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

consequence_n follow_v if_o sin_n be_v so_o great_a a_o evil_a as_o you_o have_v hear_v so_o much_o against_o god_n wrong_n god_n so_o much_o as_o it_o do_v and_o strike_v at_o god_n hence_o than_o we_o see_v the_o reason_n why_o god_n manifest_v such_o sore_a displeasure_n against_o sin_n we_o find_v brethren_n most_o dreadful_a manifestation_n of_o god_n displeasure_n against_o sin_n and_o the_o ground_n and_o bottom_n of_o they_o be_v in_o these_o thing_n which_o you_o have_v hear_v open_v unto_o you_o and_o indeed_o do_v you_o understand_v and_o believe_v what_o have_v be_v open_v unto_o you_o concern_v sin_n opposition_n of_o god_n you_o can_v not_o then_o wonder_v at_o god_n manifestation_n of_o his_o displeasure_n against_o sin_n there_o be_v manifold_a manifestation_n of_o god_n displeasure_n against_o sin_n which_o when_o they_o be_v speak_v of_o and_o open_v unto_o people_n that_o do_v not_o understand_v the_o dreadful_a evil_n that_o be_v in_o sin_n they_o stand_v and_o wonder_n at_o it_o and_o think_v oh_o they_o be_v hard_a and_o severe_a thing_n when_o minister_n reveal_v the_o threaten_n of_o god_n against_o sin_n oh_o say_v they_o god_n forbid_v we_o hope_v god_n be_v more_o merciful_a than_o so_o and_o all_o because_o they_o apprehend_v not_o what_o dreadful_a evil_n there_o be_v in_o sin_n that_o soul_n that_o apprehend_v and_o believe_v these_o particular_n that_o have_v be_v open_v unto_o you_o can_v but_o justify_v god_n when_o they_o hear_v the_o revelation_n and_o the_o manifestation_n of_o the_o displeasure_n of_o god_n against_o sin_n as_o now_o in_o these_o particular_n that_o which_o have_v be_v deliver_v be_v the_o bottom_n and_o ground_n of_o these_o that_o we_o shall_v mention_v and_o we_o see_v the_o reason_n of_o all_o these_o as_o first_o that_o dreadful_a manifestation_n of_o the_o displeasure_n of_o god_n against_o the_o angel_n that_o sin_v against_o he_o there_o be_v that_o revelation_n of_o the_o displeasure_n of_o god_n against_o the_o angel_n that_o may_v cause_v all_o our_o heart_n to_o tremble_v before_o the_o lord_n at_o the_o very_a thought_n and_o hear_n of_o it_o i_o beseech_v you_o consider_v you_o who_o think_v that_o god_n be_v only_o a_o god_n of_o mercy_n and_o god_n be_v not_o so_o severe_a against_o sin_n as_o many_o minister_n will_v make_v he_o do_v but_o attend_v to_o what_o i_o shall_v say_v unto_o you_o how_o god_n have_v manifest_v his_o displeasure_n against_o sin_n in_o the_o angel_n consider_v of_o these_o five_o or_o six_o particular_n i_o will_v but_o only_o mention_v they_o 1_o that_o god_n shall_v cast_v so_o many_o glorious_a creature_n as_o the_o angel_n be_v for_o ever_o from_o himself_o consider_v the_o excellency_n of_o their_o nature_n 2_o consider_v their_o multitude_n 3_o consider_v that_o the_o chain_n of_o darkness_n that_o they_o be_v cast_v into_o be_v eternal_a misery_n 4_o consider_v that_o this_o be_v but_o for_o one_o sin_n 5_o and_o consider_v that_o this_o be_v but_o the_o first_o sin_n that_o ever_o they_o commit_v 6_o last_o consider_v
to_o hurt_v one_o own_o soul_n or_o other_o so_o that_o be_v a_o most_o pesteferous_a estate_n &_o condition_n that_o give_v a_o man_n liberty_n to_o satisfy_v his_o lust_n the_o more_o brethren_n consider_v of_o this_o it_o be_v a_o most_o dreadful_a curse_n of_o god_n upon_o a_o man_n that_o god_n will_v let_v a_o man_n go_v on_o smothlie_o in_o way_n of_o sin_n without_o control_n that_o he_o shall_v have_v liberty_n without_o control_n if_o there_o be_v any_o brand_n of_o reprobation_n that_o one_o may_v give_v this_o be_v it_o as_o black_a a_o brand_n as_o can_v be_v give_v that_o god_n suffer_v a_o man_n to_o go_v on_o smooth_o in_o sin_n without_o any_o control_n that_o he_o can_v have_v full_a liberty_n it_o be_v a_o speech_n of_o barnard_n therefore_o do_v god_n spare_v the_o rich_a because_o his_o iniquity_n be_v not_o find_v only_o to_o displeasure_n but_o to_o hatred_n because_o god_n be_v not_o only_o now_o angry_a but_o he_o hate_v he_o for_o sin_n that_o be_v a_o speech_n of_o barnard_n therefore_o do_v god_n spare_v the_o rich_a and_o deliver_v many_o wicked_a man_n from_o affliction_n because_o sin_n be_v grow_v to_o the_o height_n that_o it_o be_v above_o god_n displeasure_n god_n may_v be_v displease_v with_o his_o child_n for_o sin_n but_o he_o do_v not_o come_v to_o hate_n they_o they_o be_v not_o child_n of_o hatred_n because_o of_o infirmity_n but_o now_o when_o god_n suffer_v a_o wicked_a man_n to_o go_v on_o smooth_o without_o any_o affliction_n in_o his_o way_n of_o sin_n and_o so_o take_v liberty_n in_o sin_n this_o man_n sin_n it_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v be_v grow_v to_o the_o height_n that_o it_o come_v to_o the_o very_a hatred_n of_o god_n not_o only_o to_o displeasure_n i_o remember_v barnard_n in_o another_o place_n call_v this_o kind_n of_o mercy_n in_o god_n to_o deliver_v man_n from_o affliction_n in_o a_o sinful_a way_n he_o call_v it_o a_o mercy_n more_o cruel_a than_o all_o anger_n and_o pray_v god_n to_o deliver_v he_o from_o that_o mercy_n that_o be_v that_o he_o shall_v go_v on_o prosperous_o in_o a_o wicked_a way_n and_o if_o you_o know_v all_o it_o will_v be_v one_o petition_n to_o god_n you_o in_o a_o prosperous_a way_n it_o will_v be_v one_o petition_v you_o will_v put_v up_o to_o god_n every_o day_n oh_o lord_n never_o let_v i_o prosper_v in_o a_o sinful_a way_n and_o course_n oh_o lord_n rather_o let_v any_o affliction_n be_v upon_o i_o than_o that_o my_o smoothness_n in_o my_o way_n shall_v make_v my_o sin_n more_o smooth_a and_o delightful_a i_o appeal_v to_o you_o mariner_n suppose_v you_o be_v sail_v near_o rock_n or_o sand_n and_o be_v becalm_v till_o you_o come_v just_a there_o where_o they_o be_v and_o then_o you_o shall_v have_v a_o wind_n come_v full_a upon_o you_o and_o fill_v your_o sail_n to_o the_o full_a your_o sail_n perhaps_o be_v all_o up_o and_o a_o wind_n come_v that_o fill_v they_o to_o the_o full_a with_o wind_n i_o but_o this_o wind_n carry_v you_o direct_o upon_o the_o sand_n or_o rock_n will_v you_o not_o rather_o have_v the_o wind_n a_o little_a more_o still_o will_v you_o not_o rather_o have_v a_o half_a wind_n or_o a_o

