Direct. 17. Do not think the better of sin because you see it in fashion: Think not the better of impiety because most walk in this crooked way. The ⟨p. 16⟩multitude is a foolish argument; I say it again, the multitude doth not argue the goodness of a thing. The Devils name is Legion, which signifies multitude. Hells road is at this day full of Travellers: Esteem not better of sin because most go this way. The multitude is erroneous saith Jerome: The pleading of the multitude will not hold at Gods Bar, when God shall ask you, Why did you profane my Sabbaths? why were you drunk? why did you break your oaths? Lord, other men did so? God will say, seeing you have sinned with the multitude, you shall go to Hell with the multitude. I beseech you be tender of your souls, and walk Antipodes with the times; if you be living fish swim against the stream, Ephes. 5. 11. Have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness.
