A33370	A paradisical dialogue betwixt faith and reason disputing the high mysterious secrets of eternity, the like never extant in our revelation. As touching God in eternity, how he became time in flesh, and how he dyed in the grave, and ascended to his glory again. Also what the angels are in form and nature, and how the angel became a devil, and that devil man; and that this world was prepared for the devil, so this the devils kingdom; and what the soul is, with the place of its glory and torment. With a brief narration what a commission is, and how many commissions there are; what the difference of their worships, and how that the law was given to the devil; with a brief discourse on the catechism, the Lords Prayer, and the creeds; as also, a divine prospect to the elect of the Lord. Written by Law. Claxton, the onely true bishop and faithful messenger of Christ Jesus, creator of heaven and earth.	Claxton, Laurence, 1615-1667.	1660 (1660)	Wing C4581; ESTC R215220	88,691	122

day_n of_o resurrection_n and_o that_o

example_n more_o only_o one_o more_o i_o shall_v quote_v which_o be_v more_o remarkable_a than_o those_o before_o and_o then_o let_v i_o heat_v thy_o answer_n and_o that_o be_v touch_v the_o man_n that_o live_v in_o the_o land_n of_o the_o gadarenes_n which_o man_n have_v devil_n 27_o luk._n 8._o 27_o a_o long_a time_n and_o wear_v no_o clothes_n neither_o abode_n in_o any_o house_n but_o in_o the_o tomb_n and_o no_o man_n can_v bind_v he_o no_o not_o with_o chain_n 4._o mark_v 5._o 4._o neither_o can_v any_o man_n tame_v he_o and_o always_o night_n and_o day_n he_o be_v in_o the_o mountain_n and_o in_o the_o tomb_n cry_v and_o cut_v himself_o with_o stone_n and_o all_o the_o devil_n in_o he_o beseech_v christ_n that_o they_o may_v go_v into_o the_o herd_n of_o swine_n which_o they_o have_v no_o soon_o enter_v but_o the_o man_n be_v well_o in_o his_o right_a mind_n and_o the_o whole_a herd_n of_o swine_n run_v violent_o down_o a_o s●eep_a place_n into_o the_o sea_n now_o if_o thou_o can_v make_v it_o apparent_a that_o these_o be_v no_o devil_n beside_o cain_n and_o his_o seed_n than_o i_o shall_v with_o thou_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v no_o other_o devil_n but_o man_n and_o woman_n faith_n from_o christ_n the_o only_a lord_n of_o glory_n in_o the_o revelation_n of_o his_o eternal_a spirit_n i_o affirm_v that_o those_o devil_n so_o titule_v from_o the_o first_o of_o matthew_n to_o the_o last_o of_o the_o revelation_n be_v only_o the_o seed_n of_o reason_n and_o the_o violent_a distemper_n of_o the_o imagination_n thereof_o as_o first_o mind_n that_o the_o devil_n that_o tempt_v christ_n be_v one_o of_o the_o able_a disputant_n whether_o a_o pharisee_fw-mi or_o sadducee_n i_o can_v by_o faith_n find_v yet_o by_o permission_n i_o judge_v he_o rather_o a_o sadducee_n they_o be_v the_o wise_a and_o subtle_a devil_n of_o the_o two_o i_o say_v the_o pharisee_n and_o sadducee_n commissionate_a this_o man_n which_o by_o experience_n they_o find_v be_v best_a verse_v in_o scripture_n to_o see_v if_o he_o can_v tempt_v the_o lord_n jesus_n to_o baptise_v they_o with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o fire_n so_o that_o i_o say_v this_o devil_n be_v a_o man_n of_o the_o same_o seed_n of_o those_o where_o it_o be_v write_v you_o shall_v not_o tempt_v the_o lord_n 6._o deut._n 6._o 6._o your_o god_n as_o you_o tempt_v he_o in_o massah_n again_o it_o be_v write_v when_o your_o father_n tempt_v i_o prove_v i_o and_o see_v my_o 9_o heb._n 3._o 9_o work_n 40_o year_n as_o at_o large_a thou_o may_v read_v in_o a_o book_n of_o i_o

