  A letter of several French ministers fled into Germany upon the account of the persecution in France to such of their brethren in England as approved the Kings declaration touching liberty of conscience : translated from the original in French.

summary:
  And Popery has been banished out of England by Laws made by King and Parliament , and which cannot be repealed but by the Authority of King and Parliament together ; so that therefore there is just cause to complain , that the King should go about to overthrow them himself alone by his Declaration . And the King of England , as well as his Subjects , ought to observe the Laws which have been established by King and Parliament together .

  An exhortation to mutual charity and union among Protestants in sermon preach'd before the King and Queen at Hampton-Court, May 21. 1689 / by William Wake ... publish'd by His Majesties special command.

summary:
  Such was their Duty to one another then ; and we ought certainly no less to esteem the same to be our Duty towards one another now : And First , As to the business of Charity ; God forbid that any differences in Religion whatsoever , much less such little ones as those we are now speaking of , should ever make us deny that to our fellow Christians . Wherefore receive ye one another , as Christ also received us , to the glory of God.

  A sermon preach'd before the King and Queen at White-Hall, May the 4th. M.DC.XC. by William Wake ...

summary:
  How much more might we hope to see Piety and Religion revive among us , would the Princes and Nobles of our Israel seriously resolve to set the Example : And make Vertue as necessary to a good Esteem , and Interest , and Reputation with Men , as it is to gain the Love of God , and the Blessings and Glories of Eternity ? And thus have I consider'd very briefly a few of those Advantages which oblige Persons of Great Authority , and Fortune and Quality in the World , to a more strict and careful discharge of their Duty than other men . We esteem'd them neglected of God , the scorn of Men , and out-cast of the people .

summary:
  I will not dispute of what use some of these External Performances may be to assist our Repentance , and render our Sorrow for Sin the more solemn , and so in some Cases , as I have before observed , the more pleasing to God. Whatever be the Import of these Phrases ; whether by the mighty and terrible Host here spoken of , we are only to understand that swarm of a Locusts , and other Insects , that we are b before told were utterly to devour all the Fruits of the Land : Or whether under the Character of these , we shall c with most Interpreters , comprehend the numerous and mighty Armies of the Chaldaeans and Babylonians , which at divers times brought such Desolations , as we read of , upon the Jews : This is plain , that we have here the denunciation of some Judgment worthy of God , and great as the sins and incorrigibleness that occasion'd it .

  A sermon preached upon the XXXth of January S.V. 1684/5, at Paris in the chappel of the Right Honourable the Lord Vicount Preston, His Majestie's envoy extraordinary in the court of France

summary:
  How did our Cities become Solitary , that were full of people ? Our Country , Once great among the Nations , How did she become Tributary , even to her own Vassals ? Our King , the Anointed of the Lord , fell by their hand ; Our Princes were led into Captivity ; Our Churches , the Places of our Assemblies , were profaned ; The solemn Feasts and days , were forgotten in our Zion , and God in the Indignation of his anger , despised both the King and the Priest. Let us no more give our Enemies this advantage against us , to force the Almighty to withdraw his presence from amongst us , and leave us again to engage them upon equal Terms : But let our lives and our prayers both join in the Request , to save and to defend us , Spare thy People , O Lord , and give not thine Heritage to reproach ; that the Heathen should rule over them : wherefore should they say among the People , Where is there God ?

  A sermon preached in the parish church of St. James, Westminster, April xvith, 1696 being the day of the publick thanksgiving for the preservation of His Majesty's person from the late horrid and barbarous conspiracy and for delivering this kingdom from the danger and miseries of a French invasion / by William Wake.

summary:
  For not to say any thing of those many Deliverances we have heretofore assembled to bless God for : How great was the Mercy that Saved us from our present danger ? How evident was the hand of God , in every Circumstance of it ? That Men , neither the most Religious , nor Compassionate of Any in the World ; Enemies to our Religion , and ( if it were possible ) somewhat worse than Enemies to our present Government ; should yet be so strook with the Regret of an Enterprize , which alone could give them any just Hopes of succeeding in their designs against us , as to become Themselves the Discoverers of their Own Wicked Undertakings ; is certainly very Strange : And what can hardly be accounted for , without Acknowledging some Extraordinary Impulse of Conscience in it . will I Praise Him. THO' it be difficult to say what the particular Occasion was which moved the Royal Psalmist to Compose this Psalm ; yet there is more than enough , in the very Subject of it , to shew , how suitable it is to that Great Deliverance which we are now Assembled to Offer up our Thanksgivings unto God for .

