Haggar's poysonous pamphlet, entitled, The foundation of the font discovered: or, A reply wherein his audaciousness in perverting holy scriptures and humane writings is discovered, his sophistry in arguing against infant-baptism, discipleship, church membership &c. is detected, his contradictions demonstrated; his cavils agains M.

M. Haggar no right to his house or horse c. unlesse he can produce an expresse place of Scripture where he hath fair evidences for the one and toll'd in the Fair for the other 2. You have been told that we have as good a right in the tenth part as the people have in their nine parts and if our people have liberty to seek redresse in case any shall wrong them in the nine parts or any part thereof then have we the same in case of the tenth 2. I discern your cunning craftinesse whereby you lye in wait to deceive what Scriptures we have brought justly against Antichrist you bring unjustly against us that your holy Father of Rome may not be so called This is your design Gallant service Sure his Holinesse will reward you with an hallowed sword or a Phoenix-feather as he hath done some other of his Champions As you cry against our carnal weapons p. 132.

Therefore I say the Major and Minor are both false and H. H. can never make them true while the world standeth I will give his Argument again if he will be beholding to me whosoever doth causelesly and unjustly separate from a Church is a Schismatick But Mr. Hag. c. do causelesly and unjustly Separate Therefore The Major is true by the unanimous consent of antient moderne Divines to say nothing of Scripture who describe Schisme by an unjust separation c. The Minor is proved because there is no Scripture to warrant a separation on all or any of those fore-mentioned grounds which H. H. calls four Pillars c.

the end of the Law for that is the Commandement l) 1 Tim. 1.5 7 8 9. as appears by the coherence is love out of a pure heart a good conscience and faith unfeigned What more can be said of the Gospel-Covenant as now dispensed then to bring us to Christ Faith unfeigned c. SECT 3. H. H. p. 55 56. The old Covenant did properly belong to the fleshly seed which had but the promise of an earthy Canaan under the curse bringing forth children to bondage Gal. 4.24 25. sealed by the blood of Bulls c. Heb. 9.19 20. and found fault with Heb. 8.6 c. Reply 1. Here is another piece of pure Socinianism viz. The old Covenant had but the promise of an earthly Canaan But by you● leav● i● held forth also spiritual and eternal blessings by Christ E. gr beside the foregoing instances m) Ames medul●l 1. c. 38. n. 23. Redemption in Melchizedecks person and b●essing Gen. 14 with Heb. 7 Vocation Heb. 11.8 9 10. Justincation Rom. 3.3.9 Sanctification Deut. 30.6 with Col. 2 11. and Glorification in heaven whe●eof that earthly Canaan was a Type Heb. 4.1 and Chap. 11. ver 13.14 15 16. 2. The Covenant of Grace though it hath been one and the same for substance since Adam's fall yet it hath been dispensed gradually as plants bruits and men come to their perfection in their kind by degrees as is evident if we consider how little at first was revealed to Adam fallen more to Noah more yet to Abraham far yet more to Moses and the Church in his time c. and yet more plentifully in David's and Solomon's time and more fully in the latter Prophets E. gr A Child is put into a Covenant for a Living enjo●es the benefit of it and is educated answerably though for the present he understands but little of the privileges and engagements of the Covenant but when at years is more fully instructed in the nature of the Covenant that he may perform the Articles and reap the benefits of it So was Israel n) Ezek 16.34 36 c. Hos 11 1. Gal. 4.1 23. owned in Covenant with God from its Infancy c. So then it 's true the Covenant of Grace is now more clearly and perfectly dispensed yet it follows not that the former Covenant was not a Covenant of Grace but rather the Covenant of Grace in another dresse Hence the New Covenant is a better Covenant i.e. gradually not specifically and the Old Covenant o) Heb. 8.7 8. faulty not simply for it was the institution of God but comparatively God complaining p) 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 as the word signifies of it's imperfection in respect of man's corruption and promising an higher dispensation 3 We must distinguish between the right use the godly made of the Old Covenant acording to God's primary intention and the misapprehension and the misapplication thereof by most of the Jews On the former account it was a Covenant of Grace as the foregoing instances shew on the latter it was lookt on as the Covenant of Works most of them expecting Justification c. by the works of the Law or partly by Works and partly by Faith which indeed are inconsistent For they were bound to take God for their God for justification which could not be but by Christ though not so clearly known and then to square their lives according to the Law as an evidence of that Faith Notwithstanding it 's granted that those commands in that Covenant were needful to drive them to the promise as well as the promise applied by Faith was to draw them to obedience of those commands But when they mistook the proper use of this Covenant and sought for justification by the Law they fell under the curse and condemnation of it q) 2 Cor. 3.6 ● 9. thus separating the letter from the Sprit it became a ministry of Death and condemnation but taken with the Spirit and used by Faith it was a Ministry of life and salvation to the faithful in those times yet this doth not make it a Covenant of Works no more then now the New Covenant among us because too many professing to embrace that covenant seek righteousness by their own works without a lively faith in Christ SECT 4. H. H. p. 56. Paul knew as well the intent and meaning of the Covenant of God with Abraham as Mr. B. and Mr. C. and yet he applieth it not to a fleshly seed Gen. 17.7 with Gal. 3.16 29. Rom. 4.13 9 7.8 c. Reply 1. You do not offer any proof that one and the same seed is to be understood in Gen. 17.7 and Gal. 3.16 your bare word will not be taken and that for these ensuing reasons to the contrary 1. The seed in Gen. 17. is called r) Gen. 17.7 8 9 10. four times Abraham's seed after him and twice after him in their Generations implying that Abraham was the primary party in covenant and his seed the secondary succeeding in time and dignity but Christ as to his person ſ) Joh. 8.58 was before Abraham and in the Covenant of Grace his Superior yea his Lord s) Psal 110.1 with Mat. 22.44 as well as Davids 2ly That seed imports many as ver 8. I will be their God but Christ is one as the Apostle urges in that place 3. That seed had their several generations or births successively springing up as ver 7. and 9. Their generations so had not Christ 4ly All the males of that seed were to be circumcised which were great multitudes but we cannot say properly that all the males of Christ were circumcised The coherence would afford more reasons if there were need 2. Admit which is not yet granted that Christ mystical i. e. the members with Christ the Head make one Christ * 1 Cor. 12.12 or blessed seed it makes nothing against their being of many in covenant visibly who fall short of justification and salvation Our question is not concerning the saving benefits of the Covenant certainly known to the seacher of the heart onely but concerning external being in Covenant according to God's gracious grant Now the place in Gen. ●7 shews that not onely Abraham and his children but Proselytes and their children were taken into covenant which grant was never repealed by God but often confirmed in the Old and New Testament the proofs whereof stand firm in Mr. C. book which you pretend to answer 3. The Apostle refers to Gen. 15. u) Gen 15.6 9 10 c. where after Abraham had professed his faith in that promise ver 5. and thereupon was accounted righteous ver 6. The covenant was confirmed by sacrifice God saying ver 18 In that same day Vnto thy seed have I given c Now this confirmation was 430 years before the Law Whereas that which is mentioned Gen. 17.7 was not so long a time as is v) See Pareus on Gal. 3.16 exactly and largely shewed
