Of infirmities.
No childe of God is free from infirmities,
errors, falls, and defects.
If we did live more by faith, our infirmi∣ties
would be lesse.
An infirmity is some weaknesse, which hin∣dreth
us, that we cannot doe the good we
would, but doe the evill we would not.
descriptionPage 42
An infirmity is an impediment that one
would faine remove but cannot.
A sin of infirmity is alwayes attended with
griefe and sorrow, if it be an infirmitie, those
in whom it is do desire to be informed of the
evill of it, and are willing to be reproved for
it, and would know how to leave it they plead
not for it, but complaine to God against it,
they are ashamed of it, and are grieved and
abased for it, and use all the meanes they can
against it. Interest.
Interest blinds mens eyes.
