SERMON II. DOCT. I. Sin brings men into marvellous straits. 2. Gods servants never find so great favour as with God himself. ⟨image 119⟩3 God maketh his judgements, suitable to our sins. 4 When God sets in with his judgements they shall be far dispersed in a short time. 5 As God appointeth judgements to be inflicted on his people, so he himself will see execution done. 6 A good man will lay a greater burden on himself then on another.
SERMON II. DOCT. I. SInne brings men into maruellous straits. 2. Gods seruants neuer find so great fauour as with God himselfe. ⟨image 119⟩3 God maketh his iudgements, sutable to our sinnes. 4 When God sets in with his iudgements they shall be farre dispersed in a short time. 5 As God appointeth iudgements to be inflicted on his people, so he himselfe will see execution done. 6 A good man will lay a greater burden on himselfe then on another.
SERMON III. DOCT. I. Although humane helps and earthly friends do fail Gods people, yet they are not helpless, nor hopeless. 2 No outward thing comes nearer the hearts of Gods children, then the decay of good men. 3 Deceitful friends, are worse then open foes.
SERMON III. DOCT. I. ALthough humane helps and earthly friends do faile Gods people, yet they are not helpelesse, nor hopelesse. 2 No outward thing comes neerer the hearts of Gods children, then the decay of good men. 3 Deceitfull friends, are worse then openfoes.
SERMON IIII. DOCT. I. The more skilfully and artificially any contrives his ill purposes, the more fearful destruction shall fall upon him. 2 The more wicked men boast of their mischievous intents, the nearer mischief is unto them. 3 No man hath the royalty of his own tongue, nor the ordering of his own speech.
