A33961	Defensative armour, against four of Sathan's most fiery darts viz. temptations to atheistical and blasphemous impressions and thoughts, self-murther, despair, and presumption : wherein is discoursed the nature of these temptations, the several tempters to these sins, the arguments ordinarily used by the tempters in the inforcing of them, and some proper advice is offered to those who are exercised with them / by J.C. D.D. ...	Collinges, John, 1623-1690.	1680 (1680)	Wing C5312; ESTC R12985	145,095	356

of_o sin_n you_o be_v not_o straighten_a in_o i_o where_o then_o be_v sinner_n straighten_a oh_o they_o be_v straighten_a in_o their_o own_o bowel_n they_o can_v find_v in_o their_o heart_n to_o consider_v their_o way_n to_o humble_v their_o soul_n for_o their_o sin_n to_o leave_v they_o and_o to_o turn_v unto_o god_n thus_o be_v they_o straighten_a in_o their_o own_o bowel_n and_o they_o will_v not_o come_v to_o christ_n that_o they_o may_v have_v life_n 2._o second_o to_o this_o suggestion_n doubtless_o we_o be_v to_o oppose_v what_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o the_o multitude_n and_o abundance_n of_o divine_a mercy_n psal_n 134._o 18._o if_o i_o shall_v count_v they_o say_v holy_a david_n they_o be_v more_o in_o number_n than_o the_o sand._n so_o isaiah_n 55._o v._o 6_o 7._o let_v he_o return_v unto_o the_o lord_n and_o he_o will_v have_v mercy_n upon_o he_o unto_o his_o god_n for_o he_o will_v abundant_o pardon_v thus_o you_o often_o read_v in_o scripture_n of_o a_o multitude_n of_o mercy_n tender_a mercy_n in_o god_n psal_n 5._o 7._o i_o will_v come_v into_o thy_o house_n in_o the_o multitude_n of_o thy_o mercy_n so_o psal_n 51._o 1._o have_v mercy_n upon_o i_o o_o god_n according_a to_o thy_o love_a kindness_n according_a to_o the_o multitude_n of_o thy_o tender_a mercy_n blot_v out_o my_o transgression_n so_o psal_n 69._o 13._o mercy_n in_o god_n be_v but_o one_o thing_n it_o be_v the_o goodness_n of_o god_n look_v upon_o one_o in_o misery_n and_o help_v and_o relieve_v he_o what_o do_v we_o read_v of_o a_o multitude_n of_o mercy_n certain_o it_o either_o signify_v god_n multiply_v act_n of_o goodness_n which_o be_v several_a branch_n spring_v out_o of_o the_o same_o root_n of_o goodness_n and_o mercy_n or_o else_o the_o term_n be_v use_v to_o signify_v unto_o we_o that_o there_o be_v a_o goodness_n in_o god_n proportionated_a to_o the_o multitude_n of_o sin_n and_o misery_n that_o be_v in_o we_o to_o what_o end_n do_v we_o read_v of_o multitude_n of_o mercy_n in_o god_n if_o it_o be_v not_o to_o relieve_v we_o groan_v under_o multitude_n of_o sin_n 3._o again_o consider_v it_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n with_o god_n to_o pardon_v multitude_n of_o sin_n as_o few_o yea_o he_o never_o pardon_v the_o sin_n of_o any_o one_o soul_n but_o he_o pardon_v a_o multitude_n god_n must_v vail_v his_o justice_n and_o deny_v himself_o in_o his_o vindicative_a justice_n to_o pardon_v one_o sin_n there_o be_v no_o one_o sin_n but_o have_v a_o kind_n of_o infiniteness_n in_o it_o or_o rather_o contract_v a_o infinite_a gild_n for_o every_o sin_n which_o we_o commit_v be_v against_o a_o infinite_a god_n against_o infinite_a justice_n and_o goodness_n and_o nothing_o but_o infinite_a goodness_n can_v remit_v it_o and_o pass_v it_o by_o and_o a_o infinite_a remission_n as_o easy_o extend_v to_o a_o multitude_n of_o sin_n as_o to_o a_o few_o so_o that_o as_o that_o good_a prince_n say_v unto_o god_n in_o the_o recognition_n of_o his_o power_n it_o be_v easy_a with_o thou_o to_o save_v by_o many_o as_o by_o few_o so_o we_o may_v say_v in_o the_o case_n before_o we_o it_o be_v as_o easy_a with_o god_n to_o save_v from_o many_o from_o the_o guilt_n of_o many_o many_o thousand_o of_o sin_n as_o from_o the_o guilt_n of_o a_o few_o especial_o which_o i_o shall_v have_v put_v in_o consider_v there_o be_v also_o a_o infiniteness_n in_o the_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d in_o the_o redemption_n price_n that_o be_v pay_v if_o indeed_o that_o have_v be_v scant_o something_o may_v have_v be_v colourable_o object_v but_o that_o be_v commensurate_a to_o the_o goodness_n that_o be_v in_o god_n the_o person_n that_o die_v for_o our_o sin_n be_v god-man_n a_o infinite_a person_n his_o blood_n be_v of_o infinite_a virtue_n as_o to_o satisfaction_n indeed_o the_o papist_n strain_v a_o great_a deal_n too_o far_o to_o say_v that_o the_o least_o drop_n of_o christ_n blood_n be_v sufficient_a to_o ransom_n a_o world_n that_o be_v a_o

