Several have obferved to my hand, how far an Hypocrite may go ; but my defign in this Chapter, is to Pew bow far an Hypocrite cannot go. Many have difcovered at large, what an Hypocrite can do ; but my "'cope in this Chapter, is to Pew what an Hypocrite cannot do. Some have /hewed what an Hypocrite is, and .1 Pall now pea, what he is not. Some have dewed the feveral rounds in Jacob's Ladder that an Hypocrite may climb up to ; but my bulbuls and work in this Chapter, is to Pew you the feveral rounds in Jacob's Ladder.,..: ,bat no Hypocrite under heaven can climb up to. Elia, An Hypocrites inCide is never anfwerable to his out- fide ; an Hypocrites intide is one thing, and his outfide another thing ; an HypeCrite is outwardly clean, but inward- ly unclean ; - he is outwardly glorious, but inwardly inglori- ous. Hypocrites are like Apothecaries gaily pots, having without, the title of fome.excellent Prefervative, but within they are full of fome deadly poyfon ; they are like the Egyptiari Temples, that were beautifull without, but within there was nothing to be found but Serpents and Crocodiles, and other venemous creatures. Hypocrites trade more for a good name, than for- a good heart ; for a good report, than for a good confcience 9 they are like Fidlers, more careful in. tuning their Inftruments, than in watching their fpirits. Hypocrites are like white flyer, but they draw black lines they have a feeming fan&ified outride, but ftuff'd within with . 'Tis better that a hundred hypo- crites fhould pc- rifh,than that ore poor Chi ifkian fhould want his portion. Cotton on the Covenant page 78, I. Mat.z3 2%,tg)2, Luke u, 39. Er4fini
