_o grace_n this_o be_v the_o second_o particular_a rebuke_v those_o that_o avoid_v sin_n mere_o out_o of_o fear_n of_o affliction_n together_o with_o satisfaction_n to_o that_o case_n of_o conscience_n because_o i_o know_v it_o lie_v heavy_a upon_o man_n and_o woman_n soul_n three_o the_o consideration_n of_o this_o point_n do_v rebuke_v such_o as_o be_v so_o shy_a of_o affliction_n as_o that_o they_o will_v fall_v into_o sin_n to_o prevent_v affliction_n certain_o this_o be_v a_o foolish_a choice_n for_o any_o to_o be_v so_o afraid_a of_o affliction_n as_o to_o prevent_v affliction_n rather_o venture_v upon_o sin_n as_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v see_v a_o craggy_a way_n and_o he_o will_v rather_o turn_v into_o a_o puddle_o way_n one_o all_o mire_n and_o dirt_n than_o endure_v one_o hard_a and_o craggy_a thou_o see_v the_o way_n of_o god_n hard_a and_o craggy_a and_o thou_o turn_v into_o the_o puddle_o and_o dirty_a way_n of_o sin_n to_o avoid_v that_o hard_a craggy_a way_n well_o if_o god_n have_v a_o love_n to_o thou_o he_o will_v bring_v thou_o back_o again_o and_o thou_o must_v go_v that_o way_n that_o thou_o will_v not_o now_o augustine_n have_v this_o expression_n in_o his_o confession_n say_v he_o when_o god_n first_o convince_v i_o i_o be_v convince_v of_o the_o rightness_n of_o god_n way_n but_o i_o see_v the_o trouble_n in_o it_o and_o i_o cry_v out_o it_o please_v not_o i_o well_o to_o go_v in_o such_o troublesome_a way_n so_o many_o man_n and_o woman_n be_v convince_v of_o god_n way_n but_o they_o shall_v suffer_v such_o trouble_n in_o they_o and_o they_o must_v go_v through_o such_o traits_fw-fr and_o to_o prevent_v this_o they_o will_v choose_v sin_n certain_o brethren_n it_o be_v not_o long_o since_o there_o be_v a_o time_n that_o those_o that_o make_v conscience_n of_o sin_n be_v subject_a to_o many_o trouble_n and_o suffer_v much_o when_o we_o know_v if_o a_o man_n depart_v from_o evil_a it_o be_v enough_o to_o make_v he_o a_o prey_n i_o beseech_v you_o see_v if_o you_o do_v not_o to_o prevent_v some_o suffering_n commit_v some_o sin_n some_o of_o you_o when_o bring_v to_o be_v swear_v vassal_n to_o those_o court_n that_o never_o be_v by_o god_n institution_n have_v you_o not_o some_o remorse_n in_o conscience_n i_o mean_v the_o churchwarden_n as_o they_o style_v they_o and_o when_o you_o be_v put_v to_o such_o oath_n have_v you_o never_o inward_a regreet_n in_o your_o conscience_n but_o yet_o you_o must_v be_v excommunicate_v if_o you_o do_v not_o take_v the_o oath_n and_o if_o you_o do_v than_o you_o bind_v yourselves_o not_o only_o to_o be_v their_o vassal_n which_o be_v not_o of_o god_n but_o beside_o you_o bind_v yourselves_o to_o be_v persecutor_n of_o the_o saint_n by_o it_o for_o certain_o the_o fulfil_n of_o all_o their_o cannon_n it_o be_v mere_o persecution_n and_o yet_o you_o be_v their_o swear_a vassal_n and_o yet_o because_o you_o be_v afraid_a of_o trouble_n you_o venture_v and_o make_v bold_a with_o your_o conscience_n oh_o look_v back_o to_o these_o thing_n if_o you_o will_v say_v now_o minister_n speak_v against_o such_o thing_n you_o shall_v have_v do_v so_o two_o or_o three_o year_n ago_o for_o my_o own_o part_n i_o do_v then_o two_o three_o four_o or_o five_o year_n ago_o and_o be_v of_o the_o same_o mind_n i_o be_o now_o and_o through_o the_o strength_n of_o christ_n and_o god_n mercy_n to_o i_o i_o venture_v somewhat_o and_o therefore_o i_o may_v the_o