  The poor man's help being, I. An abridgement of Bishop Pearson on the Creed; shewing what he is to believe. II. A short exposition of the Lord's Prayer, directing him what to beg of God. III. The Ten Commandments explain'd; teaching him his duty both to God and man. With some additional helps for his private devotion.

summary:
  I believe , that whereas every Sin is a Transgression of the Law of God , upon every Transgression there remains a Guilt upon the Transgressor , and that Guilt brings an eternal Punishment ; so that all men being concluded under Sin , they were all obliged to suffer the punishment of eternal Death ; yet it pleased God to give his Son , & his Son to give himself to be a surety for this Debt , and to release us from these bonds : And because , without shedding of blood , there is no Remission , he gave his Life a Sacrifice for sin ; he laid it down as a Ransom , even his precious Blood , as a Price by way of Compensation , and Satisfaction to the Will and Justice of God ; by which Propitiation , God , who was by our sins offended , became reconciled , and being so , took off our Obligation to eternal punishment , which is the Reward of our sins ; and appointed in the Church of Christ , the Sacrament of Baptism for the first Remission , and Repentance for the constant Forgiveness of all following Trespasses : And thus I believe the Forgiveness of Sins . Our Enemies , O Lord , are mighty , and vigilant , and the best of us unable of himself to withstand the least of their Assaults : Leave us not , O God of our strength , to be overcome by their Wiles , or Power ; and suffer us not to be tempted above what thy Grace does enable us to bear : And though in those Temptations that thou permittest us to be led into , thy favour may seem to be shadowed from us for a time ; yet teach us so much spiritual Wisdom , as not to despair of Deliverance , but to be satisfied , that thou hast appointed them their Limits , which they are not able to go beyond .

  An endeavovr of making the principles of Christian religion, namely the Creed, the Ten Commandements, the Lords prayer, and the Sacraments, plaine and easie tending to the more speedy instruction of the meanest capacities, and weakest memories, and for the making triall also of their understandings, who though they have attained some measure of saving knowledge, yet through the weaknesse of their abilities cannot expresse even that which they doe conceive.

summary:
  How fit it is to perform this , though thy own expe●●ce will best inform thee , if thou be pleased to make triall of it toward any thou hast care of , yet thou maist partly conceive , if thou wilt take along with thee the reason of the composition of it in this forme , and the drift aimed at by the Author , which will also direct thee to make right use of it . Now the God of all wisdome & grace , who hath graciously promised , that under the kingdom of Christ the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the ●●ord , ●s the waters cover the sea , and particularly that all our children shall be taught of him : von ●safe for Iesus Christs sake , and through him our great Prophet his blessing , as upon all other means used by any , so upon these weak indeavours of his 〈◊〉 thiest servant , that by them , thou ( whoever thou art ) that thinkest good to attempt the making use of them , maist for thyselfe and thine , si●de some help toward the more easie overcoming the conceited inseparable difficulty of making those that are not book learn'd ( as the phrase is ) attain to any measure of understanding in matters of Religion , so as both thou and they may be both the more willing and able to teach and to learn , untill we all com● to the blessed persection promised , when there shall be no more need of teaching every man hi , neighbour , and every man his brother , saying , Know the Lord , because all shall know him from the least to the greatest : comming all in the unity of 〈◊〉 , and of the knowledge of the Son of God , unto a perfect man , unto the measure of the stature of the fulnesse of Christ .

  A brief exposition of the Lord's prayer and the Decalogue to which is added the doctrine of the sacraments / by Isaac Barrow ...

summary:
  The Scripture frequently mentioneth a place of his special residence ( seated in regions of inaccessible light , above the reach not onely of our sense , but of our fancy and conception ) where his royal Court , his presence Chamber , his imperial Throne are ; where he is more immediately attended upon by the glorious Angels , and blessed Saints ; which place is called Heaven , the highest heavens ; the 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 , the highest places ; by his presence wherein God is described here , as for distinction from all other parents here on earth , so to encrease reverence in us toward him ( while we reflect upon his supereminent glory and majesty ) and to raise our hearts from these inferiour things unto desire , and hope , and love of heavenly things ; withdrawing ( saith S. Chrysostome ) him that prays from earth , and fastning him to the places on high , and to the mansions above . 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 , 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 If God will have it so , so let be : if we could observe those rules and precepts , which even the Philosophers so much inculcate ; to commit all our affairs to God , to love and embrace ( hugg ) all events ; to follow , and to accompany God ; to yield , deliver , and resign our selves up to him .