it_o be_v just_a as_o if_o you_o shall_v see_v a_o man_n rejoice_v that_o his_o sail_n be_v fill_v with_o wind_n and_o all_o his_o sail_n up_o when_o another_o that_o stand_v by_o know_v it_o carry_v

they_o on_o further_a to_o sin_n and_o wickedness_n upon_o the_o rock_n and_o sand_n to_o eternal_a destruction_n it_o be_v better_o for_o these_o man_n that_o their_o sail_n be_v down_o and_o all_o under_o the_o hatch_n a_o thousand_o time_n better_o than_o to_o have_v all_o the_o liberty_n to_o sin_n i_o beseeeh_o you_o brethren_n observe_v the_o difference_n between_o god_n dispensation_n and_o his_o deal_n with_o the_o wicked_a and_o his_o dispensation_n and_o deal_n with_o his_o child_n in_o this_o one_o thing_n it_o be_v very_o observable_a with_o the_o wicked_a god_n deal_v thus_o in_o just_a judgement_n he_o suffer_v stumble_v block_n to_o lie_v in_o the_o way_n of_o religion_n that_o they_o stumble_v therein_o and_o find_v abundance_n of_o difficulty_n when_o they_o have_v

if_o you_o can_v have_v your_o eye_n upon_o sin_n and_o remember_v what_o especial_a thing_n you_o have_v hear_v of_o the_o evil_a of_o sin_n and_o when_o temptation_n come_v you_o can_v say_v how_o
