Side 61 - Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me : for that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the Lord : they would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof. Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
Side 61 - Because I have called, and ye refused, I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded ; but ye have set at naught all my counsel, and would none of my reproof: I also will laugh at your calamity, I will mock when your fear cometh...

Side 143 - Scripture precepts, which require, not vicious actions, but actions which would have been vicious had it not been for such precepts; because they are sometimes weakly urged as immoral, and great weight is laid upon objections drawn from them. But to me there seems no difficulty at all in these precepts, but what arises -from their being offences : ie from their being liable to be perverted, as indeed they are, by wicked designing men, to serve the most horrid purposes ; and, perhaps, to mislead the...
