A47361	An answer to Mr. Marlow's Appendix Wherein his arguments to prove that singing of psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, was performed in the primitive church by a special or an extraordinary gift, and therefore not to be practised in these days, are examined, and clearly detected. Also some reflections on what he speaks on the word hymnos, hymnos: and on his undue quotations of divers learned men. By a learned hand. By B. Keach.

extraordinary_a gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o

prayer_n preach_v and_o sing_v also_o must_v we_o not_o pray_v prithee_o nor_o sing_v if_o we_o must_v not_o do_v one_o of_o they_o we_o must_v do_v none_o of_o they_o and_o therefore_o in_o opposition_n to_o what_o you_o say_v pag._n 13._o of_o your_o appendix_n if_o the_o practice_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o primitive_a church_n do_v not_o bind_v we_o to_o the_o observation_n of_o one_o ordinance_n viz._n that_o of_o sing_v it_o bind_v we_o to_o the_o observation_n of_o none_o it_o be_v time_n to_o look_v about_o we_o for_o your_o manner_n of_o argue_v i_o do_v declare_v as_o it_o be_v intimate_v to_o i_o the_o other_o day_n by_o my_o reverend_a brother_n knowles_n tend_v to_o the_o overthrow_n of_o all_o gospel-ordinance_n whatsoever_o therefore_o i_o warn_v all_o my_o brethren_n to_o take_v heed_n how_o they_o harken_v to_o you_o in_o this_o matter_n as_o they_o tender_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o the_o establishment_n of_o all_o gospel-worship_n and_o ordinance_n but_o to_o proceed_v it_o be_v a_o easy_a thing_n for_o any_o wary_a reader_n who_o be_v not_o willing_a to_o be_v deceive_v to_o perceive_v the_o man_n have_v a_o bad_a cause_n in_o hand_n and_o that_o he_o reason_v not_o like_o a_o wise_a and_o enlighten_v understanding_n christian_n which_o do_v full_o appear_v if_o we_o consider_v the_o false_a and_o preposterous_a medium_n or_o way_n he_o take_v to_o make_v out_o what_o he_o pretend_v to_o prove_v 1._o for_o one_o while_o he_o seem_v to_o assert_v that_o the_o essence_n of_o sing_v which_o be_v he_o say_v in_o our_o spirit_n that_o will_v serve_v our_o turn_n in_o discharge_n of_o the_o duty_n of_o sing_v forth_o god_n praise_n without_o employ_v our_o tongue_n or_o bodily_a organ_n in_o it_o which_o as_o i_o have_v again_o and_o again_o say_v do_v as_o well_o exclude_v vocal_a pray_v and_o preach_v etc._n etc._n as_o sing_v see_v pag._n 8._o of_o his_o first_o treatise_n 2._o then_o again_o at_o another_o time_n because_o there_o be_v other_o way_n to_o praise_n god_n beside_o sing_v of_o his_o praise_n we_o must_v not_o sing_v his_o praise_n at_o all_o appendix_n p._n 4_o 5._o 3._o at_o another_o time_n he_o seem_v to_o exclude_v all_o sing_v out_o of_o the_o bible_n from_o a_o improper_a signification_n of_o a_o greek_a word_n and_o strive_v to_o make_v it_o out_o it_o be_v only_o common_a praise_n or_o thanksgiving_n in_o prayer_n see_v the_o epistle_n to_o i_o and_o appendix_n p._n 1_o 2_o 3_o 4_o 5._o and_o so_o quarrel_n with_o the_o translator_n of_o the_o holy_a bible_n as_o if_o they_o want_v skill_n in_o the_o greek_a tongue_n or_o else_o faithfulness_n in_o render_v the_o word_n they_o sing_v a_o hymn_n which_o he_o tell_v you_o they_o shall_v have_v render_v they_o give_v thanks_o or_o say_v grace_n but_o further_a to_o clear_v our_o godly_a learned_a and_o pious_a translator_n of_o the_o bible_n let_v it_o be_v consider_v how_o careful_o they_o be_v in_o other_o case_n particular_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o word_n baptizo_fw-la which_o they_o never_o venture_v to_o translate_v rantizo_n sprinkle_v to_o favour_v their_o own_o practice_n but_o rather_o choose_v to_o leave_v the_o word_n in_o the_o original_a tongue_n and_o not_o translate_v it_o at_o all_o than_o to_o give_v a_o false_a signification_n of_o it_o 4._o but_o lest_o all_o these_o trick_n and_o shift_n shall_v fail_v he_o he_o fly_v to_o another_o break_a refuge_n viz._n intimate_v that_o the_o ordinance_n of_o sing_v do_v not_o belong_v to_o we_o now_o but_o may_v be_v practise_v by_o the_o saint_n hereafter_o in_o the_o thousand_o year_n reign_v or_o seven_o thousand_o