A30898	The possibility and necessity of the inward immediate revelation of the spirit of God towards the foundation and ground of true faith, proved in a letter write [sic] in Latine, to a person of quality in Holland; and now also put into English.

exceed_v its_o cause_n which_o be_v against_o all_o sound_a reason_n that_o it_o shall_v bring_v forth_o what_o be_v of_o a_o high_a and_o more_o excellent_a kind_n therefore_o all_o idea_n whether_o of_o natural_a or_o spiritual_a thing_n be_v divin_o implant_v in_o our_o mind_n which_o nevertheless_o do_v not_o always_o appear_v but_o sometime_o appear_v and_o sometime_o be_v as_o it_o be_v hide_v in_o we_o and_o sometime_o be_v stir_v up_o in_o we_o by_o cause_n outward_a or_o inward_a and_o again_o do_v as_o it_o be_v sleep_v and_o shun_v our_o observation_n and_o seem_v not_o to_o be_v otherways_o distinguish_v by_o our_o mind_n but_o as_o thought_n and_o perception_n of_o the_o mind_n from_o the_o mind_n itself_o that_o be_v as_o the_o mode_n from_o the_o subject_a or_o as_o a_o bodily_a motion_n from_o the_o body_n whereof_o it_o be_v the_o motion_n for_o as_o be_v the_o relation_n of_o a_o bodily_a motion_n to_o a_o body_n so_o be_v the_o relation_n of_o a_o thought_n or_o perception_n of_o the_o mind_n to_o the_o mind_n in_o this_o nevertheless_o they_o differ_v that_o the_o mind_n can_v move_v itself_o and_o operat_fw-la in_o itself_o which_o a_o body_n can_v do_v but_o as_o a_o body_n can_v be_v move_v by_o another_o so_o also_o can_v the_o mind_n after_o its_o manner_n be_v move_v by_o another_o and_o that_o both_o by_o outward_a and_o inward_a cause_n but_o chief_o by_o god_n himself_o in_o who_o hand_n all_o soul_n and_o creature_n be_v but_o of_o these_o thing_n there_o be_v enough_o say_v at_o present_a and_o i_o hope_v i_o have_v not_o thus_o far_o impertinent_o philosophised_a to_o return_v again_o to_o the_o matter_n in_o question_n it_o be_v already_o prove_v that_o there_o be_v in_o a_o man_n a_o supernatural_a idea_n of_o god_n from_o whence_o it_o easy_o may_v be_v conclude_v there_o be_v other_o supernatural_a idea_n in_o man_n also_o to_o wit_n concern_v divine_a and_o supernatural_a thing_n yea_o as_o the_o saint_n experience_n do_v prove_v it_o neither_o do_v sound_a reason_n any_o way_n contradict_v it_o as_o there_o be_v then_o natural_a idea_n concern_v the_o thing_n of_o the_o natural_a world_n as_o for_o instance_n idea_n of_o light_n and_o colour_n idea_n of_o voice_n and_o sound_n idea_n of_o savour_v and_o and_o smell_a idea_n of_o taste_v and_o feel_v as_o of_o heat_n and_o cold_a of_o grief_n and_o joy_n it_o follow_v also_o that_o there_o be_v idea_n of_o supernatural_a thing_n concern_v the_o divine_a and_o supernatural_a thing_n of_o the_o divine_a and_o supernatural_a world_n as_o idea_n of_o those_o thing_n above_o mention_v in_o the_o spiritual_a world_n and_o as_o the_o natural_a idea_n be_v stir_v up_o in_o we_o by_o outward_a and_o natural_a body_n so_o those_o divine_a and_o supernatural_a idea_n be_v stir_v up_o in_o we_o by_o a_o certain_a principle_n which_o be_v a_o body_n in_o natural_n in_o relation_n to_o the_o spiritual_a world_n and_o therefore_o may_v be_v call_v a_o divine_a body_n not_o as_o if_o it_o be_v a_o part_n of_o god_n who_o be_v a_o most_o pure_a spirit_n but_o the_o organ_n or_o instrument_n of_o god_n by_o which_o he_o work_v in_o we_o and_o stir_v up_o in_o we_o these_o idea_n of_o divine_a thing_n this_o be_v that_o flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n by_o which_o the_o saint_n be_v nourish_v which_o be_v a_o mystery_n to_o all_o unregenerate_v and_o mere_a natural_a man_n never_o to_o be_v reach_v by_o they_o while_o they_o remain_v in_o that_o state_n now_o if_o there_o be_v such_o supernatural_a idea_n there_o be_v also_o sense_n or_o perceptive_a faculty_n by_o which_o those_o idea_n be_v perceive_v for_o those_o be_v two_o relative_n that_o suppose_v and_o infer_v one_o another_o but_o in_o wicked_a man_n those_o sense_n or_o faculty_n do_v as_o it_o be_v sleep_v as_o the_o visive_n faculty_n of_o a_o blind_a man_n but_o in_o the_o godly_a they_o be_v stir_v up_o now_o by_o these_o divine_a and_o spiritual_a sense_n which_o be_v distinct_a and_o distinguishable_a from_o all_o the_o natural_a faculty_n of_o the_o soul_n whether_o of_o imagination_n or_o natural_a reason_n spiritual_a mind_a