Abbott, Lyman: Dictionary of Religious Knowledge ... Atonement no longer means to me that Christ has made a reparation to God for the wrong I have done and therefore God is reconciled to me.

The Soul's Conflict, Richard Sibbs, 1635 AD The very title of the book says it all! Sibbs viewed that insanity was caused by an inner conflict and cured only by faith in Christ! He recognizes the conflict between good and bad conduct and how the conscience can bring turmoil to the spirit and also physical illness to the body. He echos the battle between the spirit and the flesh in Romans 7:24. "Now the reason why imagination workes so upon the soule, is, because it stirres up the affections answerable to the good or ill which it apprehends, and our affections stir the humors of the body, so that oftentimes both our souls and bodies are troubled hereby." He shows how insanity affects those with bad conscience because ... He also says that hypochondria is beyond dispute because of how clear it was that people became insane over the mere worry of contracting and dying from the plague, which was seen as a judgement of God upon people's sins.
