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

be_v bear_v of_o woman_n there_o have_v not_o rise_v a_o great_a than_o john_n the_o baptist_n and_o yet_o thou_o and_o thy_o teacher_n will_v not_o believe_v unless_o present_a vengeance_n fall_v

and_o therefore_o if_o thou_o do_v believe_v in_o they_o that_o have_v nothing_o but_o a_o dead_a letter_n to_o prove_v they_o commissioner_n sure_o than_o thou_o will_v believe_v in_o we_o that_o

yet_o from_o my_o wellspring_n within_o i_o i_o tell_v thou_o that_o as_o the_o scripture_n be_v write_v by_o the_o revelation_n or_o inspiration_n of_o faith_n so_o i_o know_v it_o be_v write_v for_o

christ_n these_o many_o hundred_o year_n since_o u●ere_v not_o the_o scripture_n write_v for_o our_o learning_n and_o if_o the_o scripture_n do_v not_o belong_v to_o all_o then_o also_o the_o law_n be_v void_a and_o belong_v to_o none_o so_o than_o none_o will_v be_v condemn_v as_o it_o be_v write_v i_o have_v not_o know_v sin_n but_o by_o the_o law_n and_o the_o law_n make_v sin_n exceed_v sinful_a so_o that_o if_o the_o scripture_n do_v not_o belong_v to_o we_o than_o we_o be_v free_v from_o the_o law_n so_o then_o for_o all_o thy_o curse_n i_o shall_v be_v as_o happy_a as_o thou_o faith_n in_o this_o last_o answer_n i_o shall_v finish_v my_o discourse_n as_o touch_v the_o truth_n and_o variety_n of_o these_o three_o commission_n in_o that_o i_o have_v already_o so_o infallible_o treat_v of_o they_o in_o the_o first_o chapter_n of_o the_o quaker_n downfall_n i_o shall_v no_o long_o demur_v with_o thou_o upon_o this_o but_o shall_v divide_v the_o head_n of_o thy_o question_n into_o these_o particular_n and_o so_o exact_o answer_v they_o as_o they_o lie_v in_o order_n 1._o that_o thou_o believe_v the_o apostle_n commission_n be_v to_o continue_v to_o the_o ●nd_n of_o this_o world_n 2._o that_o though_o all_o the_o commissioner_n be_v dead_a that_o have_v power_n to_o invest_v another_o yet_o thou_o have_v the_o same_o spirit_n though_o as_o thou_o say_v not_o the_o same_o measure_n yet_o thou_o believe_v thou_o may_v pray_v prithee_o and_o baptize_v from_o the_o letter_n as_o they_o do_v 3._o thou_o say_v if_o you_o have_v not_o thus_o do_v how_o shall_v the_o world_n have_v come_v this_o hundred_o year_n to_o have_v know_v god_n or_o christ_n hell_n heaven_n or_o devil_n 4._o thou_o say_v if_o the_o scripture_n do_v not_o belong_v to_o thy_o seed_n than_o the_o law_n do_v not_o belong_v to_o thou_o and_o so_o thou_o conclude_v all_o shall_v be_v happy_a as_o we_o 1._o first_o i_o declare_v that_o the_o apostle_n commission_n be_v to_o continue_v to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n hold_v forth_o in_o that_o commission_n for_o this_o i_o know_v be_v the_o condition_n of_o thy_o father_n the_o jew_n that_o do_v as_o real_o believe_v it_o blasphemy_n for_o christ_n or_o the_o apostle_n to_o p●t_v a_o end_n to_o the_o ceremonial_a part_n of_o the_o law_n as_o now_o thou_o do_v that_o our_o commission_n shall_v put_v a_o end_n to_o all_o formal_a worship_n under_o the_o gospel_n but_o however_o i_o say_v unto_o thou_o as_o christ_n say_v to_o thy_o father_n think_v not_o that_o i_o be_o come_v to_o destroy_v the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n i_o be_o not_o come_v to_o destroy_v but_o fulfil_v so_o i_o be_o come_v not_o to_o destroy_v the_o reveal_v transaction_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o to_o tell_v thou_o and_o thy_o seed_n that_o as_o there_o be_v to_o be_v three_o commission_n before_o the_o end_n of_o this_o world_n so_o i_o know_v that_o every_o commission_n be_v a_o world_n in_o itself_o and_o to_o itself_o and_o when_o the_o commissioner_n die_v that_o commissionate_a world_n end_v with_o they_o otherwise_o thou_o may_v call_v god_n a_o liar_n to_o promise_v he_o will_v be_v with_o they_o to_o the_o end_n of_o this_o world_n and_o many_o hundred_o year_n ago_o they_o be_v all_o dead_a and_o yet_o this_o world_n remain_v so_o that_o as_o i_o know_v the_o command_n be_v to_o none_o but_o they_o and_o to_o hold_v no_o long_o than_o the_o life_n of_o they_o so_o i_o know_v that_o the_o begin_n of_o one_o commission_n here_o below_o be_v the_o end_n of_o another_o as_o thou_o be_v not_o ignorant_a what_o overturning_n here_o have_v be_v in_o