A49183	An apology for the ministers who subscribed only unto the stating of the truths and errours in Mr. William's book shewing, that the Gospel which they preach, is the old everlasting Gospel of Christ, and vindicating them from the calumnies, wherewith they (especially the younger sort of them) have been unjustly aspersed by the letter from a minister in the city, to a minister in the countrey.	Lorimer, William, d. 1721.	1694 (1694)	Wing L3073; ESTC R22599	321,667	222

usurpation_n over_o the_o body_n and_o soul_n of_o man_n and_o the_o ultimate_a end_n of_o they_o all_o be_v to_o set_v up_o god_n kingdom_n among_o man_n and_o to_o destroy_v satan_n kingdom_n therefore_o the_o devil_n can_v not_o possible_o be_v the_o author_n of_o christ_n miracle_n since_o they_o be_v direct_o contrary_a to_o his_o nature_n and_o destructive_a of_o his_o kingdom_n and_o interest_n in_o the_o world_n the_o consequence_n be_v evident_a because_o if_o the_o devil_n be_v suppose_v to_o do_v such_o miracle_n so_o circumstantiate_v he_o be_v and_o must_v be_v ipso_fw-la facto_fw-la suppose_v to_o be_v a_o silly_a weak_a prince_n that_o for_o want_v of_o a_o politic_a head_n and_o ambitious_a heart_n act_v quite_o contrary_a unto_o his_o own_o nature_n and_o do_v what_o he_o can_v to_o destroy_v his_o own_o kingdom_n and_o interest_n in_o the_o world_n but_o the_o devil_n can_v be_v suppose_v to_o be_v a_o silly_a weak_a prince_n who_o so_o act_v for_o want_n of_o policy_n and_o pride_n such_o a_o supposition_n be_v evident_o false_a and_o self-contradictious_a for_o the_o devil_n be_v a_o most_o politic_a proud_a spirit_n that_o be_v his_o very_a nature_n as_o he_o be_v a_o devil_n and_o his_o politic_a proud_a nature_n always_o act_v like_o itself_o and_o ever_o prompt_v he_o to_o defend_v maintain_v and_o propagate_v his_o kingdom_n and_o interest_n among_o men._n therefore_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o the_o devil_n shall_v be_v the_o author_n of_o such_o miracle_n as_o be_v so_o contrary_a to_o his_o nature_n and_o destructive_a of_o his_o kingdom_n and_o interest_n among_o man_n since_o it_o can_v be_v that_o such_o a_o politic_a ambitious_a spirit_n as_o the_o devil_n be_v shall_v be_v so_o silly_a as_o to_o make_v war_n upon_o his_o own_o subject_n pull_v down_o his_o own_o kingdom_n and_o take_v the_o crown_n from_o his_o own_o and_o set_v it_o on_o another_o head_n this_o be_v our_o lord_n argument_n whereby_o he_o prove_v