a_o nuda_fw-la sufficientia_fw-la we_o be_v not_o speak_v now_o of_o the_o sufficientia_fw-la ordinata_fw-la how_o far_o christ_n ordain_v it_o to_o be_v sufficient_a but_o that_o i_o say_v there_o be_v a_o bare_a and_o naked_a sufficiency_n in_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n for_o more_o than_o it_o shall_v ever_o be_v apply_v to_o this_o must_v be_v grant_v by_o all_o who_o will_v acknowledge_v a_o infiniteness_n in_o christ_n person_n nor_o yet_o shall_v the_o papist_n from_o hence_n augment_v their_o church_n treasury_n to_o the_o value_n of_o a_o farthing_n christ_n never_o leave_v the_o

dispose_v of_o from_o before_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n even_o from_o the_o time_n that_o the_o l●mb_n be_v first_o slay_v in_o god_n eternal_a counsel_n let_v they_o look_v to_o answer_v the_o papist_n in_o this_o point_n who_o maintain_v universal_a redemption_n in_o the_o latitude_n of_o it_o but_o i_o add_v far_o under_o this_o head_n that_o god_n never_o pardon_v sin_n to_o any_o soul_n but_o he_o pardon_v a_o multitude_n it_o be_v true_a there_o be_v not_o a_o parity_n in_o man_n and_o woman_n sin_n either_o as_o to_o the_o quality_n or_o quantity_n but_o i_o say_v god_n never_o pardon_v any_o but_o multitude_n of_o sin_n the_o righteous_a fall_v seven_o time_n in_o a_o day_n sin_n be_v in_o every_o soul_n and_o it_o may_v say_v our_o name_n be_v legion_n for_o we_o be_v many_o if_o multitude_n of_o sin_n can_v not_o be_v pardon_v no_o sinner_n can_v be_v pardon_v 2._o temptation_n but_o then_o say_v the_o tempter_n or_o the_o tempt_a soul_n if_o you_o will_v ah_o but_o my_o sin_n have_v receive_v very_o high_a and_o great_a aggravation_n i_o have_v sin_v against_o light_n against_o love_n i_o know_v i_o ought_v not_o to_o do_v what_o i_o do_v i_o be_v warn_v by_o minister_n check_v by_o my_o own_o conscience_n otherwise_o move_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n i_o have_v mercy_n above_o thousand_o of_o other_o i_o sin_v against_o all_o etc._n etc._n to_o which_o i_o answer_v 1._o this_o be_v indeed_o a_o very_a sad_a circumstance_n a_o load_n of_o this_o nature_n do_v often_o lie_v very_o heavy_a upon_o the_o conscience_n and_o a_o guilt_n of_o this_o nature_n require_v a_o further_a and_o deep_a humiliation_n confession_n contrition_n but_o the_o question_n be_v whether_o such_o sin_n be_v capable_a of_o a_o pardon_n yea_o or_o no_o if_o they_o be_v capable_a of_o forgiveness_n from_o a_o gracious_a god_n all_o this_o be_v no_o ground_n for_o thou_o to_o despair_n and_o cast_v away_o hope_n refuse_v to_o be_v comfort_v 2._o if_o they_o be_v not_o capable_a of_o pardon_n it_o must_v be_v so_o determine_v in_o scripture_n now_o the_o revelation_n of_o god_n in_o his_o holy_a word_n have_v no_o where_o determine_v that_o no_o person_n that_o have_v sin_v against_o his_o light_n shall_v be_v forgive_v and_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o conclude_v to_o our_o own_o prejudice_n and_o discouragement_n as_o to_o a_o act_n of_o god_n what_o he_o have_v no_o where_n in_o his_o word_n reveal_v 3._o three_o there_o be_v no_o sinner_n pardon_v but_o have_v sin_v against_o his_o light_n and_o against_o love_n so_o that_o the_o question_n seem_v not_o to_o be_v about_o the_o thing_n but_o about_o the_o degree_n not_o whether_o one_o who_o have_v sin_v against_o light_n and_o love_n can_v be_v pardon_v but_o whether_o one_o who_o have_v sin_v against_o so_o much_o light_n and_o so_o much_o love_n can_v be_v forgive_v and_o it_o will_v be_v very_o hard_a for_o thou_o to_o assign_v sinning_n against_o such_o degree_n of_o light_n and_o love_n as_o none_o ever_o sin_v against_o and_o be_v save_v there_o be_v in_o scripture_n great_a instance_n of_o pardon_v sinner_n who_o yet_o sin_v against_o great_a degree_n of_o light_n and_o love_n too_o take_v but_o the_o instance_n of_o david_n and_o peter_n david_n be_v a_o man_n of_o much_o light_n he_o be_v you_o know_v one_o of_o the_o penman_n of_o holy_a writ_n he_o be_v a_o man_n much_o belove_v of_o god_n he_o be_v style_v the_o man_n according_a to_o god_n own_o heart_n god_n mind_v he_o of_o how_o much_o he_o have_v do_v for_o he_o take_v he_o from_o the_o sheepfold_n and_o make_v he_o king_n over_o israel_n and_o judah_n give_v his_o master_n crown_n house_n and_o wife_n yea_o and_o

