A76101 The arrovv of the Almighty shot out of the creatures bowe, against the uncalled ministers in England. Or, A messages sent to them to forewarn them of their determined destruction, before it fall upon them. Likewise here is shewed, from whence they had their calling into the ministery; and how all people have been decieved by them. Here is also a glass wherein all formalists may see their own deformity, and so seek after that which is the substance, wherein all their deformity shall be done away. Likewise here is opened the mystery of the Lords Supper, and the mystery in Baptism; and how there is a threefold Baptism, having relation to the three fold name of Father, Son, and Holy Ghost; with other truths very needful to be known. All of them being laid down in as brief a manner as possiblemay be, for the use and instruction of the Presbyterians, Independants, and Anabaptists, so called; or for the good of all others who have a minde to seek God in a right way; and in the conclusion, a word to the free-gracians.

observe_v and_o be_v fix_v fast_o in_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o the_o thing_n signify_v in_o and_o by_o these_o thing_n as_o we_o may_v see_v by_o david_n solomon_n and_o isaiah_n and_o jeremiah_n and_o

height_n of_o his_o kingdom_n will_v be_v but_o i_o can_v wish_v those_o poor_a blind_a fool_n among_o you_o to_o turn_v their_o eye_n inward_a and_o look_v for_o the_o reign_v of_o christ_n in_o

that_o be_v in_o their_o own_o heart_n and_o therefore_o not_o know_v the_o mystery_n of_o selfnesse_n in_o they_o the_o devil_n have_v power_n to_o work_v in_o their_o fancy_n and_o make_v they_o

without_o the_o power_n of_o god_n and_o as_o yet_o they_o have_v not_o receive_v the_o truth_n as_o it_o be_v in_o jesus_n neither_o do_v they_o love_v the_o truth_n nor_o can_v love_v it_o because_o they_o do_v not_o know_v it_o and_o for_o this_o cause_n god_n send_v such_o very_a strong_a delusion_n 2_o thess_n 2.8_o 9_o but_o to_o let_v these_o pass_v with_o their_o fantastic_a conceit_n i_o will_v speak_v a_o word_n in_o general_a to_o you_o as_o i_o find_v you_o state_v in_o a_o form_n to_o which_o you_o keep_v as_o close_v in_o your_o order_n as_o do_v the_o presbyterian_o yea_o and_o as_o hidebound_a to_o your_o form_n as_o be_v the_o papist_n and_o though_o your_o form_n be_v somewhat_o more_o regulate_v than_o the_o presbyterian_o yet_o do_v you_o not_o dissent_v from_o their_o

and_o you_o all_o dance_n after_o one_o pipe_n and_o can_v agree_v to_o hear_v its_o music_n for_o that_o melody_n please_v you_o all_o and_o this_o musicioner_n be_v the_o devil_n and_o his_o pipe_n

all_o in_o one_o yet_o you_o who_o be_v of_o the_o order_n of_o independency_n i_o must_v confess_v have_v something_o among_o you_o in_o your_o form_n which_o i_o honour_v and_o approve_v of_o you_o for_o it_o as_o you_o be_v formalist_n and_o that_o be_v because_o you_o have_v not_o as_o yet_o tie_v or_o constrain_v any_o to_o observe_v the_o same_o way_n of_o worship_n with_o you_o but_o as_o yet_o leave_v every_o one_o to_o his_o own_o freedom_n in_o way_n of_o worship_n in_o case_n he_o or_o they_o be_v not_o open_a blasphemer_n so_o far_o all_o be_v well_o and_o further_o you_o be_v not_o altogether_o so_o hidebound_a to_o the_o unsent_a priest_n as_o the_o presbyterian_o be_v though_o i_o know_v you_o can_v as_o yet_o clear_o see_v what_o they_o be_v and_o therefore_o you_o

to_o be_v carry_v out_o to_o the_o world_n or_o any_o create_a thing_n whatsoever_o but_o all_o the_o fear_n care_n love_n and_o desire_n of_o any_o thing_n below_o god_n be_v subdue_v in_o that_o

to_o either_o of_o these_o or_o to_o both_o and_o yet_o know_v it_o not_o but_o think_v themselves_o free_a and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o they_o never_o find_v bondage_n in_o their_o captivity_n but_o rather_o freedom_n and_o indeed_o while_o man_n live_v in_o a_o form_n he_o know_v not_o the_o bondage_n of_o that_o form_n but_o find_v freedom_n in_o the_o form_n yea_o more_o freedom_n then_o before_o he_o take_v the_o form_n upon_o he_o for_o before_o he_o take_v the_o form_n upon_o he_o his_o conscience_n have_v power_n to_o condemn_v but_o now_o in_o the_o form_n blind_a conscience_n

these_o thing_n no_o more_o than_o the_o jew_n who_o boast_v of_o be_v abraham_n seed_n and_o never_o be_v in_o bondage_n jo._n 8._o but_o the_o reason_n why_o bondage_n be_v not_o feel_v in_o thing_n

of_o christ_n in_o the_o divine_a nature_n and_o so_o be_v make_v willing_a thereby_o to_o wait_v for_o the_o out-pouring_a or_o shed_v abroad_o of_o the_o same_o to_o cleanse_v and_o wash_v away_o

