A40523 The fall of a great visible idol by the coming of the invisible povver, and substance In this day and time of the lambs war which is come. Wherein Christ the true light is exalted at the right hand of God, who dwells and walkes in his people which are his temple. Which doth bring down the boasting baptists that hath highly exalted themselves upon the high and dark mountains of their own imaginations, as may be known by their own principles which are herein answered with something to the simple hearted that are among them, concerning water baptism and breaking of outward bread, which these baptists hath so much idolized in the night. From a true friend unto all that loves truth in the inward parts, in true love and pitty unto the lost sheep, that they may be of the house of Israel. Joseph Fuce. Fuce, Joseph. 1659 (1659) Wing F2257A; ESTC R221567 32,174 39

is come in the flesh and they receive the Spirit of Antichrist and become one with that and so resist the true light the true comforter the man of sorrows that puts an end to sin and John in the Spirit or the Spirit in John said in the Revelation Behold I stand at the door and knock if any man hear my voice and open the door I will come in to him and will sup with him and he with me Rev. 3. 20. he that hath an ear let him hear what the Spirit saith The Baptist denied That Christ was that crucified oftener then once Answ Here you may see the Baptists chief principles are to deny the true Christ the Son of God who proceeded from the Father to seek and to save that which was lost but the Baptists renders evil against him that came for good unto all men even to the lost to seek and to save that which was lost and he giveth to every man that which is good this is the true light which lighteth every man that cometh into the world and this is he the Baptists deny and whom the Jews were so much against and did often deny him saying Crucifie him crucifie him and release unto us Barrabas and he was crucified without the Gates at Jerusalem at the place which is called Calvary Luk. 23. 33. there was one time spoke of where Christ was crucified without the Gates and after that John said he was crucified in the streets of the great City which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt Rev. 11. 8. that was another time and place spoken of and the Apostle Paul who had been a persecutor and was converted after Christs suffering without the Gate at Jerusalem and after the Church was gathered and grown up so as to taste of the good Word of God and the power of the World to come then he writes to the Hebrews concerning some that crucified to themselves the Son of God afresh and put him to an open shame Heb. 6. 6. the Son of God was the true Christ which was crucified by the Jews without the Gates at Calvary and in spiritual Sodom and Egypt and also by such as departed from the Faith for they crucified to themselves the Son of God afresh take notice of that That you may see plainly how the Baptists deny the true Christ the Son of God the Lamb slain from the ●oundation of the world The Baptists affirmed That the Comforter spoken of in that 14th of John to come again to the Disciples was not Christ Answ Christ in that 14th of John said the Father should give them another Comforter but he did not say it was not Christ that should come to them which was then with them but on the contrary said he dwelleth with you and shall be in you vers the 17th and so he was to be known after another manner not after the flesh without them for he was manifested unto them in that form of flesh and so became of no reputation and passed thorow outward things and suffered the contradictions of sinners in the time of doing his Fathers Will for which he was sent in that form then when all was fulfilled both outward Baptism with water and outward Circumcision with hands then he said all is finished and gave up the Ghost and went to the Father from whence he proceeded and then was there no necessity of those outward things nor Command to do them from God as before because they were fulfilled yet for a time they were a little used by them that came unto all in those things that they might win some out of all those things which was to decrease up to Christ that was to increase and prevail mightily in those with whom he dwelt until he went to the Father and after he was risen he appeared unto his Disciples in another form and after that he appeared in them they did not tell people of his being among any people without them as he was known but said know you not your own selves how that Jesus Christ is in you except you be Reprobates but these Baptists they deny his so coming again and saith it was not Christ although Christ said so plainly in John 14. ● if I go prepare a place for you I will come again and receive you unto my self and in vers the 18th Christ said unto them again I will not leave you comfortless I will come to you but the Baptists said it was not he and so would make Christ the lyar in as much as they can with their lying divinations of their own brain saying the Comforter there spoken of was not Christ although he himself said I will come to you and John said he was come unto them and they were in him even in his Son Jesus Christ this is the true God and Eternal life little Children keep your selves from Idols 1 John 5. 20 21. The Baptists affirmed That it was Blasphemy to say that those things spoken of to Christs Disciples in Matth. 24. was fulfilled in that age Answ Christ said then to his Disciples many should come in his Name saying I am Christ and shall deceive many and said Lo here or lo there is Christ believe them not go not forth for the true Christ was to be known within them and he said unto them they should hear of wars and rumors of wars and earth-quakes was to be and the love of many shall wax cold because iniquity shall abound and the Disciples was to be afflicted and persecuted and killed at the last of their age and the Sun was to be darkned and the Moon was not to give her light for a time and all these things is spoken in the 24th of Matthew and the Scriptures there and in other places doth plainly prove that these things were to come to pass in the Apostles age and therefore Christ bids them watch and be alwayes ready because the time was nigh but the day and hour no man was to know until it came and Christ said to his Disciples Matth. 24. 34. Verily I say unto you this Generation shall not pass till all these things be fulfilled and in the 14th verse Christ said And this Gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness to all Nations and then shall the end come but the Baptists counts that blasphemy for us to affirm that the end of all those things was come and so fulfilled in the Disciples age before that Generation passed away as Christ said Further I shall prove out of the Scriptures that these things did come to pass First concerning false Prophets and Antichrists they were to come unto the true Prophets and Apostles to deceive them if it were possible and they did so come as Christ said they should and the Disciples Apostles and Prophets that did watch as Christ said they should they did see the false prophets and deceivers come privily in the very form of godliness but denying the
