THE Contents of the Fourth Book, on Matth. 11. 30. VIZ. The only Easie Way to Heaven.

• CHAP. 133. The words in the 30. verse Opened and Explained Page 633
• Chap. 134. Doct. The way of the Gospel that brings to Heaven, is an easie way. This confirmed and explained in six particulars. 637
• Chap. 135. Six Evidences of the former Doctrine in the last Chapter. 1. Because the word that injoyns these waies is Sweet. 2. A Gracious Soul counts his Duties his priviledges. 3▪ He would rather come under any other Burden, than cast off the Yoke of Christ. 4 Because Christ whose Yoke it is, is Gen∣tle. 5 Never any that truly put their neck under this Yoke, would willingly take it out again. 6 The Experience of all the Saints of God prove the Point 641
• Chap. 136. The Second Particular mentioned, Is opened in two differences between a Carnal heart, and a Gracious Soul, in the waies of God. 1 The Hypocrite finds ease in the waies of God and Sin both. 2 The Hypocrite hath some ease, because he mistakes the Yoke of Christ, contenting himself with

• the outward forme of Godliness, but the beleevers ease comes from the power of it. 649
• Chap. 137. Containeth a third and fourth Difference between the ease of an Hypocrite, and true Beleever in the waies of God. For, 1. They are easie even to the Corruptions of an Hypocrite. 2. He takes up the waies of God partially 658
• Chap. 138. Containeth Six differences more of the former Point. 5 A Carnal heart can take up and lay down duties when he will. 6 He hath ease in the remissness of his Spirit. 7 His ease is al alike. 8 The more ease he hath, the more sluggish he is. 9 He hath but one principle in the heart that acteth him both in the waies of God, and the waies of the world. 10 His ease comes from the performance of duties in his own Strength 663
• Chap. 139. Divers Objections answered. The easi∣ness of the waies of Christ; which is the third par∣ticular mentioned in Chap. 139. 672
• Chap. 140 Sheweth the Reasons of the Discipline and Government of Christ, and Objections against the same are answered 687
• Chap. 141. Of the easiness of the Yoke of Afflictions for the Name of Christ 698
• Chap. 142▪ What the things are that makes the waies of Christ easie (which is the fourth point in Chap. 139.) opened in five particulars. 1 They are such as a gracious Soul wil impose upon himself. 2 He comes freely off to them. 3 The waies of Christ are even, and not contrary one to another. 4 They bring Strength with them. 5 In them all there is good Success. 6 In them a gracious heart is alwaies receiving his wages. 7 He hath all the passages of Gods providence to help him. 8 They bring ease to the Conscience. 9 They free the Soul from cares.

• 10 They make all other things easie 703
• Chap. 143. The Yoke of Christ easier than the Yoke of the Law: For, 1. The Ceremoniall Law required abstinence from the comforts of the Creature. 2 Its Service was chargeable. 3 The Ceremonies were beggarly Rudiments 719
• Chap. 144. The Yoke of Christ easier than the Yoke of Sin, and Antichrist 726
• Chap. 145 Eight Consequences from the former Do∣ctrin, 1. The world is mistaken about the service of Christ. 2 A great sin to reject Christ. 3 Bless God for this easie Yoke. 4. Bring not an evil report upon the waies of Christ. 5. Christ wil expect much Ser∣vice, it being so easie. 6. Make not the Yoke of Christ hard. 7 We should give up our Selves to Christ. 8. It is an accursed thing to be an Apostat 737
• Chap. 146. The means to make the waies of Christ ea∣sie to our selves. 1 Our obedience must be Evangeli∣cal. 2 Keep the heart in a readiness to every duty. 3 Get the heart in love to the duty. 4 Lose not your en∣couragements. 5 Continue not in the guilt of any sin. 6 Order the duties of your Condition. 7 Leave the Success wholly to God. 8 Bind not your self to what Christ doth not. 9 Lay hold upon al opportunities. 10 Preserve all experiences. 11 Beware of distur∣bing passions. 12 Entertain communion with the Saints. 13 Exercise much faith. 14 Get strength of Grace 750