year_n of_o this_o world_n which_o be_v a_o very_a doubtful_a point_n i_o mean_v whether_o there_o will_v be_v such_o a_o thousand_o year_n reign_v or_o not_o in_o his_o sense_n and_o yet_o this_o duty_n lie_v among_o other_o gospel-ordinance_n and_o precept_n give_v out_o by_o the_o spirit_n and_o enjoin_v on_o the_o church_n which_o be_v enough_o to_o shake_v the_o faith_n of_o our_o people_n in_o respect_n of_o other_o ordinance_n which_o they_o have_v as_o much_o reason_n to_o say_v may_v not_o belong_v to_o we_o but_o shall_v be_v practise_v in_o time_n to_o come_v when_o the_o church_n as_o the_o seeker_n say_v shall_v attain_v its_o first_o or_o original_a purity_n see_v pag._n 27._o of_o his_o discourse_n 5._o and_o last_o like_o a_o wary_a and_o foreseeing_a man_n to_o be_v sure_a to_o carry_v his_o cause_n he_o retire_v to_o his_o last_o fort_n and_o strong-hold_a and_o affirm_v that_o the_o ordinance_n of_o sing_v of_o psalm_n hymn_n etc._n etc._n be_v only_o in_o the_o primitive_a time_n perform_v by_o a_o extraordinary_a gift_n and_o unless_o we_o have_v such_o a_o gift_n we_o must_v not_o sing_v the_o praise_n of_o god_n now_o in_o these_o day_n though_o i_o have_v say_v enough_o to_o detect_v this_o fond_a conceit_n yet_o since_o he_o lead_v i_o in_o this_o path_n i_o must_v i_o perceive_v reply_v again_o as_o i_o have_v already_o do_v that_o this_o objection_n lie_v equal_o against_o prayer_n preach_v and_o interpret_n the_o scripture_n etc._n etc._n since_o all_o these_o gospel-duty_n and_o ordinance_n in_o the_o primitive_a and_o apostolical_a day_n be_v perform_v by_o the_o say_v extraordinary_a gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n if_o he_o can_v make_v this_o appear_v there_o be_v no_o need_n for_o he_o to_o trouble_v we_o with_o the_o greek_a word_n nor_o with_o any_o of_o his_o other_o medium_n he_o use_v to_o exclude_v gospel-singing_a it_o can_v but_o appear_v by_o this_o last_o shift_n he_o acknowledge_v that_o sing_v be_v somewhat_o more_o than_o that_o praise_v of_o god_n he_o speak_v of_o but_o these_o thing_n betray_v the_o man_n integrity_n or_o rather_o his_o weakness_n and_o show_v he_o do_v not_o argue_v but_o play_v the_o part_n of_o a_o sophister_n though_o not_o a_o cunning_a one_o because_o his_o nakedness_n plain_o appear_v to_o the_o mean_a capacity_n through_o his_o pitiful_a threadbare_a cover_v for_o if_o he_o have_v think_v his_o other_o medium_n will_v have_v serve_v his_o turn_n or_o hold_v the_o test_n we_o shall_v not_o have_v i_o be_o persuade_v hear_v any_o of_o this_o but_o however_o we_o will_v come_v to_o examine_v his_o pretend_a argument_n he_o bring_v to_o prove_v this_o assertion_n his_o first_o argument_n to_o prove_v sing_v be_v always_o perform_v from_o a_o special_a gift_n be_v in_o appendix_n pag._n 14._o for_o as_o the_o grace_n of_o joy_n be_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n say_v he_o and_o as_o god_n have_v promise_v the_o oil_n viz._n the_o spirit_n of_o joy_n for_o mourn_v so_o the_o primitive_a church_n have_v some_o earnest_n of_o it_o and_o do_v rejoice_v in_o hope_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o through_o the_o abundance_n of_o the_o spirit_n wherewith_o she_o be_v baptize_v her_o minister_n deliver_v the_o word_n of_o god_n in_o extraordinary_a way_n and_o manner_n viz._n by_o prophesy_v tongue_n and_o melodious_a sing_v answ_n 1._o have_v not_o believer_n now_o the_o holy_a spirit_n as_o well_o as_o they_o have_v it_o then_o though_o not_o in_o such_o a_o extraordinary_a manner_n and_o have_v not_o we_o the_o fruit_n of_o it_o i._n e._n joy_n peace_n etc._n etc._n in_o believe_v also_o you_o mistake_v yourself_o joy_n do_v not_o appertain_v to_o the_o gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n but_o it_o be_v a_o fruit_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n do_v not_o the_o saint_n now_o rejoice_v in_o hope_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n as_o well_o as_o they_o do_v then_o there_o be_v no_o such_o cause_n or_o ground_n from_o the_o reception_n of_o tongue_n or_o the_o extraordinary_a gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n as_o you_o intimate_v to_o sing_v the_o
