AN ANTIDOTE AGAINST THAT Poysonous and Fundamental ERROR OF THE QUAKERS Denying the same Numerical true and real Manhood of Jesus Christ in Heaven a place remote from the Earth In two SERMONS Preached at Hartford By W. H. CHRISTOPHILUS ISA. 4.2 In that day shall the Branch of the Lord be beautiful and Glorious and the fruit of the Earth shall be Excellent and Comely for them that are escaped of Israel ISA. 53.2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender Plant and as a Root out of a dry Ground He hath no Form nor Comeliness and when we shall see him there is no Beauty that we should desire him London Printed for Jonathan Robinson at the Golden Lyon in S t. Pauls Church-Yard 1676. The Epistle Dedicatory To his much Honoured FRIEND Sir John Hartop Baronet SIR THAT which gave the Occasion of my thoughts pitching upon this subject matter viz. Christ's Manhood in Heaven was that Dispute betwixt Mr. Hicks and Mr. Pen at London concerning the same I being there present am satisfied by the Quakers fallacious management of that Discourse that they deny the same Numerical true and real Manhood of Christ in Heaven as a place remote from us Since that I have had Discourse with a Neighbour Quaker William Bates who frequently said He did not believe that the Humane Nature that which was taken by Christ of the Virgin had now any being I have three Witnesses of this whom I can produce if need be Sir I may boldly say That neither you I nor thousands more of Christians in this Nation ever thought that we should live to see that day wherein so many thousands pretending to Christianity in this Nation should be so Brazen-foreheaded as to disown Jesus of Nazareth to be the Messiah yet so it is O Tempora O Mores The Ends of the World are come upon us My Spirit being stirred within me at the hearing of this grand Fundament al Errour I thought it my duty to the Lord Jesus Christ to Antidote the poor Country as much as in me lieth against these damnable Delusions it made him speak that was dumb before when he saw his Fathers Life in danger So what Babe what Novice will want a Mouth a Tongue to speak a Hand a Pen to write when the Man Christ is struck at by ungodly Seducers Therefore I though the least and most unfit of my Brethren have Printed my Notes Preached you know at Hartford and humbly present them to you Sir as to one whom I know to be a sincere lover of the One Mediator betwixt God and Man the Man Christ Jesus and of his Evangelical Truths Pray Sir vouchsafe to read them and candidly bear with what may not be so congruously worded in so sublime a Mystery The Lord by his Spirit establish settle strengthen you in this and every Truth and preserve you and your Elect Lady both as Vessels of Honour to his heavenly Kingdom there to behold the Man Jesus Christ in his Glory which is best of all Your Servant for Jesus sake William Haworth AN ANTIDOTE Against that Poysonous Fundamental Error OF THE QUAKERS c. 1 PETER 3.22 Who is gone into Heaven and is on the Right hand of God THE Apostle Peter is here speaking of the Grounds of Comfort to the guilty Consciences One is in Vers 21. The Resurrection of Jesus Christ The answer of a good Conscience through the Resurrection of Jesus Christ He rose again for our Justification He being acquitted by the Father then His Members are acquitted now A second Proposition in order to the Answer of a good Conscience is The Ascension of Jesus Christ and his sitting at the Right-hand of God all things being made subject to him To see by Faith our Head exalted into Glory and there Advocating for us and Ruling for us is a very comfortable thing In the 18 Verse he is speaking of Christ's being put to death in the Flesh but quickned by the Spirit i.e. the Divine Power Then descends to speak of his Resurrection as the true solid Ground of the Answer of a Good Conscience and from this Resurrection descends to speak of his Ascension So then That same Jesus that was put to death in the Flesh and Raised by the Power of God from the Dead That same is gone into Heaven It 's plain then that he was put to Death in his fleshly Body and in This it was that he Rose again Why then in This is he gone into Heaven and in This is he at the Right-hand of God 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 it speaks a Motion from one Place to another a Change of the Place Now Whither went he Into Heaven Heaven is not every where as some say and so this Change is only a Change of State But Heaven is a Place where God doth manifest most of his Glory It 's called the Heaven of Heavens and the third Heaven whereunto Paul was wrapt up 2 Chron. 6.21 Hear thou from thy dwelling-Place even from Heaven It 's called here and 1 Kings 8.30 Gods Dwelling-Place John 14.2 It 's called the Fathers House In my Fathers House are many Mansions I go to prepare a Place for you And is on the Right-hand of God An Allusion to the Custom of Kings who were wont to take their Favourites and place them on their Right-hand as Solomon placed his Mother at his Right-hand And as Zebedee would have had her Sons at Christ's Right-hand in his Kingdom It is a Place of Honour Glory Power and Authority Learn this Truth from the Words That the Same Jesus Christ that was put to Death in the Flesh and did Rise with that Same Flesh again That Same Jesus in that Same Flesh and Man-hood is now in Heaven which is a Place not a State only there he is at Gods Right-hand in Power and Glory So that as to that Humane Nature he is not upon Earth I will prove this That Jesus Christ is now a true real Man in Heaven and so Is not here on Earth as he is Man That ever Jesus Christ was a true real Man some have denied and have held That it was only an Appearance or Spectrum in the shape of a Man And some are of this mind now But we will take this for granted That Christ was once here on Earth a real true Man but that he is so Now the Quakers deny A Man consists of these two Essential Parts viz.
