A91675	Adam unvailed, and seen with open face or, Israel's right way from Egypt to Canaan, lately discovered. Wherein his estate is laid down, opened and compared with ours, under severall dispensations; in opposition to what ever hath been formerly declared by most men: in which many excellent truths appear, to the great comfort and consolation of all those that are made capable of it.

serpent_n than_o the_o voice_n of_o god_n bifield_n say_v there_o be_v three_o thing_n occasion_v the_o fall_n of_o our_o first_o parent_n the_o first_o rebellion_n the_o second_o unthankfulness_n

for_o holiness_n in_o the_o new_a creation_n of_o the_o new_a man_n according_a to_o that_o in_o coloss_n 3._o 10._o therefore_o they_o attribute_v this_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n to_o adam_n

no_o more_o than_o a_o child_n have_v power_n to_o stay_v and_o never_o grow_v to_o be_v a_o man_n and_o contrary_o the_o same_o reason_n prove_v that_o they_o be_v mere_o blind_a ignorant_a and_o

in_o a_o low_a and_o carnal_a condition_n and_o do_v by_o eat_v the_o forbid_a fruit_n attain_v to_o a_o high_a but_o contrary_o he_o fall_v into_o a_o low_a our_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o

this_o can_v be_v no_o reason_n against_o i_o nor_o for_o you_o for_o you_o yourselves_o do_v not_o hold_v that_o we_o be_v by_o regeneration_n or_o the_o second_o birth_n bring_v up_o to_o that_o

to_o be_v understand_v thus_o as_o the_o lively_a creature_n be_v like_o the_o picture_n or_o representation_n so_o be_v regenerate_v person_n like_o adam_n in_o innocency_n for_o as_o he_o have_v

peace_n delight_n and_o enjoyment_n that_o be_v attain_v unto_o after_o the_o second_o birth_n for_o as_o he_o himself_o be_v carnal_a be_v yet_o a_o figure_n of_o a_o heavenly_a and_o spiritual_a man_n so_o also_o his_o enjoyment_n and_o peace_n be_v a_o figure_n of_o a_o spituall_a peace_n and_o enjoyment_n so_o we_o be_v not_o to_o understand_v by_o regeneration_n that_o we_o be_v to_o be_v

more_o plain_o in_o the_o margin_n thus_o you_o be_v to_o understand_v regeneration_n to_o be_v but_o only_o a_o bring_n up_o to_o a_o spiritual_a peace_n and_o enjoyment_n type_v out_o by_o a_o

but_o the_o manner_n or_o circumstance_n as_o you_o may_v see_v a_o full_a answer_n to_o this_o objection_n in_o pag._n 43_o 44_o 45_o 46._o i_o have_v brief_o prove_v that_o which_o i_o undertake_v namely_o that_o the_o first_o adam_n be_v make_v of_o the_o earth_n earthly_a and_o be_v blind_a without_o wisdom_n knowledge_n righteousness_n light_n or_o the_o light_n before_o his_o eat_v the_o

with_o who_o i_o have_v to_o deal_v and_o in_o prove_v of_o this_o i_o have_v answer_v many_o objection_n now_o it_o will_v be_v necessary_a to_o apply_v this_o truth_n to_o man_n several_a condition_n which_o indeed_o be_v god_n end_n in_o hold_v forth_o adam_n in_o these_o various_a condition_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o only_o see_v he_o but_o see_v ourselves_o and_o in_o compare_v ourselves_o with_o adam_n in_o his_o various_a condition_n and_o adam_n with_o we_o we_o may_v see_v our_o condition_n like_o he_o and_o herein_o i_o shall_v answer_v other_o objection_n and_o further_o clear_v what_o be_v already_o deliver_v but_o before_o i_o come_v to_o apply_v this_o truth_n you_o must_v know_v that_o the_o man_n adam_n do_v represent_v two_o thing_n 1._o he_o do_v represent_v another_o adam_n which_o be_v all_o the_o fleshly_a and_o carnal_a act_n of_o man_n in_o all_o the_o world_n these_o fleshly_a and_o carnal_a act_n of_o man_n be_v adam_n as_o true_o as_o ever_o he_o that_o be_v look_v upon_o to_o be_v our_o first_o parent_n be_v adam_n and_o god_n indeed_o 20._o adam_n our_o first_o parent_n hold_v forth_o christ_n in_o the_o flesh_n adam_n our_o

