A76101	The arrovv of the Almighty shot out of the creatures bowe, against the uncalled ministers in England. Or, A messages sent to them to forewarn them of their determined destruction, before it fall upon them. Likewise here is shewed, from whence they had their calling into the ministery; and how all people have been decieved by them. Here is also a glass wherein all formalists may see their own deformity, and so seek after that which is the substance, wherein all their deformity shall be done away. Likewise here is opened the mystery of the Lords Supper, and the mystery in Baptism; and how there is a threefold Baptism, having relation to the three fold name of Father, Son, and Holy Ghost; with other truths very needful to be known. All of them being laid down in as brief a manner as possiblemay be, for the use and instruction of the Presbyterians, Independants, and Anabaptists, so called; or for the good of all others who have a minde to seek God in a right way; and in the conclusion, a word to the free-gracians.

but_o your_o foolish_a conceit_n raise_v in_o you_o by_o the_o custom_n of_o tradition_n by_o which_o you_o have_v make_v the_o command_n and_o power_n of_o god_n without_o effect_n and_o hereby_o you_o make_v a_o god_n of_o this_o ordinance_n or_o type_n institute_v and_o give_v that_o to_o it_o which_o of_o right_n do_v belong_v to_o himself_o and_o the_o incorporate_n any_o soul_n into_o christ_n viz._n to_o be_v make_v one_o in_o he_o and_o live_v in_o he_o be_v the_o work_n of_o god_n himself_o and_o not_o any_o act_n of_o the_o creature_n for_o herein_o god_n get_v honour_n to_o himself_o in_o work_v out_o the_o salvation_n of_o soul_n and_o his_o honour_n he_o will_v not_o give_v to_o another_o isa_n 42.8_o and_o it_o be_v his_o own_o arm_n that_o bring_v salvation_n and_o it_o be_v of_o his_o own_o will_n that_o he_o beget_v any_o to_o himself_o jam._n 1.18_o but_o i_o know_v you_o may_v object_v that_o god_n work_v his_o work_n by_o mean_n and_o answer_v you_o in_o ordinance_n to_o which_o i_o say_v it_o be_v true_a sometime_o he_o have_v do_v so_o but_o yet_o these_o be_v his_o own_o ordinance_n and_o not_o the_o tradition_n of_o man_n and_o yet_o his_o own_o ordinance_n he_o have_v not_o forsake_v as_o you_o may_v see_v by_o the_o brazen_a serpent_n 2_o king_n 18.4_o and_o by_o his_o tabernacle_n in_o shilo_n jer._n 7.12_o and_o by_o his_o temple_n in_o jerusalem_n etc._n etc._n jer._n 42.13_o and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o people_n make_v god_n of_o they_o and_o count_v they_o holy_a and_o so_o worship_v they_o giving_z that_o to_o the_o creature_n which_o do_v belong_v to_o the_o creator_n and_o so_o become_v blind_v in_o their_o understanding_n not_o know_v how_o to_o put_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o ordinance_n and_o the_o ordainer_n and_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o be_v because_o they_o become_v vain_a in_o their_o imagination_n not_o know_v the_o mind_n of_o the_o ordainer_n in_o the_o thing_n ordain_v and_o so_o their_o foolish_a heart_n thereby_o be_v darken_v they_o become_v to_o serve_v &_o worship_v the_o creature_n more_o than_o the_o creator_n and_o this_o be_v the_o very_a condition_n in_o this_o your_o act_n from_o whence_o you_o draw_v your_o foolish_a conclusion_n and_o though_o this_o ordinance_n of_o baptism_n institute_v by_o john_n and_o commend_v by_o christ_n be_v tolerable_a in_o itself_o stand_v as_o a_o type_n yet_o the_o soul_n want_v the_o thing_n signify_v the_o act_n of_o the_o type_n be_v of_o no_o efficacy_n to_o the_o soul_n for_o if_o the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n profit_v nothing_o io._n 6.63_o and_o that_o bodily_a exercise_n profit_v nothing_o 1_o tim._n 4.8_o what_o profit_n be_v it_o that_o you_o reap_v in_o this_o act_n of_o baptise_v even_o now_o but_o beguile_v yourselves_o of_o that_o which_o be_v the_o substance_n and_o safety_n of_o your_o soul_n and_o instead_o thereof_o you_o feed_v your_o fancy_n by_o conceit_n and_o so_o live_v upon_o husk_n and_o shadow_n and_o type_n and_o therefore_o the_o power_n of_o the_o substance_n be_v hide_v from_o you_o and_o so_o you_o live_v upon_o shadow_n and_o type_n you_o become_v to_o die_v in_o your_o sin_n likewise_o you_o question_v if_o not_o deny_v that_o a_o child_n can_v be_v save_v die_v before_o baptize_v and_o indeed_o so_o you_o may_v for_o none_o shall_v be_v save_v but_o those_o who_o be_v incorporate_v into_o the_o divine_a nature_n this_o be_v the_o life_n and_o bliss_n of_o all_o bless_a soul_n and_o in_o what_o you_o affirm_v in_o your_o first_o and_o second_o conclusion_n you_o may_v absolute_o deny_v that_o any_o can_v be_v save_v before_o baptize_v for_o this_o do_v undeniable_o follow_v and_o as_o your_o form_n and_o conclusion_n be_v but_o error_n so_o this_o three_o draw_v out_o of_o the_o two_o former_a be_v error_n also_o as_o here_o i_o prove_v plain_o first_o i_o hope_v you_o dare_v not_o deny_v