A64889	Coleman-street conclave visited, and, that grand imposter, the schismaticks cheater in chief (who hath long, slily lurked therein) truly and duly discovered containing a most palpable and plain display of Mr. John Goodwin's self-conviction (under his own hand-writing) and of the notorious heresies, errours, malice, pride, and hypocrisie of his most huge garagantua, in falsly pretended piety, to the lamentable misleading of his too-too credulous soul-murthered proselytes of Coleman-street & elsewhere : collected, principally, out of his own big-bragadochio and wavelike-swelling and swaggering writings, full-fraught with six-footed terms, and flashie rhetoricall phrases, far more than solid and sacred truths, and may fitly serve (if it be the Lords will) like Belshazzars hand-writing, on the wall of his conscience, to strike terrour and shame into his own soul, and shamelesse face, and to un-deceive his most miserably cheated and inchanted, or bewitched followers / by John Vicars.	Vicars, John, 1579 or 80-1652.	1648 (1648)	Wing V297; ESTC R1674	42,759	52

purpose I mean Mr. John Goodwin that couzening Cajaphas and monstrous Metropolitan of Coleman-street Conclave a most sly and subtill Deceiver and desperate Murtherer of mens and womens precious souls by his intolerable Pride Self seeking Singularity and plausible Popularity but all of them nauseously stincking most strongly in the intrals and reality of them of the filthy snufs of rotten Pelagianisme Socinianisme Arminianisme and almost of all sorts of Sects and Schismes and most dangerous and damnable Opinions But yet all of them so confidently and craftily gilded-over with specious shews and deep pretences of piety and protestations of singlenesse of heart and sincerity and with such studyed terms and rhetoricall phrases of artificiall Sophistry wherein he is one of Satans most exquisitely documented Disciples and interlaced or interlarded with such bumbasted six-footed inchanting terms and deep dissembled flourishes vows and attestations of God Angels and men of nothing but simplicity of spirit and Saint-like Sanctimonie in this good man thus to puzle mens understandings and to dazle their eyes and delude the judgements even oftentimes of deeply discerning spirits who on a sodain peruse his works or writings untill the file of second thoughts and more serious consideration by the helpe of Gods grace comes upon them and then they most palpably appear in their connative colours and smell most unsavourily of abominable Collusions dangerous and damnable Heresies Schismes and Blasphemies And thus for these many years he hath most boldly gone on to deceive the world but especially his own miserable soule and cauterized conscience and is now become like the Smiths anvill or a Nethermilstone more and more obdurate and inpenetrably hardned by often hammering and hatching his notorious Errours and Blasphemies even to this very day in flatly denying Scripture fundamentals as Gods eternall decree of predestination to reprobation yea the translated Scriptures and Originals too to be the ground of our faith In justifying mans free will to supernaturall good Universall redemption of all both good and bad Mans naturall reason to be the ground of faith And his naturall abilities to improve gifts of nature and morall endowments so as to merit salvation And such like most detestable and damnable Pelagean Arminian Papisticall and Socinian Heresies And withall he hath gotten one most notorious cheating Engine to help himself as he hopes at a dead lift and to harden himself in these his wickednesses and deceivable practises the smoothlyer to cheat his pittifully puzled Proselytes beside the lying and flattering Encomtums and Elogies most unjustly bedawbing him over even by these his own bewitched Sycophanticall Followers who magnifie and elevate to the clouds his falsly pretended Piety and precious Parts gifts and graces forsooth Namely That when he is put clostly to it by any of his solid sound and learned Opposites and Antagonists about these or any other his damnable Opinions He most dissemblingly and deceitfully professes and protests to his Proselytes and those that will beleive him That Goodman t is his great Unhappinesse to be still mistaken both in his preaching and writings And this base and beggarly put-off is also by him most bouldly backt with that Scripture Every day they wrest my words and all their thoughts are against me for evill And this hee hath done in print in the front of his Pamphlets Calumny arreigned and cast Hagio-Mastix and others whereas the Lord of heaven knows and all that read impartially can truly testifie He does but cry whore first as the Proverb is he himselfe being the most egregious Lyer and Slanderer as anon in its more proper place you shall see most truly and punctually proved under his own hand And thus most audaciously and with a brazen face and as the Prophet sayes even with a Whores forehead he denyes and disclaims his own bastardly brats his wicked holding or maintaining