A word to sinners, and a word to saints The former tending to the awakening the consciences of secure sinners, unto a lively sense and apprehension of the dreadful condition they are in, so long as they live in their natural and unregenerate estate. The latter tending to the directing and persuading of the godly and regenerate unto several singular duties. As also a word to householders stirring them up to the good old way of serving God in and with their families, from Joshua's resolution, Josh. 24. 15. As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. Set forth especially for the use and benefit of the inhabitants of St. Sepulchres Parish, London by Tho. Gouge, late pastor thereof.A word to sinners, and a word to saints The former tending to the awakening the consciences of secure sinners, unto a lively sense and apprehension of the dreadfull condition they are in, so long as they live in their natural and unregenerate estate.

Q. What things did God so make?
A. All things.
This the Apostle expressly avouchet, Col. 1.16. By him were all things Created that are in Heaven, and that are in Earth, Visible and Invisible. If the excellency of many Creatures, the greatness of others, the multitude of all together, be duly considered, it must needs be granted, that herein the Lord showeth himself to be a God indeed: the only true God. None else can do the like.
