Small offers towards the service of the tabernacle in the wilderness four discourses accommodated unto the designs of practical godliness : preached partly at Boston, partly at Charleston / by Cotton Mather ; published by a gentleman lately restored from threatening sickness as a humble essay to serve the interest of religion, in gratitude unto God for his recovery.

Wherefore Try whether you are at so much pains for no Outward and Earthly thing, as you are for the mortification of every lust.
And Try whether Afflictions themselves are welcome to you, when you see you sins thereby embittered and subdued.
Examine Whether you have true FAITH.
Wherefore Try whether your Souls are extremely affected with the blessed Fullness & Glory which is in the Lord Jesus Christ. And Try whether your hearts most affectionately close with the Gospel-way of Salvation by Jesus Christ, so as cheerfully to venture the Lives of your souls upon it.
