Divers practical cases of conscience satisfactorily resolved ... to which are added some counsels…

Christians, here now is meat for your Faith, What do all these holy Promises nothing move you? or carry little savour, or relish with them? What, shall the All-mighty God give it to thee under his own hands that thou art a freeman, ⟨p. 86⟩and thou make little account of it? shall he give thee thy protection, and thou lay it by as a useless paper that signifies little? O sirs, when your hearts are ready to faint because of the Sons of Anak that be in the way, when you see the black guard gaping upon you, and the King of Terrors levelling at you, and a wicked World armed with rage against you, and full of malice, and the thieves and conspirators in the bosom watching their opportunity to betray all to them, yet let not this discourage you: These were enough indeed to make a considering mans heart to melt, and die within him, but that the Covenant of Grace yields such ample relief against all. Oh be ever mindful of the Covenant: Remember what hath past this day between the Living God and your Souls: Watch O Christian, and stand fast, quit thee like a man. The Conquest is sure: Who would not fight with courage that hath assurance of the Victory.
