The Whole Treatise of the Cases of Conscience
The whole treatise of the cases of conscience distinguished into three books: the first whereof is revised and corrected in sundry places, and the other two annexed. Taught and delivered by M. W. Perkins in his holy-day lectures, carefully examined by his own briefs, and now published together for the common good, by T. Pickering Bachelor of Divinity. Whereunto is adjoined a twofold table: one of the heads and number of the questions propounded and resolved; another of the principal texts of Scripture which are either explained, or vindicated from corrupt interpretation.The whole treatise of the cases of conscience distinguished into three bookes: the first whereof is revised and corrected in sundrie places, and the other two annexed.

Fear, is a great part of the worship of God, which I prove by two places laid together. Esa. 29. 13. Matth. 15. 8, 9. wherein Fear and Worship, are taken for one and the same thing: for that which Isaiah calls Fear, Matthew calls Worship. Now in this fear, there be two things that serve to distinguish it from all other fears.
