A14095 A discovery of D. Iacksons vanitie. Or A perspective glasse, wherby the admirers of D. Iacksons profound discourses, may see the vanitie and weaknesse of them, in sundry passages, and especially so farre as they tende to the undermining of the doctrine hitherto received. Written by William Twisse, Doctor of Divinitie, as they say, from whom the copie came to the presse Twisse, William, 1578?-1646. 1631 (1631) STC 24402; ESTC S118777 563,516 728

god_n by_o in_o this_o argument_n of_o eternity_n as_o you_o do_v devise_v in_o the_o other_o of_o immensity_n that_o say_v of_o tertullian_n you_o mention_v be_v no_o more_o appliable_a to_o god_n

be_v so_o still_o and_o not_o only_o be_v so_o before_o all_o thing_n in_o as_o much_o as_o he_o have_v no_o more_o need_n of_o they_o then_o before_o all_o thing_n he_o have_v you_o say_v we_o can_v proper_o say_v god_n be_v in_o time_n before_o the_o world_n be_v make_v i_o say_v such_o a_o speech_n in_o my_o judgement_n seem_v to_o be_v neither_o proper_a nor_o improper_a but_o direct_o false_a even_o as_o false_a as_o to_o say_v god_n be_v in_o place_n before_o he_o make_v the_o world_n for_o before_o the_o world_n be_v make_v there_o be_v neither_o time_n nor_o place_n now_o he_o be_v in_o neither_o as_n contain_v in_o they_o but_o only_o as_o contain_v both_o time_n and_o place_n which_o before_o the_o world_n absolute_o be_v not_o at_o all_o &_o consequent_o can_v not_o be_v contain_v by_o he_o i_o do_v not_o think_v that_o austin_n himself_o be_v conscious_a of_o any_o acuteness_n in_o infer_v that_o god_n can_v not_o have_v be_v before_o all_o time_n if_o he_o have_v always_o be_v in_o time_n for_o common_a sense_n do_v justify_v that_o that_o leg_n which_o be_v ever_o in_o the_o stock_n be_v never_o out_o of_o the_o stock_n but_o whereas_o you_o say_v that_o we_o believe_v god_n to_o be_v as_o true_o before_o all_o time_n future_a as_o before_o all_o time_n past_a &_o seem_v to_o affect_v it_o as_o a_o subtlety_n of_o opinion_n herein_o i_o willing_o profess_v that_o if_o it_o be_v a_o subtlety_n it_o be_v of_o so_o subtle_a a_o sense_n as_o quite_o pass_v my_o intelligence_n i_o have_v think_v it_o may_v be_v avouch_v of_o every_o thing_n that_o be_v

be_v give_v of_o this_o because_o common_a sense_n i_o think_v do_v justify_v it_o yet_o you_o seem_v to_o make_v this_o a_o peculiar_a property_n of_o god_n that_o like_a as_o he_o be_v before_o all_o time_n past_a so_o also_o he_o be_v before_o all_o time_n to_o come_v yet_o i_o guess_v at_o your_o meaning_n for_o we_o now_o existent_a allbeit_v we_o be_v before_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v to_o come_v yet_o it_o be_v not_o necessary_a that_o we_o shall_v be_v after_o they_o but_o god_n as_o he_o be_v before_o all_o so_o if_o it_o please_v he_o he_o may_v be_v after_o all_o for_o god_n be_v that_o which_o be_v &_o be_v &_o be_v to_o come_v that_o be_v which_o shall_v be_v and_o that_o for_o ever_o of_o himself_o now_o this_o phrase_n to_o be_v after_o all_o in_o a_o sublimate_n streyne_v of_o conceit_n attribute_v unto_o god_n be_v more_o true_o and_o perfect_o to_o be_v account_v his_o be_v before_o all_o then_o after_o all_o in_o your_o opinion_n as_o it_o seem_v like_v as_o the_o heaven_n inviron_v the_o earth_n though_o they_o seem_v to_o sense_n to_o be_v under_o the_o earth_n and_o under_o our_o antipode_n yet_o indeed_o they_o be_v above_o they_o so_o god_n in_o be_v after_o all_o thing_n future_a be_v more_o proper_o and_o true_o to_o be_v account_v before_o they_o this_o mystery_n i_o seem_v to_o find_v by_o your_o subsequentd_v iscourse_n and_o i_o wonder_v what_o you_o mean_v to_o carry_v yourself_o so_o in_o the_o cloud_n when_o you_o may_v have_v express_v yourself_o plain_o and_o sure_o it_o be_v no_o glory_n to_o affect_v a_o lofty_a understanding_n of_o your_o own_o phrase_n above_o the_o apprehension_n of_o your_o reader_n when_o your_o term_n be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o express_v your_o meaning_n this_o be_v to_o equivocate_v like_o the_o jesuit_n of_o that_o conceit_n of_o you_o i_o will_v prepanre_v myself_o to_o consider_v against_o the_o time_n i_o shall_v arrive_v to_o your_o more_o full_a discourse_n thereof_o in_o the_o pa●s_v subsequent_a of_o this_o chapter_n in_o the_o next_o place_n you_o propose_v a_o conclusion_n which_o be_v this_o his_o eternity_n then_o be_v the_o inexhaustible_a founteyne_v or_o

