1. What call you that kind of sinning, When we our selves 1will venture upon the same sins which we condemn in others? Rom. 2. 1. Thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest, for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thy self, for thou that judgest dost the same things.
- 1When men venture upon the same sins they condemn in others.
2. What kind of sinning call you that, When the heart will 1maintain its way against the Revelations of wrath, (i) though God proclaims vengeance and death against such a sinning way; yet the man will adventure on in the commission: I say, will adventure: for through weakness a man may be trodden down; but it is a stoutness when he will break through the Army: when a person will through the pikes, he will not give up his worldly and fleshly lusts, though the heavens be darkened round about his soul with threatenings; is not this presumptuous sinning?
