A29125	A compendious answer to a book called A brief survay of the judgement of Mr. John Goodvvin, and the Church of God walking with him, touching their reasons of dissenting from many of their brethren, in these imprtant heads of doctrine; 1. Election and reprobation. 2. The death of Christ. 3. The grace of God in and about conversion. 4. The liberty or power of the will, or of the creature man. 5. The perseverance of the saints. VVherein the absurdities of all their dissenting doctrines are clearly exhibited, by a loving friend to the truth it self, Ellis Bradshaw.

to them that love him and keep his Commandements Conseq 2. And then it would likewise follow that it were all one and no greater disparagement to be the children of fooles and children of base men that are viler than the earth than the proper seed of such as love God and keepe his Commandements See Job 30.8 Conjeq 3. And then it would follow that the Apostle said not true when he said Else your children were uncleane but now are they holy 1 Cor. 7.14 If it be so that all children being new borne be alike uncleane or alike holy and in the same measure Conseq 4. And then it would follow that it is all one whether we possesse our vessels in holinesse and in honour or in the lust of concupiscence like such as know not God If by that meanes our seed when propagated should not be the better and the more holy and honourable in the sight of God See 1 Thes 4.4 5. Conseq 5. It would follow that there were unrighteousnesse with God in that fevere exclusion of Ammonites and Moabites and Bastards likewise from entring into the congregation of the Lord to their tenth generation Deur 23.2 3 4. Conseq 6. Then it were all one to be as Ishmael borne after the flesh as to be borne as Isaac a child of promise to wit At such a time will I come unto thee and Sarah shall have a sonne See Gal. 4.23 28. and Rom. 9.8 9. Gen 18.10 Conseq 7. Then it would follow that the fruits and operations of the Spirit are all alike good in the sight of God with the fruits and effects and operations of the flesh if we must expect to reape the same fruits or the like effects And then it is no matter of walking in the spirit that we might not fulfill the lusts of the flesh And so adultery fornication uncleannesse lasciviousnesse evill concupiscence and inordiuate affections are all one in effect with love joy peace long-suffering gentlenesse goodnesse faith meeknesse temperance as Gal. 5.16 19 20 21 22 23. and Eph. 1.2 3 4 5 6 c. to 13. Col. 3.5 6. Then it were all one to walke after the spirit or to be drawn away by our owne lusts and entised and so when lust hath conceived saith the Apostle Iames it bringeth forth sinne and sinne when it is finished bringeth forth death whereas every good gift and every perfect gift cometh from above Jam. 1.14 15 16 17. and Chap. 3.17 Whereas all other affections are but from beneath earthly sensuall or devilish vers 15. Yea then it is all one to sow to the flesh as to the spirit yea to make provision for the flesh to fulfill the lusts thereof as to sow to the spirit if we may expect the same fruits Gal. 6.6 And so all these Scriptures untrue and vaine See also Rom. 8. to 15. Conseq 8. Then it would follow that it might as properly be spoken of the Elect as of the wicked Psal 58.3 4 5. to wit The wicked are estranged from the wombe they goe astray as soone as they be borne speaking lyes Their poyson is as the poyson of aserpent they are like the deafe adder that stoppeth her eare which will not hearken to the voyce of charmers charming never so wisely Conseq 9. And so by consequence we may pray as David against not onely the wicked but all mankind to wit Breake their teeth O God c. vers 6 7 8. and prophesy as vers 9. How suddainly they shall be destroyed at which the righteous shall rejoyce as vers 10 11. Conseq 10. Then it would follow that all generations are alike and have the same spot or stampe and temper of spirit contrary to that text Deut. 32.5 to wit They have corrupted themselves their spot is not the spot of his children they are a perverse and crooked generation And contrary to those various expressions of the sorts of generations that we reade of in Scripture as Prov. 30.11 to wit There is a generation that curseth their father and that doth not blesse their mother There is a generation that are pure in their owne eyes and yet is not washed from their filthinesse v. 12. There is a generation Oh how lofty are their eyes and their eye-lids are lifted up v. 13. There is a generation whose teeth are as swords and their jaw-teeth as knives to destroy the poor from off the earth and the needy from among men v. 14. And contrary to our ordinary experience as for the most part it is for though godly parents may have some prophane children and prophane parents may have some godly children yet for the most part as the Scripture speakes it is found by experience that like father like sonne like mother like daughter For by generation their likenesse is stamped or propagated from them in the very seed of generation so that generations of vipers are a viperous brood and therefore Iohn the Baptist wondred much who had forew arned such to fly from the wrath to come And an evill and an adulterous generation are an evill and an adulterous brood and therefore was that though they sought a signe there should be no signe given unto them but the signe of the Prophet Jonas And againe some are called children of wickednesse because wickednesse was predominant and the chiefe cause of their generations And some againe are called children of the Devill sonnes of Belial and are therefore said to be of their father the Devill by Christ himselfe though of the Jewish nation and therefore Christ told them plainly they did and would doe their fathers workes or lusts John 8.44 and 1 John 3.8 He that committeth sinne is of the Devill Cain was of the wicked one and slew his brother v. 12. And on the other part some are called An holy generation a chosen generation the generation of the Just which shall be blessed the off-spring of God a righteous seed a seed left us as a remnant when others are destroyed yea a seed which the Lord hath blessed and of whom he testifieth that he formed them from the wombe and that he will helpe them and that he will poure his Spirit upon their seed and his blessing upon their off-spring and they shall spring up as among the grasse as willowes by the water-courses One shall say I am the Lords and another shall call himselfe by the name of Iacob and another shall subscribe with his hand unto the Lord and simame himselfe by the name of Israel Isa 44.3 4 5. Salomon was no sooner borne but David by the Spirit of prophecy called his name Jadidiah because the Lord loved him and whom he loves once he loves to the end He saith allso to Ieremiah Before I formed thee in the wombe I knew thee and before thou camest out of the wombe I sanctified thee c. Jerem. 1. and Iohn the Baptist was filled with the Holy Ghost in his mothers womb and sprang in her womb at the voyce of
