Next, as there are some times and cases in all these which call for Fasting with Prayer to be seriously gone about; so we may sin in reference to this duty many ways: As 1. When it is slighted, and not gone about at all; and thus men are guilty either 1. By contemning it, or 2 Counting it not necessary; or 3. By negligence, so that we will not be at pains to stir up our selves to a frame for it: Or 4. Will not leave our pleasures or work for it. 5. In not esteeming highly of it. 6. In not labouring to have fit opportunities to go about it. 7. In scarring at it as a burden. 8. In casting it up as Hypocrisy to others, and mocking at it in them. 9 In not joining in our affection with others we know are Fasting▪ 10. In our unfrequent use of it. 11. In neglecting causes that relate to the public, or to others; contenting our selves with what relateth to our own necessity▪ 12. In not being affected with our neglect of that duty, nor mourning for it, and repenting of it, nor being humbled under the many evils which the neglecting of it carrieth along with it. 13. At least neglecting on part or other of this duty of Fasting. 14. Not setting our selves seriously to be at the end designed in Fasting, which maketh us either neglect it, or go formally about it
