nothing which she had in her blood I might on this subject exceed were it to the purpose propounded Vers 5. 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 In the casting forth of seed was thy soule where is the male in coition with the female Ver. 6. He is in his blood in the womb when God first gave life to him as to Adam Blood is the seat of the Soule and so related to and concerned in it that great are the mysteries of it as concerning Jesus Christ THe new Testament was made in the blood of Christ Heb. 13.20 Luk. 22.20 1 Cor. 11.25 1 Without shedding of blood is no remission 2 The blood of Jesus cleanseth the conscience Heb. 9.14 and from all sin 1 John 17. Rev. 1.5 3 Heb. 10.19 20. By his blood we have an admission to God 4. Vers 22. Water is for the body baptism blood the conscience 5. The use whereof was set out in sprinkling pots and cups Heb. 10.22 1 Pet 1.2 this speaks peace Heb. 12.13 Note in this was the glorious act of redemption wrought and justice more excellently satisfied then in what was done on the body 1 God requiring blood for blood when a man was to dye for staying of a man so now man being for sin to dye he cannot be saved but by the death of his Son for Man 2 He requires soule for soule which are indeed the same and without this there is no remission Ap. the necessity of this knowledge I commend to all to judge of 2 King 10.24 Gen. 9.5 6. Exod. 21.23 typified in the beasts slaine for sacrifice Deut. 19.21 1 John 5.7 3 Three beare witnesse in heaven in the God-head the Father the Word the Spirit 4 Three bear witnesse in earth in the manhood of Christ the Spirit the Water the Blood Now these three accordingly are applied by Christ to man for and towards his restauration descending to him in which as Eliah 2 King 4.34 Christ applyed himselfe to man to restore him 1 Using his Spirit to quicken the dead spirit of man by which the Lord is called a quickening Spirit 2 After that hee applyes the water answering to his humane nature to wash the body by baptism 3 The blood in the Lords Supper and in redemption by his blood which is the soule part of Christ to cleanse the Conscience John 19.34 35. 1 If we have not the use of Christ in these severall ways as he hath appointed to communicate himselfe to man our faith is vain 2 This of the spirit is all that and the first only necessary thing to be apprehended for the flesh profiteth nothing it is the spirit quickeneth Joh. 6.63 3 The end of grace here is that men may be raised in spirit and be partaker of the first resurrection Rev. 20.6 unlesse this be done Christ doth nothing and this is to be done on the dead spirit or there is nothing done 4 As the spirit hath its good by Christs Spirit so the soule by Christs soule and flesh by Christs flesh 5 The good of each was properly to arise from the severall parts of Christ to those in man as the sinner needed them Christ being proportioned and fitted to be a perfect Saviour Object Gen. 35 18. As her soul was going forth for she died The soul as the spirit goeth forth of the body at death Resp 1. The dissolution of that unity was between spirit and soule and soule and body as the cause of death 2 It is like the soule goeth forth with the spirit though it is not said to goe to God but dyeth or sleeps as with the soule follows after the life and the body dyeth Object The soule and the spirit are one I Answer that is against Scripture Object As the spirit goeth forth to God so the soule Resp The Scriptures say not such a word of the soule The word 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 in the new Testament so often used hath a notable significancy in it to set this out for it signifies man the whole at death to suffer a resolution of parts the Spirit divided from Soule and Soule from Body in the corrupting thereof That the Soule suffers not hell Torments untill the last Judgement ROm. 2.8 speaks of the day of wrath which the soule that is impenitent treasures up wrath by rejecting Gods Counsell 2 This day is called the day of the revelation of the righteous Judgement of God which must be understood the last and great day of Judgement when and not before the judgement of God is revealed 3 Ver. 6. Then every one shall receive according to their works Ver. 7. When our mortality shall put on immortality and not before 4. Ver. 9. Then and not before shall be tribulation and anguish on every soule of man that doth evill the Jew first and then the Gentile Wisdom 3.1 6. By so much authority as it hath being Apocryphal proves it which whiles it agrees with the word I prefer before any authority that is meer humane Under the old Testament these were set forth distinct in Christ and so in us 1 The Goat was slain and sacrificed the body 2 His blood poured out the soule 3 The scape-Goat went away into the wildernesse the spirit which is not under the power of man Obj. This Goat is meant the divine Nature Resp 1. They were two Goats of the same nature and did represent the same person of the humanity only part as the body and soule dyed part was beyond the power of man and death 2 How unpossible the divine glory of the Divine nature of the Lord Jesus could admit of any shadow of change as to bee set out dividedly under the representation of a Goat the note of reprobates I leave all to judge To reconcile the seeming differences it is first necessary they be stated and compared 1. Part of the difference is about the place or ubi where they are which are set downe in Scripture 1 To be in the grave 2 To be under the Altar 3 To be in the body 4 To be in heaven 1 Note the first two are thus reconciled those that die the naturall death of all and are interred their soules are in grave 2 Those whose blood as that of the slain beasts was for Christ poured out at the feet of the altar and had no grave for their bodies nor burial their soules are under the altar and not as others the manner of their souls presence with Christ is a cry against those that shed their blood in which the soul blood are distinguished 3 As Paul 2 Cor. 12.2 Whether in the body or out of the body I cannot tell yet by what is said Gen. 35.18 it goeth out of the body when it hovers over it and lieth down with it in the grave or after enters into it when dead and sleeps in it the spirit and life departed from it not being willing to be alone may return to the body as before it not vanishing as the life nor going to God

