The Morning exercise [at] Cri[ppleg]ate, or, Several cases of conscience practically resolved

There are four kinds or degrees of falling, which the people of God are subject to; And four kinds or degrees to which the wicked are subject; and each latter is worse then other in them both.

1. The first and lightest fall of the godly,¹ is that in their daily combat between flesh and spirit, set out Rom. 7. at large, and Gal. 5.17. ⟨p. 68⟩We cannot do what we would, but fail or fall short after our best endeavours. Our duties are imperfect, graces defective, our gold and silver drossy, our wine mixed with water. Sin deceiveth, surpriseth, captiveth, slayeth, yet reigneth not all this while. It is not I, but sin that dwells in me. I consent to the Law, I delight in the law of God, even in my inner man, &c.
