This is shewed in all those places of Scripture, where wicked men are compared unto bruit beasts, either in generall, or in speciall, to Horses, Mules, Dogs, Swine, Foxes, Wolves, Beares, Lions, &c. Yea, they that are in greatest honour and esteeme in this world, are accounted no otherwise of by God, then as bruit beasts. The Monarchs, in _Daniel_, are alwayes compared unto wild beasts; and the Roman Emperours that persecuted the Church, are pointed out in the Apocalyps by the name of the Dragon. And the Pope is not only called a beast, but is described as a very great monster among the beasts, with seven heads, and ten hornes. _Vse_ 1. This may serve to condemn those, that please themselves in their sins. 2. To admonish us, so much the more to beware of sinne, lest at length with _Nebuchadnezzar_ we be cast downe from the greatest glory to the lowest condition of all. Doctrine 2. _The fountaine of all this sin and misery is the want of a right and spirituall judgement._ _Vse._ This may serve to admonish us, diligently therefore to betake our selves unto prayer, and other means, that are sanctified by God, for the enlightning of our mind, and keeping it sound. Doctrine 3. _A signe of such a condition, that is, of a man turning to a bruit beast, is, to follow the passions of corrupted nature, without reason._ _Vse._ This may serve to convict and condemne many, that seeme unto themselves to be excellent men. Doctrine 4. _Such men do corrupt also whatsoever naturall goodnesse they have in them._ This is gathered from this word, _corruption_, as it is explained, _Iude_ verse 10. _Vse._ This may serve to admonish us, therefore to hate and detest such courses. Doctrine 5. _Such sinners are entangled in their sins, and kept unto destruction, like as bruit beasts in their snares, wherewith they are taken._ So _2 Timothy 2.26._ _Lamentations 1.14._ _Vse._ This may serve to admonish us, to flye from all corruption, as we would from the snares of eternall death. * * * * * Verse 13. _And shall receive the reward of unrighteousnesse, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time: spots |they are| and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you:_ Verse 14. _Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin, beguiling unstable soules; an heart they have exercised with covetous practises, cursed children._ The Analysis.
