Two Books Of Mr Sydrach Simpson, Late Master of Pembroke-Hall in Cambridg; And Preacher of the Gospel in London. Viz. I Of Faith, Or, That beleeving is receiving Christ; And receiving Christ is Believing. II. Of Covetousness. In the First Book is shewed (besides many other things) 1 That persons that are beleevers are Receivers. 2 That to Receive is the Principal use of Faith. 3 That nothing should hinder our Receiving. 1 Not our Sins. 2 Nor Gods delaies 3 Nor the smalness of our receipts. 4 Nor the great- ness of our Wants. 4 How Faith Receives. 5 That Faith Receives Christ. 1 In the understanding. 2. In the Will. 6 The temper of a man that hath faith. 7 The necessity of Faith. 8 Though Faith be smal yet it makes us the Sons of God. 9 The Nature of True Faith. 10 There are but few that Receive Christ. 11 Three sorts that come not to Christ. 1 Such as Receive him not as he is. 2 Such as delay their coming to him. 3 Such as give not that place to Christ in their hearts that is fitting for him. In the Treatise of Covetousness is shewed, 1 It is the Duty of all as they would obtaine eternal Life to be ware of covetousness. 2 The Reasons of the Doctrine, 1 Its a spiritual Sin. 2 It over spreads the whole man. 3 Its opposite to the Nature of Godliness and Reli- gion. 4 Its the Womb and seed of all Sin. 5 Its a base Sin. 3 The dangerousness of covetousness. 1 It is hardly avoided. 2 Its difficulty cured. 4 You shal have all things needful for this life if you wil look after Grace. 5 Your Life lies in Grace, not in Riches. 6 There is more to be feared than to be desired in Riches. 7 We should Mortifie our desires af- ter Riches
