A90688	Heautontimoroumenos, or, The self-revenger exemplified in Mr. William Barlee. By way of rejoynder to the first part of his reply, viz. the unparallel'd variety of discourse in the two first chapters of his pretended vindication. (The second part of the rejoynder to the second part of his reply being purposely designed to follow after by it self, for reasons shortly to be alledged.) Wherein are briefly exhibited, amongst many other things, the rigidly-Presbyterian both principles and practice. A vindication of Grotius from Mr. Baxter. of Mr. Baxter from Mr. Barlee. of Episcopal divines from both together. To which is added an appendage touching the judgement of the right Honourable and right Reverend Father in God, Iames Lord primate of Armagh, and metropolitan of Ireland, irrefragably attested by the certificates of Dr. Walton, Mr. Thorndike, and Mr. Gunning, sent in a letter to Doctor Bernard. By Thomas Pierce Rector of Brington.

where my advantages are so many I must even for brevity dispense with some § 12. In his two next pages 75 76. he obtrudes upon his Reader this constant falsehood that I pretended Bishop Davenant to have been also an Arminian although he knows that I did rank him amongst Arminius his Antagonists I only pleaded his opinion of universall Redemption which as Mr. Barlee could not disprove so he durst not it seems so much as try I referred my Reader to his Pacificatory Epistle into which Mr. Barlee either would not peep or thought not safe for his interest to take any notice of what he saw He cites other words which were not referred to by me and which as they are not to the purpose in any kind so if they were they would serve exactly for my Advantage by shewing that that Bishop had changed his judgement from what it once was I did not speak of every part of his life but meerly of that wherein he writ to Duraeus which with his Adhortation to Ecclesiasticall Peace was printed at Cambridge 1640. no more then two years before his Death Yet Mr. B. to serve his turn affirmeth this to be the second edition and that a Chaplain of the Bishops did set out a third 1638. two years before the second in Mr. B's account Would not he make an omnipotent Lawyer who to salve a crack't Title in his clients Tenure can prove that Harry the eighth was before Harry the seventh This is his first contradiction about the works of Bishop Davenant His second contradiction is more ridiculous because attended with a pompous parenthesis of commendation For whereas he saith it is much more considerable that the Bishops Animadversions against Mr. Hoard was under the Bishops own hand published three years after the last printed Edition of his Pacificatory to Duraeus and whereas he saith also but few lines before that the Bishop dyed in the year 1642. and whereas it is evident to all the world who will but look that the Cambridge edition of that Epistle was in the year 1640. all the reasoning of Mr. B. amounts to this that the Bishop lived at least a year after his Death vvhich is somevvhat longer then St. Dlonysius is said to do in the Golden Legend Or at least he must say to avoid that absurdity that there vvere then three years betvvixt 40. and 42. nay betvvixt 40. and 41. for he saith in his margin that the Animadversions against Mr. Hoard vvere printed A. D. 1641. If he shall novv pretend ignorance in the Bishops works and their Editions vvhy vvould he speak at a venture of vvhat he knew not but if he shall say he vvell knew vvhat he said vvhy vvould he wilfully defile his conscience The reason of it is very plain For having resolved to accuse me of a notorious mistake if not somewhat worse they are his vvords he knevv not hovv to make it out but by saying such things as unavoidably implyed those contradictions vvhich either he did not perceive himself or hoped that I should not be able to perceive or that at least I vvould keep his counsell vvithout his having told me it vvas a secret 2. Now we are taught what to think of his other storyes that he was more then ordinarily acquainted with that Bishop almost to the very last moment of his life and that the Bishop did once in private sadly bewail to Mr. Barlee the great growth of Popery and Arminianism p. 75. and that the Bishop did write a letter to him in folio about the ceremony of the Crosse in Baptism p. 76. All this is possible though unlikely and not at all to the purpose And had another man said it or Mr. B. himself before he made us all to know the strength and plenty of his invention I should have readily believed that so charitable a Prelate might write a letter of instruction to one who stood in