of any such dogmaticall and dangerous tenets or ever having preach'd or written any such impious or damnable heresies and destructive opinions as are above or besides or contrary to Gods written Word yea though we have his own words under his own hand writing or printed Pamphlets most evidently and undenyably testifying the truth of what wee object against him as if because he is wilfully blinde himselfe he could as easily or forcibly blinde our eyes and stop our mouthes and befool our judgements that we should neither be able to see or say or believe the visible and undenyable evidences we heare and see read and have in his words and writings against him which is such intolerable and unparallel'd impudencie as hath hardly been heard or found in any Hereticks or Schismaticks before and besides him But now to come to the matter which I mainly intend in this little Treatise of the discovery of his most false and fallacious double-dealing with God and the world and his bold and blasphemous opinions and errours frequently and most confidently brewed and broached by this Arts-Master or Arch-Master of Impudencie and impiety who yet most lyingly protests and professes the contrary and that he Good man does all in the integrity and sincerity of his soul I having lately read as oftentimes I heretofore have done many of Mr. John Goodwins other Works a pretended rare Master-piece of his now lately printed and published entituled The Authority of Divine Scriptures Asserted gaudily garnished and pranked up with a flourishing Frontespiece and big-promising Title and his Picture forsooth bravely set out by the side of it like a Vimners brave Bush at the Tavern door to grace or rather disgrace the porch of that stately structure and underneath it some of Mr. Daniel Taylers most abusive and flattering poetry or Encomiastick lying lines besmearing it And as my custome is in reading any mens labours I first reading his Epistles and after them the ensuing Subject or Matter of his book whereas I most seriously expected to have met with an ingenuous and just recantation of his wicked and blasphemous dealings with the Translated-Scriptures yea and the Originalls too in his Hagio-Mastix I contrary wise encountred a second scelerous encounter of his against the said sacred Scriptures and a strong and strenuously strugling endeavour in him most superciliously and proudly to maintain yea and magnifie what he had formerly said and held in his foresaid hellish Hagio-Mastix pretending in this second assault only the use of his forementioned old Engine viz how He good man was miserably mistaken in his meaning and managing of that businesse and now in this last book most persidiously and proudly pretending an Asserting of the Authority of the translated Scriptures whereas he falls a fresh into a swaggering humour of saucily tampering with and temerariously contaminating of the Sacred Scriptures with his pernicious and polluted pen even as desperately and deceiveably as he did before and as he had formerly done in a deluding half sheet of paper which he called A Candle to the

Sun Which he printed and published immediately after the just hve and cry of Gods people against his felonious Hagio-Mastix as if he would have made us beleive that he would have stopt that sacrilegious Theif for us which indeed was most worthy to have been apprehended and severely punisht by the hangman But he did but therewith also more and more abuse us by his thus jugling with us But because I know that Dolosus versatur in generalibus and that therefore t is not so fair play to deal too long in generalls I will now therefore briefly and truely come to particulars and first will shew the Reader the double-dealing of this notorious white-Deuills most deceiptfull heart and tongue and pen for they all go together as our Saviour himselfe sayes Out of the abundance of the heart the tongue speakes out of what I have seriously observed even to admiration and amazement in his Dedicatory Epistle of that foresaid book to the Parliament wherein first I shall take notice though it comes not first in order or place of his other sawning expressions therein yet because it so peculiarly concernes the Parliament and his vapouring love thereof and respect thereunto of his most false and fallacious jugling and dissembling with Both those Houses professing such obedience to their authority and reverend assent and respect to their waighty employments whereof and unto whom he useth these words I am not conscious to myself of any refusall of subjection to any just law or imposition of men And again I reverence the great concernments of the Kingdome and I hope Religion and Reformation are two of the greatest of them all in your hands wherein from the beginning I have served you with all faithfulnesse and simplicity of heart hithereto Now then whither Mr. Goodwin be a fair-dealing honestman or does not her play the notorious jugling Jesuite with Equivocations and mentall reservation's with the Parliamet and in all these expressions