but_o that_o circumcision_n be_v a_o ordinance_n of_o god_n and_o yet_o you_o dare_v not_o conclude_v that_o all_o that_o die_v before_o it_o be_v institute_v be_v damn_v neither_o all_o that_o under_o go_v the_o same_o ordinance_n be_v save_v and_o though_o this_o baptism_n be_v a_o ordinance_n yet_o dare_v you_o not_o conclude_v that_o any_o be_v not_o save_v before_o it_o be_v institute_v neither_o that_o all_o be_v save_v who_o be_v baptize_v then_o if_o god_n have_v a_o way_n to_o save_v before_o the_o institution_n of_o any_o ordinance_n then_o by_o the_o same_o way_n he_o can_v save_v without_o the_o ordinance_n and_o the_o truth_n be_v by_o the_o same_o way_n he_o save_v under_o ordinance_n and_o therefore_o the_o same_o way_n he_o save_v without_o ordinance_n the_o ordinance_n itself_o do_v not_o save_v and_o that_o way_n which_o god_n save_v all_o soul_n by_o and_o through_o be_v his_o own_o wisdom_n power_n and_o righteousness_n viz._n his_o christ_n in_o the_o divine_a nature_n by_o which_o he_o be_v in_o the_o father_n from_o eternity_n and_o by_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o same_o nature_n save_v soul_n before_o there_o be_v any_o ordinance_n and_o the_o same_o save_v under_o ordinance_n and_o the_o same_o save_v without_o ordinance_n and_o it_o be_v the_o free-gift_n or_o good_a will_n or_o grace_n of_o god_n that_o save_v whosoever_o be_v save_v eph._n 2.8_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o the_o administer_a of_o any_o ordinance_n or_o live_v under_o any_o ordinance_n that_o save_v and_o therefore_o i_o conclude_v true_o and_o upon_o true_a ground_n that_o if_o child_n die_v or_o any_o other_o though_o not_o baptize_v may_v be_v save_v as_o well_o as_o those_o who_o be_v baptize_v and_o all_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o divine_a nature_n who_o be_v not_o tie_v to_o or_o give_v to_o any_o soul_n by_o any_o virtue_n that_o be_v in_o any_o ordinance_n whatsoever_o but_o do_v gather_v and_o draw_v to_o itself_o whosoever_o and_o at_o what_o time_n soever_o itself_o please_v and_o therefore_o i_o will_v have_v you_o to_o take_v heed_n and_o beware_v of_o the_o false_a doctrine_n of_o your_o lie_a priest_n who_o have_v teach_v you_o these_o thing_n that_o thereby_o you_o may_v esteem_v high_o of_o they_o and_o have_v they_o in_o admiration_n for_o their_o act_n and_o administer_a of_o this_o ordinance_n to_o you_o and_o make_v you_o believe_v you_o be_v more_o in_o favour_n and_o love_n of_o god_n then_o if_o you_o want_v this_o their_o poor_a act_n likewise_o from_o these_o three_o former_a conclusion_n this_o four_o do_v successive_o follow_v viz._n that_o one_o live_v and_o yet_o unbaptise_v be_v not_o or_o can_v be_v incorporate_v into_o christ_n and_o as_o all_o the_o former_a be_v but_o error_n so_o be_v this_o also_o and_o clear_a against_o the_o work_n and_o way_n of_o god_n as_o he_o have_v wrought_v who_o work_n be_v make_v manifest_a by_o scripture_n to_o the_o contrary_a for_o as_o be_v before_o prove_v it_o be_v no_o work_n of_o any_o creature_n nor_o the_o virtue_n of_o any_o ordinance_n that_o do_v incorporate_a into_o christ_n but_o that_o which_o do_v incorporate_a into_o christ_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n and_o that_o be_v faith_n eph._n 2.8_o and_o faith_n may_v be_v give_v of_o god_n without_o the_o administration_n of_o a_o ordinance_n if_o you_o deny_v this_o than_o you_o deny_v scripture_n for_o faith_n be_v before_o ordinance_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o abraham_n before_o circumcision_n and_o faith_n be_v before_o the_o ordinance_n of_o baptism_n and_o in_o the_o primitive_a time_n this_o ordinance_n be_v not_o to_o be_v administer_v to_o any_o but_o that_o be_v believer_n though_o foolish_o you_o do_v administer_v the_o same_o to_o your_o child_n have_v neither_o command_n nor_o example_n for_o what_o you_o do_v but_o only_o a_o priest_n precept_n by_o which_o you_o be_v guide_v therefore_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o a_o soul_n may_v be_v incorporate_v into_o christ_n before_o and_o without_o baptism_n so_o all_o your_o conclusion_n be_v but_o false_a and_o in_o observe_v of_o this_o ordinance_n of_o baptism_n you_o know_v not_o what_o you_o do_v nor_o what_o you_o observe_v for_o to_o this_o very_a day_n you_o and_o your_o teacher_n be_v ignorant_a of_o what_o be_v the_o mind_n of_o john_n when_o he_o institute_v it_o and_o likewise_o of_o the_o mind_n of_o christ_n in_o command_v that_o it_o shall_v be_v observe_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o you_o make_v a_o god_n of_o baptism_n as_o i_o have_v prove_v in_o speak_v of_o the_o fourfold_a conclusion_n and_o this_o you_o have_v place_v in_o your_o religion_n as_o a_o principle_n or_o as_o a_o mark_n whereby_o you_o may_v be_v know_v to_o be_v of_o the_o household_n of_o god_n and_o as_o a_o sign_n of_o those_o who_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o promise_n