need of it and might shew him his bounden duty to use the signe of the Crosse in baptizing Infants But he hath brought his conceptions to so fair a market that he must now affirm nothing if he intends to be believed unlesse he is as ready to bring his proof Numa pretended to hold intelligence with Egeria and Minos with Iupiter and Scipio with the same and Sertorius with his inspired Doe and Eumenes with the Ghost of Alexander the Great and Mahomet with Gabriel one of the seven Arch-Angels and Mr. Barlee with learned Davenant one of the Angels of the Church of England 3. Though Mr. B. pretendeth some kind of Reverence to the Bishop yet he declaredly dissents from his Doctrin of Christ's Death as he professed to do from that of Amyrald p. 72. He confessed that Bishop Davenant and Dr. Ward did extend the phrase of Christs Dying for all not only generibus singulorum to all sorts of men but also singulis generum to every man of all sorts But he will sue out a writ of melius inquirendum before he passeth any damnatory sentence upon them because they have so many handsome orthodox put-off● This is Rare That Bishop must be reprieved though he speakes as I doe and I must be condemn'd as the enemy of God although I spake as the Bishop did What is the reason The Bishop hath his put-offs and I have none What is this but to say in effect and substance that the venerable Bishop did tack about he stood out in such a manner from Mr. Barlee as that in a manner he came in he had handsome subterfuges and orthodox shifts whilst Mr. Pierce doth assert the same Doctrin with the Bishop and all that follows thereupon by unavoidable consequence without the least fear of displeasing the implacable and so without making use of any orthodox Tricks or syncretizing Terg●versations for the keeping of their favours and acts of Grace Thus he abuseth that excellent Prelate to whose favour he oweth his admission into the Priesthood though he doth not abuse the orthodox●a of his party to which that Prelate was so averse whilst he ingeniously placeth it in handsome evasions and put-offs 4. But sure the Bishop will incur a great deal more of his displeasure by that time I have shewed him one famous passage The Bishop thought that St. Paul in his words to Titus ch 1. v. 3. had a particular respect to the Apostles Creed in which are comprehended the fundamentalls of Christianity to be believed by all Christians to wit the creation of all creatures out of nothing the mystery of the Trinity the benefit of Christ Incarnate Crucified rising from the dead and Glorified bestowed upon miserable and wretched sinners and as fundamentals derived thence the Redemption of Mankind the Sanctification of a peculiar people the Communion of Saints the forgivenesse of sins the Resurrection of bodyes and the Glorification of the Faithfull All these things saith the Bishop are comprehended in this short Creed He that detracteth or

though in respect of the end Christ dyed intentionally for all yet in respect of the event he dyed effectually for the elect only 7. I agree to the reason which the Primate gives why so many are damned forwhom Christ dyed with such a merciful and pure intention even because they refused what was sincerely prepared for them sincerely offered to them sincerely intended to do them good and not harm but they had no will to take it they would not come when invited they intended not to take the benefit offered Arich price was put into the hands of a fool howsoever he had no heart to use it Prov. 17. 16. He was not disposed to take the benefit of it 8. I agree also in this p. 12. and 13. That they who miss of the Redemption which was purchased by Christ which lay open to them and to which they were invited had not been excluded from it had they had a mind to accept of it and would they have listened to the motion of it when a true tender of it was made by Gods Embassadours And for the reason of this I give the old maxime Nemo tenetur ad impossibile or to express it with Bishop Davenant Impossibilium nulla est obligatio The Tender is not true nor the intention sincere in him that offers if he who must be damned for not accepting is not allowed so much as a possibility to accept And therefore 9. I agree with the Primate in what he saith p. 16. That in respect of Christs mercy he may be counted a kind of universal Cause of the restoring of our nature as Adam was of the depraving of it Now that the Cause doth not take its particular effects in the impenitent is not because it is no cause nor because it is not universal but because of the impenitency in them that perish It s universality is very