1 Thessalonians3:3
Verſe 3. [non-Latin text not transcribed] Prov. That no man ſhould be moved] Gr. Flattered, as a dog ſlattereth, by moving his tail, q.d. The devil, by flattering you, with promiſe of more eaſe by a contrary courſe, will but do as a dirty dog, defile you with ſawning.
That we are appointed thereunto] Viz. By Gods decree, whereunto if damned ghoſts muſt ſubſcribe, Rom. 9.19, 20. how much more ſhould Gods elect, 1 Pet. 1 6? It is but a delicacy to dream of heaven to be had, without much hardſhip.