your_o kingdom_n to_o the_o admiration_n of_o the_o inhabitant_n so_o be_v the_o commission_n of_o god_n the_o beginning_n of_o one_o be_v the_o end_n of_o another_o by_o which_o the_o infiniteness_n of_o the_o divine_a revelation_n in_o the_o person_n of_o god_n be_v the_o more_o admire_v to_o behold_v the_o seem_a contrariety_n of_o these_o three_o commission_n that_o one_o put_v a_o period_n to_o the_o other_o as_o a_o great_a light_n cloud_n the_o use_n of_o the_o other_o not_o but_o the_o moon_n be_v a_o true_a light_n in_o herself_o but_o live_v in_o the_o light_n of_o the_o sun_n we_o have_v no_o need_n of_o the_o light_n of_o the_o moon_n so_o the_o apostle_n light_v be_v more_o glorious_a than_o that_o of_o the_o law_n therefore_o no_o need_n of_o the_o ceremonial_a part_n of_o the_o law_n so_o our_o light_n be_v far_o more_o glorious_a than_o that_o of_o the_o apostle_n therefore_o no_o need_n of_o the_o formal_a worship_n of_o the_o gospel_n 2._o second_o see_v the_o beginning_n of_o one_o commission_n be_v the_o end_n of_o another_o how_o then_o can_v thou_o plead_v for_o a_o succession_n of_o the_o formal_a worship_n in_o the_o gospel_n after_o all_o the_o commissioner_n of_o the_o first_o or_o second_o magnitude_n be_v put_v to_o death_n by_o thy_o father_n now_o if_o only_o the_o apostle_n have_v only_o be_v p●t_n to_o death_n yet_o if_o timothy_n or_o titus_n who_o be_v bishop_n or_o messenger_n authorize_v by_o they_o have_v be_v preserve_v in_o the_o continuance_n of_o that_o commission_n they_o may_v by_o the_o same_o power_n have_v continue_v the_o bishopric_n by_o their_o imposition_n of_o hand_n up●n_v another_o if_o so_o the_o effect_n thereof_o will_v not_o have_v produce_v such_o blind_a lordly_a bishop_n with_o lawn_n sleeve_n cap_n tippit_n and_o such_o like_a foppery_n as_o ever_o since_o have_v continue_v so_o that_o if_o thou_o be_v not_o stone_n blind_a thou_o may_v all_o along_o discern_v there_o be_v no_o succession_n consider_v the_o divine_a knowledge_n and_o poor_a mean_a estate_n of_o the_o true_a bishop_n and_o the_o humane_a knowledge_n and_o lordly_a ragin_v of_o all_o the_o false_a bishop_n ever_o since_o as_o it_o be_v not_o many_o year_n ago_o since_o the_o roman_a lordly_a authority_n have_v the_o whole_a power_n in_o this_o nation_n as_o in_o all_o other_o place_n though_o now_o of_o late_a from_o that_o great_a monster_n bishop_n the_o whore_n of_o babylon_n there_o have_v spring_v six_o son_n or_o generation_n one_o from_o the_o loin_n of_o another_o yet_o each_o one_o refine_a more_o than_o his_o father_n as_o the_o episcopal_a more_o than_o the_o papist_n the_o presbyter_n more_o than_o that_o and_o the_o independent_a more_o than_o that_o and_o the_o baptist_n more_o than_o that_o and_o the_o ranter_n more_o than_o that_o and_o the_o quaker_n more_o than_o you_o all_o insomuch_o that_o the_o father_n have_v disow_v the_o child_n as_o the_o child_n now_o do_v the_o father_n and_o yet_o the_o refine_a son_n of_o they_o be_v but_o a_o formal_a worshipper_n in_o the_o gospel_n which_o when_o the_o last_o son_n be_v beget_v o●_n as_o it_o be_v write_v the_o last_o angel_n sound_v viz._n the_o quaker_n than_o the_o mysierie_a of_o truth_n be_v reveal_v that_o be_v our_o commission_n be_v give_v by_o voice_n of_o word_n from_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n as_o moses_n and_o the_o apostle_n be_v which_o spiritual_a commission_n of_o we_o do_v abolish_v all_o formal_a worship_n in_o the_o gospel_n as_o the_o apostle_n do_v the_o circumcision_n with_o the_o blood_n of_o bull_n and_o goat_n and_o all_o such_o traditional_a ceremony_n attend_v the_o law_n and_o therefore_o as_o i_o be_o a_o bishop_n or_o messenger_n authorize_v in_o the_o power_n of_o my_o revelation_n confirm_v by_o the_o commission_n of_o this_o last_o witness_n so_o be_v in_o the_o height_n of_o revelation_n with_o they_o i_o say_v that_o your_o pray_v preach_a break_v of_o bread_n or_o baptism_n be_v now_o of_o no_o more_o value_n than_o circumcision_n or_o the_o blood_n of_o bull_n and_o goat_n be_v in_o the_o commission_n of_o the_o apostle_n which_o circumstance_n be_v of_o high_a prize_n and_o great_a value_n in_o the_o day_n of_o moses_n though_o not_o regard_v by_o the_o apostle_n so_o all_o formal_a worship_n of_o