more_o free_o and_o bold_o speak_v now_o not_o because_o it_o be_v mere_o to_o keep_v from_o danger_n that_o i_o have_v speak_v no_o more_o for_o i_o do_v speak_v it_o heretofore_o but_o now_o look_v back_o what_o regreet_v of_o conscience_n you_o have_v and_o yet_o mere_o for_o fear_n of_o affliction_n thou_o pase_v through_o that_o regreet_n of_o conscience_n it_o be_v just_a with_o god_n to_o make_v affliction_n more_o sore_a and_o heavy_a and_o those_o that_o will_v avoid_v the_o affliction_n by_o sin_n god_n may_v just_o bring_v back_o that_o affliction_n but_o this_o will_v be_v a_o large_a argument_n to_o speak_v to_o those_o that_o will_v not_o venture_v upon_o suffering_n but_o run_v upon_o sin_n four_o this_o rebuke_n such_o that_o when_o they_o be_v under_o affliction_n yet_o they_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o sensible_a of_o affliction_n than_o of_o sin_n this_o be_v against_o the_o point_n that_o say_v there_o be_v more_o evil_a in_o sin_n than_o in_o affliction_n and_o yet_o when_o you_o be_v under_o affliction_n you_o be_v more_o sensible_a of_o the_o evil_a of_o affliction_n than_o of_o sin_n there_o be_v divers_a sort_n of_o these_o and_o divers_a thing_n to_o be_v say_v to_o these_o 1_o as_o some_o profane_a wicked_a man_n that_o commit_v horrible_a wickedness_n that_o it_o be_v a_o wonder_n their_o conscience_n fly_v not_o in_o their_o face_n and_o tear_n not_o their_o heart_n out_o of_o their_o bosom_n for_o the_o woeful_a guilt_n upon_o they_o and_o yet_o they_o be_v never_o stir_v but_o when_o god_n hand_n be_v upon_o they_o in_o some_o grievous_a sickness_n they_o cry_v out_o for_o pain_n but_o not_o one_o whit_n sensible_a of_o sin_n that_o never_o come_v in_o their_o mind_n but_o their_o pain_n and_o disease_n and_o when_o their_o friend_n come_v they_o complain_v of_o grievous_a night_n and_o what_o heat_n they_o be_v in_o with_o their_o fever_n and_o how_o they_o burn_v and_o have_v be_v torment_v but_o not_o a_o word_n of_o sin_n all_o their_o guilt_n the_o sabbath_n break_v oath_n company_n keep_v opposition_n of_o goodness_n this_o lie_v not_o upon_o their_o conscience_n at_o all_o oh_o these_o be_v wretched_a creature_n besot_v guilty_a hard_a heart_a leave_v of_o god_n to_o the_o day_n of_o his_o righteous_a judgement_n 2_o other_o when_o they_o be_v under_o god_n hand_n they_o lie_v fret_v and_o vex_v and_o murmur_a and_o repine_v as_o solomon_n say_v prov._n 19_o 3._o man_n pervert_v his_o way_n and_o his_o heart_n fret_v

thou_o frete_a against_o god_n for_o affliction_n 3_o a_o three_o sort_n and_o these_o principal_o i_o intend_v and_o they_o be_v such_o that_o when_o they_o be_v in_o affliction_n will_v complain_v much_o of_o sin_n and_o seem_v to_o put_v all_o the_o trouble_n upon_o sin_n but_o in_o truth_n their_o trouble_n be_v more_o for_o affliction_n than_o sin_n now_o i_o will_v find_v out_o these_o it_o will_v require_v time_n i_o suppose_v i_o may_v cull_v out_o a_o great_a many_o that_o it_o may_v be_v make_v a_o great_a complaint_n of_o sin_n and_o yet_o the_o truth_n be_v that_o which_o lie_v at_o the_o heart_n and_o pinch_v there_o be_v affliction_n rather_o than_o sin_n how_o do_v you_o know_v this_o if_o a_o man_n come_v and_o complain_v oh_o this_o wretched_a heart_n of_o i_o and_o pray_v help_v i_o against_o it_o how_o can_v you_o tell_v it_o be_v for_o affliction_n and_o not_o for_o sin_n perhaps_o they_o have_v have_v great_a loss_n by_o