Adam respects the matter éx qua as it was in its form as fitted for the Spirit and soule its informing forme 2 Ephar respects the matter ex qua out of which God at first took the Adam and gave it its form 3 Basar respects the body of man abstractively from soule and spirit as it was after it became a living soule every part being flesh 4 Sooma is spoken of relatively as it is the Tabernacle of the soule and spirit having compleatly in it all the members that make up a perfect man in the bodily part 1 This 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 lives who was made of dust 2 It is said Gen. 2.5 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 which words I thus read and there was to the soule of Adam life so as that the soul was of the Adam the earth 3 This flesh is contrary to the spirit between which the soule is placed who respects the flesh in its inferiour parts and the Spirit in its superiour These two are contrary 4 The flesh maintains a war with the regenerate soule 1 Pet. 2. 5 The fleshly estate is such men cannot therein please God Rom. 8.8 and Rom. 8.6 7. the wisdom thereof is death and is excluded the Kingdome 6 Man owes nothing to the flesh to live thereto Rom. 8.12 7. Ephes 6.5 Masters are said to be Masters according to the flesh In which was fignified First That their dominion was onely over the flesh to command it and on disobedience to punish them in the flesh Secondly As the Magistrate called the higher power had command over the soule of man Thirdly The Spirit that was onely under the Lord in which sence it is that he that is called to be a Servant is the Lords Freeman that is in his spirit estate for if the Son hath made you free then are you free indeed Note by which 1. No man is naturally free 2 No man by any means can make himself free to any spirituall good 3 The best man is made free by Jesus Christ 4 The freedome from Christ is that freedome indeed in which the dominion of Satan is destroyed 3 There is a freedome which is not a freedome indeed as in carnal natural ordinary things when the soule is so in bondage to Satan that it cannot have leave to restraine it from evil or to act any good 4 The natural service or bondage of the flesh was first inflicted on Cham by his fathers sentence for mocking of him in his nakednesse after wine 5 His curse was he should be a Servant of Servants serving such as served Satan and sin in the lusts of the flesh which was indeed to be a drudge to the De vill manifested in the flesh Note this that flesh is of the flesh Joh. 3.6 Heb. 12.9 1 It withers and dyes and is thence called mortall flesh 2 Cor. 4.11 yet Ephes 5.29 no man hateth his owne flesh 2 Being dead it resolves againe into its first matter which is dust and differs herein from the death of soule and spirit 3 It corrupts alive and dead and is very noysom to its self and others to see or smell of 4 It shewes their vanity that glory after the flesh 2 Cor. 11.18 Note John 1.14 1 The word was made or became flesh Heb 2.14 of the seed of David according to the flesh 2 In this flesh God manifested himselfe 1 Tim. 3.16 3 In the body consisting of Bones Nerves Sinewes covered by the flesh called the body of his flesh He hath reconciled us by death 4 The time of Christs being here with men are called the days of his flesh Heb. 5.7 5 The Jewish Antichrist was he that denyed Christ come in the flesh 1 Joh. 4.2 The Gentile Antichrist took the authority and place of Christ to himselfe 2 Thes 2. the Jewish Antichrist is indeed 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 2 Joh. 7. 6. 2 Cor. 5.16 We have known Christ after the flesh henceforth know we him no more 7. Heb. 10.20 The flesh is called the vaile of Christ by which the God-head and glory of Christ came to be shadowed from the eyes of those unbeleeving mortals the Lord had to doe with whiles he was among men here below 8 By which he is said to prepare a new and living way for man to God men before coming to God by Aaron and bringing Beasts and Fruits and Fowle not appearing before God empty which God on the Sons assuming flesh Heb. 10.8 9. rejected now the new way because the other waxed old and was done away took place no man more with the sacrifice of beasts being to appear before God but the body God had prepared Christ to be a Sacrifice for us to which the Apostle alludes Heb. 9.8 the Spirit the holy signifying this that as yet the way of the Holies was not made manifest whiles the first Tabernacle was standing 9 Christ was put to death in the flesh 1 Pet. 3.18 and 4.1 Note the flesh though it is the meaner and baser part of man yet it had means applyed to it of God for sanctification and is said to be the Temple of the Holy Spirit 1 In the Lords taking our flesh in which it was exalted above the nature of Angels it being assumed to the divine nature of God God and Man making one Saviour 2 Among the Ordinances under the Law was circumcision of the flesh 3 The Law of the Ten Commandements was a fleshly Commandement though of a spiritual nature it being to judge the flesh by and direct the body 4 The blood of Buls and Goats that washed away the filth of the flesh which I take not to respect the outward uncleannesse contracted by any natural pollution but soule-pollution for all pollution is comprehended under filthinesse of the flesh and spirit which I take thus to be done 1 That there being sin committed by which pollution was contracted the soule could not draw near to God without some flaine beast for an offering by which the flesh was said to be cleansed and preserved from that filth brought death corporal 2 The Spirit shews it was the blood of Christ offered up by the eternal Spirit to God cleansed the Conscience from sins presenting it blameless to God which the other offerings could not do by the other they came to God but not as by this Now under the Gospell Baptisme is an Ordinance said to exceed these 1 Pet. 3.21 where to baptize is a type and now saveth us being not the putting away of the spot of the flesh but the Answer of a good Conscience to God by the resurrection of Jesus Christ 3 Yet the flesh of Christ profits nothing those to whom the Spirit of Christ is not given so that all mankind who have not his Spirit have no profit by his flesh