there_o be_v many_o tree_n of_o forbid_a fruit_n which_o we_o may_v not_o eat_v the_o fruit_n of_o lest_o we_o die_v god_n have_v not_o say_v to_o any_o thou_o shall_v not_o marry_v but_o he_o have_v

the_o divine_a will_n and_o hear_v of_o a_o immortal_a state_n of_o soul_n and_o of_o a_o eternity_n which_o wait_v for_o all_o man_n after_o this_o life_n and_o that_o either_o in_o bliss_n or_o

that_o believe_v the_o scripture_n and_o to_o cherish_v in_o himself_o a_o hope_n of_o a_o eternal_a happiness_n be_v to_o close_v with_o such_o notion_n and_o false_a representation_n of_o the_o divine_a will_n as_o may_v serve_v to_o cherish_v his_o hope_n for_o a_o live_n with_o god_n for_o ever_o he_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n enjoy_v those_o lust_n and_o sensual_a satisfaction_n to_o which_o he_o be_v most_o bias_v and_o incline_v hence_o it_o be_v that_o he_o presume_v that_o be_v he_o build_v up_o unto_o himself_o hope_n and_o confidence_n of_o god_n favour_n to_o he_o as_o well_o as_o other_o and_o that_o he_o shall_v when_o he_o die_v go_v to_o heaven_n whatever_o minister_n say_v who_o will_v put_v a_o yoke_n upon_o people_n neck_n that_o no_o flesh_n be_v able_a to_o bear_v now_o it_o may_v be_v worth_a a_o enquiry_n what_o false_a notion_n those_o be_v upon_o which_o man_n build_v up_o these_o presumption_n and_o which_o the_o devil_n the_o world_n or_o our_o own_o lust_n suggest_v and_o build_v upon_o as_o upon_o a_o sandy_a foundation_n i_o shall_v name_v some_o and_o only_o in_o this_o place_n show_v you_o that_o if_o these_o notion_n be_v true_a they_o may_v give_v a_o foundation_n for_o such_o confidence_n at_o least_o some_o of_o they_o other_o not_z i_o shall_v reserve_v my_o demonstration_n of_o the_o falsehood_n of_o they_o until_o i_o come_v to_o the_o applicatory_a part_n of_o my_o discourse_n 1._o that_o god_n will_v not_o eternal_o condemn_v any_o man_n or_o woman_n that_o he_o have_v make_v especial_o not_o any_o within_o the_o bosom_n of_o the_o church_n this_o have_v not_o be_v the_o avow_a opinion_n of_o many_o who_o have_v publish_v their_o sentiment_n to_o the_o world_n we_o read_v of_o huberus_n and_o paccius_n and_o some_o two_o or_o three_o more_o who_o have_v adventure_v to_o publish_v such_o sentiment_n to_o the_o world_n but_o by_o the_o life_n of_o too_o many_o it_o be_v proclaim_v that_o there_o be_v too_o many_o such_o atheist_n in_o the_o world_n for_o they_o wallow_v in_o such_o prodigious_a filthiness_n as_o it_o be_v impossible_a but_o that_o they_o must_v conclude_v that_o if_o there_o be_v a_o hell_n and_o it_o be_v not_o to_o stand_v empty_a they_o be_v like_a to_o go_v to_o it_o for_o none_o can_v live_v more_o prodigious_o lewd_a and_o profane_a life_n than_o they_o do_v now_o indeed_o if_o this_o notion_n be_v true_a if_o man_n can_v but_o persuade_v themselves_o that_o they_o be_v god_n creature_n it_o be_v enough_o for_o they_o to_o be_v confident_a of_o god_n favour_n