THE SERMON AND PROPHECIE OF Mr. JAMES HVNT of the County of Kent Who professeth himselfe a Prophet Which hee hath endeavoured to deliver in most Churches in and about London but since delivered in the Old-Baily Octob. 9. 1641. Written with his owne hand Prophet Hunt Printed for Thomas Bates 1641. A plaine and briefe exhortation to shew vnto all people the true and perfect way how they may be delivered from the bondage of Hell and Corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God Wherefore Christian Reader I Prophet Hunt doe beseech you for the mercies of God and the true love that is in Jesus Christ that you will reade this Booke thorough with observation which I hope will bee to your everlasting joy and glory St. Paul said unto Timothy in the 2. Epist Chap. 2. vers 5. Study to shew thy selfe approved unto God a workman that needeth not to be ashamed rightly dividing the word of Truth so all those places of Scripture in the new Testament which doth belong to the glorious body of Christ I gather into one body to the praise and glory of God and to the edifying of the hearers but on the other side all those places of Scripture which doth concerne the old Law which Christ hath redeemed us from and false doctrine of carnall men I gather that into another Body and doe prove that belongeth to the body of corruption and beareth image of the earthy Now J come to my text in the 4. Galath vers 4. WHen the fulnesse of time was come God sent forth his Son made of a woman made under the law to redeeme them that were under the Law that we might receive the adopt●on of Sons but the Divines that are under the authority of the Bishops they say that Christ hath redeemed us but from the Ceremony of the old Law but the Morality thereof shall abide for ever which they say is the 10. Commandements so they keepe the Old Testimony still in use because of the 10 Commandements but I can by the helpe and power of God plainly prove that the Ministration of the new Testament doth make mention of a two-fold Law and Commandements one to be unto death and condemnation the other to be unto everlasting life and justification for Christ Iesus is the Law and the Commandements in the Doctrine of the New Testament which is the booke of life for God gave him to be head over all things to the Church which is his body the fulnesse of him that filleth all in all for the Priest-hood being changed there is made of necessity a change also of the Law H●b 7. ● 12 for hee of whom those things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe of which no man gave attendance at the Altar for it is evident that our Lord sprung out of Iudah of which tribe Moses speake nothing concerning Priest-hood it is yet farre more evident for that after the similitude of Melchezadeck there ariseth another Priest who is made not after the Law of a carnall Commandement but after the power of an endlesse life for the Lord sweares and will not repent thou art a Priest for ever after the order of Melchizadeck by so much as Iesus made a surety of a better Testament ver 21. for in that hee saith a new Covenant a new Testament he hath made the first old now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away Heb. 8. v. 13. for there is verily a disanulling of the Commandement going before Heb. 7. v. 18. A disanulling signifies a putting away and to make void for the Commandement which was ordained to life I found that to be unto death Rom. 7. v. 10. for Christ hath abolished death and hath brought Mortality into light as I prove Ephe. 2. v. 15. having abolished in his flesh the emnity even the Law of Commandements contained in Ordinances for to make in himselfe of twaine one in man so making peace and that hee might reconcile both unto God in one body by the Crosse having slaine the emnity thereby that is Sinne and death thereby he saith he hath abolished in his flesh the Law of Commandements contained in Ordinances which I shall plainly prove to be the Ministration of the old Testament which St. Paul calleth the Ministration of death for he saith in the second Epistle to the Cor. ver 7. if the Ministration of death written and ingraven in stones was glorious so that the Children of Israel could not stedfastly behold the face of Moses or the glory of his countenance which glory was to be done away J understand the 10 Commandements was delivered to Moses on Tables of stone and a Ministration was raised thereby and circumcision and those Ordinances which are named in the 9. chap. Heb. ver 19. did belong to the old Testament for when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the Law he tooke the blood of Calves and of Goates with water and scarlet Wooll and Isope and sprinkled both the booke and all the people he saith plainly hee sprinkled both the booke and all the people saying this is the blood of the Testament which God hath enjoyned unto you thus I have plainly proved that Circumcision and those Ordinances which here I have named did belong to the Old Testament which is the Law of Commandements contained in Ordinances which Christ hath abolished by his Passion on the Crosse which is the Antichristian flesh and blood which gendereth to the body of corruption and beareth Image of the Earthy but on the other side I understand and prove that Baptisme and the Sacrament of Bread and Wine they are two holy Ordinances which doth belong to the glorious body of Jesus Christ which is the true Christian flesh and bloud which liveth and abideth forever againe I can prove the whole Doctrine of the New Testament is all the Commanding power of God to teach and instruct his people how they should endeavour themselves what to follow and what they should flye my first prove is in the 28. of Matth. ver 18. Jesus came and spake unto his Disciples saying all power is given unto me in Heaven and in Earth goe yee therefore and teach all Nation Baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Sonne and of the Holy Ghost teaching them to observe all those things whatsoever I have commanded you againe in the 1 of the Cor. 14. chap. ver 29. Then the Apostle speakes unto the Church saying Let the Prophet speake two or three and let the other judge for yee all may Prophecy one by one that all may learne and all may bee comforted Againe in the 37. verse hee saith if any man thinke himselfe to be a Prophet or Spirituall Let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the Commandements of the Lord now in all this Chapter hee doth not make mention of any one of those Commandements which was delivered to Moses on
