christ_n in_o we_o in_o its_o own_o nature_n be_v above_o all_o ordinance_n wherefore_o to_o speak_v truth_n all_o rule_n and_o operation_n and_o ordinance_n to_o we_o be_v useless_a and_o void_a reply_n 1_o we_o will_v examine_v all_o those_o text_n you_o allege_v and_o first_o that_o in_o genesis_n the_o metaphor_n be_v take_v from_o breathe_v speak_v of_o by_o moses_n be_v take_v from_o creature_n that_o live_v by_o breathe_v as_o man_n or_o beast_n or_o the_o like_a and_o although_o there_o be_v a_o near_a relation_n between_o their_o breath_n and_o their_o nature_n yet_o they_o be_v two_o distinct_a thing_n that_o be_v their_o breath_n or_o breathe_v be_v one_o thing_n and_o the_o essence_n or_o substance_n of_o their_o body_n in_o another_o thing_n still_o distinct_a although_o never_o total_o separate_v but_o by_o death_n so_o in_o this_o cause_n the_o divine_a essence_n or_o nature_n of_o god_n be_v one_o thing_n and_o that_o virtue_n that_o he_o be_v please_v to_o put_v forth_o to_o give_v be_v to_o the_o reasonable_a soul_n of_o a_o man_n be_v ever_o distinct_a as_o for_o example_n the_o nature_n of_o god_n in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n breathe_v upon_o the_o apostle_n and_o endue_v they_o with_o a_o apostolical_a spirit_n that_o be_v in_o the_o rectitude_n of_o their_o understanding_n in_o divine_a light_n and_o their_o will_n in_o pure_a affection_n in_o love_n to_o his_o glory_n in_o the_o conversion_n of_o the_o world_n by_o the_o gospel_n yet_o still_o that_o virtue_n in_o its_o effect_n in_o they_o be_v one_o thing_n and_o his_o divine_a nature_n or_o essence_n in_o himself_o be_v another_o thing_n 5.30_o matth._n 5.30_o so_o likewise_o from_o the_o same_o divine_a essence_n there_o go_v virtue_n to_o the_o woman_n of_o a_o

likewise_o in_o the_o shadow_n of_o the_o apostle_n body_n god_n be_v please_v to_o put_v forth_o himself_o by_o virtue_n flow_v from_o himself_o to_o the_o cure_n of_o many_o disease_a people_n as_o they_o go_v in_o the_o street_n yet_o the_o people_n body_n that_o be_v cure_v and_o the_o shadow_n of_o the_o apostle_n body_n and_o the_o virtue_n that_o flow_v from_o god_n and_o god_n own_o essence_n be_v all_o distinct_a thing_n in_o their_o several_a nature_n and_o kind_n even_o so_o when_o god_n give_v be_v to_o the_o reasonable_a soul_n by_o breathe_v into_o man_n nostril_n the_o

when_o he_o be_v please_v to_o reduce_v that_o virtue_n and_o potency_n to_o act_v creative_o that_o be_v another_o thing_n from_o which_o thing_n it_o be_v that_o the_o creature_n be_v the_o

and_o not_o to_o all_o man_n kind_n as_o the_o drift_n of_o your_o opinion_n point_n at_o for_o the_o word_n be_v these_o but_o he_o that_o be_v join_v or_o cleave_v to_o the_o lord_n be_v one_o

direct_o against_o your_o opinion_n again_o for_o the_o next_o text_n in_o regard_n it_o refer_v believer_n to_o god_n precious_a promise_n and_o faith_n 5._o 1_o pet._n 1.4_o 5._o and_o love_n and_o

the_o scope_n of_o this_o text_n also_o be_v against_o your_o opinion_n again_o the_o other_o text_n christ_n in_o you_o the_o hope_n of_o glory_n the_o drift_n of_o it_o be_v no_o more_o but_o this_o 27._o colos_n 1.23_o 27._o that_o christ_n dwell_v in_o believer_n heart_n by_o faith_n and_o love_n from_o whence_o they_o live_v in_o hope_n of_o a_o full_a fruition_n and_o glory_n with_o he_o for_o ever_o in_o the_o next_o life_n but_o as_o for_o your_o blaspeamous_a error_n if_o you_o be_v the_o divine_a nature_n essential_o it_o full_o enjoy_v itself_o infinite_o therefore_o your_o error_n be_v contrary_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o hope_n therefore_o the_o drift_n of_o this_o text_n be_v also_o against_o you_o again_o whereas_o you_o allege_v the_o text_n of_o scripture_n and_o the_o like_a it_o be_v only_o a_o introduction_n to_o draw_v man_n mind_n from_o believe_v the_o sacred_a scripture_n to_o be_v god_n word_n to_o believe_v that_o the_o only_a true_a scripture_n be_v the_o divine_a essence_n