God in Christ in grace and glory This makes these Tabernacles so amiable his goodness in these gardens is so desireable Psa. 87.2 3. Isa. 33.17 Psa 27.4 Act. 2.28 Ps. 84.1 2 7 10. 63.1 2. 2 Cor. 3.18 6.16 5. Have ye a clear discovery of your fellowship with the Father and his Son Then ye may from the same principle and by the same spirit have fellowship with the Saints 1 John 1.7 but be sure ye begin in Christ first or else the foundation is not laid else ye will fall out and down in the dust 1 John 2.19 ye cannot continue else and then will your ending be worse then your beginning 6. What is your end is it that as the chosen ones and those bought by Christs blood you may set forth the praises of him that called you out of darkness into light 1 Pet. 2.9 2 Thes. 1.11 12. and is it nothing else but in subordination to this why then these are good grounds But many there be that have base by sinister ends for which they creep into this Church-way who are or will be ere long a scandal to the Gospel and do bring a scorn upon the truth O! how often hath it been said in Dublin and that by such whose sincerity is without exception with bleeding hearts Look yee there is one that could not tell how to live but hath lost his trade and for some place is got in to be a member of such a Church and he is now preferred and made a Gentleman c. Nay some have been so bold as to boast of it among themselves as if nothing else byassed them into these ways but politick ends O sad such as these do bring the ways of holiness into contempt they grieve many that are in and keep out many that are not in they raise fractions within factions without they open the wide mouthes of the enemies to blaspheme and they side for lucres sake or lusts sake with the great rather then with the good Ah! alas and indeed though upon the naked knees of our souls we cannot be thankful enough for the liberty the truth hath and that holiness and Religion is so much advanced Yet I do verily believe never more Hypocrites then now who because they know none but honest men must be preferred into places or offices do dissemble with God and men get into Church-fellowships the name of a Church-member making them of note and exercise their gifts and get up into Pulpits which God forbid but they should orderly and change their words ways and works but not their hearts Gen. 4.3 Hosea 7.16 These are lights before men but darkness before God Matth. 6.2 5 16. Isa. 58.2 and though these do not the evil which they love in their hearts if they durst do it or could not be seen by men yet they will do the good which they love not to be seen by men Numb 14.2 4.40 O these these are the scandal of this age this Land this Reformation and of the Church of Christ whererefo beware ye be not byassed by such sinister carnal fleshly ends for the Hypocrites hope will come to nothing Job 8.13 Their flower will fade and their joy is but for a moment Job 20.5 When Religion is much in fashion it is much a fancy and then most men will swim with the stream Thus have I roughly offered a few directions and have lent my hand by a few helps to such as do seek the way to Sion but least they leap before they look they will do well to weigh them in the ballance of the sanctuary and because many Church-fellowships in my judgement given me by the Word and Spirit are in a doubtful state at present and which I think must be purged with the Refiners fire and Fullers soap I do therefore beseech you seriously to seek such a society as hath 1. The sweetest harmony and most love and to all alike 2. Which hath Christian liberty and no one is robbed by the Rulers of his or her right 3. Where they live more in the Spirit then on the Forms 4. Where holiness is highest and appears in most power 5. Where every Saint may walk according to his light so he be holy humble c. though he differ in some things from others 6. Where you see most self-denial humility of minde and ready serving one another 7. Where you see most order and Gospel-decency 8. Where appears most sympathy and bowels of love and pity 9. VVhere their unity consists not in the unity of the fo●m but in the unity of the Spirit 10. VVhere you finde most readiness to meet together to instruct counsel comfort and build up one another in the most holy Faith and where there is not honor given or taken Joh. 5.44 after the manner of men or a having mens persons in admiration Many such things I might offer now but I shall take more liberty hereafter onely these things in brief I lay before you till the next Books And this I do the rather being induced thereunto by abundance of experience afforded me through Gods goodness from variety of observations which I have taken of many gathered Churches in England and Ireland as they now stand The Lord open your eyes to see and your ears to hear and lead you by his light and Spirit of truth into his holy tabernacles Psal. 43.3 Thus far for the first Part of this Platform wherein you have the totum essentiale of a true Church of Christ from The Efficient Causes The Material Causes The Formal Causes The Objective Causes The Instrumental Causes The And Final Causes All this is to shew what is requisit before embodying but the next part