CHAP. X.-The testimony of the Blood is considered, p. 187; in ten parti-

culars, p. 188; the first, p. 189; the second, p. 190; the third, p. 193; the

fourth, p. 194; the fifth, p. 196; the sixth, p. 197; the seventh, p. 199; the

racles he wrought, p. 212; which are considered in general, p. 213; and then in

sion to heaven, p. 224; explained in eight particulars, p. 229. An explication

doctrine more fully, p. 240; declaring, first, how our Lord will appear in person

at the last day, p. 241; secondly, that in the mean time souls do not sleep, p. 242;

proved by several testimonies of St. Paul and St. John, p. 247; which was always

the sense of the Church, p. 248. The certainty of the Apostles' testimony, p. 251;

proved by their life and doctrine, p. 254; by their blood, p.256; and by the power

of the Spirit which accompanied them, p. 258; by which they cured some, and

delivered others to Satan, p. 261. A meditation out of St. Chrysostom, p. 265.

CHAP. XIII.-The use we are to make of this record. First, in admiring

the great love of God, p. 268; which is illustrated (secondly) by what God hath

done for us, more than for any in former times, p. 272. How uncertain the

philosophers were in their reasonings about this matter, p. 274. How little of it

was revealed to the Jews, p. 276; who had no express promises of eternal life,

p. 281; and therefore saw it but obscurely, p. 282; and had no such witnesses of

what they knew, p. 285; which ought (thirdly) to excite in our hearts such love to

God as moves us universally to obey him, p. 287. No motive comparable to

this, p. 288 whose strength appears in six properties it hath, p. 289. which

(fourthly) makes it more strange that it doth so little move men, p. 295. Want

the way, p. 317; thirdly, about the unreasonableness of being desirous to stay

always here, p. 321; fourthly, about their distance from it, who never have their

thoughts in heaven, p. 322; fifthly, about the danger of resisting so mighty a

motive to well-doing, p. 324; sixthly, about men's resolutions, all these things

considered, p. 327. The last use concerns the great joy the righteous should have

in the thoughts of what they hope for, p. 331; which is a strong support under the

greatest afflictions, p. 333; demonstrated in three observations, pp. 333-336;

where the resolution of good men before Christ came is represented, p. 340.
