  If murther , furies , fates and death , beclad with bloody weede : Would all concurre with Nights blacke houres , to plot some dismall deede : Let them but congregate themselues , and silent stand awhile : To draw deathes samplar from the sense , and sequel of my stile .

  Users should bear in mind that in all likelihood such instances will never have been looked at by a TCP editor. WE have no greater encouragement in our Addresses to God , than the remembrance of past deliverances ; and we never Worship him more decently , than when we mix our acknowledgments for what is past , with our Prayers for what is to come .

summary:
  And amongst all the Tribes and Families in Israel , he pitch'd upon David the Son of Jesse , as the most fit , and best qualified Person for it : I have found David my servant ; concerning whom God gave this Testimony , That he was a man after his own heart , and that he had done that which was Right in his eyes ▪ A Good King is one ; who is no less the Image of the Love and Goodness , than of the Power and Majesty of God ; who no less represents the Affection and Tenderness of our Heavenly Father , than the Authority of the Universal Monarch ; whose Care it is , That Religion flourishes , and the True Worship of God be established ; That Justice be impartially administred ; That Vice be subdued , and Virtue encouraged ; That the One be sham'd by his Example , and punish'd by his Laws ; And that the Other Reigns and Triumphs under the Influence of both : One , who invades no Man's Property ; Whose Ox or Ass have I taken ? Whom have I defrauded ? Whom have I oppressed ? No Man can call in question David's Title to the Crown , unless he will dispute God's Right to dispose of Crowns as he pleases ; for David was immediately Chosen by God , and Anointed by his Prophet .

summary:
  I will doe a thing in Israel saith God , that whosoeuer shall heare , it shall make both his eares to tingle : but surely the very relation of this , had it taken effect , had beene enough not only to make a mans haire stand an end , & his eares to tingle , but his very heart to quake and tremble : and I am perswaded as no Historian euer wrote , or Poet faind , or Painter counterfeited , or Tragedian acted the like : so if all the damned Spirits of hell , and the damned Crew on the earth should ioyne in councell , and sett the vtmost of their wits aworke , they could neuer find out the like cursed divice againe .

  A sermon preached before the House of Peers in the Abbey of Westminster, on the 5th of November, 1689, being Gun-Powder Treason-Day, as likewise the day of His Majesties landing in England by the Right Reverend Father in God Gilbert Lord Bishop of Sarum.

summary:
  But though Balaam , as he said himself , had no power to speak any thing but the words which God should put in his mouth ; in which it seems he was so intirely Passive , that he was not at all Master of himself , when he fell into those Trances ; yet after those Essays he had vainly made to Curse them , he offer●d an advice to Balak , that had a more certain Effect than all the Curses that were desired from him could have had ; which was this , he knew well that God's favour to that People was Conditional , and so could last no longer than they should continue observing their Part of the Covenant ; therefore he Counselled Balak to endeavour first to Corrupt their Morals , and then to Debauch them in their Religion ; or as it is expressed by the Spirit of God , Rev. 2. 4. He taught Balak to cast a Stumbling-block before the People of Israel , to eat things Sacrific'd to Idols , and to commit Fornication ; lewd Women were sent in among them , to intice them first to Vice , and then to the Idolatry of Baal-peor ; the Rites of which were so Indecent , that as the Scripture wraps them up in general words ; so it is better to pass them over , than to explain them . THERE is somewhat in Ease and Prosperity , that does so weaken the Minds of Men , who are apt enough , even without that softning , to forget all the Good they receive , and both the Author of it , and the Instruments made use of by him in it , that it is necessary to call upon them often to reflect on what is past ; and that not only on these visible Blessings of God to them , that fall under the observation of all the World , but on the secret methods , as well as the hidden designs of Providence .

summary:
  My heart is fixed , Oh God , my heart is fixed : I will sing , and give praise . ON so great an Occasion as this , two such great Occasions as God has given us , for a perpetual Remembrance of this day ; Our Deliverance heretofore from the Gunpowder Treason , and now again from the imminent danger of Popery and Slavery : Such abundant , such overflowing matter of Thanksgiving to God , I confess I am Jealous of my self , may draw me forth into a trespass upon this great Audience ; there being so much to speak of , that one hardly knows what to leave out .

summary:
  God then will be our constant Friend and Benefactor , God then will stablish the wonderful Things He hath been graciously pleas'd to work for us ; God then will continue to deliver our Sovereign Lord the King , and us his People from Death , from all the impious Plots and Conspiracies of his and our Enemies , both at home and abroad ; God then will bless him and us with Temporal Peace and Happiness in this World , and with eternal Peace and Happiness in the World to come . But , blessed be God , the Tables of the Money Changers are now overturn'd , this great and dangerous Distemper which the Nation hath long labour'd under , is now healed , this base Art , as well as the terrible War , hath had its happy Period and Conclusion ; and if we would but put away from us all Bitterness and Wrath , Anger and Clamour , Malice and Envy , and live in Christian Love and Charity , if we would but endeavour to keep the Unity of the Spirit in the Bond of Peace , what could hinder us from being the happiest People upon the Face of the Earth ?