relates to what is to be done in and the last to what is to be done after embodying together The End of the First Book 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Challah The Heavenly Nymph OR THE BRIDE Rising up to Perfection and preparing for the coming of her Bridegroom Being the Second Book of Church-Discipline Wherein appears the BRIDES beauty in her Members and Complexions her submission and obedience to Christ her Modesty and her Chastity her Humility and her Loves with other Graces and Ornaments that appertain to her AS ALSO The BRIDEGROOMS great love to her more then to all other the dwellings of Jacob Psal. 87.2 his care of her his special Presence and abode with her his Royal maintenance to her and provisions for her according to his owne fulnesse and the riches of his Grace that filleth all in all Eph. 1.23 Or you have in this Book a sight of the Moon shining though under Clouds and thick darknesse as she receives her light and life from the Sun in the former Book Or Christ her Head coming in glory being big-bellied with the precious Promises and Prophesies and Types never before so opened and which are travelling to be delivered in these latter dayes

It appears then by the bright beams of our Sun use 1 which shines in the Scripture-Elements in this Hemisphere of his Church here below That Parishes in this point are far from true Churches They fall short of the final cause not considering what conduces most to Gods glory but what is most for their advantage and gain this is the godliness of most Parochially opinionated In your Parishes prophane ones all sorts of sinners swearers drunkards whoremasters c. are all suffered as of their Churches which ought not to keep in or if they creep in ought to be cast out of Christs-Church wherein God is most to be glorified I say in such a Church as consists of Saints separated as before and that will not willingly or knowingly admit of or keep in carnal and openly sinful men c. Or thus The Members of Christs Church are the fittest to set forth the praises of God but the Members of that Church which consists of Saints separated and qualified as before are the fittest to set forth his praises Ergo c. Parishes are excommunicated for such a rabble-rout as have and yet do rob God of his due honor and praise and glory But Use 2. Better is the End of a thing then the beginning Eccl. use 2 7.8 Wherefore come forth ye that fear the Lord from those Dungeons of darkness those Babylons of unbelievers and lewd livers and Synagogues of Satan what is the fruit of those things whereof we are now ashamed And dearest hearts whom I bear in my bosom before my Father are any of you fond of Zion see that your End be good and then that the means be conducing and answerable thereunto The End though first and principal in your intention yet is the last and ultimate in the execution yea this End viz. the glory and praise of God is to be the Alpha and Omega the first and last of all or else our best will be but frustra agere bad in our building Wherefore Friend consider what is it we promise or propose to our selves sayes our Saviour Christ Luke 14.28 30 c. Which of you intending to build a Tower sits not down first to count the cost If he can finish it Least he be mocked and it be said he began to build but could not finish it This is but ordinary wisdom to weigh the End first and whither you can accomplish it or not or are fit to go through stitch with it or not or else what a scandal will you bring to the Gospel and dishonor to him whose name you profess Consider the End of your conversation Heb. 13.7 that is Look wishfully upon it 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 consider what is the end of your ways walking c. is all for Gods honor and glory 2. This must be the principal End of your entring into the Church of Christ to honor him with the same honor wherewith the Son honored the Father and you shall receive the end of your faith viz. salvation 1 Pet. 1.9 To conclude Sing praises sing praises like the Nightingale who spends whole nights in her kinde to sing forth the praises of God as if the day were too short every Man must be a Preacher every Creature a Text every Occasion a Doctrine every Blessing a Reason every Providence a Proof every Thanksgiving an Use Men and Angels the Auditors and the whole Sermon is Gods honor and glory And yet how many like unwise Archers shoot and know not at what mark And others vile wretches praise with their mouths but they are like Samsons honey out of the mouth of a Beast or like the Quarester that sung Gloria Patri in the Church and Carmina B●ccho in the Tavern others there be that would blazon our Christs Arms Herald like but it must be their own device But the best flower in these Gardens enclosed to make God a Garland with is the Coronation flower to lay all our crown and glory at his feet When Thales had learnt Mandrita the Philosopher an admirable invention of the motion of the Heavens Oh Sir sayes Mandrita how shall I requite you No way sayes Thales Milesius but by acknowledging you learnt it of me So the Lord requires of us to give him the glory of all we learn in his Churches by his Spirit of the motions of the Heavens CHAP.

