Experience of our corruption.
1 WE shall never be brought hungerly to seek after Christ, until we come by1 the last precept, to see and feel our natural corruption, where of we must not only have knowledge, but experience also, as S. Paul had, Rom. 7. Now whereas the Papists say, that this corruption is a sin in the unregenerate, but ••t in the regenerate; we say it is a sin in both. I say a bare knowledge hereof is not sufficient: for even the knowledge of our corruption is not without the corruption of a privy pride.
