Q. 6. What are the usual inducements to this Sin?
A. The usual inducements to this Sin are, (1.) Idleness and fullness of the Creatures, Ezek. 16.49, 50. Behold, this was the iniquity of thy si•er Sodom; Pride, fullness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her, and in her daughters, &c. (2.) Wanton Gestures, Isa. 3.16. Moreover, the Lord saith, because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with stretched •orth necks, and wanton e•es, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet. (3.) Filthy Communication, Eph. 5.4. Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient, &c.