essential_o in_o themselves_o and_o so_o to_o believe_v a_o lie_n for_o what_o man_n can_v believe_v that_o be_v in_o his_o right_a mind_n that_o himself_o be_v god_n or_o christ_n and_o yet_o can_v walk_v upon_o the_o sea_n as_o christ_n do_v nor_o deliver_v himself_o out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o his_o enemy_n and_o not_o render_v himself_o into_o their_o hand_n till_o he_o please_v as_o do_v the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n when_o his_o hour_n be_v come_v nor_o cause_v the_o sun_n to_o go_v back_o so_o many_o degree_n as_o please_v themselves_o as_o god_n do_v again_o for_o conclusion_n take_v this_o one_o observation_n more_o from_o the_o precedent_a premise_n 13._o gen._n 17.10_o 11_o 12_o 13._o namely_o that_o there_o be_v a_o threefold_a ground_n why_o god_n make_v a_o law_n that_o infant_n as_o such_o shall_v be_v member_n of_o christ_n visible_a church_n and_o so_o under_o the_o use_n of_o ordinance_n in_o the_o church_n the_o first_o be_v this_o because_o the_o whole_a humane_a nature_n as_o such_o god_n elect_v in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n the_o seed_n of_o the_o woman_n in_o the_o fall_a mass_n out_o of_o that_o fall_n into_o a_o capacity_n of_o the_o say_a posture_n in_o which_o they_o may_v if_o they_o live_v to_o the_o use_n of_o reason_n by_o belief_n receive_v in_o the_o gift_n of_o righteousness_n eternal_a life_n as_o be_v prove_v and_o this_o election_n be_v the_o first_o ground_n of_o their_o right_n to_o be_v member_n of_o christ_n visible_a church_n and_o so_o the_o first_o ground_n why_o god_n give_v that_o law_n hence_o it_o be_v that_o christ_n say_v 19.14_o matth._n 19.14_o suffer_v little_a child_n and_o forbid_v they_o not_o to_o come_v unto_o i_o for_o of_o such_o be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n a_o second_o ground_n be_v this_o if_o the_o whole_a creation_n have_v a_o right_n of_o relation_n to_o christ_n by_o virtue_n of_o his_o righteousness_n impute_v as_o interpose_v the_o unrighteousness_n of_o adam_n impute_v and_o by_o it_o travel_v until_o now_o as_o be_v prove_v then_o much_o more_o have_v humane_a nature_n as_o such_o a_o right_a of_o relation_n to_o be_v christ_n visible_a church_n and_o this_o be_v the_o second_o ground_n of_o that_o law_n why_o infant_n shall_v be_v member_n the_o which_o law_n be_v never_o repeal_v a_o three_o ground_n be_v this_o because_o as_o be_v prove_v all_o mankind_n die_v in_o infancy_n or_o the_o like_a ascend_v to_o heaven_n and_o there_o be_v member_n of_o the_o church_n triumphant_a therefore_o much_o more_o have_v they_o a_o right_n to_o the_o church_n militant_a and_o all_o church_n and_o ordinance_n here_o upon_o earth_n the_o which_o right_o can_v never_o be_v lose_v except_o they_o live_v to_o be_v able_a to_o act_v unbelieving_a operation_n and_o so_o put_v away_o their_o right_n as_o do_v esaw_n judge_v themselves_o unworthy_a of_o eternal_a life_n and_o this_o be_v a_o three_o ground_n of_o that_o law_n whereby_o infant_n be_v institute_v member_n of_o the_o visible_a church_n of_o christ_n finis_fw-la

faith_n implicit_a as_o most_o weak_a to_o faith_n more_o strong_a and_o expressive_a as_o former_o be_v prove_v his_o three_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n be_v reveal_v from_o heaven_n upon_o all_o unrighteousness_n of_o man_n which_o withhold_v the_o truth_n in_o unrighteousness_n for_o as_o much_o as_o that_o which_o may_v be_v know_v of_o god_n be_v manifest_a in_o they_o for_o say_v he_o god_n have_v show_v it_o unto_o they_o namely_o by_o the_o creation_n and_o the_o gospel_n 1.19_o rom._n 1.19_o as_o aforesaid_a for_o that_o be_v here_o employ_v the_o first_o reason_n why_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n thus_o strive_v with_o the_o spirit_n of_o these_o heathen_n and_o all_o man_n else_o may_v be_v this_o although_o it_o be_v all_o alike_o unto_o god_n in_o respect_n of_o his_o final_a end_n whether_o the_o most_o or_o least_o