Thus do many forsake their own mercies, breed their own disquiet, and are injurious to their own peace. When God hath spoken Peace, and Peace to their Souls: yet they return back again to folly; to the folly of Unbelieving, Doubting, Questioning of Gods love. And no marvel, if such do want Peace.

Men, that will forgo their evidences, give up their claim and title to Christ. Men whom Satan can make unsay what they know ⟨p. 90⟩God hath said to their hearts, may soon sit down in dumb silence and discouragement.

If when God hath manifested himself to you; hath come and supped with you; hath given you the white stone of absolution, the Hidden Manna of comfort and consolation; those manifest experiments of his love: and yet you will join Issue with Satan, give way to doubts: No marvel if you disturb your peace; bring insufferable fears and disquiets upon your selves. And it were just with God, to leave you to the doubts and mis-givings of your own hearts; and never to give you a word of Peace more: but suffer you to bring your grey hairs with sorrow to the Grave; seeing nothing will satisfy you.
