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

if_o thou_o can_v make_v it_o apparent_a that_o these_o be_v no_o devil_n beside_o cain_n and_o his_o seed_n than_o i_o shall_v with_o thou_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v no_o other_o devil_n but_o

for_o it_o be_v express_v when_o the_o devil_n be_v cast_v out_o of_o the_o man_n they_o go_v into_o the_o herd_n of_o swine_n so_o that_o sure_o this_o be_v something_o more_o than_o reason_n

believe_v to_o be_v devil_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o learned_a of_o thy_o seed_n have_v attempt_v by_o conjure_v physical_a medicament_n to_o chain_v up_o that_o distemper_n or_o cast_v out_o by_o vomit_n or_o purgation_n and_o such_o like_a deceitful_a mean_n which_o if_o thou_o be_v not_o stone_n blind_a may_v see_v that_o these_o suppose_a devil_n yet_o real_a distemper_n be_v