A society of Believers sanctified in Christ Jesus 2. Separate from the world false-ways and worships united together into one Body Independent or having a plenary power within its self without the least subordination to any but Christ 3. having the special presence of God in the midst of her 4. and being gathered and ordered by Christs rule alone 5. all her Members freely

we differ from them in their cutting the bread and so in distributing it which destroyes the nature of an ordinance of breaking bread Acts 2.42 46. Acts 20.7 as it is properly called in Scripture seeing they who will have some of their humane inventions in it and will be medling though not mending doe slice or cut it ready to be given about but this ordinance of mans make and mixture I confesse the poore people have had and been gull'd with for many a year whilest they are kept and continued in ignorance as to the Ordinance of Christ to the Ordinance of breaking bread and scoffe at it not knowing what it is Thus the poore people as long as they are without are caged up under Antichristian darknesse and discipline 4. The Presbyterians and Papists agree much about their Doctrine of works which I shall instance in some particulars As first of the necessity of good workes The Papists say that good workes are necessary to Salvation not onely necessitate praesentiae but efficientiae as efficient causes together with faith of our salvation Bellarm lib 6. de justificat cap 7. The Presbyterians I mean the rigid amongst them have affirmed and yet doe the like necessity of good workes to qualifie us and prepare us for Christ viz repentance tears confession of sins c. But we dissent from both and say with Mr. Rogers in his Right way to be saved pag 54. there be no works of ours which prepare us for Christ and such as look for something to ground on in themselves mistake grossely and are lost Like one that does not set the young tree but lets it lye on the ground till he sees what fruits t will bear as we said before O no! but let it first be rooted and grounded and then you shall see what fruits so must you be grounded in Christ and then bring forth fruits and workes from Christ then your repentance is in Christ Acts 5.31 32. your faith in Christ Col 2.20 which is the work of God John 6. Fac Christi opera c. sayes Bernard in Paschal Serm 2. Doe Christ's workes good workes we grant but not as our owne but as Christs for as Augustine on John 15.5 sayes sive parum sive mullum sine illo fieri non potest in Tract 82. nothing little or much can be done without Christ for Phil 2.13 4.13 he worketh in you both to will and to doe Est deus in nobis agitante calescimus illo and I can doe all things through Christ that strengtheneth me sayes the Apostle and in this sense is that negative assertion of Dr. Twisse's quod homo nihil boni facit nisi deus in illo efficiat ut faciat Therefore we must not be puzzled and perplexed about works de nostro of our owne to fit us for Christ for whilest men think they must doe something themselves or else they cannot be justified and doe nothing for it or in it but onely believe and whilest they think God cannot but approve of their workes and accept of their services they run a great hazare with the Papists 1 Sam. 16.7 Psal. 62 9. and are with perplexible anxiety of spirit spying out for good works of their own make whilest the Apostle sayes Ephes 2.10 we are all his workmanship in Christ Jesus and tels us plainly our new works arise from this new creation for that no flesh might boast in his sight seeing Christ is not ours therefore salvation is not ours by any act of ours but of God in us and of grace teaching us Tim. 2.12 13. within hence is vocation 2 Tim. 1 ●9 Sanctification 2 Thes. 2.13 faith love repentance Rom. 2.4 every good woorke Ezek. 36.27 and everlasting life Rom. 6.23 all given by grace Therefore no good works of ours qualifie us for any of these thus sayes Mr. Perkins upon Galat. pag. 159. the Gospel offers and gives life freely without any condition of workes and requires nothing but receiving Object Yes on condition of faith Answ. Faith saith he is mentioned in the manner of a condition but it is of free grace and the meer gift of God as well as life eternall So that Faith brings forth workes but not workes faith for good workes sayes one followes Christ in us by faith as the fruits of the tree follow the growing and