Early English Printed Sermons


A decad of caveats to the people of England of general use in all times, but most seasonable in these, as having a tendency to the satisfying such as are not content with the present government as it is by law establish'd, an aptitude to the setling the minds of such as are but seekers and erraticks in religion an aim at the uniting of our Protestant-dissenters in church and state : whereby the worst of all conspiracies lately rais'd against both, may be the greatest blessing, which could have happen'd to either of them : to which is added an appendix in order to the conviction of those three enemies to the deity, the atheist, the infidel and the setter up of science to the prejudice of religion / by Thomas Pierce ...

In-Text § 10. Now the way to walk circumspectly not as fools, but as wise, and to free our selves from That Fallacy, which is so generally swallow'd by other men, is first to consider what Conscience is, (a thing the most talk'd of, but the least commonly understood, of any principle or faculty to be imagin'd,) and after That to be carefull how we walk by that Rule. For whilst the Rule itself is false, the Circumspection must needs be foolish, and can onely serve to make us the more disorderly Walkers. Conscience indeed is the Rule of Action; But to be sturdily perswaded a thing is lawfull or unlawfull, is not at any time the Rule, and not at all times the work of Conscience. § 10.
