A66997	Law-power, or, The law of relation written in the heart of ministers and people by the finger of God, is mighty through Him, to prevaile with both : to live as a people separated to their God, and from the world, specially at the Lord's Table.	Woodward, Ezekias, 1590-1675.	1656 (1656)	Wing W3496; ESTC R25194	60,431	76