  A sermon preached before the Queen at White-Hall, April 2, 1690 being the fifth Wednesday in Lent / by William Wake.

summary:
  'T is true indeed so great was the care of God heretofore to restrain the Jews from an Idolatrous Worship , that he threatned for this Sin to visit the Iniquities of the Fathers upon the Children unto the third and fourth Generation ; i. e. upon those who could not possibly have been in any manner accessary to their Impieties . And that especially by these two ways : * By his wicked Doctrine ; and , * By the Scandal and Influence of a bad Example : And by either of which , if another be led into Sin , we find the Person who conduced but even thus far towards it , nevertheless charged by God as Partaker of it .

  Of our obligation to put our trust in God, rather than in men, and of the advantages of it in a sermon preached before the honourable society of Grayes-inn, upon the occasion of the death of our late Royal Sovereign Queen Mary / by William Wake ...

summary:
  And therefore , whatsoever Power he has , is confined within those Bounds which the Divine Wisdom has thought fit to set to it : Nor can he Go , the least Tittle , beyond what God has permitted him to Do. And when such is the Advantage of God , in this Respect , above Any of his Creatures ; much more above Man , the Lowest of all the Rational Kind in Power and Dignity : Well may the Psalmist pronounce him Blessed , whose Wisdom and Piety have taught him to fix his Trust there , where Nothing can hinder it from being Beneficial to Him , but his own Neglecting to seek for Help as he ought to Do.

FOR the last you are infallibly to believe what God has promised ; especially that he will give pardon of sin , and everlasting salvation to all humble and repenting sinners ; and for what refers to your own particular , you are confidently to rely upon his word , that if you perform your part , Christ will never fail in his ; and that therefore you ought to fulfill those duties , which he commands , and to which alone this promise of Reward is given . REPENTANCE is usually defined to be a change of mind , an absolute entire conversion of our Souls from sin to God.

  A sermon preach'd before the lord-mayor and Court of Alderman at S. Sepulchres-Church on Wednesday in Easter-week, A.D. MDCXC by William Wake ...

summary:
  But otherwise to tarry to the last hour , and never think of doing Good to others with the Portion which God has Given us , till we are no longer in a condition to enjoy it our selves ; this must certainly be very Sinful and Scandalous : And tho I will not say that such a Legacy , rather than Charity , at the last , shall utterly lose its Reward ; Yet as it wants much of that Praise which the Early giver meets with among Men , so I think it may be justly doubted whether it shall find so Favourable an Acceptance in the sight of God. In short , * If to have given the plainest and most express Commands for the exercise of such a Charity , and to have repeated those Commands more frequently , and to have enforced them more earnestly , than almost any other Precepts in the Gospel besides a : * b If to have set before us the Practice of it , as that whereby above all things we may the most nearly imitate the Perfection of God himself ; † and render him our debtor from whom we have received all , whatsoever we enjoy : * If to have made our Kindness and Charity to our Neighbour , the very mark whereby to try our Love and Duty to God ; and to have declared that no service we can do the One , shall be accepted , whilst we continue to neglect the Other .

  A brief discourse of the real presence of the body and blood of Christ in the celebration of the Holy Eucharist wherein the witty artifices of the Bishop of Meaux and of Monsieur Maimbourg are obviated, whereby they would draw in the Protestants to imbrace the doctrine of transubstantiation.

summary:
  But if Christ meant that Body or Flesh of his and not some other that is rightly also called his Flesh or Body , it would follow that that Souldier by doing that savage and inhumane act , would have obtained Everlasting Life . And he thus dwelling in us , he enlivens us , we becoming one with Christ in a manner as the Soul and Body makes one , as it followeth in the next verse , As the living father has sent me , and I live by the father , so he that eateth me shall live by me , and so we become one with Christ and Christ with us , we living by Christ as he by his Father ; that is to say , as Christ ▪ lives by his Father , so we live by the Spirit of Christ dwelling in us , Rom. 8. 11. which Spirit or Life of Christ always implies the Divine Body .

summary:
  Some things which , at first Sight , may seem an Abatement of the Authority of the Church , is rather such a way of Regulating the Exercise of its Power , as , under Religious Princes , is for the Churches Advantage . But I shall chuse rather to express the process of this Convocation , in the Words of an Author , who may perhaps be less liable to Exception ; and whose account of it is this : That the Clergy being met in their Convocation , according to the Tenour and Effect of his Majesties Writ , his Majesty was pleased , by Vertue of his Prerogative Royal , and Supreme Authority in Causes Ecclesiastical , to give and grant unto Them , by his Letters Patents , dated April 12. and June 25. full , free , and lawful Liberty , Licence , Power and Authority , to Convene , Treat , Debate , Consider , Consult and Agree upon such Canons , Orders , Ordinances , and Constitutions , as they should think necessary , fit , and convenient , for the Honour and Service of Alimighty God , the good and quiet of the Church , and the better Government thereof from time to time &c. — Which being Agreed on by the Clergy , and by them presented to the King , humbly requiring him to give his Royal Assent unto them , according to the Statute made in the 25 of King Henry VIII .
