SECT. I.
I. Wherein doth it appear that sin is the souls disease, and the sickness thereof? In these particulars.
1.1 Sicknesses and diseases do abate and take away the Appetite. Sick men have not the Appetite to their food as men in health have. ⟨p. 144⟩So sin takes away the spiritual appetite of the Soul, that it doth not hunger after Christ, nor thirst after righteousness, and hinders its feeding upon Christ, and the Word of God, which is the spiritual food for the souls nourishment and growth.
