For if he had not added "in the Lord," but 124 1, 34 | more." For Christ, desiring not only to give the possession 125 1, 34 | detain us on the way, when not even our Lord Himself, so 126 1, 35 | to use that dispensation, not with such love and delight 127 1, 36 | builds us up in love is not perniciously deceptive nor 128 1, 36 | interpretation upon them as does not tend to build up this twofold 129 1, 36 | and our neighbour, does not yet understand them as he 130 1, 36 | love, even though he does not happen upon the precise 131 1, 36 | that place, his error is not pernicious, and he is wholly 132 1, 36 | intended, goes astray, but not through any falsehood in 133 1, 36 | shown how much better it is not to quit the straight road, 134 1, 37 | author whom he is reading did not intend, he often falls in 135 1, 37 | For we walk by faith, not by sight." Now faith will 136 1, 37 | cannot love what he does not believe to exist. But if 137 1, 38 | that which as yet we see not, how much more shall we 138 1, 38 | that which as yet we have not reached, how much more shall 139 1, 38 | attain it, because it does not satisfy the soul, which 140 1, 39 | firm hold upon these, does not need the Scriptures except 141 1, 39 | what is perfect, they do not seek for what is only in 142 1, 40 | hope that our hope shall not be in vain. For these reasons 143 2, 1 | lay down this direction, not to attend to what they are 144 2, 1 | indicates fire. For it is not from any intention of making 145 2, 1 | of the subject, I could not altogether pass it over. 146 2, 2 | another question, and does not pertain to the matter in 147 2, 2 | the scope of this work as not necessary to my present 148 2, 3 | the lyre frequently give not only a sweet but a significant 149 2, 3 | made whole, the act was not wanting in significance. 150 2, 4 | made visible to the eye, not of course as sounds, but 151 2, 4 | the punishment of having not their minds only, but their 152 2, 6 | thickest darkness.

For it was not because they had meaning 268 2, 24 | another among the Latins, not by nature, but by agreement 269 2, 24 | and as, further, men did not agree upon them as signs 270 2, 24 | observations, take pains not to see the flight or hear 271 2, 25 | human institutions which are not superstitious, there are 272 2, 25 | human institutions which are not superstitious, that is, 273 2, 25 | superstitious, that is, such as are not set up in association with 274 2, 25 | of force by nature, and not by the arrangement and agreement 275 2, 25 | the public crier would not in former times have announced 276 2, 25 | many ways, such signs are not always of the same significance 277 2, 25 | intercourse either could not be carried on at all, or 278 2, 25 | Now these, if they were not devices of men, would not 279 2, 25 | not devices of men, would not be different in different 280 2, 25 | different nations, and could not be changed among particular 281 2, 25 | of life, the Christian is not by any means to neglect, 282 2, 26 | are, so far as they are not matters of luxury and superfluity, 283 2, 26 | occupy our minds so far as not to stand in the way of more 284 2, 27 | departments of knowledge, not of mere human invention, 285 2, 27 | to the next point, we are not to reckon among human institutions 286 2, 27 | have handed down to us, not as arrangements of their 287 2, 28 | evident, however, that it was not without a purpose it was 288 2, 28 | coming of our Lord! did not the illustrious bishop, 289 2, 28 | are so justly praised?
