A30025 A short view of the Antinomian errours with a briefe and plaine answer to them, as the heads of them lye in order in the next page of this book : being a nest of cursed errors hatched by hereticks, fed and nourished by their proselites : being taken as they were flying abroad were brought as the eagle doth her young ones to see if they could endure to looke upon the sun-beams of truth with fixed eyes, the which they could not : were presently adjudged to be a bastard brood, and their necks chopt off, and their carkasses throwne to the dunghill. Bakewell, Thomas, b. 1618 or 19. 1643 (1643) Wing B537; ESTC R38704 43,620 40

for_o the_o pardon_n of_o his_o sin_n be_v like_o a_o man_n affright_v with_o sin_n and_o at_o the_o same_o time_n give_v thanks_n for_o the_o r●mision_n of_o sin_n and_o of_o a_o man_n that_o be_v

to_o be_v humble_v for_o our_o filthiness_n for_o want_v of_o sanctification_n when_o we_o come_v into_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n and_o because_o that_o sin_n be_v in_o we_o we_o may_v well_o

our_o eye_n of_o faith_n be_v never_o so_o clear_a to_o see_v our_o duty_n yet_o if_o we_o will_v not_o look_v upon_o the_o la_o of_o god_n but_o count_v it_o as_o a_o strange_a thing_n hosea_n 8.12_o it_o be_v all_o one_o to_o they_o as_o if_o the_o book_n of_o the_o law_n be_v seal_v up_o and_o he_o that_o have_v no_o faith_n be_v like_o a_o man_n to_o who_o the_o book_n of_o the_o law_n be_v

because_o it_o be_v their_o duty_n and_o what_o if_o he_o know_v it_o before_o he_o need_v not_o be_v offend_v at_o the_o love_n of_o his_o friend_n for_o tell_v he_o that_o which_o he_o know_v

again_o we_o trust_v in_o no_o duty_n as_o cause_n of_o our_o salvation_n but_o we_o obey_v and_o do_v these_o duty_n as_o the_o way_n to_o salvation_n neither_o do_v they_o ever_o hear_v those_o

he_o humble_v himself_o and_o free_o yield_v to_o the_o command_a power_n of_o the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o count_v it_o his_o duty_n to_o give_v all_o the_o power_n of_o body_n and_o soul_n in_o

as_o by_o mark_n and_o sign_n of_o grace_n within_o i_o answer_v if_o christ_n be_v in_o the_o soul_n there_o must_v needs_o be_v figne_n of_o his_o presence_n we_o need_v not_o go_v by_o hearsay_n