number_n of_o man_n be_v make_v vessel_n of_o honour_n or_o dishonour_n unto_o eternity_n so_o all_o be_v either_o one_o or_o the_o other_o because_o by_o his_o merciful_a and_o just_a proceed_n in_o the_o suitable_a rule_n his_o glory_n in_o a_o most_o sweet_a righteousness_n shine_v forth_o eternal_o in_o either_o to_o his_o praise_n and_o yet_o nevertheless_o in_o respect_n to_o man_n it_o be_v his_o creature_n 29._o act_n 17._o from_o 25._o to_o 29._o his_o offspring_n and_o generation_n which_o as_o say_v the_o text_n he_o have_v make_v of_o one_o blood_n and_o under_o the_o aforesaid_a universal_a election_n yet_o in_o this_o respect_n god_n will_v rather_o man_n will_v as_o he_o shall_v and_o may_v according_a to_o this_o rule_n and_o christ_n spirit_n strive_v with_o his_o spirit_n return_v by_o his_o operation_n into_o the_o say_a posture_n to_o receive_v the_o say_a gift_n of_o life_n and_o be_v bless_v for_o ever_o as_o i_o live_v say_v the_o lord_n god_n 18.27_o ezek._n 18.27_o i_o have_v no_o pleasure_n in_o the_o death_n of_o the_o wicked_a but_o that_o the_o wicked_a turn_n from_o his_o way_n and_o live_v when_o the_o wicked_a man_n turn_v away_o from_o his_o wickedness_n that_o he_o have_v commit_v 33.11_o ezek._n 33.11_o and_o do_v that_o which_o be_v lawful_a and_o right_a he_o shall_v save_v his_o soul_n alive_a the_o second_o reason_n why_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n thus_o strive_v with_o the_o spirit_n of_o these_o heathen_n and_o all_o man_n be_v because_o the_o apostate_n angel_n do_v universal_o endeavour_v by_o their_o temptation_n lie_n and_o delusion_n to_o keep_v all_o mankind_n from_o receive_v the_o say_a gift_n of_o life_n and_o therefore_o do_v endeavour_v not_o only_o to_o extinguish_v the_o preach_a of_o the_o gospel_n but_o also_o to_o extinguish_v and_o turn_v the_o internal_a light_n of_o christ_n in_o all_o man_n into_o darkness_n and_o if_o they_o can_v possible_o draw_v all_o man_n into_o eternal_a darkness_n and_o their_o main_a end_n in_o all_o this_o be_v that_o god_n may_v not_o have_v any_o glory_n in_o man_n felicity_n to_o eternity_n and_o therefore_o to_o repel_v this_o their_o design_n in_o that_o particular_a branch_n it_o be_v that_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n thus_o strive_v with_o all_o man_n and_o for_o this_o end_n we_o see_v the_o seed_n of_o the_o woman_n be_v elect_v to_o be_v christ_n the_o lord_n and_o second_o adam_n and_o for_o this_o end_n god_n so_o love_v the_o world_n that_o he_o give_v his_o only_a beget_v son_n that_o whosoever_o by_o believe_a operation_n will_v receive_v the_o say_a gift_n of_o life_n shall_v not_o perish_v but_o have_v everlasting_a life_n for_o therefore_o we_o see_v god_n elect_v the_o fall_a mass_n of_o mankind_n out_o of_o that_o despicable_a estate_n into_o the_o say_a posture_n as_o be_v prove_v and_o also_o therefore_o we_o see_v that_o god_n elect_v one_o nation_n to_o be_v and_o to_o be_v in_o the_o say_a posture_n to_o carry_v on_o his_o say_a final_a end_n as_o it_o respect_v this_o particular_a branch_n not_o for_o their_o sake_n but_o for_o his_o own_o name_n sake_n and_o likewise_o we_o see_v to_o carry_v on_o this_o say_v final_a end_n in_o this_o particular_a branch_n he_o have_v mercy_n upon_o who_o he_o will_v have_v mercy_n and_o who_o he_o will_v he_o harden_v when_o by_o their_o acquire_v habit_n in_o sin_n against_o the_o say_a posture_n they_o be_v all_o alike_o dead_a in_o sin_n and_o trespass_n i_o say_v not_o in_o love_n or_o hatred_n to_o any_o of_o these_o man_n personal_o consider_v but_o only_o in_o love_n to_o himself_o in_o the_o prosecution_n of_o this_o branch_n of_o his_o say_a final_a end_n as_o be_v prove_v that_o he_o call_v the_o gentile_n to_o this_o posture_n but_o deny_v it_o at_o that_o time_n to_o the_o jew_n and_o so_o on_o this_o sixteen_o hundred_o year_n and_o that_o in_o pursuance_n of_o the_o say_a branch_n will_v call_v they_o to_o this_o posture_n again_o by_o