man_n do_v behold_v the_o glory_n and_o beauty_n of_o god_n in_o respect_n whereof_o and_o for_o which_o all_o the_o glory_n of_o this_o world_n be_v despicable_a to_o they_o yea_o even_o as_o dross_n and_o dung_n and_o they_o also_o hear_v god_n inward_o speak_v in_o their_o soul_n word_n true_o divine_a and_o heavenly_a full_a of_o virtue_n and_o divine_a life_n and_o they_o savour_v and_o taste_v of_o divine_a thing_n and_o do_v as_o it_o be_v handle_v they_o with_o the_o hand_n of_o their_o soul_n and_o those_o heavenly_a enjoyment_n do_v as_o rea_o differ_v in_o their_o nature_n from_o all_o false_a similitude_n and_o fa●itious_a appearance_n of_o they_o which_o either_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n by_o its_o own_o strength_n can_v imitate_v or_o any_o evil_a spirit_n to_o deceive_v man_n can_v counterfeit_v as_o a_o true_a man_n differ_v from_o the_o dead_a image_n of_o a_o man_n or_o true_a bread_n honey_n wine_n or_o milk_n do_v from_o the_o mere_a picture_n of_o those_o thing_n and_o albeit_o either_o the_o imagination_n of_o man_n or_o subtlety_n of_o the_o devil_n may_v counterfeit_n false_a likeness_n of_o these_o enjoyment_n by_o which_o man_n may_v be_v deceive_v and_o no_o doubt_n many_o be_v deceive_v that_o do_v not_o hinder_v but_o that_o those_o divine_a enjoyment_n be_v clear_o perceive_v in_o such_o in_o who_o the_o divine_a and_o spiritual_a sense_n be_v true_o open_v and_o the_o true_a supernatural_a idea_n of_o those_o thing_n true_o raise_v up_o and_o if_o there_o be_v at_o any_o time_n a_o mistake_n the_o divine_a illumination_n be_v not_o the_o cause_n of_o that_o mistake_n but_o some_o evil_a disposition_n of_o the_o mind_n as_o happen_v in_o those_o thing_n relate_v to_o natural_a reason_n for_o there_o be_v many_o false_a appearance_n of_o reason_n which_o differ_v as_o much_o from_o true_a reason_n as_o those_o false_a and_o pretend_a revelation_n and_o diabolical_a inspiration_n from_o such_o as_o be_v true_o divine_a now_o how_o many_o man_n who_o will_v be_v esteem_v philosopher_n be_v miserable_o deceive_v by_o those_o false_a likeness_n of_o reason_n judge_v their_o false_a reason_n to_o be_v the_o true_a similitude_n of_o thing_n and_o solid_a ratiocinatione_n which_o nevertheless_o move_v no_o man_n of_o sound_a reason_n to_o reject_v sound_a and_o solid_a reason_n as_o doubtful_a and_o uncertain_a for_o even_o sound_a natural_a reason_n be_v a_o excellent_a gift_n of_o god_n and_o very_o useful_a to_o mankind_n when_o use_v in_o its_o proper_a place_n but_o let_v none_o think_v to_o comprehend_v by_o their_o natural_a reason_n thing_n that_o be_v of_o a_o divine_a and_o supernatural_a kind_n and_o as_o we_o use_v to_o do_v when_o any_o one_o be_v deceive_v by_o false_a appearance_n of_o reason_n we_o endeavour_v to_o reduce_v they_o to_o contemplate_v the_o first_o natural_a idea_n of_o natural_a thing_n and_o to_o meditate_v therein_o which_o be_v as_o a_o test_n or_o touchstone_n by_o which_o all_o the_o appearance_n and_o likeness_n of_o reason_n be_v to_o be_v examine_v if_o they_o contradict_v they_o to_o be_v reject_v so_o also_o when_o any_o one_o be_v deceive_v by_o his_o own_o imagination_n or_o the_o cunning_a of_o satan_n think_v any_o evil_a inspiration_n of_o the_o devil_n to_o be_v a_o true_a divine_a revelation_n he_o that_o be_v so_o deceive_v be_v to_o be_v reduce_v to_o the_o natural_a idea_n of_o thing_n if_o so_o be_v that_o pretend_a revelation_n do_v contradict_v they_o for_o no_o true_a divine_a revelation_n can_v contradict_v the_o true_a natural_a idea_n or_o to_o the_o supernatural_a idea_n of_o divine_a thing_n which_o be_v most_o simple_a clear_a and_o obvious_a to_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n if_o they_o will_v turn_v their_o mind_n to_o the_o divine_a seed_n in_o they_o or_o at_o least_o those_o idea_n be_v ready_o and_o easy_o stir_v up_o for_o as_o in_o natural_a idea_n so_o in_o supernatural_a some_o be_v more_o easy_o raise_v than_o other_o for_o there_o be_v a_o certain_a order_n both_o of_o natural_a and_o supernatural_a idea_n whereby_o they_o be_v gradual_o excite_v nor_o be_v there_o any_o mortal_a man_n in_o who_o mind_n at_o some_o time_n or_o other_o there_o be_v not_o stir_v up_o some_o idea_n that_o be_v true_o supernatural_a and_o divine_a and_o who_o have_v not_o feel_v in_o himself_o both_o the_o
