SECT. XIII.
1What are the signs of a man that waxeth worse and worse under all the Means that God useth to make him better?
- 1Question Sixth.
MY purpose is not here to speak of the declinings of Grace in the hearts of Gods people, which never is so much (because not total) to denominate them absolutely bad, though they make them worse (because on the losing hand) being compared with themselves, when better in the lively actings and daily increase of grace; but of the growth of wicked men in sin and Impiety, which may be discerned by these symptoms.