grounding of it a woman first is marryed then conceives then brings forth or else the children are illegitimate and so are those works illegitimate which flow not from the conjunction and conception of Christ in the heart but if they be before wee may blush at the sight of them and be ashamed of them and cannot boast of any credit or comfort of them Opera sunt secundum principium a quo sunt and till Christ be in us we say our best works are but dead workes two wayes 1. effectivè as sin 2. privativè without grace or the Spirit of Gods working But furthermore in the formal cause of justification the Papists affirm an inherent righteousnesse in us to make compleat the formality of justification Trident. concil sess 6. Can. 11. Rhemist Rom. 2. Sect. 4. Bel. lib. 2. de justif cap. 3. many Clergy men unguibus dentibus doe cry up an inherent righteousnesse too to make up compleat justification which we deny and abhor allowing the alone righteousnesse of Christ to justifie us before God and fully able to doe it without any addition of ours or any inherent qualification as to that See Rom. 8.2 Rom. 4.56 Rom. 5.24 2 Cor. 5 21· Phil. 3.9 for Christ's righteousnesse alone hath fulfilled the Law which is ours by imputation for our justification Rom. 8.4 being absolutely justified by that Christ's righteousnesse alone as our good workes doe not justifie us any thing so our evill workes doe not unjustifie us and so it is the weakest Saint is as absolutely righteous in the sight of God and as fully justified in the righteousnesse of another as the strongest And as most of the eminent Presbyterians are now come in to be one with us in this point so some of the Popish speciall Champions upon a parley have laid down their arms and doe join issue with us herein as Pighius de fide justifi● Cont 2. p. 45. who grants that we have no other righteousnesse to rest upon then that which Christus imputat nobis sine operibus nostris Christ imputes to us without works so Vatablus in Psalm 18.23 and the Author of Antidid●g Coloniens as Bell. confesses c. besides aboundance of famous writers which prove it at large Now lest I should be misconstrued by Criticks know that we affirm an inherent righteousnesse wrought by the Spirit in all such as are justified by faith in Christ but we say that it is rather a sanctification or the fruit and effect of justification then any wayes to be accounted of

properties of the Precious stones and certainly Zion will be a beautifull scituation and the joy of the whole Earth And who will not in those dayes desire to have a right in them and highly prize them that are members of the Churches which make up this great and holy City the Jerusalem as Precious stones though now they are contemned and cursed by many and thought fit for the most furious and spurious foote of disdaine to trample upon Oh alas be they poore to look upon plaine simple in appearance many of them yet their worth is not known to men as yet but dogs do rent them and swine would trample them into the mire But then when the seven Vials are poured out they shall be no more reviled or vilipended there shall be no more death or sorrow or trouble or paine upon the Churches but they of a little one shall become a thousand and as Isay 60.5.6 and Isay 49.18.19 their destroyers and those that made them wast must be gone packing v. 7. and then saith the Lord lift up your eyes round about and behold all these gather themselves together and come to thee to be joyn'd and he sayes they shall be ornaments to the Church and all her waste desolate places shall be re-edified and yet too little to hold such a company of Zion-Citizens and Inhabitants insomuch as the Church shall say the place is too strait give me roome make way yee Kings Nobles Nations I must have more and more roome every year till this now very little stone grow greater and greater till it fill the whole earth looke for this hastily and be assured the Jewes will be admirable ornaments and excellent Church matter by 1666. and many before but of all the Tribes the Church must have matter as appears by the twelve stones which had the names of the twelve Tribes engraven though some apply them particularly one by one to the twelve Apostles Oh! that in the mean time every Church and every member would make one or other of these Precious stones and let them but study by the properties and excellencies of