A06199	Cum bono Deo Raine from the clouds, vpon a choicke angel: or, A returned answere, to that common quæritur of our adversaries, VVhere was your church before Luther? Digested into several meditations, according to the difference of points. Extorted off the author, for stilling the vncessant, and no lesse clamorous coassation of some patmicke frogges, against the lawfulness of our calling.

cap._n 2._o verse_n 11.12_o where_o we_o shall_v see_v what_o be_v his_o construction_n of_o the_o uncircumcision_n during_o that_o their_o state_n to_o wit_n people_n without_o christ_n aliens_n from_o the_o commonwealth_n of_o israel_n stranger_n from_o the_o covenant_n of_o promise_n yea_o without_o hope_n and_o without_o god_n in_o the_o world_n from_o hence_o thus_o i_o reason_n if_o there_o be_v any_o salvation_n for_o those_o of_o the_o uncircumcision_n or_o for_o those_o without_o the_o jewishe_a church_n for_o circumcision_n be_v their_o sacrament_n of_o initiation_n then_o be_v there_o salvation_n for_o people_n without_o christ_n for_o aliante_n from_o the_o commonwealth_n of_o israel_n for_o stranger_n from_o the_o covenant_n of_o promise_n yea_o for_o people_n without_o hope_n and_o without_o god_n in_o the_o world_n but_o i_o hope_v our_o adversary_n dare_v not_o aver_v that_o there_o be_v or_o can_v be_v any_o salvation_n for_o such_o ergo_fw-la there_o be_v no_o salvation_n or_o yet_o can_v be_v without_o the_o jewish_a church_n as_o to_o the_o instance_n from_o which_o they_o go_v about_o to_o instance_n this_o exception_n in_o the_o particular_a of_o job_n and_o melchisedecke_n first_o of_o the_o first_o i_o grant_v indeed_o that_o it_o be_v well_o hard_o divine_v about_o the_o time_n or_o of_o the_o time_n wherein_o job_n live_v but_o even_o from_o off_o of_o this_o uncertainty_n i_o collect_v that_o this_o instance_n draw_v from_o his_o person_n can_v prove_v of_o great_a force_n and_o demonstrativelie_o conclude_v this_o their_o point_n next_o give_v he_o live_v under_o the_o law_n and_o yet_o be_v not_o circumcise_v be_v it_o safe_a argument_v thus_o to_o reason_n from_o one_o particular_a exemple_n against_o the_o constant_a tenor_n of_o the_o whole_a scripture_n deny_v salvation_n to_o those_o who_o be_v not_o enrol_v among_o the_o people_n of_o god_n by_o circumcision_n yet_o if_o it_o shall_v not_o offend_v i_o will_v gather_v for_o myself_o that_o he_o be_v so_o far_o from_o live_v in_o the_o day_n of_o moses_n that_o at_o the_o least_o he_o live_v before_o abraham_n out_o of_o the_o last_o of_o his_o book_n at_o the_o upshot_n from_o that_o his_o age_n where_o it_o be_v say_v and_o after_o this_o live_v job_n a_o hundred_o and_o forty_o year_n and_o see_v his_o son_n and_o his_o son_n son_n even_o four_o generation_n etc._n etc._n now_o what_o convenient_a time_n can_v we_o assign_v to_o he_o before_o this_o if_o we_o assign_v to_o he_o but_o some_o fifty_o or_o sixty_o year_n his_o whole_a day_n shall_v amount_v to_o some_o two_o hundred_o year_n or_o thereabout_a now_o we_o see_v not_o any_o in_o the_o day_n of_o moses_n to_o have_v come_v near_o this_o age_n nay_o we_o read_v not_o of_o any_o after_o abraham_n that_o come_v to_o such_o yea_o he_o live_v not_o so_o long_o himself_o last_o the_o whole_a narrative_n of_o his_o history_n will_v seem_v to_o make_v he_o more_o ancient_a than_o moses_n but_o i_o take_v not_o upon_o i_o to_o define_v aught_o here_o only_o i_o will_v show_v that_o our_o adversary_n can_v argument_n but_o well_o weakelie_a from_o so_o slender_a and_o so_o uncertain_a a_o warrant_n as_o to_o the_o other_o instance_n of_o melchisedeck_n i_o be_o ashamed_a so_o much_o as_o to_o mention_v it_o but_o the_o least_o for_o he_o be_v say_v express_o to_o have_v bless_v abraham_n before_o his_o circumcision_n or_o receive_v of_o the_o seal_n of_o the_o alliance_n or_o covenant_n and_o to_o have_v teethe_v levi_n in_o abraham_n loin_n true_o