in_o opposition_n against_o they_o when_o they_o pierce_v or_o present_v themselves_o into_o the_o soul_n likewise_o by_o the_o power_n of_o this_o faith_n man_n be_v make_v to_o see_v the_o

every_o thing_n which_o keep_v it_o back_o from_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o its_o life_n and_o in_o this_o manner_n the_o axe_n be_v lay_v to_o the_o root_n of_o the_o tree_n viz._n the_o sharp_a cut_a part_n or_o the_o law_n in_o its_o inward_a and_o spiritual_a requiring_n whereby_o the_o bowl_n of_o sin_n become_v cut_v down_o viz._n the_o strength_n of_o desire_n love_n care_n or_o fear_v of_o or_o to_o any_o thing_n below_o the_o love_n and_o life_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n become_v cut_v down_o and_o cast_v into_o the_o fire_n viz._n into_o the_o anger_n of_o god_n by_o which_o they_o become_v burn_v and_o consume_v but_o yet_o it_o can_v be_v true_o say_v that_o anger_n be_v in_o god_n whereby_o he_o can_v be_v make_v to_o change_v or_o to_o suffer_v for_o anger_n and_o love_n be_v both_o the_o same_o in_o the_o essence_n of_o god_n and_o that_o which_o be_v love_n in_o god_n the_o same_o be_v anger_n in_o we_o and_o it_o be_v the_o love_n of_o god_n that_o make_v we_o feel_v his_o anger_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o sin_n that_o the_o love_n meet_v with_o in_o we_o and_o so_o by_o reason_n of_o that_o love_n of_o god_n in_o we_o and_o that_o sin_n it_o meet_v with_o in_o we_o the_o suffering_n be_v produce_v which_o we_o feel_v and_o that_o suffering_n be_v call_v the_o anger_n of_o god_n and_o thus_o we_o be_v right_o to_o judge_v of_o the_o anger_n of_o god_n but_o now_o the_o soul_n be_v bring_v into_o this_o suffer_a way_n or_o plunge_a condition_n under_o the_o baptism_n of_o john_n or_o spiritual_a cut_n of_o the_o law_n wherein_o the_o abomination_n that_o make_v desolate_a begin_v to_o appear_v then_o grow_v such_o a_o soul_n to_o sink_v down_o into_o great_a humility_n and_o in_o patience_n wait_v for_o the_o appear_v of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n who_o must_v in_o the_o manifest_v of_o his_o name_n restore_v peace_n and_o give_v comfort_n and_o deliver_v the_o soul_n out_o of_o that_o great_a desolation_n make_v in_o it_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o great_a abomination_n and_o so_o it_o be_v that_o when_o the_o soul_n be_v right_o prepare_v by_o the_o second_o baptism_n of_o john_n then_o in_o his_o own_o time_n and_o place_n the_o name_n of_o the_o son_n become_v manifest_v in_o that_o soul_n and_o the_o lord_n who_o it_o have_v seek_v do_v come_v into_o his_o temple_n mal._n 3.2_o and_o then_o it_o be_v that_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o name_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n become_v powerful_a in_o deliver_v the_o soul_n out_o of_o that_o desolate_a wilderness_n from_o among_o the_o enemy_n that_o it_o find_v there_o and_o those_o lust_n that_o lead_v it_o captive_n be_v become_v captive_v and_o the_o shadow_n of_o death_n be_v dissipate_v and_o the_o garment_n of_o mourning_n be_v cast_v off_o and_o the_o soul_n clothe_v in_o the_o garment_n of_o praise_n and_o then_o the_o soul_n can_v rejoice_v and_o right_o sing_v haleluia_o to_o he_o that_o have_v do_v these_o thing_n for_o it_o and_o thus_o it_o be_v that_o god_n in_o the_o second_o appearance_n in_o the_o distinct_a property_n become_v to_o be_v know_v in_o a_o more_o sweet_a and_o love_v and_o peaceable_a manner_n than_o he_o be_v know_v in_o the_o first_o name_n before_o the_o godhead_n have_v divide_v itself_o as_o be_v before_o say_v and_o thus_o moses_n in_o the_o first_o dispensation_n under_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n by_o his_o baptism_n reach_v out_o the_o soul_n to_o john_n and_z john_n in_o the_o second_o dispensation_n lead_v out_o the_o soul_n to_o christ_n and_o so_o the_o soul_n can_v true_o witness_v the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n i_o will_v have_v enlarge_v more_o upon_o the_o baptism_n of_o john_n but_o that_o i_o have_v already_o speak_v something_o thereof_o in_o a_o little_a treatise_n

the_o which_o i_o have_v omit_v here_o but_o now_o i_o proceed_v and_o speak_v a_o word_n of_o the_o three_o baptism_n viz._n the_o baptism_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o be_v more_o excellent_a than_o the_o other_o two_o former_a because_o of_o its_o time_n operation_n and_o effect_n of_o which_o i_o shall_v speak_v hereafter_o and_o this_o baptism_n be_v witness_v