ev'ry stone how far the following Ages will exceed ours and Saints exceed us and Churches exceed ours who shall be more and more to be accounted of for their inward excellencies spirituall and divine vertues with varieties of them then they shall be for their outward appearances or professions or formes c. But thus for the matter fore-told which I chose to demonstrate from the signification of these Precious stones that I might not labour in vaine Thirdly The Prophecyes and Promises to be made good in the latter dayes are very full for the forme of the Church which we have sufficiently proved in many Chapters before and which appears Ezek. 37.19.21.22 Zeph. 3.9 so in Hosea 1.13 Isaiah 35.8.9 2 Cor. 6.17.18 and in a word all Churches shall admit her m●mbers one way therefore all the Gates through which men enter into this City are Pearles all the Gates of one Pearle i. e. Christ the Pearle of price in and by whom alone shall be entrance into all Churches and Pallaces of Sion Rev. 21.21 and no other way Act. 4.12 but something to this afterwards only this know that his fanne is in his hand now Mat. 3.12 to make separation betweene Wheat and Chaffe Saints and Hypocrites to the purpose ere long Fourthly the finall cause of the Church is also promised in the latter dayes at large what this finall cause is we have showne in 1 lib. which some make two-fold so Zanch. lib. 4. cap. 10. S. 39. 1. the glory of Christ to be thereby known as Jo. 17.10 I am glorified in them saith Christ now this is foretold Mat. 16.26 Act. 3.13 with 21. Mat. 24.30 Rev. 5.12 thou art worthy of all glory 2. the latitude of Gods love even to East West North and South as before Jer. 31.3 to gather the Elect from all corners of the Earth Mat. 24.31 Oh how this doth commend his love Rev. 5.8 Ezek. 16.6 Hosea 14.4 Rev. 1.5 Jer. 31.3 But in a word the general end promised and prophesied in the latter days is to set forth his glory and praise as Ephes. 2.21 so is it in Isay 65.17 as if he should say saies Brightman I will make to me a new people in whose Assemblies I will be praised and glorified so is it in Ier. 31.7 Rev. 21.11 Isay 66.18 to Isay 49.3 in whom in whose Churches of Israel I will be glorified Isay 43. 21. so 1 Pet. 1.7 1 Pet. 2.9 Rev. 15.2.3 this is especially a worke that will lye upon the latter dayes let the Churches look after it But the finall cause with reference to us is that God may dwell with us 2 cor 6.16 Rev. 21.3 let the Churches make these their end Fifthly the Vnity and Order of the Churches is prophesied and promised two to be excellent and spirituall in the latter dayes Jer. 24.7 Isay 54.13 Isay 56.6.7.8 Isay 60.21 worshipping him in spirit and in truth Jo. 4.23.24.25 Eph. 2.19.22 and 1 Pet. 2.5 then shall there be gold for brasse silver for iron brasse for wood c. Isay 60.17 spirit for forme truth for tradition life for letter power for appearance both in unity and order 1 cor 13.9 and that which is more perfect shall do away that which is more imperfect but I have spoke to this also at large before I shall conclude with Christs prayer John 17.21.22 which as appears in v. 20. does include us in these dayes as much concerned that the Saints and Churches may all be one as the Father is in Christ and Christ in the Father that is spiritually and in power mystery and in truth And for that end sayes Christ the glory which thou hast given me I have given them those Saints Churches that I pray for what glory is that see v. 5. i. e. with thine own selfe not with the worlds earthly pomp jollities or terrene enjoyments but with thine owne presence and divine being this glory saith Christ that thou hast given me I have given them that is of this divine phesence power grace and being communicated to them by the holy spirit why so that they may be one there is unity and order meant spiritually as we are one one with us one one with another by one and the same spirit this will be especially in these latter dayes because Sixthly the Promises and Prophesies are very pregnant and big-belly'd for the breaking out of his spirit upon his Saints and Churches in these latter dayes Ioel 2. so Isay 59.20 the Redeemer shall come to Zion and then v. 21. my spirit shall be upon thee and my words which I put in thy mouth shall never depart out of thy mouth nor out of the mouth of thy seed nor of thy seeds seed saith the Lord from henceforth and for ever
