A76101	The arrovv of the Almighty shot out of the creatures bowe, against the uncalled ministers in England. Or, A messages sent to them to forewarn them of their determined destruction, before it fall upon them. Likewise here is shewed, from whence they had their calling into the ministery; and how all people have been decieved by them. Here is also a glass wherein all formalists may see their own deformity, and so seek after that which is the substance, wherein all their deformity shall be done away. Likewise here is opened the mystery of the Lords Supper, and the mystery in Baptism; and how there is a threefold Baptism, having relation to the three fold name of Father, Son, and Holy Ghost; with other truths very needful to be known. All of them being laid down in as brief a manner as possiblemay be, for the use and instruction of the Presbyterians, Independants, and Anabaptists, so called; or for the good of all others who have a minde to seek God in a right way; and in the conclusion, a word to the free-gracians.

seat_n viz._n to_o read_v the_o law_n to_o the_o people_n and_o to_o offer_v the_o gift_n and_o sacrifice_n and_o have_v the_o work_n of_o minister_a in_o the_o temple_n they_o be_v all_o of_o the_o

numb_a 8.14_o and_o so_o long_o as_o the_o law_n of_o ordinance_n be_v in_o force_n christ_n will_v have_v they_o observe_v because_o they_o all_o be_v shadow_n of_o and_o point_v at_o himself_o and_o the_o read_n of_o the_o law_n can_v not_o be_v hear_v but_o by_o the_o scribe_n who_o be_v of_o the_o tribe_n of_o levi_n and_o as_o christ_n be_v in_o the_o flesh_n the_o law_n be_v not_o end_v neither_o the_o succession_n of_o the_o minister_n and_o as_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n do_v hold_v out_o christ_n mystical_o so_o christ_n bare_a witness_n to_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o law_n ceremonial_o and_o what_o be_v a_o ordinance_n of_o god_n and_o that_o ordinance_n be_v in_o force_n that_o will_v christ_n have_v observe_v and_o in_o this_o case_n he_o bid_v the_o leper_n go_v and_o show_v themselves_o to_o the_o priest_n and_o offer_v to_o they_o what_o the_o law_n require_v for_o their_o be_v cleanse_v luke_n 17.14_o and_o in_o this_o case_n he_o cause_v peter_n to_o

that_o he_o have_v not_o sin_v and_o all_o those_o thing_n contain_v in_o the_o ordinance_n he_o will_v have_v all_o the_o people_n to_o observe_v to_o the_o utmost_a until_o the_o time_n that_o all_o shall_v be_v fulfil_v by_o his_o death_n and_o resurrection_n and_o the_o priest_n of_o the_o law_n be_v still_o to_o be_v hear_v in_o read_v and_o give_v out_o admonition_n according_a to_o its_o require_v as_o moses_n oft_o time_n do_v unto_o the_o people_n in_o his_o day_n but_o now_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n have_v not_o the_o same_o call_n into_o the_o ministry_n as_o we_o may_v see_v by_o christ_n himself_o for_o he_o choose_v not_o any_o of_o the_o tribe_n of_o levi_n to_o be_v promulgater_n of_o the_o gospel_n neither_o any_o great_a learned_a man_n but_o a_o few_o

greatness_n of_o scholarship_n but_o those_o be_v to_o be_v the_o minister_n who_o be_v call_v of_o god_n and_o who_o have_v receive_v the_o gift_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o who_o have_v partake_v of_o the_o divine_a nature_n by_o which_o they_o have_v fellowship_n with_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n and_o have_v the_o mystery_n of_o god_n make_v know_v to_o they_o and_o manifest_v in_o they_o and_o what_o they_o have_v hear_v and_o see_v that_o they_o declare_v to_o other_o 1_o jo._n 1.1_o 2._o and_o these_o have_v learn_v the_o voice_n of_o christ_n and_o these_o can_v speak_v with_o the_o voice_n of_o christ_n and_o none_o other_o know_v his_o voice_n and_o whosoever_o come_v to_o the_o ministry_n otherwise_o they_o be_v but_o thief_n and_o there_o be_v no_o engagement_n upon_o any_o to_o hear_v they_o but_o rather_o to_o refrain_v from_o they_o for_o as_o for_o the_o scribe_n it_o be_v evident_a in_o scripture_n they_o have_v their_o call_n into_o the_o priesthood_n by_o god_n own_o appointment_n and_o so_o by_o his_o appointment_n they_o be_v to_o have_v it_o by_o succession_n whether_o they_o be_v upright_a man_n or_o not_o as_o be_v aforesaid_a but_o for_o your_o priest_n they_o can_v plead_v succession_n neither_o can_v they_o show_v any_o calling_n they_o have_v at_o all_o but_o what_o be_v ordain_v by_o man_n and_o so_o they_o be_v no_o more_o but_o minister_n make_v and_o send_v out_o by_o man_n and_o therefore_o as_o they_o be_v but_o the_o minister_n of_o man_n you_o have_v no_o command_n to_o hear_v they_o and_o as_o they_o want_v the_o call_n of_o and_o by_o god_n the_o which_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n have_v that_o say_n of_o christ_n do_v nothing_o belong_v to_o you_o either_o by_o command_n or_o example_n whereby_o you_o be_v at_o all_o engage_v to_o hear_v those_o your_o unsent_a priest_n but_o if_o any_o of_o they_o can_v prove_v it_o that_o god_n command_v to_o make_v university_n and_o that_o those_o who_o he_o will_v choose_v to_o speak_v in_o his_o name_n and_o declare_v his_o will_n and_o mind_n unto_o other_o shall_v be_v put_v so_o many_o year_n to_o that_o university_n and_o then_o to_o be_v confirm_v by_o a_o bishop_n or_o a_o presbytery_n and_o then_o shall_v they_o be_v fit_a man_n for_o his_o work_n i_o say_v if_o any_o of_o they_o can_v prove_v this_o though_o they_o be_v never_o so_o wicked_a i_o will_v have_v you_o to_o hear_v they_o if_o they_o speak_v any_o thing_n that_o be_v but_o like_o truth_n but_o this_o i_o know_v they_o can_v prove_v and_o therefore_o as_o they_o have_v no_o call_n of_o god_n you_o ought_v not_o to_o hear_v they_o for_o in_o hear_v they_o you_o countenance_v they_o and_o uphold_v they_o contrary_a to_o the_o mind_n and_o will_n of_o