perfect it being in the second Adam as in the first the Virgin Mary is not excluded from her share in the first no more then Iudas the son of perdition from his share in the second 10. I agree to that part of the Primates Doctrine p. 22. that forgiveness of sins is not by our Saviour impetrated for any unto whom the merit of his death is not applyed in particular 11. I agree with the Primate that Mr. Amesinclined too much unto the other extremity p. 23. that the Arminians drove the Calvinists or Anti-Arminians unto this extreme Absurdity to say that the greatest part of mankind were bound in Duty to believe a lye p. 24 25 26 27. and that as Mr. Culverwell so any man else would flye rather into any error then yield that Christ in no manner of wayes dyed for any Reprobate and that none but the elect had any kind of Title to him p. 26. Nor do I mean only a bare sufficiency for the Reprobate in the Death of Christ For 12. I agree with the Primate that to preach a bare sufficiency cannot yield sufficient comfort to a distressed soul without giving a further way to it p. 31. And let the distressed soul be what he will he is not bound to believe a lye any more then Barnabas is bound to preach one And to demonstrate that the Primate doth mean exactly in his writing as I did in mine he doth illustrate his meaning by the very same case and that in a way as extraordinary as if he or I or both together had been purposely overruled by the providence of God to stop the mouth of our Correptory Corrector I pray Sir compare the 32. page of the Primates judgement with ch 3. p. 96. of my Div. Philan defended and you will find the King of Spain in both those places shewing the folly of those men who say that Christ did dye sufficiently for all but not intentionally unless for the elect You cannot easily imagine how much contentment I have taken in this concurrence of our minds either by miracle or by chance or I know not how else Nay 13. I agree with the Primate in the point of Application p. 11. if it is so understood as that it may be reconcileable with p. 6. and 8. and 10. and so it will be very happily by being understood of Gods giving grace to believe and perform the condition which is Gods proper way of applying the Remedy unto us and our making good use of that Talent of grace which is our way through grace of applying the remedy unto our selves that as in the offer it is general so it may be particular in the acceptation And that this is his Lordships meaning as well as mine I find demonstrated by himself p. 39 40. No mans state is so desperate but by this means it is recoverable and this is the first comfortable news that the Gospel brings to the distressed soul but here it resteth not nor feedeth a man with a bare possibility but it brings the word of comfort nigh unto him even to his mouth and heart and presents him with the medicine at hand and desireth him to take it which being done accordingly the cure is actually performed but otherwise not if he will not take it at Gods intreaty The medicine then remains in its bare aptitudinality and doth not actually cure him What is the reason because there is not a concurrence of the mans desire unto his Makers because he submitteth not his will to the merciful will of his Redeemer according to that of our blessed Lord How often would I and ye would not Thus have I given you a parallel of our concurrences in opinion as to the matter in hand And I have done it so much the rather because you say very piously that if you were mistaken in me you will be ready to acknowledge it to my advantage You did not probably judge of me by what you found in my writings but by what you heard from byast men Be pleased therefore to reflect upon some passages in your Letters to M. Barlee as p. 52. l. 2. where you seemingly imply me to have said that the Bishop was wholly for Arminius whereas I did not onely not say it but I said he was not so and lin 8. where you place his judgement in this point in a middle way different both from mine and Mr. Bs. without shewing what it is in which the Primate and I do differ but leaving the Reader to imagine that I do differ from him as much as Mr. Barlee next p. 58. where you imply me to have intimated the Primates penitency of his sins which as I never meant in the place you allude to so my words have quite another sound with them and import the contrary Again p. 65. you clearly imply me to make no difference betwixt the grace given to Iudas and that to Peter although you say a little after you do not affix thus much upon my judgement The Primate might be changed yet not to that pitch Again p. 61 69
