Σελίδα 99 - Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou swarest by thine own self, and saidst unto them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever. And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people.
Σελίδα 48 - Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed: feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind ; neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being ensamples to the flock.

Σελίδα 120 - Popish clergy will laugh in their sleeves at this advice, and think there is folly enough yet left among the laity to support their authority ; and will hug themselves, and rejoice over the ignorance of the Universities, the stupidity of the drunken squires, the panic of the tender sex, and the never-to-be-shaken constancy of the multitude.
Σελίδα 136 - They reason against reason, use reason against the use of reason, and show, from very good reason, that reason is good for nothing. When they think it on their own side, then they apply all its aids to convince or confound those who dare to think without their concurrence : therefore, in their controversies about religion, they frequently appeal to reason ; but we must not accept the appeal, for if our reason be not their reason, it is no reason.
Σελίδα 96 - ... commonly called ecclesiastical jurisdiction: nevertheless the Bishop of Rome and his adherents, minding utterly as much as in him lay to abolish, obscure, and delete such power given by God to the princes of the earth, whereby they might gather and get to themselves the government and rule of the world, have in their councils and synods provincial made divers ordinances and constitutions that no lay or married man should...
Σελίδα 59 - ... to make it impenetrable. Scripture was not given to make work for interpreters; nor to teach men how to doubt, but how to live.