which_o they_o may_v receive_v the_o say_a gift_n of_o life_n and_o this_o be_v the_o ground_n why_o he_o precedent_o make_v so_o many_o glorious_a promise_n of_o call_v the_o gentile_n and_o also_o of_o the_o jew_n according_a to_o his_o covenant_n with_o abraham_n isaac_n and_o jacob_n and_o from_o this_o cause_n only_o they_o be_v belove_v for_o their_o father_n sake_n as_o be_v prove_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n thus_o strive_v with_o the_o spirit_n of_o these_o heathen_n and_o all_o man_n else_o as_o be_v prove_v the_o three_o reason_n may_v be_v this_o because_o the_o more_o man_n be_v bring_v by_o the_o strive_n of_o christ_n spirit_n with_o their_o spirit_n to_o believe_a operation_n in_o this_o posture_n by_o the_o reception_n of_o this_o gift_n of_o life_n in_o point_n of_o justification_n the_o more_o fruit_n of_o righteousness_n abound_v also_o in_o their_o sanctification_n in_o a_o redundancy_n to_o god_n glory_n against_o the_o apostate_n angel_n say_v design_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n thus_o strive_v as_o with_o these_o heathen_n so_o with_o all_o man_n the_o first_o use_n be_v for_o information_n that_o if_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n thus_o strive_v with_o the_o spirit_n of_o all_o mankind_n to_o bring_v they_o to_o and_o to_o keep_v they_o in_o this_o posture_n hence_o we_o learn_v two_o thing_n first_o that_o the_o strive_v of_o this_o spirit_n to_o all_o mankind_n as_o be_v prove_v be_v the_o universal_a favour_n of_o god_n in_o jesus_n christ_n to_o all_o man_n in_o the_o world_n the_o second_o be_v this_o that_o those_o among_o man_n which_o by_o believe_a operation_n right_o receive_v the_o say_a gift_n of_o righteousness_n shall_v muchmore_o receive_v abundance_n of_o grace_n and_o of_o the_o gift_n of_o righteousness_n and_o shall_v reign_v in_o life_n by_o one_o namely_o jesus_n christ_n that_o as_o sin_n have_v reign_v unto_o death_n even_o so_o may_v grace_v reign_n through_o righteousness_n 5.19_o rom._n 5.19_o unto_o eternal_a life_n by_o jesus_n christ_n the_o second_o use_n be_v this_o that_o god_n will_v never_o revoke_v that_o pardon_n of_o the_o guilt_n and_o punishment_n namely_o eternal_a death_n due_a to_o all_o mankind_n for_o adam_n one_o offence_n first_o because_o of_o his_o say_a gift_n of_o life_n which_o come_v upon_o all_o man_n unto_o justification_n in_o the_o imputative_a righteousness_n of_o christ_n as_o be_v prove_v for_o for_o this_o end_n he_o give_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n thus_o to_o strive_v with_o the_o spirit_n of_o all_o man_n from_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n to_o the_o end_n thereof_o that_o they_o may_v receive_v the_o say_a gift_n of_o life_n therefore_o the_o pardon_n of_o the_o say_a guilt_n and_o punishment_n due_a to_o all_o mankind_n for_o adam_n one_o offence_n stand_v irrevocable_a to_o eternity_n for_o ever_o since_o the_o fall_v this_o be_v the_o condemnation_n now_o this_o light_n of_o life_n be_v come_v into_o the_o world_n because_o man_n love_v darkness_n rather_o than_o light_v the_o three_o use_v god_n be_v irrevocable_a in_o this_o point_n also_o namely_o to_o give_v to_o any_o man_n the_o possession_n of_o eternal_a life_n in_o this_o world_n by_o belief_n and_o the_o fruition_n in_o the_o next_o world_n which_o be_v constant_a in_o his_o believe_a operation_n in_o the_o say_a posture_n according_a to_o the_o strive_v of_o christ_n spirit_n with_o his_o spirit_n for_o say_v our_o lord_n he_o that_o endure_v to_o the_o end_n shall_v be_v save_v in_o the_o four_o place_n this_o inform_v we_o also_o that_o if_o any_o man_n be_v by_o god_n dispossess_v of_o his_o eternal_a life_n in_o this_o world_n and_o so_o in_o the_o next_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v he_o quench_v this_o spirit_n of_o christ_n which_o thus_o by_o belief_n give_v he_o possession_n of_o it_o here_o and_o so_o will_v have_v do_v there_o have_v he_o not_o