shew himself a notorious lyer and abhominable dissembler let any discreet and impartiall man judge For what greater rebellion and disobedience or refusall of subjection to the Parliaments most just ordinances or impositions can there be than that now when as they are and long have been about the work of Reformation in matters of Religion and Church-Government wherein they have fixedly resolved to setle the Presbyterian-way for Mr. J.G. with others his Schismaticall Companions and brothers in iniquity of his own giddy head and head strong humour not only without but contrary unto Parliamentary-authority or any other lawfull power given unto him to set up a Church-Way of his own and most rebelliously and Schismatically with unbending boldnesse and obstinacie to this very day to persist in it Again How hath this obedient Gentleman scoffed and jeered at yea reviled and abused the Ordinances of Parliament especially that about the preventing and restraining of the spreading of Heresies Errours and blasphemous opinions in an anonimous Pamphlet conteining 38 Queries against that Ordinance which was printed by one Symmons for Overton two of Master Goodwins prime and most pernicious Pandours to all his printed and published spurious Brats Anno 1646 and Master J. G. being indubitably beleeved yea assured to be the bold broacher and impious Author of those blasphemous Queries Together with his 12 subtile and most deceiveable Cautions full fraught with sly insinuations and most abusive expressions against the work and way of Reformation intended by the Parliament These 12 Cautions also being printed by and for these two foresaid base Brokers who for filthy lucre set forth all or most of his bould botcheries and blasphemies Thus you see how obedient Master Goodwin is and hath been to yeild subjection to the just and lawfull impositions of men in lawfull yea supream authority in his practises thus far And now let us see how he reverenceth them in their great concernments of the Kingdome and with what faithfulnesse and simplicity of heart this good and meek-minded man hath observed and respected the Parliament in his judgement and reverend opinion of them And this cannot be better seen and shown than under his own hand writing herein also in his proud and pernicitus piece entituled Innocencies Triumph and in his lavish and licentious preaching in Coleman-street where also he hath notoriously endeavoured to blend and blemish if not quite extinguish as much as in him was the Ecclesiasticall jurisdiction of Parliaments printing and professing That the generality and promiscuous multitude of the World who have aright in nominating persons to Parliamentary trust and power are but a secular root out of which the Independents conceive and Master J. G. with them that there is an impossibility that a spirituall extraction should be made and that a man may as well bring a clean thing out of an unclean in Jobs expression as make a spirituall extraction out of this secular-root which hath no authority no authority marke his words from Christ to nominate or appoint who shall order the affairs of Christs Kingdom or institute the government of his Church c. Thus Mr. Goodwin in sum insinuating that on this ground the Parliament hath no authority or power to enact Laws or Statutes in matters of Religion c. as learned religious and ever to be honoured Master Prin in his * excellent answer to Mr. J. G. hath at large related and judiciously and truly dilated to Mr. Goodwins eternall shame if at least he had any in him for he outfaceth all with most bold lying and subtill denying All as if he poor man were still mistaken and misinterpreted in all he speaks or writes yea notwithstanding that Mr. Prin affirms and I am most confident his testimony is true that Mr. Goodwin voluntarily confessed these things before the Parliaments Committee and for which his so unsufferably audacious and presumptuous affronting and undermining the Parliaments undoubted priviledges he was most worthily sequestred from his living in Coleman-street and should have been farther proceeded against to imprisonment c. had he not been favoured by some far more than he deserved Yea and as Mr. Prin testifies in that foresaid place this most notorious Lyer who as you heard before did pretend such reverence and obsequious observance to the great concernments of the Kingdom in the Parliaments hands and who in this his tother dayes Epistle to the Lords and Commons in Parliament professed like an immarbled Dissembler that he had from the beginning thitherto served them with all faithfulnesse and simplicity of heart did in a most daring manner even whilst he was under examination most boldly preach over the same things in substance again in his pulpit on a solemn Fast day and published them with additions in two severall printed Pamphlets yea and after his censure for this his foule delinquencie and obstinate insolencie he did once more in a higher strain than before like an incorrigible Delinquent or Malignant indeed preach
