A93682	A hand-kercheffe for a disconsolate soule, to wipe away his sinne, and to keep him from despaire, as though they had never been committed. / By Samuel Spinckes, minister of Gods word.	Spinckes, Samuel.	1651 (1651)	Wing S4981; Thomason E633_7; ESTC R206473	19,356	31

there_o be_v no_o god_n as_o also_o to_o deny_v the_o providence_n and_o power_n of_o god_n harp_v that_o all_o thing_n happen_v by_o fortune_n and_o chance_n sometime_o again_o i_o be_o ready_a to_o deny_v christ_n the_o second_o person_n in_o the_o holy_a and_o sacred_a trinity_n and_o sometime_o i_o be_o ready_a to_o lay_v violent_a hand_n upon_o myself_o and_o thus_o to_o sin_v sometime_o against_o the_o first_o table_n and_o sometime_o against_o the_o second_o yea_o and_o although_o i_o pray_v to_o be_v free_a there_o from_o yet_o i_o can_v well_o i_o shall_v tell_v thou_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o satan_n be_v thy_o utter_a enemy_n and_o for_o that_o cause_n both_o he_o and_o the_o world_n and_o the_o flesh_n will_v not_o leave_v assault_v thou_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o thou_o doubte_v and_o think_v withal_o that_o thou_o ought_v not_o to_o apply_v the_o favour_n and_o mercy_n of_o god_n unto_o thyself_o unto_o these_o i_o full_o answer_v that_o these_o temptation_n and_o corruption_n may_v sometime_o be_v find_v even_o in_o the_o best_a of_o god_n child_n yea_o in_o those_o upon_o who_o god_n have_v bestow_v a_o excellent_a measure_n of_o grace_n the_o which_o either_o arise_v from_o the_o corruption_n of_o their_o own_o nature_n from_o which_o they_o be_v not_o full_o purge_v and_o in_o which_o there_o be_v the_o seed_n of_o all_o these_o sin_n of_o atheism_n infidelity_n and_o the_o like_a or_o else_o from_o the_o temptation_n of_o satan_n from_o which_o they_o neither_o be_v nor_o can_v be_v free_a so_o long_o as_o they_o live_v in_o this_o vale_n of_o misery_n paul_n the_o apostle_n be_v often_o buffet_v with_o satan_n temptation_n peter_n have_v a_o shrewd_a fall_n when_o he_o deny_v his_o master_n noah_n lot_n and_o saythfull_a

from_o these_o till_o thou_o be_v a_o member_n of_o the_o church_n triumphant_a which_o shall_v be_v in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v for_o first_o our_o regeneration_n be_v not_o full_o perfect_v in_o

his_o faithful_a one_o may_v be_v deliver_v from_o it_o yet_o know_v this_o also_o that_o there_o will_v be_v a_o combat_n in_o thou_o if_o thou_o be_v god_n even_o between_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o

for_o a_o time_n when_o upon_o true_a repentance_n thou_o be_v reconcile_v unto_o god_n yet_o thy_o enemy_n will_v adventure_v again_o and_o thou_o shall_v be_v sure_a of_o many_o battle_n and_o

why_o not_o to_o saint_n paul_n i_o answer_v the_o state_n of_o the_o apostle_n require_v it_o be_v a_o member_n of_o the_o church_n militant_a that_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v free_a lest_o he_o may_v grow_v secure_a leave_v off_o fight_v and_o so_o cease_v to_o be_v a_o soldier_n which_o we_o must_v not_o do_v in_o this_o life_n for_o we_o then_o break_v our_o vow_n and_o oath_n make_v by_o our_o

say_v saint_n bernard_n to_o suggest_v evil_a motion_n but_o it_o be_v our_o part_n and_o duty_n not_o to_o consent_v unto_o they_o for_o as_o often_o as_o we_o resist_v so_o often_o we_o overcome_v the_o devil_n and_o we_o thereby_o do_v honour_n our_o god_n who_o visit_v we_o that_o we_o shall_v fight_v who_o help_v we_o that_o we_o may_v overcome_v and_o who_o strengthen_v we_o that_o we_o

that_o see_v our_o saviour_n as_o i_o show_v you_o a_o little_a before_o be_v so_o tempt_v to_o such_o grievous_a temptation_n therefore_o let_v none_o think_v to_o be_v free_a but_o yet_o comfort_v thyself_o with_o this_o that_o god_n who_o be_v thy_o love_a father_n in_o christ_n have_v the_o devil_n in_o chain_n and_o as_o he_o stay_v the_o wave_n of_o the_o sea_n at_o his_o pleasure_n job_n 38.8_o so_o he_o hold_v satan_n as_o it_o be_v with_o bit_n and_o bridle_n that_o he_o can_v tempt_v thou_o not_o otherwise_o nor_o any_o long_o than_o god_n see_v for_o thy_o good_a as_o be_v evident_a by_o the_o example_n of_o job_n job_n 1.12_o and_o if_o the_o child_n of_o god_n be_v tempt_v and_o overcome_v by_o any_o assault_n yet_o upon_o true_a repentance_n and_o come_n unto_o