to_o hold_v out_o this_o late_a adam_n by_o he_o that_o be_v not_o so_o true_o adam_n as_o this_o for_o this_o late_a adam_n be_v he_o that_o we_o shall_v still_o look_v to_o and_o whereas_o i_o say_v that_o adam_n hold_v forth_o two_o thing_n i_o do_v not_o mean_v only_a adam_n our_o first_o parent_n but_o this_o late_a adam_n our_o carnality_n hold_v forth_o the_o last_o of_o the_o two_o thing_n which_o i_o speak_v of_o which_o be_v jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o saint_n the_o opposition_n be_v not_o between_o the_o two_o adam_n i_o mean_v adam_n our_o first_o parent_n and_o christ_n who_o die_v at_o jerusalem_n no_o further_o than_o they_o be_v two_o shadow_n but_o the_o opposition_n lie_v between_o the_o two_o substance_n namely_o adam_n our_o carnality_n and_o that_o spirit_n of_o life_n in_o christ_n live_v and_o act_v in_o the_o saint_n which_o be_v the_o second_o adam_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v crucify_v the_o old_a man_n with_o the_o affection_n and_o lust_n thereof_o and_o put_v on_o the_o new_a man_n which_o after_o god_n be_v create_v in_o righteousness_n and_o true_a holiness_n the_o same_o apostle_n say_v rom._n 6._o 6._o know_v this_o that_o your_o old_a

the_o substance_n in_o they_o answerable_a to_o the_o sign_n if_o this_o be_v so_o as_o it_o do_v appear_v that_o every_o carnal_a man_n and_o woman_n in_o their_o carnal_a fleshly_a and_o self_n act_n be_v the_o first_o adam_n 10._o col._n 3._o 9_o 10._o in_o the_o substance_n then_o let_v we_o see_v whether_o the_o same_o thing_n do_v not_o befall_v we_o in_o the_o substance_n as_o befall_v

and_o in_o this_o i_o shall_v lay_v down_o adam_n estate_n as_o he_o be_v create_v in_o and_o his_o degree_n in_o rise_v through_o several_a dispensation_n and_o providence_n of_o god_n and_o so_o compare_v our_o estate_n and_o several_a degree_n and_o rise_n with_o his_o and_o then_o we_o shall_v see_v whether_o he_o do_v not_o true_o hold_v forth_o we_o and_o whether_o we_o be_v not_o the_o true_a substance_n of_o he_o the_o shadow_n first_o adam_n be_v create_v without_o the_o rise_n the_o first_o degree_n of_o adam_n rise_n garden_n of_o eden_n which_o garden_n hold_v forth_o a_o

not_o capable_a of_o pleasure_n be_v create_v in_o the_o degree_n or_o stature_n of_o a_o child_n for_o he_o be_v not_o actual_o make_v by_o god_n as_o some_o vain_o and_o carnal_o suppose_v but_o he_o grow_v out_o of_o some_o thing_n by_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n and_o so_o be_v keep_v and_o provide_v for_o in_o a_o miraculous_a way_n by_o god_n great_a providence_n as_o some_o man_n have_v be_v preserve_v by_o eagle_n and_o bear_n and_o the_o like_a as_o be_v record_v in_o history_n divers_a reason_n may_v be_v give_v for_o this_o but_o i_o do_v not_o desire_v to_o enlarge_v myself_o in_o it_o but_o take_v this_o one_o reason_n adam_n must_v needs_o be_v create_v in_o the_o degree_n or_o stature_n of_o a_o child_n because_o he_o live_v to_o the_o same_o age_n as_o his_o

in_o all_o probability_n he_o can_v not_o have_v live_v to_o the_o age_n of_o the_o rest_n of_o his_o generation_n for_o there_o be_v not_o above_o one_o in_o all_o his_o generation_n that_o do_v outlive_v he_o which_o in_o all_o probability_n they_o will_v have_v do_v if_o he_o have_v be_v create_v in_o the_o degree_n of_o a_o man_n this_o i_o speak_v from_o myself_o and_o not_o from_o the_o lord_n but_o there_o be_v much_o reason_n in_o it_o therefore_o you_o be_v not_o in_o my_o judgement_n to_o think_v that_o god_n create_v he_o actual_o with_o hand_n notwithstanding_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n form_v man_n with_o the_o dust_n of_o the_o earth_n david_n say_v the_o like_a of_o himself_o thy_o hand_n make_v and_o fashion_v i_o notwithstanding_o he_o come_v by_o generation_n god_n