Or, A thanksgiving sermon, in commemoration of our great deliverance from the horrid Powder-Plot, 1605 And also of Gods merciful discovery of a bloody conspiracy against His Majesties Person, and the Protestant religion, 1678. Both intended by the papists. Preached at St. Peter's, Exon, Nov. 5. 1678. In prosecution whereof the Churches persecutions, foreign and domestick, by the hands of popish votaries, ever since the Reformation, are briefly recapitulated. Their charge of novelty on our church and religion is retorted. The absurdity of many of their doctrines and principles, and how destructive unto civil government, is detected. By John Reynolds, M.A.

summary:
  So that whatsoever enemies think effectually to prevail against the Israel or Church of God , must first make account to cancel all the Promises that are given for Israels security ; he must first overcome God himself , his Power , his Wisdom , and all his other Attributes concerned for his People ; he must subdue the Captain of our Salvation , storm Heaven , and put all the glorious Host of those Guardians of the Saints there to the rout , before he can perfectly and fully prevail against Gods Israel . I cannot really admit any diminutive account of your goodness to my self , otherwise than by considering you in that larger sphere which God hath placed you in , as a 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 , a common good to your Country ; of which for me to say any thing , would be altogether unnecessary , forasmuch as there are every day so many mouths open to acknowledg it .

But all this while this is far otherwise , it being very notorious that this Plot was discovered out of Confession to Garnet and Greenwell , &c. as will appear from the account which Garnet himself gives of it , ( as far as he was concerned . )

  November the 5. 1605. The quintessence of cruelty, or, master-peice of treachery, the Popish pouder-plot, invented by hellish-malice, prevented by heavenly-mercy. / Truly related, and from the Latine of the learned, religious, and reverend Dr. Herring, translated and very much dilated. By John Vicars.

summary:
  And thus , disguis'd , in this sly unknown hew , Securely they their rancorous poyson spew , And now with Fauks and Percy , Catesby met , An ancient Traitour soon on mischief set ; Whose heads , hearts , hands and all , plod and contrive Some horrid treason how to make to thrive ; Some strange , domestick-deluge to ordain , My swelling-tympany of hate is such , My discontent and grief of heart so much , To see our Holy Father so neglected ,

  The first step, towards heaven, or Anna the prophetesse sacred haunt, to the temple of God. Preached at Standish Church in the Countie of Lancaster. By VVilliam Leigh, Batchillor of Diuinity and paster there. With the second edition of great Brittaines deliuerance, newly corrected and enlarged by the author.

summary:
  Although this scripture say nothing of Anna whose story hitherto we haue followed , for the better manifesting of Christ in the flesh : yet it is necessary to be annexed further , to make plaine the history of Christ his incarnation by speciall growth in body , and strength in spirit , with al complements of wisedome , fauour , and grace both with God and man. Lastly , Christ his humanity is cleared in this , that he did growe in strength , and increased in wisedome and fauour both with God and man ; But his diuine and godly nature did not increase or waxed in this world , but filled all , & yet was fined from all ; it knewe all things , and was ignorant of nothing .

  A brand taken out of the fire. Or The Romish spider, with his webbe of treason. VVouen and broken together with the seuerall vses that the world and Church shall make thereof. By T. Cooper, preacher of Gods word.

summary:
  This is the man , that tooke not God for his strength , but put his strength in his malice , and in his mischieuous policies ; yea thine owne eyes shall see now , what before thou wouldest not beleeue , That the Lord careth for the righteous , but as for the wicked , them doth his righteous soule abhor : that so though thou continue thy malice against the saints , yet now thou shalt not hereafter haue this comfort , that thou didest it ignorantly , because thou hast seene that a God taketh their part , and therefore against this reuealed light , conuincing thine owne conscience , thou shalt hereafter appeare desperately to fight against God. Wouldest thou therefore vnderstand aright , what God hath done for thee in this great deliueraunce ?