and_o their_o go_v at_o last_o to_o heaven_n 2._o a_o second_o notion_n which_o some_o have_v take_v up_o be_v that_o christ_n have_v dye_v for_o all_o and_o all_o those_o for_o who_o he_o die_v shall_v be_v save_v the_o latter_a part_n of_o this_o be_v hold_v by_o no_o learned_a man_n that_o i_o know_v though_o if_o i_o can_v admit_v the_o former_a i_o shall_v not_o be_v very_o difficult_a as_o to_o the_o latter_a there_o be_v as_o i_o have_v former_o tell_v you_o three_o opinion_n concern_v redemption_n as_o to_o the_o object_n of_o it_o some_o say_n he_o die_v equal_o for_o all_o as_o much_o for_o judas_n as_o peter_n thus_o say_v the_o arminian_o other_o that_o he_o die_v for_o all_o but_o not_o equal_o he_o purchase_v a_o certainty_n of_o salvation_n for_o some_o a_o possibility_n for_o all_o thus_o the_o methedists_n or_o those_o that_o be_v for_o the_o middle_a way_n other_o say_v he_o die_v for_o no_o more_o than_o the_o elect._n i_o intend_v not_o to_o meddle_v with_o this_o great_a question_n only_o i_o say_v no_o judicious_a and_o learned_a man_n that_o have_v hold_v either_o of_o the_o two_o first_o opinion_n have_v say_v or_o will_v say_v that_o all_o those_o for_o who_o christ_n die_v shall_v be_v save_v all_o agree_v in_o the_o negative_a of_o that_o but_o i_o fear_v abundance_n of_o less_o judicious_a people_n be_v of_o that_o mind_n and_o here_o build_v up_o their_o presumptuous_a hope_n 3._o a_o three_o notion_n be_v that_o sin_n be_v wash_v away_o in_o baptism_n there_o be_v some_o learned_a and_o great_a man_n indeed_o who_o have_v think_v that_o the_o gild_n of_o adam_n sin_n yea_o all_o original_a sin_n be_v wash_v away_o in_o baptism_n and_o man_n justify_v in_o it_o but_o they_o add_v if_o by_o actual_a sin_n they_o put_v not_o a_o bar_n so_o as_o all_o the_o relief_n that_o opinion_n afford_v if_o it_o be_v true_a as_o to_o person_n die_v in_o their_o infancy_n as_o to_o who_o they_o be_v as_o gentle_a as_o augustine_n be_v judge_v a_o hard_a father_n but_o i_o shall_v not_o enlarge_v on_o this_o for_o there_o can_v be_v no_o other_o pretence_n for_o this_o as_o to_o grow_v person_n than_o their_o admission_n into_o the_o catholic_n church_n by_o that_o ordinance_n and_o so_o it_o in_o part_n fall_v in_o with_o the_o first_o notion_n i_o name_v 4._o a_o four_o notion_n be_v that_o man_n and_o woman_n have_v their_o life_n in_o their_o own_o hand_n a_o power_n in_o themselves_o to_o believe_v and_o do_v whatsoever_o god_n have_v require_v of_o they_o in_o order_n to_o their_o salvation_n so_o as_o they_o shall_v not_o need_v

before_o their_o death_n to_o bethink_v themselves_o and_o to_o turn_v unto_o god_n 5._o under_o a_o five_o head_n may_v come_v man_n false_a notion_n of_o faith_n repentance_n and_o holiness_n they_o

command_v in_o god_n word_n or_o a_o resolution_n to_o do_v they_o if_o they_o have_v time_n so_o as_o if_o they_o do_v upon_o their_o deathbed_n profess_v they_o die_v in_o the_o faith_n and_o