past_a now_o to_o infer_v that_o god_n be_v before_o all_o time_n therefore_o all_o time_n flow_v from_o his_o eternity_n be_v no_o good_a consequence_n you_o may_v as_o well_o argue_v thus_o god_n be_v before_o all_o place_n therefore_o all_o place_n flow_v from_o god_n eternity_n we_o ourselves_o be_v before_o all_o time_n that_o be_v to_o come_v but_o herehence_a it_o follow_v not_o that_o all_o time_n to_o come_v flow_v from_o our_o eternity_n or_o from_o we_o suppose_v angel_n have_v be_v make_v before_o the_o world_n yet_o will_v it_o not_o thence_o follow_v that_o the_o world_n do_v flow_v from_o they_o now_o for_o the_o proposition_n itself_o infer_v it_o be_v subject_a to_o exception_n divers_a way_n the_o phrase_n to_o flow_v savour_v of_o a_o natural_a &_o necessary_a

natural_a emanation_n from_o god_n be_v not_o to_o be_v find_v but_o in_o god_n and_o that_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o person_n the_o son_n be_v natural_a and_o necessary_o beget_v of_o the_o father_n &_o the_o h._n ghost_n natural_o and_o necessary_o proceed_v both_o from_o the_o father_n &_o the_o son_n again_o the_o water_n that_o flow_v from_o the_o founteyne_v on_o from_o the_o ocean_n be_v of_o the_o same_o nature_n with_o the_o founteyne_v on_o with_o the_o water_n of_o the_o ocean_n so_o be_v not_o time_n of_o the_o same_o nature_n with_o eternity_n from_o whence_o you_o say_v it_o flow_v again_o it_o be_v untrue_a that_o eternity_n produce_v time_n or_o duration_n of_o thing_n create_v for_o the_o duration_n of_o they_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o continuance_n of_o their_o existence_n therefore_o look_v what_o produce_v the_o thing_n themselves_o &_o maintain_v they_o be_v produce_v from_o thence_o they_o be_v to_o be_v account_v to_o have_v their_o beginning_n now_o it_o be_v the_o power_n and_o will_n of_o god_n whereby_o thing_n be_v create_v and_o preserve_v &_o not_o the_o eternity_n of_o god_n by_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v the_o heaven_n make_v &_o all_o the_o host_n of_o they_o by_o the_o breath_n of_o his_o mouth_n we_o no_o where_o read_v that_o by_o the_o eternity_n of_o god_n all_o thing_n be_v make_v angel_n and_o man_n heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o so_o likewise_o as_o by_o his_o word_n he_o make_v all_o thing_n so_o by_o the_o power_n of_o his_o mighty_a word_n he_o support_v all_o thing_n heb._n 1_o and_o 1._o therefore_o all_o thing_n both_o touch_v their_o be_v and_o duration_n depend_v upon_o the_o mighty_a word_n of_o god_n this_o we_o have_v ground_n for_o but_o that_o they_o depend_v upon_o his_o eternity_n we_o have_v no_o ground_n to_o affirm_v though_o it_o be_v true_a that_o both_o god_n and_o his_o word_n and_o spirit_n be_v eternal_a otherwise_o he_o can_v not_o be_v the_o creator_n of_o the_o world_n upon_o the_o back_n of_o this_o you_o come_v in_o with_o a_o new_a paradox_n namely_o that_o from_o all_o eternity_n there_o be_v a_o possibility_n for_o we_o to_o be_v as_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o a_o creature_n to_o be_v from_o all_o eternity_n yet_o i_o know_v some_o schoolman_n have_v maynteyn_v it_o as_o what_o will_v not_o wild_a wit_n dare_v to_o undertake_v but_o do_v it_o therefore_o become_v a_o divine_a to_o suppose_v it_o without_o all_o proof_n i_o hold_v it_o to_o be_v impossible_a and_o durand_n reason_n to_o the_o contrary_n be_v more_o pregnant_a in_o my_o