and_o no_o other_o form_n or_o spirit_n whatsoever_o and_o again_o it_o be_v write_v that_o 14._o jam._n 1._o 14._o man_n be_v tempt_v when_o he_o ●s_v draw_v away_o of_o his_o own_o lust_n and_o entice_v so_o that_o i_o affirm_v there_o be_v no_o other_o devil_n but_o thy_o lustful_a soul_n within_o thou_o that_o do_v tempt_v thou_o to_o commit_v any_o wickedness_n act_v by_o thou_o so_o that_o i_o say_v the_o meaning_n of_o that_o satan_n enter_v judas_n be_v only_o this_o be_v by_o christ_n jesus_n discover_v that_o he_o be_v the_o man_n that_o shall_v betray_v he_o than_o forthwith_o nature_n in_o he_o enter_v into_o a_o resolution_n to_o betray_v the_o lord_n of_o life_n be_v then_o seal_v up_o to_o a_o reprobate_a mind_n go_v out_o to_o his_o brethren_n the_o pharasaical_a devil_n and_o sell_v he_o for_o thirty_o piece_n so_o that_o i_o say_v there_o be_v no_o other_o devil_n enter_v he_o but_o what_o be_v in_o he_o no_o more_o than_o will_v enter_v thou_o if_o thou_o be_v now_o damn_v by_o i_o only_o a_o spirit_n of_o torment_a envy_n will_v as_o it_o do_v in_o judas_n so_o flame_n and_o burn_v that_o if_o possible_a thou_o will_v destroy_v i_o as_o judas_n do_v christ_n reason_n notwithstanding_o what_o thou_o have_v say_v as_o touch_v a_o devil_n tempt_v or_o enter_v seem_v to_o have_v some_o colour_n of_o truth_n in_o it_o but_o than_o what_o will_v thou_o say_v of_o those_o devil_n that_o be_v cast_v out_o of_o mary_n and_o many_o other_o but_o especial_o of_o those_o legion_n that_o be_v cast_v out_o into_o the_o herd_n of_o swine_n for_o it_o be_v express_v when_o the_o devil_n be_v cast_v out_o of_o the_o man_n they_o go_v into_o the_o herd_n of_o swine_n so_o that_o sure_o this_o be_v something_o more_o than_o reason_n otherwise_o if_o reason_n be_v the_o devil_n and_o reason_n cast_v out_o than_o the_o man_n have_v not_o be_v clothe_v in_o his_o right_a mind_n but_o be_v altogether_o unreasonable_a faith_n let_v i_o speak_v never_o so_o plain_o thou_o can_v not_o understand_v i_o yet_o however_o this_o i_o shall_v tell_v thou_o that_o those_o devil_n which_o by_o the_o powerful_a word_n of_o christ_n jesus_n be_v cast_v out_o of_o mary_n magdalen_n or_o out_o of_o that_o man_n or_o any_o other_o creature_n speak_v of_o in_o holy_a writ_n be_v only_o all_o manner_n of_o filthy_a disease_n or_o violent_a fiery_a distemper_n that_o hurry_v that_o man_n about_o such_o desperate_a wickedness_n oftentimes_o increase_a so_o powerful_o that_o it_o do_v not_o only_a occasion_n to_o rend_v his_o own_o body_n and_o break_v iron_n chain_n but_o also_o ready_a to_o tear_v any_o one_o in_o piece_n as_o many_o of_o thy_o seed_n at_o this_o day_n be_v possess_v with_o devil_n by_o such_o as_o thou_o be_v believe_v to_o be_v devil_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o learned_a of_o thy_o seed_n have_v attempt_v by_o conjure_v physical_a medicament_n to_o chain_v up_o that_o distemper_n or_o cast_v out_o by_o vomit_n or_o purgation_n and_o such_o like_a deceitful_a mean_n which_o if_o thou_o be_v not_o stone_n blind_a may_v see_v that_o these_o suppose_a devil_n yet_o real_a distemper_n be_v no_o other_o but_o such_o as_o thou_o call_v lunatic_n frenzy_n madness_n convulsion_n or_o falling-sickness_n &_o such_o like_a proceed_n from_o melancholy_a be_v colerick_n corrupt_a humour_n of_o the_o blood_n that_o by_o these_o devilish_a distemper_n many_o of_o thy_o seed_n be_v chain_v up_o prisoner_n in_o bedlam_n all_o the_o day_n of_o their_o life_n which_o if_o they_o can_v be_v cast_v out_o by_o faith_n be_v lord_n over_o those_o colerick_n and_o melancholy_a distemper_n of_o the_o mind_n than_o they_o will_v by_o the_o divine_a knowledge_n of_o the_o true_a god_n be_v clothe_v in_o their_o right_a mind_n reason_n if_o this_o be_v as_o thou_o say_v only_o violent_a distemper_n in_o that_o man_n and_o so_o in_o marry_o what_o then_o be_v that_o which_o come_v out_o of_o the_o man_n and_o enter_v into_o the_o h●rd_a of_o ●wine_n and_o if_o they_o be_v only_a that_o we_o call_v disease_n why_o then_o be_v they_o call_v devil_n faith_n from_o life_n of_o that_o divine_a light_n in_o my_o soul_n i_o declare_v they_o be_v no_o other_o but_o violent_a distemper_n aforesaid_a which_o say_v disease_n by_o the_o powerful_a godhead_n in_o christ_n be_v command_v at_o the_o

tumble_v themselves_o into_o the_o sea_n by_o reason_n of_o that_o violent_a distemper_n or_o affliction_n that_o the_o swine_v become_v giddy_a in_o their_o head_n not_o able_a to_o preserve_v themselves_o through_o the_o violence_n of_o the_o say_a distraction_n now_o why_o the_o say_v distemper_n be_v call_v devil_n be_v because_o none_o shall_v know_v the_o true_a devil_n but_o the_o heir_n of_o glory_n for_o thou_o may_v read_v the_o whole_a transaction_n of_o christ_n be_v reveal_v in_o parable_n and_o the_o mystery_n of_o truth_n only_o reveal_v to_o the_o true_a believer_n of_o the_o lord_n of_o glory_n and_o if_o thou_o suppose_v they_o be_v devil_n what_o then_o do_v thou_o apprehend_v they_o to_o be_v and_o how_o get_v they_o into_o the_o herd_n of_o swine_n and_o not_o see_v reason_n i_o conceive_v the_o devil_n be_v invisible_a spirit_n that_o torment_v the_o man_n and_o so_o can_v convey_v themselves_o into_o the_o swine_n without_o the_o sight_n of_o any_o
