A84133 The Anabaptists ground-work for reformation: or, New planting of churches, that no man, woman, nor child, may be baptized, but such as have justifying faith, and doe make profession thereof, before, to the baptizer, found false, with all things depending thereon. As being contrary to the Scriptures, and to the examples of Christ and his Apostles, ... Proved by severall arguments. Whereunto one T.L. a principall baptizer, (and apostle in their account) hath given his answers. Unto which answers, replies are also made by I.E. and some arguments annexed, proving, that the children of all such beleevers as were baptized, and so received into the Church, might be baptized, and received also. With a brief declaration what the true reformation is, and shal be, farre above these Anabaptists, and all such carnall builders conceits. And who the two witnesses of God are, by whom chiefly it is to be performed. Imprimatut [sic].

bound in heaven and whatsoever they shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven as he also declared Matth. 16. vers 18 19. Neither is the Prince or Magistrate having the same grace exempted from these priviledges because he is in place of authoritie but rather the more to be honoured that way This Church I say shall now daily in respect of her light of Faith and Truth and other graces and gifts of the Spirit increase and by the word of Gods two Testaments and power of his Spirit wherewith hee hath and will replenish her shall not onely convince the Antichristian people and wicked perishing World of sinne of righteousnesse and of judgement but also and more especially by the same Word of Truth and power of his Spirit bring forth and accomplish all her owne children even the full number of Gods elect the generation of his first-borne which within the very time of this present last age will bee fully perfected as the Prophet Daniel declareth Dan. 12.12.13 according to the words of Christ Matth. 24.29 Rev. 11.14 For as the true estate of the primitive Church of Christ lasted but a short time before the Dragon raised his great persecution against her and her Child the first fruits wherewith shee was then in travell to bee delivered by which meanes shee was inforced to flie into the Wildernesse and so the great light of her bright shining graces shee being then clothed with the Sunne and having the Moon under her feet and on her head a Crowne of twelve Starres which made her so visible like a Citie set upon a Hill that cannot bee hid and as a Candle in a Candlestick which giveth light to all that are in the house was elipsed and hidden in obscuritie in comparison of her first estate as you may read and perceive Rev. 12. So now after the desolation of Antichrist which is now neere at hand the time will bee as short wherein her light shall in a measure so shine againe and shee shall travell to bring forth her last fruits unto God and to the Lamb before the Dragon the Devill Satan who in respect of his former practices as Revel 12. and before hee hath been so long time bound shall bee loosed again out of his prison and goe unto the Kings of the earth and of the whole World to deceive the Nations that are in the foure quarters of the Earth even Gog and Magog and gather them together and bring them downe in number like the sand of the Sea and compasse the Camp of the Saints about and the beloved Citie and so for a little season greatly trouble her even till fire shall come down from God out of heaven and devoure them as it is written Rev. 16.14 Rev. 20.7.8.9 according to Ezek. 38.39 chapters And then the Lord JESUS CHRIST will come in his glory and all his holy Angels with him and then he shall sit in the throne of his glory and all the dead both good and bad shall bee raised and with the living bee brought before him and hee will separate the Sheep from the Goats the Books shall bee opened and they shall bee judged every man according to his workes as it is written Matth. 25.31 31 32 33 34 c. John 5.28 29. Revel 20.11 12 13 c. And so the judgement being passed and the corrupt state of this world dissolved there shall bee new heavens and a new earth and the holy Citie new Jerusalem the Bride the Lambs wife shall bee manifested from heaven in her perfect glory with all her children according as it is often in Scripture foretold of her Esay 49.14 15 c.
